Chapter IX: Transmission of Gong(1/2)
Xu Xian was ecstatic. Just by knowing how to make jade slips, the dead old man was a master, not to mention that he was 260 years old.
Life is rare in seventy years, and there are no people in the whole world who can live to a hundred years old. This is the life span of a person. How difficult is it to live to a hundred years old? Could this person be a Huang-level, Xuan-level... or a earth-level powerful man?
His heartbeats get even harder.
The golden characters came one after another, and the jade slip started, and it was about to introduce them.
Ling Xuzi killed him because he had a conflict with the elder's son in the master's sect. He was afraid of the elder's revenge and escaped from the master's sect. What kind of master's sect is not said. Since he came to Shandong, he met Qiyuan and obtained the Qingdi Immortal Palace. He happened to have the wood spirit roots, which matched the characteristics of the Qingdi Immortal Palace. He opened the first and second floors of the Qingdi Immortal Palace and learned more profound Taoism.
Xu Xian was stunned again.
He knows what talent is, and he is good at it himself in terms of talent, and he also knows some ore plants and animals with special attributes, but he has never heard of any wood spirit roots. Therefore, the name suggests that if there is wood spirit roots, it is related to the golden spirit roots, water spirit roots, fire spirit roots, and earth spirit roots. Then Xu Xian thought of a terrible truth.
If the distinction is like this, the problem is serious. The spiritual roots are divided into five attributes, and then the Taoist arts must be divided into five attributes. The problem is that a person with earth spiritual roots, even if he is talented, if he learns Taoist arts with other attributes, it will not only delay his time, but may not be as good as a person with mediocre qualifications.
It's not as simple as he thought, but it's not easy to think of this.
The golden characters continued to instill in his mind.
Ling Xuzi got the Qing Emperor Immortal Palace in Juyeze. After learning some advanced Taoist techniques, he dug a cave on a nearby hill.
Now this is a sandbank, not a hill, but Xu Xian is easy to understand. In ancient times, this was Juyeze, which was as famous as Yunmeng Lake. Due to the changes of time, the surface of Juyeze Lake became smaller and smaller. Some lakes became mulberry fields, and some mulberry fields turned back into lakes. As for why no one has discovered this so far, only God knows.
Continue to introduce the golden characters.
Ling Xuzi not only obtained some advanced Taoist techniques in the Immortal Palace, but also obtained a seed. It carried the aura of a fairy spirit. Ling Xuzi recognized it for a long time and judged that it was an ancient immortal. Ancient books record that once its fruit ripens, it could become an earth immortal after eating it.
Ling Xuzi then dug a spirit pool in the cave, found spiritual soil, ground the spirit stones into powder, and planted the seeds of Gancao. Needless to say, Ling Xuzi died did not mean that the fruit came out, but instead made a livestock cheaper.
Xu Xian was puzzled, what is the spirit stone and what is the spirit soil? Why have I never heard of it?
Ling Xuzi also got a green giant dome from the Immortal Palace. He didn't know what it was. However, he could smell a strong spiritual power from the egg, so he took the giant dome out of the Immortal Palace, but no matter what method he used, he could not break the giant dome.
When Xu Xian saw this, he guessed that the egg was probably the green dragon. He glanced at the giant dragon again, and almost became a thing of Ling Xuzi's mouth.
The golden characters are still being introduced. Here, Ling Xuzi wasted more than a hundred years of time. In the early stage of the golden elixir, he knew that his birthday was approaching, so he carved what he learned into this jade slip, hoping that those who are destined to continue their studies with the Qing Emperor Immortal Palace.
Xu Xian's heart beat again.
The Taoist art he learned was messy, but he heard a lot of theories. The first level of cultivation is Qi refining, and the second level is Gathering Yuan. If we distinguish it from the perspective of martial arts, Qi refining is acquired, and when we reach Juyuan, we begin to enter the innate realm. But the real innate realm is the third level, foundation building, first gathering spirits, and then agility. In the later stage, we can completely fast, not eat the fireworks of the world, and become a real immortal. Of course, if we are greedy, even if we are powerful golden elixirs, we can still eat, just like these arrangements in the cave, proving that this senior Ling Xuzi did not really reject the fireworks of the world.
