Chapter 181 Great Changes in the Magic Path
In just over a quarter of an hour, three foundation-building elders at Ziyun Peak broke through to the Jindan stage.
The crowd, filled with envy and jealousy, soon found the source of the fluctuations in magical power.
In front of a villa somewhere, a crowd surrounded an old figure, their faces filled with disbelief.
A white-haired old man asked in a trembling voice: "Old Feng, have you really formed a golden elixir?"
Although he was asking, he already had the answer in his heart.
Half a month ago, Old Feng looked like a skeleton, his body was so skinny that it seemed like it would fall apart at the slightest breeze, and his whole body exuded a strong aura of death. But now he seemed to be rejuvenated. Although his face was still old, his body exuded vitality.
Only by forming a pill can such changes occur.
The golden elixir is the source of life for the immortal cultivator, and it will continue to repair his aging body for a long period of time.
Two hundred and fifty years old is the end of life for those in the Foundation Establishment Stage, but it is only the midpoint for those in the Core Formation Stage, and they can still live another two hundred and fifty years.
He and Feng Zhang had been close friends for more than two hundred years. Both of them had less than five years left to live. They had agreed to be friends in life and neighbors after death, but now he was left all alone.
The eyes of the foundation-building elders, who were about to reach the end of their lives, looked at the old man surnamed Feng with extremely complicated expressions, including envy, jealousy, but more of reluctance.
Until this moment, the old man surnamed Feng was still in a trance. He had been waiting for Guixu in the darkness, but today, good news came from the sky and he inexplicably fulfilled his dream of forming a pill.
He even suspected that he was dreaming.
There is no such thing as forming a pill at the age of 250. It is just a fantasy of a poor old man before his death...
He looked at his best friend and murmured, "Old Huang, slap me..."
Snapped!
Before he could finish his words, he got hit hard on the face.
It was a powerful palm strike in the late stage of foundation building. If it was before the formation of pill, this palm strike would have sent him to death.
But at this moment, with the golden elixir protecting his body, this palm only made his body shake slightly. Old Huang himself was instead blown away by this palm and sat down on the ground.
Feng Zhang helped his old friend up and immediately said, "Quick, go find the young master, you also have a chance to form a pill!"
After listening to the old man surnamed Feng briefly describe the process of completing the pill formation, the first reaction of these foundation-building elders was disbelief.
The Golden Spirit Pill is a fourth-grade elixir, so its preciousness is self-evident. There are not many people in the sect who can refine it, and the monthly output is extremely limited. Even the sect's geniuses do not have enough to share, so how could they get a share?
But they also felt the fluctuations of the Dan Formation just now personally.
Just when they were half-believing and half-doubting, another wave of magic power came from a certain courtyard above...
…
Purple Cloud Peak.
A platform at the top of the mountain.
Wu Tong held a spiral-shaped instrument for amplifying sound in his hand and said to the bustling crowd in the square: "Please line up in an orderly manner, do not cut in line, do not quarrel, everyone has a seat..."
On the platform, the foundation-building elders, whose lifespans were drawing to an end and who would not go out no matter what happened in the sect, lined up obediently like new disciples, fearing that they would be disqualified from receiving the pills.
Who could have thought that the young master would actually give these people the Golden Spirit Pill for free.
Even disciples of the Tiandao Sect do not receive such treatment.
After living a whole life, there is actually a day when I have to queue up to receive the fourth-level breakthrough pill.
Although after forming the elixir, they have to serve under the young master for a hundred years and are not allowed to betray him, they will all die. Every extra day they live after forming the elixir is earned. Who would care about these?
They knew very well that, apart from the Young Master, anyone else who gave them the Realm Breakthrough Pill would make more stringent demands than this.
A realm-breaking pill can allow a cultivator who is at the peak of the foundation-building stage and is nearing the end of his life to agree to any request.
Those who are qualified to queue here are all foundation-building elders whose lifespan is less than five years.
The people watching on the side all had a lifespan of more than five years . At this moment, they wished they were born a few years earlier. Some of them were even only one year older so that they could immediately obtain the realm-breaking pill.
However, they did not make a commotion, but watched .
The young master said that when they reach the lifespan requirement, they can go to Yuxuan Peak to receive the elixir at any time.
They had no doubt at all about the young master's credibility.
Just now, several elders like them formed Dan in front of them.
Li Yu sat on a chair and distributed pills to the elders in order.
He and Wu Tong originally came one by one, but then everyone gathered around, so for convenience, they let them line up and receive their items.
People's desire to survive is indeed endless.
Immortal cultivators' desire for life is even greater than that of ordinary people.
All they seek in their lives is immortality.
