In troubled times, the best means of self-protection is to improve one's strength, and if you want to survive, you must be stronger than others.
He made a more rational adjustment of the current practice plan: the two monthly ascension platform combinations were revised to three times, the semi-retreat state was adjusted to full retreat, and daily meals and breaks were carried out in a secret room.
The initiate of Heyuan can enhance the Yuan Yuan True Qi in his body, and he can break through the fifth layer realm as soon as possible by going into full retreat, and the Five Poisons Divine Palm will be completed.
At present, the most important thing is the cultivation of the fifth layer of the Five Poison Divine Palms.
Among the five poisons, Ding Peng has been trained into a poisonous snake, a toad, a gecko, a scorpion, and only a centipede; among the five elements, Ding Peng has been trained into fire, water, metal, and earth, and only has the attributes of wood.
The cultivation of the fifth layer is precisely to take the poison of the centipede of the wood attribute as the main body of cultivation.
Today, Ding Peng has been in retreat for 37 days, and his cultivation has been promoted to level 135, and when he reaches level 140, he can practice at the fifth level, which seems to be only level 5, and it is not so easy to reach it.
The first is the contribution points, from the level, Ding Peng has spent tens of thousands of points, and the level, this number is at least twice as many as before.
The second is the martial arts barrier, although Ding Peng's poison skills are systematically endorsed, after the system is improved and perfected, there are very few hidden dangers, and the cultivation method is also the most scientific and reasonable plan, and with the principle of mutual growth and restraint of the five elements, a self-consistent internal circulation can be formed, which can automatically eliminate some dangers in the cultivation process, but this is it, after Ding Peng stepped into the fifth layer of cultivation, he also felt the turbulence of qi in his body from time to time, and the toxins suppressed by the internal force showed a rebound from time to time, which all showed that he was on the verge of going mad.
The deeper the skill, the more likely it is to have a fork, and the more serious the consequences of going mad, in the final analysis, the body cannot control more and more power, and the greater the strength, the more effective control of the macro and subtlety of the body.
According to Ding Peng's cultivation, not to mention the magical effect of the Yuan Yuan True Qi, only in the five poison gods, he is enough to rank among the first-class masters in the rivers and lakes, the reason why he has never been trapped by the fire and demons, he must be grateful for the protection of the system, but no matter how versatile the system is, it cannot reverse the objective law, martial arts training is to make people's flesh produce extraordinary power, but the growth of this power has its limit, this limit and the body is related to the spirit, a certain degree of the body can not withstand the power beyond its limit, in the same way, a certain degree of spirit can not effectively control the power beyond its limit。
The only way is to evolve physically and mentally in the process of increasing strength. The three develop in tandem and make progress together.
In fact, the spirit of the person who practices martial arts is constantly improving, but this kind of improvement is generally unable to catch up with the speed of the increase in strength, which is the natural limitation of the human body, once the strength grows too fast, the body and spirit lose effective control over it, then there will be a risk of going crazy at this time.
However, going mad is not inevitable, but there is a risk, it is possible, in this case, as long as you are careful, cautious, or even stop practicing and wait patiently for a period of time, waiting for the physical, mental, and powerful to re-enter the balance, then going mad can be avoided.
It's just that martial arts practitioners are competitive, good fame and fortune, it's okay to skip meals for a day, but it's very difficult not to practice for a day, not to mention waiting for an unknown time, this time can be short, or long, no one can know how much time they have to wait, the entire martial arts, tens of millions of people in the rivers and lakes, how many people can be patient?
People with such a good temper and such patience have long since withdrawn from the rivers and lakes and lived in seclusion.
Therefore, relatively speaking, decent martial arts pay attention to peace and gradual progress, compared with the evil martial arts that are eager for quick success and quick profit, the probability of going mad is much smaller, which is an improvement from martial arts, preventing some dangers of going mad.
Some cult characters don't have such good luck, they themselves practice martial arts that are eager for quick success, and most of them are perverse and irritable, and for them, it is almost the calamity that every cult character must go through. The consequences of going mad are big and small, serious ones can make people fatal, abolish cultivation, and small ones may also leave a variety of sequelae, so those old demons have gone through the danger of going mad many times, and their bodies have been devastated, but everyone has more or less summed up some secret ways to deal with going mad.
