Chapter 335 Five Elements Gourd, the Secret of Ancient Times

[Magic Gourd: The prototype of a top-grade treasure, with infinite potential. ]

[Originally, it was an evil magic weapon refined by the Yuanshen cultivator Plague Old Man, and was later cleansed of all restrictions and refined into a prototype of a magic weapon. ]

[This magic weapon contains Chaos God Iron, which can contain everything and any attribute of power. ]

[This magic weapon has been refined with multiple attribute restrictions, all five elements, and a self-contained cycle, which is wonderful]

…

Looking at the purple supernatural light and the notes on the gourd.

Lu Qing smiled with satisfaction.

This was his first formal attempt to refine a weapon.

Although he had already used supernatural powers to simulate comprehension many times before.

But it was successful in one go, with almost no mistakes, which was still worth being happy about.

"From now on, you will be called the Five Elements Gourd."

After Lu Qing named the magic weapon in his hand, he threw the gourd, suspended it in front of him, and sprayed a mouthful of his own essence on it.

After the magic weapon is refined, the next most important step is to recognize the master.

And the recognition of the master of the natal magic weapon is much more complicated than that of ordinary magic weapons.

It is necessary to use the essence of the natal spirit and the power of the soul to continuously sacrifice for a long time, so that the magic weapon can be integrated with one's mind and heart, as if the arm points.

When it is further advanced, it is to use one's own spirit and spirit to nurture a certain spirituality, enlighten the spirit of the weapon, and promote it to become a spiritual weapon.

The reason why the plague old man was able to abandon his body so easily and become a spirit of the weapon.

It is because the spirit of the plague gourd itself is the same source as him.

Otherwise, it is not so easy to transform from a human body into a magic weapon and keep the true spirit immortal.

"The technique that the young master is practicing is actually the [Five Elements Body Refining Technique], and he has even reached the state of being radiant with precious light."

"Yan" was surprised when he saw the five elements of the life energy that Lu Qing spewed out, and the light that appeared on the surface of his body when he was practicing.

Ever since Lu Qing refined the Lihuo Ding, he had sealed the restriction.

As a result, "Yan" knew very little about Lu Qing, and even didn't know the technique he was practicing.

Previously, Lu Qing helped it to refine the old plague ghost to death, and he also activated the power of the formation of this cave, and did not use his own spiritual energy.

So until now, "Yan" realized that Lu Qing was practicing the [Five Elements Body Refining Technique] that almost no one cared about in the ancient immortal cultivation era.

"What did the young master think of practicing this technique? Could it be that this was the only immortal cultivation technique in the Lihuo Sect inheritance he obtained?

Or did he not know the disadvantages of this technique?"

"Yan" was a little confused.

【Five Elements Body Refining Art】is not a very advanced technique.

The speed of practice is not only slow, but also the upper limit is not high.

Even the cultivator who created this technique only reached the Golden Core Realm in the end.

It was beyond its expectation that Lu Qing would practice this technique.

However, "Yan" also knew that it was not the time to ask, so he just watched Lu Qing quietly refine the magic weapon.

As Lu Qing spewed out his life essence one mouthful after another, the Five Elements Gourd was also completely branded by him and refined into his life magic weapon.

After the brand was made, the Five Elements Gourd immediately turned into a stream of light, merged into his body, and finally fell into the Dantian Qi Sea.

All the five elements of spiritual power in Lu Qing's Dantian were absorbed, circulated in it, and then spit out.

Then it was swallowed in and spit out again.

As the Five Elements Gourd continued to swallow and spit out spiritual power, Lu Qing found that with each cycle, the spiritual power in his Dantian would become more pure and condensed.

He was a little surprised.

You should know that the [Five Elements Body Refining Art] he practiced requires his own spiritual power to constantly temper his body.

As the strength of the body increases, the requirements for the purity of spiritual power will become higher and higher.

Now the Five Elements Gourd can purify his spiritual power, which is equivalent to helping him practice all the time.

This can greatly speed up his practice again.

"Sure enough, it is right to choose to refine the Five Elements Gourd as my life magic weapon.

It is only the initial practice of this treasure, and it has such a miraculous effect.

When the magic weapon is completely formed and promoted to a spiritual weapon after continuous sacrifice and refining in the future.

The benefits to me are probably unimaginable!"

Lu Qing only refined one layer of the Five Elements Gourd now.

This restriction has all five elements, which is a set of five elements formation.

He combined the inheritance of the Divine Talisman Sect and the refining techniques of the Lihuo Sect to refine it.

Originally, there was only one layer of restriction. In theory, it could only refine a magic weapon of the magic weapon level at most, and it was the most basic one.

