The Monk

Chapter 576: Longevity Pill

Seeing the big tiger's downcast expression, Zhang Wen said comfortingly: "But you live a long life, you can live for thousands of years casually, and the top monks of mankind can only live for 1,500 years with the best cultivation. You can't compare at all. Besides, fifteen hundred years sounds like a long time, but in fact, most of it is spent pretending to be a turtle, hiding in a remote corner, practicing hard, surviving for a hundred or so years to advance to the first level, and another hundred or so. I will be promoted to another level next year. It sounds like I will live longer, but in fact I am pretending to be a living dead. Compared with the dead, I am just more breathless. How can you be so carefree? "

Hu Ping rolled his eyes at him and said, "Don't complain to me." He threw the jade slip back.

Zhang Aixin said: This is not to complain, but to comfort you. Holding the jade slip in his right hand, he waved it gently like a fan.

Hu Ping looked at the jade slip and said calmly: "That's what life is like." Then he asked: "Those people are looking for medicine to refine the elixir of heaven. Is it their time?" Zhang Ain said yes. Hu Ping said: "There is a kind of elixir in the jade slip. Have you seen it? The one called Shou Dan."

Zhang Ain thought about it and had seen it, but he just glanced at it at that time. He mainly focused on the Tianshen Dan, so he didn't pay attention. At this time, Hu Ping reminded him and suddenly remembered it. He picked up the jade slip and read it again. He was overjoyed. Said: "Do you still have this kind of elixir?"

Shoudan, as the name suggests, is a panacea for extending life. No matter the level of cultivation, when your life span is approaching, taking the first pill can extend your life by a hundred years. Taking the second pill will have its effect halved, extending your life by fifty years. The effect of the third pill will be halved again, and your life will be extended by twenty-five years. That is to say, if the longevity elixir is sufficient, one can extend one's life by nearly two hundred years.

He thought very well, in case a certain venerable failed to advance after taking the Heavenly God Pill, he could use the Longevity Pill to live longer.

The recipe for the elixir states that nine different types of ten thousand-year-old herbs are needed to refine the longevity elixir. Each of them is a rare thing in the world. No wonder Zuo Shi didn’t even mention this elixir. It’s just too much of a ten-thousand-year-old herb. It's so rare that it's almost impossible to exist, let alone nine kinds of it.

But the fact that the spiritual grass is simply impossible to exist does not mean that Zhang Ai does not have it. Not only does it exist, but there are many of it. Since Lin Sen gave him many thousands-year-old herbs, he has rarely used them and has no chance to use them. A long time ago, he only took out a few herbs for auction and caused chaos in the world. Cultivators all over the world have become his enemies, so until now these The precious herbs are still lying quietly in his jade box.

Thinking that he could make a longevity elixir, Zhang Fei's face lit up with joy. Hu Ping saw it clearly and said coldly: "Don't be too happy too early. The function of the longevity pill is only to extend the life span. After taking it, a cultivator's cultivation will stagnate and there will be no improvement, let alone a breakthrough to advance to the Po Ying Transformation God. It's nothing. Good medicine." He paused and asked, "Do you have these nine kinds of grass? And they are more than ten thousand years old?"

Zhang Ain's expression darkened, but then he thought that without the longevity pill, he would not even have two hundred years, so he smiled and said: "In short, one more day to live is one day." Then he continued Hu Ping's question and said frankly: "All of them, you have need?"

Hu Ping snorted: "I want herbal medicine, why should I ask you for it? What kind of medicine is there on Yuanshan Mountain? Didn't you also come to ask me for medicine?" But he was very satisfied that Zhang was afraid of confessing to him.

Zhang Weijing was talking about the function of the longevity pill and asked seriously: "I want to know whether the refinement of the spiritual grass into a pill will help your cultivation?"

Now it was the big tiger's turn to be silent, and after a while he said: "Do you know how long I have lived? I have reached the pinnacle of cultivation as a monster. No monster can be more powerful than me, unless, unless I can also become a god."

"Can't you cultivate to the stage of becoming a god?" Zhang Ai asked.

The realms of monsters and beasts are different from those of humans, but Hu Ping knew the meaning of Zhang Ain's question: "Actually, I don't care whether I can become a god, I just want to go outside and see how prosperous and beautiful the human world is, and how beautiful the human world is. I don't know how to interact with people. Although the tide in Foggy Valley every sixty years gives me the opportunity to meet many cultivators, these people are not human to me. You are an exception. I want to see them more. Looking at the mortals in this world, I heard they only have a lifespan of a few decades. Their time is so short. I don’t know what they will do and how they will spend it.”

Zhang was afraid to think about it and said, "There are many people who are living a very hard life."

Hu Ping said: "It is not up to you to judge whether you are suffering or not. You are not qualified to say suffering. If you are talking about suffering, why not talk about monsters, wild beasts, and domestic animals? Compared with them, what kind of suffering is human life?"

There was no way to refute this, so he had to ask: "Is there any elixir that can help you advance? If there is, I will look for it outside and bring it to you when the time comes." After saying this, he thought of Lin Sen and the dolls. , I once said at the beginning that when I become stronger, I will give you a home outside and let you roam freely without having to hide underground to survive. But it has been more than two hundred years, and I am just a mid-level Nascent Soul monk. I have to rely on ice crystals to protect myself. How can I protect them? He couldn't help but let out a long sigh, took a big sip of wine, and then remained silent.

Hu Ping had been in a low mood since he came out of the Self-Refining Temple. Now he saw that Zhang Ai was also depressed and asked: "What's the matter? Do you need help?" Zhang Ai shook his head slowly. Apart from the matter of Lin Sen and Fat Baby, No one can help me.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Hu Ping laughed at himself: "Yes, I can't get out, how can I help you?"

Zhang Frightened: "It's not that, it's the one thing I promised others, but I haven't done it yet. Let's not talk about this first. Let's talk about the elixir. Is there any elixir that can help you advance?"

Hu Ping replied definitely: "No, since the emergence of the God Refining Valley, I am the fourth monster to reach the highest level of cultivation. You have seen the first three monsters. In a few days, I will be the fourth ”

Zhang Ping understood that the big tiger was talking about the three skeletons on Yuanshan Mountain. At the same time, he also understood the purpose of calling him here, which was to tell him that he was approaching his end. As a result, my mood became depressed, and everyone I knew was waiting to die. No matter how high my spiritual practice was, it didn't matter. Can you resist the laws of heaven and earth? He said calmly: "Drink."

The big tiger toasted to him and drank with him, and became drunk again that day.

After waking up the next day, Big Tiger said to Zhang Afraid: "Let's go, I will take you to find medicine."

Zhang Ping was about to say this. He planned to send the medicine back to Zuo Shi and others first, and then come back to accompany Big Tiger. Seeing Hu Ping make a decision, he saved his breath and nodded: "Thank you."

Hu Ping laughed loudly: "If I have anything to thank, I should go around and see more. When I die, I won't be able to see it even if I want to." He greeted the grass spirit and paid the order, and the three of them went on the road to search for herbs.

On the way, Zhang was afraid to ask about the big wild boar, and Hu Ping smiled again: "You guys are so lucky. That guy is the laziest in the world, and he can be met by you like this? I admire him."

Zhang Wen said helplessly: "I heard from some of the venerables that I have met that big guy before. Is it because we are collectively unlucky?"
