Start cultivating immortals from full talent

Chapter 110: The Middle Stage of Foundation Building (Thanks to Alliance Leader Li Xuanmeng!)
"Thirteenth level of Evergreen Technique."

Ning Daoran carefully felt the vastness of the magic power in his body, which was long and profound.

The Art of Evergreen is indeed a miraculous skill, it is solid and full of profound knowledge.

Unfortunately, his ninth-grade mixed spiritual roots were like a mountain blocking his path to immortality, and every breakthrough after building his foundation was extremely difficult.

At this time, Ning Daoran's realm was infinitely close to the late stage of the initial foundation building stage.

It can be called "the great perfection of the initial stage of foundation building" or "the half-step to the middle stage of foundation building".

He is not in a hurry. He established his foundation at the age of forty and is now fifty-six years old.

He had only stayed in the initial stage of foundation building for sixteen years, which was normal for a cultivator in the foundation building stage.

Throughout the ages, the ages of many great cultivators who established their foundation and advanced to the Golden Core stage were basically between eighty and one hundred and forty years old.

An old man like Gong Yangyan, who formed the golden elixir at the age of 180, is an anomaly, while the sect leader Jiang Yu formed the golden elixir at the age of 100, which is just at the threshold of achieving the golden elixir at the age of 100.

Ning Daoran knew that he was dull and could not compare with his senior sister. If he proceeded step by step, he would have the best chance of achieving Dan formation at around 150 years old.

……

In the early morning, the Qiongbi Peak was shrouded in mist.

Ning Daoran walked out of the small building and came to the fish pond in the backyard.

"Little Heizi!"

"Zhizhi~~~"

After a tail spin in the water, most of the black fish's head floated out of the water, looking like it was ready to take orders.

Ning Daoran secretly admired the strong desire to survive.

"Your cultivation is a little slow."

He frowned: "Old Deer has been building his foundation for several years. What are you thinking about? Do you think it's fun to feed you with delicious food and drinks?"

"Squeak!"

Little Heizi was so frightened that his soul was scared to death. The scales on his body stood up and he shouted loudly, saying that he would work harder to practice.

"Humph!"

Ning Daoran snorted coldly, raised his hand and drew out the Autumn Water Sword, and with a flash of the sword, he chopped off a piece of monster meat weighing at least 50 kilograms from the storage bag.

There are even some dragon scales on this piece of monster meat.

"then!"

The monster meat with dragon scales flew out, and Xiao Heizi immediately opened his mouth wide and swallowed it in one gulp.

In an instant, Xiao Heizi's eyes widened. The meat tasted so delicious, it was the best thing he had ever eaten in his life.

"This is the black dragon meat from the late stage of foundation building."

Ning Daoran patted the storage bag lightly and said, "Except for the head, the entire body of this black dragon is with me. I will feed you a piece of black dragon meat every few days."

His smile gradually faded, his eyes turned hostile, and he said with a smile: "If you still don't show any signs of advancing after eating the whole black dragon, then come to the table."

"Squeaky~~~"

Little Blackie was so frightened that he was shaking all over, almost standing up in the water, spinning madly, indicating that he would definitely break through as soon as possible.

"Humph!"

Ning Daoran smiled and turned to look after Lingmi.

The new crop of purple jade rice seedlings has grown.

Ning Daoran rolled up his sleeves, carried a hoe, put a yoke for plowing on the neck of a big stupid deer, held a brand new plow in his arms, and set off with his elder brother.

"Chen Weimo!"

Ning Daoran turned around and said loudly, "Lao Lu and I are going to plant rice. Come over at noon to bring us food and roast two chickens. Don't eat bean sticks for lunch today. I'm going to vomit!"

"I know, uncle!"

Chen Weimo replied with a smile and quickly went to prepare the ingredients.

On the top of Qiongbi Peak, the busy farming work began.

Huang Shan, Ma Quanyou, Qin Xiang and others also led their tribesmen to start planting rice. Soon, the rice seedlings in several sacred fields on the Qiongbi Peak were like smoke, swaying in the wind, which was refreshing.