The immortal elders he invited at his family did not dare to claim that they were in the late stage of foundation building. Wouldn't they take their lives if they didn't eat?
Therefore, they pretend to be the powerful power of gathering spirits. If they are a "humble" person, they will also be the powerful power of gathering spirits.
But there is one thing they have repeatedly said, that is, it will collapse into a golden elixir and enter the fairy world. When he heard that Ling Xuzi had reached the early stage of the golden elixir, Xu Xian's heart beat hard. It can be said that this is the highest master he has ever encountered in his life, higher than Kunlun Mountain. At least he knew one thing. If he reached the golden elixir realm, he would be a legendary yellow-level master. There was a small cloud in front of the golden elixir master.
It's not as simple as he thought, and what he heard is even more messy.
So Xu Xian was very puzzled now. Why did Ling Xuzi reach the realm of the Golden Elixir and not fly to the fairy world, but die here? Was it difficult to break the void in ancient times? He thought of another thing: since ancient times, he divided the powerful power into the mysterious yellow heaven and earth, the vast universe, the sun and the moon are full of sun and moon, and Chen Xu listed sixteen levels. But when he reached the mysterious level, the heaven and earth were not tolerated and absorbed by the fairy world. Then why divide it into two levels: heaven and earth? Could it be that there were really powerful powers like heaven and earth in ancient times?
The jade slip would not explain it to him, and continued to instill golden characters. This time, Ling Xuzi learned in his life. There are Taoist techniques in the Immortal Palace, but their Taoist techniques were written in ancient characters and had profound meanings. Therefore, Ling Xuzi made annotations later and wrote about his experiences when practicing the exercises.
After a long time, after indoctrination, the jade slip turned into dry white, and then turned into jade powder, collapsed in Xu Xian's palm. But all the knowledge in the jade slip was deeply remembered in Xu Xian's mind.
Xu Xian looked at the Qing Jiao who was still sleeping, and then looked at the sweet grass.
It may still bear fruit in the future, but God knows that it will be hundreds of years later. Xu Xian doesn't know what spirit stones and spiritual soil are, and he doesn't know how to cultivate them. Therefore, he had the idea of those nine leaves.
According to the jade slip, human food can turn into earth immortals. I don’t know if the green dragon will turn into immortals, but it must be a rare spiritual medicine.
The essence allows Qingjiao to eat it, but the leaves, stems and roots of these rare spiritual herbs will have medicinal effects.
Pick a leaf and chew it.
I felt a warm current flowing from my appetite to my whole body, and Xu Xian began to sit cross-legged and cultivate his energy according to the luck method in the jade slip.
At first, he frightened the wood spiritual root. Who knew what kind of spiritual root he was, or even whether he had this spiritual root. Therefore, he was careful when he started to refine Qi, but soon his body and mind were calm.
He opened his eyes wide after a while.
"I finally broke through the third level of Qi Refining. Ling Xuzi said that he started at the age of eight, only reached the fourth level of Qi Refining at the age of thirteen, and suddenly reached the tenth level of Qi Refining at the age of twenty, turning Qi into Yuan, and entering the second level of Qi Refining. He is already a rare genius in the sect. He also said that practicing Taoism is quite similar to practicing martial arts, but practicing Taoism is more powerful, so the progress is slower than practicing martial arts. I am progressing so fast, is it the skill of Gan Baiye?"
Xu Xian couldn't help but look at the Qing Jiao. The Qing Jiao changed a lot, and a layer of misty cocoon spots appeared on its body. I don't know what changes would happen below, but I know that it would only benefit but not harm the Qing Jiao. Xu Xian felt that his whole body smelled, and there seemed to be a layer of sticky mucus on his body.
So he ran into the water to rinse.
