Immortality begins with monks from the side sect

Chapter 176 The use of alchemy, five ghosts and two choices

Outside Changping County, in the northern suburbs, there is a forest of flowers.

Yizhuang.

"Zi Zhi?"

Taoist Ma looked at Chen Ci, quite speechless. What does this man surnamed Chen think of his righteous village? Is it a wishing pool in the temple? Just go ahead and buy some corpses and corpses. Caidu came directly to ask if he knew that monks also need a sense of boundaries.

But seeing as Chen knocked on the door when he came in, he wasn't angry anymore.

It has nothing to do with his profound Qi cultivation.

Taoist Ma also didn't understand why this man named Chen had gone out for less than a year, and why he felt vaguely similar to when he met his ancestor in the village.

Of course, this does not mean that the cultivation level is the same. He estimated that the person named Chen only had more than fifty or so cultivation levels at most. He might have practiced some evil or secret technique that made him feel so fearful.

Thinking of this, Taoist Ma pondered for a moment, looked at Chen Ci with some embarrassment, and whispered: "Guanzhu Chen, although this Baihualin is a good corpse place, it is not a yin hole, and it can only contain one occasionally. , two corpse mushrooms, there are really no more.”

"The soul-fixing talisman can dispel evil spirits."

It is easy to say that some casual cultivators, or some heretical cultivators, have some cultivation skills, and it is easy to refine weapons and make talismans, but few people master the method of alchemy, which is the most resource-intensive and inheritance-oriented.

He knew that Chen Ci also raised a few corpse mushrooms and purchased a batch of corpse mushrooms a few years ago to fertilize them. If they were really used to make elixirs, it would not be enough.

Madao Ren's face changed slightly, and his expression was a little ugly, but he did not answer the question.

"However, lame, I know where there is a large amount of corpse mushroom, which may be able to satisfy Guanzhu Chen's needs."

But on the other hand, if you practice some evil magic and lose some essence, or if you are brave enough to fight and suffer some hidden injuries, it is normal to live a few years shorter. This monk surnamed Ma is in the business of collecting corpses and raising them, so his lifespan is afraid. It is more than a cut short of others.

Chen Ci didn't deliberately pick on other people's pain points. This person named Ma has been operating in Changping County for nearly 30 years. In terms of connections, he is probably better than him. He has done a lot of dirty work in private. His predecessor was only three or three years old. He had cultivated several corpse mushrooms in five years. He really didn't believe this veteran guarding a land of good corpses saying he wouldn't do anything.

Taoist Ma stared at the elixir in his hand for a while, then seemed to realize something, and asked: "No wonder, Master Chen, you want to study elixirs with corpse zhi?"

With a gentle smile on her face, Chen Ci popped two things out of her sleeves. The lame old man subconsciously caught them, but they turned out to be a pill and a talisman.

"Health-preserving elixir can strengthen the body and cultivate the vitality."

Anyway, in the vicinity of Changping County, there are dozens of side sects, and except for Mr. Chen, there is no one who can make the most basic five-grain fasting pill, let alone Peiyuan healing, or spiritual pills and the like.

Chen Ci nodded and answered casually.

The lame old man put the health-preserving pill in his hand into his mouth and felt the power of the medicine dissipate in his body. He sighed a little: "If I had swallowed pills like this when I was lame, I wouldn't have suffered serious injuries to the meridians in my legs and damaged my foundation."

"Ah."

Without attaining the Taoist foundation, although a monk eats Qi and practices, he is still a mortal body. He is stronger than a mortal, but not much stronger.

Chen Ci said gently: "With long-term use, it nourishes the body and makes the old trees bloom. Fellow Taoist Ma, would you like to try it?"

Although a Qi Refining cultivator has a life span of 120 years, if he has the skills to maintain his health and has enough money to find some longevity pills to swallow, he will not be unable to live for a few more years.

"The corpse energy has entered the body, and the body is old and frail. Fellow Taoist, the old injury on your leg has damaged the foundation. I shouldn't need to say more about the rest."

Chen Ci smiled and stared at the lame Taoist for a few times. When his expression became a little unnatural, he asked calmly: "Fellow Taoist Ma, your life is not long, right?"

No matter how difficult it is to get rid of, and no matter how unappreciative it is to serious cultivators, in the eyes of outsiders, it is still a high-level elixir that has many effects, so this old Taoist might just be reluctant to part with it.

"The old Taoist's Corpse Mushrooms are not enough. There are only eight of them that can be used. It is difficult for me, a casual cultivator, to master the elixir method. It will be useless if there are too many of them."

Taoist Ma's tone changed, as if he was pointing something, and his eyes fell in the direction of the mountains.

