289 Jiangnan is over

In the starry sky at night, countless stars twinkle.

The earth was silent, only the cold river wind was whistling with big waves, fiercely hitting the cliff of Jiaoji Mountain, and was torn to pieces by the hard cliff.

Su Chen was in a ruined temple in Jiaoji Mountain, eating grilled fatty fish, and chatting with Zhuang Luyi without a word.

He had read some books in Penglai Immortal Sect earlier, and there were some descriptions of the types of ghost cultivation and cultivation methods, but the records were not very detailed.

chatting with Zhuang Luyi, I know a lot more about it.

The cultivation method of ghost cultivation is different from that of human immortal cultivators, whether it is zombies or skeletons, the inside of their bodies has been corrupted by ghost qi, and they can no longer absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth and food through the spiritual essence, and transform it into vitality, so as to cultivate and strengthen their own original spirit.

As for the ghosts, ghosts, etc., they don't even have a body, let alone a body.

The only way for the ghost clan to cultivate is to directly plunder the primordial spirits of living beings such as the human race, demon clan, and spirits, and rob the vitality to enhance their own primordial god cultivation.

Once this vitality touches the evil ghost qi, it is easy to quickly be infected by the ghost qi and turn into a dark and cold ghost qi.

Zhuang Luyi's delicate body was still intact under the ice of the eternal cold crystal. But inside, it was also eroded by ghost qi, and she could only cultivate in the way of ghost cultivation.

For a long time, she had been sleeping in the river. Boats on the river are often blown over by strong winds, corpses fall into the water, and even livestock and the like. She inhaled all kinds of Yin Soul Qi in Jiaoji Cave, so that she could gradually cultivate into a Jindan ghost cultivator.

Therefore, the realm promotion of the ghost clan monk is too domineering, almost unrestrained, as long as there is enough vitality to plunder, he can continue to be promoted explosively in a very short period of time.

Of course, the price paid is also extremely huge, and most of the ghost cultivators will not see the light of day. Even if it was a high-level ghost cultivator above the Jindan stage, it was easily obliterated by the might of heaven and earth.

The cultivation method of ghost cultivation made Su Chen's heart move.

This cultivation method of ghost cultivation is almost the same as the "Devouring Yuan Codex" cultivated by the green-robed old monster of the Demon Demon Alliance. Because it is directly plundering the vitality, the cultivation is undoubtedly much faster than the normal cultivation.

Su Chen had scruples in his heart, worried that there were many hidden dangers, and he didn't dare to try it easily.

The fighting method of the ghost cultivator is also extremely strong. Such as the Nether, Ghost Fire, and so on. But Zhuang Luyi has been in Jiaoji Cave, he was just born and was struck by lightning, and he has not yet had time to master many ghost cultivation tactics, so that the combat power of Jindan in the early stage cannot be exerted by a few percent.

Su Chen was still not at ease with Zhuang Luyi, so he could only seal her in the ghost banner first.

It would take a long time, at least a few years, for the Demon Banner to subtly refine her into a Banner Soul and obey his orders.

Her body sealed by the Eternal Cold Crystal was also kept in the Sumeru Ring for the time being. When she was tamed by the Ghost Banner, he would return the body of the Eternal Han Crystal to Zhuang Luyi in the future.

Summoning ghost flags and blue ice flash butterflies, Su Chen now has two Jindan-level means in his hands. It's just that the Summoning Ghost Banner Neizhuang Luyi has not yet been tamed, and it can't be used for the time being. And the life span of the Blue Ice Flash Butterfly still has a few years left, and I don't know if it can step into the real Jindan realm from the pseudo Jindan in just a few years.

...

The next day, at dawn.

Jian Ye City, Ning Wangfu.

Because yesterday outside Jianye City, a human immortal and a ghost immortal fought the law, and even caused a thunderstorm, which caused countless officials and people in the entire Jianye City to be at peace and stay awake all night.

