Chapter 313: Ripples of the times, shocking waves!

Gu Dan was very happy when his mind was opened.

It has been a long time since he was promoted to Grand Master and had not experienced anything worthy of his excitement.

"Come on, drink!"

As the glasses clinked, no matter how drunk Chi Jiang was, he couldn't resist the grandmaster's ambition.

After drinking the jar of wine, Zhuang Sheng was already lying on the table in a daze, drowsy.

Gu Dan was still very excited, his blood and qi were thriving, how could he be drunk at all? On the contrary, he looked very energetic!

It had been a long, long time since he had used the ultimate strength of a grandmaster. The invisible bottleneck had shrouded him for too long, making him almost numb.

Now, the dawn has come! After bidding farewell to the drunk Zhuang Sheng, Gu Dan went straight back to his cave and took out the book "Refining Qi" to study it carefully.

The purpose is not to refer to the extremely cruel methods of practice, but to carefully study the concepts and apply them to your own benefit.

There is no evil technology, only evil people who use technology!

Although Gu Dan would not refer to the various practices in it that were detrimental to the 'acquired Qi' of nature, it did not prevent him from making some deductions based on them.

In terms of knowledge in martial arts, there is probably no one in the world who can be stronger than him. With such a high level of knowledge, it must not be difficult for him to try to create acquired Qi.

However, this time he couldn't just immerse himself in cultivation. He had already taken all the benefits from the Law Enforcement Hall, and he couldn't just not give face. This was not the Xia Dynasty.

So Gu Dan had to patrol as usual every day. If he saw a "suspicious monk", he would call him over, hand over his identity token for careful comparison, and after routinely checking a few people to confirm that they were correct, he could do whatever he wanted.

It's just a formality.

In fact, most people in the Law Enforcement Hall are like this. Since they have taken the benefits, it is not impossible for everyone to give them some face and help investigate the person.

But there are very few monks who really think they can win the first prize with this.

No matter how powerful the Fire House owner is, he can't control Ning House. If he is not generous, who will give him face! To be honest, Gu Dan and the Fire House owner Feng Qian have a grudge. He is lucky that he didn't secretly give him two bamboo poles. Naturally, he will not bother to think about the Fire House.

The days are calm, but the worries are still lurking.

Two months later, the last person who attacked and killed the foundation-building elder of Lingzhen Hall in Huofang was finally caught! He hid in Mufang, but he was seriously injured and needed medicine to heal his wounds. Ordinary medicine was almost useless, so he had to take risks. Unfortunately, facing increasingly strict scrutiny, he could not escape after all.

Eventually, a lucky monk discovered that his behavior was strange, and with the idea of ​​trying his luck, he reported him to the police, and actually caught the culprit.

However, it was someone from Mu Fang who finally captured him, so he missed the grand prize and was finally rewarded with 500 spirit stones - even so, it could be said that he became rich overnight! The captured Yu Qing was escorted back to the Fire Square and publicly executed by the owner of the Fire Square, Feng Qian. His method was far more terrifying than the most terrifying torture in the mortal world! It is said that some immortal seedlings were vomiting after seeing it.

Yu Qing, who was being tortured, continued to curse.

"The source of spiritual energy is something created by heaven and earth. When did it have an owner? Now it is monopolized by you rats, and you want us to work like slaves for you."

Before he could finish his words, all his teeth had been knocked out by Feng Qian, the owner of the Fire Workshop, and even half of his tongue had been dug out.

A master will not die.

What awaited him was even more horrific torture, and some magical arts for him to enjoy.

It is said that it took a full day and night for the mass of rotten flesh to stop wriggling. It was truly horrifying.

Unfortunately, the mouth can indeed be blocked, but how can the facts be blocked? When the news was passed back to Ningfang, Gu Dan, who heard that the matter had come to an end, knew the details and could not help but frowned.

Feng Qian, the owner of the Fire Workshop, must have made a big mistake.

It didn't matter how he punished Yu Qing in private, but he absolutely shouldn't want to execute him publicly to make an example of him.

Monks are not chickens.

Building a foundation is not invincible either.

Since seven masters and even cultivators in the late stage of Qi training could secretly ambush and kill a cultivator who had just been promoted to the foundation-building stage, what would happen if there were more people?

Killing the person will put an end to all of it, and I'm afraid no one will be able to say anything.

However, humiliating the Grand Master in this way would not only fail to establish his authority, but would inevitably make people feel that "the rabbit dies and the fox mourns".

Even though Huang Chao once suppressed more than a dozen masters on the martial arts stage and showed off his demeanor as a foundation-building cultivator, it was because everyone didn't want to burn their flesh and blood and didn't really fight him.

