Cultivating Immortality in a World of Chaos - Chapter 743

[Chapter 741: The Art of Avoiding Disaster]

“Even so, the Yuanshen Zhenxian is only a human immortal, not as good as an earthly immortal like me…”

Fang Xi curled his lips and looked at the book “The Secret Method of Transforming Three Corpses into Infants” again.

After comprehending it, he roughly understood its essence.

The essence of this secret method is to use rare treasures and elixirs such as the ‘Three Corpses Jade’ and the ‘Tian Yin Pill’ to try to transform one’s own Nascent Soul when one has achieved perfection in returning to the void.

The original Return to Void Perfection Infant was refined into the ‘Three Corpses Infant’!
This ‘Three Corpses Infant’ has the characteristics of semi-substantiation. If you practice this secret method and then attack the bottleneck of fusion, it will naturally reduce the difficulty of the bottleneck by half.

“But it is only useful for breaking through bottlenecks… After the breakthrough, the great heavenly tribulation of the fusion, the inner demon tribulation, etc., have no effect at all…”

“If you are not fully prepared, even if you achieve fusion, you will still be struck to death by lightning!”

“But looking at Old Monster Qiao’s appearance, if he doesn’t have this secret technique, he won’t even be able to break through the bottleneck of fusion…”

Fang Xi silently comprehended the secret method in the Earthly Immortal Realm, and then looked through the storage bag of Old Monster Qiao, and found that this person had been consciously collecting the main materials for refining the “Tian Yin Pill”.

By now, about 60 to 70 percent have been collected.

“If it is refined and combined with the secret method, it should be able to sell for a lot of fairy jade…”

“However, who knows what traps the demon clan has in their secret method of breaking through.”

Fang Xi was speechless. He went into the cave and continued drawing talismans.

Now his progress in Phoenix Seal Script talismans is advancing by leaps and bounds, but his progress in Dragon Seal Script talismans is very average.

Even if the cicada clan is relocated now and ordered to continuously offer golden cicada eggs to obtain the ‘Golden Cicada Remains’ so that they can continuously refine Time Talisman Paper, it is still the same.

Time and void are the two most profound laws in the world of earthly immortals. It is extremely difficult to comprehend them, let alone to even get started.

Fang Xi also took advantage of the “Treasure Mirror of the Heavens” and was able to comprehend the origin of the void on a daily basis, which enabled him to make rapid progress in the way of the void and even surpass the combined Heavenly Phoenix.

As for Long Zhangwen, it is difficult for him to cheat like that.

He stayed in the Earthly Immortal Realm for a while and also visited another immortal cultivation market.

However, due to the war between humans and demons and the unrest in the Star Domain, all businesses in the market had already declined. The once prosperous streets and even brothels were deserted, which made him feel very helpless.

…

Yaoyue Fairy City.

Fang Xi held the Buddhist beads in his hand and transformed into a beam of golden light, landing on the island in the middle of the lake.

Not long after, a red light came rushing over, it was Chisongzi.

“I’m glad you’re all right, fellow Daoist.”

When he saw Fang Xi, a look of joy flashed across his face.

“Fellow Daoist Chisongzi, I wonder how Fellow Daoist Shi Xianzi and Elder Tong are doing?” Fang Xi asked calmly.

“After we separated that day, Fairy Shi and I were ambushed by the enemies of Return to Void, but we managed to shake them off and return to Yaoyue Fairy City…”

When this matter was mentioned, Chisongzi’s face suddenly darkened: “As for Elder Tong Baitong, he was targeted by that Kunpeng and died…even his Nascent Soul did not escape.”

“Is it really so?”

After hearing what happened that day, Fang Xi couldn’t help but sigh: “So, does this mean that our mission has failed?”

“That’s not the case. When we met that day, Elder Tong secretly handed the storage bag to me for safekeeping. Now those supplies have been successfully transported to Yaoyue Fairy City!”

A trace of hatred flashed across Chisongzi’s face: “The Heavenly Demon Association and Old Monster Qiao… My Immortal City will never let them go!”

“It seems… it is very likely that this batch of materials is the raw material for refining top-level puppets…”

When Fang Xi saw this scene, a guess emerged in his mind.

At this time, Chisongzi took the initiative to say: “Daoyou and Fairy Shi are so kind, the Immortal City cannot repay you, this is the reward we agreed on last time.”

As he spoke, he handed over a jade bottle and a brocade bag.

Fang Xi took the jade bottle and saw a snow-white pill in it, which looked like a bright moon floating in the air.

The brocade bag contained twice as much fairy jade as expected, which should be Chisongzi’s previous promise.

