Mortal: Settled in Mo Mansion at the beginning

Chapter 44 Eight Years Later

With the support of the Nascent Soul Ancestor, Hu Ming's situation improved a lot.

In the past, because Master Jiejie was a bit unprotected, he would occasionally be sent to participate in dangerous missions, but this time it is almost gone.

At the same time, some guys who coveted and had ill intentions towards Hu Ming because of their own backgrounds also restrained themselves a lot.

In addition, Hu Ming went to socialize with some fellow foundation builders, and even some contacts with alchemy masters and uncles, which became much smoother at once.

It should be said that he has taken some benefits of the version change.

The Six Demonic Sects are much stronger than the Seven Sects of the Yue Kingdom. There are many Yuanying monks here and there are also many Alchemy monks here.

Just like the Ghost Spirit Sect, it is able to send Danjie monks to serve as guards for the young master of the sect. There are six or seven Nascent Soul monks in the sect, and one sect is worth five or six sects in the Yue Kingdom.

The strength of the Ghost Spirit Sect is not very outstanding among the six demon sects. The strength of the Yuling Sect is still higher than that of the Ghost Spirit Sect, and the Hehuan Sect has a sect with great monks from the Yuan Dynasty.

Here, Yuanying Ancestor and Jie Dan Zhenren appear to be slightly less valuable than the seven sects of Yue Kingdom.

It also coincided with the chaotic war between the Righteous Alliance and the Demonic Alliance, as well as the Tiandao Sect composed of more than a dozen small and medium-sized countries, and a large number of alchemy-forming and even Nascent Soul monks were forced to become active.

In such an environment, Hu Ming, who originally wanted to get in touch with Dan Jie and participate in Dan Jie level events, found that the Dan Jie masters were much kinder.

The special ones are the several pill-forming disciples under the command of Patriarch Xantong.

After Hu Ming shamelessly followed Han Yunzhi to greet Ancestor Xantong several times, he became quite friendly.

Han Yunzhi is the ancestor's only blood descendant at the moment, and now he seems to be quite happy with the ancestor. Naturally, Hu Ming, a Taoist companion, has also attracted a lot of attention.

Not to mention that Han Yunzhi, who was highly valued by the ancestor, was acting as if he was following Hu Ming's husband and listening to Hu Ming.

Of course, if that's all it is, the most it can do is give Hu Ming a little more care.

Later, Hu Ming showed his ability to deal with various battlefield seizures and collect various elixirs, magic weapons and other information very well, which further allowed him to win the respect of several alchemy uncles. Then, these junior masters and uncles became a backer of Hu Ming, as well as human connections and sales channels.

This made it a lot easier for him to interact with other demonic foundations and even contact with other demonic cores.

Of course, the demonic world is in turmoil, and even if Hu Ming has a Nascent Soul backer who can gain connections, it still can't stop some people's evil thoughts.

Fortunately, Hu Ming himself stood out from the various conspiracies and calculations in the world.

Compared with immortal cultivators who spend most of their time practicing.

Mortals have more time and attention to spend on various intrigues, and they use all possible means to fight in rivers and lakes.

Hu Ming escaped from the mundane world and experienced all kinds of things in the world of immortality. In addition, he possesses many secret techniques and powerful magical weapons. He also has a background and can protect himself for a while.

And it is precisely because of the dangerous situation in the devil's way that Hu Ming can penetrate all kinds of sinister people's hearts, show his sincerity to others, and can filter out people who are also sincere to him. Naturally, he becomes more and more precious in it. It's rare, and people are getting more and more prosperous.

Even if you are a villain, sometimes you want someone you can trust to do something for you, and Hu Ming plays such a role.

Relying on the panel, he could roughly tell which people really cared about him and which people had ill intentions toward him. This was the most critical trump card for Hu Ming to be sincere in treating others.

Although the later background, experience, mana, and supernatural powers are also quite important, they still have to be put in the back row.

