Practice begins with a fisherman

It can be said that regardless of whether the three families of Man, Xiao, and Chen can successfully break through the defense of the Cheng family, the Man family must be seriously injured.

"Sure enough, these families should not be underestimated. It took half a day to break three formations, and they didn't find any treasures of higher value. What should we do if this continues?" Zhao Shoushou frowned as time passed.

The harvest along the way is not small, but it is really not comparable to what he imagined, especially when these monks who are left behind have no way to retreat, they rely on some entanglement with the power of the formation, and even some of the monks know that they are about to fail. Will also choose to destroy some of the most precious treasures.

The performance of these family monks was much better than the original ones who scattered, but Zhao Shoushou obviously didn't have time to continue entangled with them.

"Once the patriarch of the Man family comes back to help, although I'm not afraid, but after all, it's not a home battle. There will only be half an hour left at most." Zhao Shoushou, who has always followed the principle of being cautious in everything, secretly made up his mind.

None of these cultivating families that have been passed down for hundreds of years is Yi Yi's generation, and all of them have ultimate moves. He is just fishing in troubled waters, and he has always had a clear self-awareness about this.

Therefore, after trying to understand the key points, Zhao Shoushou went straight to some of the most important locations on the top of Man's Spirit Mountain without hesitation.

The core of every family is the classic book building that inherits the cultivation skills. Since the Man family once owned the monks in the foundation period for a short time, it is very likely that they have the inheritance of the cultivation skills in the foundation period.

Zhao Shoushou exchanged "Congealing Water Jue" for 150 points, which already met the most basic needs of advanced foundation building, but he would naturally not refuse if there was a better practice method.

Even if it does not match its attributes, it is good for reference. Stones from other mountains can be used to make jade, not to mention a complete set of foundation-building cultivation skills is also expensive.

Perhaps the most precious treasure on the entire Man's Spirit Mountain is just this set of possible exercises. Of course, as the core existence of a family, the classics building is naturally the strongest in staying behind.

"Classical buildings, foundation-building skills, come here." Thinking of this, Zhao Shoushou's heart ignited a flame, and he couldn't hold back the throbbing in his heart anymore, and walked towards a conspicuous two-story wooden attic.

In fact, he didn't know that there was an old monk with white beard and hair sitting in this ordinary attic, and he was also the second late-stage Qi training monk of the Man family.

And according to age, he should belong to the uncle of the patriarch of the Man family. He is over a hundred years old, and he is also an old monk who has been immersed in the late stage of Qi training for more than 20 years. His strength is unfathomable.

On weekdays, he is resident in the Classics Building, and the non-core members of the Man family do not know of his existence. He is also the real backer of the family, and his strength is simply stronger than that of the Man family patriarch.

"The former Foundation Establishment family is so lonely. A late-stage qi refining monk who doesn't know where he came from is like entering no man's land. If he can't be killed, how can he see his ancestors?" The old monk stared wide-eyed.

As the two monks in the late stage of Qi training kept approaching, a real battle was about to break out, perhaps the most powerful enemy Zhao Shoushou had faced since he stepped on the road of cultivation.

But even if you know it, you will not retreat easily. When you meet on a narrow road, the brave wins. Cultivation is basically sailing against the current, and you work hard again and again to fight for a glimmer of opportunity.

"This is the Man family's classic building?" After about a stick of incense, Zhao Shoushou had already appeared under the two-story wooden attic.

It is completely different from the large and small storage places protected by formations that I encountered before. There is no protection by formations here, and the door is so wide open.

This look of inviting you into the urn made him a little dazed, and he didn't even know what to do. Under this situation, there must be a trap.

But if you let him just leave and give up like this, it is absolutely impossible, regardless of whether there are mountains of swords and seas of fire or other dangerous places ahead, he must make a breakthrough.

"The Classic Book Building is the important inheritance of the Man family, and anyone who trespasses will die." Like thunder on the ground, a loud and stern voice rushed straight to his spiritual consciousness.

Before the words were finished, a ghostly figure held a special snake-headed walking stick, and threw it at his head decisively with a powerful aura.

