Longevity and Immortal Cultivation: Starting from Controlling Your Own Essence.

Chapter 234 The Five-Aspect God Wheel Is Missing Only One
In Panlong Palace.

Zhang Yao and Taoist Tianshuang were still exchanging information about what happened in Tianzhou, and Zhang Yao was very interested in the details.

Yu Wentai had already refined the golden elixir, even though his strength was not as good as him, it would not be too far behind. Taoist Tianshuang was only at the early stage of the golden elixir, how did he escape from his hands?
"...It's just a fluke!"

Taoist Tianshuang mentioned this matter with a look of fear:
"That formation mage surnamed Liu may not look amazing, but his strength is extremely terrifying!"

"At the beginning, I set up a trap with the Ice Soul of Ten Thousand Years as a bait and teamed up with another comrade to ambush him, but who would have expected that person to break the trap easily and kill that fellow with a single gesture!"

"At that time, I was so horrified that I almost thought I was going to explain where I was..."

Hearing this, Zhang Yao revealed a thoughtful look.

Based on his understanding of Yu Wentai, this person probably saw that it was a trap long ago, but in order to get more Wanzai Ice Soul, he planned to play with them.

"And then, how did you get out of your body?"

Zhang Yao asked a question.

"later……"

Taoist Tianshuang showed a trace of rejoicing, and said:

"It's a coincidence. Back then, when I was seriously injured and was about to die at his hands, I met a 'Heavenly Gate Messenger'."

"The heavenly gate envoy took a look at me with the 'Tai Yi mirror' in his hand, saying that I shouldn't die today, and the formation master surnamed Liu immediately retreated..."

Hearing this, Zhang Yao suddenly became clear:
"Then you are truly blessed!"

The envoys of Tianmen, from the "Nine Heavens Alliance" that governs the nine mansions of Tianzhou, have always taken it as their mission to maintain the orthodoxy of Tianzhou. While the number of them is small, their actions are also mysterious.

There are rumors that the selection criteria for Tianmen Envoys are very bizarre. It depends on the monk's birth date and fate, regardless of his cultivation level. A Tianmen Envoy may be an old monster of Nascent Soul, or a young monk in the Qi refining period.

The Tai Yi mirror in their hands claims to be able to illuminate three lives and determine fate. Basically, no one dares to disobey what they say.

In Liu Cang's memory, Wuxing Sanren, he has met the Heavenly Gate Envoy more than once. Although the two sides did not meet much, the impression left on him was very deep.

"Yeah, when I think about it now, I still feel like I've survived a catastrophe."

Taoist Tianshuang let out a long sigh:
"Since that day, I hid in a cave in Tiandaofang City, where I recuperated meticulously and avoided vendettas for a full ten years."

"It wasn't until a few months ago that I found out that the array mage surnamed Liu disappeared two years ago and disappeared without a trace. Then I dared to come out boldly to do activities with confidence."

"Until I collected enough ice souls for ten thousand years, I hurriedly left Tianzhou and returned to Mani Kingdom."

Hearing this, Zhang Yao couldn't help sighing:
"Fellow Daoist Tianshuang, this journey is really not easy."

After speaking, he paused and said:

"This time, I'm willing to exchange five million spirit stones and five magic weapons for your eternal ice soul. What do you think?"

"The price is too high."

Taoist Tianshuang shook his head again and again.

Five million spirit stones and five magic weapons are already comparable to the entire net worth of many Jindan ancestors, and are enough to make any Jindan monk's heart beat.

But the problem is, if he only had this kind of structure and was greedy for ordinary wealth, he would not have been able to put aside his own affairs and flee back to the Central Plains to obtain the Ten Thousand Zai Ice Soul.

His purpose is to let this prestigious and promising Patriarch Qingxu accept this great favor firmly, how could he accept the high price?
"Brother Qingxu, the price you gave was higher than the market price, but what I paid was far lower than the market price. You can just give me a cost price."

Taoist Tianshuang said, paused for a moment, and then continued:

"Just one million spirit stones and one magic weapon."

"……it is good!"

Zhang Yao took a deep look at him, and without any further persuasion, he agreed without hesitation.

He also knew what the other party was asking for, so he made a promise on the spot, and gave the other party a reassurance:

"Fellow Taoist, don't worry, if you are in danger in the future, you only need to send a message, and the poor Taoist will never refuse!"

"Okay, I'm satisfied with Daoist brother's words!"

Daoist Tianshuang was overjoyed and thanked again and again, Zhang Yao also solemnly returned the gift.

soon:

The two completed the transaction, and the whole party's Wanzai Ice Soul also fell into the hands of Zhang Yao's puppet incarnation.

After chatting with Taoist Tianshuang for a while, this small-scale puja was coming to an end, and many Jindan monks left one after another.

Zhang Yao also found an opportunity to apologize to the host and Patriarch Ze, and then drove away with Dunguang, and turned back to the Changle Mountain area at the fastest speed.

