Tao and Heaven

Chapter 198: Human Immortal Dharma, Eighty-seven Dao Foundations

"The Nanchun Army is good at making porridge, and it will keep you full and full."

As the loud voice spread, a Nanchun military clerk wearing a small hat stood on a makeshift wooden platform and shouted loudly. The crowd below was lining up in an orderly yet sparse manner like ants.

There are similar porridge shops everywhere in Luoshui. Since they are not spending their own money, the Nanchun Army is extremely generous in distributing food. They do not produce food, but they are redistributing resources. This is also the reason why the righteous army that has been able to rise to power can easily get the response of many people.

There has never been anything new throughout history.

Gu Wen and others checked into the tavern again.

Jiu Zhenjun brought a jar of fine wine that he had recently brewed to the table. Akabane picked up the jar and drank it all in gulps. He said in a disappointed tone, "It has no taste."

"My friend, have you lost your five senses?"

Jiu Zhenjun asked, and Gu Wen nodded without hesitation, explaining: "It's caused by magical powers and spells. I wonder if the senior has any solution?"

"I am only in the Fusion Stage, how can I be worthy of such honor?"

Jiu Zhenjun shook his head, then took out a jade talisman from his bosom and said, "However, a good friend of mine when I was young has become a medical master. Hundreds of years ago, he went to Taixu to look for a chance to become a semi-immortal. You can use this token to look for something, maybe he is not dead yet."

"Thank you."

Gu Wen accepted the jade talisman and paid some spiritual medicine as reward.

Jiu Zhenjun returned to the counter and passed by Jun Yan who walked in from outside. His fingers were covered with blood. His right hand holding the sword hung down, and the tip of the sword was almost dragging on the ground.

The smell of corpse on his body was disgusting. Even a person with a very high emotional intelligence like Jiu Zhenjun couldn't help but frown slightly.

If he didn't know Jun Yan's background and Gu Wen's existence, he would never have let the other party enter the tavern.

Zombies are things that God hates.

The most famous evil method is corpse training, which was originally created by some evil monks to prolong their lifespan. An old monk can extend his lifespan tenfold by training himself into a zombie.

It is longer than Bingjie Guixian and easier.

But everything has a price. After becoming a zombie, you are no longer yourself, but just an evil spirit with your own memories.

'Is he still the original heir of the Demon Sect?'

Jiu Zhenjun lowered his head and wiped the table, not wanting to delve into the cause and effect.

"It feels good, it feels good, I finally let out a sigh of relief."

Jun Yan came and sat down next to Gu Wen. He returned the Zhanxia Sword to Gu Wen and put the two Qiankun bags on the table.

"I remember that you and that girl Lu Chan robbed several families before. I thought there would be no profit to be made. I didn't expect that these guys were good at making money, and all the money went to Emperor Daojun."

Gu Wen probed his spiritual sense into the Qiankun bags. Both of these Qiankun bags were made of the fur of the demon race's geniuses, so the space was five or six times larger than the one he bought from Murong Xue.

From the original large fish tank, it turned into a small room that was three meters long, wide and high.

At this time, various spiritual medicines were piled up in the Qiankun bags, and the two Qiankun bags were stuffed full. And they were all medicinal materials with a lot of Tiansui, not spiritual objects such as medicinal fruits.

The roots of plants and trees are the most precious of all miraculous medicines.

Jun Yan said: "Since we entered Luoshui some time ago, most of the spiritual medicines coming out of Linchuan County have been intercepted by the noble families here. It seems that you have robbed a lot, but in fact they secretly took away more."

"But with so many spiritual medicines, I think only you can digest them all."

There is an upper limit to how fast the immortal elixir can accelerate one's foundation. Even top-level geniuses like them cannot consume so much at once.

Jun Yan estimated that even if he were to eat them all, he might not be able to finish them in three years. By that time, who knows how many new spiritual medicines would have grown, so it would be better to choose the best.

"How many elixirs has this dog emperor consumed over the past few decades?"

Gu Wen couldn't help but sigh, this was just the accumulation of a few months.

He took out a ginseng and put it in his mouth. The white-feathered bird that had been hiding in his sleeve also poked its head out and stood on his shoulder.

It looked at Gu Wen eagerly, waiting to be fed obediently.

【One Year of Heavenly Marrow】

The fate was vibrating, and some information came out that shocked Gu Wen's spirit. Then, with the intention of verifying it, he took several kinds of things and put them into his mouth.

【Three Years of Heavenly Marrow】

Jun Yan seemed to see through Gu Wen's thoughts and said, "The efficacy of this batch of spiritual objects is obviously much higher, or in other words, since the goddess got the immortal medicine in your arms, the number of spiritual medicines in the entire Chengxian Land has increased."

Gu Wen asked: "Is there any connection between them?"

"In the cultivation world, a breakthrough by a powerful person will cause the concentration of spiritual energy in an area to drop in a short period of time."

Jun Yan's explanation gave Gu Wen more ideas. He only guessed that the elixir of immortality was in the longevity elixir furnace in Bian Jing. The urgent situation forced him to seek more information.

