Chapter 174 The Seventh Realm of Sword Cultivation
That night, in a cave in Guanyufeng, Liang Yan sat cross-legged on a futon, silently recalling everything that happened during the day, vaguely like a dream Illusion, the feeling of being difficult to distinguish between truth and falsehood.
Just one day ago, I was still a casual cultivator. I didn’t expect that as soon as today passed, I would transform into a direct disciple of Guanyufeng, the number one sect in the Yue Kingdom. .
It has only been a day, and he has already begun to feel the benefits of being a direct disciple. Not to mention the large number of pills and spiritual stones he received when he started, even when he was doing things everywhere, there was obviously no one there. Dare to make things difficult for him, a newcomer.
This is completely different from the feeling I had when I was a handyman disciple in Yixing Pavilion. During the time in Yixing Pavilion, it was difficult to move forward. Even a small handyman disciple, Deacon Wang Yuan, dared to secretly deduct their resources, not to mention some other disciples, who did not treat their handyman disciples as fellow disciples.
Thinking of this, Liang Yan showed a sarcastic look on his face and said secretly: "Yixing Pavilion, the largest sect in the Zhao Kingdom, although on the surface adheres to the Confucian philosophy of 'education without distinction', it actually values the foundation of qualifications more than Taoism. Those with poor qualifications are used as handymen, not even able to carry out sect tasks. Fa Jie will never make a comeback. In contrast, although Yungang Sect is strict in recruiting disciples, at least they will not treat their disciples as handymen."
He sighed slightly. , he took out a piece of parchment from the storage bag, put it in front of his eyes and looked at it carefully.
“The materials for this sword-raising elixir can be redeemed from the sect’s Ziwei Tower, but it requires a lot of sect contribution points. It seems that after waiting for a few days, we will prepare to go to Baihu The pavilion has accepted the sect’s mission.”
Liang Yan’s current goal is very clear. While practicing in the sect, he must first complete the following three things:
First, accumulate contribution points. Exchange the tempering pill and cross the second threshold of the Qi refining stage as soon as possible.
Second, gather the materials and find someone to refine the sword-raising elixir.
Third, find someone to integrate the galaxy sand into the fixed light sword.
These three things are his top priorities now, and he cannot neglect any of them.
Liang Yan thought for a while and finally decided to follow Li Xiaosong to learn about the sect's affairs in the past two days. After meeting Yu Xuanji the night after tomorrow, he immediately went to Baihu Pavilion to take over the sect's mission.
In the next two days, Liang Yan followed Li Xiaosong and learned about the names and functions of various places in the sect.
Although Li Xiaosong is young, she is very interested in everything about the sect. It can even be said that she has some gossips. She is already familiar with the affairs of many famous disciples and even rumors.
“So although Zhang Song is ranked among the ‘Yungang Five’ and is one of the top five among the Yungang Sect’s Qi Refining disciples, he is actually a polite scum. This can be seen from his You can see a thing or two in the matter of 'playing with a beauty while drunk'."
Li Xiaosong shook his head and seemed to be getting more interested. He opened his mouth to say something more, but was interrupted by Liang Yan raising his hand.
"Okay, if you keep talking like this, it will probably get dark, so let's do something serious!"
"How come what I'm talking about is not serious business?" Li Xiaosong's head For a moment, he defended unconvincedly: "With your true strength, you can definitely be ranked among the 'Yungang Five'. I will reveal some information about your opponent in advance so that you can prepare early, right?"
"No need!" Liang Yan shook his head and said: "I don't have that leisurely mind. Now I just want to know, who are the disciples of Yungang Sect who are famous for their alchemy and weapon refining? Also, the cultivation level cannot exceed the foundation building, and the cultivation level cannot exceed the foundation building. I can’t help you.”
“Well, I only arrived a few days earlier than you. There are so many disciples of Yungang Sect, so how could I know? Who is good at refining weapons and who is good at refining elixirs?"
Liang Yan rolled his eyes and said, "I think you spend all your energy on the 'Yungang Five' of Bagua."
