Longevity, starting from raising chickens

"The three kinds of suffering are blindness of the mind, deafness of the spirit, and dumbness of the body..."

“The heart is the will of man. When the heart is blind and the will is extinguished, there is no hope for the Way. This is the first level of suffering.”

"God is the soul of man. When God is deaf and the soul is dim, all is silent. This is the second level of suffering."

"The body is the human body. When the body becomes mute and weak, the form becomes withered and the breath is gone, this is the third level of suffering."

"Under the triple pain I used, even a cultivator in the late stage of fusion would have his soul dissipated and his Dao realm destroyed if he was not careful... He is a cultivator in the Void Refinement stage, I'm afraid he can't even survive the first level."

The Ghost King Xichai sat cross-legged in mid-air, and an ancient black altar covered with mottled marks disappeared silently.

What dissipated along with it were the black vines that were spreading everywhere...

His eyes shifted slightly to She Ye who was standing beside him, and he whispered.

When Sheye heard this, his expression remained unchanged, but one could faintly see that he let out a long sigh and said softly:

"Thank you for your hard work, Junior Brother Xicai."

The Curse of Triple Suffering is one of the few spells that can be cast directly based solely on the caster's memory of the recipient and the recipient's name.

Even if they are infinitely far apart, the spell can be completed as long as enough price is paid.

Of course, Sheye was also well aware of the effect that Xicai mentioned.

If a cultivator in the late stage of fusion is not careful, he will indeed suffer a great loss. However, for a cultivator who has really reached the late stage of fusion, the Dao domain is always added to his body, and he has already developed some incredible wonderful perceptions. Once the triple suffering is unleashed, it is impossible to hide it from such an existence.

It can be eliminated with just one thought.

Of course, with the cultivation level of the Ghost King Xichai, it would be easy for him to curse and kill the Bird Taoist, who is probably at the Lianxu level.

So after seeing the Xichai Ghost King perform the triple suffering, the depression in his heart finally eased a little.

After hearing Sheye's words, Xicai Ghost King's expression became calm:

"It's okay. I've been in seclusion for so long, so I might as well stretch my muscles..."

Sheye nodded slightly, with a hint of regret on her face:
"What a shame that I can't see this man die from triple suffering!"

The Ghost King Xichai shook his head slightly.

This senior brother has been of this character for many years. He is vindictive and has a mediocre mind and temperament.

However, thinking about the other party's three Dao fields being destroyed, he understood his feelings for a moment and consoled him:
"According to the time, this 'Dahai City' is almost over. We don't know when the next Dahai City will open. My brother's Dao field was destroyed. You can go out and look for small pieces of Dao fields scattered around during these days... If that doesn't work, I can lend you my Dao field as well."

When Sheye heard the words of the Ghost King Xicai, he felt helpless at first, but then he was delighted:
"Junior brother is so generous! Don't worry, if you raise something good, I'll give you the lion's share!"

Then he sighed and said:
"Nowadays, it is increasingly difficult to find fields. The lives of the surrounding families are not easy either. Only the Three Realms and the Nine Heavenly Palaces are better off, but they are also very limited... In Dahai City, it is too dependent on luck. Alas, even if the Jade Pot Realm does not come to trouble us, our lives are not easy."

Upon hearing this, Xi Cai felt the same way.

But the general situation is like this and there is nothing we can do.

"There is no other way. On one side is the Immortal Desolation Land, and on the other side is the 'Immortal Pass'. There are immortals on both sides, but they just let us suffer here... Look, the first level of suffering has begun."

As he spoke, the Ghost King Xichai suddenly stopped and pointed at the black vines that suddenly appeared in the void in front of him.

She Ye looked over quickly.

But the black vines grew and spread rapidly, outlining a human figure.

Suddenly overjoyed:

“I’ve definitely been hit!”

If the bird Taoist had not been hit, he would not have revealed his human form.

And since you have already suffered these three kinds of suffering, the outcome is naturally determined.

But not long after, the Ghost King Xicai raised his eyebrows slightly and said in surprise:
"Huh? He actually managed to get through the first level of suffering!"

