Walking alone with a sword, slaying ghosts and gods

Chapter 155: Seizing the Fifth Order Heavy Yuan Blood Purifying Flower

With a flash of sword light, Lu Cheng had arrived at a rather remote cultivator's cave.

"Senior Lin, my wife has been waiting for a long time. Please come in, Senior Lin."

In front of the cave, the two pretty maids accompanying Mrs. Shi bowed, one on the left and one on the right, and led Lu Cheng in.

Then the two of them did not go in, and their figures quickly disappeared into the fog.

Walking through, you will see a waterside pavilion.

This monk's mansion was more like a royal courtyard in the human world. It was magnificent, with a building every five steps and a pavilion every ten steps. Madam Shi and Guo Lingbao were already waiting at the door of the front hall on the other side. Lu Cheng did not let them stay any longer. He took a step forward, and his figure left a trail of phantoms, instantly crossing a long distance in between and arriving in front of the two of them.

“Hahahaha, what a great escape method. Moving around in a short distance and fighting in a very small space. This is a magical technique!”

Guo Lingbao was a connoisseur so he clapped his hands and laughed, praising the product endlessly.

But in fact, he was wrong. Lu Cheng did not perform any escape technique in that step just now. Instead, after achieving a small success in the Xiantian school's martial arts, his magic power nourished his body, and it naturally had such an effect when he exerted his full strength. The escape techniques that Lu Cheng was good at were the sword escape technique and the five elements escape technique.

"I didn't expect that Brother Lin also practiced physical techniques. He must have suffered a lot?" Madam Shi looked at Lu Cheng with tenderness and pity in her peach blossom eyes.

The three of them entered the front hall together, where two people were already sitting and waiting. Lu Cheng glanced at them and knew that these two people also had the magical power of Ningsha and Liangang levels.

Except for the top disciples of the twelve orthodox sects in the world, who can quickly break through the two realms of Condensing Sha and Refining Gang, the vast majority of cultivators in the world are very cautious and difficult in Condensing Sha and Holding Dan, and tempering their true form. It may take them hundreds of years and they may not be able to achieve perfection.

Not to mention those independent practitioners who don't even have the advanced mental methods, they are stuck in these two realms and find it difficult to advance.

"Brother Situ, Miss Shangguan, since we want to work together, we have to show our true colors. Otherwise, there will be no basis for cooperation. Do you think I am right?"

After Guo Lingbao said this, the two people in the room, one wearing a mask and the other wearing a hat and veil, removed their masks and revealed their true faces.

The middle-aged man wearing a mask had a ferocious look, with old and new scars all over his face, and he was missing an ear.

The female cultivator wearing a conical hat and veil was dressed in plain clothes. She had a beautiful appearance, but there was a hint of arrogance and sharpness between her eyebrows.

"This is my best friend, Shangguan Xue, the Star Lord of the Star God Temple, the number one female fairy under the seat of Lady Lishan."

Madam Shi stepped forward and held Shangguan Xue's hand, standing side by side with her, making them look very close. Shangguan Xue, on the other hand, frowned slightly, as if she was not used to it.

"This is my old friend. He was originally a casual cultivator named Situ Hua. He married into the Lin family forty years ago. Should he be called Lin Hua now?"

Hearing the name "Lin Hua", Situ Hua stared at Guo Lingbao with red eyes, making Guo Lingbao wave his hands repeatedly to beg for mercy and apologize.

"Four of you, what is it that has called me here? Can you explain it now?" After Lu Cheng said this, silence fell immediately. Situ Hua, Guo Lingbao, Madam Shi, and Shangguan Xue exchanged glances, and finally Guo Lingbao spoke:

"There is something that Fellow Daoist Lin will definitely be interested in, and I would like to discuss it with you, but the matter is hidden, and I don't know how to start for the moment."

"...Blood-exchanging flower?" Lu Cheng thought for a moment and asked. He had been dealing with this thing a lot during this period of time.

"It does include the fourth-order blood-changing flower. Even if one is lucky enough, it is not impossible to find the fifth-order heavy-source blood-cleansing flower."

"...I would like to hear the details." Lu Cheng was speechless for a moment, but found a seat and sat down.

The fifth-level Chongyuan Purifying Blood Flower was just a speculation of those alchemists. They believed that since the third-level and fourth-level Blood-Cleaning Flowers had appeared, the fifth-level Chongyuan Purifying Blood Flower should also exist. It was just that it was too rare and the place where it was located was too dangerous, so no one had found it yet.

There are even alchemists who have speculated on its medicinal properties. The third-level Blood-Exchange Flower can make up for the foundation of a foundation-building cultivator, the fourth-level Blood-Exchange Flower can make up for the foundation of a cultivator in the Condensing Evil and Refining Gang realms. So, can the fifth-level Chongyuan Cleansing Blood Flower make up for the foundation of a Jindan Grandmaster?
Of course, this does not mean to go against the iron rule of the Tongxuan Realm of "no regrets after the elixir is successful", but rather to purify the blood and refine the essence, so that the cultivator's own magic power can be transformed while the quality of the elixir remains unchanged, and finally reach a higher actual realm.

There is only one obvious difference between a Jindan Zhenren and a Jindan Grandmaster. The speed of their spiritual power is similar, but the Jindan Zhenren's magic power is extremely refined and pure. A cultivator who has reached this level can even rely on his magic power cultivated for hundreds of years to resist magic weapons, flying swords, earth, water, fire, and wind disasters.

If he uses this kind of magic power to control flying swords and magic weapons, the power will be beyond the reach of a Jindan Grandmaster.

So, if a fifth-order Chongyuan Cleansing Blood Flower really exists, can it help a fourth-grade Jindan Grandmaster to purify his mana and, while keeping the quality of his elixir unchanged, refine his mana to the third-grade level?

There are fifty avenues and forty-nine heavens. There is no unchanging number in this world. Perhaps this is the glimmer of hope.

"This matter concerns the lives of several of us. Before I tell you, Brother Lin, can you please make a Daoist oath? After I tell you this, if you don't want to participate, you will have to stay in this cave for half a year until we return safely. Then I will naturally prepare a generous gift to send you off."

"That's as it should be." Lu Cheng also understood Guo Lingbao's concerns. To seize such a valuable treasure, no matter where it was taken, it was necessary to be careful. Therefore, he made the oath of the inner demon without any hesitation.

"Huh, so Fellow Daoist Lin and we are on the same side. Fellow Daoist Lin Hua, we found a medicinal garden deep in the Yellow Spring Valley, and we are teaming up to seize it, but we are still short of one person. After spending some time together, we all recognize that Fellow Daoist Lin has profound magical powers, so we would like to ask Fellow Daoist to help. After we succeed, we will divide the treasure equally among ourselves."

At this time, Situ Hua was not angry when Guo Lingbao called him Lin Hua. It was obvious that Guo Lingbao had already seen that he did not care about this.

The man took out a talisman and threw it forward.

A light and shadow shot out from the talisman:
It was a dark and lush forest, but in the middle of the forest there was a medicine cauldron. Under the cauldron there was a pile of firewood and a blazing fire, but there was no one around to watch over the fire.

Instead, there was a giant centipede shadow circling around the medicine cauldron. When the centipede shadow approached, the raging fire could reflect the face of an old man with kind eyes on the back of the giant centipede's head.

It is the secret method of the Ranmu Shanlin family, soul transfer.
