Longevity starts with choosing Hextech enhancement

Chapter 229 Starlight Baptism: Infant Jade

"Alas, what a pity! Why couldn't we kill this evildoer?"

Some wandering cultivators in the distance couldn't help but sigh with regret. In fact, they also hated Dai Tianrui very much.

These words actually touched Wen Suruo's heart, and she thought the same way.

At the same time, a hint of worry flashed in his eyes. Now that things have come to this, what should Fellow Daoist Jin Guang do?

If nothing unexpected happens, the Yuanying Zhenjun of the Dai family has already sensed something unusual.

Maybe in three days, or even tomorrow, he will arrive outside the ruins and wait for us at the exit.

She wanted to help think of a way out, but she couldn't do it no matter how hard she tried.

"Tsk, what a fool."

Some people secretly mocked Xiao Chen, who boasted of being clear-headed: "If you knew that he had a Yuanying great grandfather, you should have retreated in time."

"How dare you be so reckless as to think you can start a fight in the ruins."

"Don't you see that we are all tolerating this little ancestor?"

"Everyone else is enduring it silently, but you're the only one who likes to be a hero and show off your abilities. Now you're dumbfounded, right?"

As we all know, the gap between the great realms is like a chasm.

Especially after one’s cultivation reaches a high level, it will also involve the understanding of Tao.

Jindan cultivators need to "see clearly" the path they want to take in order to break through the bottleneck, but their normal practice is still limited to the mobilization of spiritual energy.

Yuanying Zhenjun can not only "see clearly", but has also begun to truly "comprehend" the great way.

The Taixu cloud light barrier in front of him naturally carries the Dai family ancestor's understanding of the Tao, which can never be destroyed by a Jindan cultivator.

Therefore, in the eyes of all onlookers, the matter ended there.

Next it was the Dai family’s turn to retaliate.

"Hey, what is he going to do?"

Some casual cultivators suddenly saw that Xiao Chen actually walked towards the Taixu Cloud Light Barrier, and it seemed that he had not given up yet.

Immediately afterwards, he was seen using the Fire Condensing Palm again against the translucent barrier.

A large amount of flames erupted, ruthlessly destroying the surrounding soil and rocks.

However, the barrier itself only produced extremely weak and almost imperceptible shaking, and the whole thing remained safe and sound.

"It's just a reserved spell, but it has such power. It seems that it's still unrealistic to fight against opponents of higher levels."

The reason why Xiao Chen did not choose to use the mechanical flying claw to catch Dai Tianrui at the first time.

This is because he wanted to take this opportunity to test the gap between himself and Yuanying Zhenjun. After all, this is a rare actual combat.

You know, just now he used this new magic to successfully defeat the enemy with a smaller force, and killed five true disciples of the Yinshi Sect and more than ten refined corpses.

This means that he has now reached the pinnacle of the Golden Core realm and even possesses power that exceeds the upper limit of the Golden Core realm.

Unfortunately, I finally discovered that the higher realm is indeed difficult to surpass.

"Hahaha, you're overestimating yourself!"

Dai Tianrui couldn't stop laughing inside the barrier: "What do you want to do? Huh?"

"This young master advises you to face reality and stop daydreaming here."

"Hey, why did you raise your hand again? Are you still not giving up?"

He watched Xiao Chen mobilize his true energy to accumulate flames again, and immediately took a step forward to get closer to the barrier: "Come on, come on, let me get closer to you, and hit you here!"

"Can you hurt even a hair of mine?"

The people in the distance couldn't understand what was going on.

In fact, the reason is very simple. Xiao Chen just plans to use fire to block the sight of other cultivators.

Originally, the effect of doing this might not be particularly good, after all, the flames cannot enter the inside of the barrier.

However, he soon saw that Dai Tianrui actually took the initiative to stick to the barrier and coordinated with his movements very well.

Hiss~, if I don’t take this opportunity, it would be a waste of this God-given opportunity.

Of course Xiao Chen would not hesitate and decisively struck out with a palm.

At the same time, he activated the mechanical flying claws hidden in his sleeves.

"Squeak!"

Under the cover of the roar, a sound of mechanical operation was heard that only he could hear.

"Crack~!"

