Chapter 607: Yinshen Immortal
Chapter 607: Yinshen Immortal
"Guanshi Shishu..."
Soon after Fang Xing's arrival, two more people came, an old man and a young man.
The elder was Yu Santian, and the younger one was his junior, a young man with a similar appearance to him, but his cultivation had already reached the Seventh Stage of Qi Sensing, and a strand of Qingmu killing intent lingered around his body.
"Hmm, you've come to see Old Meng too."
Fang Xing sighed and turned to the young man, "Is this the person you chose with Old Meng?"
"Junior Yu Hua, pay respects to Shishu."
Yu Hua hurriedly bowed.
"Hmm, little Yu, work hard on your cultivation, don't disappoint your two elders."
Fang Xing patted Yu Hua's shoulder and smiled slightly.
Meng Tiandong had no children, nor did he have any close juniors.
Even if Fang Xing bestowed a Daoji Pill, it was obvious that he couldn't possibly succeed in forming the Daoji.
Therefore, after another round of open and hidden struggles in Qingyu Garden, in the end, before Meng Tiandong's passing, he chose to give this Daoji Pill to Yu Santian, his closest friend.
And Yu Santian, who had also passed the age of sixty, selected a descendant from his family to join Qingmu Mountain, all for this strand of Daoji opportunity.
Recalling these events, Fang Xing still found them quite interesting.
After all, if it weren't for him keeping things under control, that previous round of scheming and plotting might have ended in someone's death!
Yu Santian was clearly not as honest and loyal as he appeared, but for Meng Tiandong, the fact that he had pretended for a lifetime meant that he was truly a friend.
And from a certain perspective, the Yu family had also successfully taken over the Meng family's wealth...
'Looking at the higher-ups, there are those who want to take over Fei Changnong's wealth and my inheritance...'
Fang Xing secretly smiled in his heart.
Perhaps at first, everyone was thinking of fleeing for their lives when disaster struck, and had no other thoughts.
But now, as time passed, the threat from the Kill-Life Cult seemed to be getting smaller and smaller, and various demons and monsters naturally emerged.
'Taking over someone's wealth...'
Fang Xing glanced at his own Life Span, revealing a meaningful smile, "I wonder, who will take over whom?"
...
Time flew by.
Although Fang Xing felt that someone was eyeing his wealth, this also meant that no one would dare to provoke him while he was alive.
He was content with this, spending his days tending to the Changqing trees.
Days passed one by one.
Finally.
Inside the tree house.
Fang Xing's mind merged with the myriad transformations, and in his dantian, the originally unstable divine talisman had already transformed into the seed form of a Jindan.
At this moment, the seed form of the Jindan was completely fixed, planted in a certain part of the dantian.
"Breakthrough... Yinshen Immortal?"
In this instant, he felt the terrifying energy overflowing from the divine seed of the Jindan, causing his soul to undergo a qualitative change, allowing his soul to easily leave his body and endure the baptism of the mighty wind.
"Xuexie Yansheng Divine Art!"
In a flash, Fang Xing's body seemed to explode, turning into countless particles of flesh and blood, and then reassembling.
Originally, his body was just that of an ordinary person, and although he had undergone numerous enhancements, ultimately, his development during childhood was not perfect.
But at this moment, it was as if he had been reborn, causing every inch of his skin, every inch of his bones, and every inch of his flesh to radiate a sense of perfection.
His entire body was like a deity carved from jade.
"Xuexie Yansheng Divine Art brings an incredibly powerful physique, along with formidable defense and regenerative abilities..."
Fang Xing clenched his fist, a sincere smile on his face, "Many of my martial arts can finally unleash their full power."
Not only that, but there were also the Druid's innate talents, such as 'Toughness' and 'Regeneration', which complemented his Xuexie Yansheng body, making them even more powerful!
"Not only that, but the most formidable aspect of Xuexie Yansheng Divine Art is the ability to drip blood and be reborn!"
"As long as I retain a drop of essence blood, even if my body is destroyed, I can still regenerate..."
