Chapter 209: Meet Again

A month later, a bamboo house had been erected on the deserted island.

In the bamboo house, on the bed, Xu Yang was still practicing while sitting cross-legged.

The spiritual energy was like a tide, sweeping in, and continuously blending into the body of the cultivator, turning into the magic power of the five elements and five attributes.

In this way, it took an unknown amount of time for the tide of the Yuanling to subside. Xu Yang's breath was steady, his eyes slowly opened, and at the same time, he opened his mouth and spit out a wisp of undercurrent visible to the naked eye.

"Ninth level of Qi training, late stage!"

"It's worthy of the five elements of spiritual roots!"

Feeling the Yuanling magic power in his body, Xu Yang was amazed again.

A month ago, he went to the market to buy a batch of supplies, and then returned to the island to become a infrastructure maniac.

Building houses, reclaiming fields, arranging spirit gathering formations, building net cages and collecting fish species...

There are many things to do and the work is very busy.

But he always keeps things in order. While building and developing, he has not fallen behind in cultivation.

In this way, after a month of hard practice, he has broken through several levels and has now reached the ninth level of Qi training, the late stage.

According to this development, it is reasonable to build the foundation in 100 days.

Such a rapid speed is due to the mysterious power of the five elements spiritual roots and the accumulation of Xu Yang's foundation.

Zhuang Zhou dreamed of a butterfly, reincarnated for several lifetimes, and repeated countless times on the road of cultivation. In addition to the creation of the martial arts and Taoist scriptures, and the deduction of the Wandao Academy...

Xu Yang dare not say that he has achieved perfection in the cultivation of the early realm, which is also the limit of human power and almost flawless.

In this way, the re-cultivation is naturally rapid and there is no bottleneck at all.

Unfortunately, the five elements spiritual roots and the accumulation of foundation can only solve the problem of mana cultivation.

He still hasn't got any of the five elements spiritual objects required for the foundation of the Five Spirits True Art.

Although there is no five elements spiritual object, it can also be promoted to foundation building, but it is equivalent to wasting an opportunity to purify the spiritual roots and improve the qualifications. Unless it is absolutely necessary, Xu Yang really doesn't want to give up.

"At the ninth level of Qi Refining, I have a certain strength. I can explore the surrounding area and collect five elements spiritual objects to prepare for foundation building."

"But before that..."

Xu Yang murmured, then closed his eyes, operated his magic power, and catalyzed thunder.

"Crack!"

Thunder flashed, electricity moved like a dragon, and faintly mixed with five elements and five colors, green, yellow, red, white and black rotated in turn, soaking into Xu Yang's body, passing through his flesh and blood, penetrating between his bones and bones, limbs and bones, without exception.

Driving thunder and holding electricity!

Heavenly thunder body quenching technique!

In one month, Qi Refining Nine Levels, from the early stage to the late stage, such rapid progress is all due to the five elements spiritual roots.

But the Yuan Ling contains demonic energy. The more it absorbs, the heavier the demonic nature. Although the Qi and Blood Furnace can refine it, it is extremely burdensome to the physical body, so Xu Yang had to put the physical training plan on the agenda.

For this reason, he searched in Wuze Lake for several days, trying to catch some electric eels to practice.

As a result, he found that this method did not work.

It's not that there are no electric eels in Wuze Lake, but...

In short, electric eels can't be used.

Xu Yang can only consume his own mana, use the thunder method to temper his body, and refine the devilish energy at the same time.

"Thunder method can refine devilish energy!"

"Not only thunder method, all things, including living things, can neutralize some of the devilish nature after absorbing devilish energy."

"Cultivators in this world should have a method to refine devilish energy and reduce the influence of devilish nature. After all, it is unreasonable to talk about toxicity without considering the dosage."

"But no matter how to reduce it, it is only a temporary solution. Unless the influence of devilish nature can be completely eradicated, otherwise after practicing to a certain level, you will still fall into the devilish way and become a demon."

"So, what is the state of high-level cultivators in this world, and why are there mortal dynasties under their rule?"

"There must be a secret!"

"I have achieved a little, and I am thinking about action when I am very quiet. It's time to go out for a walk!"

Thoughts turned in my mind, and my thoughts became certain.

Xu Yang got up, walked out of the bamboo house, and came to a pool in the center of the island.

The pool was a new pool he had built, located in the center of the island, surrounded by fields.

It was called a pool, but it was actually bottomless, more like a deep underwater cave.

Xu Yang came to the pool, took off his clothes, revealing his strong body, and jumped into the water.

A moment later...

"Splash!"

"Bang!!!"

The water surface exploded, lightning flashed, and a figure flew out. It was none other than Xu Yang.

Xu Yang was holding something in his hand, which was a thick and long snake-like eel with a black body.

He grabbed the eel's neck, and its thick and long body directly wrapped around his arm, crackling with golden electric currents.

Xu Yang didn't care. He fell down, picked up a sharp knife, and pierced the head of the electric eel with a puff, then nailed it to a rock beside, and threw a wooden basin to accumulate blood, letting it struggle.

The electric eel hung on the rock wall, struggling violently for a long time, and then stopped, and all life was gone.

Xu Yang came over, tore off the black scales of the electric eel, removed its internal organs, and pulled out a long tendon from its back.

Finally, he threw the electric eel, which was as thick as his wrist, onto the chopping board, picked up the broad and heavy bone-chopping knife, and chopped it into pieces with a few "thumps".

