Jiang Li, who had already had experience once before, passed through the place where the five Nascent Souls were again, and this time it was obviously much smoother.
After returning to the place where he had fallen before, Jiang Li stepped on the air repeatedly and went up along the small passage. He soon encountered the Five Elements Formation that blocked his way.
The token given to him by Master Wei Feng did not have sufficient authority and could not take effect here.
The Shushan Earth Spirit was still wailing in his Qi Sea at this time. Without the local snake to help him open the door, the question became, how could he pass through this indestructible Five Elements Formation and get back up there?
It was obviously not reliable to smash it with fists. The demon-suppressing tower connected to the earth veins could not be broken even by Yuanying cultivators. Jiang Li probably couldn't break it even if he died of exhaustion here. Although he wouldn't be exhausted to death.
So, besides brute force cracking, is there any way to get through here? The answer is yes.
The old man Di Ling has been secretly eroding the formations in the Demon Suppressing Tower for thousands of years. Although he has not been able to accumulate the power to take revenge on Shushan, it is enough for him to open a few small back doors in the Demon Suppressing Tower.
After all, according to the original plan, after he snatched Jiang Li's body, he had to find a way out.
With a flesh and blood body, he can no longer appear and disappear like a spirit, and it will be more difficult for him to perform escape techniques, so the back door he left behind must be very big.
Jiang Li, who has obtained the body of earth spirit, although he has no earth attribute spiritual roots and has never practiced earth attribute exercises, can still rely on this physique to perform simple earth escape.
What he needs to do now is to find a gap that allows him to escape.
The majestic Five Elements Peak of Shu Mountain was reflected in Jiang Li's eyes, and the flow of the earth's power became clear in his vision.
It is hard to say how much this earth spirit body has increased Jiang Li's strength. The greatest help it has given him is in the area of rune formations.
In today's Dachongshan world of immortal cultivation, what kind of formation is recognized as the most powerful?
It is similar to the Five Elements Peak of Shu Mountain and the Misty Mountains, a large formation created by combining mountains, rivers and lakes and borrowing the power of heaven and earth.
With his talent in rune formations, coupled with the pair of eyes that can see the flow of earth veins, this will undoubtedly make his formations seem like a cheat.
Compared to others, he needs to make detailed measurements and calculations to roughly guess the direction of the flow of the earth veins, and then carefully set up the formation bit by bit.
Jiang Li, however, could clearly see the earth veins and even extract and modify them directly. The advantages and conveniences he could obtain when setting up a large-scale formation were simply indescribable.
Soon, from the intricate array patterns of the Five Elements Array, Jiang Li discovered that in this earth module, there was a vein of earth power that was different from the others. It was several times thicker than other veins of earth power, and its flow direction was completely opposite.
Jiang Li's eyes lit up. This was the only way out.
He stretched out his hand and pressed the node, and the power of the earth veins that came from the same source as his body slowly seeped into it, and along the direction of the array pattern, his own power seeped in bit by bit.
Then, the earth escape skill that came with the earth spirit body was activated, and his body slowly squeezed into the reverse-flowing array pattern like squeezing toothpaste.
Following the flow of the earth power, he shuttled through the five elements array, and the scenes he perceived were bizarre and strange.
A moment later, a head emerged from the other side of the Five Elements Formation, followed by the entire body, which squeezed out little by little.
After all, Jiang Li had never practiced earth escape and did not have any earth-attributed spiritual roots, so he could not escape instantly like Shen Ruoshi from Tiandi Hall by relying on a thin layer of soil.
He took advantage of the power of the earth's veins to escape through the earth, but the process was very difficult.
Forget about using it to fight with others, it might be enough to just crawl through a crack in the ground.
It took him more than a minute to successfully squeeze through the barrier of the formation and reach the seventh floor.
But once you find the method, the rest will be easy.
Relying on this back door, Jiang Li returned to the fifth floor after connecting to two floors again. On the golden tower statue in the outside world, the fake red dot originally stayed on the cushion in front of the tower monument.
