Chapter 134: The Elixir of Immortality
Gao Xian felt Zhu Qiniang's firm determination. After thinking about it, he also felt that this matter was feasible.
On the other hand, Zhu Qinniang is not afraid of taking risks, so what else can he say.
He nodded happily and said, "Okay, I'll help you protect the law."
When a cultivator is building his foundation, he loses all sense of the outside world and is extremely vulnerable. Therefore, when a cultivator is building his foundation, he must find the safest place.
"If I die, you must immediately abandon everything and go to Qingyun City. Before you succeed in building your foundation, don't refine Deer Horn Powder and Tiangui Pill anymore..."
Zhu Qinnan gave her final instructions and without waiting for Gao Xian to say anything else, she sat down on the wooden bed holding the thousand-year-old peach wood sword and began to regulate her breathing with her eyes closed.
This precious second-grade, top-grade wooden sword bears the imprint of Zhu Changsheng's powerful spiritual consciousness.
For a short period of time, she was unable to control the sword.
However, the Hunyuan Jinshen Jue she mainly practiced was based on the magic power of gold and wood, of which gold was the external and wood was the internal. The magic power of the wood was the foundation of this method.
Although she could not control the thousand-year-old peach wood sword, it was not difficult for her to borrow two or three points of the sword's pure wood power.
The spiritual energy level of Pegasus is not high, and this sword can make up for the lack of spiritual energy.
While Qinniang was concentrating on building her foundation, Gao Xian fell into deep thought.
The last words that Qi Niang said were actually meaningful, especially the words "leave everything behind".
Gao Xian sighed softly in his heart. It was easy to be a sophisticated and selfish person. He was not the kind of person who would sacrifice himself for others.
If a person always does stupid things, he is a real fool!
If a person never does anything stupid in his entire life, then his life would be too boring!
Gao Xian is a bit casual, so if he can't figure something out, he simply doesn't think about it. There's no need to worry about uncertain things.
He turned his gaze to the old Zhu on the ground. Qi Niang didn't care about him, but he found it a bit annoying and put it away with a storage talisman.
As for the robes and instruments on the table, he also put them away. They were all good things, and he always felt uneasy leaving them like this.
Gao Xian sat for a while and saw Da Niu pacing back and forth in the yard, looking anxious.
The child was obviously still very scared, and he didn't know that Zhu Changsheng was dead, so he was inevitably nervous.
Gao Xian went out and called Daniu, and gave him some food and water.
Although Daniu was a bit simple-minded, he was not stupid. He also saw that something was wrong.
But Gao Xian didn't say anything, and he didn't dare to ask more. He could only look at Gao Xian expectantly, hoping to get an explanation.
Facing Daniu's innocent gaze, Gao Xian felt a little embarrassed to lie to him, "Qiniang is building her foundation, we must protect her."
After hearing this, Daniu was surprised at first, then he looked happy, and then worried again.
Laying the foundation is a big hurdle, and once you succeed, you will naturally soar to heaven.
However, building the foundation is also extremely dangerous.
According to legend, it is extremely difficult for ordinary Qigong practitioners to build a foundation, and only one in ten can successfully do so.
If the foundation building fails, the person will be seriously injured and his cultivation will regress at best, or die on the spot at worst.
With such serious consequences, how could Daniu not worry about Zhu Qiniang?
Gao Xian was also worried, but having lived two lives and experienced so many things, he became more serious.
At least they won’t show their emotions directly on their faces. That would be meaningless and would only convey anxiety and make the big guy even more uneasy.
Qi Niang was so determined and brave, and with her determination, he felt that she would succeed.
If it doesn't work, it won't work. What else can I do? I have to accept the defeat!
There is no need to tell these truths to the big guys.
Gao Xian saw that Daniu looked like he would attract attention if he stayed outside. He pointed to the room next door and said, "Go to your room and rest first. Just keep quiet. I'll call you if there's anything else."
The earth house has two main rooms and half a side room, which is completely separated from the main room. It is usually used as a warehouse, just right for the big cow to rest.
The reason they didn't let Daniu go home was because they were afraid that Daniu would be caught and would inevitably have to give them both away.
