Chapter 236: Extremely Unlucky
Chen Jiu finally returned to Jiuling Mountain. This expedition to Nanzhili delayed him for more than ten days. Although he could practice outside, some things were not as convenient as in Jiuling Mountain.
For example, understanding the way of heaven.
He has almost comprehended the Gold Element and Earth Element Heavenly Dao, and is preparing to comprehend the Fire Element Heavenly Dao. If he comprehends it outside, it would be like lighting a blind man's lamp in vain.
Without the advice from True Lord Wuyun and others, he didn't know how long it would take him to find the direction of his enlightenment. A random word from others could take him ten days or half a month to comprehend.
Therefore, he can only expand his kingdom of God outside. At this moment, his gold kingdom and earth kingdom have expanded to a radius of five or six thousand miles. It is a bit difficult to expand them for the time being. It is a good time for him to start comprehending the fire kingdom.
What acupoints can be opened by the Fire Element Heavenly Dao?
He didn't need to ask anyone else about this. The internal organ corresponding to the fire element is the heart, and the acupoints near the heart are Shenfeng and Tanzhong. Tanzhong belongs to the Ren meridian, and it happens to be the acupoint through which Qi and blood circulate around the body. So he naturally chose Tanzhong.
He took two more bottles of fire elixir, and the fire elixir palace in the Danzhong point opened. The next step was to figure out how to transform the chaotic energy in the fire elixir palace into fire spiritual energy.
He didn't even need to waste time trying to comprehend this, because the old fox fairy and Xu Yanran had already comprehended it, so he just needed to ask carefully.
As a result, his comprehension of the Fire Element's Heavenly Dao went quite smoothly. In less than a day, he understood how to transform the chaotic energy in the Fire Element's Immortal Palace into fire spiritual energy.
The next step is to expand the fire-type immortal palace madly and continue to comprehend the fire-type heavenly way.
Around noon that day, he was taking advantage of the lunch break to ask True Lord Wuyun and the others about the Fire Element Heavenly Dao, when True Lord Chang'er suddenly said with a sly smile, "Master Jiu, there is something fun that we haven't played for a long time."
Anything else fun?
Chen Jiu couldn't help but wonder: "What's so fun?"
Chang Er Zhenjun laughed contemptuously and said, "We haven't angered Jade Ding Tianzun for many days . Have you forgotten?"
So that's what it is.
They haven't been there for many days.
This is indeed fun, and you can get some refining materials while pissing off that guy.
Chen Jiu couldn't help but asked excitedly: "When are we going?"
Chang Er Zhenjun said without hesitation: "Of course we will go after dinner. It has been so long, this guy should not be on guard anymore."
Chen Jiu naturally had no objection, and they set off after finishing their meal.
It’s still the same old rule. We’ll first break into the gold kingdom of a True Lord in Mount Yi to see if there are any materials for refining weapons inside.
They have come here five times, and there are still two True Lords' golden kingdoms in Mount Yi that have not been broken.
This time, Chen Jiu was extremely lucky. In about a quarter of an hour, he broke into the True Lord's golden kingdom. Moreover, there were four or five hundred thousand kilograms of gold essence, silver essence, copper essence and iron essence in it.
However, Yu Ding Tianzun was unlucky. He could be said to be extremely unlucky.
These days he has been hesitant to make pills or refine weapons, for fear that the guy from Tongtian Sect will come to disturb him.
As a result, just a few days ago, the scouts sent by the imperial court to gather information from Huguang finally returned, and they also brought the latest situation in Nanzhili.
The rebel king Chen Jiu actually led his army to attack Nanzhili personally!
This time, he was a little restless again.
Chen Jiu has fled to Nanzhili. There must be a master in Jiuling Mountain. It is impossible for that guy to come here at this time.
In the end, he couldn't help but try to refine a furnace of elixirs. As a result, it worked, and no one came to disturb him at all.
This time, he finally let go of his worries and started to make pills normally.
As a result, he was unlucky and the second furnace failed directly.
At noon that day, he was refining the third batch of pills when that powerful divine sense suddenly swept over him again.
What the hell!
He was so angry that his eyes were spitting fire and he almost smashed the Bagua furnace.