King Ning's Mansion was naturally no exception, King Ning and the officials discussed the matter all night, but to no avail. The whereabouts of the human immortal and the ghost immortal are unknown, and they don't know what the outcome will be.

Early in the morning, a young man came to King Ning's mansion, claiming to be a master of the world and a descendant of the immortal family, and came to treat King Ning's illness.

When the head of Ning Wang's Mansion got the news, he didn't dare to slack off, and immediately invited this young man into Ning Wang's Mansion. In the past, the chief manager didn't believe that there were real masters in this world, and there were flying immortals outside the world, but after seeing the immortal fighting method with his own eyes yesterday, he didn't dare to question it anymore.

However, mortals' vision is difficult to see far, and they can only see the shadows of immortals in the distance. On that day, Su Chen and Zhuang Luyi fought dozens of miles outside Jianye City, no mortal dared to approach, and naturally no one could see Su Chen and Zhuang Luyi's faces clearly.

The chief steward of King Ning's Mansion couldn't recognize that Su Chen was the immortal cultivator who cultivated the method of fighting with ghosts.

King Ning, who was pale and emaciated, couldn't help but be overjoyed when he heard that a master from outside the world was visiting, and personally greeted him under the stone steps in front of King Ning's palace, but was pleasantly surprised to find that this young master from outside the world was the young man who had come to see him once yesterday morning.

"The immortal chief came back today, but I don't know why?"

"After I took the pulse of the prince yesterday, I carefully pondered the symptoms of the illness for one night, and I had a countermeasure in my heart, so I came to treat King Ning. ”

"Immortal Chief, please!"

King Ning respectfully invited the young man into the hall and took a seat.

Han Shu, the seventh noble concubine of King Ning's Mansion, heard that another master from outside the world had come to King Ning's Mansion for diagnosis, and couldn't help but hurriedly come to the main hall, and when she saw that it was Su Chen coming, she was immediately relieved.

Su Chen took the pulse for King Ning, and took the opportunity to carefully absorb all the cold and poisonous gas in King Ning's body, absorb it in his palm, condense it into a ball, and inject it into the ghost flag.

He couldn't refine this water ghoul qi by himself, so he could only transfer it to Zhuang Luyi.

This yin and poisonous ghost qi is originally Zhuang Luyi, and it can be regarded as returning to its original owner.

Ten years ago, King Ning was injured by an arrow and fell into the water due to a fight in the rivers and lakes in the Jiaoji Mountain area.

Zhuang Luyi thought it was a corpse that had fallen into the water, and dragged him into the water with his divine thoughts, wanting to absorb his vitality. But Han Shu rescued King Ning in time, but King Ning was already infected with the faint poison of the water corpse.

Zhuang Luyi didn't make another move, she had been hiding in the Jiaoji Cave for so many years to cultivate, worried about alarming the immortal cultivators in the world, so she didn't take the initiative to attack the living, but just plundered the dead qi of the dead corpses.

Su Chen absorbed all the water ghoul qi in King Ning's body, injected it into the ghost banner and returned it to Zhuang Luyi.

He also gave a detoxification elixir and a low-level replenishing pill to help King Ning completely remove the residual poison and make up for the damage over the years.

After the evil and poisonous ghost qi on King Ning's body was drained, he suddenly felt a sense of relief, the cold qi was no longer haunted, and the pain of the past ten years was finally relieved.

He got another antidote pill and a spirit pill as gifts, and he couldn't help but be overjoyed and extremely grateful. Immediately instructed the chief manager of the Ning Mansion to give 100,000 taels of gold as a reward.

"King Ning's cold poison has been resolved, this is the case, farewell!"

Su Chen confiscated it and put it on his body to get in the way. After detoxifying the corpse, he didn't plan to stay in King Ning's mansion for long, so he got up and said goodbye to King Ning and Han Shu, and strode away outside the mansion.

"The immortal is long and slow, this king still has something to ask for!"

King Ning hurriedly got up and chased out.

"What?"

