Chapter 686 Then Keep Practicing Until You Achieve Immortality
Thinking like this, Wu Tao reached out and wiped the storage bag, and star stones flew out of the storage bag and floated around him.
From the sixth level of the true body to now, he was about to break through the seventh level of the true body. He didn't know how many kilograms of star stones he had used. Anyway, he was not short of merit now, and it was more than enough for the dual cultivation of the law and body.
As soon as the star stone appeared, Wu Tao no longer hesitated, and immediately started to refine the star stone by running the Zhoutian Star Refining Body Exercise, absorbing the star essence in the star stone and strengthening his star body.
As time passed, the starlight on Wu Tao's body became stronger and stronger, like a star, and his star body aura became stronger and stronger.
After refining a thousand kilograms of star stones, Wu Tao felt the barrier of breaking through the seventh level of the star body. He immediately stopped hesitating and ran all the power of the star body to rush towards the barrier that seemed to be there and not there.
The starlight on his body suddenly shook, and the barrier to enter the seventh level of the star body was instantly broken through. At this moment, Wu Tao's aura also entered the seventh level of the star body from the sixth level of the star body.
As he broke through the seventh level of the true body, Wu Tao's star power became stronger and stronger, and his mind was also transforming and moving towards a stronger state.
In the past, when he broke through the middle stage of the true body, his mind increased by 80 miles for each breakthrough. Now that he has broken through to the late stage of the true body, he doesn't know how many miles of mind he can increase.
Wu Tao did not stop running the Zhoutian Star Body Refining Technique, but continued to absorb the star essence in the star stone and merged it into the star body to consolidate the realm he had just broken through, and he also felt the growth of his mind at all times.
Soon his mind had grown to 80 miles, but it did not stop growing. Feeling this, Wu Tao was happy and continued to refine the star stone and absorb the star essence.
Ninety miles, one hundred miles... until his mind grew to 100 miles, it finally stopped.
Wu Tao was very satisfied with the growth of his divine consciousness. After he broke through to the seventh level of the Golden Core, his divine consciousness had grown to 2480 miles. Now, with the breakthrough of the seventh level of the True Body, he added another 100 miles, so now it is 2580 miles.
When the Golden Core Stage and the True Body Stage are complete, the divine consciousness will definitely grow to 3000 miles, and then the strength of the divine consciousness will be no different from that of the newly promoted Yuanying Zhenjun.
Of course, the newly promoted Yuanying Zhenjun is not only a hundred miles of divine consciousness growth, but also a transformation of divine consciousness, and the transformation of the Golden Core mana to the Yuanying mana.
Wu Tao also deeply understood this point and did not act arrogantly.
Continue to practice the Zhoutian Xingchen Body Refining Exercise to consolidate his cultivation.
After practicing for another hour, Wu Tao finally refined all the star stones floating around his body. He stopped practicing the Zhoutian Xingchen Body Refining Exercise, opened his eyes, and showed joy on his face, feeling his own strength growth.
Every time he breaks through, Wu Tao can clearly feel his own strength. This feeling of becoming stronger is really great.
He looked at the clepsydra in the corner of the training hall and found that it was already the morning of the second day. The lighting array in the training hall was about to automatically shut down.
Just as he was thinking about this, the lighting array in the training hall automatically shut down.
This lighting array is very intelligent and can sense the light intensity by itself. If it senses the light intensity of the day, it will automatically shut down. If it senses the night, it will automatically turn on.
Wu Tao got up from the futon and planned to say hello to Chen Yao, and then he would go back to the warship department to continue his work.
Today he was going to break through the 7th level of the true body, so he returned to Bixing Island, otherwise he would spend the night in the warship department tonight.
When leaving the training hall, Wu Tao opened his personal information and checked the progress of the Jiuyao Rongyang anode true skill.
The 7th level of Jiuyao Rongyangji True Art: (18%)
It has been a year since he broke through the 7th level of Jindan, that is, 12 months, 1.5 progress per month, and now it has been exactly 18 progress.