The Taixu cloud light barrier shattered with a sound, and the mechanical flying claw in the front instantly grabbed Dai Tianrui's head.

"Click~!"

Immediately afterwards, a large human-shaped hole appeared on the entire barrier, and it completely collapsed in the next moment.

Because the distance was close enough, the flying rope was returned to Xiao Chen's hand in less than a breath.

At the same time, the frontmost robotic arm clenched its claws into fists and quickly punched the direction where Dai Tianrui's head was.

But this was obviously no longer necessary, because in the process of breaking through the barrier, his entire body had actually turned into plasma.

"Hey, there's actually indirect damage. It's not mentioned in the Hextech article."

Xiao Chen was originally prepared to finish off the opponent, but he didn't expect that it would end so suddenly.

Flames swept across the sky, completely blocking vision and consciousness.

However, although the monks on the periphery could not see anything clearly, they heard the sound of the barrier breaking and their hearts skipped a beat.

What’s going on? No way.
An extremely crazy idea came into their minds.

Everyone opened their eyes wide and stared at the center of the fire, not daring to blink even once.

Some monks subconsciously took a step forward, trying to see more clearly, and some monks were so focused that they even forgot to breathe.

As the flames gradually dissipated.

The originally translucent barrier, along with Dai Tianrui himself, disappeared without a trace.

Xiao Chen stood there with a calm expression, his right hand extended forward, twisting a storage ring between his fingertips.

A pool of fresh blood flowed in front of him, making a sizzling sound on the scorching ground.

Judging from the broken pieces of his spiritual robe, it was none other than Dai Tianrui!
"Master Dai, dead?"

Some people couldn't believe it and murmured to themselves.

"Well, it's good that this bastard died."

Someone spoke frankly, but before speaking, he wisely took out his hat to cover his face: "Well done!"

Some people followed suit, covering their faces as well, laughing and echoing: "The beasts of the Yinshi Sect are all dead. This is karma, this is karma!"

"Good deeds will be rewarded and evil deeds will be punished. They have done so many evil things and finally they are getting their retribution!"

……

For a moment, the cheers and applause of the wandering cultivators were heard one after another.

However, they were in high spirits, while several late Jindan cultivators present were stunned where they were, seeming out of place with the crowd.

Wen Suruo opened her beautiful big eyes, her mind was blank.

The elder of Wuleiguan accidentally pulled out his own beard without realizing it.

The left protector of the Fubing Sect was filled with emotion at the same time. He could understand this feeling very well, but because of his status, he could not express it on the spot.

At the same time, a young man's heart was quietly broken.

A quarter of an hour ago, Xiang Yiyang secretly made up his mind to catch up with Xiao Chen's pace and strive to catch up with and surpass him.

How the hell is this possible!!!
Sometimes, ignorance is bliss.

The more you know, the easier it is to feel awe.

Xiang Yiyang now has only one question in his mind: "How is this possible?"

As a fellow Jindan, he felt like a fake.

But the problem is that from his perspective, the second palm that Xiao Chen just used didn't seem to be much stronger than the first palm.

Why are the final results so different?
Could it be that! ! !
Xiang Yiyang suddenly realized that the only possible explanation was:
Xiao Chen has already started to comprehend the great way of fire in advance!

"Has he taken that step?"

As a cultivator in the late Jindan stage, especially a cultivator like Wen Suruo who came from a large sect, he was very clear about the huge difference between Yuanying and Jindan.

So she immediately thought of this and couldn't help but feel awe.

Once a cultivator comprehends the great Dao, the journey from Golden Elixir to Nascent Soul may not be as simple as a natural process, but it can be said to be a smooth journey!
In other words, the fellow Daoist Jin Guang in front of him has already stepped half a foot into the Nascent Soul stage.

Therefore, the magic spells he used also contained the understanding of the Great Dao, which enabled him to defeat the Taixu Cloud Light Barrier.

"Oh, how confused!"

Elder Wu Lei Guan Xing Fa couldn't help but sigh: "Since you have already taken this step, why not wait until the infant is formed before taking action?"

"Hi~!"

The left protector took a deep breath and said, "If we can successfully survive this calamity, I'm afraid that within a few years there will be another Yuanying Zhenjun who specializes in fire magic."