Compared with the power of faith gained, the value of a golden elixir is really not worth mentioning.
Li Yu had also wanted to gain their faith before, but he didn’t find the right method.
At this moment, the power of faith around him has become so strong that it cannot be dissolved.
Not only those who received the realm-breaking pill, but even the elders who were watching from the sidelines had the power of faith generated in their bodies.
Obviously, the golden elixirs that Li Yu distributed one by one also ignited their desire to live.
What happened at Ziyun Peak spread throughout Kunlun at an astonishing speed.
All of a sudden, more and more disciples began to gather at Ziyun Peak.
When the Kunlun disciples saw that the Young Master was actually distributing Golden Spirit Pills to those elders who were nearing the end of their lifespans, they were all shocked.
Not to mention Kunlun, even in the world of immortal cultivation, this is unprecedented.
For the continuation of the sect, no matter it is the righteous or evil way, the resources of each faction will be provided first to those disciples with outstanding talents, because they can lead the sect to go further.
As for the lower-level disciples, even if their lifespans are about to end, the sect will not give them the precious realm-breaking pills.
They are over two hundred years old and are still struggling in the foundation-building stage. Naturally, their talent is not that good. Even if they have formed a pill, they can only stop at the golden pill stage in this life. It is a sheer waste to use the Golden Spirit Pill on them.
The sect's top leaders will not waste elixirs on them.
But there was one person who was different.
These grassroots disciples are always in his heart.
He would listen to the demands of Qi-refining disciples and mingle with the lower-level disciples. As for the elders who had dedicated their lives to the sect, he first transformed Ziyun Peak so that they could spend their old age happily, and now he was using Jinling Pills to help them form Dan...
This gave rise to a special feeling in the hearts of every Kunlun disciple.
This is the young master of Kunlun.
In this life, it is really a very lucky thing for them to become Kunlun disciples.
Even though the Tiandao Sect is extremely powerful in the world of immortal cultivation, and even though there are so many beautiful women in Emei, they are still willing to stay in Kunlun.
Countless Qi Refining disciples, even if they have not yet established their foundation, are already fantasizing that when they reach the peak of their foundation, they will be able to obtain a Golden Spirit Pill. This instantly fills them with hope for their originally bleak path to immortality.
There was a lot of discussion around Ziyun Peak.
"Where did the Young Master get so many Golden Spirit Pills?"
"I heard from Master that the sect can only refine less than five of these pills a month, and some Nascent Soul masters may not even make one in several years..."
"Hasn't the young master been refining pills for the Demonic Path these past few months? These should be the extra pills he got from the Demonic Path."
"Woo woo, he used the resources of the Demonic Path to help our Kunlun disciples..."
"When will he become the head teacher..."
…
At this moment, all the Nascent Soul masters of Kunlun also heard the news.
Even they were surprised by this.
That was the Golden Spirit Pill. One pill could extend one's lifespan by more than two hundred years. Even though Kunlun was the number one pill maker, it only produced a limited amount. They could only get one pill every few years. Except for their own children and disciples, they were reluctant to even use it on other disciples.
Li Yu, on the other hand, actually gave those gifts to those foundation-building elders with mediocre qualifications.
You know, it is almost impossible for those people to conceive.
I don't know what he is trying to do.
But they had no right to comment on Li Yu's actions.
These pills did not come from the sect, and he had the power to dispose of them. Moreover, in a sense, he was also strengthening Kunlun.
As for those newly promoted Jindan elders, it is normal for them to serve in Yuxuan Peak for a hundred years.
If they were Li Yu, they would definitely ask those people to be loyal to them for life. After all, without those elixirs, they would soon return to the abyss. This was tantamount to the grace of rebirth.
It's just a pity to use those elixirs on them...
…
Yuxuan Peak.
In a quiet room covered by a formation.
Waves of magical power came from Li Yu's body, one after another, but were completely blocked by the formation.
One day he spent in Kunlun, his growth in cultivation through absorbing faith was equivalent to a month of alchemy in the Soul Refining Sect.
When more than seventy people at the peak of the Foundation Establishment stage broke through to the Golden Core stage, the power of faith generated was incomparably huge. In addition to them, the faith of Kunlun's ordinary disciples also increased countless times today.
Although their strength is not strong, their numbers are huge and when they gather together they are extremely impressive.
If he could have so much faith every day, he would be just around the corner from reaching the peak of the ninth level of the Five Spiritual Veins Golden Elixir.
Unfortunately, that level of faith only exists at the moment of their breakthrough, after which it quickly falls back and remains at a stable value.
Within today, all of Kunlun's foundation-building elders with a lifespan of less than five years have successfully broken through to the Golden Core stage. Half of them used only one Golden Spirit Pill to break through, while the other half used two.
