Chapter 226: Linlang Linlang Fudi (Please subscribe)
In the cave.
Fang Xing stroked the pitch-black jade slip in his hand, which was named "Corpse Refining Secret Canon."
After a thorough reading, he had a general understanding of the demonic path's corpse refining techniques.
"Shi Daoren doesn't seem to be very good at corpse refining. The 'Heavenly Evil Blood Corpse' he chose only has the advantages of simple materials, convenience of control, and relatively quick success... compared to the few truly powerful ones that are said to have Rank 4 power and can rival Nascent Soul cultivators, it's still quite a bit worse..."
Of course, the materials needed for refining those few powerful corpses are extremely difficult to find, and there are many special requirements, which are very difficult to satisfy; they are simply huge pits.
For example, a "Dutian Demonic Corpse" requires the complete corpse of a Rank 4 physical cultivator as raw material.
Then you need to find a kind of extremely rare and precious "Twelve Dutian Divine Evil Qi" and add many special materials before it can be refined.
Another "Ten Absolute Demonic Zombie" is slightly better, but it requires the main material to be a special fate of "Nine Yin Fate," and then find the "Heavenly Yin Earth Vein," which is extremely rare in the cultivation world, to create a Ten Yin Feng Shui tomb and bury it in it for a thousand years to succeed.
It's mainly for looking.
However, Fang Xing still found a few that were barely suitable for him.
For example, a "Jin Gang Corpse" requires a quasi-Rank 4 physical cultivator's corpse and special Buddhist sarira.
"Sigh... it's a pity, back then Wei Shentong's corpse was taken away by the Public Security Bureau... otherwise, the corpse of a Great Jin Gang Realm powerhouse would be a quasi-Rank 4 physical cultivator's corpse here, and with a little refining, it would be a powerful Rank 3 demonic zombie."
As for using a cultivation pod to absorb the other party's blood and manufacture clones, that's a joke.
Powerhouses are all cultivated.
Even if you clone the other party, the cloned one is just an ordinary Wei Shentong!
If you want to cultivate the other party to the Jin Gang Realm, the resources needed could be used by Fang Xing himself.
The female cultivator with the "Long Yue Body" is the same. Even if you clone a special physique, it's useless at the Qi Condensation level.
You must cultivate it to the Jin Dan realm, and its Jin Dan-level Yin Origin power would be of great benefit to Jin Dan cultivators to increase magic power and break through realms, which is too troublesome...
Fang Xing's cultivation clone is not even a Jin Dan himself.
'And... my "Heavenly Mother Prestige Golden Lotus Twin Protector Book" can only have one clone... it's difficult to increase the number.'
'I don't know if it will change after this technique reaches the Grandmaster level...'
'However, before this technique is promoted, I'm afraid I'll have to promote the "Great Sun Tathagata Mantra" first...'
Fang Xing's mentality toward this alien martial art of the evil deity was very complicated.
From the initial defense to experiencing danger several times and being forced to use it, it actually rose to the Master rank.
He painstakingly studied evil deity studies and went to get the Creation Stone Tablet, mainly to study the "Great Sun Tathagata Mantra," but the results could be described as meager...
Anyway, even if it was the original evil deity martial art, after the modification of the attribute panel, it should have reached a level where even its mother wouldn't recognize it...
"Now that the Millennium Stone Milk is enough, I should find a place to cultivate in seclusion."
Fang Xing took out a jade slip and checked the map.
"The demonic path's territory is ultimately a bit dangerous, better to cultivate in the righteous path's territory..."
This is not an easy thing. After all, the righteous-demonic war is currently raging, and both sides have deployed heavy troops on the Gui Xu Mountain line.
Wanting to cross the front line is not that easy.
Of course, for a Jin Dan cultivator, it is much easier.
The better news is that Fang Xing is not a demonic cultivator, there is no demonic energy on him, so he shouldn't arouse the vigilance of the righteous path's formations.
In the war between cultivators, setting up high-rank formations to sense high-rank cultivators of the enemy side is the norm.