A thought flashed through his mind, and he remembered the special spiritual sword that the leader had given him.

However, since Tianxing Island was opened for the first time, all restrictions were in place.

He tried for a long time, but no matter how he mobilized his true energy, the spirit sword showed no reaction. He could only accept this fact helplessly.

The whereabouts of True Lord Fu Bing are unknown, and he may not be in the Lightless Sea at this time.

If we fail to notify the other party in advance to come and rescue us, it will definitely be too late when the ruins are over.

"how so!"

On the other side, Wen Suruo looked at the sound transmission talisman that had burned out on the spot, and her heart sank.

She had just thought of using the capital of winning over a future Yuanying Zhenjun to persuade the sect to come forward to rescue people.

But unexpectedly, the sound transmission talisman she got from the Supreme Elder became ineffective.

"Boom!"

Another altar made a loud noise and then split in two.

Xiao Chen was not like them, standing there with mixed feelings or worries.

After dealing with the Yinshi Sect, he put away his storage ring and then began to activate different altars one by one.

Since he had obtained all the orbs before, he quickly opened all twelve altars.

It’s a bit of a pity that two of the altars are filled with spiritual fruits, two altars are filled with elixirs, and one is filled with a refined special spiritual weapon.

After being washed away by the long years, everything turned into residue.

Fortunately, the rest of the items in the altar were intact. In addition to the Earth Mother Heavy Marrow Jade obtained at the beginning, there were still six treasures.

They are the Silver-back Sky Spider Silk, the Turtle Embracing the Moon Jade, the Blue Luan Burning Feather Ashes, and three inheritance jade slips.

The first three are all fourth-level spiritual objects.

The silver-back spider is originally a third-level monster. Only a very small number of them have cultivated for thousands of years and achieved the Nascent Soul stage can be called celestial spiders.

The spiritual silk it spits out is extremely flexible and can be used to refine top-level spiritual clothing.

The Moon-Baolong Turtle is also a third-level spiritual beast. It crawls out at night, lies on a fixed stone and inhales and exhales the moonlight, hence its name.

If the stone happens to be a piece of jade, and turtles have a long lifespan, the moonlight will also be contaminated in the jade.

If two or three Moon-Embracing Turtles choose the same piece of jade and cultivate for a total of over two thousand years, they can form a piece of Moon-Embracing Turtle Jade. This jade is a top-tier material for forming a formation. Placed at the center of the formation, it can channel the power of the stars and moon to stabilize the formation.

As for the last item, the ashes of the burned oriole feathers, it has a very important origin.

It is rumored that the Qingli has the blood of the divine bird Qingluan. When it breaks through the Nascent Soul stage, its body will be burned by spiritual fire, and the fallen feathers will be burned into ashes.

Therefore, within the embers, there is a trace of the true meaning of fire.

If a monk can collect the embers in time before they are blown away by the wind, he will have the opportunity to comprehend the great way of fire.

As for the three jade slips, Xiao Chen did not use them on the spot, but put them away for the time being.

"Om~!"

A loud buzzing sound was heard, and as the last altar was fully unfolded, the twelve beams of light shooting up into the sky grew brighter.

They even passed through Tianxing Island and pointed directly at the sky, jointly guiding the power of the stars to descend here.

The monks from several major forces who stayed outside the island also saw this dazzling scene at the same time.

"The inheritance must have been opened!"

Someone shouted, stood up and ran to the observatory.

Immediately, a large number of monks were reminded and rushed forward one after another.

However, everyone tacitly avoided the altar where Xiao Chen was and chose the other eleven steps.

"oops!"

"Ouch!"

"It hurts to death!"

Many wandering cultivators rushed forward, but except for a few, the rest all flew backwards the moment they stepped onto the stairs and fell outside the observatory.

Obviously, not everyone can be on stage.

"what 's wrong?"

"Junior brother, how come you're okay?"

"Why can't I go up? What's wrong?"

Everyone looked at the monks who had successfully stood on the stairs with bewildered expressions.

Because although there are only seven of them, there are men and women, old and young, and even a cultivator in the early stage of Jindan.

This is strange, what rules are at work?
Everyone looked at each other, all confused.