Insufficient cultivation or bad luck will affect the effect of the realm-breaking pill.
Although Li Yu still had a lot of pills left, he did not continue.
Only when you are infinitely close to death can you realize the preciousness of life.
The remaining elders all have a lifespan of more than five years, which is not enough to experience the true meaning of life.
In just one day, Li Yu had seventy-eight more Jindan-stage subordinates.
However, they are all at the first stage of the Golden Core, and they all cultivate a single spiritual vein, which is considered the most mediocre Golden Core, and they can only stop at the Golden Core stage in this life.
Among them, the largest number are magic practitioners, accounting for about half, and the remaining half, about half are alchemists. In addition, there are talisman masters, formation masters, weapon refiners, mechanism masters, etc. It can be said that there are many talents.
Although they are all second-grade, they have studied various ways for their entire lives, and their theoretical level has actually reached the pinnacle. The only thing they lack is their cultivation.
After forming the elixir, they can be promoted to the third level in a very short time.
Li Yu didn't have anything for them to do for the time being, so he asked them to study hard and take exams to improve their grades as soon as possible.
Generally speaking, the purpose of recruiting subordinates in this way is to make them work hard for you.
Li Yu didn't intend to ask them to risk their lives.
His most important purpose, of course, is to practice .
A strong person in the Jindan stage can enhance the more refined power of faith.
Secondly, the pill in his hand would be wasted time, so why not use it on Kunlun's disciples? To him, it was just a pill, but to others, it could change life or death.
Walking out of the quiet room for practice, Li Yu's aura had been completely restrained.
He unexpectedly discovered that the witch was standing outside the door, looking a little anxious.
Seeing Li Yu coming out, she immediately said: "The two Yuanying ancestors have been urgently summoned, so we have to go back immediately."
Li Yu asked, "What's wrong?"
Nangong Chan said: "I just got the news that not long after the ceremony ended, the Demon Flame Sect suddenly attacked the Xuanming Sect and the Tiansha Palace. These two sects have been swallowed up by the Demon Flame Sect. Changes have also occurred in the major cave secret realms..."
Li Yu was also a little surprised when he heard this.
There is a huge difference in strength between the various sects of the Demonic Path.
The Xuanyin Sect, the Lianhun Sect, and the Puppet Sect all have Void-Breaking beings, and the number of Incarnations is also more than five, so they are called the Three Giants.
Apart from the three giants, all the other sects have not yet broken through the Void Realm, and the number of people who have attained the God Transformation Realm is also extremely rare, with most having only one, or at most two. The Hehuan Sect has three God Transformations, making it the number one sect under the three giants.
The strength of the Demon Flame Sect is in the middle among the ten sects of the demon world. There are two gods in the sect. The Xuanming Sect and the Tiansha Palace are at the bottom in strength, but they also each have an ancestor who has reached the godhood. With the strength of the Demon Flame Sect, there is no way for them to deal with these two sects at the same time, let alone subdue them in a short period of time.
Li Yu figured out the reason in an instant.
"Tian Dao Sect!"
The Tiandao Sect has dozens of gods who can challenge the entire Demonic Path with their own strength. If they support from behind, the Moyan Sect will have no rivals in the Demonic Path except for the three giants.
They would form an alliance with the Demon Flame Sect not just for those demon pills.
I'm afraid I'm just attending the Demonic Ceremony by chance.
They have deeper plans for the Demonic Path.
If it was just the Demon Flame Sect, the Demonic Path would not have to worry at all, as any one of the three giants could easily destroy it. But if the Tian Dao Sect was behind the Demon Flame Sect, the meaning would be different.
Now, the entire demonic sect was in chaos, and the two Nascent Soul ancestors who escorted them were urgently summoned. Li Yu and Nangong Chan had no choice but to go back with them early.
Flying on the spirit boat of Xuanyin Sect, Li Yu fell into deep thought.
Rather than saying that the Demon Flame Sect annexed the two Demonic Sects, it would be more accurate to say that the Tian Dao Sect annexed the three sects. Given their status, they actually annexed the Demonic Sect. Could it be that the Tian Dao Sect is still not satisfied with its current strength and wants to restore the glory of the Tian Yan Dynasty?
If their goal is really to dominate the world of immortal cultivation, then sooner or later they will reach out to the righteous side.
At this time, Nangong Chan, who had also been thinking for a long time, suddenly looked at Li Yu and said, "Let me ask you a question."
Li Yu shook his head and said, "I don't know what the purpose of Tiandao Sect is..."
Nangong Chan asked: "Who are you going to save, me or Qin Keren?"
