Volume 4 Peach Blossom Chapter 40 Black and White (Part 2)
In the thirty-first year of Yin Kui, at the beginning of spring, when I was eighteen years old, because all the toxins in my body had been cleared out, I began to continue practicing the Evil Poison Sutra.
Although I don’t know the origin of the deer demon or why it has such magical powers.
But it is absolutely true that she saved my life. If I have the chance to meet her again in the future, I will definitely thank her very much.
…
In the thirty-first year of Yin Kui, the beginning of spring, Nian Jiu, ... broke through the seventh level of Qi Refining...
In the thirty-first year of Yin Kui, in the middle of spring, he reached the tenth level of refining Qi...
…
In the thirty-first year of Yin Kui's reign, on the third day of summer, one year and three months after I began to practice the Evil Poison Sutra, I broke through to the tenth level of Qi Refining.
I am only one step away from my goal of becoming the most powerful wizard the village has ever seen.
The village chief said that although the Evil Poison Sutra was a quick-success method, he had never heard of anyone being able to rush from the first level of Qi Refining to the tenth level of Qi Refining at such a fast speed and not die from the poison outbreak.
In fact, if it weren’t for that deer demon, I would have died long ago.
In order to break through the foundation-building stage, ordinary poisons are no longer effective. I decided to take the bone-rotting ointment made by the village chief.
The bone-rotting and heart-piercing ointment, if even a little bit of it touches the skin of a Qi-refining monk, the flesh will rot and the bones will be exposed in twelve hours, and after twenty-four hours, the poisonous blood will attack the heart. It is the strongest poison refined by the village chief.
In the thirty-first year of Yin Kui, the middle of summer, and the fifth day of the fifth lunar month, I don’t want to recall the hellish experience of those two days again.
But no matter what, I succeeded and I broke through to the foundation-building stage.
However, after breaking through to the foundation-building stage, my cultivation began to reach a bottleneck again.
Because the toxins accumulated in my body have reached a critical point, every midnight I feel like I am being tortured by knives in hell, and the pain is unbearable.
I have to stop practicing and find a way to eliminate the toxins in my body.
…
In the thirty-first year of Yin Kui, mid-autumn, the fifth day of the lunar month.
No, no!
As my cultivation level improved, the poisons I took became more and more toxic. Accordingly, if I wanted to expel these toxins, I would need elixirs of higher quality.
And these high-quality elixirs are obviously not something I can refine in a short period of time.
Alchemy is a profound skill.
In the thirty-first year of Yin Kui, mid-autumn, the sixth day of the lunar month.
I still can't solve this problem. Is this the end of the initial stage of foundation building? I won't accept this!
In the thirty-first year of Yin Kui, mid-autumn, the seventh day of the lunar month.
That deer demon!
That deer demon is my only hope. Since she was able to help me get rid of the toxins in my body once, she can definitely help me get rid of them a second time!
In the thirty-first year of Yin Kui, mid-autumn, the tenth day of the new moon.
I have been searching for three days near the place where the deer demon first appeared.
Nothing was found.
Is this just my wishful thinking?
No, I can't give up, I will definitely find it!
In the thirty-first year of Yin Kui’s reign, in mid-autumn, the fifth day of the fifth month.
When I was on the verge of giving up, the deer demon appeared by itself.
She blinked her bright big eyes and looked at me curiously, full of spirituality.
I didn't care whether she could understand me or not, so I organized my words and told her my problem.
She seemed to be thinking about something. After a long time, a strong vitality exactly the same as last time emanated from her golden antlers, blending into my body and expelling all the toxins accumulated in my body.
She really understood what I said, and this was the second time she helped me.
I decided to give her a name.
The place where she appeared is called Yunmeng Mountain, so I decided to call her Yunmeng from now on.
Yunmeng seemed very satisfied with the name and kept laughing at me, looking very happy.
…
In the thirty-second year of Yin Kui's reign, in late spring, he was eight years old.
With Yunmeng here, I no longer have to worry about the side effects of practicing the Evil Poison Sutra.
But now a new problem arises. Due to the large number of poisons I have taken, my body has developed a very strong resistance to toxins.
Ordinary poisons can no longer bring me any improvement.
However, those highly toxic poisons are often extremely difficult to refine and are very valuable.
In the thirty-second year of Yin Kui, the first month of summer, the eighth day of the first lunar month.
Our Serpent Division’s Serpent Conference is about to begin!
The Spirit Snake Conference is a conference used by the Spirit Snake Tribe to select monks with extraordinary talents. Participation is restricted to monks under the age of 30. I definitely meet the requirements.
It is said that wizards who perform well at the Spirit Snake Conference may even have the opportunity to be noticed by the Teng Snake Wizard and be accepted as his apprentice.
The Teng Snake Wizard is the most advanced cultivator in our Spirit Snake Tribe, and the only Nascent Soul cultivator. If I were accepted as his disciple, it would not be an exaggeration to say that I would reach heaven in one step.
This is my chance.
If I perform well at the Serpentine Convention, I won't have to worry about poisons anymore.