Fortunately, there are many people, and there are always smarter ones.

Wen Suruo looked at her junior sister on the stairs and immediately understood something: "Shanshan, throw me a Tianxing Order."

Upon hearing this, the other party immediately took out a glowing token and threw it down.

She caught it and took another step forward. Sure enough, this time everything went smoothly and she was not blocked by any restrictions.

"What? You even want the Heavenly Star Order!"

A large number of independent cultivators were all dumbfounded. They didn't expect that there would be such a restriction.

There are not many people who are proficient in that thing, and there are only a few in total.

Some of them even chose to make deals with the Tianyin Sect or the Wulei Temple, so now they can only stare blankly at the several major forces as they climb the stairs.

“So that’s where it’s used.”

Xiao Chen naturally didn't have to worry about this. He stepped onto the stage and reached the top of the observatory smoothly.

The top of the platform is also quite wide, about a hundred feet square.

It is divided into twelve different areas according to different steps.

At this time, under the influence of the formation, the majestic power of the stars descended from the sky and was evenly distributed in every area.

Without the monk having to make any movement, the surrounding inscriptions refined it into the purest star power.

Then, along with the breath, it drilled into the monk's body.
.
There are a total of thirty-six Heavenly Star Orders in the ruins. Originally, there should be three people in each area who receive the starlight baptism.

However, due to his previous ferocity, Xiao Chen was the only one on his side.

Therefore, he enjoyed three times the power of the stars alone, and soon felt as if his body was filled up.

However, there is still a constant stream of starlight surrounding it.

It feels like your stomach is full but your mouth can’t stop eating and drinking.

"That's enough, let's go our separate ways."

Xiao Chen looked at the four people standing in the same area not far away, so that the power of the stars was not enough to be distributed. He was quite speechless.

However, the flashing inscriptions around were still operating according to the established rules.

At the same time, there was a restriction behind him that closed the stairs, preventing the power of the stars from escaping while also blocking his retreat.

Those who are suffering from drought will die of drought, and those who are suffering from floods will die of floods.

"No, I can't hold on any longer. Come and inherit the secret method to save me."

Xiao Chen estimated that this process would not be over for a while, and the surrounding restrictions could also serve as a separation and protection.

So he decisively took out a jade slip, pressed it on his forehead and read the message inside.

The moment his spiritual consciousness was injected into the jade slip, he seemed to have returned to many years ago.

In front of him was an old man with white hair and grey beard, standing in front of the observatory with his hands behind his back. Around him were many monks in unfamiliar attire, busy carving inscriptions.

Xiao Chen even heard real shouting in his ears.

"Everyone, pay attention and carve carefully. This is the last and most important batch of Chengxing Jade. Anyone who makes a mistake will be sentenced to ten years of solitary confinement."

"The no-fly zone laws have been deployed and can be activated for testing at any time."

"Elder, we're still short of one set of sword and shield puppets. Should we send someone to urge them?"

……

The scene before my eyes seemed to have lasted for a whole day and night.

However, judging from the feeling of the crowded star power in his body, it seemed like only a quarter of an hour had passed.

During this period, Xiao Chen witnessed the layers of restrictions and inscriptions set up on the observatory.

I heard the commands for dispatching various things throughout the ruins.

Afterwards, the various images and sounds gradually faded away.

Only the old man remained standing, speaking slowly and calmly, "The great changes in the world are beyond human control. I only hope that my way will flourish and my law will continue."

At the same time, a message unfolded in Xiao Chen's sea of ​​consciousness.

It turns out that Tianxing Island was built by the Tianxing Sect in ancient times. It was used to communicate with the stars in the sky and receive the baptism of starlight.

At that time, the spiritual energy between heaven and earth was particularly rich, so it could support such a large-scale event.

But starting from one day, the concentration of spiritual energy in the entire world of immortal cultivation began to decrease inexplicably, and this situation lasted for several years.

After many unsuccessful searches, the Tianxing Sect had no choice but to make preparations early, abandoning the island and intentionally sealing it up as a relic.

"Tianxing Sect?"

Xiao Chen recalled carefully and realized that he had never heard of this sect before.