Su Chen couldn't help but stop, and looked back at King Ning suspiciously.

"Immortal Chief. In order to cure diseases over the years, this king has a pure heart and few desires, and specializes in alchemy in the alchemy room. Unconsciously, he has become obsessed with the way of cultivating immortals. The rich and powerful in this world are all boring, and they are only thinking about being able to refine the elixir and embark on the path of immortality. The immortal chief has vast magical powers, I don't know if I can lead Xiao Wang to step into the path of cultivating immortals?"

King Ning couldn't help but plead.

Initially interested in cultivating immortals, he still knew some alchemy methods from Daoist Li Qin.

He had repeatedly begged the hermit immortal Daoist Li Qin, who had been in the spiritual seclusion, looking forward to leading him on the path of cultivating immortals.

But for some reason, Daoist Li Qin was only willing to delay the onset of his poisonous injury, but he was unwilling to take him to cultivate immortals. Daoist Li Qin once said that his strength was weak and he was unable to take him on the road of cultivating immortals.

In order to heal his injuries over the years, he has focused on how to refine the pill and cultivate immortals.

Yesterday, after watching the fighting method between the human immortal and the ghost immortal outside Jianye City, he was even more fascinated, and he was extremely envious of the avenue of cultivating immortals.

As soon as this young immortal elder made a move, he cured his poisonous wounds, and his strength was undoubtedly much stronger than that of Li Qin Daochang, and he couldn't help but ignite some hope.

Su Chen was stunned.

He didn't expect that King Ning had the idea of looking for immortals and asking.

Han Shu's delicate body shook slightly, and her face instantly turned pale.

It's no wonder that in the past few years, King Ning has not thought about tea and dinner, and has stayed in the alchemy room all day long. Not only to cure diseases, but also to refine a panacea that can become an immortal, and become an immortal.

She didn't know much about cultivating immortals, but she knew that if King Ning wanted to cultivate immortals, he would never look back. What should she do with the huge Ning Wangfu?

Su Chen was silent, glanced at King Ning, and then looked at Han Shu.

He rescued King Ning this time, most of it was for Han Shu's sake, otherwise he wouldn't be so concerned. You can even ignore King Ning's poisoning.

The Five Great Immortal Sects of Shenzhou established a system of supervising the envoys of the immortals, prohibiting immortal cultivators from interfering with secular imperial power.

But if the members of the Tang Li royal family want to cultivate immortals, it is not impossible. It's just that secular magnates and immortal cultivators can't take care of each other, and King Ning can give up his original status and identity before he can go to the immortal city to cultivate immortals.

As for King Ning's willingness to give up this monstrous royal wealth and want to seek immortals, it was King Ning's own business, and Su Chen didn't want to interfere.

"The road to cultivating immortals is difficult to say, and there are countless unimaginable difficulties and bumps. It's easy to say, but it's also easy, as long as you give up your secular status, find a fairy city to work, and find hundreds of bowls of Linggu rice to eat, there is a glimmer of hope to embark on the road of cultivating immortals.

You can give up your identity as a prince and ask for immortals without hesitation. However, what do you plan to do with your seven-room wives and concubines and many children? Do you take them to cultivate immortals together, or let them all stay in King Ning's Mansion? Think about it carefully and decide for yourself. ”

Su Chen was silent for a while and sighed lightly.

After speaking, he walked towards the outside of King Ning's mansion, and disappeared outside Jianye City in a blink of an eye. He didn't want to worry about it.

King Ning couldn't help but be silent and sat down.

Embarking on the road of cultivating immortals has been his biggest dream over the years. But the huge Ning Wangfu, without him as a pillar, who else can you rely on?

...

Half a month later, the three foundation-building monks of the Demon Demon Alliance fled from the area around Jianye City in panic and arrived at a small fishing port with no name near the East Seashore.

This small fishing port is quiet and serene, and the residents are only a few hundred households, all of whom are fishermen in the vicinity who go out to sea all year round, and all of them are quite poor.