“This Feixu Pill is really good!”

Fang Xi smiled slightly and took the pill.

Chi Songzi was startled, then said seriously: “I have promised you before that no matter what means you use, the Immortal City will return the original amount. I wonder how much the three array talismans and the array-breaking cone are worth?”

“So that’s what happened…”

Fang Xi smiled slightly and reported a number that made Chisongzi tremble with fear.

“Well… please wait for a moment, fellow Taoist. I will go back and discuss this with the elders.”

After a moment, Chisongzi wiped the cold sweat from his forehead and fled.

Seeing this scene, Fang Xi couldn’t help but laugh.

As long as the higher-ups in the Immortal City are not stupid, they can basically guess that he is good at formations, and it is even possible that the formation talismans and formation-breaking cones were refined by the ancestor of the Wang family.

The more so, in this time of crisis, the more we need to retain him as a high-level talent.

But it’s just a few fairy jades, I will definitely have to give it to you in the end.

“With this ‘Feixidu Pill’, it will be a natural thing for me to show my cultivation level of the middle stage of Return to Void in the future.”

Fang Xi tossed the jade bottle, seeming to be thinking about something.

Even the incarnation of the outsider is of little use to this pill.

But whether he trades it with a fellow trader or sells it directly in the future, it will be great and it will be worth his hard work.

…

Time flies.

Thirty years passed in the blink of an eye.

Tianfan Realm.

A wild land.

Swish!

A flash of black lightning streaked across the sky with a piercing scream.

In the pitch-black lightning, there was a demon cultivator who had reached the level of a god.

With his skills in the magic arts, he could barely be considered a master in the Tianfan Realm.

But now he was fleeing in a panic, as if he was being chased by some ferocious beast.

Cry!
Behind this divine demon cultivator, a peacock’s cry suddenly sounded.

The five-colored light turned into a tail flame, and one of the huge Five Hells Peacocks could be vaguely seen.

He controlled the five-colored divine light and with just a flick, the demon cultivator who had transformed into a god let out a scream and fell to the ground.

“He has transformed himself into the Emperor of Freedom and controls the true magic power of all spirits!”

A look of fear flashed in the demon cultivator’s eyes.

“That’s exactly what I did!”

With a flash of black light, the huge peacock disappeared and turned into the figure of an incarnation of heretic.

Fang Xi had a blank expression on his face, his body covered with a layer of pitch-black magic armor, and he made a hand gesture.

Two demonic arms emerged, grabbing the demon cultivator on the left and right, and secretly suppressing any resistance of his demonic power.

“Don’t…don’t devour me.”

Seeing Fang Xi stepping forward, a strong look of fear appeared in the eyes of the demon cultivator.

He already knew what would happen if he was caught by someone with the same magic power as him.

Because he had tried this method before and was deeply addicted to it.

“During the war between humans and demons, all kinds of monsters and demons came out…”

Fang Xi sighed: “The True Demon Sect… the secret organization of the demon race, has it actually infiltrated the Tianfan Realm?”

“Are you King Kong’s subordinate?”

The demon cultivator’s face became even more terrified.

“No, I’m just a magic cultivator who does this out of interest…”

Fang Xi’s eyes instantly became filled with demonic intent, and he activated the ‘True Demonic Art of Transformation’. Behind the two demonic arms, a complete chest, demonic body… and a ferocious demonic head emerged.

The demon cultivator suddenly screamed and felt his own Nascent Soul begin to wither.

Fang Xi absorbed pure demonic energy and magical power at will.

In the end, this person turned into a dried corpse.

With
a rustle of wind, the dust dissipated and the demon cultivator disappeared without a trace.

Fang Xi closed his eyes slightly and practiced his skills: “Although the consumption of transforming demonic energy into true demonic energy is a bit high, but a little bit adds up to a lot, plus the previous few people… it is enough to push my magic power to the peak of the early stage of returning to the void.”

During this period of time, the war between humans and demons attracted the attention of the demons.

The True Demon Sect, a secret organization of the demon clan among the human race, is extremely active.

This also gives the incarnations of outsiders an opportunity.

He wandered around various regions and finally found some demon spies who practiced the ‘True Demonic Art of the Emperor of Transformation and Freedom to Control All Spirits’.

Although they are all at the level of God Transformation, little by little they add up to a lot.

After turning these demon spies into elixirs to increase his magic power one by one, his magic power increased at an incredible speed in just a few decades.

Now I can break through the bottleneck and face the minor heavenly tribulation.