In the thirty-second year of Yin Kui, the first month of summer, the ninth day of the lunar month.
I said goodbye to Yunmeng and headed to Lingshe City to attend the Lingshe Conference.
In the thirty-second year of Yin Kui, on the first day of the first lunar month in midsummer, the Spirit Snake Conference began. In the first battle, my opponent was a male cultivator at the tenth level of Qi Refining, and I defeated him easily.
In the thirty-second year of Yin Kui, midsummer, the third day of the first lunar month, the second battle... won...
In the thirty-second year of Yin Kui, midsummer, the fifth day of the new moon, the third battle... won...
…
In the thirty-second year of Yin Kui, midsummer, Nian Wu, due to practicing the Sutra of Poison and taking countless poisons, I have become almost immune to all poisons.
And in the Spirit Snake Conference, the methods used by my opponents often include poison.
So in the battle, I was almost invincible. I even defeated three opponents in the middle stage of foundation building with my cultivation level of the early stage of foundation building and directly entered the finals.
More and more people began to pay attention to me, but I don’t know if the Teng Snake Wizard noticed me.
Five days later, the final battle will be held. It is said that the Tengshe Wizard will be present to watch the battle in person. What kind of person is the Tengshe Wizard?
In the thirty-second year of Yin Kui, midsummer, the tenth year of his life, everything that happened today seems like a dream when I think back on it now.
Just before the final battle was about to begin, the Teng Snake Wizard finally arrived.
I originally thought that the Teng Snake Wizard would be an old or middle-aged man with gray hair and beard like the village chief, but I didn’t expect that the Teng Snake Wizard would be so young and... good-looking.
Although it still looks very majestic and scary.
In the subsequent decisive battle, my opponent was a water-swimming wizard in the late foundation-building stage.
Although I was not afraid of his poison skills, my cultivation level was two levels lower than his. After a hard fight, I was finally defeated.
But I didn't expect that the Teng Snake Wizard would accept me as his apprentice instead of the Water Wizard.
In the thirty-second year of Yin Kui, the last month of summer, the first lunar month.
Teng Snake Wizard, oh, no, it should be Master. Today I performed the apprenticeship ceremony with Master, and Master gave me many gifts, which made me particularly happy.
In the thirty-second year of Yin Kui, the last month of summer, the second lunar month.
I know why my master chose to accept me as his disciple, because the martial arts that my master practiced was actually the Poison Sutra!
After he found out that I was also practicing the Sutra of Poison and Evil, he was tempted and decided to accept me as his disciple.
Master prepared many poisons for me to use in my practice of the Poison Sutra, and arranged the order in which they should be taken according to his experience.
…
In the thirty-second year of Yin Kui, late autumn, the first day of the lunar month, after staying in the early stage of foundation building for more than a year, I finally broke through to the middle stage of foundation building. My master was very happy and rewarded me with another spiritual weapon.
In the thirty-second year of Yin Kui, in late autumn, on the third day of the lunar month, today I made a special trip back to Yunmeng Mountain to see Yunmeng.
Yunmeng was very happy to meet again after a long separation.
Me too.
…
In the thirty-third year of Yin Kui, on the first day of the first lunar month in the first month of winter, he broke through to the late stage of foundation building...
In the thirty-fifth year of Yin Kui, the winter season, the fourth year of Nian, ... a breakthrough to complete the foundation building...
In the thirty-sixth year of Yin Kui, the beginning of spring, the second day of the lunar calendar, as the disciple that Master is most satisfied with, Master took me to visit the Nascent Soul stage great monk of the Palace Guard Department, the Scale-toed Wizard.
On the way, we encountered a fourth-grade monster, but Master easily dealt with it.
Master, he is really strong.
In the thirty-sixth year of Yin Kui, at the beginning of spring, on the fourth day of the fourth month, I met the Scale-toed Wizard. He was far inferior to my master.
Not only is his cultivation inferior to that of his master, but his temperament and appearance are far inferior to his master.
In the thirty-eighth year of Yin Kui, late spring, when I was in my second year of Nian, I was ready to make an attempt to reach the Golden Core Stage.
This time I will use the golden silkworm poison to reach the golden elixir stage.
The golden silkworm poison is the worst of all foundation-building poisons. A poisoned person feels as if tens of millions of silkworms are biting him all over the body at the same time. The pain is unbearable and indescribable.
But in order to form the golden elixir, I will take the initiative to endure the pain of being bitten by thousands of insects.
To ensure that everything goes well, I decided to go back to Yunmeng Mountain to break through the Golden Elixir.
In the thirty-eighth year of Yin Kui's reign, in late spring, he was thinking of the third.
I will not go back to Yunmeng Mountain. My master knows that I am preparing to break through to the Golden Elixir stage and said that he would personally protect me.
Master has always been very kind to me.
In the thirty-eighth year of Yin Kui, in late spring, at the tenth recitation, under the protection of my master, I endured the pain of being bitten by thousands of insects and successfully condensed the golden elixir.