After taking a look, he immediately closed the personal information in his mind and calculated: "If it is at this rate, it will take another 4 years to break through to the 8th level of Jindan, but now I have successfully broken through to the 7th level of Zhenti, which will inevitably increase the speed of Jiuyao Rongyangji True Art. It will not take 4 years to break through the 8th level of Jindan."
Unknowingly, the expansion of the forbidden area Juehai has been over for three years, and Wu Tao and his team still have 7 years to complete the refining task.
"Although it is very busy, I have not fallen behind in my daily practice, which is still very good for me. After all, it is all in the Immortal Palace Refining Hall, and there is no problem with the safety factor."
Wu Tao thought about it and came to the main hall. He released his divine thoughts and sensed that A Yao was practicing in the practice room.
Originally, he would go in and out with A Yao every month when he came back, but yesterday, because he wanted to break through the seventh level of the true body, he did not go in and out with A Yao.
After the breakthrough, he planned to come early in the morning to celebrate the breakthrough of the seventh level of the true body, but now seeing A Yao practicing in the practice hall, he couldn't let her stop, so he flashed out of the Bixing Island and flew towards the Refining Hall.
The celebration can wait a few days.
After landing on the take-off and landing square of the Refining Hall, Wu Tao put away the flying real weapon and went directly to the War Equipment Hall.
Arriving at his own warship department in the War Equipment Hall, he first dealt with today's daily affairs, and then went to the practice room to practice the Nine Lights Rongyang Pond True Skill.
I just broke through the seventh level of the real body today and practiced the Jiu Yao Fusion Yang Zhen Gong for the first time. I found that the speed of practice has indeed accelerated a bit, but the specific increase will have to wait for the specific figures given by the system panel in a month.
However, Wu Tao was not eager to know. For him, a month passed in a blink of an eye, just like the two or three years, it also passed in a blink of an eye.
After practicing the Jiu Yao Fusion Yang pole true skill, Wu Tao walked out of the training room and went to inspect the 12 weapon refining halls below.
After inspecting the weapon refining hall where Gu Xingyuan was, Wu Tao called Gu Xingyuan out for a conversation.
"Fellow Daoist Gu, have you really decided to stay in the Weapon Refining Hall?" After Gu Xingyuan was promoted to the third level of Senior Weapon Refining Master and said he wanted to stay in the Weapon Refining Hall, Wu Tao planned to give him other matters in the War Boat Department, but now he found that everyone While he was busy refining the God-breaking Pillar in the town, there was no other matter for Gu Xingyuan to take care of.
Therefore, Gu Xingyuan could only continue the original refining task in the weapon refining hall.
But in this way, his status and treatment are that of a third-level advanced weapon refiner, but the rewards for the refining tasks are still above the original rewards.
This is inappropriate for a third-level advanced weapon refiner.
So this time, Wu Tao plans to talk to Gu Xingyuan and ask him to go to other places, so that the rewards from the refining mission will be more generous.
When Gu Xingyuan heard Wu Tao's words, he nodded and said: "You see, Fellow Daoist Li, it's been four or five months since I was promoted to the third level of senior weapon refiner. Here, it's still the same as before. There's nothing I'm not used to. Just let me stay here and refine." The palace of weapons.”
Wu Tao said: "Gu Daoyou, you are now a third-level advanced weapon refiner. If you stay here, the rewards for the refining tasks will not be improved. It is indeed a bit unfair to you."
Gu Xingyuan smiled and said: "Fellow Daoist Li, what you said is wrong. It is now a wartime situation. Everyone is refining this town-breaking divine pillar. Everyone's meritorious service income has increased several times. I have no shortage of meritorious practice now." , so it’s easier to stay here, and you’ll have more time to master the art of weapon refining and make full preparations for the fourth-level art of weapon refining.”