Xu Yang put down the machete, picked up a large pot full of fish meat, turned around and walked into the kitchen.

Soon, there was smoke and fragrance.

Stir-fry one, steam one, boil soup, boil porridge, and...

In short, everything was taken care of, and there was no waste.

Although he was very particular about food, Xu Yang was not a foodie, and he didn't even want to satisfy his appetite in this way.

But... this electric eel was disobedient!

Wuze Lake is indeed a large lake formed by the intersection of five lakes. It contains many species of fish and many rare and exotic animals.

Xu Yang searched the lake for several days and successfully found a group of electric eels, which he captured and brought back to culture.

According to the normal development, these electric eels will be cultivated by him into strange beasts, and then they will activate their intelligence and become spirits. Finally, they will practice the "Taiyin Form Training Method" and transform into human forms, becoming his most loyal subordinates.

However, what is unusual now is that his clone has not yet developed the breeding skills, nor does it have the power of the Earthly God Lord. It cannot control beasts to enlighten spirits or enlighten spirits. It can only breed spiritual beasts through ordinary methods and then control them.

So here comes the problem.

The ordinary breeding method is to use Yuanling as food for breeding, but everything in this world contains demonic energy. Under the pollution of demonic energy, can the things bred under the pollution of demonic energy... still be called spiritual beasts?

It turns out, no.

Xu Yang has been raising these electric eels for more than a month, but they are still not mature enough to raise them. They will go crazy when they see him, and they will not stop dying. They cannot be used to practice martial arts at all. If they are raised in a cage, they will attack ordinary people. Fish species, in the end they can only dig out a fish pond connected to the underground water veins for them to live alone.

Xu Yang was helpless about this.

This is the influence of demonic energy. Electric eels are like this, and other fish species are no exception.

Xu Yang can't solve this problem at the moment, unless he is willing to spend time, spend mana, and refine the bodies of alien beasts day and night to help them refine their demonic energy.

But that's obviously unrealistic.

Xu Yang estimated that unless he re-trained the two skills of "Beast Control" and "Earth Beast" and developed various characteristics, this problem would not be effectively solved at all.

Without the ability to breed spiritual beasts, the development of power will be a problem because of the lack of loyal subordinates.

As for substitutions...

Demonic energy is entangled and everywhere, so won’t people be affected?

Demonic energy, demonic energy!

It has to be said that the existence of this demonic energy caused great obstacles to Xu Yang.

But it's just an obstacle, not an insurmountable chasm.

At Wandao Academy, under the leadership of the "Tao Fa Noumenon", they have used the previously extracted demonic energy to conduct research and tackle key problems, striving to launch a method that can completely eliminate or significantly refine the demonic nature.

The main body works so hard, so the clone will naturally have to work hard too.

so……

"This porridge is good, and these fish are even better. I can catch two more next time."

…

After drinking and eating, Xu Yang left home and drove the awning boat to the fish market.

Although he is a cultivator in the late stage of Qi refining and can fly in the air even without a magic weapon, he still doesn't know much about the situation in this world, so he should keep a low profile as much as possible.

The black-topped boat sailed leisurely, and soon arrived at the fish market pier. Using the identity of the scar-faced man, he paid the fee to stop the boat, and then went ashore to the market.

It was already late autumn a month ago, but now it's even colder.

Although it is located in the south and there is no snowfall, the humidity and cold that penetrate into the bone marrow are not something ordinary people can bear.

However, the business of the fish market has not decreased because of this, but has become more prosperous. After all, fish are eaten in autumn and winter, and autumn fat is the most plump and very popular with buyers.

On the seller's side, although the weather is cold, life is even crueler. Even in winter, many fishermen go out on boats to catch a lot of big fish that have not lost their autumn fat, hoping to sell them at a good price and have a more comfortable New Year.

People come and go, rushing for three meals a day and livelihood.

Xu Yang did not go to set up a stall, but went to a restaurant and ordered some wine and food to eat. He also saw the various aspects of life and the chaos in the world.

"Have you heard that Lao Li is gone?"

"Oh, what happened?"

"What else can I do? I'm old enough."

"Fifty to eight, not bad!"

"Those of us who are begging for food on the boat are going through the wind and rain. Why should we be dissatisfied if we can survive at this age?"

"He has a good fortune. He has taken care of the three fat boys his mother-in-law gave birth to. He will have three members of his family before he dies, and he will have the honor to meet his ancestors when he goes down."

"What? Those three families came here to fight for the family property. I heard that Old Li Tou was a disciple of the Flying Tiger Gang when he was young. Later, he was injured and returned to fishing. It is said that he also left behind a martial arts secret book. The three brothers of the Li family came here for that thing. A pig’s brain is almost like a dog’s brain.”

"The Flying Tiger Gang is one of the three major gangs in our Jiangning Mansion. How great would it be if I could also join them?"

"Just think about it, look at the Third Master, he is just an outer steward of the Feihu Gang, how can you compare to the Third Master?"

"..."

A group of drinkers chatted nonsense, some had short-lived parents, and some had their own affairs, but most of them couldn't live without Jiangning Mansion.

In the feudal dynasty, many people had never left the county in their lives, and matters about the state capital were the biggest topic of conversation after dinner.

Although it is not of much value, Xu Yang is not bored.

Suddenly, I glanced over and saw two figures outside the store.
