Chapter 234 Heaven Borrows Life [4K] After leaving Yejia Island, Ye Linyuan crossed the vast ocean and unknowingly arrived at the former Lingsang Islands. Ever since Liu Xuanheng died at the stage of forming a golden elixir, the Liu family of immortals has almost been doomed to destruction. After that, Ye Linyuan helped the remaining members of the Liu family and took care of Liu Xuanheng's descendants for many years. However, Liu Xuanheng's descendants were incompetent and none of them succeeded in building a foundation for more than a hundred years. Therefore, no matter how well Ye Linyuan took care of them, the Liu family would not be able to take back the Lingsang Islands. Over the past hundred years, the Lingsang Islands have changed hands several times. There have been many highly skilled foundation-building cultivators who have moved in here, but most of them did not end up well in the end, and most of them died in wars under the Tianxing Sword Sect. To this day, this place is occupied by a foundation-building sect. It is said that it is a small sect formed by three foundation-building cultivators, and the strongest one among them is only in the middle stage of foundation-building. At this time, Ye Linyuan restrained his cultivation and set foot here without disturbing the foundation-building cultivators here. He came to an unnamed reef. And on the reef, a blood-red figure sat holding a piano, playing an unknown tune with the flick of his sleeves. Ye Linyuan did not disturb him, but just lowered his eyes calmly and listened quietly, feeling the interweaving of waves and piano music, and suddenly felt a sense of regret and sorrow coming.
After waiting for a long time, when the song ended, Ye Linyuan slowly opened his eyes and looked at the bloody figure calmly. He was a man in a blood-red robe. He had a tall and slender figure and an unparalleled handsome face. He could be described as a rare and peerless handsome man in the world. However, Ye Linyuan's jade-green pupils could see clearly that beneath the handsome face of the blood-robed man, there was an extremely ugly expression and appearance, and beneath his tall and straight figure, there was his hunched back. "Brother Blood Soul, you're fine." Ye Linyuan spoke slowly. He understood in his heart that this was actually the Blood Soul Taoist's true appearance. That ugly, hunchbacked appearance was simply caused by the erosion of the power of the Ancient Blood Soul Scripture, but after his cultivation reached the Golden Core stage, the Blood Soul Old Ghost was able to rely on his magic power to restore his original appearance. Unfortunately, the appearance maintained by magic power is ultimately just an illusion. Once the magic power is seriously depleted, he will eventually return to his ugly appearance. "Xuanyuan." At this time, the old ghost Xuehun spoke calmly. He put down the guqin in his hand, walked to the beach and stood side by side with Ye Linyuan. Looking at the vast sea, the old ghost of Blood Soul sighed and said, "I remember that Liu Xuanheng died here." "Yes, before I knew it, two decades have passed." Ye Linyuan spoke slowly, and then sighed, "Did you invite me here to commemorate him together?" The old ghost of Blood Soul did not answer, but sighed and said: "How long have we known each other?" Ye Linyuan hesitated for a moment, then said, "Two hundred years." "Yeah, it's been two hundred years. Time flies." The old ghost of Blood Soul spoke slowly, with a hint of emotion in his eyes. He picked up a stack of paper money, gave some to Ye Linyuan, and then started burning the paper money together. Seeing this, Ye Linyuan also took out a pot of wine, wanting to invite Liu Xuanheng, who was in hell, to drink it. The old ghost of Blood Soul shook his head, and then said calmly: "Xuan Heng once said that drinking alcohol will cause trouble, so he never drinks alcohol, and always drinks tea instead of wine." Ye Linyuan changed the tea as instructed. He could feel that although this old ghost Blood Soul was cruel and ruthless and was known as the number one devil in the Seven Domain Alliance, he was actually a very sentimental person in his heart.
