Chapter 729: Jiumodan, a life-extending medicine

"Fellow Daoist Ye, to be honest, we are here to discuss a major matter."

Ye Yangyang's heart was moved, but his face remained calm as he raised his hands and asked.

"The two seniors have spoken seriously. Although the junior is not talented, he is still willing to contribute. May I ask the empress and senior Zhi Tianji, what is the so-called big event?"

Sui, spoke with a solemn tone,

"Fellow Daoist Ye, to be honest, I recently observed a strange phenomenon through the Tianji Mirror. In the land of the netherworld, there is a Dharma Master, only one step away from the Yuanshen Taoist."

"That man is very powerful and has reached his peak. He is in the depths of the Netherworld and the Blood Sea of ​​the Cultivation World, and is plotting to break through to the Taoist realm."

"This person's cultivation is unpredictable and his methods are ruthless. If he succeeds in breaking through, it will add another power to Netherworld, and for us, the consequences will be disastrous."

The Empress of Yama also took over, her voice cold and powerful.

"The name of the Dharma Master is Jiumodan. He is very ambitious. He has practiced the Blood Bodhi Sun Shooting Technique and is extremely powerful."

Ye Yang frowned when he heard this, already understanding the seriousness of the matter.

He said after pondering for a moment.

"What the two seniors said is absolutely true. If such a person is left alone, he will definitely become a great disaster to the cultivation world.

Empress Yama and Zhi Tianji glanced at each other, with a flash of worry in their eyes, and then said.

"It's not that simple. Netherworld Huangquan is too strong now. Adding another Taoist monk will be a disaster for us."

"Furthermore, the Blood Bodhi Sun Shooting Technique practiced by Jiumodan is extremely evil and requires the flesh and blood of countless practitioners. Once he is allowed to break through, the harm will be incalculable."

"In addition, Jiumodan holds a precious Dharma image in his hand, which he obtained from many years of practice."

"It will be of great help to improve our cultivation. These Dharma images that are about to break through to the realm of Taoists are about to transform into the root fruit of Yuanshen, full of Tao charm."

"If we can understand it carefully, it will definitely be a big help to us."

After hearing this, Ye Yang quickly made up his mind.

It has been a long time since he broke through to the Tiangang realm.

But I have never found a suitable opportunity to break through to the realm of Dharma.

Nowadays, the situation in the cultivation world is turbulent, and various forces are still eyeing it.

The stronger one is, the better one can take advantage of this changing situation, and even chart a path to immortality.

This opportunity comes once in a lifetime.

Since Zhi Tianji and Empress Yama are willing to take them to participate, there is absolutely no need to refuse.

Now it seems that this may be an opportunity. Since Jiumodaan holds a valuable treasure and can eliminate harm to the cultivation world, he may be able to take this opportunity to take a further step.

now.

Ye Yang keenly felt that this was a good opportunity, and he breathed out.

"Two seniors, in this case, I am also willing to participate."

Ye Yang said slowly, with determination in his eyes.

Empress Yama and Zhi Tianji looked at each other and saw recognition in each other's eyes.

"Okay, in that case, the three of us will plan carefully."

Empress Yama said in a deep voice.

"The body of Jiumodan is hidden deep in the blood sea. It is said that there is a ruin left by the battle between Taoists and monks in ancient times. The blood rained down on the world. It is surrounded by powerful barriers and space cracks. If you want to It’s not easy to get close to him.”

Zhi Tianji also stroked his beard gently and said thoughtfully.

"Yes, I once sneaked into the land of the sea of ​​​​blood in my early years. It was so dark that it was almost impossible to see anything. It is a place where practitioners talk about it."

"And the environment is extremely harsh. Not only are there ferocious blood beasts, but there are also all kinds of unknown dangers."

"However, the more dangerous the place, the greater the opportunity. I heard that there are some scattered inheritance left by the Taoist ancestors there."

Ye Yang heard what they said, pondered for a moment and then said.

"Do we still need to invite other allies to join us? After all, Jiumodan's strength cannot be underestimated. One more manpower means a better chance of winning."

