Chapter 132 132, great progress in cultivation, new host for the fifth spirit seed!
Now that we have had a successful start, the next step is naturally to keep working hard and continue refining.
This time, Ouyang Feng used that trace of innate true Qi to grind the overly inert gold essence, and his efficiency was greatly improved.
Previously, it took twelve hours to grind off one percent of it with ordinary Wuji true Qi. This time, it only took two hours to grind off a similar amount of gold element essence.
The refining process was also smoother and it only took half an hour to succeed.
The innate true Qi grew a little bit, and he continued to refine it in the same way. It was like a snowball, and the efficiency became higher and higher. In the end, it only took one day and one night to completely refine the initial wisp of golden essence. Ouyang Feng's innate true Qi, which was just a tiny strand at the beginning, also grew a hundred times stronger.
"Everything is difficult at the beginning. As long as the beginning is successful, it will snowball and become easier and easier afterwards. Even with my powerful skills, it only takes a month or so at most to refine all the true energy into innate true energy!"
Calculating the time, he had been in seclusion for almost three days and three nights. Ouyang Feng took a temporary rest, drank some water, and then moved his mind, using the "Tongtian Treasure Mirror" to reflect the "Tongtian Spirit Seed" of the Twin Dragons World.
After the space-time channel is permanently opened, as long as Ouyang Feng is willing, he can activate the Tongtian Treasure Mirror at any time to reflect the Tongtian Spirit Seed at the other end of the space-time channel and reflect the situation around the spirit seed host in real time.
At this moment, as his mind urged, a scene suddenly emerged on the treasure mirror in his sea of consciousness. It was the scene of Shan Wanjing killing people with a sword, leaving corpses all over the ground.
The people she killed as easily as cutting melons and vegetables were a group of martial artists wearing uniform grey uniforms. No one knew which local gang they were from, but they were so bold as to target her.
After watching the "live broadcast" for a while and seeing that Shan Wanjing was no match for her sword, Ouyang Feng stopped paying attention to it and turned his attention to the situation on Lian Xing's side.
Lian Xing is practicing martial arts in the "Earth Cold Cave".
Ever since Ouyang Feng's martial arts became more and more advanced, even though her Mingyu Gong had been advanced to the eighth level, she was still unable to defeat him in any way. Lian Xing had begun to feel a sense of crisis and had practiced more diligently. She now frequently visited the "Dihan Cave" which she had hardly ever visited before.
But she was not being competitive. She just didn't want to be left too far behind by Ouyang Feng and wanted to try her best to catch up with him.
After silently watching Lian Xing, who was meditating at the bottom of the cave where water had frozen into ice and whose skin was as transparent as ice crystal jade, Ouyang Feng tried to reflect the situation in Yang Yuhuan's other world.
Unfortunately not.
The Tongtian Spirit Seed in the Prosperous Tang Dynasty world is still several months away from full maturity. When it is reflected in the light at this moment, it can only show some extremely vague colors and cannot even reflect a complete human figure.
The same is true in the world of the "Psychic Sword", which can only barely reflect some hazy colors.
After a brief attempt, Ouyang Feng gave up and began to think about his fifth Tongtian Spirit Seed.
This Tongtian Spiritual Seed is the harvest after the spiritual seed in the Twin Dragon World matured.
Before entering the Twin Dragons World, he had already thrown out the fifth Spirit Seed, and was certain that the Spirit Seed had traveled through time and space and found a "world outside the sky".
I have only been in the Twin Dragons World for more than three months, but I have not seen any new spirit seed hosts enter the Tongtian Fantasy Realm.
This made Ouyang Feng wonder whether the fifth Tongtian Spirit Seed was unlucky and did not fall near the "spiritual beings".
After carefully sensing the growth of the fifth Tongtian Spirit Seed, he found that the growth speed of that spirit seed was not slow and it would grow to maturity in just three years.
This shows that the world where the fifth spirit seed was found is not of a low level, and it is possible that there is something magical going on.
Unfortunately, no spiritual host has been found so far, and I don’t know whether it will be discovered by some “spiritual being” in the future and bring some news in advance.
