Longevity, starting from raising chickens

Chapter 253 Surprise
"My experience is like this, but it is far less exciting than my junior brother."

"Junior brother is far ahead of me!"

lakeside.

Countless sword shadows criss-cross behind him.

Zhao Feng looked at Wang Ba's eyes, full of sighs.

In just ten years, he not only escaped from Tianmen Sect with his own strength, but also took root in Yan State, and even participated in the game among several major sects of Yan State.

He even fought against a seriously injured Jindan real person until both of them lost their strength.

Wang Ba's growth rate really exceeded Zhao Feng's expectations.

In addition to being amazed, it also made him extremely gratified.

He still vaguely remembered that when the two met for the first time that year, Wang Ba was just a little handyman that no one cared about.

Up to now, it has only been three to forty years.

When he practiced for 40 to [-] years, he was only at the tenth level of qi refining.

In comparison, it was far less amazing than Wang Ba.

However, Wang Ba shook his head again and again: "Brother, you are absurdly praised, I am not so wonderful, I am just drifting with the tide, out of helplessness."

This is not intentional modesty, but he really thinks so.

Times have changed over the years, and individuals are not immune to them.

Although he had lived a comfortable life in the first nine years after coming to Yan Kingdom, but with the retreat of the Incense Dao and the return of the Yan Kingdom's Zongmen, he was in the middle of it, and he would inevitably fall into twists and turns again. Restricted everywhere.

Such a day, compared to Zhao Feng's free and easy, walking with a sword, naturally has a lot less taste.

Zhao Feng smiled when he heard the words:

"The experience of life was difficult at the time, but looking back, it is a rare wealth. The raw jade has no beauty, and it can only be made into a tool by carving it. Today, the junior and younger brother have already revealed their brilliance."

Hearing Zhao Feng's approval, Wang Ba couldn't help showing a smile even though he had been tempered for many years and rarely expressed his emotions or anger.

Needless to say, Zhao Feng is like an elder brother to him.

In front of Zhao Feng, he didn't need to pretend to be himself, and he felt relaxed and at ease rarely.

This is different from when Buchan was together.

Many times, in order to avoid Bu Chan's worry, even if something happens, he tries his best to bear it by himself.

Even with Buchan's intelligence, he can often guess it.

"However, even though I have passed through the third-floor Bailian building and received my master's acceptance of apprentices, I still don't know much about the origin of Linglong ghost city. Zongmen related."

Zhao Feng said suddenly.

"Great Jin's sect?!"

Wang Ba was taken aback for a moment, but immediately became interested.

He had heard a long time ago that if there was any force in the entire Fenglinzhou that could resist the Incense and Fire Dao of the Wanshen Kingdom, then it would be the Great Jin and the Great Yan.

Dayan is said to be a demon sect, which does not match his personality.

On the contrary, Da Jin, although the rules are strict, may be a very good destination for a monk like him who doesn't like fighting.

Therefore, he has been paying attention to the news related to Dajin very early.

It's a pity that even in Chen Guo, which was a subordinate of the Great Jin, there was very little information, let alone Yan Guo, which was a country away from Chen Guo.

Over the years, he had hardly heard much about Da Jin.

Now that he suddenly learned that the Linglong Ghost Market was related to the Great Jin Sect, he was naturally very concerned.

Zhao Feng didn't hide anything: "I don't know much more than you. Although I was accepted as a disciple by the master, I haven't formally entered the sect yet. The master didn't talk to me about everything about the sect. It won’t be long before he will pick me up in person.”

"Junior brother can get senior Tang's attention, so you don't need to worry if you think about it."

Wang Ba was also a little helpless when he heard the words.

Tang Ji told him directly and would introduce him to a good teacher.

The only prerequisite is that he must successfully cultivate a third-order spirit beast.

Wu Yuan King is now seriously injured, and it may take some time to cultivate, besides, he still lacks a third-order inner alchemy.

He thought about using Yuan Wenzhi's golden pill instead.

But soon gave up.

Although both are of the same level of power, monks cultivate mana, while spirit beasts condense spiritual power. The two are similar but different. If they are introduced indiscriminately, it will easily affect the purity of the blood of Wu Yuanwang.