As for Zhou Ye and his daughter, and Wan Zhen and his daughter, although they knew where to stay, there was no reason for them to betray them.
In fact, it doesn’t matter if someone comes. Even if Li Shuanglin comes, he will have a chance to kill the other party if he suddenly attacks.
After killing Zhu Changsheng, Gao Xian gained a deep understanding of the power of the great foundation-building cultivators, which also boosted his confidence.
The strength of a great monk who has established his foundation is tyrannical, but his body is very fragile.
The Green Lotus Flying Rainbow Sword has a mysterious power to break spells and can easily penetrate the protective Qi of a great foundation-building cultivator, including various spell shields.
As long as they can break through the defense, there will be not much difference between a foundation-building cultivator and an ordinary cultivator.
Of course, the risk was very high. He would not fight a Foundation Establishment Master to death unless it was absolutely necessary.
Gao Xian arranged for Daniu and returned to the room again.
What surprised Gao Xian was that after Zhu Qinnan entered into meditation, she just sat there motionless for half a day.
He used the Flower Mirror to observe Qinnan, and could only see that the magic power in her body was constantly accumulating.
The magical power had turned into a barrier, blocking the flower-detecting mirror, and he could not see any deeper changes.
Gao Xian originally wanted to learn some experience in foundation building, but after seeing this, he gave up this fantasy.
There was no point in staring at Qiniang, so he started fiddling with Zhu Changsheng's storage bag.
There are many items in the storage bag, but what Gao Xian is really interested in are a few jade slips.
Gao Xian took out several jade slips and examined them one by one with his spiritual sense, and soon he got a surprise.
Several jade slips record important secret methods of inheritance.
Among them, "Qingmu Lihuo Jue" and "Qingmu Xuangang" only have the first six levels of foundation building.
To be honest, these two secret techniques are both very sophisticated and powerful. Moreover, one of the two secret techniques is used to improve cultivation, and the other is a method of fighting. The two complement each other.
Unfortunately, the two secret techniques only have the foundation-building part, and there is no method of practicing Qi, so they cannot lead to the golden elixir.
This middle section is almost worthless.
Fortunately, there is a jade slip that records the complete "Elixir of Immortality", whose content is complicated and difficult.
Gao Xian took a quick look at it and found that "The Book of Immortality" was a peerless secret book for a low-level alchemist like him!
The "Elixir of Immortality" not only records several important elixir recipes, but more importantly, it provides a systematic and comprehensive explanation of the art of alchemy.
In particular, the water and fire alchemy method was explained in detail and meticulously.
He only skimmed through it, but he felt that he had benefited a lot. If he could learn the "Eternal Elixir Classic" thoroughly, it would be enough for him to advance to the second-level alchemy master.
In Gao Xian's opinion, although Zhu Changsheng has many good things, the most valuable one is this "Elixir of Immortality".
Although the Foundation Establishment Pill and the Ten Thousand Year Old Peach Wood Sword are precious, you can always buy them as long as you are willing to spend money.
The systematic alchemy secret technique in "The Book of Immortality" is a hundred times more valuable than the elixir recipe.
Under normal circumstances, it is impossible to buy it.
Gao Xian didn't dare to look at it any longer, mainly because Zhu Qinnan was building her foundation nearby and must not be disturbed.
The "Elixir of Immortality" is profound and exquisite, and it requires full concentration to read.
With nothing to do, he could only continue to tinker with the old man's storage bag.
By the next day, Gao Xian had searched through the storage bag and found some good things.
Among them is a Water Moon Sword, four inches long, with a rounded tail, shaped like a white-haired hairpin. The most precious thing about this flying sword is that it contains a set of "Water Moon Sword Tactics".
Gao Xian also had a strong spiritual sense and a magic mirror to see the more than 76,000 cloud patterns engraved on the flying sword. These cloud patterns added together were only the size of a grain of rice.
Judging from the style of the flying sword and the way the sword tactics were recorded, it should be a flying sword passed down from ancient times. I don't know how it fell into Zhu Changsheng's hands.
Although the Water Moon Sword is good, Gao Xian feels that this set of "Secrets of Cloud Patterns" is more valuable.