"Or, even if my main body is torn to pieces, as long as there is a drop of fresh blood left, it can instantly restore itself!"
"With such a powerful physique and regenerative ability... I can kill a Yinshen Immortal with my bare hands..."
Fang Xing stroked his chin.
Most cultivators in this world didn't value their physical bodies, especially those who cultivated the Origami Art.
If an enemy were to target his 'weakness' and use a decapitation tactic, the outcome would certainly be exceptionally beautiful.
At this moment, the breakthrough, which was also a part-time job, seemed to have brought a huge amount of experience to the Druid level:
【You have experienced a 'Sacred Baptism', and you have gained a massive amount of 'Natural Knowledge'!】
【Your Druid level has increased to 17!】
Fang Xing's Druid level had already increased by one a few years ago, so now it was at level 17!
【You have gained a new innate talent - 'Advanced Nature Cure'】
He glanced at his attribute bar:
【Name: Fang Xing】
【Age: 94/4200】
【Profession: Druid Level 17】
【Realm: Yinshen Initial Realm】
【Innate Talents: Nature Affinity, Wilderness Shapeshifting, Plant Growth, Toxin Immunity, Youth Eternal, Thorn Technique, Tree-Bark Technique, Nature Heal, Enlightened Tree Being, Tree Herder, Toughness, Combat Casting, Enlightenment Technique, Regeneration, Eternal Youth, Nature Summoning, Advanced Nature Cure】
【Skills: Wan Quan Hand (Grandmaster 800/800), Origami Art (Grandmaster 800/800), Beast Taming Technique (Grandmaster 800/800), Qi-Concealing Technique (Grandmaster 800/800), Soul-Bewitching Technique (Grandmaster 800/800)】
...
"Life Span has increased by over a thousand years, not bad."
Fang Xing first looked at his Life Span.
Breaking through to the Yinshen Immortal realm generally extended one's lifespan by three to five cycles, but he directly increased it by over a thousand years!
This was all thanks to the 【Eternal Youth】 talent.
If it were the legendary 【Eternal Life】 talent, it would be even more terrifying.
In any case, Fang Xing no longer worried about his lifespan being insufficient.
He could live a long, long time, enough to wait for his true self to awaken.
"Advanced Nature Cure?"
"If Meng Tiandong had lived until now, I could have helped him regenerate his severed limbs..."
Fang Xing glanced at his new talent and pouted.
As for Nature Summoning, there wasn't much to say; it was just a way to summon nature allies at a specific location.
For example, Fang Xing could now consume Fa-Li Power to summon the Three-Headed Treant from Dolong Slope to Qingyu Garden.
It was a skill for calling for external aid, but once the spell duration ended, the summoned nature ally would have to return to where it came from.
"Initially, I decided to cultivate both Druid and spellcasting, and now it seems the results are good. Both sides stimulate each other, and they've grown rapidly."
Fang Xing nodded silently, recalling the perception he had of Qingmu Lao Zu.
"I have a side job, and my combat power far surpasses my peers. Can I rival a Yangshen cultivator now?"
"A Yangshen cultivator, when converted to a Druid, would be at least a level 20 profession, touching the realm of legends..."
"I probably can't compete with him now, but he can't take me down either, right?"
The newest, smallest, and youngest one spoke up, "In the 69th book, right?"
There were different levels of difficulty: escape, ability to escape, ability to compete, ability to defeat, and ability to kill... The gap in strength between them was significant.
Fang Xing silently calculated his current combat power, which could rival that of a Yangshen cultivator.
"To rival a Yangshen cultivator, I'd need a lot of preparation time and a large-scale natural ritual... and it must be done here or at Dolong Slope!"
Natural Ritual!
The so-called ritual was an ultra-large spell combination with the miraculous effect of defeating the strong with the weak.
Furthermore, some rituals, when performed, could directly enhance one's power, like the most common 'Bathing in Dragon's Blood'! If Fang Xing could obtain many rare casting materials or even natural wonders, he might be able to continuously accumulate attributes, max out various 'Wilderness Shapeshifting' specialties, and master 'Dragon's Mutation' before level 20!
