Longevity begins with loose cultivation

In the quiet room, Lu Zhong was restless and couldn't settle down for a long time.

Nearly two years have passed, and even though he has tried his best, he still hasn't found a way to leave Fanghu even if he has a chance.

"Oh, can't we really go out?"

Thinking of this, Lu Zhong's heart sank.

But soon, he cheered up again.

After all, he is a cultivator of transforming spirits, even if he finds out that he is trapped, he will only feel depressed for a while.

Lu Zhong thought to himself, he has mountains, rivers and small caves, and the empty mulberry tree is still growing. With such a vast land, he can be self-sufficient. It can be used to cultivate to the perfection of incarnation.

As for Shouyuan?

As long as the Yang God still has spirit and energy to protect him, he will not be worn out.

In other words, he lived the same life as heaven and earth.

"I just don't know, hiding in the square pot, will I encounter thunder calamity?" Lu Zhong thought of this, a flash of light suddenly flashed in his mind, and murmured: "In the stage of transforming gods, the great thunder calamity once every 3000 years, If it does come, it might be an opportunity to get out."

But he also understands that the possibility is unlikely.

Otherwise, the previously trapped monks would have successfully escaped by this method.And the square pot, because of its particularity, will surely become a holy place for cultivation.

"So, is he immortalized in advance?" Lu Zhong smiled wryly.

If the thunder disaster does not come, he will not die due to lack of resources or exhaustion of life essence, so it is equivalent to living forever.

Until the Kongsang Shenmu can no longer produce aura.

However, when this day comes, it must be tens of thousands of years, or even tens of thousands of years later.

"Having said that, I can't do nothing."

Lu Zhong's eyes flickered non-stop, and his mind was already planning.

Right now, Shanhe Xiaodongtian, thanks to the growth of Kongsang Shenmu, has expanded to a radius of [-] miles, which is the time when there is a shortage of pioneers.

If some suitable candidates can be recruited into the Shanhe Xiaodongtian, it will be a great benefit to the development of the cave and the cultivation of elixir.

Having made a decision in his heart, Lu Zhong walked out of the cave gate.

The scenery outside the boat was still the same as before, and the monk who jumped off the boat was still there.

The corridor was obviously a little more messy than when he got on the boat.

The smell of blood in the air was also much stronger, and the sound of commotion from the middle and lower decks could still be vaguely heard.

It seems to be a bloody battle caused by supplies.

Seeing this scene, Lu Zhong frowned slightly.

It's only been a while, and the chaos on the ship has come to this.

After thinking about it for a while, he will turn his divine coercion and release it without reservation, and said via voice transmission: "Everyone on board, gather on the upper deck."

The sudden sound transmission not only interrupted the battle below and made the mirage ship suddenly quiet, but also made those high-ranking monks who stood by and watched began to think about it.

"Finally shot?" Someone murmured.

As the most powerful existence on the ship, the alchemist "Chen Dong" made those Nascent Souls and Alchemists fearful, so he didn't join the battle for a long time because he was afraid that this person would show up.

After a while, everyone appeared on the deck.

There is a clear distinction between each other.

Mortals, low-level monks, and high-level monks.

There are also groups. Ordinary people hold together to keep warm and are divided into dozens of teams. Cultivators are no exception. There are lone wolf, family, and sect groups.

Some have had a good life and still maintain their previous decency.

Of course, there are also people who are not doing well, whether they are mortals or monks. In just two years, they have lived like refugees, some are skinny, and some have ugly faces.

Lu Zhong took this scene into his eyes, his eyes moved from the most numerous mortals to the group of low-level monks, and his eyes gradually moved away to the seventeen high-level monks standing in the distance.

Looking at everyone in doubt, with nervous eyes, he said softly:
"To call you here today is just to give you a choice."

"Listen carefully, those who are willing to accept the protection of Mr. Chen, and who are willing to be loyal from now on, can enter this door of light. There is a vast world inside, and millions of acres of fertile land can be opened up for living and living.

But entering is not free of cost. Mr. Chen said something first, that is, in the future, if there is no consent from the subordinates, not only the first generation who enters, but even your descendants will stay in it for the rest of their lives. "

"How to choose is up to you."

After saying this, Lu Zhong waved his hand and opened the entrance of Shanhe Xiaodongtian.

And condense a water mirror to reflect the situation inside.

As for whether these people believe it.

He didn't bother to explain.

Afterwards, Lu Zhong kept silent.

Immediately, someone walked into the light gate, but they were all mortals.

In the past two years, they have suffered from hunger, and they will die if they continue to stay on the mirage.Now that there is one more chance to survive, how can there be any reason not to fight?

