Chapter 71: Immortal Technique

What Li Yan didn't know was that as he was going down the mountain, a tall old man opened his eyes in a cave on the top of the mountain far behind the stone tablet. He was sitting cross-legged on a bed in a gray linen robe. He had a head full of silver hair, but his face was as rosy as a baby. He said to himself, "The little kid is really interesting. When did Xiaozhu Peak accept such a disciple? He has mixed spiritual roots but pure spiritual power. He is still a fragmented poisonous body. He has been in seclusion for too long and doesn't know what's going on outside. If it weren't for the anger of the Heavenly Tablet, I don't know how many years have passed. This Heavenly Tablet is really a child. It's just that its cultivation is lower. It feels offended when it looks at it."

The tall old man muttered to himself, and awkwardly lowered his head and thought about it, as if he hadn't moved for a long time. The action of lowering his head seemed extremely stiff.

"This little kid's fragmented poisonous body is also a great opportunity. There are only three people in hundreds of millions of years, but his magic power is very strange. It stands to reason that the spiritual power in the body of mixed spiritual roots must be extremely mixed. How can his spiritual power be so pure? What's going on? Could it be that he has practiced some strange skills, but I have never heard of such skills, or he has swallowed some natural treasures..."

The old man lowered his head and couldn't help thinking.

Li Yan didn't know that his fragmented poisonous body, his internal cultivation, including his mixed spiritual root constitution, could be seen through by people thousands of miles away. Fortunately, he came here after he advanced and practiced for more than half a year. At this time, not only the water spiritual power tank in his body was full of spiritual power, but the other wood, fire, and earth spiritual power tanks were also full of spiritual power. Only the gold spiritual power tank had a small amount of spiritual power. Otherwise, if he had come here when he had just entered the second level of Qi Condensation, the old man would not have been so simple to doubt. The newly advanced Guishui Sutra was the unity of the five elements. At that time, he only had spiritual power in the water spiritual power tank. The other four tanks were usually empty because the amount of spiritual power was not enough when he had just advanced. Only when practicing would the five elements be dispersed, and the operation and generation of the current highest spiritual power tank would be accelerated by the art of mutual generation until all five tanks were full of spiritual power. This situation allowed Li Yan to avoid a trouble.

Li Yan recalled what had happened in the past six months, and a smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. Now he felt that in a few months or so, he might be able to break through to the third level of Qi Condensation.

He walked up along the bamboo forest path, and occasionally met some disciples from other peaks on the road. They just looked at each other and walked away without any connection.

After walking for a while, there was gradually no trace of people. Li Yan turned a few corners and the platform appeared in front of him.

After standing on the platform, he looked at the ground with different colors under his feet, and then looked back at some scorched bamboos in the bamboo forest at the edge of the platform. He couldn't help but smile bitterly. These were all caused by his practice of immortal arts.

At first, he was worried that he would mess up the place by trying immortal arts like this, and he didn't know whether the sect would let him compensate. But after this period of time, he slowly discovered a phenomenon. The places on the platform destroyed by his spells would slowly recover after a few days as long as they were not completely destroyed. This phenomenon was also the case on the ground in his courtyard, including the surrounding black bamboos. Although the spells could break or burn them, the bamboo shoots at their roots were very tenacious. After more than ten days, they would grow a large section of them crazily to replace the previously damaged black bamboos.

Seeing these phenomena, Li Yan estimated that this small bamboo peak might have secrets that he didn't know. Otherwise, why would those rocks recover slowly? The vitality of the black bamboos was so tenacious. It was estimated that only by destroying them by the roots could they be completely eradicated.

Even if he knew this, he would not choose to practice magic in the courtyard. First, the stone tables and stone benches have been replaced several times. Second, some fragmented toxins have an impact on the bamboo courtyard formation and consume spirit stones. He has nothing except eight low-level spirit stones a month, and he can't stand such a toss.

