Chapter 130: Humans make great medicine, but martial arts cannot match immortality

Mr. Ji's words were sincere and persuasive.

He once boasted to Lin Xiaoyi that he would make Gu Dan his disciple, which was of course a somewhat outrageous joke.

Although Gu Dan had never become a disciple, he still gave Gu Dan comprehensive guidance.

To be fair, Gu Dan didn't actually have a deep connection with him, let alone any friendship, and he didn't even have the apprenticeship he hoped for.

But this old man, who is over 100 years old, still wants to impart all the experience and wisdom he has accumulated over the past 100 years to Gu Dan as quickly as possible without reservation.

There really isn't much time left for him.

"I see."

Gu Dan nodded obediently. The secret he had was far more terrifying than "being guilty of possessing a treasure".

It was so terrible that even when he reached the realm of a martial arts master, he never acted recklessly, for fear of being caught by the immortal who was lurking somewhere in the dark.

The son of a wealthy family cannot sit in the hall, and it is difficult to be immortal without being cowardly! Cowardly is not cowardly, but steady.

It is difficult to find someone more stable than him in this world, and Gu Dan is very confident about this.

Seeing Gu Dan nodding his head calmly, he seemed to agree with what I said, which amused Ji Lao. He said with a smile, "I forgot that you are better at hiding than anyone else. If it weren't for the siege by the Imperial Army, no one would know that there is another young martial arts master hiding under the nose of the Imperial City."

"ha"

Gu Dan smiled twice and returned to the main topic: "Did the flesh and blood of the person who secretly possessed the strange fragrance really increase one's power?"

"That's right. The flesh and blood of the person who secretly possesses the strange fragrance can not only help the warriors to increase their skills, but it can even prolong their lifespan!"

Elder Ji looked regretful. "The emperor of Dayue at that time was the longest-serving emperor of Dayue, for seventy-two years. Although he did not practice advanced martial arts, he was healthy even in his later years. After he died, he was found by a palace maid. At that time, they thought he was just sleeping!"

The emperor reigned for seventy-two years!

This is a very scary number!

Assuming there is no palace coup and sudden death of the previous emperor, if the succession is normal, he would have to be in his teens or twenties when he becomes emperor, and being in his thirties or forties a little later would not be a big deal.

In addition, although the position of emperor seems to be extremely honorable, it is also very laborious, and many unknown intrigues are constantly taking place.

But not every emperor can be like Emperor Zong Ming who could avoid court for more than 20 years and just live a good life and think that it is a good thing for the world.

Normally speaking, the emperor and his subjects would fight a hundred times a day, and this is no exaggeration!

It is indeed remarkable that he could serve as emperor for seventy-two years.

Especially without any practice, it is already terrifying.

He alone accounted for more than 20% of the Dayue Kingdom's life span. One can imagine how "extra long" his life span was.

Gu Dan wouldn't believe that this had no contribution from the flesh and blood of the person who secretly possessed the strange fragrance.

But the question is, "Why did the person who secretly possessed the strange fragrance not show any abnormality when he was alive? Instead, he became special after his death?" Gu Dan frowned, unable to understand.

The secret fragrance, double pupils, eight-colored eyebrows, three leaky ears, and four breasts are all different! The other special features can be seen at a glance.

Only this person was revealed after his death, which is totally unreasonable.

If there is a special physique that needs to be dead to take effect, then it has no effect! It is even better to say that it is a curse, and even after death, there will be no peace, and people will eat it up! "I have thought about this question for a long time. I haven't found the real answer, but I have seen an extremely vicious answer in a novel about immortals."

Ji Lao's eyes were dim, his tone was cold, and his voice became low. "It's different from describing how great the immortals are, how they swallow clouds and spit out mist, eat clouds and drink dew. The immortals in those vernacular novels are all vicious and cruel, and their schemes and intrigues are even worse than those in the mortal world!

The protagonist in the storybook is a naive person who was deceived by the "immortal" and really regarded the immortal path as the supreme wonderland. However, he was lucky enough to join a fairly good sect. Although he encountered many dangers when he went out for training and was plotted against by outsiders, he was rescued by his senior sister, and the two of them finally escaped together.