The outbreak of the battle between the two can be described as rapid and intense. You come and go, swords and guns fight head-on between the two sides, and every move is close to the vital point. If you are not careful, you may be seriously injured.

Under the oppression of the old man with white beard and hair, the first-rank top-grade Shuiyin sword was almost powerless to fight back. Only the occasional bronze spear could save some of the situation.

Fortunately, there was a first-tier high-grade copper coin shield for protection. Although some sudden attacks by the old man in the early stage caused some troubles, they did not cause too much damage.

"Everyone knows that the Man family has only one monk in the late stage of Qi refining. Who would have thought that there would be such a powerful backer. These immortal families should not be underestimated." Zhao Shoushou, who was firmly suppressed, hated thinking.

Under the continuous attacks of the old man, Zhao Shoushou already had the intention of retreating. Although he felt a little regretful about the ancient book building that was so close at hand, some of the previous gains finally prevented him from making this trip.

Of course, this old man who has practiced great perfection, after all, is over a hundred years old, and his fierce attack is destined to not last too long.

Therefore, he was quite sure about retreating safely. If he hadn't been afraid of the powerful backlash of the blood cone technique, Zhao Shoushou would have even planned to use it. This was also the last trick.

"The Man family hides quite deeply. Today, Mr. Zhao has confessed. The green mountains will not change, and the green water will flow forever. I will definitely come to visit again in the future." The three first-level high-grade talismans that were detonated instantly blocked the old man's attack, and Zhao Shoushou left a sentence Ruthless words immediately prepared to take the opportunity to leave.

"Although the Man family is unbearable, it doesn't allow a casual cultivator to be humiliated at will. The dignified family can come and leave whenever they want. Where can I be?" the old man asked back, and a strong light burst out from his body. The unknown magical spell unexpectedly bounced off all its talisman attacks at once.

Chapter 173 Strong Killing Under Serious Injury

The sudden bright light was beyond his expectation. Zhao Shoushou, who was originally aiming to buy time to escape, was caught off guard.

I have never been so embarrassed since I set foot on the road of cultivation, and this kind of strong light makes my eyes lag for a moment, even if I open my clear eyes, it will not help.

To be old and not die is to be a thief. The ancients do not deceive me. Although these old guys over a certain age cannot be promoted to the Foundation Establishment Stage, they have more time to practice and comprehend spells.

"Those who humiliate the Man family will surely die." Hearing the old man's indifferent words, he suddenly felt that there was a bad wind coming from his ears, which was the crutch in his hand.

This crutch seems ordinary, but it has proved its essence in a series of battles. The first-rank top-grade Shuiyin sword retreated steadily after being beaten, and only the bronze dagger can compete with it.

If he was hit by the old man's walking stick, Zhao Shoushou would definitely fall here. At this critical moment, he could no longer care about the so-called image, and only had the only thought of saving his life. , luckily escaped by sticking to the lower corner of the walking stick.

However, the right leg was unable to escape this calamity, but there was a slight bump and sharp pain, and he knew in his heart that this was a bone being severely broken.

"These nasty old guys really want someone's life?" He didn't hesitate anymore in the face of such a dangerous situation. What he needed now was to buy some time. After all, the blood cone technique has become a real killer after all these years of cultivation. The time required for sacrifice is also getting longer and longer.

The old man with white beard and hair naturally knew that he would take advantage of his illness to kill him, and would not give Zhao Shoushou any time to react. At this time, the crutch had already struck again.

And there was a faint sound of breaking through the air from another completely opposite direction. If he hadn't used a set of flying needles several times in the middle stage of Qi training, he definitely wouldn't have been able to detect it during the battle.

The white-haired old man's series of attacks can be said to have pushed him into a really dangerous situation. If he can't get rid of it, maybe Man's Lingshan will be the place of his downfall. With his life, the prestige of the Man's family will be achieved. , which he absolutely does not allow.

Zhao Shoushou sacrificed a first-grade top-grade bronze dagger to intercept the crutches. The two first-grade high-grade magic weapons were indistinguishable at once. The opponent looked very angry, but its real purpose was to cover up the real ultimate move.

Unwilling to fall here, he naturally took advantage of this opportunity, and had already cast the first-order high-grade barrier technique, and several water-ice combinations became the first solid barrier in front of him.