Li Yan stood on the platform, with a thin bamboo more than one person tall and a large stone at his feet. After calming down, he pinched the magic formula with his hands, chanted the spell silently, and shouted "Go". The next moment, a fist-sized red fireball appeared in the air and smashed directly to the ground in front of him. With a "bang", the fireball hit the ground of the platform firmly. However, the strange thing was that despite such a loud noise, there was not a single spark splashing. The ground in that area was like being tightly sucked by a red leech. The ground kept bulging like bubbles, but the next moment it squirmed a few times and then disappeared. However, another bubble would bulge in another place, and the next moment it squirmed a few times and then calmed down. The red flame like a leech became dimmer and dimmer, and the bubbles that appeared one after another became smaller and denser until they gradually disappeared.

Before the red flame disappeared, Li Yan picked up the large stone at his feet, walked forward carefully, squatted where the red flame was, and scraped the flame with the stone in his hand, as if he was scraping off a layer of a sticky plaster. The next moment, something strange happened. As soon as the stone in his hand touched the flame, it was sucked up by a trace of dark red flame. Then a string of bubbles swelled up and flattened on the surface of the stone, repeating over and over again, until it disappeared without a trace after a few breaths.

Li Yan looked at these with an expressionless face. The red flames under his feet disappeared after a few breaths. Looking at the intact stone in his hand and the ground under his feet that had not changed at all, Li Yan raised his other hand and gently wiped the stone where the red flames disappeared just now. Suddenly, a lot of powder fell off the stone, revealing a deep bright red groove, as if it was a few inches deeper, it would be able to penetrate the large stone.

He gently wiped the ground with his foot again, and a larger and deeper groove appeared on the originally intact ground, like a bright and eye-catching red scar.

This is one of the twelve pieces of Li Yan's fragmented poisonous body. Li Yan doesn't know what kind of poison it is. He has checked the classics. The immortal arts originally cultivated by the Wuliang Sect are different from those of other sects. For example, the Buli Peak may cultivate the "fire bomb technique" into a fire with Gu poison, the Lingchong Peak may cultivate the "fire bomb technique" into a fire with snake venom, and the Sixiang Peak may cultivate the "fire bomb technique" into every flame with miasma. All these things make other immortal cultivation sects headache.

And Li Yan doesn't know what the names of these toxins in his body are, because it is possible that a fragmented toxin is composed of many kinds of highly toxic ingredients that he doesn't know. Although he has been studying various poisonous grass and poisonous insect classics recently, this knowledge is still far from supporting his current cognition.

But this did not prevent him from testing the effect. After a few months of slow exploration, he can now simply control the twelve fragmented toxins. He can call one of them to release with spiritual power every time he casts a spell, but it is still relatively unfamiliar and clumsy to use. It takes five or six breaths to release each magic spell, which is enough for the opponent to kill him dozens of times when he is really fighting.

Li Yan is not very anxious about this, it is just a familiar process. As for the free combination of the twelve fragmented toxins, he doesn't want to think about this problem now. He can't walk in a straight line, so he wants to learn to run.

Looking at the stone in his hand and the bright red scars on the ground, Li Yan nodded with satisfaction. He now has to keep familiar with the role of the fragmented toxins in his body. The one just now obviously has a strong ability to adhere and corrode. If a person is hit by it, it will be directly and strongly adsorbed on the surface of the body. If others try to pat it with their hands to eliminate it, they will be attached to it together.

At the same time, this poison will continue to corrode and burn into the body, corroding everything it encounters into ash until the poison is exhausted.

The scary thing is that we don't know what these poisonous ingredients are, and whether they can be removed is still a question. Of course, with Li Yan's current ability, if he meets a Jindan master like Wei Chongran, even if he hits him, it is estimated that it will be just an itch, because the strength difference is too big. Whether in terms of mana or knowledge of poison, he is just getting started. ??

As for the eldest brother and others, it is estimated that there is not much hope. The Wuliang Sect is full of masters who play with poisons, and his knowledge of poisons is basically blank. The next step is that he has considered spending some time to learn about this from his senior brothers or the fat master.

After confirming the fragmented toxin just now, Li Yan thought about it carefully for a while and carefully experienced and memorized it.