If you really push them, even rabbits can bite people, so how can a master be a vegetarian? Moreover, after a master turns to cultivating immortality, he has the body of a master and the assistance of immortal arts. It is no longer a simple superposition of combat power. He can tailor a set of suitable tactics for himself, which is much more powerful than simply burning flesh and blood! Huang Chao also understands this point. He has never really put on any airs when treating the people of his own Law Enforcement Hall. He treats them well and takes good care of them. Only in this way can he be convinced by everyone, instead of relying solely on the strength of a foundation-building cultivator! Although the immortal way is a realm and a level, the cultivators in the early stage of foundation building are not enough to really pull the gap to the size of heaven and earth.

Even though there are more than 30 foundation-building cultivators now, all of them are in the early stage of foundation-building, and there is not a single one in the middle stage. There is also a lack of auxiliary items suitable for foundation-building cultivators. They can only rely on their own combat power to fight the enemy, and it is far from being so refreshing to crush the enemy in terms of realm.

"He is vicious in his actions, but his thinking is incomplete."

Gu Dan, who received the news, made such comments.

In this way, he skipped the daily inspection and devoted his whole body and mind to studying "Refining Qi" with great dedication.

In the blink of an eye, it has been eighty-seven years since the immortal came.

There is no time in cultivation, and there is no year when the cold ends.

Now Gu Dan finally has a deep understanding of this sentence.

Ningfang does not have those ordinary festivals. Under the cover of the formation, even the changes of cold and heat cannot be felt. After all, this is in the mountains thousands of feet high. If you really want to imitate the operation of the four seasons, the cost will be quite high.

Living there without being disturbed by anything, it seems that you really can't feel the passage of time.

"After five years of careful study, I have reached the fifth level of Qi training and finally mastered the method of "Qi Refining"!"

In the cave, there was a basin of clear water in front of Gu Dan.

He just made a gesture with his fingers, and the basin of water actually rippled slightly, but there was not a single spiritual energy fluctuation coming out.

"The method of refining Qi has nothing to do with spiritual energy, but with the soul, or in other words, the divine mind!"

Gu Dan's eyes were shining brightly. In the past five years of practice, in addition to being promoted to the fifth level of Qi training, the fifth petal of the thirty-six-petal lotus in the White Lotus Visualization Diagram finally opened, indicating that the strength of his soul had reached a new level.

It was only after the fifth petal of the lotus unfolded that he finally made a breakthrough in his practice of Qi refining!

"Refining Qi" only shows the specific method, but you have to figure out the threshold behind it by yourself.

Fortunately, his own foundation was already extraordinary, so he was able to reach the level where he could initially practice the Qi Refining Method in just five years.

"In the past eight years, I have made rapid progress. Not only has my path to immortality been smooth, but even the dawn of a breakthrough in martial arts is just around the corner!"

Gu was worried and happy.

Although the Qingmu Liquid is not in a perfect state due to various reasons and cannot reach the ultimate effectiveness of the alien spiritual roots, its cultivation speed is not inferior to that of the heavenly spiritual roots.

After eight years in the yellow level area, without taking any natural treasures or elixirs, he has already reached the fifth level of Qi training. This is the natural spiritual root! According to Gu Dan's perception, he is probably not far from the sixth level of Qi training!

At this rate, even if one stayed in the yellow level area, twenty years would be enough to cultivate to the late stage of Qi training, and one would even have a chance to break through to the foundation building stage.

Do you know what is called giftedness? It takes decades or even hundreds of years for inferior spiritual roots to achieve success, but for heavenly spiritual roots, it is as easy as eating and drinking! If they can be carefully cultivated and have enough elixirs, I am afraid that this time will be greatly shortened, and ten years of foundation building is not a dream.

With this kind of talent, even if placed in a real immortal sect, they would be trained as successors, and at least they could become a true disciple or even a Taoist disciple! "This is called accumulation of strength for a sudden burst of power!"

People feel refreshed when good things happen, and Gu's spirits are also quite uplifted. Good news comes one after another.

Judging from the previous situation, it is very likely that magical skills will be taught every time three of the thirty-six white lotus petals in the White Lotus Visualization Diagram open.

The "White Lotus Purifying Mind Method" previously taught to Gu Dan can be used to stabilize one's spirit and restore consciousness. Although it is not a true lethal technique, it is also very useful.

"Time, be on my side!"

Gu Dan hummed a little tune softly. He quite enjoyed the feeling of his strength growing stronger as time went by.

The latest novel is published first on Liu9shuba!