If nothing unexpected happens, it is likely to have disappeared in the long history.

The so-called prosperity of my way and the continuation of my legal tradition ultimately became a luxury.

Then the old man spoke again: "Just in case, I am leaving this inheritance to those who are destined to receive it."

Then, a traditional technique called "The Secret Method of Sensing the Spirits of the Zhoutian Stars" appeared in Xiao Chen's sea of ​​consciousness.

This technique is undoubtedly a secret technique inherited from the heavenly level.

The emphasis is on using the power of the surrounding stars to help one's own cultivation, condense star pills, form star infants, and finally transform into gods with the stars.

"Hey, why don't you leave a yellow-level technique? Who do you expect to practice a heaven-level technique?"

Xiao Chen looked at the top secret method that directly led to the transformation into a god, feeling quite amused and helpless.

Logically speaking, obtaining such a top-notch inheritance is a great opportunity, but he has chosen to take another route.

At the same time, he also understood that the other two jade slips also contained the top secret teachings that led directly to the transformation into a god.

The Tianxing Sect left behind many martial arts techniques in the ruins, including some yellow-level and even black-level martial arts techniques stored separately in the previous hut, in order to preserve the Taoist tradition.

I hope that future generations can use these inheritances to revive and even rebuild the Tianxing Sect.

"Alright, it's a heavenly inheritance after all. Even if I don't practice it, I can still use it to increase my knowledge."

Xiao Chen composed himself and read the contents of "The Secret Method of Sensing the Spirits of the Zhoutian Stars", wanting to see if there was any method that could relieve the power of the stars.

Such a major event as the Starlight Baptism is naturally recorded in the tradition.

The reason for doing this is that the Tianxing Sect has developed a special secret method that uses the power of the stars to condense star cores in the Shenting acupoint.

Its main function is to greatly increase the speed of practicing the sect's exercises.

At the same time, it can also enhance the spiritual awareness of the monks.

The secret method itself is not difficult. The main difficulty lies in the fact that condensing the star core requires extremely huge star power, which ordinary cultivators cannot obtain at all.

Even in the Tianxing Sect, only true disciples and a few inner disciples with outstanding performance are eligible to receive the Starlight Baptism once every ten years.

"Ah, why is it a ground-level method?"

Xiao Chen read it through and found the content complicated and difficult to understand.

"Do you have any misunderstanding about 'not difficult'?"

He felt the star power in his body becoming increasingly unsustainable, so he took out a purple gold Bodhi from his storage ring and swallowed it in one gulp.

After all, this is a fourth-level spiritual fruit, and its effect is indeed immediate.

It took only a few breaths of time, and when Xiao Chen reviewed the content of the method, he immediately felt that his mind was opened, and he understood many things at a glance.

Even for some things that you don’t quite understand, there are certain ideas behind them. You can understand them with just a little thought.

At the same time, he could even do two things at once, starting to try to practice while studying the few things that he didn't understand.

Of course, such an attempt would inevitably lead to failure in cultivation, waste some of the star power in the body, and cause some minor injuries.

But it doesn’t matter, Xiao Chen is just feeling that the power of the stars is not enough.

As for injuries, there is no need to worry, as his "Rejuvenation Sutra" can heal injuries and is also blessed by Hextech.

Such a minor injury can be recovered in an instant.

Half an hour later, he successfully condensed a simple star core in the Shenting acupoint.

Immediately afterwards, Xiao Chen mobilized his spiritual consciousness to enter the core of the star, and immediately felt the faint but real nourishing effect.

From now on, he can use the star core to continuously nourish his spiritual consciousness.

This process will last for several months, and will eventually increase the strength of spiritual consciousness by 50% to 100% depending on the qualifications of the cultivator.

"Om~!"

The observatory began to roar again, and the spiritual energy stored in the twelve altars had just been used up.

The pillar of light that reached the sky flickered a few times, and then completely disappeared, and the surrounding restrictions also dissipated.

In the center of the observatory, another tray rose up, on which lay a dark purple jade.

Xiao Chen, who had just received the inherited memory, immediately recognized it as the Infant Transformation Jade.

The effect is very simple. If it is refined into the Dantian, it can increase the success rate of forming a baby by 10%.