After a while, he calmed down and cast a spell again. The spell sounded again. After five breaths, the "Quicksand Spell" was formed. The ground on the platform in front of Li Yan shook slightly, and then there was no wave or movement. Just like before, Li Yan reached out and picked up the thin bamboo that was more than one person tall at his feet and threw it diagonally. The thin bamboo made a muffled sound of "puff" and was inserted into the stone surface. The hard stone surface of the platform seemed to be a piece of sand. The thin bamboo was inserted more than one foot deep.

Li Yan withdrew his hand gesture and came to that place. He wiped the ground with his toes again. At this time, the ground was a large piece of extremely hard rock, and there was no soft color just now.

Li Yan took a step back and released his consciousness instantly towards the ground. The next scene was a bit weird. After just a short breath, the stick that was inserted diagonally into the ground began to flow out thick black liquid from bottom to top. The branches and leaves on it quickly curled and softened, and turned into a pool of black water in a moment.

Li Yan squatted down, dipped his fingers in some black water on the ground, then walked to the edge of the stone platform and smeared it on another thin bamboo. The thin bamboo shook a few times, and smelly black water flowed out of the pole. After a few breaths, it collapsed on the ground and became another pile of black water. Just now, he used another kind of fragmented toxin in his body to perform the "Quicksand Technique". The normal "Quicksand Technique" was just a trap technique. When it was used when fighting with the enemy, it would trap the enemy's lower limbs, and then wait for an opportunity to kill. For disciples in the Condensation Stage, the "Quicksand Technique" above the eighth level can generally make the enemy sink to the depth of an adult's thigh, and below the eighth level, it would be good to sink to the calf. These basically will not affect the enemy's hand attack. Only when you reach the Foundation Establishment Stage can you bury the whole person at once, which can play a role in killing the enemy. However, the "Quicksand Technique" is also a powerful weapon in the hands of the Wuliang Sect's Qi Condensation Stage disciples. The quicksand in it can form various poisons. Take the poison that Li Yan just used as an example. It can penetrate into the inside along the stems and leaves of plants and the pores of the human body, liquefying the trunks of plants and animals from the inside out. Therefore, even if the quicksand only traps the enemy's feet, the opponent is basically declared dead.

Like other peaks, using "Quick Sand Technique" will infiltrate the poison they have cultivated. For example, the poison of the Five Kui Horned Snake of Lingchong Peak mixed in the quicksand can not only corrode objects, but also spread rapidly to the heart along the wound, and kill people in an instant.

However, Li Yan is different from the disciples of other peaks. If they are poisoned by the poison they use, they can also kill themselves, so they must be careful when using it, or swallow the antidote in advance. The fragmented toxin in Li Yan's body cannot cause any harm to him, so he dared to touch the black water with his hands. This is also what he saw in the three classics, but he didn't dare to do it before. After thinking for a long time, he chose to try a fragmented toxin in his body that paralyzed people and fainted. After finding that it was okay, he took the courage to slowly try other toxins.

Some of the toxins in his body he still didn't fully understand. For example, there was a toxin that he tested nearly dozens of times before he understood that the toxin would only work under the sun at noon. Except for being exposed to the sun at noon, it would not work at any other time. For all these, Li Yan had to keep testing and spend a lot of time practicing with immortal arts.

However, he still figured out the usage of several kinds of fragmented toxins during this period. For example, the toxin used in conjunction with the "Quick Sand Technique" just now can control the time of poisoning through spiritual consciousness after the other party is poisoned.

After Li Yan tried the combination of these two toxins and immortal arts, he began to concentrate on practicing immortal arts. He was still unfamiliar with the use of immortal arts, and the casting time was too long, so it could not be used in actual combat.

After a few hours, Li Yan finally stopped practicing. For most of the day, when the spiritual power in his body was used up, he sat in meditation to regulate his breath. After the spiritual power was replenished, he continued to practice immortal arts until he was exhausted and stopped.

Looking at the scarred bamboo forest and platform, Li Yan did not go back immediately. This was different from the past. In the past, when he finished practicing, he would rest for a while and go down the mountain, but today he did not go back immediately.

Because today is the end of the year, the end of the year in the Desolate Moon Continent.