What's more, Yuan Wenzhi's golden elixir had already exhausted its magic power, and after the soul got out of the body, it collapsed and annihilated directly.

"By the way, senior brother, do you still have a third-order spiritual beast inner alchemy here?"

Wang Yan suddenly thought that Zhao Feng had already passed the third floor of Bailian Building, and should have obtained the qualification for the third floor of Linglong Ghost City.

"Third-level inner alchemy... I don't have one, but there should be one on the third floor of the Ghost City. After a while, the third floor will be open, so I'll go and buy one for you."

"How long will it take for the third floor to open?"

Wang Ba couldn't help being a little curious.

"It is said that it is opened once every 20 years, and it should be released after another two or three years... However, those who have obtained the qualification to enter the third floor, even if the ghost market is closed, can still enter the local Linglong ghost market, practice or take refuge .”

When Wang Ba heard this, he was a little disappointed.

He also wondered if he could get Neidan through Zhao Feng.

In this way, the only thing we can do now is to go to Return to the Wind Valley to have a look.

"I heard that this place is not far from Dachu. If my brother is in a hurry, I will go to Dachu and find some third-order spirit beasts..."

Zhao Feng said suddenly.

Wang Ba's heart was moved immediately. With Zhao Feng's talent, even if he had not entered the Golden Core Realm for a long time, he still had good combat prowess. Killing a third-rank low-grade spirit beast might be easy.

However, he glanced at the countless sword shadows behind Zhao Feng who couldn't hide, and immediately put out this thought.

It's too ostentatious.

Although he really wanted to get the third-order inner alchemy, there was no need to put Zhao Feng in danger.

Instead of this, it is better to take Zhao Feng back to Wind Valley for a walk, maybe you can get a third-order inner alchemy.

At least compared to Da Chu, Yan State is not so dangerous.

"By the way, brother, how is your strength now?"

Wang Ba asked curiously.

Zhao Feng was a little uncertain when he heard the words: "This... I am not sure about this, but the one at the bottom of the lake just now, I feel that if he is in his prime, he should not be able to stop my three swords."

"Of course, the premise is that he has no other means."

Hearing Zhao Feng's words, Wang Ba's eyes lit up immediately.

Yuan Wenzhi's cultivation is in the middle stage of Golden Core, and as a casual cultivator, his alchemy is only at the sixth rank. With this kind of cultivation, even if it doesn't rank in the top ten in the Yan Kingdom, it is at least in the top two. ten position.

Not to mention, in the battle between the three major sects and Zhenling Palace, each family suffered a lot of losses, and among the five Daoist Jindan masters of the Danlongmen, only Zhenren Zhang remained.

The overall strength of Yan State has shrunk unprecedentedly.

Zhao Feng was able to defeat Yuan Wenzhi with three swords. In terms of strength alone, in the entire Yan Kingdom, no one could beat him with more than one hand.

Such a cultivation level is enough to rule the country of Yan.

There is no need to look at anyone's face anymore.

Thinking of this, Wang Ba suddenly gained confidence.

But now that the Wu Monkey King has not recovered, he is not in such a hurry.

"How high is the senior brother's alchemy?"

Wang Ba asked curiously.

Zhao Feng didn't hide it either: "You also know that I am based on soul-cultivating pearls, so I don't have the distinction of alchemy, but it depends on the many resources bestowed by the master. If we talk about alchemy, it should be compared with first-rank The golden core is almost the same."

Dancheng Yipin? !

Hearing this, Wang Ba suddenly showed envy.

More importantly, this feeling of being able to grab resources with your hands is too cool, right?

Is this the benefit of having a master?

Sure enough, joining the sect is the wisest choice.

This made him yearn for it. When can he enjoy such treatment?

However, when he thought that he would be able to cultivate Wu Yuan King to the third level in a short time, and he would also have a master to take care of him, Wang Ba couldn't help feeling a little bit of expectation in his heart.

His master, even if he can't compare to Brother Zhao's master, it shouldn't be much different, right?

Well, it shouldn't be bad.

