Chen Luo was not unfamiliar with Huangquan, a ghost cultivation force. Even in the era of the rampant "Corpse Immortal Dao" eight thousand years later, Huangquan was still the strongest ghost cultivation force, and the weaknesses of ghost cultivation could not be seen in Huangquan cultivators.
In the bustling market town, Chen Luo and Mu Jianyu walked down the street with restrained aura.
The aura released to the outside is only that of the Jindan realm.
However, even if they were at the Jindan stage, they were still conspicuous in this market where only foundation building and Qi refining cultivators were present. The cultivators on both sides would subconsciously step away when they saw them, and when they occasionally encountered Jindan cultivators, they would stay away from them out of fear.
Casual cultivators live very cautiously.
"Where are you going?"
"Let's try first to see if we can find enough resources to break through the realm, and then find a way to deal with the Silent Taoist and take back the Dao that belongs to our Qionghua Sect."
What Chen Luo said was very simple.
He had indeed planned so. The time borrowed from the past was not infinite. According to Chen Luo's estimation, they would return to the original time in forty years at most. Forty years was too short for a cultivator of their realm, and it might not be enough for a single retreat. Not everyone was like Chen Luo, who had more than a thousand external brains to help with retreat.
"Break through the realm?!"
Mu Jianyu thought he had heard it wrong.
She was very clear about Chen Luo's current state, and it was precisely because of this that she was shocked.
This is the Return to Void Realm!
In the time period of 8,000 years later, the leader of Dao Sect would be at this level. Apart from the Upper Nine Sects and the Immortal Clan, whose traces could not be found, the peak of Return to Void was the strongest in the world of immortal cultivation, standing at the pinnacle. The realm above Return to Void was unheard of for Mu Jianyu, who came here 8,000 years later.
When Chen Luo went to the tomb to loot the Fire Pattern Mysterious Crystal, it was Zi Tianji who went with him. If Mu Jianyu had gone with him, he probably wouldn't have asked this question.
This made Chen Luo involuntarily think of his second brother, the Flower-back Turtle.
If that guy were here, he would have gone out to dig a grave long ago and would not have wasted time here.
"It's just a plan. Whether it can be achieved is still unknown."
The breakthrough of the Hedao realm is different from that of the minor realms, and requires corresponding memories. Chen Luoxiu's path is different from that of the three elder brothers. He can learn from the minor realms, but he can only find a way on his own for the major realms. However, the method of breaking through the Hedao realm in this era is not difficult to find.
What is rare is the corresponding resources.
This has been confirmed by the Five Elements Patriarch.
"If you make another breakthrough, Qionghua Sect will be able to directly advance to Dao Sect, and we won't even need the 'Dao' anymore!"
In Mu Jianyu's eyes, the most powerful one is Dao Zong.
It is also her lifelong wish to lead the Qionghua Sect back to the pinnacle of Taoism.
If Chen Luo can really break through, this wish will no longer be a mirage, but a real and visible hope. The "Tao" is the legacy of the Hedao cultivators. Chen Luo breaks through to become a Hedao cultivator. He himself is the living "Tao", which is more powerful than those Dao Sects who possess the "Tao".
"First, find a place to stay, and then let Zi Tianji ask for clues about other spiritual materials. By the way, look for Master and Disciple Le Qingzhu."
Chen Luo walked to a pavilion and stopped.
This place is where the caves are sold in the Panshi Market. Chen Luo came here to find a place to stay first. This place is very close to the Five Elements City, which is convenient for him to communicate with Zi Tianji. The market itself is also a place where information circulates. No matter what happens here, he can know it in advance.
There is a second-level spiritual vein under the Panshi Market, which is a very rare resource in this era. The fact that the market has been able to develop to its current scale has a lot to do with this spiritual vein.
"Senior, do you want to buy a cave?"
The shop owner who was dozing off inside saw Chen Luo and Mu Jianyu come in, and immediately walked over with a smile on his face.
Jindan cultivators are important customers of their Panshi Market. Unlike those poor souls in the Qi Refining Realm, they would rather break a spirit stone into two pieces to spend, and it is difficult for them to even earn some spiritual essence.
"I bought the two caves on the mountain."
Chen Luo's spiritual sense was so strong that the entire Panshi Market was within his spiritual sense range. To him, there were no secrets in Panshi Market, including the formation area set up by the three families in the core area, which also did not escape his spiritual sense. If he was not afraid of making too much noise and attracting the Hedao old monster of the Ancient Sword Sect, he would have gone directly to ask the three families to move.
"The cave on the mountain has been reserved. Senior, would you like to take a look at the cave at the foot of the mountain? The spiritual energy of the cave here is a little lacking."
Chen Luo turned his gaze and glanced at the man indifferently, causing the other party to stop talking about raising the price. A tremor from the soul surged into his heart, and the words that had not yet been finished were quickly changed.
"I'll arrange it for you right away."
After paying the spirit stones, Chen Luo took Mu Jianyu to the cave on the mountain with satisfaction.