There are a total of ten thick books, which record detailed explanations of nine thousand commonly used cloud patterns.
In this world, high-end knowledge is very expensive. This set of "The Secret of Cloud Pattern" is a very useful reference book. It is equivalent to a cloud pattern dictionary.
Gao Xian guessed that the old man might have created this set of "Secret Interpretation of Cloud Patterns" in order to interpret the "Water Moon Sword Art".
He obtained a set of "Red Dragon Swallowing the Moon" from Nan Zhengxing. This method was recorded in cloud patterns, and he had never been able to understand it. With this set of cloud pattern secrets, it would be easy to learn "Red Dragon Swallowing the Moon".
Gao Xian sighed again, the foundation-building cultivators still have a lot of background, the Qi-training cultivators are really incomparable! Zhu Changsheng is simply a treasure old baby!
Please...collect 6...9...books...!
This book is rather boring, perfect for killing time.
At noon, Zhu Qinnan's magical power began to dissipate, and the surging force forced Gao Xian to retreat outside the house.
In order to prevent the aura from leaking, Gao Xian had to take out the Floating Cloud Flag and inlay ten spirit stones on the flagpole to activate this magical weapon.
As soon as the Floating Cloud Flag came out, it covered up the restless changes in magical power in the room.
The magic power in Zhu Qinnan's body became extremely thick and sticky. She seemed to be struggling to circulate it, and veins bulged on her face.
Although Gao Xian had a strong spiritual awareness, he didn't know how to help and could only watch from the side.
After a long time, the magic power circulating in Zhu Qinnan's body suddenly stagnated, causing her body and magic power to solidify together.
Feeling that the situation was not good, Zhu Qinnan took the second foundation-building pill without hesitation.
The foundation-building pill has a powerful spiritual effect and can also stimulate the potential of the cultivator. However, if the foundation is not built, the medicinal effect of the foundation-building pill will also cause great harm to the body.
If one fails to successfully build the foundation after taking two foundation-building pills, the final result will be that his magic power will explode and he will die on the spot.
But having come to this point, there is no way back.
Whether for herself or for Gao Xian, she must move forward bravely!
With the help of this foundation-building pill, Zhu Qinnan's magic power solidified throughout her body suddenly boiled over. Under the guidance of her spiritual consciousness, streams of magic power converged at her brows like hundreds of rivers converging into the sea.
Under the impact of the huge magical power, an invisible spiritual orifice deep between the eyebrows was suddenly opened, and an indescribable pain spread out.
Zhu Qinnan had a strong will and was able to remain calm despite the severe pain. She put all her consciousness into this spiritual orifice.
The spiritual orifice seemed like a bottomless abyss, and no matter how much spiritual consciousness was invested, there was no response. Others might have hesitated, but Zhu Qiniang was unshakable. She had an indifferent personality but was firm and resolute, and her resoluteness burst out in the endless darkness.
Suddenly, a point of flaming blue-gold spiritual light appeared in the deep spiritual orifice, instantly illuminating the spiritual orifice, and illuminating all the spiritual orifices and magical powers in Zhu Qinnan's body, including her internal organs, bones, and muscles, revealing all visible and invisible existences.
Through this true spirit, Zhu Qinnan completely integrated visible and invisible forces.
Once this is accomplished, 90% of the foundation building is complete.
Finally, under the control of the true spirit, the magic power in every spiritual orifice, which was originally as light as air, is transformed into as condensed as water.
A total of nine spiritual orifices are interconnected, constantly breathing in spiritual energy and transforming it into water-like magic power.
The spiritual orifices became springs, and pure magic power flowed out like spring water, continuously penetrating into the internal organs, limbs and bones.
As the transformation of magic power was completed, her body also completed a transformation from the inside out.
When Zhu Qinnan opened her eyes, she saw Gao Xian sitting quietly not far away.
It was dark outside, and the room was even darker. But in Zhu Qiniang's eyes, everything was clear as if it were daytime.
Under such a sharp gaze, Gao Xian's face was still so handsome and flawless. This was also the reason why she chose Gao Xian in the first place, he was so handsome! But she never expected that this oily little man would be so reliable and save her from danger many times.