Now Jiang Li came up and moved around a few times, and the red dot coincided with where his real body was, and there was no obvious flaw anymore.
From here on, he can use the token and go up openly.
Finally returning to the ground, he was greeted by a moment of astonishment.
Jiang Li was stunned for a moment, and when he saw the golden projection of the Demon-Suppressing Tower not far away, his heart began to beat fast.
He wondered if this demon-suppressing tower had a positioning function? Then wouldn't his whereabouts down there be clearly seen?
He didn't dare to speak for a moment.
Fortunately, Shenshan Qiuhua's words made him put his heart at ease.
"Brother Jiang Li, you are so amazing. You actually made it to the fifth floor of the Demon Suppression Tower! That is something that no disciple of Shushan has been able to do in hundreds of years!"
Did they only find out that I had reached the fifth floor? Jiang Li breathed a sigh of relief without leaving any trace, and instantly understood in his heart that the old man must have made preparations in advance to prevent himself from being exposed.
The other sword-cultivating disciples on the side all complimented him, but Jiang Li modestly just said that he was a good person.
"Jiang Li, you have extraordinary talent. The last person who could do this was our contemporary sword master, Shenshan Jianyi."
When Jiang Li heard the name, she glanced at Shenshan Qiuhua, who was her grandfather.
There was admiration flashing in Shenshan Qiuhua's eyes at this moment. In her eyes, being able to do the same things as her grandfather did, wouldn't that mean she was as awesome as her grandfather?
Originally, there was no standard for the number of floors in a tower, but with a great predecessor as a comparison, it’s a different story.
The Sword Master of Shushan is the most powerful fighter in Dachongshan.
Jiang Li did the same thing as the other party, does that also mean that in the future, he will also stand at the top of the Dazhongshan cultivation world like Shenshan Jianyi?
I just don't know what their expressions would be if they knew that Jiang Li had actually reached the eighth floor and obtained the spiritual charm of all nine floors? After the trial of the Demon Suppression Tower, these ten Shushan disciples still had to start building their foundation.
Master Wei Feng naturally tried his best to invite Jiang Li to join them in building the foundation in the Shushan Secret Realm.
But Jiang Li firmly refused.
He already had his own plans for where to build his foundation.
. . . . .
Riding the wooden dragon Likongzuo, Jiang Li left Shushan and flew high in the sky until he could no longer see the towering Five Elements Peak behind him.
He patted the wooden dragon under him, and Rayquaza immediately understood. It turned its head and crashed into a cloud next to it, and then the huge wooden dragon disappeared.
In that cloud, Jiuyou's clone had been waiting there for a long time.
The burial coffin was swelling, and Jiang Li rode on the wooden dragon and dived into the coffin.
After receiving the blessing of the earth veins, everything in his body, which was already full but at its limit, began to stir. It had already reached the limit before the breakthrough and could no longer be suppressed.
In the same situation as him is the space magic weapon, the Yin Burial Coffin.
Jiang Li has invested countless materials and spiritual objects into this magic weapon, and it has reached the critical point before breaking through. With just one final push, it will be able to transform into a dragon when it encounters water and be reborn.
Entering the long-lost coffin space, the interior of the space has changed a lot compared to before.
Not to mention the space for expansion, the coffin changes its appearance almost every day.
But unlike the relatively empty space originally, the bottom of the Burial Yin Space is now covered with a solid layer of spiritual stones and spiritual minerals, as well as a large number of high-level spiritual woods.
There is really no fraud, the floor is completely covered with a layer of carpet.
Even a very expensive vampire tree was brought to him.
In addition, in the center of the coffin space is an inverted, suspended ancient tree, the Jiuyou Wood.
In the innermost corner of the coffin, there was a huge corpse with three heads and six arms, sitting upright on a throne of bones, its whole body filled with an aura of chaos.
Such a small Xuan-grade upper-quality burial coffin actually gathered so many evil creatures. If it doesn't advance further, it will probably not be able to withstand all these guys.
Fortunately, the requirements for advancement are just around the corner.