"There is great power in large numbers, but it is also easy for rumors to leak out. If Jiumodan is alerted, it may cause a lot of trouble."

The three people nodded and quickly reached a unified opinion.

Later, Ye Yang, Zhi Tianji, and the Empress of Yama discussed some difficult problems in cultivation.

The realm of these people is far beyond ordinary people.

The Empress of Yama is a powerful person in the Dharma Realm realm.

And knowing the secrets of heaven is even more mysterious, like a Taoist but not like a Taoist.

I don’t even know what level of cultivation it has reached.

Don't give up on this opportunity.

Ye Yang also took the opportunity to raise his own questions.

"Two seniors, when I tried to compress the magic power in my body when I broke through to the real person of Fa Xiang, I always felt an invisible resistance, and it seemed that I couldn't completely transform the magic power."

"It caused the cultivation to stagnate. I wonder if the two seniors encountered a similar situation when they broke through?"

When Zhi Tianji heard what Ye Yang said, he smiled.

"Congratulations, it seems that Fellow Daoist Ye is about to break through to the Dharma Realm."

"I have also experienced the problems you encountered. This kind of resistance often comes from the fact that one's own cultivation foundation is not stable enough, or the understanding of the realm of Dharma is not thorough enough."

"From my point of view, it is still necessary to strengthen the control of the mind, and in addition, it is necessary to increase the foundation of the Tiangang realm."

Empress Yama also spoke.

"What Senior Zhi Tianji said is right. When I was breaking through the Dharma Realm, I also encountered such a problem. After that, I went far away from the desert, went deep into the North Sea, and realized the malice of Yama in the Arctic Ice Prison, and then I successfully broke through to the Dharma Realm."

Ye Yang nodded. The methods mentioned by these two people are good.

You can try it when you have time.

In the end, Zhi Tianji has recently become very interested in water alchemy.

After knowing that Ye Yang is a rare water alchemist, his voice changed and talked about his troubles in alchemy.

"I have been studying the art of water alchemy recently. I heard that Fellow Daoist Ye is a rare master of water alchemy, so I want to ask for advice."

"I have been trying to refine a kind of elixir that can improve the quality recently, but I don't know why, it always fails at the last critical step. I want to know, is there any way to increase the success rate?"

Ye Yang thought about it and answered.

"Water alchemy is very important. It not only pays great attention to the temperature and timing, but also pays more attention to the operation."

"My suggestion is that you should first ask for a water seed, and then start from the basics, control the details of the operation. In addition, it is equally important to keep a calm mind during the process of alchemy."

What Ye Yang said was obviously of great help to Zhi Tianji.

After listening, he was thoughtful, his brows gradually relaxed, and a grateful smile appeared on his face.

"Fellow Daoist Ye is right. These two points are exactly what I have neglected recently."

After three rounds of tea, the atmosphere between the three people became more and more harmonious as they sat together.

As the night deepened.

Their topic gradually expanded from alchemy skills to a wider range of cultivation.

Time seemed to slow down as the fragrance of tea lingered.

While they talked about the strange stories in the world of cultivation, they exchanged their respective cultivation experiences.

It was not until the early morning that the three people gradually dispersed.

The next day.

Ye Yang was still thinking about what happened yesterday.

This time, it involved his own breakthrough, and he must grasp it well and not let it go.

Now his own strength has reached a bottleneck period, and it is not as easy as imagined to break through.

If he can upgrade the Yin Sui Dao again before leaving, I think this trip will definitely increase a lot of confidence.

But before that, there is one more thing to do.

After a long time, he took out the Nine Turns Rejuvenation Grass that he had obtained not long ago from his arms.

This grass is bright green, with golden light on the edges of the leaves, and a small and exquisite flower bud grows in the center.

The petals are half open and half closed, exuding a fresh and elegant fragrance.

After putting this thing in the air.

Ye Yang waved his hand slightly, and the sky saw a flash of light in the sky, and a small and exquisite but ancient alchemy furnace appeared in front of him.

(II)

After a while, the alchemy furnace expanded rapidly and floated steadily in the air. Below it was a huge ancient toad with the alchemy furnace on its back.

This alchemy furnace may have been bronze because it took too long to refine the alchemy.