After three days:

Zhang Yao's incarnation traveled tens of thousands of miles, and finally returned to Changle Palace.

In the Temple of Sealing Demons:

Zhang Yao sat cross-legged on the futon, in front of him was a huge light blue transparent ice crystal, which could reflect his own blurred reflection and emit an astonishing coldness at the same time.

"Kakkaka..."

The cold air emanating from the Ten Thousand Years of Ice Soul even covered the sapphire floor and the dome of the beams and pillars of the Demon Sealing Hall blessed by the power of the formation with frost.

The characteristic of the Wanzai Ice Pore is that the larger its size, the more astonishing the cold air. The cold air from this Ice Pole alone is enough to freeze to death an ordinary foundation-builder cultivator.

"It's so cold, it's indeed the genuine Wanzai Ice Soul!"

Zhang Yao nodded in satisfaction:

"It's rare for Taoist Tianshuang to work so hard. This time, I really owe a lot of favors."

With such a large volume of Ten Thousand Years of Ice Soul, if he collects it little by little, he will probably have to collect it for a long time.

Now that he has done it in one step and saved a lot of effort, he is naturally extremely satisfied.

"It's the practice of retreat, which cannot be achieved overnight."

"Among the five-phase supernatural powers, the cumbersomeness of the practice of the 'Hilling Cicada Thought' is second only to the 'Infernal Shadow Walking Technique', and it will take at least several months."

Zhang Yao's expression pondered, and his thoughts turned:
"It seems that we have to spread the word to Mani Temple, asking them to temporarily send a golden arhat to replace me in the Changle Mountain Devil's Den."

It is not good to practice in the Mani Kingdom, and nothing can be hidden from the supervision of the Mani Temple.

But he wasn't going to do anything shameful, and he didn't want to touch Mani Temple's plan, so there was no need to avoid them on purpose.

…………

Three days later.

Mani Temple sent a golden arhat to take over Zhang Yao's duties.

Zhang Yao went to a big Buddhist temple in the Changle Mountain area, borrowed a quiet room for practice, and prepared to start practicing.

In the quiet room:

"Rumble..."

Sitting cross-legged, Zhang Yao tried his best to mobilize his blood, and he could hear the roar of the rushing air like the Yangtze River.

In the practice method of five-phase supernatural powers, Wanzai Ice Soul corresponds to the water attribute, and it is necessary to use water to generate ice and separate the ice phase to refine the foundation of the "Han Chan God Idea".

In the Five Elements Yunling Formation, water belongs to the kidneys and governs the body's fluids. Therefore, the entry steps of the Han Chan God's idea are very strange. It needs to use its own blood to warm and nourish the ice soul for thousands of years, and cooperate with the operation of mana, and gradually remove it. melt.

Mixing hot blood and ice water, flowing through the whole body and cooperating with Jindan Tuna, strengthens the array of five elements and improves the foundation of the kidneys at the same time, and finally can practice the idea of ​​chilling.

There is no doubt that this method of cultivation is tailor-made for the practitioners of the "Wanhua Dutian Zhenjing".

Switching to an orthodox qi refining monk, although the power of qi and blood is not bad, it is extremely weak compared to the third-order spiritual creature, the Wanzai Ice Soul, and it is impossible to melt it with mana.

As for the body-refining cultivator, although the body is extremely strong, according to the different schools of practice, most of the schools have reached the stage of Jindan, and the blood flowing in the body is not necessarily blood.

"Buzz!"

Zhang Yao put his hands on the surface of the ice poker, with a solemn expression, and began to stimulate the blood that was almost boiling in his body.

Under his deliberate urging, countless tiny drops of blood ooze from both palms, red as the setting sun, with a hint of gold, and a faint fragrance.

The blood beads gathered more and more, like hot magma, with the cooperation of mana, the ice cape was quickly melted into a pothole the size of a bowl, and the ice soul filled with abundant ice-attribute aura flowed out. of water.

"hiss……"

Zhang Yao took a light breath, trembling all over.

The icy water mixed with blood and poured back into the body, participating in the cycle of qi, blood and mana, brought the bone-piercing extreme cold that almost made his muscles and bones from the cold almost lose consciousness.

Fortunately, he has practiced three-way five-phase supernatural powers, and his viscera have been greatly strengthened, especially the heart, which is the main fire attribute, which continuously resists the cold, so that he can hold on.

In such suffering, time passed by little by little.

One day, two days...

One month, two months...

It was not until four full months later that there was a sudden long howl in the quiet room, revealing an unconcealable joy.

Quiet room:
Zhang Yao smiled all over his face, and in front of him was the Bing Po with only a little residue left, which he put into the storage bag with a flick of his sleeve.

"It took 120 days of hard work, and it's finally done!"

With a thought in Zhang Yao's mind, he activated the "Hicing God Thought" he had just refined, and a thin layer of frost immediately appeared all over his body, and the cold air penetrated from the inside out.

After just a few breaths:

Zhang Yao's entire body became a light blue translucent ice sculpture, and his figure could only be vaguely seen.