After a brief summary, Gu Dan found a bucket used for bathing in the secular world and prepared to start bleeding as the basic material for refining the acquired Qi.

It is naturally impossible to really do a mass grave. Let's not talk about whether it hurts the harmony of nature or goes against one's conscience. How can that thing be more useful than the blood of a grandmaster?

The blood of a master is one of the spiritual materials for refining talismans, and it is natural that the blood of a grand master is several levels higher!

What's more, he has a healing product like Qingmu Liquid, which can heal the flesh and blood ignited by the Grandmaster. What's wrong with bleeding? I cut myself! Gu Dan was about to take the next step when the Law Enforcement Hall token on his waist suddenly glowed brightly.

"Um?!"

Gu Dan was quite surprised that the Law Enforcement Hall token could also be used as a summoning symbol, so naturally it could summon everyone in the Law Enforcement Hall.

Once the Law Enforcement Hall token is called, all Law Enforcement Hall personnel must rush to the Law Enforcement Hall as soon as possible. If they dare to disobey, their identities will be stripped at the least, and severe punishment will be imposed at the worst! Over the years, this thing has never been used once! "What happened?"

Gu Dan raised his brows slightly and immediately closed the cave door.

Law Enforcement Hall.

At this moment, figures were rushing over quickly. Even the Law Enforcement Hall personnel who were in seclusion had to break out at this time.

Since the establishment of Ningfang, this was the first time that everyone had received a "summoning order"! Something must have happened that would affect the entire Xianfang, requiring all the law enforcement hall staff to be dispatched.

Sitting on the main seat of the Law Enforcement Hall, Huang Chao's face was as gloomy as water, and his eyes were cold. He no longer had the friendly demeanor he displayed in the past. He looked more like a sword that was about to be unsheathed, hidden in a box.

"Master, I wonder when this happened?"

Without waiting too long, all the law enforcement personnel who were already in the market arrived, and Lu Yu asked first.

"Huofang, there's a big problem."

Huang Chao glanced at everyone present and spoke slowly.

Everyone looked at each other, confused.

There is a problem in Huofang, what's going on in Guanningfang?

It can't be like last time, where I need Ning Fang's help to review something, right?

"Some time ago, all the caves in the Fire House were suddenly sold out."

Without keeping the topic in suspense, Huang Chao continued speaking.

"What?!"

As soon as these words were spoken, Lu Yu's face changed drastically.

Not only him, almost everyone in the Law Enforcement Hall changed their expressions.

It was just a simple piece of news, but it made everyone feel a chill in their hearts.

The cave is the core of the operation of the Immortal House.

All spiritual energy is born from the source of spiritual energy, and the Immortal House uses formations to divide the ownerless spiritual energy into three areas: earth level, yellow level, and mortal level, artificially dividing it into three levels.

The concentration of spiritual energy varies in different areas.

If one wants to practice in the ordinary areas, the process will inevitably be extremely slow, and even a hundred years of practice may not yield any results.

Therefore, if you want to join the Immortal House, you must do everything you can to gain a foothold in the yellow level area.

But not everyone can gain the appreciation of a foundation-building cultivator like Gu Dan, and be directly won over to solve the problem of the first pot of gold.

The vast majority of cultivators can only accumulate slowly and silently in the mortal-level areas, endure exploitation from the Immortal Square, and accumulate a fortune after decades, and then move to the yellow-level areas to begin their real practice.

In this way, the hope of the lower-level cultivators to move up is not directly destroyed, and they are forced to work for the Immortal House. The cave residence can be said to have played an indispensable role.

Moreover, the cave residence is a real necessity, which is directly related to the concentration of spiritual energy. There is no such thing as "lying flat". This is something that is truly related to strength!

If you really want to lie down, then don't practice Taoism, just go back to the mortal world and do whatever you want.

In this way, even if the lower-level cultivators knew that they had to do hard labor in the Immortal House, they had to endure it. After all, all six Immortal Houses were the same, and all crows were black.

But the prerequisite is that this endurance can really be exchanged for sufficient rewards!

If you have worked hard for the Immortal House for 40 or 50 years, and finally accumulated a considerable amount of wealth, and are excitedly preparing to go to the Yellow Level Area to buy a cave and enjoy a life of luxury, but suddenly find out that the cave is sold out, then what will happen? You can figure it out with your toes! "How can this be? How can this be!"

Lu Yu was so anxious that he jumped up and down.

Although this incident happened in Huofang, once trust is broken, it would be extremely difficult to repair it. Even if one puts in a hundred times the effort, there may not be much effect.

What's more, would those monks who have been exploited by the Fire Shop for decades really give up so easily?

Faintly, the smell of blood was already coming towards me!
