"From shrimp beetle grass to fish dragon grass, and then to fish dragon, this process is quite long, and it also depends on the time and place. Often it takes decades and thousands of miles to find an example. Shanmen delivered it to Bairi Mansion Yimu Juling Tang forcibly catalyzes this process and artificially creates fish dragon grass. However, this method loses the innate Qi. The fish dragon grass created by this method loses its Qi induction with the same kind, and will never be able to Transform into an ichthyosaur. In the same way, if the process of the ichthyosaurus transforming into an ichthyosaur is disturbed, a ichthyosaur will eventually be born. This ichthyosaur will also be inherently deficient and will be difficult to continue to grow."
"It's a pity to say that these Ichthyosaurus plants should be harvested earlier in the future. If those ten or so Ichthyosaurus plants were allowed to grow for hundreds of years, their breath would be allowed to sense and communicate, and they would naturally gather energy and transform. , the fish and dragon generated at that time can be considered to be truly top-grade, but no one has announced the news. Just to offer it to the sect would have to have more than 2,500 merits... Of course, it is something you can only meet but cannot ask for. "
At this point, Lao Dao’s meaning is already very clear. He looked at Jin Huan: "This is the principle of transformation of the fish and dragon lineage. Lord Jin, what do you think?"
There was a long silence inside and outside the pavilion. Everyone was like a clay or wood sculpture. Only the slender fish dragon wandered carefree in the void, occasionally wagging its tail and passing by Jin Huan's eyes. , is another unspeakable irony.
For Jin Huan, this is nothing less than the most direct humiliation. As the supreme leader of Bairi Mansion, he has never been so angry. At this moment, the two juniors outside the pavilion thought that Jin Huan was going to be angry. It is not impossible to break with the old Tao directly.
But the reality is not that simple. After a long silence, Jin Huan finally spoke: "Senior Brother Yu is right... I thought simply."
Lu Yang was still able to hold his own, but the two young men were dumbfounded. When had they ever seen the tell-it-all Master Jin bowing his head and admitting his mistake?
Yu Ci was not surprised at all. In fact, no matter who he is, as long as he sees the magical power displayed by the old Taoist priest in front of him like he did last night, he will have similar preparations. What's more, behind the old Taoist, there is the unpredictable Lichen Sect!
However, although Jin Huan could not act wild in front of the old Taoist, he would never forget Yu Ci's part. The next glance made Yu Ci understand that as long as he walked out of the door of calm mind, this Jin Huan The master of the palace will definitely give him a good look.
From this moment on, for Bairi Mansion, Yu Ci has risen from "prey" to "enemy".
This is quite an improvement!
Yu Ci smiled and still sat still. However, Jin Huan stood up and said goodbye to the old Taoist: "Senior Brother Yu, today's business is over, I won't disturb you anymore, just say goodbye. But these two children..."
"Follow the rules."
These words are inhumane, but they are more practical than any guarantee. Jin Huan nodded and walked out of the pavilion. The old Taoist also motioned to the Taoist priest who had led the way before and led Jinchuan and Kuang Yanqi to the guest room to rest. The previous disturbance caused by Yu Ci was just raised high and put down gently.
The elders were okay, but the young people found it difficult to accept it, especially Jinchuan. In his opinion, it was a shame and a great humiliation for his uncle and grandpa to let him take this step. He was just an old man, but he is still sitting firmly. Who is Yu Ci from Diaoyutai?
When the young man left with the Taoist priest who led the way, he kept looking back, trying to burn the face of this hateful Taoist priest into his heart.
Watching a few people walking out of the garden, Yu Ci couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. At this time, he heard the old Taoist next to him sigh again, just like before.
“Having dominated one side for hundreds of years, deciding the lives and deaths of millions with just one word, how could such a man not even have the same vigor as when he was young... What a pity!”
Well, what happens when he is full of courage? Yu Ci did not ask this question after all, and the old Taoist only sighed with emotion, then turned his eyes back to him: "What do you want to gain in exchange for three hundred gong?"
Yu Ci thought for a while, but did not respond directly. Instead, he asked another question: "What kind of power and information was mentioned by Yu Guanzhu before?"