Tang Ji has said it all, and he will find a good teacher to accept his apprentice.

Chatted for a while.

The two practiced their own practice, busy and busy.

By the way, Wang Ba took an inventory of Xia Yuan Wenzhi's storage artifacts.

In addition to a dozen pieces of high-grade spirit stones and a pile of middle-grade and low-grade spirit stones, there is also a batch of spirit chicken essence that Wang Ba gave Yuan Wenzhi before, but there is only less than half of it left, and the other half should be in Zhang Tailai. In his hands, it is estimated that they have all fallen into the treasury of the three sects.

There are also several third-order talismans, but they are not of great value and are all auxiliary.

There are quite a few rubbings on jade slips and gold paper.

Some of the jade slips have been used, while others are brand new.

There are also some spiritual materials that go with the jade slips.

Presumably it was used for practicing third-order powerful spells.

However, seeing that the spiritual materials did not seem to be consumed much, it is estimated that Yuan Wenzhi was probably unable to do what he wanted when he was practicing this spell, so he had no choice but to give up.

This is the normal state of monk practice.

Even Daoist Jindan is also full of choices and helplessness.

In addition, in the storage ring and the storage bag, there are also some first- and second-order instruments, elixirs, and even an extremely old family tree of the mortal Yuan family.

It can be seen that Yuan Wenzhi is also a nostalgic person.

It's just that Wang Ba's heart didn't fluctuate much.

Everyone has a soft and warm side, but they all have to pay the price for the results of their actions.

Gather up the things that are useful to him.

The one that gained the most was Yuan Wenzhi's third-tier medium-grade large brush.

But there is no place to sell it now, otherwise it could be sold.

After finishing these things, he began to prepare healing medicine for King Wuyuan and Boli.

Bo Li only hurt the beak, not the root, so the healing medicine is very simple, just use some spiritual materials and spirit ointment to wrap the beak of Bo Li, and then take it off after it recovers.

Anyway, for spirit beasts, even if they don't eat, they can passively absorb spiritual energy to maintain the most basic needs of survival.

But Wu Yuan King is in a lot of trouble.

"Blood grass, thousand-year-old ginseng, black tiger spirit bones..."

Fortunately, Wang Ba had saved a lot of spiritual materials and medicines during his years in Yan, and he managed to gather the materials.

Afterwards, it took another two days of refining, and finally a few black ointments were successfully refined.

It was applied by Wang Ba on the body of King Wu Yuan.

"It's not a bad thing to be reckless, but you have to use the spells I taught you. Look, if you had used the 'Golden Armor Hiding Technique' back then, you wouldn't have suffered such a big punishment."

Wang Ba applied medicine to King Wu Yuan, and saw the shocking wound on his body. After all, it was a third-order injury, and it was difficult for King Wu Yuan to heal by himself.

I chanted a few words in distress.

And Wu Yuan Wang was being taught by Wang Ba, and he listened obediently.

He didn't have the slightest demonic nature and mania when he was incarnated as a demon ape.

However, the bared teeth from time to time also let Wang Ba know clearly that King Wu Yuan was seriously injured this time.

After all, the last time Wu Yuanwang fought with Zheng Yuanhua of the Incense Dao, even the flesh and blood on his arms were scraped clean, and he didn't even frown.

While healing Wu Yuan Wang, Wang Ba also brought Wu Yuan King to replay the previous battle process.

In fact, after the transformation, King Wuyuan, who already had a weak third-level strength, faced Yuan Wenzhi, who was seriously injured in his upper body, even if he couldn't win by fighting, he shouldn't have stretched his hips like this and was injured like this by someone.

It's entirely because Wu Yuanwang was too high-handed, ignoring the opponent's possible hidden methods, and also ignoring his own protection.

But this is also a side effect of transformation.

After the transformation, the Wu Yuan King's overall strength has directly turned up a notch.

But the price is that its personality has become extremely manic. Except for Wang Ba, he almost beats everyone he sees.

In this state, except for the natural landslide and ground cracking technique, which is used by it based on instinct, it is difficult to cast other spells in time.