Unfortunately, the foundation of the Five Elements Gourd is too good.

The old man of the plague invested all his life's accumulation in order to refine his own life magic weapon.

He also accidentally integrated a piece of the legendary Chaos God Iron.

This makes the Five Elements Gourd, even if there is no restriction, enough to be ranked among the top-grade treasures just by its own material power.

In the future, as long as Lu Qing continues to sacrifice and refine it, and put restrictions on it, one day it will transform into a spiritual weapon again.

And by then, as the owner of a spiritual weapon, or a life magic weapon, he will definitely get great benefits.

"Congratulations, young man, the sacrifice is successful, and you have your own life magic weapon."

"Yan" congratulated Lu Qing after seeing him take the Five Elements Gourd into his body.

At the same time, he was also sighing in his heart that Lu Qing's luck was really good.

He is only at the Qi Refining Stage, but he not only has two spiritual tools, but he has also successfully refined a life-long magic weapon that has the potential to be promoted to a spiritual tool.

This kind of luck is almost unique even in the ancient times of cultivating immortals.

Anyway, since it was refined, there has been no such outrageous thing for tens of thousands of years.

"It's just a layer of restriction. There is still a long way to go in the future." Lu Qing shook his head.

However, with his current cultivation, refining one layer of restriction is already the limit.

If he wants to continue to refine, he must wait for his cultivation to make another breakthrough.

"With your talent, it won't take too long to reach the realm of refining the second layer of restriction." "Yan" complimented.

"But young man, there is one thing I don't understand. May I ask you?"

"What do you want to ask?"

Lu Qing naturally noticed the change in "Yan's" attitude, but he didn't point it out, just said it casually.

"I just saw the technique that the young master was practicing, and it seems to be the [Five Elements Body Refining Technique].

I wonder why the young master chose this technique to practice. Don't you know the flaws of this technique?"

"What flaws do you mean, senior?"

"[Five Elements Body Refining Technique], the five elements are practiced at the same time, and the time to cultivate one point of spiritual power is more than five times that of other techniques.

So its practice speed is notoriously slow.

And the upper limit of this technique is not high. The cultivator who created it at the beginning only practiced to the realm of golden elixir perfection.

The life span was exhausted and the body died.

Don't you know these?"

"Yan" said in a somewhat inexplicable tone.

"Senior, are you talking about these flaws?" Lu Qing smiled, "Of course I know, but for me, these are not a problem. [Five Elements Body Refining Technique] is very suitable for me. It is the technique that I carefully selected before choosing to practice. Senior, don't worry."

But he didn't say why [Five Elements Body Refining Technique] was suitable for him.

"I see, I asked unnecessary questions."

"Yan" knew that Lu Qing didn't want to talk about it.

Although he was curious, he didn't ask any more questions.

And he now understood Lu Qing's character.

Although this young man was young, he was meticulous and ruthless, and would never do anything that would harm himself.

Since he dared to practice this technique, he must have something to rely on.

"By the way, Senior Yan, I have been hearing you talk about the Five Decays of the Celestial Beings. I don't know what this is. Can you tell me in detail?"

At this time, Lu Qing also asked.

"Yan" was suddenly shocked.

Lu Qing had asked it this question before, but it used it to negotiate with Lu Qing at that time.

Now that Lu Qing asked it again, "Yan" didn't dare to mention it again.

Instead, he said solemnly: "The catastrophe of the five declines of heaven and man is actually a catastrophe caused by the decline of spiritual energy rules and the changes in the rules of heaven and earth at the end of the last era of immortal cultivation."

"This catastrophe is mainly aimed at cultivators above the foundation-building stage, and has little impact on the lower-level cultivators.

The main reason is that the rules of heaven and earth were constantly evolving at that time, and the world gradually could not accommodate powerful cultivators.

This is especially true for the powerful cultivators at the Jindan stage and above.

Even if they do nothing, their cultivation and soul are constantly declining under the influence of the rules of heaven and earth.

You must know that any powerful cultivator, with a body Realm cultivation is achieved through long years of hard work.

Even one's own life span is maintained by cultivation, so that the true spirit can be immortal and live long.

Once the cultivation and soul decay to a certain extent, those powerful practitioners will show signs of physical body and soul decay.

At that time, not only will the cultivation be gone, but even the true spirit will be difficult to maintain and fall into collapse.

This is the so-called five calamities of heaven and man.

At the end of the era of immortal cultivation, all powerful practitioners must face the world-shaking catastrophe! "

Lu Qing finally understood why "Yan" was so surprised when he learned that the true spirit of the old plague ghost was still there.

It turns out that this so-called five calamities of heaven and man are what all powerful practitioners must face.