She Ye's face darkened slightly, but he saw a tender bud quickly sprouted from the vine, and the buds grew, which was obviously different from the black vine.

"This person is quite capable, his heart is firm, and he is not affected by the first level of suffering. There are very few people like him in the Sea of ​​Chaos..."

I don't know what he thought of, but the ghost king's face suddenly changed:

"Wait, Senior Brother Pao Shi, although this person is not from the Jade Pot Realm, could he be from the other two realms?"

"Um?!"

She Ye was stunned, and subconsciously an image of the bird Taoist that was completely different from them, as well as the big bird under him, emerged in his mind, and then his face changed drastically!

"Oh no! Why didn't I think of this?!"

He only thought that the other party was from the Yuhu Realm, because there were many precedents of young disciples from the Yuhu Realm often going out. Although he realized that the other party might be from the other two realms, he was also rejected by Ji Wujiu, and he didn't think about it anymore. However, now that the Xichai Ghost King pointed it out, his heart was suddenly struck by lightning.

The Yuhu Realm does not get along well with the other two realms, so it is possible that they might interfere. As for this bird Taoist, it is obvious that he was born in this realm, which cannot be false. So if this bird Taoist is really from one of the other two realms, then wouldn't they have offended two of the three realms in one go?

When they thought of this, both She Ye and Xichai Ghost King could not help but take a breath of cold air, and felt their scalps tingling!

If they offended one Yuhu Realm, the five ghost kings would be terrified. If they offended two, would there be any place for them in this sea of ​​chaos?
"Quick! Stop this triple suffering!"

Sheye shouted loudly!

The happier I was just now, the more terrified I am now.

However, the Ghost King Xicai looked extremely embarrassed and shook his head imperceptibly:

"No, he has already passed the first level of suffering. This cursed vine will completely penetrate his soul and body. If he can still endure it, it will bloom and bear fruit later... There is no way he can be saved!"

It was like a verdict.

On the black vine, the pink buds grew rapidly, and the color darkened. One, two... and then a flower bud bulged between the leaves...

"The second level has begun!"

There was a hint of despair in the extremely solemn expression of the Ghost King Xichai.

That is the powerlessness of watching oneself heading towards a dead end...

The forces in the Sea of ​​Chaos are intertwined and check and balance each other, so the Three Realms will not easily take action against a force like the Hundred Ghosts Mountain.

But when the Hundred Ghosts Mountain cursed and killed a cultivator from the Three Realms, it was equivalent to handing the handle to the Three Realms.

The ending, of course, doesn't need to be thought about...

"You can see clearly... Could he be someone from the Nine Heavenly Palaces?"

The Ghost King Xichai couldn't help but ask in a deep voice.

She Ye was also immersed in such fear, and he even thought more. He vaguely felt that perhaps this bird Taoist had been a trap since his very beginning, just to lure him to attack him, so as to get the opportunity to attack Hundred Ghosts Mountain.

Hearing the words of the Ghost King Xicai, he slowly shook his head:

"I also think he is... but the possibility is very small. The aura on him is very similar to the feeling Ji Wujiu from the Jade Pot Realm gave me. They both feel like they have walked out of a complete realm... which is obviously different from us."

She Ye's words undoubtedly cut off the last bit of thought of the Ghost King Xichai.

He did not doubt She Ye's eyesight. With She Ye's level of cultivation, he should be able to distinguish this.

"So, he might really have...bloomed."

As he spoke, the buds on the black vines quickly bloomed.

The petals are pink and dripping, like jade carvings, so beautiful.

Both of them couldn't help but look shocked.

“I have even overcome the second level of suffering!”

But then his expression became more and more embarrassed, and there was no more doubt in his heart:
"Although he is only at the Refining Void stage, the foundation of his soul is so strong that it is absolutely incomparable to those of us who are living outside the realm. He is truly a person from the Three Realms!"

In their impression, only people in the Three Realms could possibly endure the first two of the three levels of suffering just by refining the void.

"It's over! It's over!"

Both of them felt heavy in their hearts and could hardly breathe.