"This is the focus of your practice for the next period of time. After transformation, you must also be able to control your emotions and judgment."

"And a further step is to control one's own body at any time and let the consciousness control the body, not the other way around."

Wang Ba assigned a mission to King Wu Yuan.

Wu Ape King seemed to understand a little bit.

Wang Ba didn't care too much.

Wu Ape King has a very high spiritual intelligence, but it is still a second-order spirit beast after all, and it may not be able to understand what it means until it reaches the third-order.

But three days later.

When Wang Ba watched the Wu Ape King transform into a six-foot giant ape, and then squatted in front of a small slope that was shorter than it, his face flushed from holding back, Wang Ba realized that he still underestimated the Wu ape. Spirituality of the Ape King.

"What a good monkey!"

Zhao Feng was also attracted by King Wu Yuan's cultivation method, and after hearing Wang Ba's introduction, he couldn't help showing his appreciation.

Wang Ba couldn't help but nodded.

The potential of the Five Ape King is much greater than he imagined. After the Five Ape King recovers, he will have to practice hard on this little guy.

In addition to treating Wu Yuanwang, he was mainly busy studying the changes in the Lingtai temple these two days.

The mind sank into the Lingtai.

Then I saw a faceless statue standing in the middle.

The Yin God's Incarnation Bow has been completely swallowed by it, and the face of the Faceless God statue has also changed.

"jaw……"

Wang Ba stared at the chin of the faceless statue, lost in thought.

Like, it's so similar.

The facial contours of the faceless statue before made Wang Ba vaguely familiar.

It's just that he didn't think much about it.

But when the statue swallowed the Yin God's Avatar Bow, Wang Ba was surprised to find out.

The curvature of the chin of the statue's face is almost exactly the same as his.

If the upper part of Wang Ba's face was covered, even he himself would not be able to tell the difference.

"Could it be... that the face of this idol will eventually become like me?"

Wang Ba couldn't help but have such a guess.

"What does this represent?"

Recalling that when he was in Zhenling Palace before, he seemed to be a different person, and he kept calling for the bow of the Yin God to descend into the world, and his heart couldn't help but sink.

He faintly sensed that the statue that appeared in the altar might not be as simple as he imagined.

At least in the original "Yin God's Great Dream Sutra", it was not mentioned that when entering the second floor, there will be a statue of a god.

It's just that he didn't think about it at the time.

And when the second level was practiced back then, there was a sound that almost shattered his soul.

This all shows that it may have other secrets.

But he immediately had a thought.

In the hand of the god statue, a bright red wave like flowing water quickly emerged, and immediately condensed into the shape of a bow.

"Yin God Avatar Bow..."

Wang Ba looked at the dark red longbow full of depression, with a slightly dignified expression.

After the Yin God Avatar Bow is absorbed by the statue, it can also be condensed at any time.

This is also the result of his two days of research.

And he also faintly felt that he could also use this longbow.

It's just that part of the Yinshen Bow's original source was consumed by the idol, and the remaining part is probably only enough to shoot an arrow.

"However... with this arrow, at least I have the strength to fight against Jindan."

At a higher level, he didn't dare to think that being able to threaten Jindan with the body of establishing a foundation, within the scope of Yan Kingdom, it must be enough.

With a thought in Wang Ba's mind, the Yin Hong longbow turned into Yin Hong flowing water again, pouring into the statue.

Taking a deep look into his eyes, Wang Ba's mind quickly left the altar.

Two more days passed.

Zhao Feng found Wang Ba:
"Junior Brother, Senior Tang has an edict!"

Wang Ba's eyes lit up:
"Is it my junior sister?"

Zhao Feng shook his head: "I don't know, it wasn't mentioned in the sound transmission talisman that Senior Tang sent, let's go and have a look first."

Wang Ba nodded.

The two found the nearby Linglong Ghost Market and entered the first floor smoothly.

Originally, the opening day of the second floor did not arrive.

However, Zhao Feng, as a distinguished guest who can enter the third floor, is eligible to take Wang Ba to enter the second floor even if it is not open.

But as soon as it was sent out, Tang Ji was seen standing not far away.

