Cultivation starts with time management

Ling Yunpo felt very subtle, warm, ubiquitous, as if rhythmic pacing pressure came from his surroundings, which reminded him of a uterus full of amniotic fluid for no reason.

However, the consciousness soon became groggy, because the flow of time was slowly increasing.

"Shu Yi Ji" in the Southern Dynasties once recorded that a woodcutter was cutting wood, and when he saw a boy playing chess and singing, he stopped to watch.

He was fascinated by it. After the boy finished playing chess, the woodcutter found that the wooden handle of the ax was completely rotten. When he returned to his hometown, he found that a hundred years had passed, and all the people he knew had disappeared.

As the flow rate of time increases, the monk's thoughts will also start to slow down, just like a woodcutter watching chess. In the end, the body can only repeat mechanical movements without any ability to think.

Therefore, Ling Yunpo calmed down quickly, and began to urge the sea of ​​Qi to rotate. While exhaling and refining Qi and compressing the true energy to turn it into true essence, he tried to use the true essence to warm and nourish the inner wall of the Zifu, perfecting the flaws.

As the sea of ​​qi turned faster and faster, while his consciousness was drowsy, a trace of true energy began to be extracted from the sea of ​​qi, and rotated close to the inner wall of the purple mansion. "Are.

"Huh?" Kunlun Mirror suddenly said, "This power of time and space feels like a fragment of my body..."

Seeing Ling Yunpo's consciousness go silent, it knew that the velocity of time and space had increased, and this guy couldn't speak now.

"However, the fragments of the main body should not be here." Kunlun Mirror continued to say to himself, "This is just borrowing its power."

"The only thing that is certain is that my fragments must be inside the Demon Locking Tower, eh."

"With your current state, it's too early to plot these things."

"Hurry up and become stronger."

……

About a quarter of an hour later, Ling Yunpo finally woke up slowly.

He subconsciously invoked his inner vision, and then he was startled.

Most of the entire sea of ​​qi has been occupied by true essence, and only three or four out of ten of the true qi are left, floating slowly on the top of the upper dantian.

If true energy is like a mountain stream, then true energy is like a great river, the latter almost crushing the former in terms of quality.

The result of this is the double increase in power and battery life in terms of urging swordsmanship, Taoism, and magic weapons.

However, Ling Yunpo didn't have the time to confirm how much stronger he had become. He just pulled himself out of the giant cocoon in a hurry, and then went to look for Senior Sister An next to him.

After a while, An Zhisu also struggled out of the cocoon, then rolled over and fell down, just in time to be caught by Ling Yunpo who had been waiting for a long time.

"Senior Sister." Ling Yunpo was obviously relieved, "Fortunately, you are fine."

"This is a mere cocoon, how could something happen?" An Zhisu also joked, but his expression warmed up, "You let me down first."

"Ah."

An Zhisu landed on the ground and stood firm. Only then did the two realize that each other was covered with mucus from the giant cocoon, which was so sticky and uncomfortable.

After simply washing the water on the ground for a while, Ling Yunpo clapped his hands and said with a smile:

"Gold Mercury Pill Huaye has been used for 60 years, and the Giant Cocoon in the Sea of ​​Clouds has been used for 30 years. Senior sister, this is equivalent to 90 years of painstaking cultivation? In this way, isn't it already determined that the Dancheng is a top grade?"

"If you want to reach the third grade of alchemy, according to the efficiency of normal cultivation, it will take 200 years in Huafu to be sure." An Zhisu pondered for a moment, then said calmly, "At this rate, if there is no accident, you should be able to reach the third grade of alchemy."

Ling Yunpo hastily congratulated his senior sister, feeling emotional in his heart.

It takes 200 years to transform the mansion to form a third-grade golden elixir; for a second-grade golden pill, it takes at least 400 years.

As for Dancheng Yipin, it is inferred that at least 800 years... there is no record in history.

Probably because one does not enter the Jindan realm, a person's lifespan is at most two hundred years, excluding qi refining and washing marrow, at most it is only 150 years, how can it be possible to transform the mansion for 200 years?

You have to be like me and Sister An, who first join the famous decent sect, and then enter various secret realms, relying on adventures one after another, to have a chance to hit the third-rank golden core.

As for the second-grade golden elixir, it is not a peerless genius, so don't even think about it!

Now this identity is Shushan Poyun Sword Immortal, and the treatment is roughly similar to that of Senior Sister An. First, he has the power of gold mercury pill, and then he has the speed of cloud sea and empty cocoon. It is estimated that he can save 90 years of hard work.

Gold Mercury Danhua Liquid, the medicinal power can only be refined into a spoonful at most, any more will be regarded as poison.

The sea of ​​clouds is an empty cocoon, and at most it can only accelerate once, otherwise it will cause insanity.

If you continue to cultivate according to this step, you will have about 150 years of Yangshou.Excluding the last ten years spent on forming alchemy, it is equivalent to 230 years in Huafu, and the third-rank golden elixir is guaranteed, and there are still about 170 years before the second-rank.

