Longevity and Immortal Cultivation: Starting from Controlling Your Own Essence

It was late at night.

In the rest area of ​​the black jade mining area, the snoring was so loud that almost all the miners had fallen asleep.

After being suppressed by the Absolute Spirit Formation, the cultivator lost the ability to refine Qi and meditate to restore himself, so he could only rely on sleep to replenish the lost essence like ordinary people.

In silence:

There was a flash of white brilliance, and the dozen or so figures in the shed fell into a deeper sleep.

The ground automatically 'dissolved', revealing Zhang Yao's figure. He walked lightly and came to the side of Hu Weiwei's bunk.

"Hoo, hoo..."

Hu Weiwei curled up together, sleeping soundly, with a slight snoring sound.

Zhang Yao stretched out a finger, and lightly tapped her forehead. After feeling a few breaths quietly, there was a hint of surprise in his expression:

"Such a high-level bloodline...is the blood of a cat demon flowing in her body?"

In his induction, the vitality in Hu Weiwei's body in front of him was nearly four times that of an ordinary person, far exceeding that of a normal demon cultivator.

"It's scary enough."

Zhang Yao secretly sighed in his heart, and finally understood why the demon cultivator has been passed down for tens of thousands of years and never got rid of it.

Hu Weiwei is only at the Qi refining stage, but relying on the advanced monster blood in her body, she can already live for more than four hundred years, and the upper limit of lifespan is even close to the golden core stage.

Such a huge temptation, who can resist?

If it weren't for the fact that demon cultivators have too many disadvantages, and it is difficult to produce high-level great monks, I am afraid that demon cultivators can replace the way of refining Qi and become the orthodox way of immortality.

"It's incredible! It's really incredible..."

Zhang Yao leaned down, carefully felt the bone, followed the veins, observed the subtle structure, kneaded it a few times from time to time, checked the tooth marks, and soon came to a new judgment.

"This is by no means a cat, but a little tiger!"

"The blood flowing in her body is probably one of the strongest types of tiger blood. No wonder there is such a high upper limit of vitality..."

After initially confirming this point, Zhang Yao's face became a little cloudy.

It has always been one of his goals to find demon cultivators with high bloodlines, but this time he managed to catch a big fish, only to find that the fish was too big, and might even break the net!

Gein: Although bloodlines can evolve and degenerate, generally speaking, such high-level bloodlines are mostly of extraordinary origin, and there may be Jindan ancestors in their ancestors.

"No, it shouldn't be so..."

After Zhang Yao pondered for a moment, he vetoed his own judgment.

After all, if an ancestor of the demon cultivator at the Jindan stage really wants to find the blood descendants he values, there must be a way.

Hu Weiwei has been wandering outside, which means that the demon cultivator group behind her is either extinct, or there is no ancestor of Jindan at all, so she cannot quickly track down her whereabouts.

"This coward is really a bastard."

Zhang Yao checked the vitality of the green-haired boy again, and found that it was slightly inferior to the wild boar family in the mining area, and it was a proper bloodline of the demon cultivator at the bottom.

The source of this kind of blood is almost all ordinary animals that have grown into spirits in an environment full of spiritual energy. Unless there can be a generation of ancestors who have changed their fate against the sky, they will be the bottom demons in the demon clan for generations.

"This Hu Weiwei's bloodline is extraordinary, maybe in her bloodline, there are some methods left by her father and grandparents, so I still have to guard against it."

"Be careful sailing for thousands of years, it's better to be more cautious..."

Zhang Yao pondered for a moment, turned his gaze away from Hu Weiwei, and looked at the green-haired boy beside him.

"stand up!"

Zhang Yao had a thought, and while maintaining his soul-shattering divine light, he awakened the bastard boy Wang Yesan, and performed the "Dafa of Soul Absorption".

He has never had the opportunity to find the real soul-searching secret method, but with the cooperation of the soul-hunting divine light, the soul-absorbing method is still barely enough for now.

"Tell me where you're from..."

Zhang Yao's voice is ethereal, and he maintains the exquisite manipulation of the silence technique with three feet around him, so that the sound can only spread in a very small range.

"I'm from Qiandao Lake in Yuanzhou..."

Wang Yesan looked dull, and instinctively answered Zhang Yao's question.

After a while, Zhang Yao finally figured out the origins of these monster masters and apprentices through detailed inquiries.

The situation of the demon cultivators in Dali is very bad. At the same time, there are internal conflicts and bloody fights. Hu Weiwei, Wang Yesan and others are basically orphans in the demon cultivators.