After examining the five spirit seeds one by one, Ouyang Feng collected his thoughts and continued to refine the essence of heaven and earth.
During this period, I would take a break from time to time and watch some "live broadcasts" using the Tongtian Baojian.
I don’t know if it’s because the world of Shuanglong is in turmoil and the world is too chaotic, but almost every time Shan Wanjing is reflected, she is fighting.
Sometimes it is killing soldiers and bandits, sometimes it is destroying martial arts gangs, and sometimes it is fighting with masters.
What Ouyang Feng saw today was her fighting with a petite woman in black.
The woman's swordsmanship was extremely advanced, and her skills were much more profound than Shan Wanjing's, who had dispersed her skills.
But in the end, after a fierce battle of more than two thousand moves, he was defeated by Shan Wanjing's "Flying Fairy from the Sky".
Afterwards, Shan Wanjing sat and talked with the woman in black, as if they were a group of people who could not get to know each other without fighting and were making friends with swords.
The Tongtian Baojian can only reflect images at present, but not sounds. However, judging from the mouth shapes of the two people during their conversation, the woman in black with superb swordsmanship seems to be Dugu Feng of the Dugu clan.
Unexpectedly, when she made a special trip to Luoyang, she missed Dugu Feng. When Shan Wanjing embarked on the journey home alone, she met Dugu Feng on the road.
After watching the live broadcast here, I watched Lian Xing again. This time Lian Xing did not practice in the Dihan Cave, but practiced with Yao Yue outside. From the scene, Yao Yue's strength seemed to have recovered a lot - or rather, Yao Yue's strength was always there, but she just forgot how to use it.
After watching the two people practicing for a while, Ouyang Feng ended his rest and continued practicing.
……
Before we knew it, autumn had arrived in Huashan. The maple trees in the mountains were dyed red by the autumn wind, and persimmons began to ripen.
Every year I look forward to the Baoqin season, and finally I get to eat the fire crystal persimmons as I wish. I poke a hole in the persimmon skin with a hollow bamboo tube and sip the sweet and soft pulp. I feel that life is perfect.
Zheng Meimei was sucking a persimmon while supervising the little ones practicing martial arts.
A tall and burly figure, as agile as a tiger, walked into the mountain gate and strode towards the training ground.
"Wang Wu!"
Baoqin called out from afar and threw over a fire crystal persimmon and a hollow bamboo tube.
Wang Wu gently took the persimmon and the bamboo tube, looked at the familiar sect buildings, then looked at the senior sister holding the zither and the little guys practicing martial arts on the field. His originally sinister and ferocious temperament suddenly became bright and kind, as if the clouds had cleared and the sun had come out. A gentle smile unconsciously appeared on his face.
"Thank you, Senior Sister." He smiled and thanked her, then popped a hole in the persimmon peel, took a sip, and walked to Baoqin to watch the little ones practice martial arts.
After looking at it for a while, I couldn't help but nod and praise:
"The junior brothers and sisters are all good. They practice very seriously and you can tell they have put in a lot of hard work."
Baoqin chuckled, raised his chin, rocked in the rocking chair, and said proudly:
“I taught them most of them.”
"Of course the senior sister taught well."
Wang Wu smiled, threw the persimmon peels into the bamboo basket, wiped his mouth, and asked again:
"Where are Master and Madam? This time Madam sent someone to summon me back. I don't know what's the important matter. I have to go and see them."
"The headmaster is in seclusion, and the eldest lady is also meditating. Please wait for a while." Baoqin glanced at him again and asked, "Why did you have such a strong evil spirit just now? It was scary."
"A few months ago, three Qingcheng abandoned disciples who fled to Shu occupied a village and recruited many desperate people. They were so bold that they even dared to touch the escorts of my Taihua Escort Agency. Last month, they robbed one of our escorts and injured several brothers from the escort agency. They even wanted to kill us all. If it weren't for the fact that my brothers had practiced light skills and foot strength well, we would have really fallen into their hands..."
"The Qingcheng Sect in Shu? The sect whose weapon is the 'Thunder God Bomb' and whose special moves are the 10-strike Qing character and 15-break Cheng character?"