After the Demon Locking Tower is over, I have to switch to Qiu Changtian and Luo Yan to see if there are any similar secret adventures in Kunlun Taiqingzong and Penglai Yuqing Temple, so that I can stack the second-grade golden pills!

Seeing Ling Yunpo's expression that seemed to be surging, An Zhisu couldn't help but smile.

If my junior brother and I can reach the third rank of alchemy, then one day the master will be released, and I can say that I have lived up to his expectations and have maintained Qingluofeng well...

Chapter 56 Cloud Weaving Spiders, Sword Mountain Dragon

After slightly consolidating the realm of explosive growth, Ling Yunpo and An Zhisu began to explore the surroundings.

Passing through a large number of lying water cocoons, the two continued to advance along the direction of the water flow, and saw more standing silk pillars.

The so-called silk pillars are "pillars of silk weaving".

According to the records in ancient books, three threads make a lock, three locks make a stroke, three strokes make a bundle, three bundles make a twist, three twists make a twist, three twists make a branch, three branches make a stem, and three stems make a stem. There are one hundred and eighty stems, which are intertwined with each other to form a pillar of silk weaving, holding up the empty cocoon, with infinite length, but it is not known where the root is, as if in the abyss.

At this time, what the two of them were at seemed to be the roots of these silk pillars, which was also the bottom of the "Abyss" recorded in ancient books.

I saw these silk threads intertwined and knotted at the bottom, submerged in the water; there were also a large number of "spiders", slender and light, walking on water, extremely timid, seeing Ling Yunpo and An Zhisu coming, they coaxed each other And scattered, a large number of ripples were stepped on the water surface, rippling.

"So it's the empty cocoons woven by these spiders." An Zhisu smiled suddenly.

Following the senior sister's gaze, Ling Yunpo saw a large number of unformed cocoons scattered among the roots of the silk pillar, some of which were more than half finished, and some were only [-]/[-] of weaving.

"These are 'cloud weaving spiders'." In the sea of ​​consciousness, Kunlun Jing suddenly said, "They are a kind of space-time monsters that feed on 'fragmented history', which is the 'time thread' I told you before."

It couldn't help feeling:

"Weaving Cloud Spiders are harmless by nature, and even they are imprisoned here. It seems that the purpose of building this demon-locking tower is by no means for the so-called 'preventing demon race'."

"The Locking Demon Tower was not originally built by the Shangqing sect in Shushan Mountain." Ling Yunpo said disapprovingly, "Shushan said that it was built by the great powers of the human race to guard against the demon race, and where did it come from? It's just based on its own politics. The purpose is to make arbitrary interpretations."

"But Ah Jing, I thought that as an ancient thing, you could know the secrets of the Demon Locking Tower... It turns out that you don't know much about it either."

"I am the mirror in the Palace of the Queen Mother of the West, and not the mirror in the mortal world. How could I know everything about the world?" Kunlun Mirror said angrily, "If it's not...forget it."

Its voice paused for a moment, and then said:

"The thread of time weaved by the cloud-weaving spider must extend from the past to the future. Therefore, the time and space of this world is discontinuous. The more you fly up, the longer the space will be stretched, and it will never be possible to fly to the end. "

"So let's leave with the 'Wanli Water Vein Magic Walk Talisman'."

Ling Yunpo was a little speechless, and said after a while:

"Why did this broken talisman take us to some abnormal places? Couldn't it just teleport us outside the tower?"

"All water veins have an extremely mysterious connection in the water system of the Five Elements. The Wanli Water Vein Magical Amulet just transports you from the upstream of this mysterious connection to the downstream." Kunlun Mirror said meaningfully, "What's more, If you leave the Demon Locking Tower now, it may not be a good thing."

"It's not a good thing? What do you mean... oh." Ling Yunpo's mind turned quickly, and he immediately realized that this had something to do with what Qiu Changtian mentioned, "the coming death calamity".

In other words, during the time when my senior sister and I were away, some changes that were extremely unfavorable to us had taken place outside.

Thinking of this, Ling Yunpo said to An Zhisu:

"Senior sister, if we continue to fly upwards, we don't know where we will arrive. It should be noted that the sea of ​​clouds and sky is almost infinitely high, infinitely deep, and has never even been explored to the boundary. Why don't we use the spell again and jump to the next water source? good?"

"Yes, yes." An Zhisu said hesitantly, "It's just that I jumped from the eighth floor to the No. Jumped from the bottom of the Demon Locking Tower."

"The further you go to the bottom of the demon-locking tower, the more powerful the imprisoned demons will be; if you exceed the [-]th floor, you will have the strength of the Jindan rank. Is this too dangerous?"

Ling Yunpo: ...

That's right.

Now that the marrow washing is complete, and with the power of 30 years of hard work at the Huafu rank, the trip to the Demon Locking Tower can be said to be a lot of money, and there is no need to take further risks at all.