Ok?
Chen Ci touched his chin, his heart moved slightly, and he asked casually: "Fellow Taoist Ma, do you have a grudge against Majiazhai?"

He had forgotten that among the local monks, there was also the Ma family, which was based on the corpse path inheritance. The Ma family village had inherited it for more than three hundred years. Although there were no Dao-based monks, the ancestor of the Ma family was very important to ordinary Qi refining monks. , it can be regarded as a half-step foundation. With this background and this corpse raising place, it is normal to raise some corpse mushrooms.

It's just that, Chen Ci felt that the lame man in front of him seemed to have something in his words.

Taoist Ma was glanced at by Chen Ci and felt an inexplicable chill on the back of his neck. When he came to his senses, he quickly waved his hand and explained: "No, old Taoist, although I got into trouble and escaped from Majiazhai, I really don't want to stay in Changping County if I have a grudge. After all these years, I Okay, now that I think about it, it’s not really a big deal.”

After a pause, Taoist Zai Ma smiled bitterly and explained: "To be honest with Guanzhu Chen, corpse mushrooms are of little use to monks unless they can be refined into elixirs, but corpse cultivation can be swallowed directly without fear of toxicity and assist the corpse path. For sacrifice, there are quite a lot of corpse mushrooms in the corpse raising ground in the village."

"and then?"

Chen Ci thought about the meaning of these words and asked.

"Although corpse mushroom is not of much use to ordinary monks, one plant costs at least three to five thousand taels of silver to sell."

Taoist Ma glanced at Chen Ci carefully and said, "My ancestor has always wanted to find a serious alchemist, but there are really no wild cultivators in the mountains who know this skill. Master Chen, if you can use corpse sesame to make elixirs, I think you can do it with Ma Taoist." Let’s talk in Jiazhai.”

The ancestor of the Ma family is looking for an alchemist?

Chen Ci thought about it in his mind and had some guesses.

After he killed people and performed justice for heaven, he got to know the details of the ancestors of the Ma family. The method of extending the life of the ancestors of the Ma family requires swallowing a large amount of elixirs all the year round, using the spiritual power of plants and trees to boost vitality, and resisting the corrosion of the essence of hardware. The same is true for Qingquanzhai Medicine Field.

But swallowing the elixir directly is not likely to be very effective. The ancestor of the Ma family must be looking for an alchemist to concoct a herbal elixir to extend his life.

This is done.

But Chen was inexplicably lacking in confidence, and subconsciously glanced at the Bone Heart-locking Sword hidden under the Taoist robe.

No one should be able to recognize it, right?
Let me state in advance that the man surnamed Ma died at the hands of Brother Lin and had nothing to do with Chen. As for the White Bone Heart-locking Sword and Liuyang Leader, he picked them up on the roadside in the mountains. ,Yes, it is like that.

If someone doesn't believe it, there's nothing you can do about it. Anyway, Mr. Chen of Heshanzhiguang never lies to people, really.

Chen Ci traced his fingers on the handle of the hammer, pondered for a moment, and made a decision in his heart. He said lightly: "Fellow Taoist Ma, do you know about Du'e Palace?" "Old Taoist knows."

Taoist Ma didn't know why Chen Ci suddenly got involved in the newly opened Taoist palace. This matter was a bit lively in Changping County. Even if he stayed in Yizhuang and mass graves all year round, he had heard a little about it.

"It's good to know. There is a lack of temple blessings in Du'e Palace. Fellow Taoist, please go take care of it."

Chen Ci smiled gently, but could not refuse: "There are so many Taoist friends who have saved the dead, and they must be kind-hearted. It is reasonable to serve as a temple blessing to gather incense for the star Lord Du'e. The star Lord has given the gods talismans and spirits. Dan, how about it as a reward?”

"."

No, he is a dignified corpse monk, how can he be kind-hearted?
Besides, the collection of corpses in Yizhuang and the congratulations in Daogong and temples are not related to each other.

Taoist Ma's face was a little hesitant. He was not sure what Chen Ci meant by this move. However, the spiritual elixir talisman he had just made was indeed quite beneficial to his longevity. Even those who practiced the corpse path, no one wanted to live longer. Year.

"I need someone of my own to take care of the Dao Palace and some pill materials at the same time."

Chen Ci smiled indifferently, and there was something different in his words: "Fellow Taoist Ma, you should regard these talismans and elixirs as gifts from Lord Du'e Xingjun. If you are not one of your own, you can't get them."

own people?
Fellow Daoist Ma?
Master Ma's face moved slightly when he heard the implications of Chen Ci's words, but he also understood that the man surnamed Chen probably wanted to trade some corpse sesame with Majiazhai, and was worried that his heart was towards Majiazhai, so he used The location of the temple blessing, as well as the soul-fixing talisman and the health-preserving pill were used to hold him.