……

A fulfilling day has passed.

Late at night, in a secret room twenty feet underground, Ning Daoran was holding a pile of books on formations that he had "picked up" from a stall at the Huanglong Market, with a look of hope on his face, hoping to research out something different.

In the dead of night.

"Om..."

Suddenly, a ripple came from the formation restriction of the Small Cloud Mist Formation buried underground, which was the result of the fluctuation of the formation's power.

"what happened?"

Ning Daoran frowned and spread out his spiritual sense to scan around.

I immediately discovered the situation.

Someone is digging a tunnel under the Qiongbi Peak. What is he trying to do?!

Not long after, the thin restriction under the small cloud and mist formation was actually broken, followed by a strong scent of spiritual insects.

It is a spiritual insect about the size of a fist, with golden patterns all over its body.

It actually gnawed a hole in the underground formation restriction and opened a hole in Ning Daoran's room.

How can this be possible? Digging a hole in your home?
Ning Daoran started the breath-concealing technique, not revealing even a trace of breath.

The spirit insect quickly gnawed away at the wall.

At this time, Ning Daoran also saw the true face of this spiritual insect.

It is a jade mole cricket, a spiritual insect ranked more than 3,000 on the list of ten thousand insects.

It has little effect, but is good at drilling holes in the ground, and has a certain inhibitory effect on low-level formations and prohibitions.

"Squeak!"

The Jade Mole Cricket saw Ning Daoran at first sight.

Immediately afterwards, a figure followed behind the Jade Cricket, rushed in covered in dust and exuding a demonic aura.

"what!?"

The man was horrified and looked at the room in front of him with a little bit of disbelief.

"Om-"

In a flash, the spear flashed continuously! The first shot split the Jade Cricket that pounced on it into two, and the second shot directly pierced the heart of the demon who broke into his room.

Soul search!

"Hiss~~~"

Wisps of soul gathered and took on the appearance of the person who had just died, his eyes filled with confusion and regret.

The excavation route should not have passed through Qiongbi Peak. How could he have thought that he could actually dig out a living person at a depth of twenty feet underground?
What normal person lives so deep underground?

"Who are you?" Ning Daoran began to search his soul and interrogate him.

"My name is Yang Chunbo, a disciple of Tiansha Sect..."

The other person's soul had very heavy whites in his eyes, and was staggering, telling everything he knew.

Soon, Ning Daoran learned that the other party was an inner disciple of the Tiansha Sect, who was at the ninth level of Qi Refining.

He is good at breath-concealing and divine movement, and has always been responsible for high-risk tasks such as espionage and undercover work in the sect.

This person volunteered and told the deputy sect leader that he could sneak into the Chaos Sect without anyone noticing and find out the situation underground in the Chaos Sect.

As for why the Tiansha Sect sent people to the Chaos Sect to gather information, it was simply because they were planning to take action against the Chaos Sect.

Combined with some of the previous details.

Ouyang Kun, the young master of Tiansha Sect, disguises himself as a casual cultivator "Fang Ye" to explore the Yinsha land, searching for the treasures in the Yinsha land.

Even the leader of the Qingyi Society is actually a demon cultivator from the Tiansha Sect.

In addition, Lin Chi of the Soul-Devouring Cult went on a killing spree in the Cangnan Secret Realm, etc.

Various signs indicate that the infiltration of the evil ways did not happen overnight; they may have started planning this many years ago.

This matter needs to be told to Jiang Yu.

……

late at night.

Zixiao Peak, Jiang Yu Cave.

"Junior brother, have some tea."

Jiang Yu made tea herself and sat opposite Ning Daoran.

She glanced at the corpse of the demon sect disciple not far away and said, "In the middle of the night, you sneaked into my Chaos Sect from underground. Are you trying to find the location of the underground array of the Tiangang Hundred Fierce Array in the inner mountain and find the weakness of the Tiangang Hundred Fierce Array?"