Tao Yu Zhou laughed when he heard this: "You are talking about good deeds... I am really smart, so why not come with me."
After that, the old Taoist headed towards the garden first. Yu Ci collected the fish and dragon in the pavilion and got up to follow.
It didn’t take long to get from the west courtyard to the middle courtyard. Yu Ci followed Lao Dao through the hall to transfer property, and came to a small hall on the third entrance of the middle hall. The flow of people here is obviously more than other places, and it is quite lively coming and going. Yu Ci raised his head and looked at the plaque on the temple:
"Tongdetang?"
The old Taoist led him into the temple. When he got there, he saw that the layout of the temple was very strange. There were no statues for gods, only the four words "Immeasurable Merits" hanging in the middle, followed by the screen wall, and the left and right walls were painted white. But there are dense writings and drawings on it.
Looking closely, these pictures and texts are not written on them, but a layer of light flow that changes from time to time, shining on the wall, and the words are haloed and clear. After careful inspection, the walls on both sides are divided into four columns. The first column on the left hand side is written with the word "Zheng", the second column is written with the word "cloth", the first column with the right hand is written with the word "法", and the second column is written with the word "object".
The old Taoist stood under the banner of "Immeasurable Merits" and answered in a deep voice:
"The path to immortality is vast and it is difficult to walk alone. Those of us who pursue the path face the catastrophes of heaven and earth. There are very few people who can achieve great success. In addition to self-sharpening and stabilizing our hearts, we must also strive for all resources to increase our chances of winning. The so-called Wealth, companionship, law, and land are nothing more than this. However, the world is vast and it is difficult for one person to obtain enough resources in his lifetime. Therefore, the sect established this Tongde Hall to create peace among the sect monks and even among them. Allocate resources within and outside the sect, use the surplus of others to make up for our shortcomings, and gather the strength of the entire sect to achieve great success.
"In order to make different types of resources easy to compare and trade, the sect quantifies all resources and uses 'good deeds' as the unit. Whether it is an object, a set of techniques, or an item, it can be converted into a number of good deeds, and It is announced in Tongde Hall and is known to the disciples of the sect.
"The four columns on these two sides are different. The 'good deeds' information released by the sect in order to collect resources and train disciples are listed in the 'levy column' on the left. After completion, the reward is higher, but the difficulty is also high; The 'good deeds' information posted by individuals within the sect are listed in the 'closing column', with varying rewards and difficulty. As for the second column on the right, the 'material column' is the conversion price comparison of various practice materials and 'good deeds', and the 'law column' is the price comparison. It’s the price of various spiritual practices.”
Yu Ci listened with his ears and watched with his eyes, and soon understood the meaning behind it. He couldn't help but sigh. It turns out that this seemingly otherworldly cultivation sect also has such a strong merchant atmosphere. He glanced back, and the old man extended his hand to guide him, telling him to take a closer look.
In this case, Yu Ci was not polite. He first walked in front of the four columns to observe their general outline, and then stayed under the magic column according to his own needs.
In the few days he spent with Ye Tu in the Sky Rift Valley, the boy gave him a lot of pointers based on his profound and solid theoretical foundation, including the "concentric circle theory" that amazed him. In addition, the young man reminded him to seize the opportunity and find a superior "immortality technique", which was the right way to practice.
Ye Tu's fantasy of letting him worship on the mountain island failed to come true in the end. However, Yu Ci remembered the young man's advice, especially half a month ago, he accidentally used the bronze mirror to illuminate the whole body. After Jindu transformed his "Innate Qi", he realized that Ye Tu's suggestion was the most pertinent.
He indeed lacks a real "immortality technique". Not to mention that it is still an invisible "purification" method, but it can also be seen from the "impurities" of the true energy that are regenerated every day. The "Nine Palaces and Moonlight Revealing Really Wonderful Method" that has been used for more than ten years is obviously no longer suitable for his current situation.
So, Yu Ci stood under the legal fence first.
