Chapter 202: The Final Encounter with Xuan
Bloody Sun and Cyan Qingyun were constantly fighting. Since the two took the initiative to start the fight, they placed the battlefield outside the city instead of inside the city to avoid hurting innocent people.
Lin Chen just stood not far away, quietly observing the battle between the two.
All the information inside and outside the two people's bodies was collected by Lin Chen and turned into huge data. It even formed an ever-changing mathematical model, which flashed in the depths of Lin Chen's pupils.
But even after collecting so many results, Lin Chen's face was still extra gloomy.
"Seriously, pests! The seeds I worked so hard to plant and the big tree that grew into the sky were destroyed by a group of pests before I could harvest much!"
Lin Chen's tone was indescribably cold.
Although with the help of the information collected by his eyes, using the clone as a transfer station, the curse method as a connection, and the body and spirit as the key to communication, he can create an Internet covering the entire Daqian Dynasty.
But there is a problem that cannot be ignored, that is, the consumption is too large.
After all, the territory of the Daqian Dynasty is not small. Although Lin Chen used various means to form an Internet and expand the range of perception to more than a hundred times that of ordinary foundation-building monks, energy consumption is still unavoidable.
The spiritual energy is very weak. Even if it can be replenished, the consumption of soul power is really unsustainable.
It is also very difficult to replenish the power of the soul.
After all, pills and elixirs involving the soul are very rare in the land of Lingnan. Even though he has developed soul-nourishing incense to supplement it, the quantity of raw materials cannot keep up.
Therefore, Lin Chen could only choose to open the local area network every once in a while to collect the training data of their inner alchemy method.
In addition, he also felt that only constant struggle could give birth to truly peerless geniuses, so he just let them fight.
But the bottom line of the people of the aristocratic family and the dynasty was far lower than Lin Chen had estimated, and all kinds of vicious and vicious methods were used one after another.
This resulted in many talents that Lin Chen was optimistic about being besieged and died during this gap period.
"If I didn't have enough aura resources and soul power to monitor in real time, how could I still let them succeed?"
"It seems that if I can make some breakthroughs in studying the essence of spiritual energy in the future, I must try to independently develop the conversion of spiritual energy and spiritual materials so that my resources will no longer be in short supply..."
"But if we can achieve this step, I'm afraid we can artificially transform the spiritual energy. This requires at least a golden elixir or above."
"So in the short term, I still can't get rid of my heavy dependence on the resources of cultivating immortals..."
Lin Chen sighed softly. Being able to convert spiritual energy into any immortal cultivation resources at will is not an easy task.
At least you have to have certain achievements in the microscopic structure of spiritual energy, grasp its nature, and influence its changes.
But it is also not easy to achieve this step.
Because one can detect extremely tiny Gu insects with one's spiritual sense, but it is difficult to distinguish the countless types of spiritual energy that are intertwined.
And no matter how you zoom in and observe, you can only see the shape and quality of the aura, and you cannot observe the internal structure of the aura at the microscopic level.
Therefore, we can only find another way to use the attributes of the aura of this world, Yin Yang, Five Elements and Bagua, together with formations, to analyze the aura structure of the corresponding attributes, and then we can get the most basic aura particles...
"But if you want to achieve this step, you must at least reach the golden elixir. With the spiritual energy control ability of Foundation Establishment, it is impossible to operate at this subtle level, so it is better to explore the golden elixir path first... "
"Forget it, let's put the resource issue aside for now. I'd better deal with this first."
Lin Chen put back his messy thoughts and looked in the direction of Yunjing, with no expression on his face.
"For people like me, I always hate people who create problems for me."
"But that's okay, I'm not only good at solving problems, I'm also good at solving the people who create them."
Bang!
At this time, not far away, a terrifying loud noise suddenly came, and then, a small mushroom cloud with a range of about a hundred meters rose slowly in the night.
Not long after, Xu Yue, who looked a little pale, flew towards Lin Chen.
"how?"
"If he were me fighting me, when my body was in its prime, we would be at least 50-50 at odds with each other, but now..." Xu Yue was silent for a moment, and then a murderous intent appeared on his face, and he said, "Those cancerous tumors , damn it!”
Although in the end, the martial artist who held the elixir method was given an honorable end, he could have become a genius of the era and a Taoist friend who could support each other and advance together.
In this world, how difficult it is to find an interesting soul and meet a fellow Taoist who walks the same path.
But after finally encountering it, it ended up like this. How could Xu Yue not be angry?
"In that case, let's set off earlier, go to Yunjing early, and see them off." Lin Chen said lightly.
"Well, but the old man sitting on the throne is calling people from all over the world who practice inner alchemy to come to Beijing. I suspect they are brewing some conspiracy." Xu Yue nodded and continued, "And what we are going to do next The road to Daomen happens to pass by Zhongxuan Mountain, so why don’t you contact me and find a helper?”
