C76 Old age

In his previous life, that Daoist Master Chen Ji had also caused quite a stir when he advanced to the Dao Realm. The reason for this was that at that time, Daoist Master Chen's birthday was already near one hundred and forty years old.

After the age of over a hundred and twenty years, the peak of one's cultivation growth could be considered to have passed. If one did not cross the threshold of the Martial Disciple realm before the age of a hundred and twenty and become a Daoist Master, then one would be able to extend their lifespan for the next eighty years.

In reality, not to mention a hundred and twenty years old in the cultivation world, even after a hundred years old, cultivators that could advance to the Spiritual Master Realm were extremely rare.

In reality, although this Daoist Master Chen Ji was an inner disciple of the Heaven Shaking Sect before he advanced to become a Daoist Master, he was already over 120 years old and didn't have the potential to advance to the Dao Realm. Thus, he was sent to the Hundred Sparrow Mountain as the leader of the cultivators.

However, this Daoist Master Chen had never given up on trying to break through to the Dao Realm. He had always believed in the idea that while his body was being strengthened, the age limit could be delayed.

Just when everyone had almost forgotten about this old man who was obsessed with advancing to the Dao Realm, Chen Ji, on the other hand, was astounding. At the age of 140, he finally transformed his Qi into the Supreme Force and broke through the obstacles of the Dao Realm in one fell swoop.

After this Daoist Master Chen, the cultivation world in Yu County did give rise to a wave of emotions. Especially when one's lifespan grew longer, a cultivator who initially lost all hope of advancing would once again ignite hope for cultivation.

However, before this Daoist Master Chen died in his previous life, Yang Junshan had never heard of anyone who could successfully advance to the Dao Realm after 120 years of age.

The key to this kind of secret technique was not the effect on the body, but the effect of the secret technique itself. It could also extend the lifespan of a Martial Disciple by at least fifty years, causing the lifespan of a Martial Disciple to reach around two hundred and fifty years. This way, although this Daoist Master Chen was already one hundred and forty years old, according to a normal Martial Disciple cultivator, his lifespan would not even reach the age of one hundred and twenty.

Whether this conjecture was true or false was unknown to Yang Junshan from his previous life, but now, he had the chance to figure it out.

Ever since Yang Junshan recognized that this Chen Ji might be the Chen County Magistrate from his previous life, and after he had told Yang Junshan to come to Hundred Peacock Mountain to ask him about the matter of body forging, Yang Junshan had gone to Hundred Peacock Mountain alone to ask Chen Ji for advice on the secret of body forging.

This Chen Ji was indeed very familiar with the process of body tempering. Yang Junshan realized that this Senior Chen Ji had at least studied seven types of low-rank body forging technique, and had at least three low-rank body forging techniques; he had at least three or four mid-rank body forging techniques that he was familiar with, and he had cultivated two mid-rank body forging techniques.

During the process of Yang Junshan's consultation, although he had over a hundred years of experience in his previous life, and his experience might not be any worse than this, when Chen Ji listed out the series of flaws, mistakes, and advantages and disadvantages of the fist technique, Yang Junshan was shocked to the point that he broke out in cold sweat. Not only did he restrain his original thoughts, he also began to sincerely ask for advice from this old man.

What Yang Junshan didn't know was that Chen Ji was also shocked by Yang Junshan's talent in body forging. He had never seen a thirteen or fourteen year old youth, his body hadn't even fully matured yet but his body was already toughened to the point of being below that of a peak Mortal Realm cultivator.

The same thing made Chen Ji happy. During the course of their conversation, the youth in front of Chen Ji's eyes not only had extremely high comprehension skills, he was even able to point out some novel points of view. This caused Chen Ji to feel refreshed and refreshed.

Chen Ji originally didn't want Yang Junshan to be buried like this due to his talent in body forging techniques, so he wanted to give him some pointers, but unexpectedly, after several visits from Yang Junshan, during the process of communication, Chen Ji became more and more fond of him, and the things he taught also went from shallow to deep, and he was trying his best to teach Yang Junshan as if he was his own disciple.

Yang Junshan had originally come with an ulterior motive, but was gradually convinced by this old man's achievements in body forging technique. He began to sincerely seek his advice and treat him as a teacher.

During this period of more than a year, although Yang Junshan's cultivation had been progressing very slowly, his improvement in physical strength had been progressing at a tremendous pace. Now, Yang Tian's Seven Stones Iron Bow seemed to have become softer in his hands, and what made him even more happy was that although Yang Junshan had been secretive about the Mountain Lord Map, after more than a year of accumulation and enrichment, he found that he was getting closer and closer to cultivating the Tiger Leap in the Mountain Lord's Map.

The last time Yang Junshan had visited the old man in the Hundred Sparrow Mountain, Chen Ji had informed him that he was preparing to leave the Hundred Sparrow Mountain for closed-door cultivation. Next time, he could go to the county city to find him.

