Chapter 692: Cultivating Ancient Techniques
"If you don't practice the physical body, you only cultivate the Yuan Shen, and you will eventually become a small path, and only by cultivating both inside and outside can you become a real strong person......"
Qiao Yun's mind kept floating with the last words in the jade slip, and his heart was shaken, although he knew that this was only the understanding of the person who portrayed the jade slip on the path of cultivation, and the thousands of monks in this world could also seek the great way without refining the body, but Qiao Yun also agreed with the strength of internal and external dual cultivation in his heart.
Soon, Qiao Yun took a deep breath, put down the jade slip in his hand, and began to practice according to the body refining method called "Gu Jue" recorded in the jade slip.
Although this "ancient formula" is only a thousand words, it is jerky and difficult to understand, and it is very difficult to speak, Qiao Yun took a full half a day to memorize the mantra and began to try to run the mantra.
Under Qiao Yun's continuous attempts, the mantra gradually worked, and gradually became more mature from the beginning of jerky, at the same time, Qiao Yun only felt that his limbs and bones had an indescribable itching, as if there were tens of thousands of ants swimming in his body.
With this feeling, Qiao Yun was not surprised, Qiao Yun knew that this was the mantra of his own operation that had gradually produced an effect.
With continuous cultivation, Qiao Yun has entered a state of self-forgetfulness, completely ignoring the Xiao Killing Qi around him and constantly taking away his own flesh and blood, and even Qiao Yun has forgotten to run the Mental Method Mantra to resist Xiao Killing Qi, just frantically running the "Ancient Formula" over and over again.
I don't know how long it has been, when there was a "click" sound in Qiao Yun's body, Qiao Yun's body was shocked, and he suddenly opened his eyes, with a trace of indescribable joy in his eyes.
Qiao Yun knew that he had cultivated the ancient technique to the early stage of the Mortal Realm, and it could be said that he had entered the threshold of the way to refining the body.
As soon as he stopped the operation of the ancient formula, Qiao Yun felt the pain from the bones all over his body, and looked down at his bloodstained body, Qiao Yun found that a large amount of flesh and blood on his body had been taken away by Xiao Killing Qi, and many places exposed the white bones.
Forcibly enduring the pain, Qiao Yun continued to run the ancient formula, which is strange to say, as the ancient recipe continued to operate, the pain that tore through the whole body was reduced a lot, but then there was that unbearable pain and itching.
Qiao Yun gradually reined in his mind, endured the pain of his limbs, and frantically ran the ancient recipe around the sky, forging his body, from skin to flesh and blood, and then from flesh and blood to muscles and veins, to bone marrow, to the sea of knowledge......
Seven days later, Qiao Yun came to the middle stage of the Mortal Realm, but Qiao Yun did not stop......
Half a month later, Qiao Yun reached the late stage of the Mortal Realm, but Qiao Yun was still indifferent and continued to run the ancient trick crazily......
Until another month passed, Qiao Yun's body bones burst out with a crisp sound, and at the same time, the momentum on Qiao Yun's body was also faintly rising, this was not the power of cultivation, but a kind of power from the flesh.
Slowly opening his eyes, Qiao Yun's eyes crossed with a touch of joy, in less than two months, he had actually cultivated the ancient technique to the Great Perfection of the Mortal Realm, and he was only one step away from successfully advancing to the Mortal Realm Double Clay Body Realm.
However, Qiao Yun knew in his heart that the reason why he was able to refine his body so quickly was definitely related to the raging Xiao Killing Qi here, and with the improvement of Qiao Yun's body refining cultivation, Qiao Yun gradually understood the truth that the body refining could not be broken or established during the process.
This also has something in common with refining weapons, just like a monk refining a magic weapon, in the process of the physical body being destroyed and recondensed again and again, the physical body can also be quickly forged, stimulating the infinite potential of the physical body, and making the monk more powerful.
Looking down at his right arm and chest, Qiao Yun found that the original deep and revealing wound was gone, and the intense pain disappeared, only the blood stains on his body still proved that he had been seriously injured before.
Feeling the tyrannical killing aura around him, he couldn't hurt himself in the slightest, and after only a few slight pains, Qiao Yun couldn't help but look up to the sky and laugh, but in this laughter, there was also a kind of aftertaste of escaping death.
Qiao Yun knew that if he hadn't happened to come across the corpse of this middle-aged monk and obtained this body refining exercise, he would definitely be lucky enough to enter the valley this time.
At the same time, Qiao Yun also secretly sighed at Shao Feiyu's caution, a monk who was in the late stage of foundation building did not do it directly when he saw it, but first arranged the formation to attract himself, and also chose such a valley entrance to eliminate the doubts in his heart, until he entered the formation before revealing his true face. If it weren't for his own determination, he would not hesitate to detonate the best magic weapon, the Cang Silent Sword, and was seriously injured and rushed into the valley, this time it would definitely be impossible to escape the hands of this person.
After this incident, Qiao Yun learned a little more lesson, even if he has never met before, he may secretly kill himself because of a relationship he doesn't know, so he can never let go of the caution in his heart.
Suppressing these thoughts in his heart, Qiao Yun spent half a day quickly running the mental mantra and restoring his true qi to the fullest state.
