Chapter 10: A tall building rises from the ground
The next day.
Han Yi came to Xue Che's general's mansion again on the pretext of discussing the method of taming beasts, wanting to ask him if there were any intelligent monsters nearby.
The spiritual energy in Jiuzhou is thin. It is impossible for ordinary monsters to refine their transverse bones, awaken their spiritual intelligence, and embark on the path of cultivation without opportunity!
According to Han Yi's knowledge in his previous life, the monsters that can awaken their intelligence in the territory of Jiuzhou usually have some rare treasures growing near their nests that can help them quickly increase their cultivation.
His purpose is to find such monsters and the natural treasures around them.
Because of his skill in taming beasts, Xue Che subdued the fierce horse with dragon blood that he kept in the backyard, so he was very enthusiastic towards Han Yi.
After learning about Han Yi's purpose of coming, Xue Che told Han Yi without reservation about several precious places where he had captured exotic beasts.
"My dear nephew!" Xue Che took out a sheepskin map and gestured on it, saying, "This place is where I caught the wild boar with the blood of Dang Kang. I heard from the local people that there seems to be an even more terrifying existence in the forest! If you are interested, I will take you to see it next time we hunt. But you must not go alone!"
"I know that you have already embarked on the path of cultivation, but cultivators in the Qi Refining Realm are not much stronger than ordinary people, so you still have to be careful!"
In his early years, Xue Che once led an army of over a hundred people to surround and kill a wolf demon that had just awakened its intelligence, but he also paid a heavy price.
Therefore, he was still somewhat wary of the existence of those creatures in the deep mountains and old forests!
Upon hearing this, Han Yi nodded and said, "Don't worry, uncle. I know my limits! I'm only asking this out of curiosity!"
If he remembered correctly, in ten days or so, his adoptive father would order Xue Che to lead 5,000 soldiers of Xuan State to respond to the will of King Lugui and join forces with the troops of various princes to attack You Min clan. Xue Che would not be able to return to the territory of Xuan State within three to five years.
Therefore, he didn't mind dealing with Xue Che first, and then going to investigate the places recorded on the map after he left.
"As long as you know the number!"
Xue Che nodded, then changed the subject and discussed the method of taming beasts with Han Yi.
……
Half a month later.
Han Yi was on the city wall, watching Xue Che leave the capital of Xuan State with five thousand soldiers and horses. He immediately found an excuse and prepared to go to the place marked on Xue Che's map to find out what was going on.
He traveled lightly, carrying only a fine iron sword, and rode away on horseback.
It's not that he doesn't want to refine a magic weapon himself, but he really doesn't have the ability. Without the power of his soul, there is actually no difference between a magic weapon and worldly weapons.
Deep in his true spirit, there is an extremely high-quality innate spiritual treasure that is suspected to be the Kunlun Mirror.
But now, let alone driving the innate spiritual treasure, he couldn't even detect it, so there was no waste of effort on this matter!
The place marked on the map is called Qingshen Mountain. It is some distance away from the capital of Xuan State and is rarely visited by people. Only hunters go there to hunt.
However, even experienced old hunters dare not go deep into Qingshen Mountain and can only look for lone prey on the outskirts of Qingshen Mountain.
"This should be it!"
Han Yi looked at the mountain in front of him, muttered to himself, and carefully checked the surrounding terrain.
He discovered that the spiritual energy here was richer than that in the capital of Xuan State. Also, since few people had been here, it was very likely to give birth to some natural treasures.
"call!"
Han Yi exhaled lightly, found a place to settle the horse, then stood up and walked towards the mountain, wanting to get a glimpse of the mystery inside.
Places where natural treasures are born usually have richer spiritual energy and are often guarded by exotic beasts.
In other words, as long as he walks towards places with rich spiritual energy, if nothing unexpected happens, he will have a great chance of finding the place where natural treasures grow.
The "Shangqing Dadong Zhenjing" is a method of practice created by a saint that points directly to the great way to heavenly immortality. Detecting the direction of spiritual energy is only its most basic ability.
And this is also the reason why Han Yi dares to come here alone!
After an unknown amount of time, Han Yi arrived at the foot of a cliff. The trees here were lush and green, and it was obvious that the place was full of spiritual energy.
Han Yi looked up and saw a huge python coiled up in the air, its tongue flickering. It seemed to have gained some intelligence and was looking at him warily.
On the tree where the python was perched, two scarlet fruits were hanging on the branches, emitting a strange fragrance and shining with brilliant light.
"Juguo!"
Han Yi recognized it at a glance and couldn't help laughing: "It's really a case of searching for something without any effort!"
The red fruit is just an acquired spiritual root. It can grow in places with rich spiritual energy. Its greatest function is to increase the magic power of the cultivator.
It just meets Han Yi’s current needs!
However, judging from the age of this red fruit, it should be relatively young, otherwise, the giant python guarding the red fruit would have already fully awakened its intelligence!