But these people are only in their early [-]s.

One after another, others entered.

After waiting for an hour, Lu Zhong slowly opened his eyes, looked at the deck and said:
"For the next ten years, every year on this day, I will appear here to give you a choice. After ten years, it will be once every ten years, and so on..."

Throwing away the words, he disappeared in a flash of thunder.

As soon as he returned to the cave, Lu Zhong opened all the protections to prevent outsiders from entering, and then entered the small cave in the mountains and rivers.

In the cave, the mortals who came in just now were all gathered in one place.

After a while, the avatars cleaned them up.

Compared with the previous appearance, not only is there a little more redness on the face, but even the injuries he suffered before were cured with magic pills, and he finally looks like a person.

Lu Zhong was not interested in showing up, but just came in to have a look. As for the future plans of these mortals, he had already ordered the avatars through his spiritual thoughts to arrange the plans.

In the short term, these mortals can only be regarded as a burden. Letting them participate in the cultivation of the elixir is not even comparable to the half-a-quarter hour workload of the avatar.

Fortunately, mortals reproduce quickly, and as long as there are several generations of reproduction, the population can be multiplied several times.

Furthermore, even though intermarriage among mortals has a low chance of giving birth to spiritual root offspring, it is not impossible.

When these monks with spiritual roots grow up, and after generations of bloodline optimization, the proportion of people with spiritual roots in the crowd can still be increased.

When that time comes, Shanhe Xiaodongtian will be able to give him a huge boost.

Just like the former Bihaizong.

……

Time flies.

Another year in the blink of an eye.

During the past period of time, the Mirage Ship has been in an eerie calm.

Due to the suppression of Huashen, the disputes that should have arisen were suppressed on the bright side. As for the dirty things that happened in the dark, Lu Zhong was not interested in paying attention to them, nor did he want to intervene.

As long as you don't slaughter mortals, you can do whatever you want.

At the same time, for the sake of being a human race, it is also to prevent future Dongtian people from starving to death.

Lu Zhong also specially sent an avatar to serve porridge at designated spots on the deck.

Not much, barely enough to eat.

By the way, the water mirror technique will be played on the side, which is the current life of the mortals who entered before.Unlike the phantom ship, where you are hungry and full, the mortals inside can live a carefree life without worrying about food and clothing as long as they go to and from work regularly.

It is impossible to say that such a huge contrast does not stimulate people's nerves.

According to Lu Zhong's observation, many people were moved.

this day.

On the appointed day, he opened the door of light again.

During this period, in addition to the long-awaited crowd, there were also people who came one after another, or dragged their families to enter directly, or left after hesitating in front of the gate of light, and there were also people who went and returned to enter the gate of light.

After an hour passed, the result came out.

There are both mortals and low-level monks, the total number is nearly three thousand.

"This is probably the most time..." Lu Zhongmo thought.

Although there are still 6000 people on the mirage, the remaining people, whether monks or ordinary people, are basically determined people, and most of them are unwilling to give up their future freedom in order to survive.

He didn't care, and he didn't intend to force it.

After all, everyone has a choice.

Turn around and go back to the cave.

As in the past, Lu Zhongfu began to cultivate.

As the pills were refined one by one, his cultivation was also increasing.

Meditating and refining qi now is no longer for the sake of improving one's cultivation, pursuing the illusory immortal way, but to be precise, it has become a kind of pastime, so as to make oneself less boring and bored.

Otherwise, Lu Zhong really doesn't know how to live the next day.

After the qi refining was over, there was a little more mana.

Immediately afterwards, he began to train his body.

With the formation of reverse good fortune, the practice of quenching spirit and shining method is no longer a problem.

The cultivation of this method, the first level of Yaosheng can be divided into three steps, which are skin tempering, bone tempering, and blood tempering steps, all of which use the medicinal spirit energy to temper the body from the outside to the inside.

The purpose is to further strengthen the body of the pure spirit. After the first layer of Yaosheng is completed, it can reach the level of being able to block a blow from the spirit treasure without dying.

Even though it was just a blow, it was already a great improvement for a frail monk.Can get the support to continue to survive after the body protection is broken.

After setting up the Yaosheng formation, Lu Zhong took off his robe and sat cross-legged in it.

After playing the formula, the spiritual energy of the pure medicine suddenly surged.

He couldn't help frowning.

If it is said that when taking the elixir, the medicinal aura transformed from the elixir is a well-behaved and obedient spirit beast, then now these medicinal auras are unruly monsters. Once it penetrates into the body through the skin, Lu Zhong feels as if he is being burned Generally, even if you use the Yaosheng method, it is difficult to alleviate it.