"Yes. It's that sect. Those three guys claim to be abandoned disciples of Qingcheng Sect, but I suspect there is something fishy going on because their martial arts skills are quite high. If they were in Shaolin, they would be considered core masters. So I think those three guys might have been sent by Qingcheng Sect to come to Guanzhong to occupy land and make money."
"From the looks of you, have you taken revenge?"
"Yes, I led He Song and Gao Hu to slaughter the village, killing more than 80 people and recovering the silver. I also tore the three Qingcheng abandoned disciples alive and hung their heads on the village gate with a message on them."
"Whoever invades Huashan will be killed no matter how strong he is, and will be punished no matter how far he is away?" "Yes. After finishing this matter, I was planning to go to Shuzhong and talk to Qingcheng Sect, but after receiving the message from Master's Wife, I hurried back to the mountain."
"Tsk, no wonder there's so much evil spirit. Are the injured brothers all right?"
"Fortunately, I'm not disabled. I'll be fine after resting for a while with the healing spell."
"That's good."
As he was speaking, Lin Chaoying's voice suddenly came:
"Wang Wu, come here."
Wang Wu looked in the direction of the sound and saw that his master's wife had appeared on the terrace above the training ground. He quickly walked over to her on the stone steps, knelt down and kowtowed respectfully:
"Disciple Wang Wu, I pay my respects to Master's Wife."
Lin Chaoying smiled and said:
"Get up. Follow me."
Wang Wu stood up and followed Lin Chaoying out of the sect’s residence. After wandering for five or six miles in the roadless forest, they came to a cave covered by vines.
Wang Wu thought that his master was in seclusion here, so he quickly straightened his clothes. But when he went in, his master was not there, but he saw a lot of large wooden boxes that were densely packed and neatly arranged.
"Master's wife, what is this?"
"Here are million taels of gold, 1 million taels of silver, thousands of armors, more than 3,000 strong bows, 300,000 arrows of various kinds, and tens of thousands of swords and spears."
Lin Chaoying put her hands behind her back, looked at Wang Wu who was shocked, and said in a deep voice:
"After the Mid-Autumn Festival, your master and I will return to the Western Regions with some of the gold, silver, and armor. The rest will be guarded by you here. What do you say?"
Wang Wu felt a burning sensation in his chest, his face turned red, and when he opened his mouth, his voice was choked with sobs:
"Master and Master's Wife have placed such trust in me, how dare Wang Wu not repay them with his life?"
After saying this, he pushed the Jinshan and Yuzhu away, knelt on the ground, and kowtowed several times.
Seeing Wang Wu trembling with excitement over this trust, Lin Chaoying felt deeply moved that Ouyang Feng had really chosen the right person as his eldest disciple.
……
in the secret room.
Ouyang Feng has also been in seclusion for more than a month, and all of his infinite true qi has been refined into extremely pure innate true qi.
When the last trace of Wuji true Qi was successfully transformed, the introverted true Qi ball in Ouyang Feng's dantian, which was like a chaotic chicken egg, suddenly underwent a very subtle change.
A lively vitality emanated from the Qi ball, constantly washing over his body like a warm current, repairing the hidden injuries accumulated from years of martial arts training and fighting, washing away the toxins that had accumulated unknowingly, and also washing away those body cells that were not healthy and strong enough.
This kind of repair and cleansing was extremely thorough, and even the subtle parts of Ouyang Feng's body that he had not paid attention to before were touched by the lively vitality, causing Ouyang Feng to have a strange feeling.
He just felt as if he had returned to the mother's womb and his whole body was growing again.
And this time, every bone, every muscle, every blood vessel, and even every cell deep inside the internal organs, are growing and evolving towards the most perfect direction...
It was unknown how long it had passed before Ouyang Feng came back to his senses from this subtle feeling that had intoxicated him.
When I opened my eyes, I felt that everything I saw became clearer and brighter, the colors of things became more vivid, and the layers became more distinct.
His hearing and sense of smell also became more acute, and his spiritual perception also saw a qualitative improvement, and he could reflect everything within ten feet around him like a spiritual mirror.
When he concentrates, he can see the flow of air around him and even the details of every speck of dust floating in the air, as clear and vivid as looking at the lines on the palm of your hand.
