Forging Immortality through the Dao Seed

boom--

The cold body of the man in black who was hiding behind the tree was hit hard on the ground. There was a layer of frost between his brows, and it was still spreading to his neck like tree roots.

Zhang Jing stared blankly at the several corpses scattered on the ground with complicated emotions.

When he was sure that he could pass the Longhu Taoist Academy examination, he knew that such a day would come.

But what I didn't expect was that this day would come so early.

And...that's it?

Just looking at the opponent's number and formation, Zhang Jing thought that the fight might take a long time.

However, in this battle, from the opponent's use of the magic weapon Flying Sword to his counterattack with the double-blessed ice-condensing edge technique, although the process in between was complicated, it actually did not take more than ten breaths.

This flying needle magic weapon is really unexpected, and its power is not weak. Fortunately, I stored three ice light spells in the Five Magic Spirit River in advance.

Zhang Jing bent down to pick up the flying needle instrument that fell in front of him, and said with some fear.

The flying needle weapon was so fast just now that he almost couldn't react.

Fortunately, after Zhang Jing learned the Ice Light Curse yesterday, he decisively replaced the ice-condensing and sharpening technique in the Linghe River that did not have the charm of You Jiao Swallowing the Void Dao with the Ice Light Curse.

The reason why Zhang Jing made this decision was because of the skill feature [Heavy Light] that appeared when the Ice Light Curse was upgraded to the first level.

The existence of the [Heavy Light] characteristic allows the ice light spells on his body to be superimposed on each other, as if they were one body.

In this way, when the defense ability of a single Ice Light Spell is determined, the more layers of Ice Light Spell there are, the more terrifying the defense power will be.

Zhang Jing couldn't help but recall the experience just now.

No, no, the three ice light spells stored in the Linghe River are still too few. Let's just replace them with four, leaving only one ice-condensing edge spell with the charm of the ghost dragon swallowing the void as a surprise attack method. But anyway, judging from the battle just now, one is almost enough.

While thinking.

An extremely weak voice caught Zhang Jing's attention.

He followed the sound and found that it was the old man lying on the ground. At this moment, the other party was struggling hard to climb onto the body of a man in black. His trembling hands reached into his arms, seeming to be searching for something.

Wait, this old man seems familiar.

Zhang Jing suddenly remembered that this was the old man who walked past him when he first entered the city.

At that time, he still felt that the opponent's foundation was unstable, his spiritual power was impure, and his cultivation would definitely not improve.

Now it seems that it is indeed a prophecy.

This... Young Master, the old man seemed to have found something. He hurriedly turned his head to look at Zhang Jing and begged: Can I make a deal with you?

Old man, let's talk about it first.

Zhang Jing smiled.

After hearing this, the old man's face regained its rosiness like a flashback, and he said hopefully: Old man, there is an extremely precious spiritual inheritance here. I will give it to the young master immediately. I only ask that you can help my poor grandson choose a good home and let him live. Go down.

After saying that, the old man used his last strength and threw the inheritance in his hand towards Zhang Jing.

He had no idea of ​​hiding anything.

Because the old man knew in his heart that no matter how the young man in front of him chose, this inheritance would eventually be in the hands of the other party.

Now he can only gamble on the goodwill in Zhang Jing's heart.

Precious practice inheritance?

A look of surprise appeared on Zhang Jing's face, he caught it easily, and then opened the cloth bag in front of the old man.

Inside was a jade slip.

He probed his spiritual consciousness into the jade slip, and the next moment he obtained relevant information about this inheritance - the low-level cultivation method Qingque Qi Latching Technique.

While Zhang Jing was observing, the old man took a few deep breaths and then said:

Young master, as a practitioner, you must also know the preciousness of this method. If you have the opportunity to donate it to the Taoist Academy, you can enter it to practice without any hesitation. The four people you killed are the Because he covets this inheritance, he has been chasing our grandfather and grandson all the way to this point.

I'll use it in exchange for a trivial move from you. Do you think it's okay?

Is this inheritance really precious?

Hearing this, a strange look appeared on Zhang Jing's face and he asked quietly.

Of course! If the news is leaked, it will be enough to attract countless monks to covet and fight for it.

Zhang Jing was silent for a moment.

Only then did he fully understand the huge difference between casual cultivators and Taoist disciples.

A low-grade inheritance is not uncommon among many Taoist disciples, although not everyone has it.