"Then, a magic weapon spirit like you, senior, doesn't need to face the Five Decays of Heaven and Man?"

"Yes, although we weapon spirits also have true spirits, we are the spirits of magic weapons, without a physical body, and will not decay.

So the Five Decays of Heaven and Man will not affect us.

However, if the spiritual energy is exhausted and we cannot get the nourishment of spiritual energy for a long time, the true spirit will still become weak and fall into a deep sleep.

The reason why the old plague ghost took over the body and became the weapon spirit of his own life magic weapon was for this reason."

"Is there really no way to resist the Five Decays of Heaven and Man? There were so many powerful people in the ancient times of cultivating immortals. They would not just sit and wait for death, right?" Lu Qing asked.

"How could they just sit and wait for death!"

"Yan" smiled coldly.

"People who practice cultivation cherish their lives the most, especially those old monsters who have been practicing for a long time and have been powerful, who are the most afraid of death!

When the era of cultivating immortals had just entered its final stage, the rules of heaven and earth began to change, and the spiritual energy began to decline.

Those old monsters had already calculated this catastrophe and started to make plans early."

"Later, many immortal cultivation sects had frictions and fought for resources, and they were the ones pushing behind it.

The purpose is to integrate the resources of the entire world of immortality and implement their plan to avoid the catastrophe of the five declines of heaven and man. "

"What's the plan?" Lu Qing asked.

“I’m not sure about this, there were many rumors at the time.

Some people say that those old monsters want to open up a secret realm to avoid the induction of the rules of heaven and earth, and then wait for the revival of the next era of immortal cultivation.

It is also said that they will gather the resources of the entire world of immortality to create an unprecedented magic weapon to break through the boundary wall and leave this world.

It is even said that they collect elixirs from the entire world of immortality, refine a batch of top-quality elixirs, and raise their cultivation level to the limit, overcoming tribulations and ascending to the sky.

In short, there are different opinions, and I don’t know whether it is true or false.

Anyway, my Lihuo Sect had already fought hard with the enemy sect before the calamity of the Five Decline of Heaven and Man came, and was eventually destroyed. "

"Create a secret realm to avoid disasters?" Lu Qing was moved in his heart and said, "Senior, there are several secret realms in the world. It is said that they have been passed down for a long time and have tens of thousands of years of history. I don't know if they are the secret realms you are talking about."

Then, Lu Qing told "Yan" the information he knew about the four secret places.

"Xuankong Mountain, Yunshui Secret Realm, Qingyang Temple, Hanshui Palace?"

"Yan" showed doubts when he heard these names.

"Although these four sects can be regarded as top forces in the ancient era of immortal cultivation, logically speaking, their foundations are not enough to create a secret realm that can avoid the catastrophe of the five declines of heaven and man.

Could it be that after I fell asleep, something big happened in the world of immortality? "

"Senior, are you saying that it is impossible to create a secret realm that can be passed down for tens of thousands of years based on the foundation of Xuankong Mountain alone?"

"This is not true. In the ancient times of cultivating immortals, there were many secret realms that depended on the space of this world to exist and die.

If there is a force willing to do so, they can integrate into the secret realm and suppress the space at the cost of a powerful spiritual weapon.

This allows the secret realm to exist for a long time and not be closed.

Those top immortal cultivating sects back then almost all had one or two secret realms as a retreat.

But as I said, the secret realm is dependent on the space of this world, and is also affected by the laws of heaven and earth in this world.

Even if you hide in a secret realm, you can't avoid the five declines of heaven and man.

Unless it takes an unimaginable cost to completely separate the secret space and block the induction of the laws of the outside world.

Only then can there be a slight possibility of not falling into the calamity of the five declines of heaven and man.

But such a price is definitely not something that any sect can bear.

So the four secret places you mentioned, even if they have been passed down for tens of thousands of years, are forces inherited from the ancient era of immortal cultivation.

The disciples inside probably don’t know how many generations have passed, and it’s absolutely impossible for any old monster from the ancient times to survive. "

"Then what if they also have the body-stealing spirit that survives like the old plague ghost?" Lu Qing asked.

"In that case, it is possible, but spiritual weapons are rare, and if they are not natal magic weapons, it is extremely risky to seize the body.

Even if you succeed in seizing the body by luck and become a weapon spirit, you are just trapped in a prison. Not everyone can make this determination.

So even if there are such old monsters surviving, there will definitely not be many.

There are only three or two at most. "

When Lu Qing heard this, he felt a little relieved.

"Yan" was keenly aware of Lu Qing's change.

He couldn't help but asked curiously: "Why, Xiaolangjun, do you have a grudge against these secret places?"
