Longevity begins with alchemy

Chapter 168 Nine Demonic Mountains
Time flies, winter returns, and it is spring again in a blink of an eye.

The spring rain is continuous, and there is a damp breath everywhere.

The sentimental rain is like the tears of someone leaving, and the ruthless wind blows the flowers away.

This kind of weather is actually not suitable for traveling far, but Su Yi has packed his bags because his master Shen Mo told him that the appointed day was approaching and it was time to hit the road.

Bai Lan had agreed to go with Su Yi, but she didn't need to show up for the time being. She would only hide in the pagoda's magic weapon and consolidate the method Shen Mo taught her.

Regarding that method, Bai Lan later told Su Yi that this method is called "Girls' Sutra", and it can only be practiced by a woman whose vitality has not been released.

In fact, the origin of this technique is somewhat complicated. This Girl's Sutra is actually a part taken from the "Fire Yang Sutra" of the witch clan.

Donghai Qinglong and Shen Mo cherished each other and were close friends. Before Donghai Qinglong left the northern border, he gave the token to Shen Mo and asked him to give it to the cave people.

Because Qinglong had returned to Southern Wilderness before and integrated many Southern Wilderness techniques into one, he also demonstrated Southern Wilderness techniques to Shen Mo before leaving.

Shen Mo, a prodigy from the world, improved the Nanhuang Kung Fu method and turned it into a quick success method.

However, although the improvement has greatly shortened the time for practitioners to improve their cultivation, it also has some disadvantages, that is, only specific groups of people can practice.

Shen Mo has been obsessed with the Five Elements all his life, and found the method to achieve the Extreme Yang in the extreme yin, which is the Girl's Sutra.

Because Shen Mo was entrusted by a friend, he couldn't just find outside women to practice and verify whether the Girls' Sutra is feasible.

He has been waiting, hoping to find a suitable caveman to practice this Girl's Sutra, and at the same time fulfill Qinglong's instructions.

Until Bai Lan's arrival, Shen Mo had no choice, because she was the only one left in the cave.

In other words, regardless of whether Bai Lan agreed to go with Su Yi or not, Shen Mo would pass on this technique to her.

Fortunately, Bai Lan agreed to go with him in the end, so Shen Mo could fulfill his wish on the premise of fulfilling Qinglong's instructions, which can be said to be very satisfactory.

Shen Mo has learned a lot of things, including the art of hope. Neither Su Yi nor Bai Lan died young, so even if this trip is dangerous, he believes that they can return safely.

As for the gains he and the two mentioned, they were all real, so although Shen Mo was taking advantage of them, he didn't feel anything wrong in his heart.

Cultivation is to act against nature. It is absolutely impossible to practice to a high level safely without taking any risks.

Of course, Shen Mo didn't have these words and didn't need to explain them to the two of them.

After practicing the Girl's Sutra, Bai Lan's cultivation level improved rapidly. After a few months, she had entered the fourth level of Qi training.

If this speed is maintained, Bai Lan will inevitably make the same mistake as his father, the insect demon, because the faster his cultivation improves, the harder it will be to deal with the Core Formation Thunder Tribulation.

But Shen Mo was a scholar of heaven and earth, and it was a matter entrusted by his friends. How could he not do his best and make plans for this in advance?
There are two plans. One is that Shen Mo gives Bai Lan a magic weapon - the Tianluo Umbrella. This umbrella was personally refined by Shen Mo using the essence of the Five Elements. It has amazing defensive power and can help Bai Lan survive the thunder catastrophe.

Second, the Maiden Sutra can only be practiced until the elixir is formed. After the elixir is formed, one can switch to other exercises or directly practice the "Fire Yang Sutra" of the witch clan.

Because the Girl's Sutra is originally derived from the Lieyang Sutra, it is natural to practice it naturally, and at the same time, it avoids the danger of quick success.

I would like to add one more thing here, the Lieyang Manual was originally a technique created by Suzaku back then, but due to the passage of time, part of the technique was lost.Although Qinglong collected more than half of them, he still could not truly complete this technique. It was not until Bai Lan took the position of the Great Witch Master of Southern Wilderness that he truly completed and developed this technique.

This is a later story and will not be mentioned here.

Let's say that Su Yi packed up properly, and left Luoxiafang City with his master Shen Mo in the falling rain, and embarked on a journey to the Heizhang Mountains.

The Heizhang Mountains are located at the northernmost tip of the northern border. Of course, this northernmost refers to the geographical range understood by ordinary people.

In fact, there is still a vast area to the north of the towering Kuroshang Mountains, but it is an inaccessible area and is not included in the conventional regional divisions.

The Heizhang Mountains have been a gathering place for monsters and beasts since ancient times, a time that far predates modern regional divisions.

In other words, before the human race could rule this world, the Black Zhang Mountains were already one of the strongholds of monsters.

Later, when the human race flourished, the territory where monster beasts lived continued to shrink, causing more and more monster beasts to gather towards the Black Zhang Mountains.

There are nine levels in the Heizhang Mountains from the outside to the inside. It is said that when it was most prosperous, there was one demon lord in one level, and a demon commander in three levels. It was like a country of demons.

Of course, that had a lot to do with the abundant spiritual energy of heaven and earth at that time. The substantial spiritual energy of heaven and earth enabled twenty-three out of ten beasts to transform into demons, and of course the demon clan would prosper.

Later, with the decline of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, the possibility of the beast clan turning into monsters was cut off from the roots. In addition, the strong predators within the monster clan became more serious, and there was no plan for sustainable development. This made the entire monster clan become more and more depressed. Until now, It is even more impossible to compete with the human race.

Su Yi was accompanying his master Shen Mo. Naturally, he no longer needed to ride on his wind boat, but instead sat on a green leaf magic weapon.

This green-leaf instrument is every detail, no matter the shape, color, or texture...it's all the same as a real leaf, floating like that, all the way along the mountain.

The master and apprentice were drinking tea on the green leaves, chatting, and watching the scenery in the Kurosaki Mountains.

Su Yi saw that the farther he went in, the darker the mountains became.

The clouds are capped, the fog is heavy, the old trees are dark green, and the strange rocks are rugged. From time to time, there are clear springs and gurgling streams accompanied by the chirping of insects.

Flowers are in clusters, grass is luxuriant, young animals are ignorant, birds are flying in the sky, and big demons hold their breath and dare not move, watching the green leaves pass by without leaving a trace.

The two of them walked all the way into the Heizhang Mountains. The further they went, the more little monsters they saw, but they didn't see any big monsters.

Because the big demon has been enlightened for a long time, he knows that those who dare to enter the depths of the Black Mountain Mountains with such arrogance are definitely not easy to get along with. To be honest, they can't hide in time, and they may take the initiative to come to you.

It's not like there weren't some ignorant monsters who came forward and wanted to shoot down this floating green leaf magic weapon.

But the magic weapon that Shen Mo refined was not something that a little demon could get close to. When it was tens or hundreds of feet away, the demon was bound by invisible gravity.

It would be okay if he just lay down on the ground and waited for the Qingye Magical Artifact to go far away, but if he acted violently, he would be crushed into pieces by gravity immediately.

Here we can also see some of the attitude of the human race towards the demon clan. There is no possibility of equality at all. To be honest, the demon clan is not life at all in the eyes of the human race, so there is no psychological burden to kill them.

Of course, this is also related to the hostile relationship between the demon clan and the human race for thousands of years. The same is true for the demon clan. If the demon clan is cannibalizing, how can it ask the human race if they are willing to be eaten...