'Actually, ancient strategic passes and dangerous places are just places where large armies cannot pass... because the material consumption of large armies is too great, once they cannot break through the pass, there is a risk of the grain road being cut off...'
'If it's just two or three people climbing mountains and crossing ridges, then no dangerous pass is useful... Ancient spies and secret agents all did this.'
The war in the cultivation world is actually about the same.
Those front lines and the areas covered by grand formations must all be places with important spirit mines, spirit medicine gardens, and spirit veins.
At the same time, they prevent the demonic path's large army from breaking in.
Really, low-rank cultivators scattering and advancing is basically impossible to stop, and there's no need to stop them.
'I am only at the Foundation Establishment realm now, I shouldn't even reach the warning line...'
'Sure enough, having a low cultivation base also has its benefits.'
A few days later.
Fang Xing low-key restrained his sword light and arrived near the Gui Xu Mountain battlefield.
Looking from afar, sure enough, the evil energy was rushing into the sky, and a strange divine mountain in the middle was like a deep sea eye, absorbing the surrounding airflow to gather.
'Gui Xu Mountain itself is a strange divine mountain, forming a formation by itself... plus the grand formation set up by the righteous path, it has become a dangerous place that blocks the demonic path's large army...'
He just took a look and avoided it from afar.
As for the righteous-demonic patrol teams he encountered?
If he wanted to make a move, it could only be considered the other party's bad luck.
Qingzhou.
This place is in the territory of the Profound Heaven Sect, considered the rear of the battlefield, very stable.
Fang Xing was full of righteousness, looking like an ordinary late-stage Foundation Establishment cultivator.
This cultivation base is neither high nor low in the cultivation world, so he won't encounter situations where people look down on him, nor will he attract the attention of high-rank cultivators.
What's more wonderful is that this is his real cultivation base, he doesn't even need to change his disguise, and can withstand all inspections.
A marketplace.
Fang Xing lowered his sword light and went straight to a bookstore.
He didn't know much about the Dajing cultivation world, and some of the spoils might have been misidentified, so he needed to update his information.
At the same time, he also needed to inquire about some things.
The bookstore owner was a Confucian scholar wearing a green shirt. Seeing Fang Xing come in, he hurriedly stuffed the wine bottle in his hand into the counter: "Greetings, Senior, what kind of books are you looking for?"
"Spirit item introduction type..."
Fang Xing waved his hand and laid out a row of low-grade spirit stones: "And... all kinds of strange stories are also needed."
He thought of the white jade token he obtained before.
Although he didn't know its effect, his Rank 3 sword gang couldn't leave a trace on it, clearly the quality was extremely high, and it wouldn't be as simple as an identity token.
"Yes, please wait a moment, Senior."
The Confucian scholar hurriedly wiped the wine stains from the corner of his mouth, rummaged through the bookshelf, and sent several books and jade slips to Fang Xing: "For books introducing spirit items, the junior recommends "Profound Heaven Record," which is specially issued by the Profound Heaven Sect to its disciples to broaden their horizons..."
"As for strange stories, "Travels to the East" and "Notes of the Azure Jade Loose Cultivator" are both good..."
"Hmm, buy them all." Fang Xing was wealthy and imposing.
In fact, this was already the seventh marketplace he had passed.
Along the way, he would basically buy a few books, and combined, he had a general understanding of the characteristic spirit items of the Dajing cultivation world.
At least, he could identify ninety-nine percent of the things in the three storage bags.
"Thank you, Senior, the junior will pack them for you."
The Confucian scholar had a look of joy.
It seemed to be inadvertently that Fang Xing asked another sentence: "Besides the immortal cities, are there any cave dwellings with high-rank spirit veins for sale nearby?"
"If Senior doesn't mind, you can go to Three Mangshan."
The Confucian scholar answered without thinking: "There is a Rank 3 spirit vein there, and the 'Yun Family' currently manages the business of renting out cave dwellings."
"Renting cave dwellings, very good, I know."
Fang Xing walked out of the marketplace and turned into a sword light to leave.
Ten thousand miles of clouds.