The two of them confided in each other during their escape, but the protagonist also had a childhood sweetheart, a junior sister, who had always been very considerate to him, and he naturally couldn't let her go. So he tried every means to mediate between the senior sister and the junior sister, and worked hard to improve his own strength. In addition, he was quite talented, so he soon became the master of the sect and became his personal disciple.

After acquiring this identity, that person became like Cheng Yunlong, encountering many adventures along the way, killing all those who had bullied him before, and in the end, he naturally enjoyed the blessing of having many wives, got the beauty and became a local giant! "

Listening to the story told by Mr. Ji, the corners of Gu Dan's mouth twitched twice.

How can such a clichéd and unoriginal story be called "extremely vicious"? It's so old-fashioned!

Just listening to it once gives me goosebumps.

If this happened in his world, it would definitely be a failure and wouldn't make any waves.

Although Mr. Ji is very experienced, he still lacks knowledge in this area!

There must be at least eight thousand stories like this. Why are they worth talking about in detail?

"hey-hey."

Seeing Gu Dan's face full of disapproval, Old Ji smiled. That smile was cold and strange, and just looking at it made people feel cold. The voice that was like the echo of a ghost did not stop when the protagonist of the vernacular novel became a giant.

Old Ji continued, "That man lived his life incomparably happily. After his death, a strange fragrance emanated from his body. His master, the head of the sect who accepted him as a disciple, appeared beside his corpse and swallowed it completely. In an instant, a heavenly calamity exploded, and he was about to attain enlightenment and ascend to heaven! It turned out that the man had an extremely difficult-to-find physique for great medicine. There was no sign of it when he was alive, but after his death, he could become a furnace of great medicine. All his cultivation would be condensed in his body, which was extremely harmonious and more natural than any elixir.

All the adventures and instructions he experienced were actually secretly arranged by his master. In the end, he naturally became the great medicine that the master wanted most. After swallowing the human medicine that he had spent his entire life to refine, he finally achieved the right result! "

The happy and harmonious reunion was unveiled at this moment, revealing the final knife.

This is not a boring story about a genius who encounters beautiful women one after another, but a story about a shrewd and cunning guy who tricks people to death and finally achieves enlightenment and becomes an immortal!

Even though Gu Dan was a veteran, he couldn't help but feel a pang of pain when he heard the ending.

In this world where immortals really exist, it is extremely vicious for someone to dare to write like this!

Not only is there no warmth or tenderness at all, but it also makes people feel despair. The person is despicable!

The "protagonist" who seems to have lived a happy and romantic life but is actually completely unaware of the dangers in it appears extremely pathetic.

There is always a big hand secretly manipulating his destiny throughout his life, making him become what others want him to be.

It's terrifying to think about it! But it's not necessarily true to say that this story was told purely by someone with malicious intent to disgust others.

Because there really was a person in Dayue who secretly possessed a strange fragrance after his death! It's hard to say whether this story is groundless or just a coincidence! "Maybe it's a coincidence?"

After a while, Gu Dan said, "That unlucky Buddhist Arhat, didn't he have a mastermind in the end? Although he caused the destruction of Buddhism, it was only because of the greed in people's hearts."

"Hey, I hope so."

Mr. Ji naturally understood what Gu Dan was thinking, and the two of them tacitly avoided discussing the horrible ending of the story.

Thoughts that are too dark and hit people's hearts directly will eventually wear down people's will and spirit! If this kind of story can serve as a warning to people, it can be considered to be somewhat useful. However, if it is really regarded as a criterion and widely publicized, or even directly regarded as a "sage" who has seen through all worldly things through the story, and others are stupid fools who are as stupid as pigs and fall into the net without knowing it, then such a story is better than not existing.

When a person starts to doubt everything and does not hesitate to assume the worst of everyone he sees, that is not being alert and having seen through the world after experiencing the vicissitudes of life, that is being mentally ill.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

Since they were talking about immortals, Gu Dan couldn't help but ask curiously, "You have a wide range of experience, a lot of knowledge, and a lot of experience. I wonder what you think of immortals?"

"I haven't really tried it, so who knows? But since the world is so devoted to immortality, it must be because martial arts are far inferior. You just tried it, and the martial arts master could only leave a shallow palm print on the iron ball. It is beyond human power. I'm afraid it is something left behind by immortals. Even objects are inferior to it, let alone immortals?"

Mr. Ji tells us everything he knows.