The surface is engraved with complex runes and patterns.

Each pattern seems to contain infinite mysteries.

The furnace body emits a faint light, reflecting the faces of the people around, which looks particularly mysterious and solemn.

And as Ye Yang's mind moved.

A vast spiritual river with azure, green and red fireworks light intertwined immediately flew out of his sleeves. Every drop of water in it flashes different colors.

At this moment, the Three Treasures Spiritual River is like a dragon, circling and surrounding him behind him, and then it also turns into three different colors of light, slowly rotating around the Toad King Furnace.

Ye Yang sat cross-legged, closed his eyes and concentrated, and began to guide the spiritual energy of heaven and earth to gather in the Toad King Furnace.

He first gently put the Nine Turns Rejuvenation Grass into the furnace, and then added a few auxiliary medicinal materials.

These medicinal materials are also rare treasures that can greatly enhance the effect of the elixir.

With the addition of medicinal materials, Ye Yang began to mobilize the power of the Three Treasures Spiritual River.

He moved his water-controlling handprint slightly, and the Three Treasures Spiritual River immediately spun rapidly, with white steam rising and hot water surging.

After a while, the water method merged and completely wrapped the alchemy furnace.

As time passed, the medicinal materials in the furnace gradually melted and turned into liquid, emitting a strong medicinal fragrance.

Ye Yang kept adjusting the temperature to ensure that every step was just right.

Finally, when the elixir was about to take shape.

The Three Treasures Spiritual River roared and soared into the sky, drawing three bright light bands, circling in the air for several circles, and then accurately fell into the alchemy furnace.

Provide spiritual power for the final formation of the elixir.

With the integration of the Three Treasures Spiritual River, the reaction in the alchemy furnace became more intense, and the runes on the surface of the furnace began to flash with dazzling light, as bright as stars.

Fine beads of sweat oozed from Ye Yang's forehead.

But his eyes were still firm, and his fingers were like flying butterflies, quickly and accurately playing a spell.

Finally, after several hours of careful refining, a stronger aroma spread from the furnace.

Ye Yang opened his eyes, his eyes flashing with the joy of success.

He carefully opened the Toad King Furnace, and the Three Treasures Spirit River flew back into his sleeves like a smart dragon.

And in the furnace lay several crystal clear pills quietly.

It was the longevity pill he refined.

This pill can not only greatly extend the life of the person who takes it.

It can also improve your cultivation to a certain extent, which is a rare elixir.

Ye Yang picked up a longevity elixir and observed it carefully. The elixir was about the size of a fingertip, golden in color, smooth as jade on the surface, and exuded a light aroma, which made people feel relaxed and happy.

After confirming that it was correct, there was a trace of satisfaction in his eyes, and then he took out one and swallowed it.

The elixir entered his throat, and a warm feeling instantly spread from Ye Yang's throat to his whole body.

He closed his eyes and felt the warmth emanating from the elixir in his body, gradually seeping into his meridians.

With the flow of warm current, Ye Yang felt that the energy and blood in his body began to become more vigorous. In an instant, even his own vitality increased a lot.

After a while, Ye Yang slowly opened his eyes, with a faint smile on his face.

He felt that his physical condition had reached an unprecedented peak, especially his vitality had increased a lot.

This feeling filled him with joy and satisfaction.

"It is indeed a life-extending pill. The effect is better than I expected. In just a moment, it has at least increased my life span by ten years."

Ye Yang admired softly.

Although he is still young compared to the lifespan of a real person, no practitioner would think that his lifespan is too long.

In addition, he is currently at the Tiangang realm, so relatively speaking, the increase in his lifespan is not much.

If it were an ordinary monk, his lifespan would be greatly extended.

Afterwards, Ye Yang took the longevity pill and walked out of the quiet room.

Along the way, the mountain breeze blew gently, the grass and trees swayed, and the wind sounded gentle on the path, but Ye Yang had no intention of observing carefully.

My heart became slightly heavy. .

After a while, Ye Yang came to a simple courtyard.

The small courtyard is surrounded by various herbs, which are swaying gently in the wind at the moment, exuding bursts of fragrance.