"Senior sister, you have great insights."

Ning Daoran exclaimed: "He saw the key to the problem at a glance, unlike the old deer. I reminded him many times but he still couldn't figure out what was going on."

"Ow~~~"

On the side, the big stupid deer nudged him with its head, indicating that he had actually guessed a little bit.

Jiang Yu smiled.

"Junior brother, what are you doing living twenty feet underground?" she suddenly asked.

Ning Daoran frowned: "Senior sister, don't ask about these irrelevant things, let's talk about serious matters."

"Ah."

Jiang Yu sat upright and said with a smile: "In fact, I have learned a lot of the tricks of the Qingzhou Demon Sect over the years, and naturally I also know the ambitions of the Demon Sect, especially the Soul Devouring Sect.

This old soul-devouring demon has long been dissatisfied with the current situation and wants to break the balance and let the demons take over Qingzhou. Senior sister has been keeping an eye on this matter, so junior brother does not need to pay too much attention to it. "

She narrowed her beautiful eyes and said, "Even if the demons really attack, the Chaos Sect, the Star Moon Pavilion, the Steel Gate Sect and other sects will join forces to fight back and have the power to protect themselves."

"It turns out that Senior Sister had already made plans."

Ning Daoran was a little embarrassed: "It seems that I was worrying too much."

"The information provided by Junior Brother is also very useful. I can roughly guess the time when the Demonic Path will move south."

Jiang Yu's eyes were filled with worry: "The Qingzhou Demon Sect is heading south, and the Fenhai Sect in the north will be the first to be affected. I wonder if the old monster Tianhai can turn the tide..."

After that, Jiang Yu did not reveal any further information.

There is no need for Ning Daoran, the foundation-building elder, to know too much about the affairs of the upper level.

The demons were planning to invade, so Ning Daoran no longer cared about it.

……

On the Qiongbi Peak, a man and a deer still live a happy life of growing spiritual rice and practicing steadily.

Time flies, and four years have passed in a flash.

This year, Ning Daoran was sixty years old and had been building his foundation for twenty years.

Inside Lingpu Cave.

He sighed deeply. There is no time limit for practicing cultivation. Time passed by too quickly, making him feel a little sad.

At this point, the accumulated time for intensive cultivation has reached more than 50,000. It is time to once again impact the level of Changqing Jue!
"Old Deer, I want to practice."

He shouted, "Go and loosen the soil for the Tianyuan fruit tree."

"Ow~~~"

The big stupid deer ran away happily.

Ning Daoran sat cross-legged on the bare round tree root in front of the wooden house. He slowly closed his eyes and poured all his time into the Changqing Jue.

Suddenly his body sank, as if he had fallen into a deep forest.

[In the 14,000th year, you merged with the forest. Sitting under a tree, you were like an old tree. The birds and beasts in the mountains regarded you as nothing. However, your practice of the Changqing Jue once again came to a halt.]

[You know that you need time to accumulate, so don’t be arrogant or impatient]

[In the 33400th year, an old monster in the Nascent Soul stage passed by and found you practicing in the forest. He shouted, "The thirteenth level of the Evergreen Technique, this kid must not be allowed to stay" and started to hunt you down.]

[You transformed into a tree root, burrowing deep into the earth, and finally managed to escape with your life]

[In the 51,300th year, the Nascent Soul monster who had chased you had already returned to dust. You came to his sect, smashed the ancestral hall into pieces, and then transformed into a vigorous ancient tree that towered into the sky, and killed all of his disciples.]

[You feel extremely happy in your heart, and the problem of Changqing Jue that has puzzled you for tens of thousands of years is solved.]

[Eternal Youth Technique. Earth Rank Top Grade (14th Level)]

【Foundation Building (Mid-term)】

[Time remaining for intensive cultivation: 6,422 years]

……

Ning Daoran slowly opened his eyes, and suddenly a vast amount of magical power surged into his body!
Finally, I have been promoted to the middle stage of foundation building!