After this period of accumulation, the number of ghosts in the burial coffin has reached 990,000, which is close to the limit, and the last 10,000 ghosts are in a soul-collecting cloth bag next to it.
Jiang Li sat cross-legged in the burial coffin, making the final adjustments.
In the outside world, Jiuyou's clone used the maximum speed of a Jindan cultivator and flew in a certain direction. The scenery below changed rapidly. He flew over the mountains and over the steep ridges, saw the Mazu River, and flew over the southern country of India.
Then, without stopping for a moment, he plunged into the yellow sand.
This desert is a thousand miles of barren land with no life at all.
This work is organized and uploaded by Liujiu Book Bar~~
The sudden appearance of such a desert in the Dazhong Mountain area covered by lush green mountains is a very abnormal situation.
When Jiang Li came here for the first time, he saw that the land in southern India was barren and the plants were yellow. This country backed by the desert, from plants to animals, all revealed a lifeless air.
He had been a little curious back then, and later because of the man in the underwater cemetery and the massacre by the Jindan sword cultivator, he naturally kept paying attention to this place.
With his rising status, it was no longer difficult for him to learn some secrets. After specifically asking the sect, he found out that this place had a little connection with him.
The Jindan cultivator was very fast. It took him a little more than two days to arrive here from the Shushan territory. Relying on Jiang Li's method of observing the earth veins, he crossed the sea of sand and flew to the center of the desert.
This is a huge dry basin, and also the place where the desert veins converge. There is no oasis under the basin, but a twisted and strange forest.
These trees are all dead trees, but under the influence of the extremely yin land of the earth veins, although the dead trees are dead, they still do not stop growing.
Looking down from a high vantage point, in the middle of all the twisted dead trees, you can see a huge, charred tree stump.
These are the remains of the thousand-year-old demon king, the Ghost Tree Sophora japonica, whose cultivation level once surpassed that of a Nascent Soul, whose Dharma image blocked out the sky and the sun, and whose roots could drink the netherworld!
Jiang Li's initial martial arts technique, the Ghost Wood Technique, was copied from the stump of the thousand-year-old locust tree spirit after its death.
Although he has now switched to practicing the Nine Netherworld Taoist Scriptures, the attributes of both are Yin Wood.
The place where the thousand-year-old demon king Sophora japonica died for his death was naturally the best place for him to build his Taoism.
Jiuyou's clone shook his hand and threw out the Yin Burial Coffin. After he entered it, the coffin, which seemed to be soaked in blood, sank into the ground automatically.
Because it absorbed too much blood during this period of time, the burial coffin has changed from its original gray-black color to its current blood-red color.
Under Jiang Li's control, the Yin Burial Coffin penetrated the thick strata and sank into the node of the earth vein before slowly stopping.
On the ground, the formation that had been prepared before began to work at this moment, concealing the aura of this basin as much as possible.
In the coffin space, Jiang Li opened his eyes and reached out to untie the soul-collecting bag next to him.
Ten thousand ghosts immediately poured out, and he also threw out dozens of blood gourds. A large amount of blood of high-level monsters poured out, forming a large pool of blood around him, and then slowly gathered together in one place.
The addition of this final ghost finally satisfied the most important advancement condition for the Burial Yin Coffin. The entire coffin space began to shake violently, and the Burial Yin spiritual energy inside began to spin like a hurricane, engulfing countless ghosts as if it was the end of the world.
The power of the surrounding earth veins was attracted by it and poured in continuously, pushing the burial coffin to begin its transformation.
Jiang Li was not idle either. He carefully took out a crystal clear white spiritual fruit from a jade box and put it into his mouth without hesitation.
This is the legendary spiritual fruit that Jiang Li got when he won the first place on the white list in the Dachongshan monk competition.
【Take the Daoji fruit, and the Dao essence will surround and act on you.】
[Surrounded by Dao Yun: A trace of Dao Yun surrounds you, automatically optimizing and replenishing your Dao foundation, lasting for 10 minutes] (-+)
The taste of the Daoji fruit does not come from the taste buds on the tip of the tongue, but more like the shock of touching the spiritual fruit.