Speaking of Ding Peng here, what he cultivates is not decent martial arts, but also borrowing from foreign objects, these characteristics are very easy to cause the death of the devil, all such martial arts can be cultivated to the extreme are all amazing geniuses, plus there is great luck to create, although Ding Peng is not a genius, but he has a system, the system has ensured him all the way through the four-layer realm, directly to the fifth-layer realm, and it is about to be the Great Perfection of the Five Poison Divine Palms, but his calamity is also coming.
The assassination of Conduct interrupted his practice, and after figuring out some links, Ding Peng went into retreat again.
The fifth layer of cultivation is the poison of the spirit wood.
In terms of toxicity alone, the poison of the spirit wood may not be more powerful than the first four poisons, but the wonderful thing about the five poisons is the way of the five elements of the cycle of mutual restraint, when cultivating the first kind of red fire poison, you only need to consider the stability of one of the five elements, and when you enter the second layer, you need to consider the connection and stability between the two attributes, and the difficulty system is doubled...... By analogy, the cultivation of the fifth layer needs to consider the changes between the five attributes of gold, wood, water, fire, and earth, so cultivating the poison of the spirit wood is not just cultivating this one poison, but actually the way of circulating and stabilizing the five kinds of poison, and the difficulty system is at least ten times more than that of the first layer.
The system selected the three most suitable poisons for Ding Peng, all of which were highly poisonous with wood attributes. After careful consideration, Ding Peng chose one of them.
This one is not the most powerful and domineering, nor is it the most cost-effective, but it is the best to cultivate, and it is the most suitable for Ding Peng's current situation.
Ding Peng also faintly felt that something was wrong with his body.
The poison he chose was called "centipede wood".
This poison is so mysterious that you can't even tell if it's an animal or a plant, it's a bit like the real-life Cordyceps sinensis, which is technically a wonderful animal and plant companion.
According to the records of the Poison Sutra, in the land of poisonous camphor on the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau, there used to be a giant centipede, called the thousand-legged centipede, which is usually more than five meters in size, and can even eat tigers and leopards raw, and can also spit out a large poisonous mist, so the thousand-legged centipede basically has no natural enemies.
Since we talk about "basic", there must still be an enemy that can deal with it, and that is a tree that cannot move itself.
This tree is called the Ghost Tree, which is also highly poisonous, and the Ghost Tree is a veritable plant, but it likes to eat the flesh and blood of animals.
The surface of the ghost tree secretes a terrifying microorganism called the Phanthropede, which can be infested by the Phanthropede if it is unfortunate enough to get close.
The spotted centipede that is invaded by the ghost filament will gradually lose its rationality, it will take the ghost tree as the center, wrap its huge body around the tree, and then as the reproduction of the ghost filament fungus in the body increases, it will wrap its body tighter and tighter, and even part of the body will be tightly strangled into the tree.
The ghost filament fungus continues to multiply, eventually breaking through the centipede's skin and growing outside its body, and if this trend continues, the centipede will die, but this is not in line with the purpose of the ghost tree.
At this time, under the remote control of the ghost tree, the ghost filament will divide into two parts, one will invade the brains of the spotted centipede and control its intelligence, and the other will invade its thousands of feet and limbs to control its movements.
Eventually, the ghost tree will not let the centipede die, and after the centipede is completely controlled, the ghost filament will drive it to hunt, and part of the prey it catches will be kept for the centipede itself, and most of the rest will be provided to the ghost tree through body contact.
This symbiotic relationship will last for a long time, the ghost tree and the millipede centipede are both extremely long-lived creatures, only one of them dies suddenly, this relationship will end halfway, and when the symbiotic period reaches more than ten years, the body of the two people in contact with each other will be solidified, and the organs and tissues inside can be shared, forming a new poison in this tissue, which is a new poison that is different from the poison of the centipede and the poison of the ghost tree.
It is actually a hybrid poison, a poison mutated from the poison of the centipede and the poison of the ghost tree.