After a while groping in the storage bag, three first-grade high-grade earth and stone talisman seals appeared in his hand, which he obtained after breaking the Man family's special place for making talisman seals.

The first-level high-grade earth and stone talisman is modeled after the first-level middle-grade earth and stone formation. Its power may not be too strong among the same level, but it is enough to correct it for a while. This is also taken from Man's use Yu Mans.

It is relatively simple to get started making talismans, and it is the only way for almost every small family to earn spirit stones. Therefore, the number of talismans obtained in Man's Talisman Making Shop is quite large.

Zhao Shoushou, who has always loved talismans in battle, was naturally not stingy, and the ten talismans in both hands were activated at once, and the target was the old man.

Zhao Shoushou didn't believe that the strong light that the old man used to bounce back the attack could be used at will, but all powerful attacks had some side effects, just like his blood cone technique.

Sure enough, facing more than a dozen first-tier upper-middle-grade talisman seals with different attributes, the old man also needed to be careful in dealing with it, even though he had been immersed in the late stage of Qi refining for many years.

At the moment when both sides were trying their best to deal with it, the flying needle instrument that had been hidden in the dark and made the sound of piercing the sky also appeared not far away. The first-level high-grade barrier technique did not seem to have much effect, but a flicker had disappeared without a trace.

Fortunately, there were three first-grade top-grade earth-stone talismans after that. This special earth-rock crystallization had a good effect on flying needles. Only a few crisp sounds were heard, and they were successfully blocked outside.

Although the flying needle is still advancing, and as time goes by, the first-level top-grade earth and stone talisman will definitely be broken, but it is enough to buy time.

"Since this old guy wants to go down to see Hades, someone will give you a ride today." His face was full of resentment, after all, once he sacrificed the blood cone technique, it would mean a recovery period of up to half a year.

Now I just hope that I can get some good results in this ancient book building. Having an old guy on the tenth floor of Qi training stationed here shouldn't disappoint him too much.

Now that he had made up his mind, Zhao Shoushou no longer hesitated, sitting cross-legged on the ground and wholeheartedly driving the blood cone that Yun Yun had raised in his dantian for nearly ten years.

Compared with the barely formed last time, the blood cone is smaller this time, but it looks more solid, and you can even feel the bloody lines.

As soon as Shenshen Fang touched Zhao Shoushou, he seemed to enter a blood-red world, and the smell of blood was everywhere in his eyes. After swallowing, he lazily walked out along the meridians with satisfaction.

At this time, if someone looked at it from the outside, they would definitely find that Zhao Shoushou's whole body was almost plunged into an inexplicable red color, and his meridians bulged as if they were under tremendous pressure.

"Blood Cone Technique, Edict" After Zhao Shoushou roared, a cone-shaped foreign object that was only as long as a little finger shot out from Zhao Shoushou's mouth.

It was too late to say, all this happened in an instant, after the old man in the distance noticed something strange, it was too late.

A red blood cone was like an arrow leaving the string, and even split into two halfway, one left and one right flanking the old man, he firmly believed that no one could resist it during the Qi refining period.

"What kind of monster is this? Moxiu, it turns out to be Moxiu!" The old man with white beard and hair screamed, and two bloody lights on the left and right had already passed through, leaving only two finger-thick blood streams outside. the wound.

The victory and defeat had already been separated at this moment. Under the backlash of the blood cone technique, Zhao Shoushou was also uncomfortable, his face was pale, and his headache was splitting, all of which were signs of excessive consumption of spiritual consciousness.

But now he doesn't care about these things. After beheading the strongest enemy, the door of the classic book building has been opened to him. Of course, he has not forgotten the old man's walking stick and flying needle, which caused him a lot of trouble.

It's a pity that he didn't find anything similar to a storage bag on the old man, but he didn't have much time to continue to delay, so after a simple search, he had already moved towards the classics building related to family inheritance.

Every skill in it was searched by the ancestors of the Man family through countless difficulties and obstacles. After being robbed by Zhao Shoushou, the Man family's doom was doomed.