It was as if a glimpse of the way of heaven and earth was revealed before his eyes.
As the saying goes, if you hear the truth in the morning, you can die in the evening. That kind of mysterious and wonderful thing cannot be described in words.
This is the power of the Dao Base Fruit, which contains a trace, an extremely subtle rhythm of the Dao.
What do monks fear most when they embark on the path of cultivation? The most feared thing is taking the wrong path!
If you make a mistake when you are laying the foundation at the beginning of the Great Dao, you may not be able to see how big a problem it is at first.
But as your cultivation becomes more advanced, the road ahead will become more difficult and tortuous.
If hundreds or thousands of years later, when you are about to ascend to immortality, you find that no matter what you do, you are unable to take that crucial step.
After getting to the bottom of it, I found out that my original foundation was wrong. How despairing it would be.
If the foundation of Taoism is not stable, let alone becoming an immortal or a Buddha, it is very likely that one will go astray and die.
But with this hint of Taoism, it will be completely different.
This trace of Dao rhythm is equivalent to the official cheating device of the Heavenly Dao, which can clearly tell the cultivators the mistakes and defects when building the foundation, and play a role in modifying and optimizing it.
After pressing and holding for five seconds, the subtle Taoist rhythm flowing through his body no longer looked like it was about to disappear at any time, but seemed to flow more happily.
The preparations are complete, and the foundation building officially begins! Jiang Li stepped forward, and the trunk of the Nine Netherwood automatically split open, revealing the humanoid space inside where "Qingshan Hermit" should have been.
He flew over, turned his legs around and crossed his legs, then entered the human-shaped hole in the same upside-down position.
With the help of the branch of the Nine Netherwood, the spiritual root of heaven and earth, the foundation of the Nine Nether Dao Sutra was cast. This is Qi! Several roots of the Nine Netherwood stretched out and fell to the ground, in the pool of blood that had just gathered. The blood of the thousands of monsters in the Demon Suppression Tower was mixed and sprayed out from the blood gourd.
With the blood of hundreds of beasts, the ancient body training secret technique was used to condense the beast blood tattoo and forge the foundation of the beast blood atlas. This is the body! Jiang Li then injected the first parallel consciousness and the third parallel consciousness into the body of the sword cultivator's clone and the Asura corpse respectively, and together with the Jiuyou clone, formed three completely different spiritual worlds as nutrients, guarding the vicinity of Jiang Li's core consciousness sea, providing nutrients continuously.
Using the lives of Shura, Jiuyou and Swordsman to represent the various aspects of the world, they form the foundation of the Heart Sutra of Guanyin, the Great Freedom. This is to be divine!
In Jiang Li's sea of qi, the little stone man exuded an endless supply of pure earth spiritual charm.
The spiritual wisdom within him was mercilessly extracted. In the space of consciousness, he turned into a stone man of the same appearance and fell to the ground, sinking deeply into it.
The originally pale fake land began to gradually transform into soil and rock, with distinct particles and thick and boundless texture.
Using the spirit of the Five Elements Peak of Mount Shu as a sacrifice, adjusting to the pure spiritual rhythm of the earth veins, and building the foundation of the Five Elements Immortal Mountain, this is the ground! From the mouth of Qingshan Jushi, a round golden pill flew out, passed through the skin of the Jiuyou Wood and fell into Jiang Li's stomach.
The Heavenly Thunder Immortal Golden Pill appeared in his spiritual world like a blazing sun. Then the life and death power of the Immortal Golden Pill separated to the left and right, and what emerged from it was a rolling cloud of heavenly calamity. The terrifying thunder and lightning in it roared endlessly, showing the endless power of heaven.
Use the energy of life and death to lock the power of heavenly punishment, hook the thunder from the sky in a thin line, and build the foundation of the thunder of life and death. This is heaven!
Heaven, earth, spirit, body and Qi, these five elements merge into one, and that trace of Tao rhythm acts as the best lubricant, allowing these five forces to grow wildly and intertwined in Jiang Li's body without any conflict.
Ahem, finally the foundation is being built. Comrades, please vote.
