Chapter 9: Breaking the Sea of Suffering (Asking for Support)
Chapter 9 finally breaks the sea of suffering
Three years later, in front of the dirt slope where Xiang Yu and others practiced daily in Huiji County, a group of people were surrounding a wooden table and erecting seedlings. Among them, Yi Xiaochuan and Nie Yu sat opposite each other, and each of them was full of wine bowls in front of them. The rich aroma of wine spread out, making many onlookers swallow their saliva.
"Come on, Ogawa! Drink him down, I've got your back! ”
"Brother Ogawa, you will win! Drink him down! ”
"Brother Nie Yu, don't lose to Xiaochuan!"
"Little Brother Nie, I'm all over you, you're going to let me turn the tables!" ……
"Please!" In the shouting of a group of people, Yi Xiaochuan and Nie Yu picked up the wine bowl at the same time and drank the wine in one go!
Putting the empty wine bowl aside, the two of them picked up another bowl of wine again! Bowl after bowl, but in a moment, a stack of empty bowls was piled up at the hands of the two of them.
The two of them drank a drink that had been distilled once, and the alcohol content was close to forty degrees. Drinking wine as water like this suddenly makes people dizzy!
"Poof!" Halfway through the seventh bowl, a surging rush of wine surged from the lower abdomen to the top of the head. The feeling of dizziness made Yi Xiaochuan squirt wine every minute, and the next moment he stumbled onto the table.
"Nie Yu drink! Xiao Chuan can't do it, you will win after drinking this bowl! As soon as Yi Xiaochuan fell, the people around him immediately coaxed. Especially the few people who pressed Nie Yu, their old faces were flushed with excitement!
Before the two of them drank, they opened a gambling game, and Nie Yu's side was to pay one for two. If Nie Yu wins, they can also make a small profit. For the support of these people, Nie Yu did not disappoint them. The seventh bowl of wine was not left of the seventh bowl of wine...... The winner is decided!
"Ogawa! If you lose, say I'm handsome...... No, hurry up and lend me the tiger talisman! Putting down the wine bowl and patting Yi Xiaochuan's head, Nie Yu looked proud.
As the saying goes, the three irons of life are "together through the window, together with the gun, together PGC". Although there were many collisions between the two of them when they first met, after three years of getting along day and night, Nie Yu and Yi Xiaochuan can already be called friends!
"Tiger Talisman! What Tiger Talisman? Raising his head, Yi Xiaochuan's eyes were hazy, and his throat seemed to be on fire. The wine was so fierce that he felt like everything was spinning in front of him!
"You pretend less! Give me the bet, if you don't give it to me, you'll rob it! Groping towards the other party's neck, Nie Yu directly pulled the tiger talisman down. In the original play, Yi Xiaochuan was hung up several times because of this thing. There is no doubt that there is a magical power in this thing!
"It hurts!" The tiger talisman was forcibly pulled down, and Xiao Chuan grinned in pain. Just as he was about to quarrel with Nie Yu as usual, the sound of horses' hooves suddenly came from not far away. Suddenly, Nie Yu left Yi Xiaochuan and rushed towards the comer!
"Brother Yu, it's been hard all the way!" Stopping the galloping horse, Nie Yu's gaze swept over the other party's backpack. Xiang Yu walked for half a month, and sure enough, he brought what he wanted!
"What a hurry are you kid! With my escort, your stuff can't fly! Seeing that Nie Yu was pulling and leaning, he stopped the fast horse with his bare hands, and Xiang Yu knew that his little brother's strength was becoming more and more unfathomable!
For three years, Nie Yu's daily practice could not hide from Xiang Liang and the others. At the beginning, Yi Xiaochuan also said that he was "playing tricks". But gradually, Nie Yu's perception became more and more keen, and his strength became greater and greater!
An ordinary person relied on cultivation, and he was stunned to cultivate the "power of the three bulls" within a year. This undoubted fact really shocked several people, and even Yi Xiaochuan couldn't help but believe in the existence of cultivation.
"Can you not be in a hurry? I've been stuck on the bottleneck for half a year now! If I don't break through, my situation will get worse and worse as I get older! Sighing without a trace, Nie Yu didn't say this sentence clearly.
There is some kind of invisible suppression in the Heaven Covering World that is preventing the cultivation of living beings, and in the Mythical World, this suppression has been strengthened a lot! For this reason, Nie Yu had to open up the bitter sea even bigger in order to impact towards the bitter sea realm.
There are pros and cons to doing so. The good thing is that the bigger the sea of suffering, the better the foundation! For example, Ye Fan and his party in the original book activated the bitter sea because of the ancient forbidden land and expanded the bitter sea to a certain extent, so they were contested by the six major caves.
As long as these people become cultivators, they will be the elite elements of the same level, and they will take advantage of them in the early stage of cultivation. It is precisely because of this that almost all the survivors of the Nine Dragons Coffin have been accepted as disciples by the elders of the Six Great Cave Heavens! (This point is not explicitly stated in the book, and I guessed based on the situation of Pang Bo, Li Xiaoman, and Zhang Ziling.) )
Although the greater sea of suffering has many benefits, the disadvantages are also obvious. The first drawback is the bottleneck that Nie Yu is facing now, so that the wheel of life and the sea of suffering are combined!
The cultivation methods in the world all start from the sea of suffering! And the essence of cultivating the Sea of Bitterness is actually to cultivate the Wheel of Life after the Sea of Suffering and the Wheel of Life merge, and then use the Wheel of Life to drive the Sea of Suffering!
Because of Nie Yu's age when he cultivated, the Wheel of Life was already a grade worse than that of a young cultivator. Now that the wheel of life is combined with the unconventional large-scale sea of suffering, isn't that sincere? It's like an old grandfather has a stand-alone game of tens of G installed on his computer, so is the configuration brought?