Seeing Wang Ba and Zhao Feng, a smile appeared on Tang Ji's face.

"Friend Daoist Shen, I'm not looking for you, and you don't even know to come looking for me."

Seeing Tang Ji's smile, Wang Ba's heart immediately relaxed.

about to speak.

Zhao Feng suddenly sent a voice transmission to Wang Ba secretly.

Wang Ba was taken aback for a moment, then thoughtful.

Hastily bowed, showing shame and said:

"Tang Dao... Don't blame me, senior. I have something to hide before. This junior is not called Shen Fu. His real name is actually Wang Ba."

"Wang Ba?"

Tang Ji was taken aback when he heard the words, and then seemed to think of something, his eyes suddenly flashed with surprise:
"You...you're not that Tianmen Sect person from Chen Guo, are you? The one who is good at raising spirit chickens?"

This time, Wang Ba was stunned.

"Senior Tang knows me?"

"Of course I know, I went to Chen Guo before..."

At that moment, Tang Ji told all the things he encountered in Chen Guo, except those related to the Zongmen and the 'eyes'.

When Wang Yan heard the news that the Tianmen Sect was almost wiped out from top to bottom, the leader Ning Daohuan and all the Golden Core cultivators had all fallen, and the only remaining members of the Tianmen Sect fled in all directions, he couldn't help being stunned. .

At this moment, he couldn't help feeling mixed feelings in his heart.

He thought about the destruction of Tianmen Sect.

He even thought that one day, after he had achieved success in cultivation, he would return to the Tianmen Sect and kill Ning Daohuan and Lu Yuansheng.

But when he really heard about the demise of the Tianmen Sect, instead of the slightest guesses he had heard from others before, he felt a sense of alienation.

"You are actually a member of the Demon Cult..."

Tang Ji also recalled it, and couldn't help frowning slightly.

Zhao Feng suddenly said from the side:

"Senior Tang, it's no wonder my junior brother."

At the moment, I will tell you all the experiences of Wang Ba's difficult journey from the beginning of being a handyman in the Eastern Sacred Sect.

He is not very good at telling stories, but he is more truthful and full of calmness.

Listening to Zhao Feng's narration, Tang Ji looked at Wang Ba's eyes, and his eyes gradually showed extraordinary splendor.

He didn't expect that Wang Ba would have such a complicated experience.

In just three to forty years, he has experienced more than most monks in half their lives.

But in such a difficult situation, he did not lose his heart, and he was able to grow to the level he is today.

He couldn't help but think of the scene where Wang Ba and Buchan fought the Jindan real person before.

Then suddenly said:
"Don't worry, I, Mr. Tang, am not that kind of pedantic person, how can I have opinions from different families."

"Besides, this can be regarded as my sect's negligence, allowing a demon sect like Tianmen Sect to break in..."

Thinking of this, he couldn't help thinking of Senior Brother Yao who was guarding Chen Guo.

It was this old guy who didn't do his job every day and didn't care about what happened in the territory. This allowed the Eastern Sacred Sect to be destroyed by the foreign demon sect, and thus implicated Wang Ba, the most insignificant person at that time.

But now, this old guy came all the way here just to accept Wang Ba as his disciple.

It is really unpredictable that the world will happen by chance, drink and peck.

Shaking his head, Tang Ji didn't feel any more emotion, and thought of the business, he said to Wang Ba seriously:

"Wang Ba, it's your Taoist companion who asked you to come here this time, and there is something for you to decide."

Wang Ba was taken aback for a moment.

It's just healing, why is there still something to decide?

He quickly raised his hand and asked:
"Dare to ask Senior Tang, what happened to Bu Chan?"

"That's not true. It's very safe now."

Tang Ji immediately realized that Wang Ba had misunderstood his attitude, and quickly shook his head.

"That is something that needs to be decided by the junior..."

Wang Ba was also a little confused for a while.

Seeing Wang Ba's face full of bewilderment, Tang Ji suddenly showed a smile on his face:
"a good thing."

"Did you know... your Taoist partner is already pregnant?"

"what?!"

Wang Ba froze in place for an instant.