"Oh? I thought you would think that martial arts should not be inferior to immortality!" Gu Dan said with some surprise.

After all, Master Ji's lifelong dream is to take his Grandmaster status one step further and reach the so-called innate status, so he is naturally unwilling to lag behind the immortals.

Old Ji shook his head and said without hesitation: "No matter whether the immortal path is dangerous or not, if it is possible, even I myself would like to cultivate immortality. If I were 20 or 30 years younger, I would definitely pursue the place where the star that fell from the sky that night finally landed, even if I knew that the chances were slim, I would never give up.

But time won't wait for me. Even though I know that the immortal way is stronger than the martial way, there is no chance. It's too late. I just hope that my life-long research can get a result, which will make my life worthwhile. The immortal way is too far, so I don't ask for it! "

"It is still unclear whether the level above Grandmaster is real. If you let go of your obsession and cultivate yourself well, you may be able to live for more than ten years."

Finally, the issue of life span came to mind, and Gu Dan's expression became serious.

Mr. Ji is indeed dying.

But dying doesn't mean he's running out of energy! Gu Dan had already secretly used the Qingmu Huasheng Jue's aura to sense that the reason why Ji Lao looked so haggard and had no demeanor of a martial arts master was because he had hidden all his strength.

It was a method even more extreme than Jing Chan, which buried all the strength in the body, just like a blocked crater. The terrifying power was not truly extinct, but was constantly accumulating, waiting for the moment to turn into a shocking roar!

This method is by no means without cost, and it places a great burden on the body.

If life is regarded as a road, the end of the road is a wall representing death. Although Mr. Ji is about to reach the end of the road, he still has a little room to maneuver.

But instead of slowing down, he deliberately sped up his pace, wanting to take advantage of the last section of the road to leap over the mountain of death and reach a realm above the Grandmaster! It would be great if it could be accomplished naturally, but there is a high probability that he would get hurt! "More than ten years?"

Old Ji laughed and asked, "Have you ever thought about why the master's body can remain intact for a hundred years after his death, but he still dies? His body is still holding up!"

Gu Dan was slightly stunned. He had never been troubled by his lifespan and had never really thought about this question in detail.

"Where does the true qi come from? It is the vital energy of the five internal organs! Everything a martial arts master has comes from the five internal organs. The true qi can temper the body to be as strong as fine iron, and it can withstand swords and knives without any damage, but it cannot temper the five internal organs!"

Mr. Ji didn't want to make things difficult for Gu Dan, so he just said it out loud.

The Qi hammered the flesh and blood to complete the Qi and blood barrier, so that the master's body did not decay for a hundred years, relying on the hard wear and tear and reshaping, which was equivalent to polishing it again! The question is, who dares to use the Qi to poke a hole in his heart? If you don't dare to poke it, how can you go deeper into the Qi and blood barrier? So that the flesh and blood bones can still hold on, but the five internal organs begin to fail continuously. This is the limit of the master's lifespan.

"The body can hold on longer, but the internal organs will gradually weaken. In fact, if the spirit stone had not fallen from the sky, the martial arts master who died on the night of Jingzhe who was trying to reach the innate state should have been me.

It was with the help of spiritual energy that I was able to buy myself some time. How could I delay any longer? I have already prepared myself for death and extinction."

Old Ji said nonchalantly, "In my current situation, I can probably last about five years. Come to me more often in the next few years. If you have any questions, take the time to ask me. It's better to be prepared for anything."

"that."

Gu Dan sorted out his words and said carefully: "There is something I don't know whether I should say it or not."

"Is there anything I should or shouldn't say? Just say it!"

"I think that if you don't break through to the innate realm and give me a dozen years, I can probably reach that realm first - if it really exists." Gu Dan said without blushing or panting.

With his current rate of progress, it’s hard to say what level he can reach in a dozen years !

Even Mr. Ji, who had high hopes for Gu Dan, was so angry at these words that he fumed.

Do you think you can catch up with his hundred years of hard training in just over ten years?

You are so brave! "How about we give it a try?"

Gu Dan raised his eyebrows and pretended to be unbridled and arrogant, almost sticking the word "invincible" on his face.

Old Ji laughed, and patted Gu Dan's shoulder gently with his hand that was old and dry like tree bark.

"Don't bother thinking about it, kid. How can I die in bed?!"
