Chapter 124 The Giant Panda Comes to Collect Rent
After burning a stick of incense, Qi Minze brought a soul lamp to Zhang Xuanlin’s retreat.
The stone door slowly opened.
Qi Minze passed through a layer of barrier and entered it.
This place is a vast cave. The top of the cave is a hundred feet above the ground, and countless spiritual stones are inlaid on it to form a picture of stars.
Lingshan emits a faint white light, illuminating the cave.
There is a Yin-Yang Tai Chi diagram on the ground, with the Five Elements and Bagua array on the outside. A middle-aged man wearing a golden crown sits cross-legged on a high platform in the middle.
“Greetings to the Master.”
“Senior Brother, you are so polite. Is this lamp the object where Ji Qingyun’s split soul is entrusted?”
“Exactly, Master. The door is to use the method of heaven and man to enter the realm of nothingness and use the soul summoning technique to summon Ji Qingyun’s soul to ask? "
Zhang Xuanlin, the head of the Lingxu Sect, nodded and said: "Yes, I have achieved some success in my practice of seclusion today. It's time to deal with the affairs of the sect."
He raised his hand to summon the soul lamp and pointed it on it. , the beating soul lamp flame suddenly stood still, as if solidified.
Not only that, everything within three feet of Zhang Xuanlin seemed to be forbidden.
Qi Minze waited quietly. After a while, he saw Zhang Xuanlin open his eyes and quickly asked: "Master, how are you?"
"It's strange, his soul lantern has not yet been released." "Mie, why can't I find his aura, even in the floating world, this shouldn't be the case."
"Did he fall into a mysterious place? The floating world is an ancient formation, and there are some areas that we and other monks may not be able to touch. Could it be that he went to find the reason for the changes in this world, so he fell into danger."
Zhang Xuanlin nodded and said: "It is not impossible. , it seems that I still need to distract myself and take a trip.”
“Master, I don’t think it is appropriate. Even if you distract yourself, it will be too dangerous. Once the floating world shows strength that exceeds the Shentai realm. , it is very likely to fall into the devil world. Although it is just a distraction, it can If you lose it, your soul will be severely damaged, and even you will need several years to recover."
Zhang Xuanlin smiled and said: "It doesn't matter, let alone the disciples in the sect who are in danger, just in this floating world. In the end, it is in the hands of our Lingxu Sect, and hundreds of millions of living beings all rely on it. In our sect, you must not do nothing, otherwise you will feel guilty and it will be detrimental to your practice."
After hearing this, Qi Minze did not persuade him to practice and cultivate his mind. Practitioners must follow their original intention in everything they do. , since Zhang Xuanlin had this thought, it was useless to persuade him.
...
Gu Yuanqing asked some more questions about the cultivation world, the floating world and the Lingxu Sect.
Ji Qingyun may have felt like he had fallen into a demonic realm, and he said a lot.
But Gu Yuanqing could still tell that he was hiding a lot, and some of his words contained three truths and two falsehoods.
He did not point it out, but said lightly: "Your Excellency is loyal to the Lingxu Sect, but it is somewhat useful. I will not break my promise and allow you to spend a day in the mountains. I will see you off at this time tomorrow. Enter the pool.”
Ji Qingyun's expression changed slightly. He guessed that Gu Yuanqing must have heard the problem in his previous words, but he didn't say much. He had to lower his head under the eaves. A day can be active.
Gu Yuanqing also pointed out a courtyard for him to stay, but still suppressed him with all his strength.
Furthermore, he has to figure out his own way of food, clothing, housing and transportation. Gu Yuanqing has no intention of letting Aunt Feng give one more person to her.
Gu Yuanqing did not restrict his actions. Even if Ji Qingyun really wanted to escape from Beiquan Mountain and enter the Demonic Realm, let him do it. As for whether he would live or die if the demonic energy corroded him after escaping, he would have to leave it to fate.
