Fangxian Heretical Path

Chapter 130 The Spiritual Nourisher at the Perfection of the Three Tribulations

The fog at Hama Beach is thick and persistent year after year.

Rumors circulated among the servants that the fog seemed to be related to the protective formation of the Five Internal Organs Temple, which explained the current situation.

But whether it was true or not, no servant could confirm. Everyone only knew that they were in the fog, unable to see the whole picture of their stomachs, just like ants in an anthill who only knew how to bury their heads and walk around.

Fang Shu and the others, being immortal beings, were no exception.

Although everyone has entered the gates of immortality, it is difficult to see the whole picture.

Before we knew it, we had been staying at Toad Beach for several days.

During these several dozen days, apart from meditating and strolling on the mudflats, they did not come into contact with any other areas of their stomachs.

Apart from providing them with a dormitory room for free, the Immortal Sect offered no other preferential treatment. They had to find their own meals and other necessities on a daily basis.

In this situation, there is almost no difference between them and the menial servants in the stomach, except that they have nothing to do on ordinary days.

Even though everyone felt "unimportant," not a single person had the thought of leaving the mountain.

This day.

Fang Shu sat cross-legged in the stone house, which was surrounded by stone walls within a foot in front, behind, to the left, and to the right, making it extremely cramped.

This place resembles a quiet room, yet it is not a quiet room.

After the seven people checked into the dormitory, they discussed the matter and then moved stones to build the four corners of the stone house themselves.

Normally, Fang Shu and his group of seven would have to discuss with each other if they wanted to use this narrow corner.

Although the stone chamber was cramped and simply furnished, resembling a latrine, the spiritual energy within it was genuine.

Fang Shu sat cross-legged. He didn't need to temper his body or inhale and exhale moonlight. With each breath, a torrent of spiritual energy flowed into his lungs from the outside world, then merged into his blood and qi, enhancing his cultivation.

The spiritual energy of this place is what keeps all the immortal beings, even those who are greatly disappointed with life in the immortal sect, from ever leaving the mountain.

Compared to Guling Town, this place is like Guling Town compared to the mortal world. The abundance of spiritual energy here made Fang Shu and the others, who had just arrived, feel somewhat uncomfortable.

For the first few days, they felt dizzy and disoriented.

Especially Wu Dan, who was particularly sensitive to his own health after experiencing the misfortune, was very worried and specifically asked Steward Sun, who was guiding everyone, whether he had fallen ill.

After Wu Dan was ridiculed by Steward Sun, everyone realized that this situation was just a case of a few people being "drunk and confused." It was like a poor person who hadn't eaten enough for a long time suddenly eating their fill every day, so they would feel a bit bloated.

They also learned from Steward Sun that the spiritual energy on Toad Beach belonged to a branch of the spiritual vein where the Five Internal Organs Temple was located.

The rest of the temple grounds are filled with even richer spiritual energy than this place, but we are not yet qualified to experience it.

Cultivating in such a rich spiritual environment naturally yields remarkable results for the immortal seed cultivators.

Gurgling!

Fang Shu continued practicing his skills in the cramped corner. His breathing was heavy and muffled, with the faint sound of wind and thunder, and his blood and qi seemed to be boiling.

Clusters of them rolled upwards, condensing into a fine mist that eroded the narrow stone wall, producing a faint hissing sound.

Finally, he suddenly opened his eyes and uttered a single word: "Zha!"

Its tongue flashed like thunder, and a breath of foul air shot out from its chest and abdomen, punching a crater in the stone wall in front of it.

At this moment, his muscles were like mercury, flowing and shimmering with a natural luster, and his eyes were bright, as if candlelight was burning inside them.

Such signs indicate that he has now completed the refinement of essence, and his physical body has been properly nourished and perfected, deserving the title of "precious body".

As Fang Shu slowly finished his practice, his blood and qi gradually calmed down, and a look of great joy appeared on his face.

On the Taoist talisman in his mind, characters began to appear and change:
[Realm Level: Perfected Three Tribulations (Able to Refine Qi)]

It has been less than half a year since he broke through to become a Three Tribulations Refining Immortal, and he has already completed the Three Tribulations cultivation. He can now try to plant a spiritual root and break through to Qi Refining!

