Asking About Longevity Chapter 523

Chapter 523 Lishan City

 Fourteen years old, ninth level of Qi refining, thirteen lines of spiritual awareness.

 From the eighth level of Qi refining to the ninth level of Qi refining, the realm has been broken through, and the spiritual consciousness has also increased.

But this kind of growth, after all, is only the growth of the Qi Refining Realm, and it seems a bit useless in front of the foundation-building consciousness.

　It is tasteless to eat and a pity to throw away.

　　Master said it was great, so it should be okay.

Obviously he comes from a noble family, but at such an old age, he is still only at the ninth level of Qi refining. Later, in order to fight against the big demon, just in case, he broke through to the foundation building.

 Otherwise, it's 50/50 at most.

“At that time, the Five Elements Sect was, if not the most top-notch sect, at least one of the few first-rate formation sects in the entire cultivation world.”

 “The cultivation world respects the formation method.”

 After that, he ordered some dried fruits, food and tea, and delivered them to Mr. Zhuang's room.

 When the calamity thunder dissipated, there were incredible formations in the clouds.

Mo Hua took a breath and felt that the atmosphere around him was different. The earth was wider and the sky was higher.

 “This…you don't have to press it…”

Mr. Zhuang's expression became subtle.

 Bai Zisheng and Bai Zixi sat respectfully, listening to what Mr. Zhuang said.

While eating, Mo Hua and his senior brothers and sisters chatted about what they had seen in the city.

When he was killing Feng Xi, he saw with his own eyes that the blood-red tribulation thunder came, terrifying and inexplicable, hovering above his head, and then gradually dissipated.

Most of the casual cultivators are traders.

Mo Hua recalled it again.

“That's right,” Mr. Zhuang nodded. “The Five Elements Sect is an orthodox sect. It is a sect based on formation methods. Most of the monks in the sect are formation masters.”

What are the different monks, the customs with very different behaviors, and there are some dazzling spiritual tools, elixir, and arranges in Fangshi.

 “That was thousands of years ago…”

"Disciples of the Five Elements Sect, it is too easy to obtain spiritual stones, and they are greedy for pleasure, so they no longer bother to study the formations."

"The casual cultivators in Lishan City also rely on the blessings of their ancestors and have only a few eaves and tiles to live on, so they can barely survive. Otherwise, they will not be able to survive."

Mo Hua felt a little confused and asked Mr. Zhuang.

 With such a large sect and so many formation masters, even if some people seek profit, there will always be someone who can understand.

“What was the Five Elements Sect like before it fell into decline?”

 It seems that this bottleneck is another big obstacle.

Mo Hua puts the food on the table.

 The expression on the little face is sometimes happy, sometimes expectant, sometimes worried, sometimes frowning in thought...

Mr. Zhuang said with some emotion: "Although this place is remote, the cave in this city is really not something that ordinary monks can afford."

I don't know where I went.

Mo Hua couldn't help but sigh.

“Your spiritual roots are a bit weak, your physique is a bit weak, and your inheritance is not as good as theirs, so you don't have to worry about it so much. It doesn't really matter whether you polish it or not…”

Mr. Zhuang thought for a moment and then said, "If it really doesn't work, it's okay to build the foundation at the top of the Thirteen Patterns."

Mo Hua murmured in his heart.

However, I also discovered a strange place in the ink painting.

 The expressions in the ink paintings are complicated.

 Of course, it is possible that the boundary between the three states is indeed larger.

Mr. Zhuang sighed: "It didn't work anymore..."

 Unless the formation is used to disintegrate...

"The younger disciples of the Five Elements Sect began to think that the residences, halls and pavilions that were originally used for the formation masters to study and discuss the Tao should be demolished and built into a prosperous cave. They would be sold and rented at high prices to obtain huge amounts of spiritual stones."

Rather than the spiritual power that can be fed by spiritual stones.

 It's still the 50-50 situation of “invincible”.

 “It's remote from the mountain city, without any disturbance.”

 The ink painting is both longing and regret, and I can't help but ask:

Mr. Zhuang tried to be as reserved as possible, but still felt a little worried:

Mo Hua asked: "Master, you said that after the Five Elements Sect fell into decline, our ancestors moved the mountain gate to this Lishan City..."

Mo Hua is a little regretful and a little worried:

“The family's expectations for them are not just to build a foundation, but to lay a solid foundation and break through to higher levels of cultivation.”

Mo Hua opened his mouth wide.

 “Once you come and go, the caves here are very expensive.”