These orphans are very young, and they have to spend mana to maintain the illusion and concealment technique all the time. They have almost no fighting ability. Once they leave the adult demon cultivator, it will be difficult to survive.

Fortunately, their master "Sun Qian" is a kind person who took them in by his side. He was called master and apprentice, but he was better than adoptive father and son. He led them to hide themselves carefully and live in Leizhou.

More than a year ago, Sun Qian ran into Hu Weiwei who was stealing food in the mortal world, and brought her back to live with Wang Yesan and the others.

According to Hu Weiwei herself, she was separated from her relatives in an accident during the family relocation and fled to Leizhou. Sun Qian once tried to help her find her way home, but ended in failure.

"If this is the case, then it is a great opportunity..."

Zhang Yao's thoughts flickered, and he gradually had new ideas.

The birth of a demon cultivator is difficult, especially the heirs of higher bloodlines, each of whom is highly valued.

As long as the demon cultivator family behind Hu Weiwei is not completely wiped out, they will definitely spare no effort to search for her whereabouts and pay attention to all possible news.

"For more than a year before that, Hu Weiwei followed Sun Qian to wander around the world. Finding her is like finding a needle in a haystack."

"But now that she has been arrested and sent to Suiyu Mountain, if the family behind her has been paying attention to her, they should be able to find out this almost semi-public news soon..."

Thinking of this, Zhang Yao couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth slightly.

Holding Hu Weiwei's key bargaining chip in his hand, he could sit on the Diaoyutai and wait on the sidelines, waiting for the demon cultivator family behind her to slam into the door.

With his current strength, he is enough to fight head-on in the late stage of foundation establishment, and he has more than one hole card, so he naturally has enough confidence in his heart.

Soon, Zhang Yao left the shed, dived back into the ground, and went to another Taibai fine gold mining area.

Coming to another rest area, Zhang Yao felt much more at ease after interrogating Sun Qian and several demon cultivators and checking the information was correct.

"By the way, there is also that strange boy..."

Before leaving, Zhang Yao suddenly thought of the scene he saw during the day, and his heart skipped a beat.

"If something goes wrong, there must be a demon, why don't you go and see."

Thinking of this, he performed the mountain-traversing and earth-escaping technique again, returned to the rest area in the black jade mining area, and came to that hut again.

In silence:

The desolate and soul-stirring divine light emerged again, this time Zhang Yao approached Wu Siwang who was sleeping in the bunk next to Hu Weiwei, and performed the 'Dafa of Concentrating Souls'.

"During the day, why are those monks in the same shed afraid of you?"

Zhang Yao looked at Wu Sifang, who had a dazed and dull expression, and went straight to the point, asking him the question he was most concerned about.

Unexpectedly, there was an accident this time, the Falun Dafa, which has always been invincible,——

"Ho ho..."

Wu Sizhen in front of him instantly rolled his eyes and made a sound like he was panting on the verge of death, and an explosion-like breath gathered in his mind.

"not good!"

Zhang Yao's complexion changed, and he reacted instantly. He suddenly pressed his palm on the top of his head, and the dark white brilliance surged like a wave of water.

Under Zhang Yaowei's full-on 'spiritual light', the bursting breath in Wu Sitang's mind froze for a few moments, and was soon suppressed, and the young man fell to the straw again.

"Divine Soul Forbidden..."

Zhang Yao slowly withdrew his palm, frowning tightly.

The person who can perform the soul-forbidden method is at least a foundation-building real person who is proficient in the soul-soul method, and it is usually to protect some kind of secret.

This shows that the question he just asked has touched on the key secret protected by Fa Jin. When Wu Sitang lost consciousness, Fa Jin automatically judged that he could not keep the secret and would blew himself up on the spot.

If it hadn't been for Zhang Yaoyan's quick hands to suppress it with his soul-shattering divine light, he might have alarmed the real person behind the scene.

"Behind these miners, there is actually a real person who established the foundation..."

Zhang Yao squinted his eyes, and thoughts flickered in his mind:

"Who could it be? The enemy of the GCC? The robbers from the outside world? Or the robber who is going to steal the ore?"

The enemies of the GCC are less likely, because there is no need to use such low-level methods.

As for the robbery of stealing ore, it has not happened for many years since the system was changed to a yearly gift; overall consideration, it is most likely that outsiders are the most likely.

"Unexpectedly, there was an unexpected harvest, and I caught two big fish at once."

Zhang Yao raised his head and glanced around the shed.

Those few male monks during the day feared and dreaded this young man, which should be related to the secret behind it, which shows that the insiders are far more than just individual miners.

