Immortal in my old age, I will live forever

Chapter 57 057: The morning is like blue silk and the evening is snow!Top Grade Spiritual Roots
After Jiang Qiang left.

Chen Dengming also walked around by himself.

Although this Jingxiufang is not big, maybe not as large as the gathering place, but it is superior in planning and specification. The layout of various buildings and streets is reasonable, and the use of space is in place. In addition, the aura is twice as strong as that of the gathering place. It is refreshing to walk around.

Chen Dengming didn't plan to spend money to stay in the hotel.

Looking for a place to make do for a few nights.

An inn in the city needs a low-grade spirit stone for one night, and there is nothing more than a few plates of cheap melons and fruits.

If you stay a few nights less in the hotel room, you can save a round of training resources to mobilize the Spirit Seizing Formation, and you can break through to the fifth level of Qi training faster.

Strength is the first priority, and other enjoyments can be put aside first.

And now, in addition to the spiritual stones needed for cultivation, he also needs to buy a mid-level magic weapon as a defensive card. The low-level magic weapon can no longer cope with some fierce battles.

Half a day later, Chen Dengming went into several magic weapon shops and inquired about the prices of intermediate magic weapons.

Perhaps it was because of the special dialect of his Xialiba people.

The magical artifacts in several shops are at least [-]% more expensive than Master Hu's once, as if they deliberately slaughtered him.

However, he didn't buy the magic weapon, but he also got an invitation letter from the dark workshop by relying on his sweet words.

It has been heard for a while that the Lin Family Auction House will have a secret workshop.

Counting the time, Chen Dengming went around and went to the place where Jiang Qiang sells monster meat.

It was found that many people had already crowded around.

A monk made an offer and directly bought dozens of catties of monster meat to take away.

After all, it is a monster in the middle stage of Qi training, which is much more valuable than the meat of a monster in the early stage of Qi training.

Jiang Qiang sells it at the price of ten catties and one piece of low-grade spirit stone, which is [-]% cheaper than the price of the spirit meat shop, and [-]% cheaper than the normal stall price. There are not a few people who are interested.

Chen Dengming watched from the corner, secretly observing the expressions of the surrounding monks, and if anyone showed any greedy or strange expressions, he would secretly record them.

But after looking around, there were not two people who were thinking about it.

Jingxiufang already has rules, whoever dares to make trouble in Jinxiufang will be asking for trouble.

And the monks who can enter Jinxiufang for entertainment are not fools.

It is not easy for Jiang Qiang to sell the corpse of a monster in the middle stage of Qi training.

From the wound on the corpse, one can see the tyrannical strength of the person who hunted the monster. Maybe it is a monk in the late stage of Qi training. disaster.

...

Chen Dengming observed for a while, then returned to a suitable resting place he found earlier, and began to practice silently.

Xiaozhen Ling twisted and trembled at his waist uncomfortably, expressing emotion.

"Dao, Taoist friend, not today, don't you need me to help you practice?"

Faced with Xiaozhenling's "probing his brain", Chen Dengming's head was full of black lines, causing the tent from his waist to rise and fall.

He pinched the array disk at his waist with his hands, and mentally sensed it.

"Ling'er, I asked you to help me in my cultivation before, but you cheated and played tricks every day, and I won't let you out recently, so leave it here."

In the end, Chen Dengming didn't have the nerve to say the word 'bad cheap', because he couldn't bear to hurt the heart of a cute creature.

But indeed, he was tired from running around these days, and in order to avoid exposing Linger, he didn't let the formation spirit help him practice, but simply urged the formation method to practice, and the efficiency dropped by about [-]%.

As a result, it now seems that this spirit is about to be suffocated, and I want to come out to breathe.

"Forget it, then you come out to get some air, and now you are sleeping on the streets in this city, and it is not good for you to practice."

Chen Dengming patted the array, and then looked around.

He was in a dead-end alley at the end of an alley, and there were some firewood, earthen jars and other sundries piled up around him.

The front left is the back door of a family, but it is remote and quiet.