He lay in a cloud layer, silently flipping through the books he had just bought.
Because of his divine sense, Fang Xing read very fast, and "reading ten lines at a glance" was hard to describe.
"So this box is 'Dazzling Crystal Stone,' mainly used for refining illusion formations... only produced in Dajing's 'Mirror Heaven Valley'..."
Fang Xing took out a jade box, looked at the crystal stones emitting five colors in it, and nodded.
Immediately, he patted his storage bag, and a white jade token appeared in his palm again.
Both of these were treasures obtained from the storage bag of the female cultivator surnamed Nie, and now he had figured out the effect of one of them.
He opened "Travels to the East" again and flipped the pages rapidly.
Suddenly, the page stopped, landing on a token pattern.
"Linlang Linlang Fudi... one of Dajing's most important secret realms, opens every five hundred years, with opportunities for Jin Dan and Nascent Soul... cultivators entering cannot exceed the Jin Dan stage, enter with the 'Linlang Order,' one token can carry up to five people... The last opening was more than four hundred years ago..."
"Linlang Order?" Fang Xing looked at the white jade token in his hand: "Finally figured it out, this is a dungeon ticket... It's just, let me go to the secret realm? Hehe... why not go rob, no, eliminate demons and defend the way, the demonic path cultivators coming out of the secret realm?"
"After all, both righteous and demonic sides can enter this Linlang Secret Realm..."
Fang Xing casually threw the Linlang Order into the storage bag to eat dust.
The most important thing now is to cultivate to Foundation Establishment perfection, and then condense the Sword Dan.
Whatever blessed land, opportunity... all roll to the side.
A map appeared in his hand, marking out the spirit veins all over Qingzhou.
"The best spirit vein is naturally the Profound Heaven Sect mountain gate, with a Rank 4 spirit vein... forget about this one. The rest are major immortal cities, all built on Rank 3 spirit veins. Now it's wartime... the major immortal cities are under martial law, and they are very vigilant against outside cultivators."
"Besides this, it's the spirit veins in various places... Three Mangshan's 'Yun Family' is not bad, it can be used as a backup."
A force that has fallen to the point of renting out its own spirit veins clearly cannot pose much of a threat to him.
Furthermore, Three Mangshan's spirit vein grade is not low, with a Rank 3 mid-grade level.
"This Yun Family ancestor was once a disciple of the Profound Heaven Sect's ancestor's ancestor's Nascent Soul Zhenjun. Later, he failed to condense a Nascent Soul, came out to occupy the Three Mangshan spirit land, and established a Jin Dan family—the Yun Family, which was once quite famous in the Dajing cultivation world."
"After the Yun Family ancestor died, relying on the few means left behind and the relationship with the Profound Heaven Sect, they produced several generations of Jin Dan cultivators, and the Yun Family's prosperity lasted for more than a thousand years, outliving two generations of Nascent Soul Zhenjuns..."
"But by this generation, it's a bit difficult. The previous Supreme Elder failed to form a Jin Dan, and just barely condensed a False Jin Dan... Even to buy Jin Dan spirit items, he mortgaged most of the family's industries, and in the end, he lost everything. To pay off debts and for the family to survive, he had to renovate Three Mangshan, separate the two main peaks, build cave dwellings, and rent them to loose cultivators... the reputation gradually declined."
"The current Yun Family Supreme Elder, knowing that forming a Jin Dan is hopeless, didn't even try to form a Jin Dan, and directly refined a Rank 3 demonic beast dan, becoming a False Jin Dan cultivator."
"If the next generation is still like this, the Yun Family will be expelled from the 'Jin Dan Family' gate wall and become a False Jin Dan family..."
"Even, the current False Jin Dan realm Supreme Elder has been conscripted, taking a group of family elites to the Gui Xu Mountain battlefield?"
Fang Xing nodded, this place fits his requirements very well.
The spirit vein is above Rank 3, but the surrounding cultivators are at the Foundation Establishment level.
No matter how brilliant the celestial phenomena are, they won't disturb his great plan of forming a Jin Dan! ===== CHAPTER 227 =====