Are you still not letting me make pills? It's been almost a month, and I've only completed one furnace. Five furnaces have been wasted. The success rate is less than 20%!
Seeing this, Chen Jiu couldn't help but chuckle. Could it be that this guy knew that he was comprehending the fire element of heaven, so he sprayed fire from his eyes for him to see?
He left triumphantly, but Jade Ding Tianzun sat there cross-legged with his body stiff, as if he were dead.
Daoxing Tianzun saw this and hurried over to ask with concern: "Senior Brother Yuding, what happened to you?"
I'm so mad!
Jade Ding Tianzun froze for a long time, then bent over like a wild animal and panted, "I must kill this guy!"
Uh, what nonsense are you talking about? It’s good enough that they don’t rush over and kill us.
Daoxing Tianzun quickly advised: "Brother Yuding, don't be angry. I will ask Qinglei to prepare a few more furnaces of materials for you. You can refine them slowly. Don't worry. It doesn't matter if you fail."
What he meant was, the materials are not yours anyway, so why are you angry?
Jade Ding Tianzun roared in his heart: "Don't I have to waste time? Don't I have to spend energy? If I use this time to practice well, wouldn't it be better than taking a few bottles of immortal pills?"
He panted for a long time, then gritted his teeth and said, "Forget about these few days. I need to regulate my breathing, otherwise I won't be able to make the elixir."
All right, you can practice whenever you want, just don’t get angry.
Chen Jiu returned to Jiuling Mountain in a good mood and began to practice again.
Perhaps it was because he was in a good mood, or perhaps it was because the old fox fairy and Xu Yanran were both comprehending the Fire Element Heavenly Dao and there were so many things he could learn from them, so his comprehension of the Fire Element Heavenly Dao was really progressing rapidly, and the Fire Element Kingdom was also expanding rapidly, expanding to more than three thousand miles in just a few days.
At about noon on this day, he had just finished converting a monkey demon when Chang Er Zhenjun came running over and said excitedly, "Master Jiu, let's go and annoy that Yu Ding Zhenjun again today. I think he will be unable to resist refining pills again."
Sure, we can go whenever you say.
Chen Jiu immediately brought them to Yishan without hesitation.
This was the last gold-based kingdom of God. His luck was pretty good, as he managed to break it open in about two quarters of an hour. He even got a surprise at the very end. This guy's gold-based kingdom of God contained as much as 700,000 to 800,000 kilograms of gold, silver, copper, and iron essences.
Chen Jiu happily arrived above Dezhou City and extended his spiritual sense to scan the capital city.
Haha, Jade Ding Tianzun is indeed making the elixir again.
This time, Chen Jiu even poured some water on his alchemy furnace with some evil humor.
With a "puff" sound, the entire hall was immediately filled with water vapor.
Jade Ding Tianzun was so angry that he jumped up and cursed: "Who the hell are you? Come here if you dare, or I will kill you!"
I'm not coming over. I'm just going to make you angry and make you die of anger.
Chen Jiu smiled complacently and left.
After he returned to Jiuling Mountain, he suddenly remembered that he had not visited the Honghuang Divine Cauldron for a long time.
This guy hasn't come to ask him for a long time, and I don't know what he is busy with.
He flashed into the underground fire cave and just saw the Honghuang Divine Cauldron leisurely wandering in the lava.
What is this guy doing?
He couldn't help but ask, "Old Ding, what are you refining?"
Honghuang Shending said without hesitation: "Yes, I am refining the golden hoop stick."
My God, the Honghuang Divine Cauldron was actually distracted and talking to him while refining the artifact.
He couldn't help but ask carefully: "You won't destroy the golden cudgel by refining it this way, right?"
Honghuang Shending said calmly, "How can that be possible? I have refined more than 20 of these things. There will be no problem if I refine them with my eyes closed."
More than twenty?
Chen Jiu suddenly remembered that last time he asked someone to refine the golden hoop stick after refining the snake skin software, and he also told to come on the ninth and eighteenth day of each month to get his own golden hoop stick, so that he could save himself trouble.
However, that was nearly ten months ago and he had forgotten about it.
With the breath of the Honghuang Divine Cauldron, the Golden Cudgel is likely to be refined.
He couldn't help but ask again: "How many of your golden cudgels are left to be refined?"