The cold cicada divine appearance method belongs to the auxiliary magical power among the five-phase magical powers, which can turn oneself into a state of ice protection, dormant like a autumn cicada.

In the state of ice body protection, one's own defense is greatly strengthened, and at the same time, injuries can be recovered extremely quickly under the gestation of the ice soul reunion.

Of course:
Zhang Yao himself has a powerful talent for energy transformation, which is no less than the supernatural power of immortality, so it seems that he doesn't need this chilling idea.

But for one thing, this supernatural power is an essential part of condensing the "five-phase god wheel", and it is also a necessary step to refine the ultimate "nine-color sky wheel", and it is impossible to give up;

The second point is that this supernatural power is also effective for the injury of the soul. Even after the cultivation is complete, even if there is only a part of the remnant soul left, it can be restored to its original state. This is exactly what Zhang Yao currently lacks, and it can make up for him. short board.

Although the Great Formation of Thousand Souls is good, it is not invincible after all. Who can guarantee that there will be no severe injuries in the future?His talent can't quickly make up for the damage to his soul.

"Aurora Escapism, Extinguishing Divine Thunder, Tianfeng Intangible Body, Chilling God's Thoughts..."

Zhang Yao sat cross-legged, his eyes were deep, and his spirit was moving one after another.

White, purple, blue, blue... With the continuous operation of the four magical powers, the brilliance of the four different colors began to rise, and there were faint signs of cohesion.

At the center where the four radiances converged, something terrifying seemed to be born, and the aura became stronger and stronger.

But in the end, the four brilliance collided with each other, but they failed to complete the final endless wheel, as if the last piece of the puzzle was missing, and they could only be separated from each other.

One of the five elements and five phases is missing, and the cycle cannot be completed after all.

"Phew...the five-phase chakra is about to come out, only the final 'Infernal Shadow Walking Technique' is left!"

Zhang Yao took a deep breath, feeling a little pity, but at the same time cheered up.

He already has definite clues about the Infernal Yin Soil needed for the Infernal Shadow Walking Technique, and now he is waiting for the few Jindan monks in Damo to send him a message.

According to what the ancestor of the Shenhua School Jiuhua said that day, this date is very close, and a large-scale outbreak of the Kuroshio may usher in at any time.

Once he is refined into the five-color chakra, his strength will immediately usher in a surge, and at the same time, a restriction will be lifted, and he can smoothly enter the middle stage of the golden elixir.

"Cultivation is especially difficult in the golden core realm."

"It takes two to three hundred years for a middle-grade golden elixir to cross a border, and it may even fall into a bottleneck."

"There is no bottleneck for a top-grade golden elixir, and a first-grade golden elixir is the fastest, and it only takes 80 to [-] years to cross a realm. With the blessing of a large formation, I can go even faster."

Zhang Yao thought of this.A faint smile appeared.

It has been more than 40 years since he broke through the golden elixir. Although he has been practicing the divine channel technique for a long time and has never single-mindedly practiced painstakingly, he is not far from the middle stage of the golden elixir.

If he has achieved the mid-Golden Core Stage and has the Five-Aspect God Wheel in his hand, then he can walk sideways in the Golden Core Stage.

"The future is promising!"

With a sigh of emotion, Zhang Yao straightened his clothes immediately, got up and left the quiet room, and went to bid farewell to the abbot of the Buddhist temple.

After a moment:
"boom!"

A white ray of light crossed the sky and flew towards Changle Mountain at high speed.

After returning to Changle Palace and thanking the golden arhat who had been stationed for him for several months, Zhang Yao resumed his old days of living in seclusion.

Occasionally visiting other comrades, or going to the Ziyao Palace in Bingzang to buy some spiritual gold, is also done by the puppet incarnation, and the style of acting is very low-key.

Until this day two years later:
The nine magic formations in the Mani Temple were all circulated to the outside world, announcing that the 20-year-old Mani Dharma Assembly is about to be held, and an invitation was sent to all foreign Jindan monks.

"Time flies so fast!"

"In the blink of an eye, more than ten years have passed, and it's time to hold the Mani Fa Conference again."

In the Changle Palace, Zhang Yao sighed with emotion, and began to organize the storage bags, select some treasures and spirit stones, and prepare to participate in the trading session of the Mani Temple Ceremony.

The Mani Temple is located in the Central Plains, so it naturally hides countless treasures, but not only those on the list of good deeds, the arhats in the temple also have many good things.

This time, the Mani Law Conference naturally has places available for trading and auctions, which is a great opportunity for acquisitions.

"By the way, there is also the Accelerating Arhat who is in charge of the Dajue Hall!"

Zhang Yao recalled the agreement he made with the famous Accelerator Arhat seven years ago, but he didn't take it seriously.

After all, many Jindan monks from outside have seen this arhat who is passing through. The lady Baiyu and the ancestor Heze are all the same as him, and this arhat took the initiative to invite him.

"When the time comes, let's visit him by the way."