However, in life, it is inevitable to experience separation and death. People who are too sentimental often have more regrets. After the paper money had burned and the tea had been finished, neither of them said anything more. Now the two are different, good and evil, and the paths they seek have long been different. Each has his own beliefs and aspirations, and some things can no longer be discussed. It was not until a long time later, when the old ghost Xuehun was about to leave, that he looked at Ye Linyuan and said firmly: "Brother Ye, from today on, you and I will be enemies to the death." Ye Linyuan did not answer, as if he did not hear it. After waiting for a long time, Ye Linyuan threw the last few offerings into the sea, then he clapped his hands, stood up and looked not far away. But the old ghost Blood Soul had already cut through the sky and disappeared into the vast ocean. "Eternal enemy?" He spoke slowly, his eyes showing a hint of solemnity, but his expression remained calm. In a trance, Ye Linyuan seemed to have everything planned out, as if everything was under his control and guesswork. "This Li Xuangeng is really decisive. No wonder Brother Changzhou once said that this man's mind is so meticulous and his methods are so ruthless that no one can match him." "According to this calculation, a fierce battle is probably about to begin." Ye Linyuan spoke slowly, his expression was exceptionally calm, yet contained a deep solemnity. He knew very well that Li Xuangeng was suspected to be a third-rank upper-grade astronomical master. After confirming the strength of the Ye family's immortal clan, if he made a plan again, it would definitely not be as easy as last time. "Time is on my side. If he wants to trap and kill me, I'm afraid he'll have to offer a bait that I can't refuse." "That's fine. Danger is also an opportunity. It's fun to take advantage of the situation." Ye Linyuan pondered in his heart, then slowly withdrew all his thoughts and strolled back to Yejia Island. After arriving at Yejia Island, Ye Linyuan immediately found Ye Yingxu and asked, "How is your accumulation? When can you break through to the Golden Core?" Ye Yingxu was a little surprised. He had secretly found a superior opportunity to form a golden elixir and was thinking of finding an excuse to break through to the golden elixir stage. He never expected that Ye Linyuan had already seen through it all. Just as he was hesitating, Ye Linyuan smiled and said, "You can cultivate with a high degree of success or failure, which shows that you are extremely talented. You must have good fortune protecting you." "After setting foot in the Blood Prison Secret Realm this time, there is no way we will return empty-handed." "Don't worry, that's your chance. Who among us cultivators doesn't have his or her own chance?" Seeing this, Ye Yingxu finally breathed a sigh of relief. He cupped his hands and said with a serious expression, "I have accumulated enough energy, and I can break through to the Golden Core at any time." "Then I'll take you to the secret breakthrough." Ye Linyuan spoke, and then took Ye Yingxu out of the Xuanyuan Sea and secretly went to an unnamed deserted island in the deep sea. After many years, he opened the cave again, allowing Ye Yingxu to break through to the Jindan realm. The reason why Yingxu was allowed to break through here was because compared to the huge breakthrough of Ye Xuqiu, the noise of Ye Yingxu's breakthrough was very small.
The volume of the technique of "The Numbers of Fullness and Void" is very special. It contains two special core secrets, namely "Rise and Fall, Success and Failure" and "Reality and Void, Roundness and Incompleteness". The second spell has four variations, namely, virtuality, reality, roundness and incompleteness. These four variations can be combined with each other to derive many variations. Among these various changes, the combination of emptiness and lack can cover up most of the movements of breaking through the golden elixir. It is also because of this that although Ye Yingxu’s combat power is not strong, he has extraordinary attainments in the functionality and Tianji spells. At this time, Ye Yingxu broke through the golden elixir realm. The four pseudo-divine powers continued to gather, and the endless Taoist essence and the power of the peeping fairy eyes were integrated into the golden elixir, and finally turned into an extremely powerful superior golden elixir. "Nine-patterned golden elixir - the fullness and emptiness are known." Ye Linyuan spoke slowly, a solemn look in his eyes. In terms of powerful magic power, Ye Yingxu's Yingxu Golden Pill cannot compare to Ye Linyuan's Rising Moon from the Sea, and in terms of invincible combat power, it cannot compare to Ye Xuqiu's Golden Lotus Born from the Sea of Fire. However, as a natural nine-patterned golden elixir, its special features are truly incredible. First of all, this superior golden elixir has its own magical power of "knowing the number of fullness and emptiness", which is a very special magical power of heaven. It is formed by the fusion of four pseudo-supernatural powers: rise and fall, success and failure, reality and illusion, borrowing life from heaven, and natural death. It is a top-notch minor supernatural power with infinite potential. Among them, [Prosperity and Decline, Success and Failure] is a technique of observing the weather, which can give insight into the future changes of things and reveal a trace of the ups and downs of fate. [Reality and Emptiness] is a fortune-telling technique that can see through a person's fate and destiny, dispel the fog of superficial splendor, peek into the inner truth and falsehood, and learn about a person's ultimate achievement. 【Borrowing Life from Heaven】 is a forbidden technique which can be performed only once in a lifetime. Once performed, one can snatch a lifetime from heaven and live a new life with the foundation of his prime. However, this technique is a forbidden technique, and the cost of using it is unbearable. Once you use it and use up all of your borrowed lifespan, you will be envied by the heavens, and after your death, you will never have the chance to reincarnate. The final [Peaceful Death] is the only magical spell in the ancient scripture of Yingxuyoushu at the foundation-building stage. The conditions for using this method are harsh, but once it is used it can deprive others of their lifespan. Even the ability of the Tianji secret technique to resist this method will be greatly reduced. However, this technique is also very costly. If the enemy being cursed has a high level of cultivation, then using this technique will also consume one's own lifespan. These four core spells can all be considered extremely core and special spells. The top-level magical power [Yield and Empty] formed by the fusion of the four core spells is naturally also a very special top-level minor magical power. This magical power is extremely powerful and has two effects. First, it reduces the power of the enemy's divine ability by one level. Secondly, it can increase the power of your own divine ability by a small level. In other words, if Ye Yingxu's cultivation reaches the great perfection of the Golden Elixir and he cultivates the quasi-fourth-level divine power of heaven, then he will even be able to directly exert a power comparable to the great divine power of the Hinayana. "Such a mysterious innate magical power, this is indeed an ancient magic." "Unfortunately, I only have the first half. You will need to find the second half after Yuanying on your own in the future." After realizing the mystery of Ye Yingxu's golden elixir magical power, Ye Linyuan couldn't help but smile. Ye Yingxu couldn't help but smile, because of the agreement between him and the incomplete spiritual treasure, he couldn't tell Ye Linyuan that he had obtained the second half from the incomplete spiritual treasure. But since he got half of the volume, he didn't feel any psychological pressure, so he smiled and said, "The Tianji lineage depends on chance and luck. If I have a destiny with this lineage, it shouldn't be difficult to find the second half."