He asked, "After the breakthrough, or before the breakthrough?"

"It varies from case to case, but most realm-related breakthroughs are pre-breakthrough."

Jun Yan didn't know about the immortality elixir, but he could still make a guess, saying, "Could it be because of the Immortal Sword and the Golden Elixir Supreme Saint's immortality? Too many people became immortals in a short period of time, resulting in a decrease in the spiritual energy originally absorbed by the Taoist temple."

Well. After Tianquan Mountain, the output of spiritual medicine has not increased.

Gu Wen suppressed his thoughts, because at this moment the white-feathered bird was already pecking at his earlobe gently and looking at him pitifully.

The bird's low intelligence is only relative to its status; compared with ordinary animals, it can barely be classified as a spiritual beast.

About the IQ of a three-year-old.

Gu Wen put it on the table, and the white-feathered bird dove into the Qiankun bag and ate it until it was round and plump in a short while.

Another quarter of an hour passed, and the two Qiankun bags were emptied. The white-feathered bird obediently shed its feathers on its own initiative.

There are fifteen feathers in total, so it is no problem to give one to everyone in the small group.

Gu Wen handed each root to Jun Yan. He took it in his hand and looked at it. Then he frowned and stepped back with great pain.

"You eat it."

Gu Wen was stunned when he heard this, then he immediately took out his magic sword and said with a vigilant look on his face: "Return the body to Laojun."

"roll."

Jun Yan's pale face turned black with anger. Gu Wen was just joking. He put away the magic sword and said with a smile, "Why are you so kind all of a sudden?"

The Heavenly Corpse would definitely not resist taking the root of the immortality elixir, because it could increase the chances of becoming an immortal. It was just strange that Jun Yan was not that kind on weekdays, at least he would not give up the immortality elixir.

"Since this thing can be regenerated, we are not in a rush, and I don't want to give the old guy a bargain."

Jun Yan bit his nails, as if trying to restrain his bloodthirsty nature.

"From now on, whether it's me or Akabane, we can only turn things around after you become an immortal."

Gu Wen's mind broke free from the brief relaxation and said, "It's not far to become an immortal, but is it too late? Chi Yuzi has 800 years left to live, and Yu Hua has 100 years. You may die at any time."

"Who in this world can survive?"

Jun Yan leaned back in his chair, put one foot directly on the table, and stared at the ceiling in a daze.

"Practice, cultivate immortality, cultivate humanity, I don't know what I have cultivated in this life. Practice Qi, practice spirit, practice Tao heart, I don't know what I have cultivated. In the end, I am still a furnace for people. Half-immortal is not that great, just born earlier than us."

"If we had been born ten thousand years earlier, they would have been the ones to be the cauldron."

Shouldn't it be their turn to become immortals? Gu Wen was somewhat helpless. Jun Yan had always been evil in character, a typical bad guy. "Hong Chen, why do you practice?"

"To survive, to avoid being bullied."

Gu Wen answered without hesitation, and Jun Yan was stunned. He didn't expect it to be so plain and simple.

He thought Gu Wen should be a little different, after all, he was at the top of the Earth Ranking and now he was probably the first on the Human Ranking. But in the end, Gu Wen was just like them, just trying to survive.

"Can't you say something more profound and profound?"

Jun Yan was a little speechless, and then as if to demonstrate, he shouted: "The purpose of cultivation is to abuse one's power. When will we become immortals? At that time, I will lead the Demon Sect, the dead nun will lead the Buddhist Sect, and Chi Yuzi will lead the Taoist Sect. We will then make you the Supreme of the Human Race."

"You're not that high-class."

Gu Wen rolled his eyes, then asked Chi Yuzi, who was sitting quietly beside him, "What does Chi Yuzi want to do after becoming an immortal?"

"Kill Chi Ling."

"Then?"

"I don't know, but I'll follow you first."

"Little girl movie."

Jun Yan couldn't help but laugh, and then he was kicked out by Chi Yuzi, flying hundreds of feet into the sky from the door.

When he ran back, he saw Chan Xi, who was wearing a Bagua Taoist robe, also coming down. She gave a very serious, even somewhat old-fashioned answer to Gu Wen's question.

"To seek the Dao and become an immortal is the aspiration of our generation of cultivators, but it is not the ultimate goal. If I become an immortal, I will first carry on the long-cherished wish of my ancestor Qing Cang and serve the people. Then I will continue to study the Dao and strive for perfection, and strive to reach a higher level."

Jun Yan complained: "Another good student has come. In comparison, Hong Chen, you are much more normal."

Boom!

A burst of thunder suddenly sounded, and Jun Yan flew up again.

Gu Wen pulled the corner of his mouth and said, "I know you don't like the corpse aura on him, but you can't just hit him whenever you get the chance."

"Have it?"

Chanxi blinked innocently.

Then Gu Wen gave the elixir of immortality to Chanxi. She rubbed it in her hand for a while, then stepped back.