Gu Xingyuan's words were reasonable and well-founded. Wu Tao was convinced by him after hearing this. He had no choice but to nod his head and said, "Okay, then, fellow Taoist Gu, you can stay here. I won't persuade you anymore."
Gu Xingyuan laughed and said: "That's right, Fellow Daoist Li, don't put your mind on me. You are in charge of the entire warship department and you have many things to do."
Afterwards, Wu Tao asked Gu Xingyuan to return to the weapon refining hall, and he also returned to the Zhanzhou department office.
Just as he stepped into his office, there was movement in the storage bag on his waist, and someone summoned him.
"I'm so busy now, who will send me a message?" Wu Tao pondered, reaching for the storage bag on his waist, taking out the message token, and looking into it with his spiritual thoughts, there was a trace of sadness on his face.
It was Zhao Ting's son Zhao Yuanfeng who sent him a message, saying that Zhao Ting was about to return, and Zhao Ting wanted to see Wu Tao one last time.
"Alas, if a cultivator does not become an immortal, he will inevitably die after all." Wu Tao sighed, put away the communication token, and left the war boat department directly, heading to the take-off and landing square of the Refining Hall, intending to see Zhao Ting one last time.
Zhao Ting is like a senior brother to Wu Tao, no matter how busy he is, he still has to see him one last time.
When he came to the take-off and landing square, he saw Yu Zhixin.
Yu Zhixin had just released the real flying weapon and saw Wu Tao coming in a hurry. He immediately asked: "Fellow Daoist Li, are you going?"
Wu Tao took out the Feilang Boat and said to Yu Zhixin: "Fellow Taoist Zhao Ting is about to return, I will see him off."
Yu Zhixin nodded and said: "Then let's go together, I'm also going to see off Fellow Daoist Zhao."
Yu Zhixin is the golden elixir deacon of the Weapon Refining Hall, and Zhao Ting, a third-level senior weapon refining master, is about to return. As a deacon, it is natural for him to go and give him a gift.
Upon hearing this, Wu Tao nodded to Yu Zhixin, and the two of them flew the real flying weapon to the Golden Core Island together.
Not long after, Wu Tao and Yu Zhixin had already met Zhao Ting.
Zhao Ting sat cross-legged on the futon. All the cultivation on his body had dissipated and returned to heaven and earth. At this time, he was like an old mortal.
Old and weak.
In the main hall are his wives, concubines, children and descendants. At this age, Zhao Ting is already the eighth generation living under the same roof.
"Senior Brother Zhao, I'm here." Wu Tao came to Zhao Ting, sat down cross-legged, and bowed his hands to Zhao Ting, just like he did in the Border Islands.
But when he saw Zhao Ting like this, he couldn't help but think of his master Chen Shanlai.
A trace of sadness welled up in his heart, and finally melted away on his face.
Zhao Ting saw the sorrow on Wu Tao's face, smiled and said: "Friend Daoist Li, be clear about it, everyone will die eventually, even the God Transformation Lord will return to his path one day."
"Yes, Senior Brother Zhao is right. I am just grateful for the care that Senior Brother Zhao took for me in the Border Islands. I never expected that when I see Senior Brother Zhao again, we will be separated forever in just one year. It is really a pity." Wu Tao sighed.
Zhao Ting said in a low voice: "There are too many regrets in this world. I also have regrets. It is a pity that I can't see Li Daoyou promoted to the fourth-level weapon refiner. It is a pity that I have so many descendants, but none of them has a superior refiner. With weapon talent, you can be promoted to level three weapon refiner.”
After Zhao Ting said this, the descendants standing in front of him all looked guilty.
"But fortunately, Yuanfeng is still up to par, at least Jindan Zhenren. He can inherit this third-level island. I have to trouble fellow Daoist Yu about the inheritance." Zhao Ting looked at Yu Zhixin and said.