At this time, Qiao Yun also found that the aura in this valley was actually even richer than the outside, but there was the existence of Xiao Killing Qi, Qiao Yun had been resisting desperately before, and there was no time to feel the richness of the aura.
Glancing at the storage bag around his waist, there was already a tendency to break, Qiao Yun hurriedly took out his storage ring from the storage bag, and moved all the contents of the storage bag into the storage ring. As for the spirit beast bag, Qiao Yun could only grasp it in his hand to prevent it from continuing to be eroded by Xiao Killing Qi.
After doing all this, Qiao Yun picked up the storage ring of the middle-aged monk on the side, and his divine sense quickly probed into it, pulling hundreds of high-grade spirit stones and tens of thousands of middle-grade spirit stones to slowly move outward.
It's just that in the next moment, Qiao Yun was shocked in his heart, the storage space that was already on the verge of collapse, under the movement of these tens of thousands of spirit stones, was about to collapse in an instant, Qiao Yun didn't have time to think about it, and hurriedly used his divine sense to suddenly take it out.
"Click!"
The storage ring in Qiao Yun's hand collapsed instantly, turning into scattered fragments, and beside Qiao Yun, there were only two hundred more high-grade spirit stones, and the remaining spirit stones had been left in the storage space with the collapse of the storage ring.
Without too many regrets, after Qiao Yun put two hundred high-grade spirit stones into his storage ring, he glanced at the middle-aged monk beside him, although this person was dead, but in Qiao Yun's heart, he accepted his life-saving grace.
"Offended!" Qiao Yun clasped his fists at the middle-aged monk, and then put the middle-aged monk's body into his storage ring.
Among the many jade slips he had looked through before, Qiao Yun had seen an identity jade slip and learned that this middle-aged monk should be a sect monk named Shi Dingzong.
Qiao Yun planned to wait until he got out of the Illusory Flame Realm to find this sect and return the corpse of the middle-aged monk, which could be regarded as repaying the kindness of the middle-aged monk.
After slapping a few clear water on his body, Qiao Yun washed away the remaining bloodstains, but was stunned to find that his clothes had all been broken under this washing, but fortunately, there were no other monks here, and Qiao Yun didn't have to worry too much.
Standing up slowly, Qiao Yun did not intend to leave the valley, but looked at the even more violent killing aura in the depths of the valley, and the next moment, Qiao Yun left the mountain and walked quickly towards the depths of the valley.
As it continued to deepen, Xiao Killing's aura swept over like a sea of mountains, sweeping in the space around Qiao Yun. Soon, blood holes appeared on Qiao Yun's body again, and Qiao Yun was not shocked or happy, and quickly used the ancient trick to refine his body.
In this way, whenever the Xiao Killing Qi around Qiao Yun could hardly cause damage, Qiao Yun would go deeper again, and only after the Xiao Killing Qi could cut his skin did Qiao Yun stop practicing.
In this kind of pain of constantly enduring the tearing and recondensing of his body, Qiao Yun's body cultivation has also risen rapidly, and he has gradually touched the barrier of the mud body realm, and he is about to break through.
A month later, Qiao Yun had successfully advanced to the early stage of the Mud Body Realm, and Qiao Yun's body cultivation was still rising, but Qiao Yun gradually found that the terrain in the depths of this valley was getting lower and lower, and he actually began to descend.
Although the terrain became lower, Qiao Yun didn't care, as long as the killing aura in the depths was stronger, Qiao Yun would keep walking down until the refining body could no longer advance an inch. Because Qiao Yun had already discovered that this valley was definitely an excellent place for refining the body, if he missed it, he was afraid that it would be difficult to find such a place.
Three days later, Qiao Yun found that he had entered a huge cave, and the killing aura in the cave was even more violent, as if there were countless shouts of killing whistling in his ears, about to crush himself to pieces. And Qiao Yun did not pause or hesitate, and continued to walk to the next step.
Half a month later, Qiao Yun's footsteps suddenly stopped, and he suddenly opened his eyes, at this time Qiao Yun had reached the middle stage of the mud body realm, but there was no road in front of Qiao Yun.
Qiao Yun found that before he knew it, the cave had shrunk to the extent that it could only accommodate one person, and although the front was still going down, it was no longer able to allow one person to pass through.
The divine sense swept to the depths of the cave filled with black gas, and Qiao Yun vaguely saw that there was something in the black gas, and the killing qi that covered the sky and the sun in this valley seemed to be continuously generated from it.
Qiao Yun's eyes flashed, and the next moment, his right hand clenched into a fist violently, and with all the cultivation power of the middle stage of the Mud Body Realm, he smashed it fiercely towards the top of the cave in front of him.
With a "boom", the entire cave seemed to tremble under Qiao Yun's punch, and a large amount of gravel continued to fall from the top of the cave, and Qiao Yun completely ignored the gravel smashed on his body, stepped on the gravel on the ground and took a few steps forward before smashing his fist to the top of the cave again.
After dozens of punches, Qiao Yun smashed out a passage and came to the deepest part of the cave, and at the same time, Qiao Yun also saw the black, broken spear in the deepest part of the cave, a half-cut body stuck in the rock.