According to the memories he had of the county, as well as the address Chen Ji had given him, Yang Junshan easily found the location of Chen Ji. This was a small courtyard in a small alley; who would have thought that it was the residence of a high-ranked Martial Disciple of the Heaven Shaking Sect.

"Greetings, senior!" Yang Junshan respectfully saluted the elder from the bottom of his heart.

Chen Ji was still as lively and energetic as before. When he saw Yang Junshan, he sized him up from head to toe and asked, "Are you going on a long journey?"

Yang Junshan nodded and said, "That's right, my cultivation base has almost reached the Great Circle of the Spirit Enlightenment, my father has instructed me to return to the Yang family's old residence in the Green Stone Town, to choose my life magic for the fourth stage. Today, I came to visit you, and also bid you farewell.

In the past, Yang Junshan's grandfather was known as "Liehu", and in Chenyu County, "Liehu" Yang Lie was quite famous, he was a character of the same generation as Chen Ji, Chen Ji had also heard of this person's reputation, and when he heard that this person had failed to break through to the Zhenshu realm, he could not help but sigh, and there was no need for Yang Junshan to hide anything.

Chen Ji nodded. "I happen to be in secluded meditation as well. This cultivation is extremely important to me as well. You won't be able to see me for at least a year or so."

Yang Junshan thought about the time he had spent in his previous life. Chen Ji was probably going to go into seclusion in order to make a last stand for breaking through to the Mortal Realm.

Chen Ji laughed, "Originally, this old man was a little apprehensive. However, after teaching you body forging technique for more than a year, this old man has quite a bit of experience himself, especially your own strange theories. Although they are mostly baseless, the novelty and novelty of many points of view are still quite remarkable, allowing this old man to gain a bit of confidence."

Yang Junshan couldn't help but blush. The opinions that he used to communicate with Chen Ji were mostly the views of the future great change of the heaven and earth, and the future great fusion of the cultivation world. These views were not Yang Junshan's own things, and Chen Ji was merely a kind of cloth that couldn't be seen through.

Yang Junshan thought for a while and said, "I can't ask for help for a long time like senior. Junior definitely won't be able to cultivate as fast as before. Does senior have anything else to ask of me?"

Chen Ji nodded his head and said thoughtfully: "Most of the techniques of the Yang family in the Green Stone Town have been passed down to the Heaven Shaking Sect. In fact, most of the inheritance of the big and small Yu family clans and sects have been inextricably linked with the Heaven Shaking Sect. Hmm, I heard that your Yang family has an earth attribute cultivation technique, and among the earth attribute spells, there is an extremely common technique that few people are willing to learn.

"Earth Accumulating Technique?" Yang Junshan naturally knew about this spell, but very few people were willing to cultivate it, so he asked in confusion, "What is the use of practicing this spell?"

This technique focused on the caster and absorbed all the dirt and rocks around him into the caster. In the end, his entire body was covered by a thick layer of soil, turning him into a clumsy native.

It was said that the cultivator who created this technique at the beginning was able to move the soil during the process of the Spirit Creation Grounds. It was later discovered that this technique could also be used as a defensive technique.

However, this spell was simply too useless. If it was convenient to construct a field, one could use a large carriage to transport the spiritual earth, so why would it make one's head and face be covered? If it was used to defend against enemies, even one's own head would be covered, but if the opponent hit you everywhere, how could you defend against it?

Because no one cared about this spell, it was not hidden by anyone. Instead, it was widely spread in the cultivation world, but very few people were willing to cultivate it.

"Do you know the 'Ground Spirit Art'?" Chen Ji asked again.

"Of course!" Yang Junshan answered, "The Earth Escape Technique is an Earth element technique used to protect the life of Earth element cultivators, and it is also one of the hardest techniques to successfully cultivate in the cultivation world."

Yang Junshan paused for a moment. Seeing Chen Ji's smiling and nodding expression, he said in surprise, "Could it be that between the 'Earth Accumulating Technique' and the 'Earth Disappearing Technique'..."

Chen Ji nodded and said, "That's right. This old man had the good fortune to learn from a senior in the Dao Realm of the Heaven Shaking Sect who had mastered the 'Earth Escape Technique'. The 'Earth Reaching Technique' is derived from the 'Earth Escape Technique'.

Yang Junshan was overjoyed, "Thank you for your guidance!"

Chen Ji nodded, hesitated for a moment, and continued, "There are some things that used to be the business of your family, and I would not like to keep my mouth shut, but you little brat, since I have your kind intentions, I will just say a few more things." Chen Ji nodded, hesitated for a moment, then said, "Some things are the business of your family, and I would not want to keep my mouth shut, but you little brat, I will listen to your words, and you will understand why your father came to Mengyu County.