Chapter 174 "Earth Splitting Art" and the Pearl of Garrisoning Earth

These things just flashed through his mind. Zhao Shoushou obviously didn't care too much about the decline of the Man family, and even wished that it could completely decline earlier.

After all, after this incident, he and the Man family have become real enemies, and there is no possibility of reconciliation between the two parties.

"It is indeed the family with the longest heritage in Shuixi Town. It has a complete set of Qi-refinement techniques of gold, wood, water, fire and earth, and even a book of ice-attribute exercises, but today all of them have become trophies of a certain person." Just like Grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden, Zhao Shoushou expressed his gratitude to him. There is almost no resistance to the inheritance of various spells and exercises.

All the exercises seen along the way were wiped out, except for some bare wooden frames, there was hardly any jade slip left.

Cultivation techniques and spell inheritance jade slips are both precious and worthless, basically they vary from person to person.

Since Zhao Shoushou embarked on the road of practice, he has always lacked knowledge about the inheritance of this kind of jade slips, and some of the knowledge he knows so far is just pieced together over the years and does not form a system.

In fact, this is also the status quo that most casual cultivators are facing. Unless they can break through the foundation building period by chance in the future, they will have the opportunity to slowly complete it.

Originally, most of the first floor of the classics building was open to monks in the Qi refining period, but Zhao Shoushou still didn't let it go, so naturally he wouldn't have time to look at it now.

Zhao Shoushou's main target is located on the second floor, on the stairs at an inconspicuous corner, but there is a layer of light shield to prevent the monks from moving forward.

"These cultivation families are obviously in decline, but they still have so many large and small formations to protect them. It's really shocking when they don't know. This is the real background." Zhao Shoushou seemed very emotional about this situation.

You must know that the Man family is just a family that is about to decline in the Qi refining period in an unknown place in Shuixi Town. Seeing the leaves is the autumn, and from this we can know the real scene of some Zongmen families.

But he obviously won't stop because of this, the first-tier top-grade bronze dagger in his hand has already accumulated strength, and launched the most violent attack upwards.

This light shield is only used to block it, and it does not have too strong defense and counterattack power, so after a burst of crazy attacks, a square opening that can accommodate adults has been revealed.

With the passage of time, the backlash force after the blood cone technique was activated has become more and more powerful, so he must complete the task as soon as possible and leave.

On the second floor of the Man family classics building there is only a small altar, on which is a picture of the ancestor who opened up the Man family, and not far from the tribute, there is a jade slip and a special porcelain box.

A simple futon for meditation was left by the old man with white beard who originally sat here. There is nothing else on the second floor of the building he guarded with his life.

"Zhao has no malice towards the Man family. It is helpless to disturb the Man family today. Please forgive me, senior. After taking these two treasures, I will never dare to commit any crimes and leave immediately." After saluting briefly to the portrait on the wall , Zhao Shoushou waved his hands, and a flash of inspiration flashed across the jade slip and porcelain box.

After looking at the second floor with his spiritual sense to make sure that there was nothing missing, he didn't stop there, and had to leave as soon as possible under the circumstance that the clan chief of the Man clan might return at any time.

Because of the hidden danger of the backlash power of the blood cone technique, once he encounters a siege, the strength he can display is extremely limited, and then it will be the real steal.

Although he knew that there were still many treasures left on the Lingshan Mountain, Zhao Shoushou did not dare to delay any longer, and left decisively after taking away the most valued treasures.

"The blood awl technique from the inheritance of magic skills really can't be used easily, and the power of backlash is getting stronger, so we must adjust our breath as soon as possible." Half an hour later, Zhao Shoushou, who was more than a hundred miles away from Man's Lingshan, turned paler, his lips curled up. There is no trace of blood on it.

Although the power of the blood cone technique increased greatly this time to kill the powerful white-haired old man in one fell swoop, the power of counterattack also increased simultaneously.

After continuing to grit his teeth and insist on moving forward for a quarter of an hour, Zhao Shoushou chose a hidden place to meditate and adjust his breath, forcibly suppressing the backlash that was raging in his dantian and meridians.

At the same time, the patriarch of the Man family who had just returned was looking at the dead body of the white-haired old man downstairs in the classics, in great pain.