The spirit floated out, twirled around happily, the skirts were flying, and the clothes as thin as onion wings were fluttering, very happy.

Chen Dengming took a few glances, and felt a little happier. He changed his posture and continued to practice.

During the long journey in the past few days, he has practiced enough in the divine walking technique and the weapon control technique, but the fundamental method, the three-element gathering spirit skill, has fallen behind, and is still three-quarters of the way to the breakthrough.

But now his lifespan limit is as high as 282 years, and there are still 119 years left to live well, so he can continue to practice "Destroying Life and Pulling Seedlings".

"My current spiritual affinity has reached 50 points, and I only need to continue to increase it by 50 points, and I can be promoted to a high-grade spiritual root. At that time, my cultivation speed will increase again."

"According to the current state that every six years of life loss can increase the affinity of four points of spiritual energy, I only need to lose 75 years of life to be promoted to a high-grade spiritual root."

In 75 years, he could still bear it.

After practicing the current set of postures, Chen Dengming turned to practice "Life Losing Seedlings" instead.

In an instant, the twilight quietly surrounded the entire Jinxiufang along the mountains.

The entire Jinxiufang seems to be gradually lit up, and the colorful lights of each shop are bright.

The square market at night is not only not deserted, but even more prosperous.

In the distant Mingyun Mountains, desolate and sad beast roars could be faintly heard one after another, sometimes accompanied by shrill and ear-piercing cries.

But the formation around the city was fully activated.

Waves of aura-like barriers condense and appear, and gradually fade away. The tyrannical spirit will inexplicably make people in the city feel extremely safe.

For this alone, the so-called overnight accommodation fee is worth it.

However, this still does not prevent many down-and-out monks and traders from gathering in groups in the wilderness outside the city, using the sky as their quilt and the earth as their seat, and wandering about.

They are casual cultivators who make a living in Jingxiufang.

I have long been used to going to the workshop to do business and pick up work during the day, and going out of the city at night to live nearby.

At least on the edge of the Jinxiufang city, it is relatively safe at night, and the ones to watch out for are not monsters, but the same kind.

Chen Dengming was awakened by the activation of the formation.

Only then did I realize that more than three hours had passed, and I was already hungry before I knew it.

He lowered his head and twirled two strands of white hair to examine, then drew out the Ice Spirit Knife, and looked at his own face against the illuminated blade.

After depleting his energy and energy, his face looked a little tired, and the crow's feet around his eyes, which had recovered, reappeared.

"Hahaha, I look old again. It really looks like blue silk in the morning and snow in the evening."

Chen Dengming smiled optimistically, brushed back his gray hair, and checked the status on the panel freely.

"Fourth stage Qi training monk [Chen Dengming]

Shou: 238/282
Spirit root: gold, wood (top grade 0/100)

Martial arts: "Chen's General Compendium of Martial Arts" (Dzogchen)
道法：《炼蛊篇》（大师27/100）、《三元聚灵功》（四层102/400）、《陈氏道法篇》（精通35/100）《损命拔苗术》（一层78/100）、《驭器诀》（大师17/100）、《点金术》（初学26/100）”

In the past three hours, it can be said that he lost ten years of life energy every half hour.

For 75 years, Shouyuan completely slipped away, and his aura affinity increased by 50 points, and he was directly promoted from a middle-grade spiritual root to a top-grade spiritual root.

Chen Dengming only felt that at this moment, his perception of the aura floating in the air had been greatly enhanced, which was simply not the same.

The range of spiritual energy perception around the body seems to have expanded a lot.

Although there was no substantial change in the scope of control over the aura, the whole person was inexplicably more confident.

He only felt that the whole world seemed much clearer, as if the colors were richer.

Many subtle situations that were ignored before are also felt in my heart.

The surrounding plants and trees, as well as the voices of people in the distance, seemed to be fully perceived.

...

"This is, high-grade spiritual root? High-level aptitude? Even if I am Xiangke Lingen now, I can still be called aptitude.