If you want to break through this bottleneck, it is necessary to strengthen the wheel of life! Since a year ago, Nie Yu has no longer opened up the sea of suffering, but has been using the Xuanfa in the "Tao Sutra" to temper the wheel of life wholeheartedly. Relying on the continuous consumption of medicinal herbs, Nie Yu's wheel of life has changed greatly, but there is still a thin line between the distance and the sea of suffering!
It was the difference between this line, but it became a moat that trapped Nie Yu further. Half a year ago, Nie Yu's wheel of life seemed to have reached a certain limit, no matter how many medicinal herbs he took, it was useless! After a few explorations, Nie Yu realized that the medicinal herbs he had swallowed were not useless, but were accumulated in the wheel of life waiting for transformation!
This discovery made Nie Yu excited. As the saying goes, "what is lacking makes up for what", since the effect of general herbs is not good, then use hundreds of years of old medicines!
Relying on the Xiang family's intelligence network, Nie Yu got the whereabouts of a six-hundred-year-old mountain ginseng a month ago. So he specially invited Xiang Yu, the "protagonist of the times", and asked him to help him get this thing!
"What you want!" Seeing his brother staring at his package, his eyes were about to pop out. Xiang Yu, who originally wanted to tease Nie Yu, hurriedly threw down the box on his back. Although he is a little arrogant, he really doesn't say anything to the brothers around him!
I took the box and opened it, only to see a large ginseng four inches long lying quietly in it. The thick body of ginseng is lined with folds, like a mountain with peaks and peaks, forming layers of lines!
The ginseng whiskers around the ginseng body are densely packed and "long and smooth", and there is no gratuitous damage. The old way of digging ginseng and the proper preservation can be seen.
"Good, good, good! That's what I need. Saying hello three times in a row, Nie Yu's excitement was beyond words. The moment he opened the box, he felt the vigorous life spirit, and this faintly human-shaped old ginseng was exactly what he needed now!
"Brother Yu, I'm going to retreat, master, you can help me ask for a leave! Also, don't let anyone near my house until I get out of the customs......" Dropping such a sentence, Nie Yu trotted back to his house to tinker with the matter of the medicinal bath!
It has been half a year since he cultivated an inch, and during this period, Nie Yu has tried a lot to prepare. The bucket of medicinal bath in front of him was one of his preparations, although it was still the recipe for the Yijin Pulp Washing Soup, but Nie Yu had replaced everything with medicinal materials that were more than fifty years old. There is no doubt that the effect of this medicinal bath will be far greater than he imagined!
"Almost enough water! Take a dip first to make sure your container doesn't burst! This ginseng has been around for more than 500 years, and I'm afraid I can't afford to consume the essence of it. To be on the safe side, I'll cut it into several pieces and eat them piece by piece! ”
Quickly concocted the medicinal bath, Nie Yu stripped naked and jumped in. It had been three and a half years since he came into contact with cultivation, and he didn't want to wait for a moment. Nie Yu wants to become a cultivator in the shortest possible time!
Entering the water, Nie Yu felt like a needle prick all over his body. Subconsciously, he just wanted to jump out! However, Nie Yu relied on strong perseverance to endure it. kept muttering, "If you eat hard, you will become a master!" This sentence.
One stick of incense, two sticks of incense, three sticks of incense...... After persisting for half an hour, Nie Yu's whole body was numb from pain. Feeling the same, he gritted his teeth and climbed up from the bucket. It wasn't until he climbed out of the bath bucket in embarrassment that Nie Yu noticed that there was a little more blood in the water of the medicinal bath.
After soaking in the medicinal bath for two and a half years in a row, Nie Yu already has the "power of nine cows". And this enhanced version of the "Yijin Washing Pulp Soup" made him break through again and have the "power of nine cows and two tigers"!
"My head is a little groggy, but I can feel that my body is in better shape than ever! The hour after the medicinal bath is a good time to cultivate, I want to seize this opportunity......" Putting his coat on his body, Nie Yu didn't care about anything else, and sat on the bed with his ass.
The content of the beginning of the "Tao Sutra" came to mind, and Nie Yu cut off one-third of the old mountain ginseng with a vertical palm! After a period of gobbling up, Nie Yu suddenly felt like his lower abdomen was on fire.
The life essence contained in the mountain ginseng is surging like a tide, because he can't bear this excessive amount of essence, some of Nie Yu's acupuncture points are releasing a faint "divine light"! Fortunately, he didn't eat the whole ginseng arrogantly before, otherwise Nie Yu would have to be blown up on the spot!
Quickly running the mystical method in the "Tao Sutra", Nie Yu frantically refined the essence of life to strengthen his wheel of life. Relying on this huge medicinal power tempering, the wheel of life on the verge of transformation suddenly changed. In just one cup of tea, the size of the wheel of life has more than doubled!
Controlling the ever-expanding Wheel of Life and the Bitter Sea Fusion, Nie Yu could feel the slightest hint of divine power being born. The process of merging the Wheel of Life and the Sea of Suffering is like burying a seed in the soil, and then the seed takes root and sprouts out of the soil!
That is a qualitative change, a fundamental transformation of life "from the ordinary to the Tao"! This change represents that Nie Yu has truly embarked on the path of cultivation!
Time passed unconsciously, and the life essence provided by the old ginseng for Nie Yu was absorbed. When these essences were exhausted, Nie Yu suddenly opened his eyes.
At this moment, a point of light the size of a bean grain appeared in Nie Yu's lonely, lifeless sea of suffering. Bitter Sea Realm, broken!