"In the past hundred years, thanks to your uncle, you have been guarding the classic building, and you have rescued the family many times in critical moments. It's all because of my nephew's desire for profit. Otherwise, this catastrophe would not have happened." The face of the patriarch of the Man family was full of pain and regret. .

"Patriarch, the ancient book building was looted, and the old uncle died because of his death. How can we not avenge this? The enemy must still be nearby, and I am willing to personally lead some family members to pursue it."

"The family suffered heavy losses this time. At least [-] left-behind monks were beheaded and killed. I am willing to share life and death with the enemy."

Faced with the hustle and bustle of quarrels, the patriarch of the Man family had to make a painful decision. This bitter fruit must be swallowed. Even if he knew that the enemy was not far away, the few remaining core members of the family would never have any more loss.

"Since the uncle can be beheaded head-on, the person who came is at least a monk of the tenth level of Qi training. Are we going to chase him down or come to his death? People cannot be resurrected after death. Everyone immediately organize the mountain protection formation to prevent him from secretly Return." The Man clan chief finally made a painful decision.

The sun rose and the moon set, and day and night alternated. After half a month of busy work, Zhao Shoushou's injuries finally stabilized. Under the protection of two first-tier middle-grade cormorant spirit beasts, no other attacks occurred.

Now Zhao Shoushouou can start to inspect the harvest of this trip, especially the treasures obtained from the second floor of the classics building. He has a hunch that they are all the treasures he needs now.

"The Earth-Splitting Technique of "Earth-Splitting Art" can be cultivated to meet the requirements of the Foundation Establishment Stage and the Golden Core Stage. The power of the Earth-Splitting Art contained in it cannot be underestimated. It is a good exercise at the same level," Zhao Shoushou said in a low voice. Soliloquy.

The most important of these are some of the cultivation insights left above, a large part of which is some precautions for breaking through the foundation.

After the ancestor of the Man family built the foundation by chance, he accidentally injured his origin in a battle and couldn't improve his cultivation. However, it was precisely because of this that he had a deeper understanding of the early stage of foundation establishment and helped him even more.

As for the treasures contained in another special porcelain box, it is also recorded, which is another kind of treasures of natural materials, earth and earth, which are of great help in building foundations.

At the beginning, the monks of the foundation period of the Man family were trying to compete for this bead, and suffered a lot of trauma during the battle with the monks of the foundation period who had turned against each other and jointly explored an abandoned spiritual material mine.

Fortunately, after a hard fight, the treasure was finally captured. Unfortunately, there is no successor in the Man family, and no monk has the opportunity to build a foundation.

Chapter 175 Preparations before Foundation Establishment—Ten Levels of Qi Training

The conditions for the formation of Shutu beads are very harsh. Only some earth-type ore veins with stable sources of spiritual power can form one by chance after thousands of years of accumulation.

From its name, it can be seen that this is a special kind of earth attribute treasure, and the most suitable one must also be an earth attribute practitioner. If the attributes match, it can at least increase the possibility of successful foundation building by [-]%.

Of course, this does not mean that monks of different attributes cannot use it. After a special transformation, this kind of pure spiritual power will also have a great effect.

However, in the foundation building, the five-element orbs such as the Shutu Orb and the Water Spirit Orb are all refined at the last moment of the foundation building period, which can replenish a large amount of spiritual power to avoid failure due to insufficient spiritual power.

The Five Elements Orb might be a little tasteless for some monks who have sects and family support, because when they build their foundations, there will be a lot of spiritual power for them to refine and improve their cultivation.

For a lone cultivator, it is quite difficult to find a suitable spiritual vein. With the help of this land-guarding orb, he only needs to be above the first-level middle-high-grade spiritual vein to start retreating cultivation.

From the perspective of the current situation where there are more wolves and less meat in the cultivation world, it is equally difficult to find the first-level upper-middle-level spiritual veins that no one occupies, but it is much better than the second-level spiritual veins that are fundamentally different.

Every Lingshan with second-order spiritual veins is basically occupied by forces with foundation-building monks. Since Zhao Shoushou is unwilling to be controlled by others, this was originally a difficulty, but today it was solved by a land-guarding bead.
