Chapter 477 Setting up a trap
Murong Ji found a place, sat cross-legged and began to practice. The two methods of making alchemy had some similarities, but they were still two different methods of making alchemy.

He still needs to smelt it and make it completely his own.

The speed is very fast and it is very smooth. It is not difficult to adjust the operation of the exercises to achieve the level of taking both internal and external factors into consideration.

The difficult parts have been solved by Zhang Boduan.

When he opened his eyes, Murong Ji saw Qu Tong looking at an oil painting. That was... Feng Baobao when she was a child!
"Hubby, you're awake." Qu Tong handed over the oil painting. "Feng Baobao...haha, she is Wu Gensheng's daughter!"

Murong Ji nodded, his reaction was very calm.

Qu Tong didn't care. When she entered the valley, she found that Murong Ji knew a lot about this place, as if... he had been here before.

If he had been here, then his abilities would be explained. [But, I didn't find it in Nancy's memory...]

Qu Tong thought for a while, and there were still many things that could not be explained. After coming to his senses, Qu Tong put the painting back to its original position and adjusted it.

"You came here just for this thing, didn't you? Why..."

Qu Tong smiled and said softly, "Zhang Chulan is too cautious. Now it's different from the past. With the company's pressure, no force dares to start a large-scale battle."

"I'm going to stimulate him so that he can find more clues."

Murong Ji frowned slightly, and instantly understood Qu Tong's intention, "You are looking for Wu Gensheng!"

Qu Tong did not stop him this time and asked directly: "Husband, aren't you curious about how the Eight Wonders were realized? According to you, they were inherited from the ancestors in a certain way."

"For example, the origin of Qi body is the method of cultivating both sex and life. It was inherited from a certain sect of Quanzhen Sect, most likely the Longmen Sect, because they cultivate Yuanshen and Yangshen, right or not?"

"The Tongtian Lu comes from the Shangqing Sect of Mount Mao! The Shenji Bailian comes from the Jiangmen, also known as the Missing One Sect! The Liuku Xianzei comes from the Lingyin Temple! As for the Shuangquanshou, there were many famous doctors in ancient times, but the one who understood surgery was Hua Tuo!"

"I don't know about Daluo Cave, but it is true that the story of Juling Lingqian Jiang came from Zhong Kui, who was good at catching ghosts and monsters! Fenghou Qimen, it must be from Fenghou herself or King Wen. Am I right, husband?"

Murong was very sure, but he did not deny it and remained silent.

Qu Tong slowly stopped smiling, and then said: "Although these sects' inheritances don't have any eight unique skills, they have similar methods passed down from their ancestors, right?"

"These methods are too outrageous. They, along with the method of communicating with the ancestors, have been sealed in the ban."

"Hubby, you are also a person who has learned that secret technique, right? It was inherited from Zhang Boduan!"

Murong Ji also did not deny or admit it. Looking at Qu Tong's smiling face, he said in a deep voice, "What's the matter with the god spirit without roots?"

"God knows..."

Qu Tong lowered her head and thought, but couldn't figure it out for a moment.

Murong Ji said nothing more and turned to look outside the cave. He wanted to see if the Ren Meridian existed here, and whether the place where the sages had retreated in the past existed.

Seeing Murong Ji leaving, Qu Tong hurriedly followed him. Not long after, the two of them returned to the narrow valley again.

After a short pause, Murong Ji continued to move forward.

Not long after, they went around to the depths of the valley, climbed the mountain, and looked down. The layout of the entire valley and the operation of the formation, Murong Ji discovered that there was indeed a dark valley corresponding to this place.

It took the two of them a lot of time to cross the forest and climb over several hills.

This is not a valley, but an ancient tomb.

Murong Ji was somewhat confused, and he always felt that he had built the situation himself. Back then, in the Tianlong World, he had built Tongtian Valley with his own hands.

The tomb is very old and large in scale. Walking on the straight road, I felt a chill down my spine. There were almost no animals here, and it felt dead.

Murong Ji stretched lazily and looked back at Qu Tong who was hiding behind him.

With a light chuckle, he continued walking forward, all the way into the tomb passage and through a pitch-black corridor.

Suddenly it became clear and bright. The deep part of the ancient tomb had collapsed completely, and it was impossible to tell whose tomb it belonged to.

However, some people later cleaned up the ruins on the ground.

Murong Ji walked closer, but he saw graves everywhere, of different heights. In the middle of a grave, sat a dead body, which had not yet completely weathered and collapsed.

He was wearing a tattered Confucian robe, which meant that he had failed in his retreat.

"I wonder which sage it is." When Qu Tong heard Murong Ji's words, she looked outside curiously and was a little surprised.

When he got closer, Murong Ji looked down and took off the Confucian robe, revealing an empty shell! It was almost transparent, a bit like glass.

There are some light touches of color elsewhere.