But there was one more thing that concerned him.

 When scraping bones to heal wounds, you must start with yourself first.

Mo Hua said doubtfully: "I see the street is quite busy."

“As long as your spiritual consciousness is strong, if you can make do with other things, just make do with it...”

 out out out out to touch the immortal pattern and be directly obliterated? At that time, no matter how powerful the master is, he probably won't be able to save himself...

Many of the spiritual weapons and elixirs placed on the market are second-grade. Mo Hua even saw a second-grade formation book.

  It's not even much better than the previous peak of the Thirteen Lines.

"This spiritual stone was too easy to come by and too rich, so the disciples in the sect became lazy and had a desire to enjoy themselves. They no longer studied the formations diligently and no longer pursued the way of heaven."

 The spiritual consciousness of ink painting is still at the peak of the Thirteen Patterns.

Mo Hua glanced at Bai Zisheng and Bai Zixi, "Just like my little senior brother and little senior sister..."

“The level of the Five Elements Sect's formations has dropped again and again, and some formations have also been lost…”

“Master, hasn't the Five Elements Sect thought about changing it?”

Of course, he probably had a conflict with the clan and was a bit rebellious, so he deliberately messed it up, otherwise he wouldn't have built the foundation so late.

“Oh.” Mo Hua scratched his head.

“You are now at the ninth level of Qi refining and have the peak consciousness of thirteen lines. You are already very... powerful..."

Mr. Zhuang shook his head, "A monk has a long lifespan, so we can't just look at it for a short time, but have to look at it in the longer term."

 It is not even enough for the spiritual consciousness to break through the bottleneck and reach the fourteenth pattern of foundation building.

“The family's heritage is enough to support their practice.”

"In the future, I will have enough spiritual power to perform extremely powerful Taoist teachings, and I will also have enough foundation to seek a higher realm..."

There are no casual cultivators like spiritual farmers, mining cultivators, demon hunters, craftsmen, etc. who work hard and earn spiritual stones.

“Even if there is someone who has the ability to change, he may not want to change, because most of the people who have the ability to change are also the ones who benefit the most from it..."

 Even the ink paintings are somewhat unlikely...

 It is far beyond the current state of ink painting that can be understood.

 “This move is indeed very effective.”

 “Dongfu is too expensive, and prices are rising.”

 At the ninth level of Qi refining, the spiritual power is a little deeper.

 No matter how good someone else's is, it is still someone else's.

  Anyway, the spiritual root is this spiritual root, and the situation is just like this. It cannot be changed, so just make do with it, as long as you can build the foundation...

“Is their inheritance so powerful?” Mo Hua asked in surprise.

There were a lot of little people painted in ink, so I didn't bother with him.

“Whether it is a formation master or a formation sect, we must ultimately take the formation as the foundation, and do not be short-sighted in pursuit of profit, otherwise the prosperity will end and the place will be in depression.”

"Although some formation masters who are talented but have ordinary backgrounds cannot afford to live in such an expensive cave, they can only find other places."

Mr. Zhuang glanced at the ink painting and said, "It doesn't matter to you..."

“The prosperity of pavilions and pavilions is just an appearance. Prosperity without people is ultimately just the shadow of the moon in the water and the epiphyllum in the mirror.”

 Before going to the Five Elements Sect, Mo Hua and his party found an inn to take a rest.

Mr. Zhuang couldn't help but be slightly startled when he saw the expression in the ink painting. Then he nodded gently and sighed in his heart:

 “They have neither the courage nor the ability.”

Mr. Zhuang said: "Hundreds of years ago, the Five Elements Sect was in decline. At that time, the ancestors of the Five Elements Sect, in order to revive the sect, moved the sect to this remote Lishan City."

“Your senior brothers and sisters, their spiritual roots are from heaven… they are of the highest grade, the exercises they practice are all the top-grade exercises of Man Zhoutian, and the Taoist methods they learn are also the top secrets of the family sect...

“As time goes on, there are fewer and fewer monks in Lishan City...”

 Ink painting requires a calm mind.

Mo Hua couldn't help but think about it.

"The ancestors of the Five Elements Sect want the disciples within the sect to be focused on studying formations without any distractions, and at the same time attract other formation masters to learn from each other and exchange formations, so that Lishan City can become a place for formation masters to study and become a true formation master. City of learning.”

He also said something like, "What kind of book should children read? This book is not for you to read. Don't exhaust your spiritual consciousness..."

“I was here hundreds of years ago, and there were many more monks than there are now.”