If ordinary people learn from Hu Ming, they are afraid that they will be eaten up by those demons. Being sincere to others requires paying a price and one's own body needs to be strong enough.

Coincidentally, Hu Ming was able to use some means to avoid some of the costs, and at the same time, his body was relatively strong. This gave Hu Ming a foundation for being able to thrive in this turbulent and dangerous demonic environment.

And in this constant friendship and contact with many pill formations, Hu Ming is also constantly growing.

A large number of various skills, magical powers, and insights into secret techniques were constantly brought to him.

In addition, weapon refining, talisman making, elixir refining, and even formations, various cultivation skills are also constantly growing in this process.

And this made him more proficient in contact with various monks.

Most demonic monks seek profit, and Hu Ming is naturally very popular because he can provide benefits.

And for Hu Ming, the more popular he is, the more benefits he can reap.

In a snowballing state, eight years passed quietly, and Hu Ming successfully 'breakthrough' to the late stage of foundation building.

Even for a magic skill that is known for its fast improvement in cultivation, it is still a bit exaggerated to break through from the middle stage of foundation building to the late stage of foundation building in about ten years.

Moreover, the Wan Miao Heart Sutra that Hu Ming practiced was not a magic skill known for its speed of improvement.

Of course, this is just one of his cultivation skills.

In fact, he was able to break through the pill formation eight years ago, and he has already prepared the elixir to break through the pill formation.

But as he continued to bring Han Yunzhi to greet him with his shamelessness, he gradually increased the trust of Ancestor Xantong to forty-five, and gained an understanding that he had until the late stage of pill formation, and there were others. With some alchemy-forming masters, some alchemy-forming insights from his uncles, and a large number of fellow foundation-builders’ various cultivation insights, he gradually came up with ideas.

He wanted to create a technique that would allow him to accumulate mana far beyond the same level and be compatible with most techniques.

If he only purely collects his insights and skills, then he will always be inferior to the most powerful one among the friends he has made.

People in high positions will never trust others without reservation, and Hu Ming understands this very well.

For this reason, Hu Ming relies on this method of downloading other people's insights and skills to practice, so he will never be able to surpass the most powerful person among his friends.

Unless he can stack up a large number of martial arts, insights, and skills like he did in the mortal arena before, allowing him to learn from the strengths of others and surpass everyone.

On top of the Immortal Path, this is the stage of officially starting to practice the foundation of possessing various magical powers and secret techniques.

Foundation building, foundation building, this is a stage of building the foundation of the road.

On top of this, Han Li relied on the Qingyuan Sword Technique and the Third Transformation Heavy Yuan Technique to lay an extremely solid foundation.

With the blessing of the Qingyuan Sword Art and the Three-turn Heavy Yuan Gong, Han Li had much more pure and powerful mana than those at the same level.

With this foundation of magic power, Han Li was able to activate the Great Geng Sword Formation in the future, and he was able to win in the fight with many powerful magic weapons and magical powers.

His strong magic power and divine will will be the foundation of Han Li's strength in the future.

But in the eyes of Hu Ming, who has gained too much spiritual insights, it is still not enough.

He can download insights and skills, but the ability to download skills has been left aside by him all year round.

The problem of conflicting mana between different types of skills has always stuck with him.

He has actually been thinking about a way to solve this problem.

But now, with enough cultivation insights and some experience from the Nascent Soul's perspective, he gradually grasped some feelings about the great path of cultivation, the source of all dharma.

This feeling of certainty was something he accumulated bit by bit. To put it in perspective, it was the feeling he had when he looked at the Qingwen Taoist's Qingmu Zhenshi in Yuehuang Palace and thought of the Da Geng Sword Formation. Dharma, the contemplation of supernatural powers.

Of course, if you want to say it, it is actually just an inconspicuous reason. For this reason, during these years of his practice, he has continuously gained various insights, and during the battles with the monks of the Tiandao Society and the Righteous Dao Alliance, unknown things have happened. How many.