Moreover, Taoist disciples can also choose the inheritance that best suits them based on the compatibility of the methods.

As for casual cultivators——

Zhang Jing shook his head.

This low-level cultivation method, Qingque Qi Grasping Technique, is really of no use to me.

The compatibility of the method is not yet clear, and due to the low level, forcing him to practice will only waste his time, and will instead affect the progress of Wuzang Jie Yinshui Yuanzhu's cultivation.

The gain outweighs the loss.

But despite saying this, Zhang Jing still imprinted all the contents of the method in his heart.

It wasn't until he saw the skill display on the jade talisman that he nodded with satisfaction.

He may not practice cultivation, but he cannot live without it.

Anyway, there is no skill limit for Jade Talisman now.

After the assessment is completely over, let's go ask Senior Brother Liu to see if we can replace this Qingque Qi Grasp Technique with Dao Kung, or some other inheritance.

Zhang Jing thought to himself.

Old man, it would be better if...

Zhang Jing looked at the old man on the ground, only to find that the old man had lost his life at this moment. His body remained looking at him, his face full of expectation.

only--

Zhang Jing was really helpless about the old man's only request before his death.

Because the little boy was already dead.

As for why the old man who is also a cultivator didn't find out.

Zhang Jing guessed that it might be due to the slow response due to near death, or the other party had known about it for a long time, but was just unwilling to accept the reality.

well--

Zhang Jing sighed slightly.

Then he couldn't wait to start a popular sport that has been popular in the immortal world for a long time.

Although this magical weapon flying sword is a little worn out, it is still in good condition. Put it away and put it away.

Silver? Do practitioners still need to bring silver? Take it away.

These two knives don't seem to be magic weapons, but they are extremely sharp. Put them away first.

Huh? This is... Zhang Jing's movements suddenly stopped, his eyes were locked on a light gray animal skin bag on the waist of the man in black, and he said with some hesitation: Storage bag?!

He had seen this thing several times.

I saw Zhang Jing taking the animal skin bag off the opponent's waist, and his spiritual sense immediately penetrated it.

No resistance as expected.

A space about five feet square suddenly appeared in his perception.

There weren't many things inside, just some clothes, a small cloth bag, a very delicate-looking jade box, and some gold and silver, which together took up almost one-third of the storage bag's space.

It's indeed a storage bag!

Zhang Jing couldn't help but show a touch of excitement on his face.

The moment the spiritual sense that penetrated came into contact with the items inside, a special feeling appeared in Zhang Jing's heart, as if he could take it out of the storage bag with just a thought.

I see!

A flash of surprise flashed in Zhang Jing's eyes.

The next moment, the clothes in the storage bag suddenly appeared in his hands.

But at this moment.

A sound breaking through the air suddenly sounded, and it was getting closer.

Zhang Jing's face changed slightly, and he quickly put the loot he had just collected into the storage bag, then stood up and looked in the direction of the sound.

That's a magic weapon flying boat!

There were two monks in green clothes standing on top, approaching him quickly.

Looking like he's dressed as a senior from the Taoist Academy, could he be a law enforcement monk from Fang City?

Zhang Jing's heart moved.

Without waiting for a reaction, the flying boat stopped in front of Zhang Jing in less than three breaths.

Two men in green clothes floated down.

The shorter man among them first glanced at the six corpses on the ground, then cast his cold gaze on Zhang Jing, and said very rudely: Did you kill these people? Don't you know that it is forbidden to do anything within the city? ?”

At this time.

As if he noticed something, the slightly taller man in green suddenly walked up to Zhang Jing and asked with a smile:

You should be the junior brother who just entered the Taoist Academy this year, right?

Yes, I have met senior brother.

Zhang Jingding nodded and replied.

Since we are junior brothers, it's okay. But junior brothers, if you know what is going on with these corpses, please tell me.

Hearing this, Zhang Jing thought for a while and then replied

Senior brother, it's like this. When I was returning to the Taoist temple and passing by here, I happened to encounter these four men in black attacking the old man and the boy. After discovering me, they attacked me indiscriminately.

Zhang Jing shrugged, spread his hands and said:

So in order to protect myself, I had no choice but to take action.

That's it! The tall man in green nodded suddenly after hearing this, then smiled and stepped out of the way, and said directly: In that case, junior brother, you should go back to the Taoist Academy first, and leave this place to senior brother.

Thank you, senior brother.