If Qiu Changtian hadn't reminded him, he would have tried every means to withdraw from the trial, and went back to Qingluo Peak to drink the gold mercury elixir.

However, in view of the trip to the palace, Ling Yunpo still had a minimum of trust in his golden finger, so he said to Senior Sister An:

"That's true, why don't we fly up first. If we can't find the exit of this world, how about going down and urging the talismans to jump?"

"Okay." An Zhisu naturally agreed.

The two of them drove up the sword light and flew up along the silk pillar.

After flying for six or seven hours, I still couldn't see the end of the pillar. I saw it extending upwards into the sea of ​​clouds and downwards into the foggy mountains.

An Zhisu let out a long sigh, and could only press the sword light again with Ling Yunpo.After a long time, I finally returned to the water again.

Ling Yunpo took out the Wanli Water Vein Magical Amulet, injected it with real energy, and started to move it.

The two disappeared in place again.After a while, countless cloud-weaving spiders rustled and cautiously emerged from behind the silk pillars.

They surrounded the place where Ling Yunpo was originally standing, looking left and right, as if they were perceiving something.

Suddenly, Ling Yunpo and An Zhisu came to another world.

When I opened my eyes, I saw the red river gushing down, slapping the river banks on both sides, like a dragon roaring.

Are we back to the sea of ​​blood on the eighth floor of No.20?

Ling Yun Pozheng was in a daze, only to hear An Zhisu gritted his teeth next to him, squeezed out a few words from between his teeth, and his voice was forced to be calm:

"Junior brother, look ahead..."

Ling Yunpo raised his head suddenly, and saw a huge dragon crouching at the source of the raging river, on the crimson sandstone peak.

The dragon's body is almost as long as the mountain peak. The golden dragon scales are neatly arranged, and there are colorful wings attached to the side. Several thick chains pierced its lower body, binding it firmly on the blade-like mountain peak. superior.

Blood continued to flow downward along the wounds caused by the chains, like a spring.

However, its upper body can move freely, and it is lowering its huge head at this time, with a pair of indifferent golden vertical pupils, staring at Ling Yunpo and An Zhisu from close range, as if a giant is sizing up ants.

Ling Yunpo could even feel the dragon's breath.When it inhales, the wind blows to the front, and when it exhales, the wind blows to the rear, alternating back and forth, carrying abundant water vapor.

"Two..." it finally spoke, although it tried to speak softly, but the sound was still like thunder, "Two human beings who are not at the transforming stage..."

"...How did you get here?"

Ling Yunpo was silent for a moment, then grabbed An Zhisu, who was facing a formidable enemy, and said slowly:

"Water Vessel Magical Amulet."

The dragon tilted his head slightly, staring at the talisman in his hand.

"……I see."

Chapter 57 Prisoner's Dilemma, Believe in Senior Sister

The giant dragon is entrenched on the mountain of knives.

Its tail flicked back and forth constantly, accompanied by frequent violent landslides, and a large amount of ocher-red earth and stone fell into the Chijiang River.

Although imprisoned by the chain piercing, doing so will make the wound continue to bleed, it does not seem to be bleeding or weakening.

The dragon's upper body remained motionless, its golden vertical pupils quietly stared at the two of them, and the invisible fear as towering as a mountain slowly fell along with its gaze.

Then, it suddenly grinned slowly, showing a humanized expression that seemed to be a smile.

"Two humans, I want to play a game with you."

Ling Yunpo didn't answer, but silently approached the senior sister.

An Zhisu's fingers were slightly bent, and the Frostfall Sword was ready to go.

"Don't try to resist with force." The dragon continued to say with a strange smile, "Given the difference in realm between you and me, you have no hope of victory."

As soon as the words fell, some kind of extremely terrifying coercion descended directly out of thin air.

The expressions of the two of them changed, and they sensed some kind of invisible bondage that was hard to break free, oppressing their consciousness and limbs so that they could not move, like fragile frogs that had been roughly stuffed into a small urn.

In the next second, the coercion suddenly disappeared, and it was gone, as if everything just now was just an illusion.

Ling Yunpo and An Zhisu looked at each other, and they both read horror and fear from each other's eyes.

"My game is called 'Prisoner'."

The giant dragon blew lightly, and thick fog rose up, separating Ling Yunpo and An Zhisu.

In the thick fog, Ling Yunpo found that his sight was restricted, his voice was muted, and his consciousness could not be used, just like the "big mist and dark mountains" sealed on the Qingping sword.

"This is the true law of transformation of the Five Elements Water System." The voice of the giant dragon came from the fog, "In this law, light, sound, spiritual consciousness...all invisible transmissions are subject to me."

"In other words, you and your senior sister are now my prisoners."

"The rules of the game are very simple." Julong continued leisurely, "Although you can't see or hear her, you know that your senior sister is by your side."

"You can choose whether to kill her. Of course, she can also choose."