And it was these bits and pieces of thoughts and insights that converged into a vague sense of peeking into the original principles of the great path of cultivation in his heart.

Qingwen Taoist's Qingmu True Shield is both a magic weapon and a formation disk, and it is consistent with the martial arts at the same time. The same is true for the Great Geng Sword Formation. At the same time, the Wanmiao Heart Sutra is also quite consistent with the way of the illusory formation... All of these, if If you trace back to the source and extend, you can find that the exercises, formations, talismans, and magical weapons all seem to have something in common.

All kinds of existence, grasp their true meaning, trace them back to the source, and the vague outline of the original principle will be looming.

In addition, he was doing well in the Yuling Sect at the moment and did not want to act too evil, so he had to go into exile in the end.

It is not uncommon for people in Tiannan to form pills in their forties, but those are due to Tianling roots, or a special physique comparable to Tianling roots, coupled with a large amount of resources and powerful opportunities. Even so, he can still be called a generation of geniuses in cultivating immortals.

Obviously, Hu Ming's current situation cannot support such a reputation as a monster and genius.

For this reason, he finally chose to settle down.

Now that eight years have settled, he gradually feels like he has touched something.

He has already seen a lot of various things in the foundation building stage, and it just so happens that the magic skill itself is better at mixing and blending.

Now he already has an outline in his mind of the cultivation method that will create his own Tao foundation.

It's just that it's still a little short of complete perfection. To be honest, he can't really grasp how many of them there are.

But fortunately, the life span of two hundred years or more is expected during the foundation building period, and at the peak of the foundation building period, there is at least two hundred and fifty years of life.

Han Li spent nearly a hundred years in order to complete this foundation-building process.

This is an important stage and one worthy of his efforts.

Hu Ming estimated that in as little as ten years or as long as forty or fifty years, he would be able to perfect a technique that could help him reach the source of all dharma and help him blend all dharma.

Then it was time for him to break through the core formation.

Calculating the time, it is almost possible for him to show his cultivation level in the Yuling Sect in a natural state.

With a foundation and longevity of more than two hundred years, a super monster can form an elixir at the age of forty or fifty. After forming the elixir, he may even look like he is in his early twenties, while ordinary geniuses can form an elixir at a hundred years old and look like middle-aged people. Or she may have the appearance of a beautiful woman, and those in the middle are those with better luck, geniuses who formed elixirs before they were a hundred years old.

Yuan Yao, who originally had the same qualifications but destroyed the young master of Qingyang Sect, relied on the young master's legacy to advance from the stage of Qi training to the formation of pills in a hundred years.

A rough calculation shows that if the normal resources are good and the talent is good, the pill will be formed within a hundred years.

Only in this way can one maintain a relatively young appearance after forming a pill.

As for those who look like old men, most of them are one hundred, sixty or seventy years old, or even almost two hundred years old. They are mediocre talents who can barely form elixirs.

Of course, this mediocre talent is only relative.

Those who can form elixirs are not mediocre at all, but compared to those geniuses, they are naturally relatively mediocre.

But now Hu Ming is in his forties, and after decades of settling down, he will be able to form an elixir.

Of course, that happened much later. Before that, eight years had passed, and it was the ten-year period he had agreed with Han Li.

On this day, a good tea party ended, and the alchemy monks were invited to attend. Hu Ming took the opportunity to announce that he would go into seclusion and practice a secret method.

Nowadays, in the midst of a chaotic war, most people have missions, but Hu Ming can secretly find some free time by relying on the face of Yuanying Ancestor.

Although it was said to be a retreat to the outside world, in fact, he quietly slipped out and went to the ancient teleportation array under the spirit stone mine.

As the battle line progressed, gradually only a few foundation-building monks were left stationed in the spirit stone mine.

In the illusory formation that Hu Ming and others left behind back then, even if they were alchemy cultivators, if they didn't know the situation beforehand and examined it carefully, they wouldn't be able to detect anything amiss.