Of course, spiritual perception to this degree was quite tiring and too mentally exhausting, so Ouyang Feng gave up after a brief attempt.
At the same time, he closed his eyes and circulated the Wuji Qi to feel the overall changes.
This feeling immediately made him even happier.
The human body's vitality and energy have limits. As long as we are alive, they will be consumed.
Even though his "Hunyuan Wuji Gong" can largely lock the loss of vitality and essence and delay aging to the greatest extent, even if he does not use force, does not indulge in lust, does not get injured, does not get sick, and does not get poisoned, his vitality and essence will eventually be exhausted.
Moreover, if there is no method to nourish and refine the spirit, the primordial spirit will sooner or later be worn out by time. Even if the body remains young and youthful, it will die due to the end of the spirit.
However, the method of refining essence into qi in the art of longevity can be sought from the outside, using the infinite essence of heaven and earth to replenish the vitality of the human body.
When the vitality is abundant enough, the innate true qi obtained from "refining essence into qi" will feed back to the primordial spirit and nourish the mind and spirit.
In this way, the essence, energy and spirit can be replenished and increased. The "Hunyuan Wuji Gong" can lock the loss of the essence, energy and spirit. While replenishing and nourishing, the essence, energy and spirit can be continuously strengthened. While the strength continues to improve, there is real hope for longevity.
Of course, spiritual practice cannot be achieved overnight, but requires long-term persistence.
It doesn't mean that if you successfully refine the essence of heaven and earth, you can achieve immortality directly. It can only be said that once you reach this step, you have stepped into the door of immortality and have hope of achieving enlightenment.
Furthermore, "immortality" is not "immortality".
Even if you have a long life and eternal youth, you will still die if you are killed by someone.
Moreover, fighting and getting injured will consume one's energy. If the consumption is greater than the daily increase, one will still die of exhaustion.
Therefore, it is not enough to just know how to lock and nourish your energy.
One must also possess powerful means of protecting oneself, so that one can cope with all kinds of natural and man-made disasters, and ensure that even when facing a strong enemy, one will not suffer serious damage to one's vitality, or be injured and shorten one's life.
After some further reflection, Ouyang Feng seemed to be thinking:
"Innate Qi, in terms of pure killing power, is not that much stronger. But the Qi has become spiritual and full of vitality, and can reach deeper into the treasures of the human body, helping the human body to unlock its own secrets... Therefore, the five senses and physical fitness have been greatly improved, and the spiritual perception is like opening the third eye..."
The reason why Kou Zhong and Xu Ziling were able to survive and defeat the strong with their weak skills time and again was because of the mysterious innate true qi of the Changsheng Jue.
Shan Wanjing was able to kill Bian Bufu instantly with a single move using her weak strength, which was also the magic of the innate true qi of the Changsheng Jue.
Ouyang Feng has profound skills and rich methods. Even if the killing power of his true qi has not been improved much, his strength has leapt to a higher level compared to before.
When he fought with Yin Hou before, facing Yin Hou's unfathomable demonic skills, he could only ensure that Yin Hou could not defeat him.
But if he fights with Queen Yin again at this time, it will be hard to say who will win.
"Once I have thoroughly understood what I have gained from this trip to the Twin Dragon World, I will have at least a 70% chance of winning, if not a guaranteed victory over the Yin Queen."
Ouyang Feng had tried his luck with Queen Yin twice and had some understanding of her martial arts. He felt that this estimate was neither conservative nor excessive.
Calculating the time, Ouyang Feng has been in seclusion for more than a month. He has no plan to continue his seclusion. He is trying to comprehend the various magical skills he has gained from the Twin Dragons World. He plans to come out of seclusion to rest for a while and help Lin Chaoying and Lian Xing to refine their innate true qi.
Just when he was about to leave.
The Tongtian Treasure Mirror suddenly shook slightly, and when it emitted a crystal light, it reflected the situation inside the Tongtian Fantasy Realm.
Ouyang Feng was slightly startled:
"Including the month of seclusion, the fifth Tongtian Spirit Seed has been silent for more than four months. Has it finally met a spiritual host?"
