Cultivating Immortality in a World of Chaos - Chapter 65

[Chapter 65: Eternal Youth (Congratulations to Hanyu for becoming the leader of the Xiangluan Alliance!)]

“Everything?”

Fang Xi originally planned to buy two bottles of “Muyuan Dan” and leave.

But after hearing Song Qing’s arrogant tone, he couldn’t help but ask, “Is there any spiritual object or secret method to improve the aptitude of wood spiritual roots?”

The smug expression on Song Qing’s face froze for a moment, and then he thought about it seriously and asked, “Does Fellow Daoist Fang have a wood-attributed spiritual root?”

“Exactly!”

Fang Xi’s heart moved. Could it really be true?

“Haha, isn’t this a coincidence?”

Song Qing clapped his hands and said, “I really have what you are looking for!”

“Fellow Daoist Song, are you trying to make fun of me?” Fang Xi looked at the other person suspiciously.

Could it be that he was short-sighted before, and improving his aptitude is actually a very simple thing in the world of immortal cultivation in the Southern Wilderness?

“In fact, once I tell you this method, you will definitely know it is true, which is…” Song Qing did not keep it a secret and said directly: “All you need is a wood-type spirit body!”

If Fang Xi hadn’t drunk the spiritual tea, his saliva would have sprayed all over Song Qing’s face.

“Ahem… I am not a cultivator with a spiritual body, not even a hidden one!”

Fang Xi can be very sure of this.

“Haha… who says that spirit bodies must be born naturally?” Song Qing laughed: “There are countless extraordinary skills and secret methods in the world of immortal cultivation. It is not impossible to cultivate into a special spirit body after birth!”

At this moment, Fang Xi’s heart was pounding!

But the next moment, he regained his composure and said with a wry smile: “Even if there is, I can’t guarantee its authenticity, and… I probably can’t afford it.”

Although the temptation is great, Fang Xi knows one thing: there is no free lunch in the world!

As long as you don’t gamble, you will never lose!
“Haha… I can swear an oath to my inner demon that this secret method is absolutely true.”

Song Qing seemed to have anticipated Fang Xi’s reaction, and said with a smile: “Daoyou, why don’t you listen first… This secret technique is actually closely related to the Qingzhu Mountain Market and the Situ family. Have you ever heard of the secret realm of Ziyou Mountain?”

Fang Xi’s heart was moved: “This secret realm is very famous. It is said that it was divided between the Situ family and the Red Leaf Valley, and then the two families were destroyed because of it!”

“That’s right!” Song Qing clapped his hands and said with a smile, “This secret technique was obtained by my Song family from the treasure house of the Situ family. According to the information obtained from searching the souls of the captives, it came from the secret realm of Ziyou Mountain! It’s a pity… This secret technique is only suitable for cultivators who practice wood-attributed techniques, and the conditions are a bit harsh. Otherwise, my family would never sell it.”

As he spoke, he took out a lush green jade slip from his storage bag with a talisman attached to it.

Fang Xi did not hide the burning gaze in his eyes: “Is this the jade slip from the Situ family’s treasure house?”

“Of course not, it’s just a replica, but it’s branded with magic, so it’s guaranteed to be exactly the same as the original!”

In order to ensure this, Song Qing actually made a vow to guarantee that the goods were genuine.

Anyone who practices Taoism is likely to encounter inner demons, especially when they are emotionally excited or making a breakthrough to a high level, which can be very harmful.

This young man Song Ji Qingqing is in the late stage of Qi Refining, and with his own path as a guarantee, it is still somewhat credible.

Fang Xi sneered: “Medicine, talismans and magic tools are all used one by one…but the skills can be copied infinitely. The shopkeeper is really good at calculating.”

“You have wronged me, my friend. There are only a few copies of this in our family, and we will never sell more.”

Song Qing pushed the jade slip over with a determined look on his face: “There are restrictions on this jade slip, and you can only view a small part of it.”

This is what should be expected when purchasing items related to cultivation techniques. Otherwise, with the cultivator’s memory, he might remember everything after just reading it a few times.

Fang Xi took it and placed the jade slip on his forehead.

“The art of longevity!”

He soon saw the name of this secret technique.

Looking at the introduction again, I found that a lot of things were covered up, but I can still make out that it is mainly about cultivating spiritual plants, absorbing the essence of plants and trees, etc…. It is indeed a method of cultivating an acquired spiritual body!

“It’s actually true.”

Fang Xi was shocked. He put down the jade slip and looked at Song Qing again: “I wonder how much this secret method of ‘longevity’ costs?”

“Haha, it’s not expensive, just 500 spirit stones.” Song Qing smiled and said, “If you don’t have enough spirit stones, I will also accept various spirit objects as collateral.”

At this moment, it seemed that his true intentions were finally revealed!

Fang Xi hesitated for a long time before he gritted his teeth and took out a storage bag. He reached out and flicked it, and pieces of monster leather suddenly emerged.

“Material for monsters?”

Song Qing’s eyes lit up, and he quickly identified it: “A first-level mid-grade demon wolf skin, well preserved… What kind of demon beast is this? I have never seen it before, but it is also a first-level mid-grade… The demon wolf’s fangs are a little damaged…”

Fang Xi emptied two storage bags in succession. Fortunately, he had visited Fatty Han before and got a lot of monster materials, otherwise he would not have been able to gather so many.

In the end, a total of more than two hundred spirit stones were sold.

Adding these to the proceeds from selling the Golden Spike Pills, plus the more than one hundred spirit stones that Fang Xi already had, he finally managed to collect five hundred spirit stones.

Song Qing also drafted the contract solemnly, in duplicate, and waited until both parties had imprinted their magic power before he said with a smile:
“Fellow Daoist Fang, the money and goods are settled!”