"That's all, let's stop here today. Starting tomorrow, I will go to Baihu Pavilion to take over the sect's mission and prepare to accumulate contribution points." Liang Yan thought for a while and said.
“You’ve only been here for two days and you’re going to take on a sect mission?” Li Xiaosong asked him, tilting his head.
"Time has not waited for me. Sword cultivation is extremely difficult. If I waste my time, I may not be able to achieve anything in my life." Ever since Liang Yan entered the art of swordsmanship, this sense of oppression has always been in his heart. It's like sailing against the current. If you don't advance, you will retreat. .
“Oh!”
Li Xiaosong nodded with some vague understanding. That night, at midnight, it was the dead of night.
On the top of Guanyu Peak, a young man in gray clothes slowly walked up.
The man looked left and right on the top of the peak for a while, then suddenly raised his legs and walked forward along a path until he reached the foot of a high platform.
This high platform stands abruptly on the top of the mountain. It is covered with blue stone platforms, and only a large Tai Chi Yin and Yang diagram is carved on the surface.
Liang Yan jumped up to the top of the high platform and saw an old man with a flat head sitting cross-legged on the ground casually, as if he had been waiting for a long time.
"Disciple Liang Yan, pay your respects to the master! I'm really ashamed to keep the master waiting for so long!"
The boy in gray is naturally Liang Yan, and the old man in front of him is Fish mystery.
"It's okay!" Yu Xuanji waved his hand and said, "You came on time. I've arrived early."
He looked at Liang Yan and asked with interest, "Can you tell me now? How did you cultivate the sword energy in your right hand?”
“Actually, it’s all a matter of chance. How did you get it? Even I am confused.”
After hearing this, Yu Xuanji smiled and said, “That’s all, if you don’t want to say it, I won’t force you. But do you know that even if you have mastered sword energy, you are still not a real person. "Sword cultivator."
"Do you know that it is said that you can only truly become a sword cultivator by condensing a sword embryo?" Liang Yan asked.
Yu Xuanji nodded and said: "Yes, in fact, the 'Sword Embryo Stage' is just the beginning. Including the 'Sword Embryo Stage', sword cultivation has a total of seven realms!"
"Seven realms!" Liang Yan Taking a breath of cold air, it would take him decades to condense a sword embryo just by relying on his own efforts, let alone the subsequent realms.
“But I don’t know what realms there are after the sword embryo?” After being shocked, Liang Yan became curious again and couldn’t help but ask.
"Haha, condensing the sword into an embryo, refining the sword into a gang, and turning the sword into a pill correspond to the first three stages of sword cultivation: the sword embryo stage, the sword gang stage, and the sword pill stage!"
< br>"Jian Fei, Jian Gang, Jian Wan?" Liang Yan was even more confused and immediately raised his hands and said, "Master, please explain in detail."
Yu Xuanji touched his chin and slowly said:
"The so-called sword embryo is the prototype of a magic weapon. Nine out of ten sword cultivation magical powers are based on a natal flying sword, so it is said that condensing the sword embryo, This is the beginning of sword cultivation. But once the sword embryo enters the body, it can no longer be summoned to kill the enemy, so the sword cultivation has just entered the sword embryo. During the period, the strength does not increase but decreases. However, because the sword embryo enters the body, the understanding of sword cultivation is naturally different. After finding another flying sword and completely refining it, the strength will naturally be higher than before. . It just takes a while to get used to it.”
“As for that. The sword gang stage is when the sword cultivator completely refines the sword embryo in the body and becomes the natal flying sword. When the sword cultivator reaches this state, not only the power of the flying sword is greatly increased, but also the sword energy can be transformed into the body and attached to the body. On the sword, a sword gang is formed! It is said that before the sword arrives, the killing force is invisible, nothing better than this. He has such magical power!" Liang Yan felt excited and couldn't help but ask: "What about this sword pill period?" Dye with white frost. Once a sword cultivator turns his sword into a pill, he will go to heaven and earth in just one thought."