There were two in total, and Chen Luo bought the two caves with the best locations in Panshifang City. He had looted the spirit stones from the storage bags of the high-level people, and they were just sitting there anyway, so he might as well take them out and make use of them.
After sending the two away, the shop owner stood at the door and breathed a sigh of relief. He couldn't help but feel a little puzzled. He had faced many Jindan cultivators in the past, but he had never encountered such a situation as today. Even the old monster of Yuanying could not bring him as much pressure as those two people before.
'It's really strange!'
After pondering for a long time without any result, the shop owner could only return to the shop and report the matter to the three great families behind him using the communication talisman. The two caves were put up for sale by the people of the three great families. The original intention was just to use them as a signboard to attract outsiders. Now that they were forcibly bought, he naturally had to explain the situation to the owner.
What surprised the shop owner was that after learning the news, the three families simply replied with "got it" and then fell silent.
This disappointed him greatly.
I thought the three big families would teach them a lesson, but I didn't expect them to be so cowardly.
The people from the three big families were not stupid. Although Chen Luo showed his Jindan realm cultivation to the outside world, he could make the shopkeeper speak up with a simple look, which in itself was a sign of the problem. As a force that was able to develop during the purge of the Five Elements City, the people behind the three big families were naturally not stupid and knew who to offend and who not to offend.
After going up the mountain, Chen Luo modified the formation in the cave and added several layers of restrictions outside.
He also adjusted the spirit gathering array to the fifth level.
After arranging these things, Chen Luo sat down again and began to adjust his state. Mu Jianyu did not stay on the mountain for long. After a short rest for a few days, she went down the mountain alone. She did not say where she was going, and Chen Luo did not ask. Mu Jianyu's cultivation was not weak. After her cultivation was restored, she was at the top of the world of immortal cultivation. As long as she did not provoke the Nine Sects, there were not many people in the world of immortal cultivation who could hurt her.
Inside the cave.
Chen Luo sat cross-legged.
After practicing to this point, Chen Luo's understanding of his own strength has become clearer. He has reached the perfect state of returning to the void in more than 600 years. There is no one in the entire cultivation world who can do it. Even reincarnated cultivators like Su Linlin and Gu He have been left behind by him.
The scene of his previous fight with the old monster Hedao gave him the idea of reorganizing his own strength.
At the level of He Dao, many magical skills lost their effect, because no matter what kind of magical power it was, it would eventually need to act on the Dao. For example, the old monster that was killed by him in the Emperor's Tomb before controlled the "Water Dao Rhythm". Under the "Dao" controlled by the other party, only the water-based magical power could be used. But even if the water-based magical power was used, it could not block the other party's attack from the "Dao".
To be in harmony with the Tao is the greatest reliance of a cultivator who has achieved the Tao.
To fight with a cultivator of the Hedao is to fight against the heaven and earth that are in harmony with the other person.
Unless they were in a special space that was isolated from the heaven and earth, such as the Emperor's Tomb, otherwise, all the magical powers of Chen Luo combined would not be able to defeat the opponent. The only ones that could work were the three methods he often used.
Three-phase magic seeds, poisonous insects and soul flags.
All other powers are useless, including curses, seals, spells, etc. Although these powers are very strong, they are far from the level of fighting across levels, and at most they can dominate the same level. Only these three powers can burst out with strength far beyond the same level, even if there is such a big gap between returning to the void and combining with the way, they can still play a role.
Chen Luo released several strange insects, and this time even the Illusion God Gu was taken back by him.
Five strange insects of different colors were lying on the table.
The two centipedes were the most peaceful. As the rare insects ranked over 400, the two centipedes were as weak as ordinary insects in front of the other three. In the second round of evolution, the two centipedes were oppressed by the Soul-Bonding Gu and the Life-Borrowing Gu, and one of them almost died. Now that there is an Illusion God Gu, their status has become even lower, and they can only bully the ordinary Gu insects in the insect breeding bag.
The Life-Borrowing Gu still looked half-dead and spent most of its time sleeping.
The soul-parasitic insect was quite active, with its aura constantly emanating from it. The two centipedes next to it twitched from time to time, indicating that they were being controlled by it.
The Phantom God Gu is the largest and has the strangest aura.
It was clearly on the table, but the other four strange insects seemed to be unable to see it. If Chen Luo had not refined this insect, he would have subconsciously ignored its existence like the other strange insects.
"It is indeed one of the top ten poisonous insects."
Chen Luo was very satisfied with the ability of the Phantom God Gu.
The only regret was that Ning Chenye didn't get the Spring and Autumn Gu. That Gu was also one of the top ten rare insects. He had been thinking about it for a long time, but he didn't expect that he couldn't get it in the end. He could only wait until the Hedao was established to look for it again. He just hoped that Brother Ning's wife was still there.
As a brother, he should take care of his brother's wife!
'Whitehead flowers supplemented with yellow blood mud can increase the growth rate of beetles.'
"Centipedes are poisonous and toxic, and should be fed with the Absolute Spirit Flower."
"The Life-Borrowing Gu can be released to roam free."
The insect cultivator brains in the external brain popped out one after another. (End of this chapter)