His foundation was severely damaged, and he had to take elixirs and use talismans all year round to have a chance to make up for it. The expenses related to extending his life were not a small amount. Ma Laodao was still thinking about how to get hold of the few plants he had. Zhizhi was sold at a high price, but now it seems that it can be prostituted for free?

Hey, the corpses collected in Yizhuang are incense for the dead, and the blessings in Daogong Temple are incense for the living. If there is any problem, of course there is no problem.

As for why the ancestor is not familiar with it, he is not familiar with it at all.

"can."

Taoist Ma was silent for a long time, and then slowly responded: "But I have never been a temple blessing, and I need to come back to Yizhuang to practice in the evening. I hope Guanzhu Chen can forgive me."

"It doesn't matter."

Chen Ci looked at him deeply: "Birth, old age, illness and death are things that people fear. Fellow Taoist, you have been dealing with these things in the past. As long as you pay attention, you can do well."

"In addition, I have three prescriptions: health-preserving pills, high-quality Bigu Pills, and Huangya Pills."

Chen Ci waved his hand: "Go and contact the Ma family. To tell the truth, I need hundreds of pieces of corpse sesame. If I can't get the price, Fellow Taoist Ma, you won't let me down, right?"

"Yes!"

Ma Laodao was swept away by Chen Ci and felt inexplicably nervous. He slowly exhaled a breath and responded seriously.

Seriously, in just a few years, how did the Heshan Gaiden, who was only in his 20s or 30s, become so oppressive? The side sect is really extraordinary. Fortunately, when he bought and sold some bones the year before last, he had some incense feelings. , otherwise it would be really hard to say when dealing with them.

Chen Ci is also very satisfied. Not only has the matter of Du'e Palace Temple Zhuan been solved, but also the medicine for Zhizhi has been found. There is no need to deal with Majiazhai. It's a win-win-win situation, and Mr. Chen wins three times!
After just waiting for a while, he began to try to refine Qi-nourishing Green Zhi Dan, and the improvement of the Five Yun Yin Magic was just around the corner.

Why is it difficult to practice being possessed by five ghosts? Humph, how can a living person be suffocated to death by urinating?

After taking out 20 spirit beads and buying a few corpse mushrooms from Ma Laodao's hand, Chen Ci waved his hand and left Yizhuang gracefully.

Refining alchemy, refining elixir, what is more, refining elixir.

Mr. Chen didn't believe it. With his sweat, hard work and talent, he couldn't even get a good elixir from someone else.

However, besides refining the elixir, it is also important to practice the Five Ghost Transporting Method to Dzogchen and see how it will change.

Half a month later, late at night, it was cloudless.

Sanyin Temple, backyard.

Chen Ci sat cross-legged on the underworld, with his eyes slightly closed, reciting the Five Ghost Skills. In the spirit-nurturing bottle beside him, nine drops of blood rose out of thin air, trembled and rolled, and disappeared into the void amid bursts of laughter. between.

Suddenly, the entire backyard was enveloped in a thin layer of gray mist. It was like a semi-transparent veil, but full of ghosts. It seemed that thousands of children were chasing and playing in it, but there was no sound. There was no shadow, just like an illusion flashing back and forth.

Chen Ci didn't feel noisy.

He just felt cold.

"Whoo~"

Chen Ci slowly opened his eyes and exhaled a cold breath from his mouth. A strong wind suddenly spread to the surroundings, as if a few "ouch" sounds were heard. The gray fog that surrounded the entire backyard was completely blown away, and his figure also appeared in the moonlight. Under the color.

"The master just froze to death."

Chen Ci shook his body and looked a little inexplicable. The feeling just now was quite mysterious.

But he also knew that his method of transporting five ghosts should be a breakthrough.

"I don't know what the situation is. After consummation, it will be an infinite matryoshka doll, or there will be some new changes."

Chen Ci adjusted his condition and then looked at his golden finger panel.

Five ghost transporting methods: Grandmaster (heart ghost, spirit ghost, choose one of the two)

Hey, it seems that he has finally reached the limit of this Five Ghost Spell. It is really not easy.

But it’s gone like this?
What to choose?

Chen Ci said "Eh", squinted his eyes, and then found two translucent explanations behind his panel, which seemed to be there and not there, which was very strange.

Five ghost transporting methods: Grandmaster (heart ghost, spirit ghost, choose one of the two)

Grandmaster/Mind Ghost: Five Ghosts and Five Internal Organs
Grandmaster/Spirit Ghost: Ghost Escape Technique
What does it mean?
Chen Ci scratched his head. His five ghost skills were full of liver and liver. It was the choice between these two that made him a little confused. The golden finger of love was so hot that he couldn't let the two of them, Mr. Chen. All of them.