His idea was wrong. Garlic leaves played a role, which somewhat broadened his meridians and further tempered his physique, eliminating some impurities, which would help him in the future practice of Taoism. However, in the blink of an eye, he entered the third level of Qi refining, which had little to do with Garlic leaves.
This is the foundation he laid before.
The Taoist priests taught many methods, some useful and some useless, and they couldn't tell the difference, so they practiced a lot in a mess.
This is like building a house, and some bricks, tiles and wood were moved. Because of the chaos, the house was never built, and at most it helped him control the magic circle.
When real houses are built, it is troublesome. If you practice again, you must push the house down and start over, otherwise it will bring some bad consequences.
Now the house has not moved, but the foundation has been found. In addition, what Ling Xuzi passed down was the most brilliant Taoist technique in the world, rather than the Taoist technique that Ling Xuzi practiced when he was a young man, and his... talent, so the speed is unimaginable.
Xu Xian observed the changes in his body and was very excited. He punched him hard in the water.
"Now I have reached the third level of Qi Refining, and I have some self-protection skills. At least among the heroes of Liangshan, I can also be at the last place. But I want peace, it is not enough..." Xu Xian thought of the power of the girl's sword again.
Thinking of this, he dived into the lake. Fortunately, he was different from his previous skills. He spent some time killing a few fish with a dagger, roasting them to satisfy his hunger, swallowing a piece of sweet-flavored leaf, and continuing to practice.
There is no sun and moon in the cave. When you are thirsty, you can hold a sip of lake water and drink it. When you are hungry, you can go into the water to catch a few fish to roast it to satisfy your hunger. I don’t know how long it took, but Xu Xian swallowed the fifth leaf and sat cross-legged. After finally "expanding" and cultivating to the fourth level of Qi refining.
The fourth and third levels of Qi refining are a world of difference. From the fourth level, he has officially entered the middle stage of Qi refining, and he also clearly feels that the qi in his body is no longer as messy as before.
Looking at the sky outside the crack, Xu Xian whispered: "I am here, I don't know how many days I have practiced. I want to go out and take a look..."
Chapter 10 First Kill
Xu Xian sneaked out of the cave and climbed to Qingjiao Island along the reed grass on the edge of the sandbank. The plants and trees on the sandbank had already appeared some withered yellow colors. The sky had not really cooled down, but there was a sense of autumn.
"I didn't expect that it was almost September."
But Xu Xian felt very satisfied with himself. It was this escape that gave him a rare adventure.
Although this world is still the world of the Song Dynasty, because the tyrant rulers are in power, thieves arise everywhere, and Xu Xian keenly notices that chaos in the world is happening.
He just doesn’t have his terrible life experience, and once troubled times come, he must have a certain amount of life-saving capital.
He even had a little desire to not cultivate to the level of the Golden Elixir. As long as he cultivated to the late stage of foundation building, even if the world was big, he could go and even take revenge...
He climbed up a big tree and looked into the distance.
Although he had some self-protection capital, he did not dare to directly deal with the heroes of Liangshan. He didn't think about revenge for the time being. All he thought about was to escape from Liangshanpo safely and then go to Hangzhou.
And there is a hope that he entered the nest with Qingjiao and has not appeared after so long. The heroes of Liangshan would think that he was killed by Qingjiao.
But it disappointed him.
The breeze is clear and the lake is bright and charming. There are many fishing boats in the distance of the sandbank, and there are fishermen fishing on the boats. But now he has better eyesight and can see clearly. Some fishermen on the boats are absent-minded and always glance at this corner.
"This old thief Song, after so long, I won't let me go!"
Xu Xian said hatefully.
From his perspective, Song Jiang's approach was too much, but when standing on the other side of Liangshan, Song Jiang's approach was not too much. He dispatched so many heroes to catch a boy, but actually let the boy escape and seriously injured Li Kui. Moreover, Song Jiang heard Xu Xian shout in front of Li Kui and Lin Chong: "Those who insult others will always humiliate him; those who kill others will always kill him!"
