Chapter 106: Qimen Eight Trigrams Cauldron

  Ye Feng looked at the many humanoid demonic beasts in front of him and thought to himself: If only he had this many underlings, it would be great. It would save time and effort, and wouldn't hinder his cultivation. Just thinking about it made him feel wonderful.

  "Follow me." Luoyunfei said to Yefeng with a wave of his hand.

  Ye Feng swaggered along with Luo Yunfei as they turned a circle inside the cave, just like selecting goods in a supermarket. As they walked, Luo Yunfei picked out some demon beasts, which obediently followed behind them.

  After a round, Lu Yunfei counted and selected a total of eighteen demon beasts. He smiled at Ye Feng and said: "I specially chose eighteen 'Dao Bing' for you, so that you can use the seven 'North Dipper Xuanjin Ding' together, let them help you fan the fire, this way it won't delay your cultivation and you can also refine the elixir, very convenient."

  Ye Feng's heart suddenly burst into bloom, thinking: Master really thought of everything, this is so much more convenient. Later on, he only needs to focus on cultivation and just prepare the medicinal materials and fire control needed for alchemy, letting these demonic beasts help with fanning the flames, and he can just wait to receive the elixir.

  As he thought of this, Ye Feng's eyes widened as he sized up the eighteen 'Dao Bing' in front of him: wolves with their tongues hanging out, frogs croaking loudly, roosters strutting proudly, and rats with cunning glints in their beady eyes... each one was about the same size as a person, but not a single one had any human-like features, they were all completely in their primitive forms.

  Ye Feng's excited mood couldn't help but feel a little disappointed, furrowing his brow as he thought: What kind of demon beast is this? It's simply the animal kingdom! Compared to Master's humanoid Dao soldiers, the eighteen Dao soldiers in front of him were not even comparable to wild beasts, let alone having any human-like appearance.

  Ye Feng shook his head helplessly and said, "Can these miscellaneous soldiers given by Master be of any use? Don't even mention helping to stir up trouble, it's even a problem whether they can understand human language or not."

  Lu Yun furrowed his brow and thought to himself: I expected as much from you, this kind of Taoist soldier is truly rare, even among the authentic disciples there aren't more than ten people who can have eight of them, let alone eighteen all at once, so just be content with what you have for now.

  Thinking of this, Luoyunfei smiled and said: "Don't look at them as being in their primitive form, but they all have a hint of spiritual intelligence inside, and human language can still be understood. My old man's those demon beasts have long been tamed by me, it's hard for them to listen to others' commands again, while these are different, they are easy to surrender to you. When your cultivation is high, you can go catch some good demon beasts yourself, with your current cultivation, these are already very good."

  Ye Feng shrugged his shoulders and thought: having something is better than nothing, at least in the future he would have someone to fan the flames when refining pills.

  "Thank you, Master," Ye Feng said with a bow: "So, if I cultivate to a higher level in the future, can I catch some high-level demon beasts to help out?"

  Lu Yun shook his head and said, "It's not that simple. You need to have something on hand that can make him submit, such as the 'Kui Mu Wolf Pelt' you obtained in the past, which is enough to make many wolfmen and evil spirits who want to achieve immortality surrender. Now, I will give these Dao soldiers to you."

  Lu Yunfei took out a jade slip the size of a mahjong tile, made a hand seal, and muttered to himself. Eighteen beams of light appeared above his head, shining brightly. The eighteen beams of light slowly converged into one, and with a whooshing sound, they entered the jade slip in Lu Yunfei's hand.

  "This jade slip is a tenth-level spiritual symbol," said Luo Yunfei, holding the jade slip in his hand: "Their primordial spirits are all contained within this jade slip. Only a tenth-level spiritual symbol made from the jade slip can absorb the primordial spirit of the Dao soldiers."

  Luo Yunfei handed the jade slip to Ye Feng, and once again made a hand seal. To his surprise, Ye Feng found that the jade slip in his hand was slowly melting like an ice cube.

  Luo Yun stroked his beard and said, "I have already sealed the eighteen Taoist soldiers' primordial spirits inside your body. As long as you mobilize your true energy, you can shatter the jade slip in your palm, and the eighteen Taoist soldiers' primordial spirits will also disintegrate into nothingness, and their bodies will die along with them."

  Ye Feng felt like the God of Death, able to control the life and death of the eighteen Taoist soldiers, and could also command them. He couldn't wait to try it out, pointing at the eighteen Taoist soldiers in front of him and saying: "Fight each other"

  The soldiers in front of him immediately entwined with each other, all baring their teeth and being extremely fierce.

  Stop

  The eighteen Taoist priests resumed their neat appearance from earlier.

  Ye Feng nodded repeatedly with a smile and said: "Yes, really obedient."

  Luo Yun stroked his whiskers and said, "These Taoist soldiers have all been trained well. When they encounter danger, just order them to fight, and they will naturally form various battle arrays on their own, without needing you to personally go forward and command."

  Ye Feng smiled and thought: Not only can you help me refine the pill, but also help fight, what a good helper.

  Luo Yunfei took out the 'Three Thousand Fire Crow Bag' and smiled, saying: "Just now, I used the formation you drew to refine this artifact. Due to insufficient materials, it can only be upgraded to a high-quality artifact for now. You take it first."

  Ye Feng took over the Huo Ya Bao and thought to himself: A top-grade artifact is also barely passable, at least it can summon more than a thousand Fire Crows.