Especially this time, Gao Xian drew his sword directly against Zhu Changsheng for her.
You have to know that Zhu Changsheng is a great foundation-building cultivator. For Qigong cultivators, being a great foundation-building cultivator means being invincible.
Gao Xian's decisiveness and bravery shocked her. Compared with Gao Xian's usual caution, this kind of bravery and decisiveness was even more valuable.
However, at this point, she didn't need to say anything more to Gao Xian. It was nothing more than sharing life and death together and never abandoning him.
After going through so much, Gao Xian's appearance is no longer a big deal.
This time she succeeded in building her foundation, and she would be able to protect Gao Xian in the future! The two of them no longer had to be so cautious and fearful all day long.
When Zhu Qinnan thought of this, a happy smile appeared on her face.
Gao Xian had already seen the flash of lightning in Qi Niang's eyes, and he smiled, "I knew you could do it."
"Luckily, you're here." Zhu Qinnan stood up and walked to Gao Xian. Although she spoke little, her eyes were full of tenderness as she looked at Gao Xian.
It was the first time that Gao Xian saw Qinnan in this state. She was so gentle both mentally and physically, and even a bit charming.
It's like a pool of spring water, making people want to dive in and swim freely.
His heart beat rapidly twice, and the blood in his body seemed to heat up.
Gao Xian smiled and put his arm around Qi Niang's waist, "It's done, do you want to have some sex to celebrate?"
He leaned close to Qi Niang's ear and whispered in a low voice, somewhat embarrassedly: "I want to taste the taste of a great cultivator who has established his foundation."
Zhu Qiniang thought about it seriously and said, "Let's get down to business first."
It took her several days to build her foundation, and she had no idea how the sect would react.
Time is precious now and cannot be wasted on this.
She then comforted Gao Xian softly, "I have now completed my foundation building, and my vital yin is strong. During our dual cultivation, I can help you break through the bottleneck of your cultivation. You are making rapid progress in your cultivation now, so don't waste this opportunity so easily."
Gao Xian felt a little embarrassed by Qi Niang's seriousness. He nodded quickly, "Business is more important, business is more important."
Zhu Qiniang said: "After I completed the foundation building, I condensed two innate magical powers, the indestructible golden body and the thunderous lion roar."
Gao Xian was somewhat surprised: "I heard that completing the foundation building will give rise to innate magical powers. You actually have two innate magical powers. How amazing."
"It was the demon tiger crystal core you gave me. I have never been able to comprehend the secret technique since I absorbed it. This time when I was building my foundation, all my strength was integrated to generate the second magical power, the Thunder Lion's Roar.
"Li Shuanglin is only at the second level of foundation building. With my two innate magical powers, I am able to compete with him."
The indestructible golden body comes from the magical power of the Hunyuan Golden Body Art, which makes her have a golden body and iron bones. Not only is her body extremely strong, she can even fight against magical weapons of the same level, and she also has incredible and tyrannical strength.
Most importantly, the indestructible body has a super strong recovery ability. Even if it is seriously injured, it can recover in a very short time.
It is common knowledge in the world of cultivators that physical cultivators are more powerful than cultivators of the same level. Her indestructible body allows her to fully utilize the advantages of physical cultivation.
The Thunder Sound Lion's Roar is quite special. She had originally practiced the secret art of Lion's Roar, combined with the power of the demon tiger crystal core, and fused with the power of the wood-type thunder technique in the Hunyuan Golden Body Art, which resulted in the Thunder Sound Lion's Roar.
As far as she was concerned, the Thunder Lion's Roar carried some of the most powerful and masculine power of thunder magic. At the foundation-building stage, being able to use thunder magic freely was a great advantage.
This was her innate magical power, which could be activated as soon as she thought of it. It was even more powerful in battle. Although Li Shuanglin was at the second level of foundation building, he might not be her opponent. However, she was introverted and gloomy, and did not like to brag, so she naturally would not tell Gao Xian about this.
Zhu Qiniang said sternly: "There is someone behind Li Shuanglin. If we want to stay in Lianyun Sect, we can't kill him. But this person is arrogant and conceited. We have to have a good talk with him..."