Yu Zhixin nodded and said: "Don't worry, Fellow Daoist Zhao, this is my responsibility, and I will definitely help Fellow Daoist Zhao handle his funeral arrangements."
"Okay, okay..." Zhao Ting rambled for a while, his voice getting lower and lower, as if he was tired and wanted to sleep. Finally, he stopped talking and his eyelids drooped, as if he really fell asleep.
But after a few seconds, he opened his eyes again, vigorously raised his hands to Yu Zhixin and Wu Tao and said: "Hey, I remember that I haven't said goodbye yet. Fellow Taoists, Zhao is gone. I hope we never meet again!"
After saying that, Zhao Ting put down his hands, lowered his head, and the aura on his body disappeared, completely returning to his path.
"Farewell to fellow Taoist Zhao!" Wu Tao and Yu Zhixin said sadly towards Zhao Ting's body.
In the main hall, there was a whimpering, rising and falling among the descendants of Zhao Ting.
Wu Tao remembered Zhao Ting's farewell words just now, saying that they would never meet again, hoping that they would not meet below, and that they could become immortals and live forever.
After looking at Zhao Ting's body again for a moment, Yu Zhixin and Wu Tao got up and found Zhao Yuanfeng.
Once Zhao Ting left, Zhao Yuanfeng became the head of the family, because among Zhao Ting's heirs, he had the highest cultivation level.
Yu Zhixin said to Zhao Yuanfeng: "Your father is a third-level senior weapon refining master. Logically speaking, the weapon refining hall will hold a return ceremony for him. However, you also know that now the restricted area is expanding and the weapon refining hall is very busy. So keep it simple, I hope Junior Brother Zhao can understand."
Zhao Yuanfeng nodded and said: "Senior Brother Yu, I understand, so let's keep everything simple!"
Yu Zhixin patted Zhao Yuanfeng on the shoulder and said, "Don't worry, I will help you handle your father's funeral arrangements."
"Thank you, Senior Brother Yu." Zhao Yuanfeng thanked Yu Zhixin.
Wu Tao also said to Zhao Yuanfeng at this time: "Junior Brother Zhao, if you need anything in the future, please come to me."
Zhao Yuanfeng raised his hands and said to Wu Tao: "Uncle Li, just call me your nephew. This is what my father told me to do."
Wu Tao smiled and said: "Senior Brother Zhao is like this. He does things in an orderly manner and does not violate any rules. However, he ignores the rules of this sect. You are Jin Dan Zhenren, and you are in the same realm as me. From now on, It is you and I who have fellowship, not your father, but your descendants, do you understand?”
Zhao Yuanfeng was very moved when he heard this. He remembered that his father had returned home, but he only invited the person in charge of the war boat department. It was obvious that he believed in this person's character. Just now, Senior Brother Li felt so sad in front of his father. But I saw it with my own eyes.
With tears in his eyes, he bowed solemnly to Wu Tao and said, "Yes, Senior Brother Li, please remember this!"
Wu Tao had a look of regret on his face, patted him on the shoulder and said: "You should take care of your funeral affairs first. You will probably be busy with this big family. I will come to see you off after the return ceremony of Fellow Daoist Zhao is held. ”
"Yes, I will see off Senior Brother Li and Senior Brother Yu." Zhao Yuanfeng sent Yu Zhixin and Wu Tao off the Golden Core Island.
On the way back to the weapon refining hall, Yu Zhixin sighed and said: "Oh, Fellow Daoist Li, I feel that this cultivator, who finally reached the realm of starry sea cultivator, has a lifespan of two thousand years, so he cannot live for a long time. , in the end we have to return to the path.”
Wu Tao said seriously: "Since the God Transformation Lord cannot live forever, then continue to practice until you live forever."
When Yu Zhixin heard Wu Tao's sonorous and firm words and saw the serious look on Wu Tao's face, he couldn't help but feel admiration in his heart, and said in appreciation: "As expected of you, Fellow Daoist Li, I am not as good as you."