  "Thank you, Master," Ye Feng said with a bow: "I'm almost ready too, I should go take a look at how Mu Shizi's preparations are going."

  Lu Yunfei nodded silently and didn't say a word.

  Ye Feng was about to turn around and leave when he found the eighteen Taoist soldiers closely following behind him. Ye Feng thought: It's not a good idea for them to follow me like this all the way, is it? The Qiankun bag given by Zi Xiaozhen had almost everything in it, but these eighteen Taoist soldiers, which were about the same size as humans, couldn't possibly fit inside. If only there was another Qiankun bag...

  Ye Fengling's eyes sparkled as he smiled and said, "Young one still has to trouble Master with one more thing, hoping Master can give a Qiankun bag, so these little demons can be put in first."

  Lu Yunfei shook his head helplessly, thinking to himself: You little scamp is going to fleece me dry on this trip, do you think I'm as rich as Zi Xiaoshu?

  "There is no Qiankun bag." Luoyun flew stroking his beard and said: "However, I can give you another tripod, follow me."

  Ye Feng was perplexed, furrowing his brow as he followed Luo Yunfei out of the "Dong Zhong Xian Fu", with eighteen Dao soldiers following behind him, until they arrived in front of that tall and eye-catching square tripod.

  Ye Feng's eyes narrowed, and he glanced at Luo Yunfei, thinking to himself: "I'm not going to believe you're actually planning to give me this giant tripod, are you? Even if it can hold all the demonic beasts inside, I still can't be expected to lug this huge thing around with me everywhere I go, can I? Are you trying to exhaust me to death?"

  Luo Yun stroked his whiskers and said, "This is the 'Qimen Bagua Ding'. This cauldron can hold both objects and people. A person sitting inside it can use their own spiritual methods to control its flight. It can also be loaded with a large number of spell stones and spirit symbols, using the power of these two things to propel its flight."

  Ye Feng bitterly smiled and said: "Master, don't joke around, this tripod is not bad, but how can I move it? Even if I could move it, I couldn't carry a giant tripod around all day, could I?"

  Luo Yunfei patted Ye Feng's shoulder and laughed loudly: "Haha... what's the hurry, old man hasn't finished speaking yet. The 'Qimen Bagua Ding' can be enlarged or shrunk at will, and after shrinking, it can also be inserted into the body. When needed, it can be taken out at any time."

  Can it be inserted into the body?! Ye Feng was shocked and thought: A Fang Ding as big as a building can be inserted into the body, the wonders of magic are endless!

  Ye Feng cupped his hands and said: "I'll have to trouble Master to infuse it into my body."

  Luoyun Fei nodded, and with a casual pinch of his fingers, the gigantic Qimen Bagua Cauldron in front of him gradually shrunk down to the size of a tea bowl, landing in Luoyun Fei's hand.

  Right after that, the two sat cross-legged on the ground. Luoyunfei took out a jade slip spirit symbol and pinched out a hand seal with his hands. The spirit symbol slowly rose into the air, transforming into purple auspicious clouds, sprinkling down rays of purple light, as if silkworms were weaving cocoons, layer by layer wrapping around them in the middle.

  Luo Yunfei silently recited the incantation, and the shrunken Qimen Bagua Ding in his hand slowly flew to Ye Feng's chest. Through the white clothes, it gradually seeped inside.

  Ye Feng hastily pulled open his chest clothes, and the tea bowl-sized square tripod had already penetrated into his skin, shining faintly at his chest.

  Luo Yunfei retracted his magical powers, wiped the sweat from his forehead and let out a long sigh as the purple light shield gradually dissipated.

  Ye Feng touched his own chest, just like before, without any special feeling. He looked at Luo Yunfei sitting opposite him, whose face had turned pale and was sweating profusely, looking a bit weak.

  Ye Feng hastily went forward and helped Luo Yunfei up from the ground, saying: "Master, what's wrong with you?"

  Luo Yunfei stood up and smiled, saying: "Nothing, just now I activated the Purple Void Cloud Light Formation, merging the Qimen Bagua Ding with your body. From now on, when you activate your true energy, you can bring out the Qimen Bagua Ding from within your body."

  Ye Feng anxiously asked: "Master, you've activated this spell array! Does that mean it will shorten our lifespan like you said last time?"

  "It's just a hundred years of life, with my cultivation, I have enough lifespan for thousands of years, what's the big deal about losing a hundred years?" Luo Yunfei replied very casually, as if losing a hundred years of life was like losing a single strand of hair.

  Ye Feng thought of Zi Xiao's words in his heart:

  The initial stage of the physical body has a lifespan of 100 years, the Qi-refining stage becomes 200 years, like my current Golden Body stage already has a lifespan of 300 years, the Condensing Method stage will become 500 years, the Golden Elixir stage has a lifespan of 1,000 years, the Soul Refining stage is 2,000 years, the Embryonic Breath stage is 3,500 years, while the Earth Shattering stage's lifespan won't change. Until the Heaven Opening stage then there will be a lifespan of 5,000 years, the Spiritual Communication stage has a lifespan of 6,000 years, and like Zixiao True Person that kind of Embryonic Breath high expert, has a lifespan of 9,000 years...

  Every time you break through to a layer of cultivation, your lifespan will change to the corresponding stage's year limit. For example, if you break through from the Golden Body Stage to the Condensation Method Stage, your lifespan will change from 300 years to 500 years. The remaining years from the previous 300-year lifespan, no matter how many years are left, will all be recalculated from zero. In the future, without taking elixirs or medicines, you can live for another 500 years.