Zhang Jing cupped his hands and responded with the same smile.

Wherever I go, it's just where my responsibilities lie. The tall man in green said, waving his hands.

The words fell.

Zhang Jing glanced back and made sure that nothing was left behind, then hurried towards the Taoist temple.

In situ.

Until Zhang Jing's figure disappeared from sight.

The short man couldn't help but asked in confusion: Senior brother, just let him go like this? This doesn't follow the procedure, and how can you be sure that what he said is true?

I'm not sure. The tall man in green clothes replied.

and you--

The short man hesitated to speak.

Seeing his junior brother's behavior, the tall man couldn't help but shake his head in disappointment and asked:

Senior brother, I want to ask you, is the junior brother who just entered the Taoist academy just now?

He is only at the first level of qi refining, but his spiritual energy fluctuations are so pure and thick. He should be practicing at a middle-level method. Judging from his age, he must be a new disciple of this Taoist academy.

If that's the case, does it matter whether what he said is true or false?

The tall man said meaningfully.

Senior brother, what do you mean? The short man still seemed a little confused.

Stupid! Unbelievably stupid! the tall man scolded: Junior brother, don't forget, if you calculate the time, it has only been less than half a month since they took the assessment.

He pointed to the corpse on the ground and sighed:

After practicing for only half a month, he was able to kill four second-level Qi Refining monks with one against four... How much talent does this require? If he lies, wouldn't it be even more terrifying?

Why would you offend this being who is almost destined to enter the inner courtyard?

Thank you, senior brother, for your teaching. Junior brother has learned a lesson!

Okay, junior brother, let's go tidy up the scene.

...

...

Huh~ I finally sorted it out!

In the room, Zhang Jing took a long breath and looked at the trophies arranged in categories on the table, with a smile on his face.

The first is the two magic weapons: the flying sword and the flying needle.

After careful inspection, he was delighted to find that the internal restrictions of the flying sword were intact, and the spiritual power lines were not damaged at all. This is equivalent to picking up a magic weapon flying sword for nothing.

Unfortunately, the internal restrictions of the magic weapon Flying Needle were destroyed and cannot be used.

Zhang Jing simply threw it directly into the storage bag.

In addition, he also found some spiritual stones from the storage bag and from several people, totaling forty-seven, which was enough to replenish his small spiritual stone library.

And the thing that the man in black solemnly placed in the jade box was three low-grade talismans.

After the assessment, I will find a way to sell it.

As for why he doesn't keep it for use - the main reason is that Zhang Jing feels that this thing is not as convenient and reliable as his Five Magic Spiritual River.

After some inventory.

Zhang Jing was surprised to find that, including the storage bag and magic weapon flying sword, the profit from this forced sale was estimated to exceed two hundred spirit stones.

I immediately became rich.

And all of this depends on the generosity of the four men in black.

After calming down for a while.

Zhang Jing then went to the training room.

The date for the completion of this assessment is getting closer and closer, which means that the method of determining the final ranking will soon be announced.

He felt an inexplicable sense of urgency in his heart, and he could only seize all the time to practice.

...

...

Time passed quietly.

As those who obtained C-level and D-level assessments arrived one after another, the Heritage Pavilion and the surrounding area gradually became lively.

One morning.

Two bright rays of light suddenly flashed out from the inheritance pavilion.

The escaping light stayed in the sky directly above the huge square in front of the Heritage Pavilion. In an instant, it turned into two men in purple clothes. They had a fairy-like temperament, walking in mid-air, exuding an extremely terrifying aura.

Come on, come on, it seems that the method of assessment and ranking for the newly admitted disciples has been determined.

Seeing this scene, several disciples from the outer courtyard wearing green robes below said excitedly.

Tsk, tsk, this year is interesting. It is said that there are twenty-nine B-level geniuses, and two A-level monsters. And some C-level geniuses are also good, so I have the urge to give it a try.

Who says it's not the case? What's the concept of the top ten having 50 Daogong per month? We work hard to do tasks and fight with the demons outside, but in the end, the little Daogong we earn throughout the year is not as good as what others earn in two months. Reward! Isn’t it too unfair for the Taoist Academy? Someone said with a sour tone.

Why are you so embarrassed? Why did you not make it into the top ten in the assessment?

And at this time.

I saw one of the purple-robed men above gently wave his hand.

Rumble——

The square shook violently.

Huge stone pillars began to rise from the ground, reaching into the sky.