 Just cultivate your own way.

You can't see the end of an ink painting at a glance.

He still dare not look at the ink painting. He is afraid that if he takes one look, his consciousness will be drained, the sea of ​​consciousness will be cracked, and there will be endless troubles.

"The entire sect is used to just lying around and earning spiritual stones. From top to bottom, the interests are deeply rooted. Anyone who wants to make a move will be the enemy of the entire sect."

But the little senior brother and the little senior sister are different.

 Senior brothers and sisters are so talented that they have been suppressing their abilities for so long.

 “Yes, Master!”

  194.50.122.76

“Wouldn't that be too powerful?”

He never expected that the ancestors of the Five Elements Clan could be so rich!

“They don't have to do anything, just lie down and the spiritual stones will come into their account.”

“The cave was too expensive for ordinary monks to live in, so they gradually left.”

Over time, although his realm has not improved, his cultivation has become extremely solid.

“Keep practicing and break through if you can. Although the spiritual power is a little less and the blood is a little weak, at least the spiritual consciousness is strong enough..."

 “One handsome man covers all ugliness…”

 Now, the spiritual power of the ninth level of Qi Refining is flowing in my body!

One of them was recorded on the Taoist tablet by him.

 The entire cultivation world, a first-class formation sect.

 I don't know for a moment whether Master is praising him or hurting him...

 You can't kill them, they can't catch them, they can't even see you...

 In the entire Lishan City, it seems that most of them are monks who open business houses, open shops, and set up stalls to sell various monastic items.

Mo Hua sighed in his heart.

Zhang Lan is also in the realm of Qi refining and has polished his foundation for a long time.

 Ink painting in the carriage sighed.

“There are very few monks nowadays…”

Even comparable to foundation building...

Mr. Zhuang sighed:

 “It's hard to get back...”

The destination of this trip is the largest and only third-grade sect in the entire Lishan City:

 Five Elements Sect.

At the same time, the power of my own spells has also become stronger.

 Although you can't see it now, there is a great formation in the sky.

Mo Hua looked at Mr. Zhuang with some confusion.

If the foundation building is like this, what about the golden elixir?

Mo Hua poked his head out and glanced at the sky.

"The good intentions of their ancestors are not as practical as the spiritual stones after all..."

Moreover, this is the immortal pattern on the Tribulation Thunder, which contains the law of obliteration.

Ink Hua looked up at the sky again.

Mo Hua looked calmly and nodded slightly.

"The Five Elements Sect is proficient in formations and is located here. Many monks, families, and sects will come here to seek formations. Some monks will even settle here specifically."

"Don't be anxious," Mr. Zhuang nodded slightly, "As your cultivation becomes deeper and reaches the ninth level of perfection, you can try to build the foundation. As for spiritual consciousness, there is no need to force it, just let it happen..."

 At the third-level state boundary, the upper limit of the cultivation level that a monk can use is the Golden Core realm!

 “The boundary between the three states…”

Mr. Zhuang paused for a moment and looked at the ink painting with complex eyes:

Mo Hua looked down at his little hands again.

“The hard work of their ancestors was all in vain.”

“Some monastic forces, in order to make good friends with the Five Elements Sect, will also send an elder to station here and give gifts during festivals.”

Bai Zisheng's eyes were bright, and he said respectfully and happily:

“Cultivation focuses on killing, which can only strengthen one's own strength, but formations can affect thousands of monks.”

 How to make it and what flavor it should be made from, the ink painting also gave instructions.

 Master, brothers, sisters, and puppet elders all have their favorite food.

“The entire formation atmosphere in Lishan City has faded away.”

Mr. Zhuang shook his head, "The Five Elements Sect is adding fuel to the flames..."

 Of course, except for those like little senior brother and little senior sister.

 “The Five Elements Sect?”

Most of the monks in the city focus on refining qi and building foundations. They have golden elixirs, but not many.

Mr. Zhuang looked interesting and smiled slightly:

 “Think about building a foundation again?”

 Laws are unreasonable.

 The three of them get along day and night.

Lishan City is a third-grade fairy city with beautiful scenery, spectacular city walls, and magnificent caves in the city.

Then he asked: "Then these have nothing to do with the Five Elements Sect. Others buy the cave at a high price, and they have nothing to do with it..."

 I am almost building a foundation, so I need to save my spiritual stones...

Even if you only rely on the "divine consciousness compression" and "fast but unbreakable" fireball technique, under the foundation building, the general ninth level of Qi refining will not be your opponent.