The reason why we were able to progress so quickly, apart from the hard training over the past few dozen days, is mainly due to the fact that the environment here is different from that at the foot of the mountain.

On Toad Beach, every breath he took was like breathing in spiritual energy, exceptionally sweet. It was precisely this abundant spiritual energy that allowed him to reach the peak of the Third Tribulation within a hundred days!

Overjoyed, Fang Shu murmured to himself, "This mere Toad Beach has greatly increased my cultivation speed. If the surrounding spiritual energy were even richer, and I were to receive some spiritual herbs to nourish my body..."

He immediately realized that the "hundred-day refinement of essence" practice mentioned by the master of the inn was indeed true.

Immersed in the joy of his breakthrough, Fang Shu, after savoring the moment for a long time, sorted out his thoughts, then immediately lifted the stone slab and left the cramped corner.

Walk into the dormitory-style room.

He looked around and found that the stone slabs in the other three corners were sealed, and there was no one else in the room.

My roommates are either practicing their cultivation or going out.

He walked to the door and looked at the sky.

Although the sky over Hama Beach is often overcast, it is still possible to distinguish between day and night.

Seeing that it was still early before nightfall, Fang Shu wrapped himself in the robe beside him and hurriedly walked out of the stone house, heading towards the depths of the mudflats.

Now that he has successfully cultivated to the perfect state of the Three Tribulations, although he has not yet honed his skills and extinguished his fiery temper, it is time for him to start planning for refining his spiritual root.

Fang Shu, clutching the purse at his waist, walked towards the pharmacy and other places on the Toad Beach.

Soon.

He appeared on a street where everyone was wearing gray robes, their faces hidden under cloaks, making it impossible to see their appearance or expressions.

The mere appearance of someone like Fang Shu, who wasn't wearing a gray robe, attracted the attention of many people on the street, many of whom clearly harbored ill intentions.

However, Fang Shu did not pay attention to it.

As newly arrived immortals at Toad Beach, they were not servants, and they didn't even have the gray robes worn by servants, nor could they afford to buy them, so their situation was quite cramped.

However, within 100 days, they are in a safe environment. As long as they don't take the bait, no one will risk harming them.

Therefore, although Fang Shu has the demeanor and temperament of a greenhorn, as long as he is careful, there is not much of a problem.

Of course, he disguised himself before going out this time, not only using his immortal skills to shrink his body, but also using ointment to change his appearance.

At that moment, he looked like a simple and honest young man who had just left the village.

Before long, Fang Shu arrived at the Toad Beach Pharmacy.

He stayed in the pharmacy for about ten breaths, then shrank back and left awkwardly.

He then wandered through the street vendors and shops, eventually arriving at a place that resembled both a bookstore and an inn, with a sign above its entrance that read "Imperial Decree for the Construction of a Quiet Room".

This place is a shop in Toad Beach that rents out quiet rooms. It is said that there is a formation set up in the quiet room called the "Spirit Gathering Formation".

Therefore, although it is also located on Toad Beach, the spiritual energy in the quiet room is much stronger than that in other locations on Toad Beach, by at least 30%.

The higher the price of the quiet room, the richer the spiritual energy. It is the first choice for servants to concentrate on cultivating magic and breaking through in seclusion, and it is also safe.

Fang Shu's visit was not only to scout out the location beforehand, but also to find Manager Sun.

The man surnamed Sun who received the immortal seed a few dozen days ago was from the Miscellaneous Affairs Hall, and he was in charge of the business of this government-run quiet room.

Besides guiding them, the other party also had the responsibility of transmitting the Dharma to the servants of the immortals.

However, whether one can receive the teachings of such a person depends on fate.

Fang Shu was carrying a stack of "Fate Methods" in his hand. He felt a pang of regret, tidied his face, and bowed as he stepped into them.

After a few words, without any further complications, he was allowed to sit in front of the bookshelves in the shop and look at the books on his own for about the time it takes to drink a cup of tea.

Fang Shu eagerly flipped through the books in the Temple of the Five Internal Organs, and soon his eyes fell on the various introductions about spiritual roots.