“The high-level cultivators of the Transformation and Freedom Demonic Art not only have a crushing realm on their fellow cultivators of lower realms, but their techniques are also extremely restrained… When these Transformation Demonic Cultivators see me, they can’t even escape with their Nascent Souls.”

“From this, it can be seen that if I meet the Devil King Zizai Tian, I will end up in the same way!”

…

Penglai Fairy Pavilion.

Fang Xi has a permanent cave here.

Not long after he returned to the cave, Fairy Yun Xi, who was dressed in a white dress and had a figure like an ordinary person, finally ended her retreat and came to visit him in person.

“Congratulations to Brother Yun Xi for completing his ghost body!”

Fang Xi just took a glance. In his mind, the woman’s figure was still a little illusory, as if there was a faint moonlight and nine dark Yin energy flowing inside the translucent body. He immediately knew that the woman’s method of condensing her ghost body was quite clever.

“I haven’t thanked you for your support along the way!”

Fairy Yun Xi bowed solemnly, and her temperament changed again, like a solitary orchid in a valley.

“Haha… Daoist friend, please come in and have some tea.”

Fang Xi invited Fairy Yun Xi into the cave and began to drink tea and discuss Taoism.

Before they knew it, the two were talking about the recent battle between humans and demons.

“A few days ago… a senior sister from the sect came to look for me and talked about this war.”

Fairy Yun Xi had a trace of worry on her face: “The demon army is coming with great force. After several battles, they have already reached the city of Tianjue. The thirty-six heavenly constellations of the Big Dipper have been broken, leaving only an isolated city…”

“Didn’t most of the five human beings, including King Kongzi and Changqingzi, stay in the city to defend it?”

Fang Xi touched the jade cup and said thoughtfully.

“After all, the five human beings are only combined cultivators… According to rumors within the sect, our sect master is also in Tianjue City and has even met that ‘Senior Che’!”

Fairy Yunxi said slowly.

“Senior Che?”

Fang Xi was immediately filled with respect when he heard this: “Is that the senior who is a relatively active Great Vehicle Sanxian among the human race?”

After entering the Mahayana stage, no matter it is the true spirit of the demon race, the demon ancestor, or the immortal of the human race, they will all face the nine calamities.

There is no distinction between the early, middle and late stages of the Mahayana period.

Even once one enters the Mahayana stage, the Nascent Soul in the body will have been cultivated to perfection, with no further room for improvement.

What is missing is only nine tribulations! Only
after going through all nine tribulations can one ascend to become an immortal!
Moreover, these tribulations are far more terrifying than the immortal thunder tribulations of breaking through the Mahayana stage, and each one is stronger than the last.

Many Mahayana monks died helplessly due to their own immortal calamity.

Therefore, most of the Mahayana cultivators are basically concentrating on cultivation, or searching for secret methods and treasures to overcome tribulations.

Anyone who can work wholeheartedly for the human race is worthy of respect.

“That’s right…”

Fairy Yun Xi smoothed her messy hair and said, “From this point of view… before Tian Jue City, I’m afraid that a war between Mahayana cultivators will break out…”

“yes……”

Fang Xi’s face was full of longing.

But in fact, deep down I want to run as far as possible.

If he had no business hanging around under the nose of a Mahayana cultivator, he might be discovered to have some flaws.

Read the error-free version on 6Ⅹ9Ⅹ bookⅩ bar! 6Ⅹ9 book bar first publishes a novel.

What’s more, Changqingzi is still over there!

He would never put himself in danger just to feast his eyes.

“The sect is urgently calling for help now. If it weren’t for the fact that I can’t leave too far, I’m afraid I wouldn’t be able to escape…”

Fairy Yun Xi smiled: “It seems that choosing this path was actually a good thing…”

After hearing this, Fang Xi fell silent.

Liu Xu has Yun Xi’s protection, and Shui Lingxin is just a casual cultivator like himself, so it’s not a big problem for now.

But the group of former gods in Tianfan City were in a very miserable state.

Except for Fairy Pu who was lucky enough to redeem herself in the last batch, Mr. Kuangtao and others were recruited one after another and went to the battlefield through the super teleportation array.

The battlefield at this moment is like a meat grinder!

It is said that the group of Divine Transformation cultivators have suffered heavy casualties. Among them, the Crazy Tao Monk risked his life to break through the bottleneck of Return to Void without being fully prepared in order to escape from the sea of suffering as soon as possible. As a result, he died…

Even that ‘Liang Rulong’ was unlucky. He chose a force in Tianfan City to join. Originally, he was attracted by the favorable contract terms and the provision of divine objects.