Unfortunately, Fang Xing had never seen such natural wonders or casting materials in this world...
Moreover, if one wanted to take this path, it would have been best to choose the animal domain and specialize in transformation.
The second option was to build a basic 'Nature Sanctuary' or 'Forest Sanctuary' and, within one's own domain, barely have the strength to rival a Yangshen cultivator.
This was quite possible to achieve, after all, he leaned towards the plant domain and had the 【Tree Herder】 talent.
In fact, Fang Xing had already quietly made arrangements.
It was hard to say about other places, but if it was in Qingyu Garden or Dolong Slope... a Yangshen cultivator wouldn't be able to defeat him, and with a little carelessness, Fang Xing might even defeat him.
"After my many years of management, Qingyu Garden's strength has surpassed Dolong Slope... At Dolong Slope, I'm not afraid of a Yangshen cultivator, but in Qingyu Garden, there's a good chance of defeating him!"
Once pushed to the brink, Fang Xing would dare to enlighten ten or more ten-thousand-year-old Treants, which was the strength of the ten Yinshen Immortals.
Combined with the 【Natural Barrier】 domain, it was equivalent to a formation.
Additionally, the 【Tree Herder】 talent could perfectly complement the Treant's combat power.
With his own strength, there was a good chance of defeating an average Yangshen cultivator.
However, keeping the opponent alive seemed a bit difficult.
Therefore, Fang Xing decided to play it safe.
...
One year later.
Qingyu Garden.
Several newly transferred disciples looked at Fang Xing with reverence.
Fang Xing stood with his hands behind his back, waiting in front of a cave mansion.
The Druid's advanced perception allowed him to sense the slightest fluctuations in the heaven and earth's energy, almost forming a vortex.
This was Yu Hua's anomaly as he attempted to forge the Dao Foundation!
Behind him, Yu Santian clenched his fists nervously, his face filled with apprehension.
His hands were rough, cracked, and covered in calluses, clearly showing the hardships he had endured.
This farmer-dressed man looked at the cave mansion, his emotions indescribable.
Yu Hua carried the hopes of many.
There was even the friendship between him and Meng Tiandong!
Suddenly!
Fang Xing's eyebrows twitched as he sensed the collapse of the heaven and earth vortex.
He sighed and opened the door to the cave mansion.
"Hua'er?"
Yu Santian rushed in and saw Yu Hua lying on the ground, his face contorted in pain.
"The Dao Foundation Pill failed, and the backlash of Yuan Qi and Fa-Li Power is devouring him!"
Although the Dao Foundation Pill protected his Dantian, failure to forge the Dao Foundation would not result in death, but a severe injury and a weakened foundation were still inevitable.
Fang Xing immediately understood the situation.
'The Dao Foundation Pill only provides about a 10% success rate, which is indeed a bit low...'
He raised his hand and placed it on Yu Hua's Dantian, dispersing all the chaotic Fa-Li Power.
"Ah!"
Yu Hua let out a painful cry, feeling as if his Dantian was being cut by a knife, and his meridians twisted.
Then, a beam of green light fell on his head and entered his Dantian along his spine.
—Advanced Nature Cure!
Seeing Yu Santian's hard work over the years, Fang Xing didn't mind helping once.
Additionally, he was using Yu Hua as a test subject.
With his 'Great Restoration Technique', he could ensure Yu Hua's injuries healed and even prevent his cultivation from regressing.
After a brief recovery, Yu Hua could continue his attempt to forge the Dao Foundation.
Of course, without the protection of a spirit pill, failure meant certain death.
"Hmm?"
Seeing Yu Hua quickly recover from his pain, even his Yuan Qi injury didn't seem too severe, Fang Xing had a realization:
'As expected, my Advanced Nature Cure can aid in forging the Dao Foundation... If the timing is right, I can bring him back from the brink of death.'
'By repeatedly attempting it several times, I can eventually achieve the Dao Foundation...'
'But this kid doesn't stand a chance...'