Unexpectedly, I have already done what the senior demon who created this technique could not do. I don't know if there are any ruthless people in the demon world who can spare their lives and do it?
Hehe, forget it, a monk of the Demonic Dao may not want to risk his life, but he will be forced to risk his life..."

A smile appeared on Chen Dengming's face.

The benefits shown by the improvement of spiritual root and spiritual affinity are not only in cultivation.

Due to the enhanced affinity and perception of spiritual energy, the speed of the corresponding Taoism will be faster, and the speed and power of casting spells will be slightly stronger than those with poor spiritual roots. These are the advantages of good aptitude.

He was in a much happier mood, although this time his life essence was directly lost for 75 years, it seemed that he didn't have many years to live.

However, the benefits of re-enhancement of spiritual root qualifications will soon be fulfilled one by one in the future.

This kind of crazy way of increasing one's spiritual root at the expense of one's lifespan may only be willing to be willing to increase one's lifespan from time to time.

For others, even Nascent Soul monsters with a lifespan of 2000 years may not be forced to, and they may not be willing to waste more than a hundred years of lifespan to improve their spiritual roots. It took thousands of years.

After all, there are almost no old monsters who can cultivate Nascent Soul with poor aptitude.

And the so-called maximum lifespan, unless someone like Chen Dengming can directly see the specific lifespan on the panel, who knows what his lifespan really is?

Just like ordinary people know that a person can normally live to be seven or eighty years old, so the life expectancy of a normal person is seven or eighty years, but there will always be people who die before the age of 80 due to various reasons.

The same is true for monks, who don't know how much their own lifespan is, nor whether the specific effect of practicing "Destroying Life and Pulling Seedlings" is [-]% or [-]%. Meta try.

Those who insisted that Lao Tzu's dignified foundation-building monks lived for two hundred years, but now they only live for a hundred years, and I dare to fight for a mere 20-year lifespan, most of them are ducks that have been dead for a long time.

Even the Demon Dao Jindan cultivator who created this technique first tried it on many Demon Dao disciples, and after the delusion research matured, he tried it himself, and raised his middle-grade spiritual root aptitude to top-grade, and then quickly broke through to the Yuan Dynasty. Infant period, prolonging the lost lifespan.

This abacus was played so that all the monks in the world of cultivating immortals heard the sound.

It's a pity that the Golden Core cultivator who created this exercise still failed in the end. He miscalculated his own life span and the efficiency of his practice of this exercise, and died with hatred
...

At this time, he became a top-grade spiritual root monk, and Chen Dengming only felt that the spring breeze was proud of his horseshoe.

He was not in a hurry to practice while the iron was hot, so he tidied up his clothes and walked out of the alley to the market to watch Jiang Qiang sell meat.

After more than three hours, Jiang Qiang was still busy, and he didn't know if he had a mouthful of hot food.

Seeing the other party's enthusiasm, the number of customers around increased, and it seemed that a lot of monster meat had been sold.

Chen Dengming gave up the idea of ​​approaching.

He winked at Jiang Qiang from a distance, and quietly transmitted the sound transmission to tell him where he was staying in the night.

Chen Dengming then went to the booth selling Gu over there, and inquired about the origin of the Gu.

However, after some testing, the result surprised Chen Dengming.

...

"These Gu items come from the Merchant Alliance?"

"That's right. Originally, these Gu items have been sold by Hutong Street and other forces from the gathering place, but I heard that that force has been wiped out now, alas, it's miserable.

The manpower and goods here were bought by our business alliance, and the things were sold by our business alliance, and the price was unified, so it was not so chaotic. "

"Oh"

Chen Dengming's eyes flashed, he smiled and said, "Brother Taoist, to be honest, my younger brother is also interested in this business. I wonder who is in charge of your business alliance here?"

"Master Tiger. He also came from the gathering place. When there was a fight there, all the members of our business alliance were kicked out. When Master Tiger came here, he started the business of Gu. What do you want? Refuge? I don’t think there’s a chance, now we have too many people.”