Although Ji Qingyun was suppressed in cultivation, after all, his physical body was tempered by Dao fire and was not comparable to ordinary people at all. It was only that his soul and true energy were suppressed, unable to practice, and his body was exhausted and weak, which made him appear so sluggish. .
He walked calmly in the mountains and looked around. He saw the spiritual springs on the mountains, the trees in the mountains, the beasts in the mountains, and carefully looked at the Tiandi Pool. He even came to the foot of the mountain and stood at the entrance archway of Beiquan Mountain. , stood for a long time, but finally let out a long sigh and did not dare to take the last half step.
This whole day, he did not rest, as if he wanted to see everything in Beiquan Mountain.
Gu Yuanqing allowed him to do whatever he wanted. It would be strange if he could see the real secret of Beiquan Mountain just like that!
The real secret of Beiquan Mountain has never been in the mountains, but in Gu Yuanqing's sea of knowledge.
To the naked eye, the Demonic Realm during the day is no different from the Floating Realm except that the trees are taller and the beasts are stronger and more violent.
Gu Yuanqing thought that there would be a lot of troubles when he fell into the Demon Realm, but there was not one for the whole day.
Occasionally, beasts from the Demon Realm tried to break into Beiquan Mountain, but their efforts were all in vain. Even with their intelligence, they could not figure out what was going on. They only looked at them in confusion for a few times and then walked away.
There were also mountain beasts that flew out of the realm, but after being in the Lingshan Mountain all day, they felt unwell as soon as they went out, and they quickly flew back.
Gu Yuanqing studied the secret book he got from Lan Tinglie one day.
It was discovered that the magic methods in the demon realm are fundamentally different from those in the floating world and the cultivation world.
The exercises in the world of cultivation are the way of vitality, strengthening the body, cultivating the essence and nourishing the essence, so as to draw the secret treasure of true martial arts from the void world, and finally comprehend the way of heaven and earth, and cultivate the Tao embryo.
The demonic realm technique initially followed the path of qi and blood, using medicine and the blood of monster beasts to temper the body to produce more qi and blood, and then introduce the demonic qi into the body to temper the spiritual will. Thus externally sensing the heaven and earth, it becomes divine will. However, different paths lead to the same destination. After arriving at the Shentai realm, the techniques of the two realms become similar again.
“I originally wanted to see how people in this world refine demonic energy, but now it seems that it is of little use to me.”
On the night of the second day, the red moon came to the sky At the same location, Gu Yuanqing sent Ji Qingyun back to the Tiandi Pond, and only said calmly: "If you can tell me something that interests me when I see you next time, I will allow you to stay in this mountain again." One day of activities.”
Ten days passed peacefully like this, and Gu Yuanqing didn't seem to care much about whether he was in the Demon Realm, and his daily practice was still as if he was in the floating world.
There is just one more thing to do every day, which is to fish out one or two small fish from the Tiandi Pool and feed them to the carnivores in the mountains.
He only studied the treasure obtained from Lan Tinglie for a short time and then threw it aside. To him, these foreign objects were just trivial matters.
After Beiquan Mountain completely fell into the demonic realm, its growth rate accelerated again.
It seems that after this period of precipitation, it has accumulated enough foundation, the mountain begins to rise again, and the horizontal direction gradually becomes wider.
This kind of change is happening every moment. Even if Gu Yuanqing enters the state of observing the mountain and becomes one with Beiquan Mountain, he still can't feel where this growth comes from.
The spiritual energy in the mountain is still escaping into the floating world. At this time, it is in a very strange state of existence.
Obviously it is connected to the earth veins of the floating world, and even spiritual energy is emitted through the earth veins, but it seems to be in two different worlds from the floating world.
Obviously it is located in the Demonic Realm, but apart from absorbing the demonic energy from here, it has no other connection with this realm.
