Chapter 5: Xiantian Bone Strengthening Skill

In his previous life, Ning Qi suffered from ALS and died in despair.

In this life, he was in danger the moment he was born, and learned that he had suffered for hundreds of lifetimes, which made him obsessed with living.

He hated death.

He wants to live and live forever.

After Ning Qi finished speaking, Taoist Longshan was slightly stunned, and Jiang Baishan was even more stunned.

Taoist Longshan frowned slightly and wanted to rebuke Ning Qi for being too ambitious, but after seeing the amazing desire in the eyes of the half-year-old child, he fell silent and swallowed the rebuke that was on the tip of his tongue.

Jiang Baishan said:

"Xiaojiu, there is no way to achieve immortality in this world..."

But before he could finish his words, Taoist Longshan interrupted him with a wave of his hand.

He looked extremely serious as he stared at Ning Qi.

Ning Qi did not retreat at all. This was his goal and it would never change.

a long time.

Taoist Longshan looked at Ning Qi and said slowly:

"At the beginning of martial arts, one must refine the skin, flesh, tendons, bones, organs, marrow, blood, and spirit. These are the eight stages of body tempering. If one achieves perfection without any omissions or deficiencies, one will have an endless supply of Qi and blood, and will be immune to all diseases. At this stage, one's lifespan has reached the limit for mortals, which is two decades."

Ning Qi's eyes were bright, but he remained unmoved.

Two Jiazi are too short.

"When the body is tempered perfectly and the inner strength is fully understood, it is the inner essence realm. With the inner essence added to the body, every move you make has great power, and you can live for two hundred years!"

Ning Qi remained unmoved.

Two hundred years is not enough.

Taoist Longshan withdrew his gaze and turned to the thousands of green mountains outside Mingwu Pavilion.

"When the internal energy is stacked nine times to form Gang, it reaches the Gang Yuan realm. The Gang Yuan breaks out of the body, with unparalleled power and a lifespan of four hundred years!"

"Gang Yuan has gone through the three realms of White Mist, Jade Liquid, and Yuan Dan. His divine will has increased and he can resonate with the heaven and earth, reaching the realm of unity between heaven and man. Splitting rivers and breaking mountains is a piece of cake. This is the realm of heaven and man, and his life span is 800 years!"

Speaking of which.

There was also a subtle yearning in Taoist Longshan's words.

He was still half a step away from the realm of heaven and man, but this half step was as difficult as ascending to heaven, and those below heaven and man were all ants. Fortunately, he had extraordinary aptitude and would be able to reach that point in a few years, otherwise he would not have obtained the Zhenwu inheritance that year.

Eight hundred years!
It is said in the past that there was a long-lived man named Peng Zu, who lived for 800 years. If one had such a long life, it would be enough for him to watch dozens of generations of mortals come and go. To mortals, what difference would that make him a god?

Ning Qi gained a deeper understanding of the wonders of this world.

He was slightly expectant, but still shook his head slowly.

Eight hundred years is a long time, but compared with immortality, it is just the time it takes to sleep soundly with your eyes closed.

"Master, is there anyone who lives longer than the gods?"

Jiang Baishan listened to the conversation between master and disciple with bated breath, and felt that his ninth junior brother was truly extraordinary. The Heavenly Man Realm was already the most powerful person in the world, enough for countless people to spend their entire lives pursuing it. Yet he was still not satisfied?

The look of surprise in his eyes became even more intense.

Perhaps this was not just the nonsense of a child. A person's achievements are inextricably linked to his ambitions. At least he had never thought about such a question. Thinking of this, he actually felt a little respect for his junior brother.

Taoist Longshan answered the question irrelevantly:
"What do you think of this green mountain?"

Ning Qi followed his gaze and saw the majestic and magnificent rolling green mountains, which made him feel insignificant. He sighed subconsciously:
"Nature and nature bring them up, and it is hard to change them."

Taoist Longshan said earnestly:
"It is not impossible to move, but it is difficult to move. Even green mountains are like this, and they cannot last forever, let alone humans. How can they be immortal?"

“The meaning of a person’s life does not lie in how long he lives, but in what he does.”

It is a good thing to have big ambitions, but he is worried that his disciples may have unrealistic ideas and take a detour.

Ning Qi was silent for a moment, having heard the advice from Taoist Longshan.

If he were an ordinary person, he would not dare to have extraordinary thoughts, but he has the maximum level of enlightenment, so immortality is not a delusion.

