Practice begins with immortality

After flying for about half an hour, they arrived at the entrance of a cave.

"Next, please ask Fellow Daoist Youhuo to break this restriction." Xuan Lingzi said.

As soon as she finished speaking, the old woman raised her hand slightly, and then a gray-white flame condensed in front of her. Although this gray-white spiritual fire was a flame, it gave people a cold feeling.

"Legend has it that there is a strange fire in this world called the Netherworld Ghost Flame. It is a Yin evil fire that corrodes everything. It is said that an ancient strong man saw the Netherworld Ghost Flame and created a method based on his feelings to cultivate a kind of Yin ghost fire. And Fellow Daoist Youhuo got a trace of this Yin ghost fire when he was young. After years of cultivation, he also has a trace of corrosive power. When faced with this kind of restriction, he can corrode and destroy it." Xuan Lingzi said to everyone, and everyone was also amazed.

A quarter of an hour later, with a sound of shattering, the restriction at the entrance of the cave was broken.

"This restriction is a bit weak for a Jindan-level expert. It doesn't seem like a Jindan-level restriction." The old woman said with some doubt.

"It seems that this Jindan Zhenren is probably not very powerful, and his cultivation is only at the early stage of Jindan. But no matter what, he is still a Jindan Zhenren, and he must have some Jindan cultivation techniques. Maybe I can even obtain the Jindan essence he left behind, and after refining it, I can become a Jiadan cultivator."

Fake Dan cultivators are far more powerful than those who have reached the Perfect Foundation Establishment stage, but weaker than true Jin Dan cultivators. They are unable to improve their cultivation, but their lifespan is the same as that of Jin Dan cultivators. This presents a considerable temptation for many. Furthermore, the world of immortal cultivation is filled with countless great skills and secret techniques, so there must be ways to compensate for any deficiencies. At the very least, it can extend one's lifespan. By then possessing a body of a stronger aptitude, cultivating anew, and relying on their existing vision, one might even be able to break through to the Jin Dan stage or even reach a higher level.

Then everyone entered the cave one after another.

As time passed, they gradually went deeper into the cave, and most of the restrictions they encountered along the way were broken by the will-o'-the-wisp fire. Occasionally, there were some other obstacles, but they were also broken by everyone's combined efforts.

"I'm afraid the owner of this cave is not a good person. There are actually Yin corpses guarding the cave." Qi Yun said after killing a foundation-building Yin corpse with a sword.

"The last barrier should be ahead. After breaking it, we can obtain the treasure left by the owner of this cave."

"Please, Daoist Youhuo, take action!"

"Okay, but I'll take an extra portion when we distribute the food."

"Natural nature."

Then the old woman released her will-o'-the-wisp again, but this time the will-o'-the-wisp that had always been effective had no effect.

"Hmm? Disciple, come and help me." Seeing this, Youhuo called Sun Mei to help her.

Afterwards, the master and disciple worked together. With the woman's help, Youhuo split the will-o'-the-wisp fire into four, each burning the key points of the restriction.

Half a minute passed, and with a sound of breaking, the restriction was directly broken.

"It's done!" Upon seeing this, everyone immediately passed through the restriction and came to an open stone chamber. In the center of the stone chamber was a coffin.

"It seems that this is the place where the Jindan monk painted, and the origin of the Jindan is inside this coffin." Before he finished speaking, everyone retreated and dispersed, their eyes full of vigilance.

"There are five people here, but there is only one golden elixir origin!" I don't know who said this, and then everyone mobilized their spiritual power, ready to fight each other at any time.

"Fellow Daoist Qi and Fellow Daoist Huang, why don't you help me? I'm willing to swear a vow to my inner demon. Once I refine this golden elixir and become a false elixir cultivator, I will definitely help you two break through." Shi Hun shouted to Qi Yun and Wang Bai. Hearing this, Qi Yun gritted his teeth and stood by Shi Hun, while Wang Bai immediately transformed into a flash of light and left the tomb.

Seeing Wang Bo leave, Shi Hun began to be wary of Xuan Lingzi, but Xuan Lingzi was nowhere to be found.

"Leaving? You seem to have some self-awareness, saving me the trouble." Then, Shi Hun attacked Youhuo. With his advantage in the cultivation of the Dharma body, he was able to fight against the cultivator who had reached the perfection of the foundation building. Qi Yun faced Sun Mei.

"Want to attack me? Let's see if you have what it takes!" Seeing this, Youhuo no longer held back and activated his magic power to transform the cold ghost fire into a skull and attack Shi Hun. The two sides began to fight.

Half an hour later, the old woman's chest collapsed, and she collapsed to the ground, seemingly near death. Shi Hun wasn't much better off, either. Wounds covered his body, and his face was purple, clearly poisoned. If it weren't for his physical training, he would have died by now. Qi Yun, on the other side, had also been poisoned. Sun Mei, the disciple of the Ghost Fire, surely possessed ghost fire? But she, too, was injured by Qi Yun's sword energy, which severely damaged her internal organs. If it weren't for the strong vitality of a Foundation Establishment cultivator, she would have died long ago.

"Looks like I'm the final winner!" Shi Hun stood up, ready to finish off the three. But just then, a pair of hands brimming with black energy pierced his chest, devouring his entire essence, blood, and soul. The owner of these hands was none other than the previously vanished Xuan Lingzi.

"This, this is a ghost technique. Who are you?" Youhuo asked weakly.

"My name is Mo Ling." Xuan Lingzi, no, Mo Ling said with a sinister smile.

"So that's how it is. This is simply a trap." Youhuo said with a wry smile. He had vaguely felt that something was wrong at the beginning, but he was still greedy and ended up like this today.

"Although one Foundation Establishment cultivator escaped, the souls, blood, and flesh of four more are more than enough for me to recover," the demon spirit said with a strange laugh. Although he had relied on the cicada demon and another ghost dao golden elixir to resist the heavenly thunder, he was still injured by the heavenly tribulation, damaging his essence. Over the years, he had continuously devoured the souls, essence, and blood of cultivators to repair his injuries. Now, he was able to devour the souls, blood, and flesh of two cultivators equivalent to those at the perfect stage of Foundation Establishment in one fell swoop. Together with the other two Foundation Establishment cultivators, this was enough to heal the cracks in his ghost elixir.

Then, the demon spirit opened its mouth and sucked, directly devouring the souls, blood and flesh of the remaining three people. When he was about to leave here to digest these things and recover from his injuries, a human voice was heard.

"My fellow Daoist, you have a vicious mind, but I'm afraid it won't be so easy for you to leave today." The person who came was Wang Bai.
