Chapter 366: The Great Loss of Shou Yuan (Second Update)
In the past, when I woke up from a dream, most of them were Shen Luo who completed some special things, such as killing ghosts in mountain villages, destroying demons in ancient temples, saving people in Changshou Village, etc., although there is no unified standard, but most of them are after completing certain things.
But this time in the pagoda, he hadn't finished the defeat of the thirty-six heavenly soldiers that the Golden Armor Heavenly General had said, but suddenly lost consciousness and was teleported back to reality.
It was like halfway through a dream, but it suddenly stopped and woke up.
He lay on the bed and meditated for a moment, but he really couldn't figure it out.
"No matter, get up first. Shen Luo couldn't figure it out, so he didn't think about it anymore, and planned to get up and cultivate.
However, as soon as he tried to lift his arm, he felt as if it had been filled with lead, and with it was accompanied by a sharp ache and a strong feeling of sleepiness all over his body.
Shen Luo was surprised in his heart, but he sat up despite the discomfort around him, and his vision suddenly became blurred, the tables and chairs in the room began to distort, and the curtain in front of him swayed like a living thing.
He didn't have the slightest strength to resist, so he lay down weakly, and the back of his head slammed heavily on the jade pillow.
His whole body trembled like chaff, and his mind seemed to stir up a pulp, and he couldn't think at all, only a familiar feeling crept up into his heart, and a bottomless hole seemed to appear in his body, which was frantically devouring his life force.
The intense pain tore at his consciousness little by little, making him distorted, but he couldn't make a sound, it was obviously early in the morning, but the sky around him gradually darkened, like a black curtain, gradually enveloping Shen Luo.
His eyes were once again plunged into darkness, and he fell asleep again.
......
I don't know how long it took, Shen Luo's eyelashes on the bed trembled slightly, and he finally woke up again.
"Father's ......"
At a glance, he saw the middle-aged man with slightly frosty sideburns, sitting beside him with a concerned face.
"Luo'er, what's wrong with you?" Shen Yuange frowned and asked worriedly.
"If something goes wrong in the practice of the exercises, it won't get in the way. Shen Luo opened his mouth and hesitated for a moment before speaking.
"I didn't see you out to eat in the morning, I thought you were busy with cultivation and delayed, but I didn't see you until the afternoon, I was a little uneasy, so I pushed the door in. As a result, I saw you lying on the bed with a blue face, no matter how you were called, I couldn't wake you up, it was like when you were first invaded by yin, alas, ......" Shen Yuange couldn't help but think of what happened back then, and sighed.
"It's all brought about by the backlash of the exercises, it's nothing, and when I meditate and recuperate, it won't matter. Shen Luo smiled and sat up strongly.
He said it lightly, but in his heart he actually understood what was going on.
He was no stranger to the feeling of being devoured by his vitality before, he had already experienced it once when he came back from the dream for the second time, and the feeling now was exactly the same as it was then, and the current situation was even worse.
"Father, you can prepare some herbs for me, and I will soak in the medicinal bath in a while. As Shen Luo spoke, he got off the bed, walked slowly to the table, picked up pen and ink and wrote on rice paper.
The recipe for the medicinal bath belongs to the Bai family, although there are many precious medicinal materials in it, but there are no immortal herbs, for the Shen family, who run their own pharmacy, it is not difficult to get together.
"Okay, you wait, I'll get it right away. Your second mother has already asked the kitchen to prepare the meal, and I will bring it to you in a while. Shen Yuange hurriedly took it, turned around and went out.
Shen Luo didn't have much appetite, and originally wanted to refuse, but he nodded anyway.
After Shen Yuange left, Shen Luo glanced out of the door and found that it was already dark outside, and it was approaching dusk.
He walked to the side of the bed, sat back down, looked at the jade pillow on the bed, and a complex emotion surged in his heart.
Many of his opportunities are because of the jade pillow, but when he exhausted his longevity twice, he also started because of the jade pillow, and he really didn't know whether to love it or hate it?
However, after recalling a few dream crossings, Shen Luo gradually figured out one thing, that is, the loss of his life force was not directly caused by the jade pillow, but seemed to be related to the experience of death in the dream.
When Shen Luo entered the mountain village in his first dream, he had come back from the dead, and although he was not injured when he came back, he was extremely sore, and when he fought with the demon wolf in the second dream, he was also resurrected, and after he came back, he almost ran out of life.
This time, he died more than 100 times in that pagoda, and the loss of his qi and blood foundation was unimaginable, which would lead to the consumption of more than 200 years of lifespan in his reality.
The reason why he woke up from the dream in a hurry this time is probably because Shouyuan is about to run out and can no longer support him to continue to travel through the dream realm.
After thinking about it for a long time, Shen Luo hugged Yuan in both hands and began to close his eyes and look inward.
After looking at it for a while, he slowly opened his eyes, and there was nothing unusual about the dantian and law veins in his body, but the loss of qi and blood in his body was terrible, and the loss of vitality in his body was also serious.
Referring to the previous situation, Shen Luo estimated that his lifespan would only be two or three years left at most.
This big dream actually brought him back to the situation when he died a few years ago.
Originally, I planned to use the experience of enlightenment in the dream to improve my cultivation as soon as possible, so that I could go to Putuo Mountain to find my fiancée, but now it seems that I am afraid that I will not be able to do it in a short time.
At night, Shen Luo soaked in the medicine barrel, silently running the nameless exercises, speeding up the absorption of medicinal power.
He still remembered that last time, Luo Shi had said that if he wanted to live, in addition to increasing his cultivation and constantly extending the limit of longevity, he was to find the elixir fairy grass to prolong his life.
According to common sense, as long as the cultivation enters the Bigu period, the monk can increase his longevity by about two hundred years, but if he wants to change his longevity, he must advance to the soul condensing period.
Shen Luo is now just in the early stage of the valley, and he is too far away from the soul condensation period of the next great realm, according to his qualifications and the current cultivation speed, let alone two or three years, even if he is given another twenty or thirty years, he has no confidence in being able to cultivate.
In other words, the situation today is worse than it was then.
"Since you can't do it with ordinary methods, you have to find some shortcuts. Shen Luo let out a long breath of turbid air in his mouth, and the whole person had recovered some of his spirits.
At this time, he suddenly remembered that Master Luo had mentioned to him back then that in addition to improving his cultivation as soon as possible, if he wanted to prolong his lifespan, he could only rely on immortal medicine and spirit grass.
Back then, Shen Luo didn't say that he hadn't seen any immortal medicine spirit grass, and he didn't even know what fairy medicine spirit grass was in the world.
Now it is different, when he was on Fangcun Mountain, he had read the book "Fairy Herbs", and he already knew a lot about the "grass and trees", "insects and beasts", "ores" and other types of elixir fairy grasses in the world.
Just knowing these elixirs, Shen Luo also clearly knew their value, any of them were priceless and unavoidable treasures.
Even if he was lucky enough to be able to meet it, he simply wouldn't have enough immortal jade to buy.
Thinking of this, Shen Luo couldn't help but feel a little sad, thinking about whether to go back to Jianye and ask the Bai family for help.
But at this moment, a flash of inspiration suddenly occurred in his mind, and he remembered something.
