Tianyuan World, Gongshu Family.
On a certain huge mountain, spiritual energy was lingering and magical cranes and butterflies were flying.
It looks like a paradise of immortals.
However, in this peaceful and blessed place, there are people with gloomy faces and cold eyes.
"We still haven't found out the origin of the evil demon that killed Yu'er, and where did it escape to?"
A beautiful, graceful and elegant middle-aged woman asked in a cold voice.
"Madam," a guard replied cautiously, "The origin of that evil demon is mysterious. No matter how hard we investigate, we can only find out that he is an outsider monk.
He entered the Xiaocang Realm from the Starry Sky City via the teleportation array.
But the specific background and the origin of his teachers could not be found.
As for his whereabouts, no one has seen him since he entered the City Lord's Mansion of Canglan City.
I think he should have entered our upper realm from the Hundred Flowers Valley through the teleportation array in the City Lord's Mansion.
But in the past two years, we have conducted open and secret investigations and visited cities within a radius of hundreds of thousands of miles around Baihua Valley.
No trace of the evil demon was found.
So I think that it is very likely that it is an evil demon.
They are either hiding in the Nangong family, or escaping to other states through teleportation arrays, or even leaving our upper realm."
Buzz!
Hearing this, the graceful middle-aged woman trembled and an icy aura spread out.
A layer of frost suddenly formed on the ground, and even the guard who was kneeling on the ground had a layer of white frost on his body, with icicles hanging on his eyebrows.
However, the guards did not dare to move at all, and did not even dare to use their internal energy to resist.
He just relied on his physical strength to endure it all.
"A bunch of rubbish!" The middle-aged woman said in a cold voice, "I gave you two years, but you couldn't find anything. What use do I have for you?"
The guard didn't dare to speak, he knew that the Madam had been in a bad mood ever since Master Yu passed away.
If he were to defend himself at this moment, he would probably be punished even more severely, and might even lose his life.
The middle-aged woman's aura continued to linger until a thick layer of frost formed on the guard's body, and his flesh was about to crack.
Only then did she calm down a little.
His expression turned cold again.
"What about the master? It's been so long, and he can't find anything?"
"The master has been in seclusion and has no other instructions for us."
The guard's voice trembled a little.
The middle-aged woman's breath trembled again.
“Humph, he is also a waste. He didn’t even dare to seek revenge when his own son died. He only knew to practice in seclusion every day.
No matter how good you are at practicing, do you think you can ever become the head of the family?
And those old immortals in the tribe are all cowardly wastes!
The clan's direct descendant died at the hands of the Nangong family, but they didn't even have the courage to declare war on the Nangong family!
Forget it, since you won’t avenge my Yu’er.
Then let me, a woman, make the decision for my son!
Nangong Yuanwu, you dare to kill my son. I swear that I will destroy your body and soul and make you never be reborn!
And that evil demon, no matter where you escape to, I will definitely find you.
I will refine your spirit and soul into a lamp and offer it before the spirit tablet of my Yu'er.
Temper yourself day and night and confess to my son!"
Hearing the middle-aged woman's vicious words that sounded like they came from the Netherworld, and the terrifying aura emanating from her body, the guards were horrified.
However, before he could react, he was completely frozen by the extremely cold aura.
…
Lu Qing didn't know that there was a woman in the Gongshu family who harbored great hatred towards him.
He was practicing diligently in an unknown cave.
The breath was silent, like a stone man.
I don’t know how long it had been, but Lu Qing’s breath suddenly shook slightly, and then he slowly woke up.
"Finally the fourth transformation is complete."
There was emotion in Lu Qing's eyes.
After more than two years of seclusion in this cave, he finally improved his cultivation from the initial fourth level of the Golden Elixir to the perfect fourth level.
Next, as long as he calms down for a while, he can start to break through and enter the fifth level of Golden Elixir.
“However, after entering the fifth level, I’m afraid I can no longer retreat here.”
Lu Qing frowned.
The cave where he was located was the lair of a group of spirit leopards whose strongest form was only at the Foundation Establishment stage.
But the spiritual energy of this Tianyuan world is originally very rich.
Although this cave is ordinary, the spiritual energy inside is enough for him and Xiaoli to practice for a long time.
However, as his cultivation level improved, there was one thing that Lu Qing had to consider.
That is his [Perfect Golden Elixir Method], which has only been deduced to the sixth level so far.