Having offended two of the three realms, the inheritance of Hundred Ghosts Mountain may be cut off!
"The third level has begun..."

The expressions of Xichai Ghost King and Sheye were filled with despair.

As he spoke, the bright flowers on the black vines in the void withered rapidly, leaving only the calyx swelling rapidly.

Then, in just the blink of an eye, it grew into an extremely plump fruit with a faint golden glow on the surface.

The fruit is illusory, but it seems to be struggling to transform from this illusion into reality.

"The fruit is ripe, which means he..."

The Xichai Ghost King sighed deeply.

The triple suffering is not only a technique of killing with curses, but can also seize the mind, spirit and body of the person being treated, and produce miraculous fruits to benefit the monks.

The longer you endure the triple suffering, the more perfect the fruit will be.

Judging from the quality of the fruit, it was obviously more perfect than he had imagined.

But Ke Xicai felt no joy at all in the Ghost King's heart.

The fact that a Void Refining cultivator could produce such fruit only shows that this Bird Taoist has infinite potential. Even in the Three Realms, he is definitely a rare top-notch descendant. The more so, the more likely it is that Hundred Ghosts Mountain will be doomed this time.

These five ghost kings are very big targets and there is no possibility for them to escape.

How could he be happy about this?
In bitterness, he reached out to grab the illusory fruit.

However, at this moment, his expression suddenly changed!
A ball of black mist with a faint golden tinge suddenly emerged silently from behind the illusory fruit and instantly wrapped the fruit!

"Huh?! What is this?"

The Xichai Ghost King was startled and quickly grabbed the fruit.

However, the timing of the black fog's appearance was too clever. It completely enveloped the fruit in an instant, and then disappeared silently into the void. Along with it, there was also a lot of spell power that he had consumed in order to perform the triple suffering.

"That is……"

The Ghost King Xichai was about to make a move, but suddenly stopped, his eyes full of surprise and suspicion.

"What's wrong, Xicai."

She Ye asked urgently in a deep voice.

The changes just now happened so fast that he couldn't react at all.

Xi Cai shook his head slightly, his eyes fixed on the place where the black fog disappeared. For the first time, a sense of inexplicable coldness arose in his heart.

The complexion is slightly pale.

At the last moment when the triple bitter fruit disappeared, he seemed to see a pair of cold golden pupils behind the black mist...

"Double pupils... am I seeing things wrong?"

"…Xichai! Xichai!"

Sheye's voice quickly awakened the Ghost King Xicai from his trance:

"What on earth just happened?!"

The Ghost King Xicai came back to his senses, turned his head and looked at Sheye, his expression somewhat complicated, and whispered:

"There's good news, and there's bad news."

Sheye was startled and asked doubtfully:
"What's good or bad... Tell me the good news first." Ghost King Xicai suppressed the turmoil in his heart and nodded.
"The good news is that this bird Taoist should not be dead."

"not dead?!"

Sheye was stunned, then showed ecstasy and confusion:

"Hasn't he already blossomed and borne fruit? How come he's not dead?"

The Ghost King Xicai shook his head slightly:

"As long as it survives the flowering period, it will bear fruit regardless of whether it makes it to the end. It's just a matter of whether the fruit is plump or not. However, at the last moment, he took the fruit back in some unknown way... So he should not be dead."

"It's good that he's not dead, it's good that he's not dead... What about the bad news?"

She Ye let out a long sigh, then quickly asked again.

"The bad news is that the fruit of the triple condensation includes the mind, spirit and body. This is the result of his re-condensation of the three. After the fruit is taken back, although it helps him to consolidate his spirit and body to a certain extent, it will cause his Dao domain to fall, and it also exposes our position... We are still enemies with him."

The Ghost King Xichai spoke in a solemn voice.

"This... is better than actually cursing him to death, because then there will be no room for maneuver."

She Ye thought about it and finally spoke to comfort her.

Upon hearing this, the Ghost King Xicai could only think so.

Although they have become enemies, at least the other party is not dead, so it is not a life-and-death feud. As long as enough price is paid, it is not impossible to overcome this disaster.