He collected all the spirit stones, chanted a secret spell, and with a flash of light on his hand, he tore open the talisman on the jade slip.

This is a special prohibition. If you don’t follow specific steps, it will inevitably self-destruct!

However, there seemed to be a different meaning in Song Qing’s smile.

Fang Xi’s heart sank when he saw this, but to him, the monster materials were worthless. He just spent some spirit stones to buy a possibility.

At this time, he picked up the emerald green jade slip and placed it on his forehead.

Soon, his face turned blue and red, and his eyes were bloodshot.

Bang!
Fang Xi slammed the table heavily, his eyes bloodshot, “Mr. Song…you are trying to trick me?!”

“What do you mean, fellow Daoist?” Song Qing had anticipated this and dodged a distance, smiling and saying, “I have sworn by my inner demon. Isn’t the secret method introduced in this jade slip a method for cultivating an acquired spiritual body?”

Read the error-free version on 6Ⅹ9Ⅹ bookⅩ bar! 6Ⅹ9 book bar first publishes a novel.

“But…but this is fucking…”

Fang Xi stood up, as if he was about to fight if they didn’t agree, but then he sneered and said, “This heavenly and earthly spiritual root, and the time-consuming conditions, are really very demanding!”

Song Qing was a little surprised to see Fang Xi actually controlled his anger.

“Fellow Daoist, aren’t you afraid of damaging the reputation of Wanhai Tower by doing this?” Fang Xi said with a slightly pale face.

“Didn’t you read this contract, fellow Daoist? I sold you the acquired spiritual body cultivation method for 500 spirit stones. You are definitely getting a great deal. What’s wrong with that? I didn’t force you to buy or sell. You took the initiative to come up to me!”

Song Qing sneered in response: “If you don’t have any real evidence and are trying to ruin the reputation of Wanhai Tower, my Song family is not a pushover!”

He deliberately emphasized the word “Song family”!
“I’ve suffered this loss… I wonder if the shopkeeper can return some spirit stones to me, a hundred pieces would be fine!”

Fang Xi’s expression kept changing, as if he had opened a dye shop. Finally, he forced a smile and bowed pitifully to beg.

“hehe……”

Song Qing’s expression was as cold as an iceberg: “Guest…you should leave now.”

He had nothing to fear, after all, the defense of Wanhai Tower was at least level two!

“Okay, the mountains remain green and the water flows forever, we will meet again!”

Fang Xi stood up in a distraught manner and walked out of Wanhai Tower.

His steps became faster and faster, and in the blink of an eye he was lost in the crowd.

After changing directions several times and changing his appearance several times, Fang Xi finally let out a long sigh after confirming that no one was following him.

Stroking the storage bag, his spiritual consciousness sensed the emerald green jade slip inside it. He tried hard to control his facial muscles so as not to laugh out loud.

The ‘longevity technique’ is indeed a scam!
According to this secret technique, if you want to cultivate a spiritual body after birth, you naturally need extremely harsh conditions.

Let’s not talk about the wood attribute spiritual root. The real harshness of it is that it requires a sacrifice of a ‘heaven and earth spiritual root’ as a basis, and it is refined into the cultivator’s ‘natal spiritual plant’!
Then, through the continuous cultivation of the natal spiritual plant, it can absorb the essence of the plants and trees, the power of the sun and moon rings, and temper the cultivator’s own wood attribute acquired spiritual body!
This so-called ‘heaven and earth spiritual root’ is best made of rare treasures of heaven and earth, and at least the third-level spiritual plants are barely suitable. For Qi-refining cultivators, it is naturally a pit!

Not only that, spiritual plants also need suitable spiritual veins to grow!

In other words, you need a piece of land with at least a third-level spiritual vein to plant your spiritual roots before you can practice!
And this is not the most tricky part of the “Longevity Technique”!

The most annoying thing is that when practicing this spell, the cultivator cannot be too far away from his natal spirit plant. He must stay with it for many years to be effective. Once he leaves for too long, the practice will fail immediately!
And the time is often calculated in hundreds of years!

“A hundred-year-old green wood spirit body, a thousand-year-old Yi wood Dharma body, and a ten-thousand-year-old evergreen body, which is the ‘eternal life body’ that can become an immortal according to rumors!”

“This cultivation method is really…”

To be honest, Fang Xi felt speechless when he saw it.

Even the lowest level Green Wood Spirit Body requires a spiritual root of at least the third level, and must be rooted in a third level spiritual land for a hundred years of cultivation, during which time the cultivator cannot leave!

“The third-level spiritual vein land is probably only found in Xuantian Sect in the entire Yue Kingdom, right?”

“Even if all these problems are solved, it would take me a hundred years to cultivate a spiritual body. I would have died of old age long ago!”

“Not to mention Yimu Dharmakaya, I’m afraid only the Jindan ancestors or even Yuanying Zhenjun have enough lifespan to try it once or twice? But since they can all form Dan and Yuanying, their spiritual roots must be extraordinary, and they may have even awakened their innate spiritual bodies long ago. Why would they cultivate to break the acquired spiritual body?”

“This is just a piece of crap! It’s superfluous!”

“Although it is mentioned later that some special spiritual liquids can be prepared to promote the growth of spiritual plants, the price is huge… Especially the highest-level ‘creation spiritual liquid’. It is said that one drop can make a spiritual plant grow for a hundred years instantly, but I have never heard of this thing! Maybe it can be found in the fairy world, but it is very likely that it does not exist in the Southern Wilderness Immortal Cultivation World!”

Song Qing from Wanhai Tower clearly wanted to use this immortality technique to cheat people out of spirit stones!
But Fang Xi still let him cheat her!

Because he suddenly remembered the ‘demon tree’ in Black Stone City!