A fishing boat was moored on the beach, and a peaceful old man in a hat robe, holding a fishing rod, was fishing peacefully in the sunset, as if he was about to sleep.

There were also more than a dozen middle-aged fishermen, scattered around for a distance of one or twenty miles, either fishing or drying nets. Vaguely, protect the old man in the middle.

"Bang!"

The three big banner envoys of the Demon Demon Alliance came to the fishing boat and bowed to the old man with a trembling expression, "Knock on the alliance leader!"

No one can see that this unsightly old fisherman is a green-robed old monster who is the leader of the Demon Alliance. He turned into an ordinary old man and hid on the shore of the East China Sea.

"The alliance leader, subordinates and others were ordered to find the body of the Spiritual Hidden Observation Lord in Jianye City, and sure enough, they found a hidden spirit map. According to the map to search for treasure, but did not find that there was a spiritual treasure, but accidentally opened a Jindan ghost cultivator from the treasure chest. The subordinates were afraid of the Jindan ghost cultivator, and did not dare to stay in Jianye City, so they abandoned the Jianye stronghold and hurriedly returned. Leader, please?"

"Hmph, three wastes, they got nothing and returned empty-handed, what do you want!"

The old man's expression was cold and angry, but he coughed violently a few times, and spit out a mouthful of bloody phlegm.

When the three big bannermen saw the green-robed old monster angry, they couldn't help but be even more frightened.

"However, it was also miscalculated. This Jindan ghost cultivator was born, and it was a disaster, which would definitely attract the encirclement and suppression of the Jindan elders of the Penglai Immortal Sect to attract their attention. That's it, the Jianye area will definitely be strictly investigated by them, and give up the stronghold over there. The old man has given you another task, go to other places, and continue to search for spiritual treasures. ”

The old man couldn't help but hold back his anger and fell silent.

Since he escaped from Tianfeng Gorge, he has taken some remnants of the Demon Demon Alliance Foundation Cultivators to lurk in Middle-earth, waiting for an opportunity to recruit loose cultivators in various parts of Middle-earth to take revenge on Penglai Immortal Sect.

The Demon Slayer Alliance had almost gathered traitors from all major and small Immortal Sects earlier, and they held many secrets of Shenzhou. Many of them involve heaven and earth spiritual treasures.

He hides in an unnamed town in the East China Sea, directing his subordinates to search for those natural treasures.

He couldn't do it himself, and it was a last resort.

He was besieged by several Jindan monks in Tianfeng Gorge and was seriously injured. This injury was caused by several Jindan elders of the Penglai Immortal Sect with a special small magic weapon, and the wound still has a violent residual poison, which is constantly eroding his body.

In recent months, his injuries have worsened.

He had to put a lot of energy into healing. He can only send his subordinates to search for the spiritual treasure and bring it back to him for healing.

...

Su Chen patrolled Jianye City and the Hundred Counties of Jiangnan, and while cultivating, he continued to search for the whereabouts of the remnants of the Demon Demon Alliance. He almost wiped out the little monsters and demons who occasionally came out to make trouble, and the demons and cultivators.

During this period, he also went back to Gusu and inspected Wu County. Su Xianfu has Anu staring at it all the time, everything is fine, and nothing has happened.

More than a year has passed in a flash.

Su Chen dived into the depths of the Great River, and in a water snake cave, he killed a large water snake in the early stage of Qi refining that had been cultivated for nearly two hundred years. He threw the serpent into the golden gourd and fed the newly hatched Mithril Flying Ants.

He took the elixir to meditate and practice, estimated the time, and pondered.

"Master Sun Zhen's 400th birthday is coming soon next month, so it's time to go back. said that he would dedicate ten catties of Mithril ore to Shizun as a four-hundred-year-old birthday gift, and he couldn't miss this matter. Moreover, the Penglai Immortal Sect's once-in-a-decade recommendation quota, the Lingguo Dispute, that is, next year's matter, should also go back and see. ”
