In the world of The Immortal Cultivation Story, a cultivator in the Void Refinement Stage can already fully call upon the vital energy of heaven and earth, unite the five elements of his spiritual roots, and merge his body with heaven and earth, becoming immortal.

But every three thousand years, the Nascent Soul in his body needs to avoid thunder tribulations in order to remain immortal.

If one wants to advance to the fusion stage, one needs to continuously strengthen the soul and primordial infant, and eventually overcome the inner demon calamity before entering the fusion stage.

At first glance, it seems that as long as one finds the right method, one can successfully break through to the Nascent Soul Stage and the Fusion Stage.

But things are often easier said than done.

When he was practicing in his small world before, he also tried to experience the feeling of the unity of the five elements.

But that kind of thing is so vague that no matter how hard you try to comprehend it, you have no clue.

He estimated there were two possibilities.

Either the rules of the human world are not enough to break through to the Void Refinement Stage, so one can only go to the upper realm.

Or maybe what he thought in his mind was too different from the specific method of breakthrough.

After all, spiritual practice cannot be taken for granted; it is a complete and rigorous system. If you make any mistake in it, the whole thing will be wrong.

Now Qin Feng has not yet perfected many of the skills for the Spirit Transformation Stage, and he is still a long way to go before he can make a breakthrough.

Qin Feng currently has no way to verify these two possibilities. All he can do is practice first.

So Qin Feng found a place in the mountains and used it as a cave for practicing.

At first, his idea was to drill deeper, so that the probability of being discovered would be much lower.

But as he dug, Qin Feng felt something was wrong. Why did it feel so eerie?

When he swept his spiritual sense, he found that the surrounding land was filled with an extremely strong dark energy.

The deeper you go, the stronger the breath becomes, and it seems that you can hear the sounds of ghosts and monsters.

What's going on?

Digging into the underworld?
No matter what, Qin Feng immediately walked up without any intention of going down to find out what was going on.

If you are too curious, it may lead to your own death.

Whether the place below is the underworld or not, it has nothing to do with him at the moment.

Even though he is very curious about the way of reincarnation, he is currently too weak and has no qualifications to explore it.

In this way, Qin Feng dug a cave in a suitable place underground.

In the world of Journey to the West, the classification of the five elements is very clear. Deep underground, it actually has a great impact on the practice of many cultivators.

Even those monsters, when practicing, will actively look for places with rich spiritual energy. I have never seen anyone choose to practice underground.

Heaven and earth are divided into yin and yang, and the earth is naturally yin.

Unless there are some evil ways, to refine those evil techniques, evil objects or something like that.

Otherwise, practicing underground would simply ruin one's own cultivation.

However, Qin Feng is not afraid of these, because the skills he practices are special and his physique is also very special.

While practicing underground, he practiced the Five Elements Rotation Method and Thick Earth Skill, and his efficiency was extremely high.

There are many other skills that he also studied carefully, and his proficiency increased rapidly.

As for Qin Feng's clone, he did not practice.

He traveled around the human world, understanding this world while actually practicing.

He was practicing a special technique, which could also be called a secret technique, called Red Dust Technique.

This technique is quite special, and requires one to constantly enter the secular world in order to practice it.

Even if Qin Feng possessed the talent of God rewarding hard work, he could not achieve it quickly. His proficiency increased slowly when he practiced by sitting still. He could only increase his proficiency quickly by traveling in the human world.

The effect of this technique is very strong. It can not only enhance spiritual awareness, but also has a strong resistance to the invasion of inner demons.

However, this method is difficult to practice, and requires experiencing all kinds of human sufferings, seven emotions and six desires, and is extremely time-consuming.

And this is only a small success. If you want to achieve great success, you need to experience different kinds of life.

For example, being very rich, coming from a high-ranking official family, having a place on the imperial examination, being a beggar all one's life, etc.

Each of these lives needs to be experienced for at least five years, and it is estimated that it will take thousands of years to cultivate the Red Dust Skill to perfection.

And in the human world, how many thousand years can a cultivator survive?
Therefore, after this secret technique was created, few people practiced it.

Even if you are practicing, it would be good enough to achieve some success in a hundred years.

Now that Qin Feng comes to practice, because of his talent, of course he doesn't need to spend so much time and energy to experience the sufferings of the world.

He only needs to travel around the world and his proficiency will naturally grow.