As a result, he was drafted and sent to the battlefield…

All the thoughts of old friends flashed across Fang Xi’s eyes, and then a gleam of light flashed in his eyes, and he forgot about everything and had no more worries…

This special temperament made Fairy Yun Xi feel awe-inspiring.

At this moment, he carefully sensed Fang Xi’s unconcealed magical power, and was shocked: “Daoyou… is it possible that he is about to break through again?”

“Exactly.”

Fang Xi answered with a frank smile.

“Fellow Daoist is truly the greatest genius in the human world. I am ashamed to be inferior to you…”

Fairy Yun Xi was deeply impressed.

…

A wild land.

Dark clouds gathered in the sky, and thunder struck again and again.

This time when Fang Xi was overcoming the minor heavenly tribulation, he did not ask anyone to protect him.

Even if Fairy Yun Xi is trustworthy!

But how can it compare to the real one?

Even this time, the incarnation of the outsider did not borrow the Hunyuan Tianluo Umbrella, a treasure that could transform thunder.

As for the Three Corpse Demon Banner?

Although I decided to give this banner to a more suitable external incarnation, under the might of heaven, tens of thousands of refined corpses, including the three returning demon corpses, hid in the demon banner and trembled, not daring to move at all.

Although this magic weapon is very powerful in fighting, it is useless when it comes to transcending tribulations!

However, the incarnation of the heretic remained undaunted.

He held the ‘Divine Infant Sword’ in his hand, with six devil flames burning on the sword. He silently practiced his skills, allowing the ‘Heavenly Son of Heaven’s Control of All Spirits’ to continuously break through…

Then, he swung a sword towards the thundercloud!
Woohoo!

The Divine Infant Sword whistled miserably, and the red sword energy mixed with devilish fire, struggling to resist one thunder tribulation after another.

But when the seventh thunder tribulation came, the pressure from the sky suddenly increased!
Even the incarnation of the outsider felt the pressure at this time.

But he smiled coldly, and a colorful feather fan appeared in his hand.

Chirp!

As the incarnation of the outsider fanned vigorously, a colorful halo emerged, and out of it flew out a group of phoenixes, Kunpeng, blue phoenixes, peacocks…

The chirping of hundreds of birds suddenly tore apart the thunder disaster!

“The minor heavenly tribulation of the middle stage of Return to Void is, of course, targeted at the cultivation level of the middle stage of Return to Void…”

“But with a fan in hand, the Outer Dao Incarnation can even compete with cultivators in the late stage of Return to Void or even the Perfection of Return to Void… It won’t be a problem to survive.”

Fang Xi crossed his arms, looking relaxed.

really……

Not long after, the thunderclouds in the sky dissipated, revealing the incarnation of the heretic, unharmed.

But at this moment, the incarnation of the outsider had a strange look on his face and offered up a spirit beast bag.

A green light flashed in the spirit beast bag, and a majestic green fire phoenix appeared.

This Blue Fire Phoenix buried its head deep in its wings, as if it was sleeping.

But under the stimulation of the heavenly calamity and the essence of thunder, there are signs of awakening.

“Xiaoqing, after sleeping for decades, are you finally going to wake up?”

Fang Xi looked up and saw the endless thunderclouds, which even showed a tendency to reunite.

This is certainly not the result of the heavenly tribulation changing its mind and preparing to strike the heretic’s incarnation again, but Xiaoqing is about to endure the sixth level of heavenly tribulation!

Before, Xiaoqing followed the incarnation of the outsider and was like a fish in water in the world of earthly immortals.

Just the inner elixir of the ancient beast Chuanyunhe was enough to greatly enhance his demonic power, and there was even a glimmer of hope for him to break through to the sixth level.

Later, after obtaining the essence and inheritance of the seventh-level Azure Luan, he found it even more difficult to digest such a huge amount of energy and fell into a deep sleep.

Now that he has awakened from his deep sleep, he must immediately endure the sixth level of heavenly tribulation.

“With his accumulation and background, it shouldn’t be a big problem…”

“My dream of a tortoise and a phoenix pulling a cart…is finally coming true.”

…

“yawn……”

Amidst the flashing thunder in the sky, Xiaoqing yawned, and then with a flash of green light, he turned into a human form.

She looked at the thunderclouds in the sky, feeling a little eager to try, and unexpectedly, without knowing when, she had quietly overcome the calamity in her heart.

Swish!

A golden lightning struck down.

Xiaoqing clasped her hands together and a layer of green light rose up.

The golden lightning struck the green light shield, and the light shield flowed like water waves, continuously relieving the force of the lightning.

In the end, the first thunder couldn’t even break through Xiaoqing’s demonic defense.

Snap!