"Okay, I just want to go there." Lin Chen smiled slightly when he heard this.
"Then we will..." Xu Yue was about to leave when he suddenly noticed that a person was standing in the shadow beside him.
He was stunned for a moment, and when he looked closely, his face changed slightly: "Is this the other person in the family who is responsible for hunting us down?"
Xu Yue quickly reacted and turned his head to look: "Brother Lin, what are you doing..."
"It's just a good opportunity to make use of the waste. Don't worry, I have already dealt with him." Lin Chen said casually.
Xu Yue looked at him deeply, and finally didn't say anything, but followed him together.
Soon, the figures of the three disappeared in the vast night.
...
There is a mountain in the north, named Zhongxuan.
It stretches for thousands of miles, with strange mountains and dangerous peaks, lush forests, and countless wonders on the top of the mountain. There are even continuous clouds at high places, and the central mountain is covered with pavilions, towers, and jade buildings, just like a fairyland.
This is the Daqian Dynasty, the first Taoist temple in the world, and the place where the Taoist sect is located.
In the past, the Dao Sect was a place where people from all over the world could place their hopes and dreams, but in recent years, there have been frequent reports of immortals, which has made it even more famous.
So even though the location is a bit remote, at this moment, there are still a lot of people coming and going at the foot of the mountain.
"It's really magnificent!"
Even at the foot of the mountain, the scenery is still very magnificent, and with the nearby pavilions and people coming and going, Xu Yue couldn't help but sigh.
"No matter how prosperous the appearance is, it's just a passing cloud for people like us who seek the Dao. What's the matter, Brother Xu, you are interested?" Lin Chen said with a bit of a joke on his face.
"Uh, no, no, I just couldn't change my mentality for a while, so I sighed. Brother Lin, don't misunderstand me!" Xu Yue said hurriedly, "Since we are here, let's go up quickly."
Then, he raised his foot and walked up the mountain.
Lin Chen smiled slightly and followed him, but he didn't walk far. Just as he stepped over a certain border, he suddenly stopped and a look of surprise flashed in his eyes.
"What's wrong?" Xu Yue noticed this and turned back to ask.
"It's okay, let's go." Lin Chen smiled and walked forward without saying anything.
Xu Yue looked at him with some doubts, and carefully sensed the surroundings. He didn't find anything unusual. He couldn't help but feel a little strange, but he also followed.
Soon, the two arrived at the main peak of Zhongxuan Mountain.
On the peak, there are buildings in the Taoist temple everywhere, but judging from the materials, they should be built with wood and boulders from the mountain.
The two soon came to the huge main hall.
But the strange thing is that there is such a lively crowd at the foot of the mountain, but the Taoist temple on the mountain is particularly cold.
"Brother Lin, I feel that something is wrong here. It feels like there are fewer people..." Xu Yue carefully observed the surroundings and frowned.
Although it is always said that the Taoists on the mountain are practicing in seclusion, since such a huge force as the Taoist sect has been established, the number of Taoists on the mountain must be not small.
But since they came up, they have only met a few Taoists. Not only that, the people who came up from the foot of the mountain have disappeared.
"Let's go."
But what surprised Xu Yue was that Lin Chen's face was not surprised at all, but he raised his foot and headed towards a place clearly.
Xu Yue was stunned when he saw this, but he didn't ask you anything, but was silent for a while, and then followed closely.
Soon, the two of them came to the largest main hall on the mountain, one after the other.
In the huge main hall, there are very few decorations. The tall statue of the Taoist ancestor is in the right position, and under it is a huge incense burner. The curling smoke rises and covers the area, making people feel an indescribable haziness.
In front of the incense burner, there is an old Taoist with white hair and a childlike face, and a fairy-like appearance. At this moment, he is facing away from Lin Chen and the others.
"Yesterday, the flowers were in full bloom, but today, the flowers have fallen and the branches are empty.
The growth and prosperity are due to the beauty of spring, but the changes are empty with the wind overnight.
Time outside the world is originally self-satisfied, and the birth and death of the world are empty.
The prosperity and decline of a hundred years, big and small, passed by like a dream."
The words were spoken slowly, with an indescribable sense of etherealness. The next moment, as if sensing the arrival of the two, the old Taoist turned around and smiled at Lin Chen and Xu Yue.
"Two friends, welcome here, the old Taoist, I have been waiting for a long time."
Lin Chen looked at the person in front of him, and a touch of emotion flashed in his eyes. Although his face and temperament had changed, the other party could not recognize him, but he was surprisingly familiar with the other party.
After all, the person in front of him could be regarded as an old friend of his.
The old Taoist in front of him was the leader of the Taoist sect of the Daqian Dynasty, Yunmeng Taoist, whom he met in the place where the immortals ascended ten years ago!