In this way, Qin Feng's original body practiced while his clone began his free and unrestrained journey.

In the blink of an eye, five years have passed.

This period of time was just a blink of an eye for Qin Feng.

However, during these five years, wars broke out all over the Tang Dynasty, and the situation became increasingly chaotic.

When Qin Feng sees something unfair, he will naturally take action, and when there are some tragic situations, he will also help.

Because he was dressed in blue and did things without leaving his name.

Gradually, he also gained the reputation of Green-robed Monk in the martial arts world.

Today, Qin Feng passed by a village that had just experienced a major robbery by bandits. Fires were everywhere, many houses were damaged, and wailing was heard everywhere.

They were said to be bandits, but in fact they were rebels, and a roaming group of rebels at that.

The local bandits know how to rob sustainably and won't steal too much at a time.

Those smart bandits would not rob nearby villages. If they wanted to rob, they would only rob passing caravans.

Only these foreign bandits would be so reckless and rob everything without caring about the consequences.

"Grandpa! Grandpa, wake up!" A three or four-year-old child squatted beside a corpse, pushing the other person and shouting continuously.

Some people were digging through the rubble, trying to rescue people from under the rubble.

Others had dull eyes and woodenly dragged the unclaimed bodies to the square in the center of the village.

This kind of scene is nothing to Qin Feng.

Practitioners cultivate the Tao and also the mind.

Qin Feng's heart, after being baptized by the inner demon calamity, has become very firm, and this kind of scene will not move him too much.

However, when practicing the Red Dust Technique, he still felt a little emotional.

This world is truly filled with suffering.

He had seen scholars who had studied hard for more than ten years, spent all their savings to go to Chang'an for the imperial examinations, and then encountered bandits on the way and were beaten to death.

His elderly mother is blind, and now that her son is dead, she probably won’t live long.

He had seen a family of farmers who had toiled in the fields all their lives, but eventually became poorer and poorer because of high taxes.

Once a severe drought occurs, people can only sell their children.

There was another family whose mother died early and whose son went insane. The locals regarded them as possessed by evil spirits and bullied and beat them in various ways. Eventually, the father had no choice but to sell his property and leave with his son.

In a strange place, my son fell ill and looked like a demon. A "master" who passed by said he could cure the disease.

However, in the end, the father spent all his savings and his son was still crazy. It turned out that the so-called master was just a liar who specialized in defrauding people of their money.

There are many more of these things.

He had seen many wars like the one before him, including massacres of entire villages. "Ah," Qin Feng sighed, and entered the mountain village to help these people carry out the bodies.

Those who are still alive are being treated on the spot.

Qin Feng is now dressed in green and carries a small medicine box on his waist. Most of the items in the box are medicinal herbs, as well as a set of silver needles, a small knife and other things.

That’s right, his current identity is a traveling doctor.

This identity allowed him to travel freely in the world, and even if he encountered bandits, they would not do anything to him.

After all, the profession of doctor is very popular no matter where you are.

"Sir, we will never forget your kindness to our Lijia Village!" When Qin Feng was treating the villagers, many people kowtowed to him to express their gratitude.

In fact, he didn't think about being thanked or anything like that. During all these years of traveling, Qin Feng had been doing whatever he wanted.

But it is with this mentality that his skill proficiency can grow rapidly. If he actively practices Red Dust Skill, his speed will be even slower than it is now.

[Red Dust Skill Proficiency +1]

[Red Dust Skill Proficiency +1]

For example, now, Qin Feng has buried all the bodies in Lijia Village and cured the living people, and his proficiency has increased by two points.

Qin Feng did not respond too much to those people's thanks. After finishing his work, he stood up and walked out.

Finally, he asked, "Which direction did those bandits go?"

"southwest."

Qin Feng didn't say much and quickly walked towards the southwest.

Half a day later, Qin Feng followed the trail and saw a group of bandits in a valley.

There were not many people, only about ten or so, all riding horses. There were more horses than people. Qin Feng saw that these people were full of murderous aura and had obviously killed many people.

During these five years, Qin Feng has never used any magic. He has always dealt with everything as a mortal.

As for the fact that he can see evil spirits now, it is mainly related to his own magical powers of eyes.

Qin Feng grabbed a few leaves and put down the medicine box around his waist.

He walked straight towards the dozen people.

When he was about twenty or thirty meters away, he raised his hand and flicked it. A few fallen leaves turned into sharp green lights, instantly piercing the throats of several people.