But at this moment, the voice of Fujima Demon King suddenly came to their ears:
"Pao Shi... Tell me about this Taoist bird."

Sheye and Xichai Ghost King were both startled, but they saw that Tengmo Ghost King not far away had woken up at some point and was looking at them.

She Ye hesitated for a moment, then told him about his encounter with the Bird Taoist and the result of his failed attempt to kill him with his curse.

"Bird Taoist...Ji Wujiu..."

Fujima Ghost King frowned and muttered these two names. Suddenly, his eyes lit up:
"I know! I know how to deal with it!"

Sheye and Xicai Ghost King couldn't help but look at each other, and then asked impatiently:

"How to do it?"

Fujima Ghost King looked at the two of them and spoke word by word:

"Not long ago, the Bird Taoist took away the three great divine corpse inheritances from my Hundred Ghosts Mountain and plundered my Hundred Ghosts Mountain. There is no more divine corpse inheritance in Hundred Ghosts Mountain..."

She Ye and Xi Chai Ghost King were both shocked.

……

"What is this?!"

Wang Ba was suddenly awakened from the absolute silence that was without any sound or even any emotion.

Take a quick look around.

The world around me seemed to become colorful all of a sudden.

The map in front of him, activated by magic power, was still floating around him, as if the terrifying sense of crisis just now was just an illusion.

However, immediately afterwards, he felt a weakness he had never felt before.

It was as if the entire person, both the soul and the body, had been completely hollowed out.

But he soon discovered that this was not a feeling, but something that really happened!
"My body and soul...why are they both empty?!"

Only an empty shell is left!
Wang Ba was shocked but not panicked.

He had encountered many difficult situations before, and although the current situation was somewhat unexpected, it was not time to despair.

"It's a spell... Someone cast a spell on me."

Recalling his previous feelings, he had also practiced the Divine Pattern Ritual and was no stranger to spells, so he quickly understood where the danger he encountered came from.

"Is it the work of Taoist Chongtong, or is it the Hundred Ghosts Mountain?"

Since wandering in the sea, he has only encountered these two living enemies.

He was cursed for no apparent reason, and it could only be these two who were responsible.

However, the possibility of Taoist Chongtong was quickly ruled out, because according to Taoist Chongtong's meticulous and cautious character, he would never attack him without any benefit. On the contrary, he offended Baigui Mountain not long ago, so Baigui Mountain was more likely.

Thinking of this, his eyes flashed with a hint of coldness and consideration.

Just now.

"hiss--"

Ah Er at his feet attracted his attention.

Only then did he notice that the black lines mixed with gold threads on Ah Er's back had completely disappeared.

"A-er, what's going on..."

Before he finished speaking, Wang Ba could not help but look in surprise at the ball of black mist slowly emerging in the void in front of him.

There were golden threads mixed in with the black mist, which flowed slowly and then poured into Ah Er's back, transforming into black lines again.

An indescribable sense of comfort suddenly appeared on Ah Er's face.

Not sure if it was an illusion, but Wang Ba vaguely saw the black lines on Ah Er's back. They seemed to be significantly larger than before, and the malicious aura was even stronger.

The rank that had just been achieved not long ago also seemed to be much more stable.

But none of this matters. What matters is that when the black mist turned into black lines on Ah Er's back, the fruit with a hint of golden light in the black mist was also exposed.

The moment he saw the fruit, Wang Ba felt that both his body and soul, and even deep in his heart, were filled with an extremely strong desire that he could not suppress!

The next moment, the fruit directly crashed into his body and exploded quickly!

The extremely pure essence, blood, and spirit essence instantly filled his shriveled body and spirit.

Wang Ba actually felt like he was reborn as a human being!
What surprised Wang Ba even more was that his soul, which had remained in the early stage of refining emptiness after entering the stage of refining emptiness, did not stop after absorbing the soul's essence and blood in the fruit, but continued all the way to the top.

He was so inspired that he did not dare to delay and sat down cross-legged, carefully feeling the changes in his soul and the growth of his body...

At the same time, the Xuanhuang Dao Realm appeared silently above his head, but it was like a towel soaked in water, quickly wrung out a large amount of water from the Dao Realm.