Next, the second and third…

Xiaoqing still uses her human form to cast various demon spells to deal with the situation.

In the blink of an eye, the thunder exceeded the sixth level!

When the seventh heavenly thunder came, a golden ball of lightning fell, wrapped with countless runes inside.

Xiao Qing let out a long roar and transformed into a green fire phoenix, bravely meeting the thunder.

Swish!

Countless golden arcs of electricity fell on her demon bird body, leaving it with a charred black color.

But in the blink of an eye, another layer of Qingluan True Fire emerged and enveloped Xiaoqing’s whole body.

The charred layer quickly faded away, revealing even more brilliant and bright feathers.

Even Xiaoqing’s figure has changed a bit, from a Blue Fire Luan to a real ‘Blue Luan’!
“The Blue Luan True Fire turns out to have healing properties… Is Xiaoqing directly inducing the Heavenly Thunder to temper her body, stimulate her own blood, and transform into a real Blue Luan bird?”

When Fang Xi saw this scene, he immediately realized that Xiaoqing had gained great benefits from the seventh-level Qingluan inheritance.

Boom!

Boom!

Great heavenly tribulations fell one after another, but in the end, Xiaoqing opened his beak and directly spurted out a green demon pill, which was also tempered under the thunder.

Chirp!
Suddenly, a long cry of a blue phoenix tore through the thunderclouds, sweeping away all the thunder energy.

A flash of green light.

An extremely majestic blue phoenix landed in front of Fang Xi, and then transformed into a human form in a flash. It was the appearance of an adult Xiaoqing, with blue eye shadow at the corners of her eyes, and her every frown and smile was full of infinite charm.

“Master, Xiaoqing succeeded!”

Xiaoqing smiled and grabbed Fang Xi’s arm.

“Yes…it seems that I have indeed obtained a lot of good things from the Qingluan inheritance.”

Fang Xi nodded with a smile.

“Well, with the help of the Seventh-Rank Azure Luan Blood, he successfully performed a secret technique and his bloodline returned to his ancestral state… Now, he is considered to be a noble person in the Tianfeng clan… Coupled with his attainments in the Way of the Void, I’m afraid that by the time he reaches the middle stage of the fusion, he will be able to become one of the Seven Great Saints!”

Xiaoqing was originally gifted. The Tianfeng in the early stage of fusion was impressed by her talent and hoped that the Tianfeng clan would produce another great sage in addition to the Great Sage Hunyuan.

Now that his bloodline has been upgraded and his aptitude has been further improved, even if he were seen by the True Spirit Phoenix, he might be moved.

She was considerate to begin with, and with a smile on her face, she imprinted a green jade slip and handed it to Fang Xi: “Master, all the inheritance I have received is here…”

“Yeah, good boy!”

Fang Xi praised and scanned with his mind.

Although many of the Tianfeng clan’s secret techniques are only suitable for the clan itself, there are some secret techniques that, after some modification, may not be impossible for the master to try out when performing the Three-phase Annihilation Technique.

“Um?”

Suddenly, Fang Xi saw the last secret technique and was shocked: “The Phoenix Abode Nirvana Technique? There is such a secret technique in the world?”

“Yes… the conditions for performing this secret technique are very strict. One must also comprehend the power of Nirvana… it is a secret method to avoid disasters.”

Xiao Qing nodded: “I know from the inheritance of that seventh-level sky phoenix that this secret technique is specially used for the sky phoenixes who failed to break through the great realm… Only the sky phoenixes who broke through the Mahayana realm and the heart demon tribulation, but have no hope of surviving the immortal thunder tribulation, will use it… Once it is used, it can immediately eliminate the immortal thunder tribulation, or in other words… postpone the immortal thunder tribulation! Thus, you can gain a short period of Mahayana magic power…”

“Is it similar to the fake elixir, the Dharmakaya and the Nascent Soul? It’s just more demanding and short-lived. It’s just a moment of glory…”

Fang Xi seemed to have thought of something and immediately asked, “How long can this secret technique delay the Immortal Thunder Tribulation?”

Xiao Qing thought for a moment and answered uncertainly, “Nine is the maximum number. If you perform the Phoenix Abode Nirvana Technique… it should be able to delay the Immortal Thunder Tribulation for 9981 years at most. However, after 81 years, the thunder will double and the fight will not stop until you die! Master, what have you thought of?”

“No wonder I felt… that the demon tribe’s attack was somewhat urgent this time.”

Fang Xi touched his chin and said, “Now in the direction of Tianjue City, it is said that a battle between Mahayana masters is about to break out… If this is true, the human race will suffer a great loss…”

…