"Indeed." Ye Linyuan nodded, then stood up and looked in the direction of the Seven Domain Alliance and said, "Our war is approaching, and I'm afraid I'll need your help next." Ye Yingxu nodded, and then said thoughtfully: "Don't worry, clan leader. I am not good enough in frontal combat, but I am an expert in injuring people with spells." "..." Seeing this, Ye Linyuan didn't say much. With Ye Yingxu's strength, if he were to use the technique of longevity, even a middle-stage Jindan master would not be able to withstand it and would easily have sixty years of his lifespan shortened. However, the spell of dying peacefully is extremely costly to activate, and it should not be used unless it is necessary. But as a master of celestial secrets, Ye Yingxu definitely practiced more than just this spell. Ye Yingxu has practiced both blood curse and soul curse. With his talent, it should not be difficult for him to reach the level of having a glimpse of minor supernatural powers after practicing for another ten years. By that time, with the power of Yingxu plus a small realm, these small magical powers of the initial realm will be able to exert considerable power. Moreover, Yingxu Youshu is essentially a method that is biased towards the water and wood spiritual roots, and it also has the effect of increasing lifespan and restoring a small amount of lifespan. Ye Yingxu is in the Jindan realm, and his lifespan is about 20% longer than that of an ordinary Jindan. Even if he does not take longevity pills, he can probably live for nearly a thousand years. Although the speed of restoring life span is not as fast as that of Cang Hai Ming Yue Gong, it can still achieve about one year of recovery every ten years. In this way, as long as Ye Yingxu does not abuse this magical power of dying at a ripe old age, he should still have a sufficient lifespan in the Jindan realm. In fact, Ye Yingxu's skills do not add much to his lifespan. The skills of Chu Lingxi and Zhou Yuwan are both mainly advanced skills of wood spiritual roots, which can increase the lifespan by about 20% in the foundation-building stage. That is to say, theoretically, the two of them could live for three hundred and sixty years while in the foundation-building stage. If one breaks through the Golden Core realm, his life span can be increased by 30%, and he can live to nearly 1,200 years. This is not a special longevity technique. It is said that the top longevity technique, the Wanzai Changqing Gong, can increase lifespan by 50% in the Qi training stage, and even double it in the foundation building stage. If one reaches the Nascent Soul stage, his life span can be tripled, and he can become a legendary being that lasts nearly ten thousand years. In his previous life, Ye Linyuan had heard of such a person, who had lived for more than 6,000 years with the help of the Wanzai Changqing Technique. He was an antique among the Yuanying True Lords and one of the oldest living fossils in the entire Haotian Realm. You know, compared to other old antiques who have fallen into a state of dormancy and survived in a self-sealing way, this one has been active in the Haotian Ancient Realm and has the combat power of the late Nascent Soul stage or above. However, this top-level longevity technique is used at all costs to prolong life, sacrificing combat power and many characteristics, resulting in the lowest strength among the same level. Therefore, people who practice longevity techniques find it difficult to obtain resources for practice in the early stages. They can only accumulate slowly over the years and improve their methods with external objects such as puppets and formations. Of course, even with these shortcomings, the Wanzai Changqing Gong can still be regarded as a heaven-defying martial art. In this life, Ye Linyuan chose to practice the Cang Hai Ming Yue Gong because he did not obtain the Wan Zai Chang Qing Gong in his previous life. Otherwise, he might have hesitated about how to make the choice. After all, a lifespan that is several times longer is enough to make any Nascent Soul True Lord excited. (End of this chapter)