These waters represent countless Tao ideas.

The Dao condensed, and then was absorbed by the Xiaocang Realm along with the Chaos Essence, and transformed into the origin of the realm...

His Dao domain also shrank and solidified little by little.

But the dark yellow color became increasingly intense.

On the contrary, the rank of Xuanhuang Dao Realm is slowly falling.

But Wang Ba was completely unaware of it, or maybe he knew but didn't care.

With the Star Map of the Boundary Sea, it is no longer so difficult to comprehend the meaning of Tao, but the improvement of the primordial spirit must be done step by step and cannot be sloppy.

This was a disaster, but it was also a blessing in disguise, as it gave his soul a rare opportunity to improve.

Naturally, he would not miss such an opportunity. Although he did not know much about higher levels, the stronger the soul was, the greater the benefit would undoubtedly be to him.

Time flies.

His body and soul quickly returned to their original state.

A few years later.

His physical body had obviously improved a lot, and his soul was seemingly breaking through to a higher level.

More than twenty years later, his physical body finally reached perfection in the middle stage of Refining Void, and his soul also finally achieved a breakthrough.

Successfully entered the middle stage of Refining Void.

On the contrary, his Xuanhuang Dao Realm has now fallen back to the first level of perfection.

That is the perfection of the spirit.

But at this moment, he felt an indescribable tranquility in his heart and a special feeling that everything was under his control.

It seemed that even though his realm had fallen at this moment, he could still easily defeat his former self.

For the first time, he discovered what it felt like to have a powerful soul.

Do whatever you want and have complete control over everything about yourself.

No matter how big or small the matter is, everything should be taken into consideration.

With the same amount of effort, you can achieve ten or a hundred times the effect.

"Master was in this state when he fought against the six-fingered demon?"

"It should be. Xiaocangjie is the master's soul. This soul is very strong, so it can use the Dao domain to the fullest."

Recalling the previous experience of controlling the Xuanhuang Dao Domain, which was like a child wielding a sledgehammer, and comparing it with the current situation, he couldn't help but have an epiphany:
"All along, I have actually neglected the cultivation of the Yuan Shen, but have been a little too obsessed with the improvement of the Dao Realm."

The primordial spirit is the carrier of the Dao realm, and the Dao realm is an important manifestation of a cultivator's strength.

The higher the level of the Dao realm, the greater the magical powers.

This kind of cognition made him not attach so much importance to the soul, but his current feelings made him realize that his previous path seemed to be a bit too hasty.

Although this was due to considerations of the lack of resources in the Ogura Realm, he realized that if he wanted to go further, he should perhaps slow down his practice in the Dao Realm.

"No, rather than slowing down the cultivation in the Dao Realm, it would be more appropriate to say that the two should go hand in hand."

"This time, I have to thank the corpse-cooking ghost king of Baigui Mountain..."

Wang Ba stood up, looked into the distance through the boundary membrane, his eyes were slightly cold.

There, he could vaguely sense the location of the person casting the spell.

"Ah Er!"

Called softly.

With his tongue sticking out of his mouth, Ah Er quickly used all four limbs to crawl to Wang Ba's feet, grabbed Wang Ba's legs with his two claws, opened his mouth and drooled.

Black lines filled with malice kept flowing on the back.

Wang Ba raised his hand and gently threw a can of high-grade cockroaches into Ah Er's mouth. Listening to the crunching sound, he stroked Ah Er's head.

"From today on, you will follow me."

Ah Er couldn't help but nod his head in delight, chewing the crispy cockroaches in big mouthfuls.

This former ancestor of the Huangji Continent, after years of adaptation, seems to have completely merged with the Cursed Lizard.

Wang Ba nodded slightly when he saw this.

After a little sensing, he soon realized something.

Sure enough, after a while, Ji Ying hurried over with a look of joy and worry.

"With the help of the Sea Pearl, we have roughly figured out the method by which the corpse of Zhebi Zhi was controlled. We can probably find the corresponding spiritual materials, except for one thing that is not easy to find..."

"A deadly place filled with extreme resentment." (End of this chapter)