Han Yi now has no ability to deal with such an existence!
"Go!" Han Yi immediately activated his magic power, transformed it into an arrow, and shot it towards the giant python through the air.
Boom!
When the python was attacked, it immediately spit out a poisonous mist, then rushed towards Han Yi with red eyes, obviously extremely angry.
"Thunder in the Palm!"
However, Han Yi was waiting for this opportunity. A bolt of lightning quickly gathered in his palm and struck directly at the python that had turned into an arrow.
In an instant, thunder roared and lightning flashed away.
The giant python seemed to sense the life-and-death crisis and wanted to dodge, but it was in mid-air, so how could it possibly avoid Han Yi's long-planned killing move?
Boom!
The black lightning struck the python directly, splitting it in two, revealing its bright red blood and internal organs.
And on the skin and flesh, there were large areas of charred marks!
How can it be a tragic word!
Thunder is the pivot of heaven and earth and represents ultimate destruction. For most monsters, it can be said to be a natural nemesis.
How can a monster whose intelligence has not yet been fully awakened resist the power of heaven and earth?
Even if this thunder came from a cultivator who had just embarked on the path to immortality!
Upon seeing this, Han Yi immediately walked towards the python that was broken into two pieces. He saw that its eyes were wide open, and it actually still retained a last bit of life!
However, that’s all!
Han Yi did not hesitate. He drew out the fine iron sword he brought with him and cut off the python's unwilling head, completely cutting off its last chance of survival!
"I am the meat and others are the butchers!" Han Yi looked at the python that died with its eyes wide open and couldn't help but sigh: "If you are weak, you must be prepared to face death at any time!"
These words were spoken not only to the python, but also to himself!
Forbearance is the key to success, and explosion is the release of potential. When you don’t have enough strength, you have to lie dormant in the soil like an earthworm.
Only in this way, when the opportunity comes, can you show your claws and soar into the sky!
Although this giant python has gained some intelligence, it has not yet refined its transverse bone. Its corpse is of no value except that its blood and energy are more vigorous than that of ordinary wild beasts.
And Han Yi had no intention of collecting his body!
After resolving this hidden danger, he immediately climbed up the cliff and carefully picked up the two red fruits hanging from the tree.
"Unfortunately, the vintage is still a little too young!"
Looking at the two red fruits in his hand, Han Yi did not swallow them immediately, but carefully explored the surroundings, intending to find a safer place first.
Even though these two red fruits were not old enough, once they were swallowed, they were enough to fill up most of his dantian and save him half a year's effort.
In that case, maybe he could try to break through to the Qi Refining and Spirit Transformation realm before next year.
As for the bottleneck...
As someone who has already practiced once, this problem does not exist at all. The only thing that troubles him is perhaps his extremely poor aptitude!
But that would only affect the speed of his practice and would not become an obstacle to his realm breakthrough!
A moment later, Han Yi found a relatively secluded cave not far from the cliff. After making sure that there were no living creatures around that could threaten him, he swallowed the two red fruits without hesitation, and then practiced the "Shangqing Dadong Sutra", intending to convert it into his own magic power as soon as possible.
Han Yi sat cross-legged in the cave. The red fruit entered his stomach and immediately turned into extremely pure magic power, which tempered his body and emerged in his dantian.
If the primordial spirit is the foundation of a practitioner, then the physical body is the ship that carries the primordial spirit across the sea of suffering to the other shore of the Tao.
After cultivating the primordial spirit, even if the physical body is damaged, one can still turn to the path of ghost immortal.
However, it will also consume the potential of practitioners!
Therefore, even the great monks of the three Xuanmen religions attach great importance to the physical body. They know that if they want to reach a higher realm, they must cultivate both the body and the soul.
The practice of the Golden Immortal Realm is to temper and compress one's three flowers of essence, energy and spirit, as well as the five energies in the chest, and to refine oneself as a golden elixir.
The Golden Elixir Dao created by Taiqing Laozi was derived from this.
But, those who have achieved something...
Very few!
Gold is immortal and indestructible.
The practice of Golden Immortal is to continuously evolve the path of enlightenment into something more delicate and refined, ultimately to refine the true spiritual self, to achieve the sublimation of the self-thought, to refine the false into the true and to condense an indelible brand.
As long as they don't get involved in a catastrophe, or don't fight with others, the Golden Immortal can actually achieve immortality, live as long as the heaven and earth, and be as old as the sun and the moon!
In his previous life, Han Yi had only touched the threshold of this realm, but before he could step in, he was killed by Taiyi Zhenren with a single sword!
Although he is not even a true immortal yet, it does not prevent him from starting to lay a solid foundation for practicing in the Golden Immortal realm!
People without thought, he must worry about.
Tall buildings rise from the ground!
After you have cultivated to the Golden Immortal realm, honing your physical body and magic power will only yield half the result with twice the effort, and will affect your own cultivation speed.
Therefore, he must make plans early!