In just eight years, I went from a small cultivator at the second level of Qi Refining to a great Golden Core wizard. Thinking about it now, it is still incredible. This is all thanks to Yunmeng's help.
I have to hurry back to Yunmeng Mountain to share the good news with her that I have successfully advanced to the Golden Elixir realm.
In the thirty-ninth year of Yin Kui, the first month of autumn, the tenth day of the first lunar month, after I became a Jindan cultivator, I gradually began to take over some matters of the Spirit Snake Tribe.
Today, Huayu Village, a small village in the Spirit Snake Tribe that I am in charge of, was attacked by a group of monsters. They sent a spiritual letter asking for help, and I hurried to provide support.
But when I arrived, there were more than 1,500 people in the village, and almost no one was left alive.
The monster attack on the village was done by a group of ear-rat monsters. These monsters have no sense of smell and are naturally immune to the scent of the poisonous flower.
The village was littered with broken limbs and arms. There was an eared rat gnawing on a little girl's left hand, which was covered in blood.
The girl was not completely dead yet and still had a breath of air. I killed the ear mouse.
Before she died, the girl was in a state of confusion and mistook me for her mother, calling out weakly in her coma.
"Mom, it hurts..."
My heart was filled with horror, sadness, and unwillingness.
This reminds me of the day my dad died...
What did we do wrong to deserve so much pain?
In the thirty-ninth year of Yin Kui, the first month of autumn, Wang Yi, today I went to report the situation of Huayu Village to Master.
I didn't expect that my master, who was always so majestic, would lose his composure and shed tears in front of me after learning about the situation in Huayu Village.
I can't believe it.
It turned out that the village where Master lived was also attacked by monsters. When the great wizard of the Spirit Snake Tribe arrived, Master was the only survivor.
The master said that his biggest and only goal in life was to lead his people out of the mountains.
I……
I think I've fallen in love with Master...
…
In the 41st year of Yin Kui , Meng Qiu, Nian Yi, broke through the middle stage of Jin Dan...
In the forty-fourth year of Yin Kui, in the winter month, Nian Yi, broke through to the late stage of Jindan...
In the winter of the forty-fourth year of Yin Kui's reign, Nian San returned to Yunmeng Mountain to see Yunmeng.
Because of a lot of things to do, the last time I visited her was a year ago. She was very angry and it took me a long time to coax her into happiness.
Yunmeng eliminated all the toxins that had accumulated in my body over time.
However, it seems that as my cultivation level improves, the toxins in my body become more and more toxic. This time, Yun Meng spent a lot of effort to expel all the toxins...
In the forty-seventh year of Yin Kui, the beginning of spring, the first day of the lunar month, there are still three years until the witchcraft conference held every fifty years by the Five Tribes Alliance.
The last time, it was the great wizard of the Yinkui tribe who seized the position of the great elder, so these fifty years are called the Yinkui years.
Master has been preparing for this witchcraft conference for a long time.
Only by becoming the grand elder and in charge of the five tribes can he move one step closer to his quest of leading his people out of the Three Thousand Mountains.
Master, he will definitely do it!
In the forty-ninth year of Yin Kui, mid-autumn, the third day of the lunar calendar… I broke through to the Golden Core Perfection and was only one step away from becoming a Nascent Soul cultivator.
I couldn't wait to tell Master the good news, and Master was also very happy.
But I found that Master's complexion, for some reason, had become very bad and gloomy, as if he had encountered something.
I asked Master, and he shook his head and said it was okay.
In the fiftieth year of Yin Kui, in the last month of winter, he recited the number ten.
Master was defeated at yesterday’s witchcraft convention. After so many years of preparation, Master still lost.
But he didn't lose because he was not as skilled as others.
The great wizards from the other four divisions knew what the Master was pursuing, and in order to protect their own interests, they chose to unite to deal with the Master.
No matter how powerful the master is, he cannot defeat the four wizards working together.
In the eyes of the four great wizards, the interests of their tribesmen seem to be insignificant compared to their own.
They are not worthy of being great wizards!
It's the first day of spring in the first month of the year of the Golden Toad . During these past few days, Master has been very depressed, as if he is still immersed in the defeat at the Witchcraft Conference.
I'm a little worried about him.
In the first ten days of the golden toad year, at the beginning of spring, that high-spirited master finally came back!
In the first year of the Golden Toad Year, the beginning of spring, the second year of the lunar calendar, today my master found me and said that I am the most gifted cultivator in the history of the Spirit Serpent Tribe.
From today on, he will guide me with all his strength, and the resources of the Spirit Snake Division will be generously allocated to me to help me condense my Nascent Soul.
I was very happy because this not only meant that I was one step closer to becoming a Nascent Soul cultivator, but it also meant that I would have more time to spend with my Master.
In the first day of the midsummer of the Golden Toad Year, Master gradually transferred the matters of the Spirit Snake Tribe to me.
He said, I will be in charge of the Spirit Snake Department sooner or later anyway, so I can start getting familiar with these things now.
Although I said that, I always felt that something was wrong.