The courtyard is paved with fine stones, which adds a sense of tranquility to the entire environment.

Opening the door, the scene inside the room made Ye Yang's heart tighten.

I saw an old man lying on the bed, his face was pale, his eyes were sunken, and he looked very weak.

Seeing Ye Yang come in, he forced a smile and tried to struggle to get up.

"I've met Zhenren Ye."

Hearing this, Ye Yang felt even heavier.

"Uncle Bai, why do you and I, my nephew and I, need to say such outrageous things?"

Ye Yang walked quickly to the bed, with unconcealable worry and anxiety in his tone.

"Still not getting better?"

Bai Zizhen shook his head slightly, trying to respond to Ye Yang's concern in a calm manner.

"It's okay. I'm just feeling a little unwell recently. I'll be fine after a few days of rest."

Although he tried to appear relaxed, the weakness in his voice was unmistakable.

Ye Yang knew that this was not a problem with his own situation.

But Bai Zizhen is really old and has reached the end of his life.

This is the rule of the cycle of life and death in heaven and earth, and medicine and stone cannot save it.

Ye Yang knew in his heart that no matter how good his medical elixir skills were, he could not defy the laws of nature.

Bai Zizhen's condition has gone beyond what medicine can treat.

Faced with the passing of life, even practitioners have their own insurmountable limits.

"Uncle Master."

Ye Yang's voice was low and firm.

"No panacea in the world can stop the passage of time. However, it is not incurable and can always preserve a glimmer of hope."

When Bai Zizhen heard the words, a flash of complicated emotions flashed in his eyes, including helplessness for life and deep affection for Ye Yang.

"Silly boy, I understand what you mean. Death is inevitable for everyone, and it may be heavier than Mount Tai or lighter than a feather."

"Although I have not been rich or powerful in my life, I still have a clear conscience. Along the way, the Feitian Sect has grown from its humble beginnings to the present. It is becoming stronger and stronger day by day. Even the ancestors who dare not imagine the real person realm are now in the sect. There are several.”

"With you by my side when I grow old, I will have no regrets even if I die immediately."

"Uncle, what are you talking about?"

Ye Yang took out the longevity pill, gently placed it in his palm, and handed it to Bai Zizhen.

"Uncle Master, look what this is."

Bai Zizhen looked at the elixir in Ye Yang's hand, his eyes flashed with disbelief, and then he was deeply moved.

"This, this is the longevity pill!"

His voice was trembling, as if he couldn't believe what he was seeing.

"Yes, Uncle Master. I tried my best to refine this elixir for you."

Ye Yang said seriously, his tone full of genuine concern for Bai Zi.

Ye Yang will never forget Bai Zizhen's support and love when he was young and weak.

In fact, this time the longevity pill was refined just for him.

Bai Zizhen slowly stretched out his hand, took the elixir, and gently rubbed its surface with his fingers, feeling the warm jade-like touch.

"I have no children or nephews in my life. I have only pursued Taoism and practice in my life. Unfortunately, the road to immortality is difficult and I wasted half my life without reaching the realm of a real person."

As he spoke, he shed a tear, and after a moment he opened his eyes, with a hint of indifference and relief in his expression.

“When manpower will eventually be exhausted, nothing can be done by force.”

Bai Zizhen smiled slightly. The smile contained the vicissitudes and helplessness of the years, but it also revealed an unearthly tranquility.

“Although I have not been able to achieve what I wanted, I have no regrets in being able to go this far on this road.”

"Especially when I see you, you have reached the realm that I need to look up to at such a young age, I feel even more happy."

"Your future is limitless. Don't be as stubborn as me."

"Uncle Master, I will remember your advice in my heart. Don't worry, I will definitely climb the immortal road and will not disappoint your expectations."

Bai Zizhen nodded and looked at Ye Yang gently, as if he saw his appearance when he was young.

"Okay, okay, I feel relieved with your words."

"Uncle Master, take the pill first."

Ye Yang reminded him and carefully helped Bai Zizhen take the pill.

The longevity pill entered his body and Bai Zizhen slowly exhaled a breath of turbid air.