"Sure enough, body training is self-torture!"

Lu Zhong didn't say a word, but continued to grit his teeth and persist.

It took less than half an hour for the burning sensation to subside slightly.

At this time, his skin was already flushed red, turning like blood jade.

After insisting on it for twelve hours, Lu Zhong finally finished his body training.

The effort was not in vain, and there was even a small surprise.

After comparison, he found that his skin had improved a lot in terms of strength and toughness.

After this body training, the meridians have also been strengthened, and if they continue to accumulate in this way, the upper limit of daily movement skills will definitely be improved because of this.

……

In the third year, Lu Zhong appeared as scheduled.

Just as he expected, there were less than 1000 people who chose to enter the Light Gate this time.And this is already the result of his efforts to increase publicity and try his best to attract.

Even so, porridge giving has not stopped.

As for the new citizens of Shanhedongtian, the arrangements are still the same as before.

Those who are willing to marry will be given corresponding treatment.

Give birth to heirs and get rewards.

If it is a fairy seedling with spiritual roots, it can even be allocated a big house and live a comfortable life from then on.

Those who do not want to get married, as long as they complete their daily work, they can move freely after work.

After a period of construction, a city has been built in Shanhe Xiaodongtian. Although there are not many services provided, there are basic advance facilities such as restaurants, teahouses, and theaters. You can buy puppets and resolve them yourself.

Thanks to the increase in population, the planting of many elixir gardens has gradually entered the normal stage.

Time passes day by day.

The fourth year passed, and the fifth year came...

The tenth year, No.20 year, No.30 year...

Lu Zhong continued to give porridge, and opened the light door regularly, but the number of monks who chose to enter was decreasing at a speed visible to the naked eye.

As for the reason, he could see clearly.

Xu is relying on someone to give porridge, and the remaining monks and mortals are not afraid of starving to death, so they dare to continue.

At the same time, due to Lu Zhong's suppression, the mirage ship's environment can be called calm, so they began to try to improve their lives. At first, they only planted mushrooms. As time went by, even aquaculture developed.

Because of this, the complexions of these people gradually returned to red, and they even had the leisure to give birth.

Lu Zhong still let it go.

Continue to practice with great concentration.

Finally, in the 130th and seventh year of being trapped, he broke through to the middle stage of transformation.

Compared with the initial period, there is no huge change in various strengths, but the range of divine consciousness has increased by [-]%, and the total amount of mana has increased again by [-]%.

Thanks to this, the gray fog space deduces the future time, adding half a breath.

Reached three and a half breaths.

In addition, Yangshen also went a step further.

The benefit brought by this is that it becomes easier to attract the vitality of the heaven and the earth, and the number of activations each time is also increased a lot, which is reflected in the strength of the fighting method, and it also increases a lot, which is enough to form a huge force in the early stage of the transformation of the gods. Advantage.

But with good news, there is naturally bad news.

During the period of being trapped, Lu Zhong tried to collect gas many times.

But without exception, they all ended in failure.

This shows one point, that is, the square pot is indeed isolated from the inside and outside.

The only good news is that the method of nourishing qi with qi has not been affected. The amount of air that has increased like this is not much, but fortunately it is enough to maintain consumption.

As long as it is not used in large quantities, the Yang God will not wear out, and this "alternative longevity" can continue.

Thus came the 300th year.

Lu Zhong continued to take pills and practice Qi to increase his cultivation base as before.

In his spare time, he was doing body training.

It is not easy to practice the Spirit Tempering Yaosheng method. Even if it takes 300 years, he has only finished tempering the skin. He has just started to temper the bones, and there is still a long way to go before he can quench the blood.

In the quiet room, Lu Zhong finished his day's homework.

After taking a long breath, he began to pay attention to the situation of Shanhe Xiaodongtian.

300 years is enough for mortals to live for nearly ten generations.Thanks to this, the population of mortals has continued to increase. Even if a lot were eliminated due to close relatives and other reasons, it has increased to 30.

In the foreseeable future, the population will continue to explode.

With the increase of the population, the output of the spiritual medicine garden is also gradually increasing.

"Judging from the existing data, there is still a long way to go before reaching the upper limit of spiritual veins, and the same is true for land carrying capacity. It seems that the development of the elixir garden and the population policy implemented still need to maintain the status quo. Just pay more attention in the future.”

After reading the file, Lu Zhong got up and walked out of the quiet room.

Over the years, he has never given up, and has been trying to find ways to leave Fanghu.

Not long ago, I thought of another way.

Now ready to experiment.