The first three rows of this column are all large golden characters, arranged neatly one by one and very clear. The ink characters below are still changing with the flow of light, occasionally flipping, but the three rows above have never moved an inch. Look at the top one, in front of it is the name of the method:
"Tianfu Xuanwei Tongzhen Nine Degrees Sutra"
Just looking at the name of this scripture made Yu Ci's heart perk up. Then he looked at the number of good deeds required for the exchange later. What he saw was not a number, but two big words: Infinite!
Under the "Tianfu Xuanwei Tongzhen Nine Degrees Sutra" is the "Nine Degrees of True Wen Lianxing Chapter", which is also suffixed with the word "infinite". The third one is better. The method titled "Flying Feather Hidden Form to Climb to the Sky" is no longer a despairing "infinite", but a real number: one hundred thousand!
Further down, the words turned into the usual ink color. The first one was still the big one, it was "Tai Qing Golden Liquid Divine Pill Jue" with a price tag of 10,000. For Yu Ci, it was still an unattainable number. . Below are a certain elixir formula and a certain elixir method. The prices are always on the level of 10,000 or 8,000, which is considered the first level among the black items.
Seeing these numbers, and then thinking about the three hundred good deeds that were still unfulfilled, Yu Ci didn't know how she felt now, and it wouldn't be much better even if she thought about it.
"The descendants are very concerned about these methods. Do you also want to live forever?"
At some point, Yu Zhoulaodao stood behind him. Yu Ci was not in a good mood and simply said "yes".
"What a spirit!"
The old Taoist praised, but then stated the facts in a calm tone: "If you want to seek immortality, these three hundred skills are not enough."
Yu Ci grinned, but still had a question: "Are these gold and ink entries all immortality techniques?"
The old Taoist responded: "These are the Tongxuan methods that our sect relies on to stay in the world: "Tianfu Xuanwei Tongzhen Nine Degrees Sutra" is the general outline of our sect's practice, and "Nine Degrees Zhenwen Lianxing Chapter" is the guide. The Secret Technique of Tribulation and "The Technique of Flying Feather Hidden Forms and Climbing to the Sky" are the techniques of Bu Xu. The combination of these three, supplemented by the Dan Jue, Tuna and other techniques below, is the complete set of longevity techniques you seek. Practice accordingly. , will have the opportunity to break away from the shackles of mortal birth and seek immortality."
"The secret method of overcoming the tribulation? The art of Buxu? The secret of elixir?"
Yu Ci seemed to have heard Ye Tu talk about this before, but couldn’t remember clearly for a while, but an experienced person explained it to him:
"The Alchemy Technique is the method of returning elixirs; the Bu Xu Technique allows monks to fly outside the Nine Heavens and change their forms; the secret method of overcoming tribulations allows real monks who have attained Taoism to survive the tribulation of Heavenly Envy. Pass, in order to live forever. The three of them are indispensable. The combination of the three is the complete structure of the longevity technique.
"In the meantime, there is also a 'self-consistent' requirement. That is, the Bu Xu technique must correspond to the rejuvenating elixir, and the secret method of overcoming tribulation must also adapt to the magical power of a real person after enlightenment. Just like the Buddhist relics, they are equivalent to It is difficult to coordinate with the cultivation of Huan Dan and the Bu Xu Technique of Xuanmen. This means that the Dan Jue, Bu Xu Technique, and the Secret Technique of Overcoming Tribulation must be advanced layer by layer and harmonious. The path of spiritual practice..."
The old man spoke very clearly, but Yu Ci's face turned dark when he heard it. According to what he said, if you want to obtain the real "immortality technique", you must purchase all the Dan Jue, Bu Xu Technique, and the Secret Technique of Overcoming Tribulation. Leaving aside the Dan Jue and Bu Xu Technique, just looking at the price of the Tribulation Secret Technique, you can tell that this kind of thing is simply a purely seductive thing, and will never be open to casual practitioners like him.
Is it so difficult to acquire an immortality technique?
The old Taoist stood aside and said leisurely: "Do you know how difficult it is to live forever?"

Master Jin could hold it back, but I couldn’t hold it in any longer, shouting wildly for clicks, collections, and red tickets!