If it is a general teenager, Xu Xian is not. Although he has low combat power, he is proficient in formations. His ability is used in Liangshan, and it is not used in Liangshan either. However, Gongsun Sheng learned some of it and used it for defense.
But if this young man's talent is discovered by the court and his achievements in formation will become deeper in the future and he will be put into the army, he will leap over the dragon gate and turn into a cloud dragon. If he takes revenge at that time, it will no longer be a dream.
Therefore, he entered the Jiao Cave, and Song Jiang continued to order and send someone to monitor him.
In fact, there was already a commotion on a boat. Xu Xian had good eyesight and was not a good person in Liangshan. Someone on this boat discovered that Xu Xian came out of the lake and went to Qingjiaozhou.
Faced with this camp, Xu Xian cut off the idea of escaping, came down from the tree again, and sneaked into the lake.
Suddenly he felt uneasy, turned his head and saw a man holding a short knife and stabbing straight towards him. There was another person next to the reed not far away, and he swam towards him quickly.
There are so many people in Liangshan, but because the Qing Jiao has not appeared for a long time, some people are brave, and two of them have taken the risk of sneaking over. Because they are next to Jiaozhou, they don’t want to catch Xu Xian and go back, so they kill Xu Xian directly.
When he saw Xu Xian discover him, this water ghost was not afraid. Xu Xian was terrible because he was terrified. How did he set up a formation in this lake on his formation? He shouted: "Kill!"
A short knife cut open a stream of water and stabbed it.
But he despised Xu Xian. Xu Xian used to know the formation, but he was shallow. Even if he set up the formation, he needed a suitable terrain, and he had to prepare relevant materials and test his spiritual power. Xu Xian was a little powerful in the formation, and if possible, he could kill Li Kui.
But the requirements are too strict, and Xu Xian actually has little threat. If he does not set up a formation, he will only be a fourteen-year-old boy. People in the world divide the great power into the mysterious yellow heaven and earth, the vast universe, the sun and the moon are full of sun and moon, and the Chen Su is ranked sixteen levels. However, to distinguish Xu Xian's combat power, he must go to a weaker level, or even to the cold road, autumn harvest and winter storage, and storage level. Of course, it will not be divided like this. Even the lowest level of Zhang cannot enter, so why do you need to divide it?
But after April, Xu Xian may not reach the Chen level, and his combat power will at least reach the ranking level, and he will definitely be above the Zhang level. Otherwise, Xu Xian would not say that he could sit at the end of the Liangshan seat. This seat does not refer to ordinary soldiers, but to the seats of the leaders.
The water ghost rushed over very quickly, but the sword was walking in the water, with some resistance. Xu Xian calmly looked at the trajectory of the sword stabbing, and remained motionless. He thought in his heart that if you want to kill me, I can kill you too.
When the short knife was about to pierce into his chest, he stretched out his hand and clamped the back of the knife. With the help of the water force, his body reversed and twisted it to the water ghost. He used the other hand to pull out the short dagger, pierced it into his throat, and quickly let it go.
The water ghost covered his throat and looked at Xu Xian in surprise. Why did this kid move so fast that he couldn't even react? He wanted to shout but couldn't. In the blink of an eye, he turned into a corpse and floated towards the water surface.
This is Xu Xian’s first time killing someone, but he is not happy or worried. He said in his heart: “Repay virtue with virtue and repay grievance with righteousness. If you want to kill me, I will kill you. It’s natural!”
Another water ghost saw the huge change and shouted: "The dragon goes out to sea."
Regardless of whether the terrifying green dragon was alarmed, he jumped up and raised his fist and smashed it down.
Xu Xian let out lightly, and his fist smashed the air and slapped the waves.
"Splitting Mount Hua in anger!"
The big man held a big knife in another hand and slashed towards Xu Xian who was flashing.
"The name is powerful, but the moves are famous but not real!" Xu Xian said coldly.
To be continued...