She said, "Junior brother needs to gather the Ninety-Nine Dao Foundation right now, so it would be a waste for us to eat it."

If she ate it, she could accelerate the condensation of the eighth level of Dao foundation, or step into the ninth level of Dao foundation first. But Chanxi was sure that she would stop at the ninth level of Dao foundation, and it would be impossible to complete it in one step.

No one has ever been able to achieve perfection from ancient times to the present.

But Gu Wen gave her hope that perhaps he could achieve this feat.

Gu Wen glanced at Chi Yuzi and knew that there was no need to hand over the elixir of immortality as she had already shaken her head.

So he had no choice but to eat it all. If he had monopolized the benefits in the past, he would have been very happy, but this time he felt a little heavy.

Gu Wen returned to his room and sat cross-legged in meditation.

【Nine Hundred Years of Tiansui】

[If you are destined to become an immortal, you will need another thousand years less, and the amount of heavenly marrow required is 8,000 years]

There are fifteen roots of the elixir of immortality. One root lasts forty years, and fifteen roots last for six hundred years.

The confluence of the Nanshui River, the Luoshui River, and the two canals connecting the three adjacent counties is equivalent to one-third of the territory of Daqian, providing Gu Wen with 600 years of Tiansui at one time.

His judgment was correct. If one wanted to become an immortal, he had to fight for the world and possess more resources.

Gu Wen thought about it and put all his celestial marrow into his Taoist foundation.

[The eighth level of Yuqing Dao Foundation, Dharma is born, and human beings become immortals. It takes 400 years of heavenly marrow]]

With one breath and one breath, the eighth level of Tao is basically completed.

The Eightfold Dao Foundation unites the spirit and body, and encompasses the mysteries of returning to the void, merging the body, and achieving Mahayana. If one achieves the Eightfold Dao Foundation, there is hope for Mahayana in this lifetime.

Gu Wen’s goal was naturally not as simple as Mahayana. He set his sights on the eightfold perfection of Jade Purity Taoism and the Sun Method.

[The perfection of the human immortal Dharma is based on the human form, the original essence is flawless, the spirit is complete, and it requires six hundred years of heavenly marrow]

[The Sun Method, Yin and Yang, creates all things, one level requires a hundred years of heavenly marrow]

【Tian Sui 500 Years】

Is it to practice immortal techniques, or to first cultivate the human immortal form?

Now neither of them is enough, but a hundred years is different from the vacancy of at least five hundred years in the Sun Method. Next, continue to attack the next county, or take down Linchuan, and a hundred years will be in hand.

But five hundred years may not be enough, and the subsequent nine-level Dao foundation is also needed.

The human immortal form is not bad either, and perhaps it is more suitable for me as a human form. Gu Wen made a decision and closed his eyes to continue to stabilize his breath.
-
Three days later.

Gu Wen slowly opened his eyes, and the image of a human immortal slowly emerged. He did not have a ten-thousand-foot-tall body, but only a glimmer of moonlight draped over his body.

Magic power, soul, five senses, everything that one can perceive and control, are extending endlessly.

In the end, they all converged into the only power that could reach the heavens and the earth. Gu Wen stretched out his hand and grabbed a ray of spiritual energy. He stretched out his hand and pinched a ray of the energy of heaven and earth in his palm.

All invisible things cannot escape the palm.

Grasping is the most frequent action of humans after birth.

"Have you condensed the human immortal form?"

A joyful voice was heard and a breeze blew. In a flash, a white figure appeared in the room, like a fairy brought by the evening breeze.

In the tavern on the first floor, the City Lord Wukong, wearing a jade ring and barefoot, just stepped in. He heard bursts of Taoist rhythms in the void. He raised his head and closed his eyes to listen, and the sounds became more and more intense.

After opening his eyes again, Gu Wen walked down the stairs step by step. The two of them paused as they looked at each other.

"Senior Wukong."

Gu Wen bowed slightly, and this remark startled everyone on the first floor. Jiu Zhenjun suddenly turned around and saw that there was no one at the door.

But the word "Wukong" was deafening, because in Liangjie City, every time the three lists were closed and evaluations were made, Wukong's name would always be on the list.

Wukong City Lord smiled and said, "Congratulations to my friend for reaching the top of the human ranking. I have prepared three rewards for you. I wonder if they are enough."

“What elders give is not about quantity.”

Gu Wen answered in a neither humble nor arrogant manner. If it were others, they would just be flattering, but only his extraordinary talent made the immortal Wukong feel comfortable listening.

"Hahahaha, young friend calls me elder, how can I be stingy?" Wukong waved his sleeves, and thousands of ripples appeared in the space, sweeping across like a plundering heaven and earth.

In the end, ten magical herbs appeared out of thin air, each of which contained spiritual energy.

Gu Wen let the white-feathered bird swallow it, and after it turned into an elixir of immortality, he swallowed it himself and obtained the Hundred Years of Heavenly Marrow.

【Six Hundred Years of Tiansui】

It is just enough to practice the Dharma of a human immortal to perfection.