Mr. Zhuang looked solemn and sighed:

How many grades does that have to be...

 It is already unimaginable that spiritual consciousness can cross a large realm.

This is the first time that I have come to a state border of level 2 or above.

His current cultivation level is not enough, and indeed he cannot learn the second-grade formation, so it is in vain.

“The Five Elements Sect gradually grew stronger, and the atmosphere of formation learning became stronger. Lishan City prospered for a while and became a resort among formation masters.”

 It has nothing to do with yourself.

Mo Hua sees them practicing every day. Every time they practice, their spiritual power becomes more concentrated, their cultivation becomes deeper, and their breath becomes stronger.

“This is especially true for some powerful monastic families with many monks.”

He heard Zhang Lan say that the children of aristocratic families must lay a good foundation in order to build a foundation. Only in this way can their cultivation be solid enough and they can go further in the future.

 It's better to keep it for now. Later, when your realm is higher and your spiritual consciousness is stronger, you can carefully comprehend it.

 Then, he thought of another question:

“Master, don't I need to polish my realm?”

“It's just that the Five Elements Sect seems to have gained a lot from this move, but this benefit was obtained at the expense of the hardships of their ancestors and their future prospects.”

 What kind of scene would that be like in a place where formation masters gather to study?

 They can all fight against Zhuji.

Similar to the threshold from Qi refining to foundation building, the thirteenth to fourteenth lines are the threshold from the early stage to the middle stage of foundation building. It seems that there is only one line difference, but the ravine in it is also unfathomable.

 The ink painting is also awe-inspiring.

It's also possible that it's just my own illusion…

This formation pattern is an immortal pattern.

 “This is the path for the geniuses of aristocratic families, they want to polish their realm...”

“I just don't know if I can compete head-on with other foundation-building monks after I build the foundation. My spiritual consciousness will be further improved and my spells will be stronger..."

 “Let's eat something first.”

Mr. Zhuang said: "The Formation Sect is like this..."

“What the Five Elements Sect relies on, and is most famous for, is a complete formation that can increase the spiritual power of the Five Elements from low-grade to high-grade!”

 He wanted to look through it, but the stall owner wouldn't let him.

 The boundary he is currently in is the boundary of the third-level Dali Mountain Prefecture.

Mo Hua sighed, then thought again, this is actually good, as he doesn't have to worry about polishing his cultivation, and it can save worry, effort and spiritual stones.

The key point is that this second-grade formation book is quite expensive. Just looking at the names of the formations recorded in it, they are all crappy formations and not worth wasting spiritual stones.

On the street, he could see many foundation-building monks.

“Once they have perfected their Qi refining and laid a good foundation, after building the foundation, the spiritual energy in the sky will change qualitatively, and the foundation of the great road will be laid.”

Now it seems that it is indeed too difficult for Qi Refining monks to cultivate the fourteen lines of spiritual consciousness.

 At present, I am not a match for the foundation-building monks.

Mo Hua nodded thoughtfully.

Mo Hua first settled Dabai and asked the waiter to feed it high-quality grass. After seeing that it ate deliciously, he touched Dabai's mane before leaving.

The carriage drove all the way and trekked for more than ten days, and finally passed through the mountain road at the border of Dali Mountain and arrived at Lishan City.

 “Add fuel to the flames?” Mo Hua didn't quite understand.

Which qi refining monk can have the peak spiritual consciousness in the early stage of foundation building?

This is spiritual consciousness, which is ethereal, difficult to cultivate, difficult to practice, and difficult to enhance...

 Things in this world are really complicated.

 The third-grade fairy city is indeed different.

 He thought for a while and decided to tell the truth:

Mr. Zhuang laughed a little and said:

 Isn't it not good that my spiritual roots are so poor and I don't feel depressed at all?…

Mr. Zhuang looked a little solemn and said with emotion:

When we first met, I was only at the third level of Qi refining, and they were already in the late stage of Qi refining. Now I am at the ninth level of Qi refining, and they are all still at the ninth level.

“For a family like the Bai family, building foundation and refining Qi are not much different…”

 “Not bad.” Mr. Zhuang nodded:

These meals were all ordered by Mo Hua himself.

“The array masters gathered together, the value of the cave doubled, and every inch of land away from the mountain city was valuable.”

 “This child has a really good nature...”

Mo Hua came back to his senses, smiled and nodded.

Mr. Zhuang glanced at the ink painting and said solemnly:

“This is what you have to learn and must learn, the Five Elements Absolute Formation with thirteen patterns on the first level!”