"There is really a way to hide the truth from many supervisors and supervisors, and connect them secretly."

"Heh... that's right, I canceled their off-mining period for more than half a month and gave them this opportunity..."

Zhang Yao shook his head, thinking to himself:

"It seems that the next time will have to keep an eye on the movement of the black jade mining area."

"And among those supervisors, there may be hidden traitors hiding inside and out, and even the two supervisors, Lao Zhou and Lao Chen, may have problems!"

Sitting in Sui Yushan, while enjoying the preferential treatment, it is equivalent to shouldering the greatest responsibility.

Under normal circumstances: he only needs to ensure the production of the mining area, but if there are large-scale riots, casualties, or serious damage to the mine veins, he is still to blame.

In order to prevent this from happening, he must keep an eye on it from now on, and suppress it at critical moments.

"This is really interesting..."

Zhang Yao took a deep look at Wu Sifang and Hu Weiwei, turned around and left quietly, a cold light flashed in his eyes:

"I want to see who is behind this, who dares to play wild on Tai Sui's head!"

…………

More than a month has passed in a hurry.

Ever since he became aware of the potential conspiracy, Zhang Yao has been patrolling secretly, and gradually grasped a lot of clues.

However, he did not act rashly, nor did he tell anyone the news. Instead, he secretly investigated several major executives, and at the same time set up concealed formations in several key places in advance.

this day:

At the edge of the black jade mining area, thick white mist covered tens of feet, and thousands of miners were lying here and there.

"no, do not want……"

Hu Weiwei murmured unconsciously, showing her sharp little claws, and writhed non-stop, as if resisting something.

"Hahaha……"

Wu Sitang, who was lying not far from her, showed a hearty laugh, immersed in a sweet dream and couldn't extricate himself.

Zhang Yao stood with his hands behind his back, scanning the scenes in the white mist with his divine sense, observing the reactions of these people.

"Buzz!"

A moment later, the soul rosary buzzed and trembled, and a large cloud of white mist merged into it, and a ray of light flashed, and it fell into Zhang Yao's hands.

"The energy of soul thoughts has almost been collected."

Zhang Yao observed for a while, and found that a stream of air with a psychedelic color was rising in the soul rosary, almost filling the entire soul rosary, leaving only the last trace of space.

"Come again tomorrow at most, and the work of collecting the energy of the soul will be declared complete."

Zhang Yao quietly put away the soul rosary, gave a few words of admonishment as usual, and then drove away directly in the escape light.

After returning to the cave:

"Um……"

Sitting behind the desk, Zhang Yao took out the soul rosary and observed it carefully, silently.

After nearly two months of observation and exploration, he has basically understood the manufacturing method of the soul rosary, but with his current refining level, he still cannot imitate it.

Not only that, but he also discovered something more interesting:

"The spirit of soul thoughts collected through the soul rosary beads, as I speculated, has strong emotional stimulation and can be guided and refined by humans."

"It's just the soul rosary in my hand. I can't do this. It probably needs the master of the 'main bead'..."

When he thought of this, he suddenly had a judgment in his heart.

Since the soul rosary has this function, it must have some kind of hidden purpose.

Zhang Yao guessed that this spirit of soul thought might also be one of the keys for Tianbaolou, or the four major golden elixir forces to control the 'Boundary Breaker'.

From the very beginning of the cultivation method, exerting influence a little bit, gradually infiltrating, this process continues until the 'spirit of the soul' is injected, and it may be considered a great success.

"It seems that I will have to find a way to collect the soul energy I need for my future cultivation!"

With a decision in Zhang Yao's heart, he secretly alerted himself:

"This thing is a matter of life and death, and it must not be left in the hands of others."

The amount of soul energy needed to construct the 'Thousand Souls' Great Formation' is extremely large.

Collecting from Qi-refining monks requires tens of thousands of Qi-refining practitioners; if the target is replaced by mortals, it will take more than a million, and the time it takes is unimaginable.

Zhang Yao's original idea was to collect some of them himself, and get the rest from some evil cultivators by offering rewards and asking for purchases.

But now it seems that this kind of thinking is obviously not feasible, there may be vicious traps hidden in the items related to the soul, and you still have to do it yourself to rest assured.

"Um?"

At this moment, Zhang Yao seemed to have noticed something, frowned, and sneered in his heart:

"What a guts!"

"Relying on my level of cultivation higher than mine, in broad daylight, I dare to spy with divine thoughts!"

I have something to delay today, so I have to rush to finish it now, Qingyun strives to have time to make up for it.