I have to say that this group of bandits reacted quickly.

As the sky was getting darker, they were eating meat and chatting, talking about what happened in Lijia Village before.

But the moment several people fell down, they reacted.

"There is an enemy attack!"

They grabbed the weapons around them and looked for the enemy with alert faces.

However, all this was in vain. After Qin Feng threw all the fallen leaves in his hand, he sucked up the gravel on the ground with his true energy and continued to throw it forward, killing most of the people soon.

Teammates fell one by one, and this scene made the remaining few people very panic.

However, they did not panic for long, as Qin Feng quickly sent them to see the King of Hell.

He doesn't even need to get close to her, Qin Feng's skill in picking Ye Feihua is still extremely strong.

These bandits were wearing leather armor and holding short crossbows. Their weapons were all standard.

Especially the horses, which had official seals on their buttocks.

Originally, Qin Feng thought that they were a group of rebels, but he didn't expect that they were actually a group of deserters.

They are not even deserters, but they come out just to have a good meal.

Qin Feng found the sergeant's token of the nearby county garrison camp on the leader.

To be honest, Qin Feng has never seen troubled times.

In the world of Joy of Life, the situation was relatively stable and there was no chaos at all.

There was no war in the subsequent Douluo World and the world of Mortal's Journey to Immortality.

In fact, there are also wars in Tiannan and Luanxinghai.

Whether it is cultivators or humans, there will be unrest, but he just hasn't seen it with his own eyes.

Now in the world of Journey to the West, he just happened to catch up with the end of the Tang Dynasty. There were wars everywhere, and there was no sign of prosperity and glory.

Just as Qin Feng was packing up the horse and belongings and preparing to send them to Lijia Village, he heard footsteps approaching.

It was already dark. In the valley, only the area around Qin Feng was lit with fire. The surroundings had been cleared. It was obvious that the group of bandits were preparing to spend the night here.

It's normal for someone to follow the fire.

The visitor was a young man, and he was alone.

This is deep in the woods, a young man? Alone?
And Qin Feng looked at the other person's attire. He was carrying a long sword and had a Taoist bun on his head. He looked a bit like a Taoist priest.

When he followed Zhou Bai in search of immortals, he had seen many Taoists.

After I deliberately avoided it, I rarely saw it. I didn't expect to see it again in this deep mountain forest.

Qin Feng stood beside the fire, and the flames illuminated him completely.

When the Taoist priest turned the corner, he immediately saw Qin Feng's appearance.

"Sir, I am Shansongzi, and I am honored to meet you." After seeing Qin Feng and the corpses all over the ground, Shansongzi remained calm and bowed slightly to Qin Feng.

"Thank you for your courtesy, Taoist priest." Qin Feng nodded slightly.

He asked, "Master, what is the purpose of your visit?"

This Shan Songzi didn't look very old, and his expression didn't change much after seeing the corpses all over the ground. There was even a hint of admiration in his eyes when he looked at him.

Especially the direction the other party was coming from, just like him, following these bandits.

Obviously, the other party was not just passing by, but had a purpose.

"I came from Lijia Village to enforce justice, but I didn't expect that you would be one step ahead of me."

Shan Songzi went on to say, “I heard from the villagers of Lijia Village that there was a doctor who rescued them and headed straight to the southwest. I guess that must be the lay Buddhist.”

When he came here just now, he saw the medicine box on the road and guessed Qin Feng's identity.

Qin Feng nodded slightly, then looked at the long sword behind Shan Songzi and asked, "Master, are you here to enforce justice?"

The Taoists he met five years ago basically had no strength. It was obvious that they had not received the true teachings and only knew some martial arts at most.

But the Shan Songzi in front of him was different. He walked with the gait of a dragon and a tiger, and his expression was also completely different. He seemed to have a sense of righteousness.

In Qin Feng's opinion, the Shan Songzi in front of him should be a Taoist priest with a legacy.

"Yes."

Shan Songzi nodded and said, "I have made great progress in my cultivation, so I came out of the mountains to gain some experience."

There is a saying that goes, Taoist priests come down the mountain to save the world in troubled times.

Shan Songzi is still a little short of his cultivation, but the Tang Dynasty has now entered a period of chaos.

That is why the sect sent many Taoists out to the troubled times to slay demons and save the people.

It's not just Shan Songzi. Many Taoists similar to him have begun to travel around the world.