Murong Ji's heart skipped a beat. What was this?
"Honey, this is...what is this!"

"Shell!" Murong Ji's pupils shrank slightly. This thing was rare, no, it was almost invisible.

In the hundreds of years of history, nothing like this has ever been seen! "When immortals ascend to heaven, they will transform all their acquired Qi into innate Qi, which is often called the reversal of innateness." "In this process, the acquired Qi and innate Qi will be entangled and mixed with each other. In order to completely cut off the acquired attributes, they can only be discarded together with part of the innate Qi."

"A large amount of natural force will surge and condense. The ascender has already completed his merits and virtues, and has formed his own Qi system. The natural force from the outside world cannot enter, and can only surge on his body surface. After the fusion of acquired Qi and innate Qi, this thing is formed."

Qu Tong stared in amazement at the semi-colored, transparent shell in front of her that looked like glass; his face was still clearly visible.

Above the Baihui acupoint on the top of the head, there is a round hole the size of a glass ball. "What is this?"

"The path to ascension..."

Qu Tong's expression gradually became serious, and he lowered his head in thought, "Who has been able to ascend in the past hundred years?"

Murong Ji glanced at the Confucian robe he had torn off, and had a rough idea in his mind, and he exhaled slowly. "The root of all changes is always in the heart."

A green light flashed in Murong Ji's hand, and he directly collected the remains. These were all pure natural energy and innate qi. If ordinary people ate them, they could really prolong their lifespan.

Without saying anything more, he turned his head and looked around. Suddenly, he saw three words on the ground not far in front of him: What is Immortality?

It was Zhang Boduan's handwriting, but there were no other words around it.

Murong Ji sighed lightly, raised his sword finger, and carved three words under the words "What is an Immortal?", "Become a Human Being."

Time passed little by little and the sky darkened. Murong Ji originally planned to stay here for one night, but Qu Tong refused to agree.

Murong Ji wanted to say something to her, but Qu Tong suddenly said, "Are we going to... broadcast live to the Grandmaster tonight?!"

Murong Ji: "..."

After spending several hours, Murong Ji and his companion returned to Tongtian Valley. Standing above the valley, Murong Ji lowered his head and looked down, but he was constantly thinking in his heart.

"Qu Tong."

"Huh? What's wrong?"

"Quan Xing Jin Feng, has she not been sent back yet?"

Qu Tong was a little surprised. Why was Murong Ji so interested in Jin Feng all of a sudden? Before she could say anything, she heard Murong Ji continue to say, "Call back and ask them to send Jin Feng back."

"Bring Zhang Chulan and Feng Baobao over here..."

Suddenly, Murong Ji stopped talking again. After a long silence, he said, "Hire a group of people from abroad, both ordinary people and extraordinary people, and bring them here in the name of exploration."

"Arrange the time. I want the two groups to meet."

Qu Tong's face turned pale, and she felt as if she had been seen through. "Husband, you know everything?"

Murong Ji was stunned. What was going on? Then he reacted, "Have you arranged it?"

Qu Tong took a deep breath and said, "Not yet, not yet. We haven't recruited enough people from abroad yet..."

Murong Ji nodded. He did not ask Qu Tong's purpose. No matter what her purpose was, it did not conflict with his purpose.

"Also, arrange a puppet to blend in. I want to see who Feng Baobao is!"

Qu Tong's face froze again, and she looked at Murong Ji with a strange look, but she didn't say anything and nodded in agreement.

When night fell, Murong Ji set up the tent and slept in the cave.

Not long after, bursts of drainage sounds came from inside... mixed with Qu Tong's unspeakable groans.

Not long after, a white jade bead flew to the entrance of the cave, and stood quietly in the void, as if it was a little surprised, and seemed to be too embarrassed to speak.

After being stunned for a long time, he seemed to come to his senses and hurriedly walked outside.

When the storm stopped, Qu Tong lay on Murong Ji's chest, gentle as water. Suddenly, she asked, "Husband, what do you think of Wu Gensheng?"

Murong Ji smiled and said, "Why, you want to trick me?"

Qu Tong did not answer, but kept drawing circles on Murong Ji's heart with her fingers, as if urging Murong Ji to speak faster.

Murong Ji's eyes darkened, and he said in a deep voice: "The Wu Gensheng in Jin Feng's memory has already given the answer. Let me first talk about Wu Gensheng's origin."

"Who do you think Wu Gensheng is most like among the people you know? I'm not talking about appearance, but personality!"

Qu Tong frowned slightly in thought. For a moment, she really couldn't tell.

Murong Ji was not in a hurry and waited quietly.

"Baby Feng?"

Murong Ji shook his head. "Feng Baobao's is the instinct of living things. Even if you wash away a person's mind, you can still achieve her level of intelligence. Wu Gensheng, however, is not simply intelligent. On the contrary, his cognition and intelligence are not low."