This kind of spatial illusion, the feeling that it is clearly within it, but yet beyond it, keeps emerging in my mind, as if there is something that is ready to come out, but I can't catch it.
And every time the sky fishing is touched and the hanging line passes through the clouds and mist, this feeling will become clearer for a moment or two.
Gu Yuanqing knows that this is a way of space, but his own practice is still shallow. Only by becoming familiar with it through the method of Tian Diao can he truly understand it!
More and more people are gathering outside Beiquan Mountain to practice. Who makes this spiritual energy within a hundred miles radius stronger than the core of their sect.
One day of practice here can be as good as several days or even dozens of days of practice in other places. Such benefits can be said to be a huge temptation for practitioners.
Not to mention ordinary people, even Ji Dai and Li Shi'an from the Dao Fire Realm have been staying at the top of the Hongyan Mountain Waterfall recently.
Li Shian originally wanted to visit, but after hearing that Gu Yuanqing closed the mountain to practice cultivation, he gave it up temporarily.
Ji Dai is half lying on the bluestone, and the wine gourd never leaves his hand. This gourd is a treasure he found many years ago. It looks like the size of an ordinary gourd, but it can hold two large jars of wine. It is really It suits him.
“After staying here for a few days, I feel that the bottlenecks that have trapped me for thirty years are beginning to loosen. Even if it is like this here, I don’t know what it is like inside? Brother Li, how many times have you been in there? Come on, let’s talk about it.”
Li Shian stood with his hands behind his back, looking at the quilt across from him from a distance. Covered by fog, the looming Beiquan Mountain slowly said: "It is indeed like a fairyland, unlike this world."
"Do you think, if this continues, will this world gradually become like the upper world?" It is not just a place of trial, as if it is at the mercy of others.”
Li Shi'an sighed quietly: "How is it possible? Even if Beiquan Mountain suddenly revives now, you and I both know the situation in this world. Its essence is nothing more than a small world."
"Cultivation here is a matter of practice. , how is your court going to solve it? Now that all the sects have gathered, there must be an explanation, otherwise everything will fall into chaos."
"Tiance Mansion is working with the various sects. Communicate with the casual cultivators and try to come up with a plan that everyone can accept, and no matter what, the matter will be finalized only if the person on Beiquan Mountain agrees."
"That's true. I don’t think I’ve seen him before?”
“They claim to be the largest sect in the world, and Guixu Island is the first-class place of cultivation in this world. How could they care about this place?”
Ji Dai, an old man in linen clothes, laughed and said, "I think it's true that they have no shame to come here."
...
When Gu Yuanqing was watching the mountains, he occasionally took a look at the outside world. The scenery and the developments outside are also clear.
He has no idea what the situation under the mountain will be. It has nothing to do with him. The secular world has its own rules.
Occasionally he still touches the scent of incense lingering in the mountains. Many people have heard about the miracles in Beiquan Mountain and come to the nearby area with their patients to pray for spiritual manifestations.
Gu Yuanqing used the power of incense to use the technique of fishing to send people to spiritual springs. He also saved many people, but there were also spiritual springs that were useless.
There was nothing he could do about it, but he was just doing his best.
As he continued to practice, Gu Yuanqing became more and more proficient in the art of sky fishing. As long as he was within the scope of the mountain view, he could break through the space more freely, and his understanding of the way of space gradually became blurred. thoughts.
There is a feeling in his heart that if he truly touches this way, Beiquan Mountain will be able to appear in the demon realm and the floating world at will.
"In the final analysis, Beiquan Mountain has always appeared in the Demon Realm. It is because I, the owner of Beiquan Mountain, am not strong enough to completely control this mountain."
Gu Yuanqing was thinking to himself when he suddenly heard the sound of gongs being beaten.
Looking around, he was stunned. He saw a black and white panda with a round figure and a cute look standing on a cloud, holding a big gong and beating it continuously. His spiritual thoughts spread in all directions: "This The rent is paid!”