Ning Qi kowtowed respectfully and said solemnly:

"Please give me some advice, Master!"

Taoist Longshan helped Ning Qi up and sighed:

"Idiot."

He is only half a year old but has such intelligence. It cannot be judged by ordinary people.

He said in a distant voice:

"Above the Heavenly Man, there is a Martial Saint. If a Martial Saint appears, he will be invincible in the world. As for lifespan, it is said that a Martial Saint can live for thousands of years, but no one has ever seen it. Some people say that they may have broken the limits of the world and reached another world." "As for those above the Martial Saint, I don't know. Perhaps those who have reached the peak of martial arts can be immortal for ten thousand years. Everything is unknown. Only those who have reached the level of Martial Saint will know."

"If you have the ambition to live forever, you may be able to see a different scenery if you climb to the highest peak of martial arts."

Taoist Longshan decided to provide some guidance, which might not be a bad thing.

He looked at Ning Qi in front of him with a smile.

Ning Qi's eyes were bright.

The Martial Saint is invincible in the world and can live for thousands of years?

Although it was far from what he expected, it was not bad. When he became a Martial Saint in the future, he would naturally have more time to pursue the true method of immortality.

The meal must be eaten in one bite.

It is unrealistic to achieve success overnight.

"First set a small goal and become a martial saint!"

Ning Qi made up his mind secretly.

If it is confirmed at that time that martial arts cannot lead to immortality, then try another path.

By then, the essence of life will be elevated, his understanding will inevitably be stronger, and he will be standing on a high ground with a rich foundation, so it will be easier for him to open up new paths, which is much better than trying to find some way to achieve immortality.

After listening to Taoist Longshan's words today, Ning Qi felt that his goal was much clearer. He thanked him again:
"Thank you, Master, for clarifying my doubts."

Seeing Ning Qi's energetic appearance, Jiang Baishan was afraid that he would be hit in the future, so he couldn't help but remind him:

"Xiaojiu, maybe there is no way to live forever in this world?"

Ning Qi smiled slightly.

He bowed respectfully to Taoist Longshan and Jiang Baishan, then waved his arm and left.

Only his voice remained echoing in the attic.

"If there is no way to immortality, I will just walk out of it."

Inside Mingwu Pavilion.

The concentration incense swirled up and there was silence.

Taoist Longshan and his disciple looked at each other and saw the astonishment in each other's eyes.

This boy is extraordinary.

……

After the conversation with Taoist Longshan that day, several true disciples of the Zhenwu School were surprised to find that the precocious Ninth Junior Brother no longer pestered them with questions about martial arts, but was instead thinking about something by himself.

"Xiaojiu, put the things you want here, and remember to eat them on time."

Luo Wentian shouted to Ning Qi in the courtyard, then shook his head and left.

Ning Qi is very independent. Except for some things that he cannot complete due to his small body and needs assistance, he completes everything else by himself.

After learning that Ning Qi's bones had begun to take shape at an accelerated pace, Taoist Longshan began to have Ning Qi take medicinal supplements, mostly some medicines to strengthen the body and replenish the vital energy.

Ning Qi took this opportunity to get some other medicinal herbs.

As for the function, it was naturally for his idea.

Inside the house at the moment.

Ning Qi ate the medicinal soup he had prepared, and then sat cross-legged on the bed like a little adult with his eyes closed.

In his body.

The innate energy was circulating according to a specific pattern. With each circle, the innate energy dissipated a little, as if it was dissipating into every part of his limbs and bones. Then, Ning Qi felt a tingling sensation rising deep inside his body, which was much more intense than in the past few days!
Ning Qi was not surprised but happy.

"It's done!"

He understood the essence of his bones, took the innate energy as the foundation, and supplemented it with the Ning's medical book he created, and finally he completely understood the art of bone preservation.

"This skill is called Xiantian Bone Nourishing Skill!"

This is what Ning Qi has gained during this period.

After talking with Taoist Longshan, he learned that root bones are invisible things, and he has been experimenting on how to actively stimulate the innate energy to accelerate the growth of root bones. This is bound to be much faster than the previous passive acceleration.

And now, it’s finally done!

"With the Xiantian Bone Nourishing Technique, I can actively nourish my bones, and the speed at which my bones take shape can be accelerated several times!"

Ning Qi's eyes were full of anticipation.