Honghuang Shending said without hesitation: "This is the only one. It will be refined in two days. What will be refined next? Snake skin soft armor?"
At this time, there were no other rare treasures, only the eight snake skins of the Yamata no Orochi.
Chen Jiu nodded slightly and said, "Yes, you first refine four items that can enhance the output power, and I will match them to Ahri and the others. The others are gold, wood, water, fire, and earth. Come one by one."
Honghuang Shending said leisurely: "Okay, no problem."
This guy is really good at refining elixirs and weapons. He could even chat with me while refining the artifacts. He is totally unlike Yu Ding Tianzun, who could destroy a furnace of elixirs with just a sweep of his spiritual sense.
Jade Ding Tianzun, you really can't blame me for being angry at you, because you are too inexperienced. You have to concentrate completely even when refining an elixir.
Chen Jiu sighed inwardly for a while, then quickly returned to the top of Lianshen Peak and concentrated on practicing.
He has almost comprehended the Fire Element Heavenly Dao, and it seems that he can comprehend the Water Element Heavenly Dao as well. As long as he comprehends the Water Element Heavenly Dao, he will have all five elements. If he adds the Dao of Qi and blood and the Dao of Space, that will make it seven Heavenly Daos. As long as he comprehends two more, that will make it nine, and he will be the Heavenly Venerable.
Question: What are the remaining two insights?
To be honest, at this moment he didn't want to comprehend the water-based Heavenly Dao, because he was afraid that if he comprehended it too quickly, he would suddenly become a god.
The water-based heavenly way he practices is the Taiyin Sutra, and when he becomes a god, the movement will definitely bring about a heavenly calamity.
If the heavenly calamity suddenly comes, and Daoxing Tianzun and Yuding Tianzun take the opportunity to deal with him, then he will be doomed.
There is no need to think about it, there is a 99% possibility. After all, Chang Er Zhenjun said that the gods in heaven are the descendants of certain celestial masters of the Hongmeng Sect.
If they knew that he was undergoing a tribulation, they would definitely tell Daoxing Tianzun and Yuding Tianzun, and let them use the power of the Heavenly Dao artifact to deal with him together.
He couldn't take that risk.
So what kind of heavenly law should we comprehend next?
The way of yin and yang and the way of life and death?
The way of life and death is easy to explain. The old fox fairy, Jiaona, Zhang Shixin, Zhang Qian and others all comprehended the way of life and death. There are so many things he can learn from them.
It is hard to say about the principle of Yin and Yang. No one in Jiuling Mountain has realized the principle of Yin and Yang.
In this situation, it seems that he has no choice but to understand the way of life and death first.
That morning, he had just converted a monkey demon and was about to ask True Lord Wuyun to explain the way of life and death to him, when True Lord Chang'er suddenly said with a sly smile, "How about we go and piss off Jade Tripod Heavenly Lord today?"
OK!
Without saying anything, Chen Jiu led them to Mount Yi in a few steps and began to crack the fire kingdom of Qingyuan Zhenjun.
He knew that there was most likely nothing in the Fire God's Kingdom, because it was filled with lava, volcanoes, and scalding hot land, and nothing could be placed there.
However, cracking other people's kingdom of God would also help him comprehend the Way of Heaven. Perhaps in the process of cracking it, he would be able to fully comprehend the Way of Fire, so wasting this little time was nothing.
It took him about half an hour to break into the Fire Kingdom of Qingyuan Zhenjun. There was indeed nothing inside. However, it didn't matter. He just used this method to comprehend the Way of Heaven.
Immediately afterwards, he appeared above Dezhou City with True Lord Wuyun and his men.
As a result, when he used his spiritual sense to probe in the direction of the capital, he discovered that Jade Ding Zhenjun seemed to have just started refining a furnace of elixirs.
His luck was really good. If he had come earlier, before others started, he wouldn't have been able to make others angry.
This time, he splashed another bubble of water over, which made Jade Ding Zhenjun so angry that he jumped up and started cursing wildly.
Haha, you can curse all you want, I’m leaving now.
Jade Ding Zhenjun was so angry this time that he almost went crazy. He didn't know how long he had been cursing before he looked up to the sky and sighed, "Why am I so unlucky!"