The later realm cannot be deduced for the time being.
The reason is because of the [Perfect Golden Elixir Method].
It was originally created by Lu Qing based on the chapter of the Great Dao bestowed by Heaven after he successfully overcame the tribulation that year, combined with the many skills he mastered.
But there were not many advanced skills that he could obtain in his hometown world.
There are only a handful of people who can reach the Yuanshen realm.
With this as his nourishment, he deduced the [Perfect Golden Elixir Method], but in the end, he only deduced it to the sixth turn and couldn't continue.
"If you want to deduce the cultivation method of the [Perfect Golden Core Method] after the sixth transformation of the Golden Core, you still need to find more techniques and learn by analogy."
Lu Qing’s perfect golden elixir is too special.
A complete world can only give birth to a person under various coincidences.
And it's just a possibility.
If there wasn’t a genius who was amazing enough, coupled with a lot of coincidences.
In some worlds, even from birth to extinction, a perfect golden elixir may not be born.
There is no specific method to cultivate such a special golden elixir.
Therefore, Lu Qing could only rely on his special abilities to slowly deduce and create his own method of cultivation.
However, although supernatural powers are magical, they are not omnipotent and it is difficult to create something out of nothing.
If you want to deduce a technique, you also need to have enough other techniques for comparison and reference, so that you can create a new technique.
Back in his hometown world, the skills Lu Qing mastered could only support him to barely deduce the sixth turn of the [Perfect Golden Elixir Method].
He wanted to deduce the seventh revolution, but he was unable to do so and could not deduce it no matter what he did.
At that time Lu Qing knew that it was because he had not accumulated enough.
This was also one of the reasons why he wanted to leave his hometown world.
Staying in his hometown world, not only is it difficult for him to improve his cultivation, but even the deduction of his skills has come to a standstill.
Only by going out and coming into contact with more advanced skills can he create the subsequent skills of the Perfect Golden Elixir Method.
"After this breakthrough, I will officially start to travel around this Tianyuan World."
After Lu Qing made a decision in his heart, he looked at Xiao Li and Wu Xing beside him.
Xiao Li had already reached the state of perfection of the first level of Golden Elixir a year ago.
Now, he is only one step away from entering the second level of Golden Core.
As for the Five Elements, they have been sleeping and digesting the corpse of the strange bird for the past two years.
The aura on his body is also steadily increasing.
When it wakes up, its cultivation will surely improve greatly.
By the time he breaks through, these two little guys will probably be able to wake up.
Lu Qing closed his eyes again and entered into deep training.
As for the nest of spirit leopards, he had already put them into the Lihuo Cauldron and imprisoned them temporarily.
After all, he was the one who occupied the other person's nest, so he did not kill him.
However, the spiritual beasts in the Foundation Establishment Stage are already quite spiritual and can communicate with other creatures.
Therefore, in order to ensure that his whereabouts were not disclosed, he could not release it at will, and could only imprison it in the Lihuo Ding.
Anyway, it’s just a nest of spirit leopards. With the Lihuo Ding now fully restored to its peak power, it can fully provide them with what they need for survival.
Time passed day by day again as Lu Qing practiced.
However, what surprised Lu Qing was that
Half a month later, he had not yet officially entered the fifth turn, but Xiao Li broke through first.
He took a crucial step and officially entered the second level of the Golden Core Realm.
Then half a month later, the five elements woke up.
However, after digesting the corpse of the strange bird, it was still slightly inferior to Xiaoli, and had only reached the first level of perfection.
It will take some time to accumulate knowledge before you can reach the second level before you can try to break through.
Seeing that the two little guys had successfully broken through, Lu Qing felt relieved and began to practice with all his strength.
On this day, in the quiet cave, Lu Qing suddenly felt something move.
Then, without thinking, he took out a handful of medium-grade spirit stones from his Qiankun Yiqi bag.
With a casual scattering of his hands, thirty-six middle-grade spirit stones fell around his body, forming a simple spirit gathering formation.
Then he activated the formation with his mind, and the surging spiritual energy surged out from the thirty-six middle-grade spirit stones and gathered on him.
Lu Qing's skills were running like a real dragon sucking up water, continuously absorbing the extremely surging spiritual energy into his body.
After being purified and refined by the Five Elements Gourd, it becomes one's own incomparably pure magic power.
As a large amount of spiritual stones and spiritual energy were swallowed into Lu Qingjing's body.