Now that the few monks stationed in the mine are not even mining, it is naturally rare to find anything strange.

At this moment, Hu Ming came over and used the earth escape technique to sneak in. He looked around carefully and saw that the secret passage left before was covered with dust. The underground cave sealed by the rock had not changed at all. , the formation also looked untouched, and I breathed a sigh of relief.

After careful inspection, the various arrangements and the covering formation that were laid out back then were found to be ok. Then, he began to adjust and transform the formation.

Although the current formation can be used, it is still a bit rough.

Over the years, Hu Ming has spent a lot of resources to regulate Xin Ruyin's body from time to time, and his cultivation has rapidly reached the late stage of foundation building. He shows that he has great hope for forming a pill and has a good reputation. Ruyin's trust in him gradually increased.

For this reason, Hu Ming also successfully gained a lot of formation insights from him.

It's a pity that the trust level cannot be raised to 80 or above, and the formation talent that makes him even more coveted is still unable to be obtained.

But this is enough for him.

Xin Ruyin's trust level in him now stands at seventy-five.

With such a level of trust, he can basically gather all his insights into practice and formations.

Over the years, he spent a lot of resources and used various secret methods to help him regulate his body so that he could live longer, and he also found a large number of formation books for him.

It created an extremely excellent environment for studying formations.

Then he would go over there from time to time, communicate with him, and discuss some formations and practices, as well as various things to deal with hidden dangers in his body.

Allow yourself to extract enough benefits from it to the greatest extent possible.

Originally, if it was just the Yin Stone conditioning method back then, now Xin Ruyin is afraid that even if she is not dead, she is already in a worrying state.

But because of Han Yunzhi, he got acquainted with a Yuan Ying Ancestor's background, and got to know a lot of alchemy masters and uncles, which made Hu Ming think of new ways to treat him.

Although his current state is not very good, he can still continue to study the formation and continue to provide Hu Ming with new formation insights.

In addition, Hu Ming could also gain some experience and insights from other monks who knew the formation.

Although most of these experiences and insights cannot be compared with the formation genius Xin Ruyin, they can also provide him with some new perspectives and insights.

And he has a lot of formation insights from Xin Ruyin, which allows him to have a high-level perspective on these experiences and insights, and he can draw nourishment from them.

In this state, Hu Ming is now on top of the formation, and it is not an exaggeration to call him a master.

For this reason, Hu Ming did not bring Xin Ruyin with him when he came out this time.

Instead, he took matters into his own hands and upgraded the concealing array in the underground teleportation array cave of the Lingshi Mine. By the way, he also made a little modification to the teleportation array.

A transformation that allows him to rely on an induction circle over there and force teleport directly there more conveniently.

It is considered to be a transformation in two directions. The first direction is to upgrade the concealment formation. However, because this concealment formation was originally laid down with Xin Ruyin, now even eight years later, he cannot Find a huge upgrade space that can be called a breakthrough.

After the upgrade, the concealing formation was still unable to completely cover up the movement of the formation, but it was able to move the vision farther away.

The overall effect can only be said to be optimized, but it cannot be said to be a breakthrough at all.

However, the other direction was created by Hu Mingxin, and the performance looks to be stronger.

After the new magic circle is set up, it can be used to forcibly teleport him to the vicinity of the coordinate point based on a previous teleportation record and an induction formation over there.

Even if the induction formation there is destroyed, as long as there is still the last record here, he can still teleport.

Everything you walk through will definitely leave traces, and as long as you can capture these traces, you will have the opportunity to complete the reappearance.

Of course, it is not difficult for those who have mastered the corresponding insights to achieve this, but for those who have not mastered the corresponding insights, it seems a bit too mysterious.

Hu Ming bluntly said that in the entire Tiannan Continent, there are only about seven or eight people who can do this.

And most of these seven or eight are Nascent Soul old monsters who have studied formations, and he is probably the only one in the foundation building stage.

After all, Xin Ruyin is just practicing Qi,