The aura emanating from him became increasingly powerful.
Finally, when the thirty-six middle-grade spirit stones spit out the last of their spiritual energy and shattered themselves.
Lu Qing absorbed this huge spiritual energy into his body, and his whole body shook.
An extremely powerful aura, like that of an ancient beast awakening, emanated from him.
Fortunately, he had already set up a formation outside the cave to conceal the aura.
Otherwise, if the aura of his breakthrough spread out, it would probably cause a commotion in the entire nearby mountain range.
However, there is a formation covering the outside of the cave, so the aura cannot be transmitted out.
Xiao Li and Wu Xing were stimulated by the news of Lu Qing's breakthrough and woke up from their cultivation.
"Ah Qing finally broke through?"
Xiao Li felt the terrifying aura coming from Lu Qing and immediately understood what had happened, with a look of surprise in his eyes.
Wuxing also wagged his tail repeatedly, very excited.
The two little guys were waiting excitedly for Lu Qing to complete his breakthrough.
After a while, Lu Qing's aura quickly subsided and soon returned to its normal state.
Then he opened his eyes, his gaze was extremely deep, as if containing the endless starry sky, making people feel as if their souls would be sucked into it.
However, this strange phenomenon only flashed by and was then suppressed by Lu Qing.
"Ah Qing, did you successfully break through?"
Xiao Li came up to Lu Qing and asked impatiently.
"Yes, I just broke through to the fifth level of Golden Core." Lu Qing nodded with a smile.
"Golden Core Fifth Transformation..." Xiao Li heard this with envy in his eyes, "You humans are really fast in cultivation. Compared to you, our spiritual beasts' cultivation speed is really too slow."
“The speed at which you two practice is not slow.
Many spiritual beasts may suffer for dozens or even hundreds of years, but may not be able to break through to a small realm.
You are so fast, you have already reached the second stage of the Golden Core, even among all the spirit beasts, you are very fast."
Lu Qing reached out and rubbed Xiao Li's head, smiling.
"That's right, I'm a genius!"
When the little guy was praised, he immediately raised his head proudly.
Seeing this, Lu Qing laughed again.
But he didn't refute the little guy's words.
Because he knew that Xiao Li was not wrong.
It and the Five Elements can indeed be called geniuses among spiritual beasts.
After all, these two little guys have condensed top-grade demon pills.
Xiao Li, in particular, had survived all nine thunder tribulations.
The condensed top-grade demon pill is perfect and flawless.
Such qualifications are probably considered to be the best even in the Tianyuan world.
The calamity of the golden elixir is derived from the various heavenly ways under the rule of the great way.
The extent of its power is determined by the monk's own accumulation and the depth of his sins.
It has nothing to do with the size of the world.
In other words, if a cultivator who was born and raised in the Tianyuan World has achieved perfect foundation.
Run to another world, such as Lu Qing’s hometown world, to survive the tribulation.
His heavenly tribulation will not change, and its power remains the same.
Under the heavenly calamity, all beings are equal.
No matter how powerful a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Stage is, he cannot be stronger than the laws of nature in a world.
Under the induction of the Great Dao, your golden elixir tribulation will not become less powerful just because you have changed into a new world.
If the Golden Core Tribulation was so easy to overcome, those Foundation Establishment cultivators in the big world would probably have found ways to escape to the small worlds to survive the tribulation long ago.
For this reason, the top-grade golden elixir condensed after successfully surviving the tribulation in the small world will not be much weaker than the top-grade golden elixir in the big world.
All this information was explained in the chapter on the Great Dao of the Golden Core Realm that Lu Qing obtained.
That's why he didn't refute Xiao Li's words.
Because the flawless top-grade demon pill that Xiao Li condensed after surviving nine levels of thunder tribulation can indeed be considered as top-notch qualification in the Tianyuan World.
Of course, this is the case with the Golden Core Tribulation. As for whether it is also the case with the Primordial Spirit Tribulation, Lu Qing is not sure.
After all, at that level, one has already begun to comprehend the various rules of Tao.
What specific mysterious changes there are are not something Lu Qing can understand at the moment.
"Ah Qing, since you have already broken through, should we go out?"
At this time Xiao Li asked again.
"Yes, it's a rare opportunity to come to this Tianyuan World. I can't stay in seclusion all the time. It's time to go out for a walk."
Lu Qing touched Xiao Li's head and smiled.
