Chapter 893 Preparation before retreat
Liang Yan looked at the three groups of auras in mid-air, but there was no big fluctuation in his heart. Although the two treasures introduced by Yuan Ya Lao Dao just now are of extraordinary quality, they really don't have much appeal to him.
Let’s talk about the "Thunder Fire Golden Pearl" first. This magic weapon can evoke the power of thunder and fire. With the early stage of the Golden Pill, it can deliver a full blow equivalent to the peak of the Golden Pill. It can be said to be a very heaven-defying magic weapon. .
In the entire Nanchui, I am afraid that only the Supreme Elders of the Tongxuan Realm of the five major sects can refine this kind of magic weapon.
However, this magic weapon is as useless to the current Liang Yan. Since he cultivated the sword, he has already held a killing weapon in his hand. Once the Mayfly Sword comes out, don't compete with it, even if it is The old monster Yang Yan who was at the peak of the golden elixir also died under this sword, so why is there any need for this "thunder and fire golden bead" that can only be used once after being warmed for a hundred days?
As for the second treasure, "Nine Songs Purple Spirit Pill", taking this pill can immediately increase the cultivation level of the Golden Pill monks for twenty years. It can be said to be a magical pill. I'm afraid the entire Yungang Sect only has this. One grain.
If it were any other golden elixir monk, he would covet this "Nine-Tune Purple Spirit Pill", but Liang Yan would not.
He has the "Jue Tian Dao Foundation" in his body, which can swallow up the sect's luck and transform it into his own cultivation. After practicing Taoism for more than sixty years, he has already achieved the golden elixir.
This effect is too heaven-defying, so it is also controlled by the way of heaven, and the inability to take elixirs that enhance cultivation is the disadvantage of Juetian Daoji.
Therefore, although the "Jiuqu Purple Spirit Pill" has endless magical uses, in Liang Yan's eyes, it is really no different from waste.
Seeing that he was not interested in these two treasures, Old Taoist Yuan Ya was slightly surprised. After a moment of pause, he stretched out his hand, pointed at the treasure in the last cyan light group and said:
"This is' The "Nirvana Incense" is something passed down by the ancestor of my Yungang Sect. It has no fighting ability. It can't improve your cultivation, but it has an effect, that is, wearing it can cultivate your own spiritual consciousness, and practicing the secret method of the soul will get twice the result with half the effort!"
Liang Yan heard this, There was a slight movement in my heart, and I secretly thought: "This thing is in line with my wishes. I major in swordsmanship." , if we just talk about the offensive power, it is actually close to the monks in Tongxuan Realm, but when it comes to the power of the soul, it is only ordinary. If I have the help of this treasure, it can make up for my weak spiritual consciousness. "
Thinking of this, Liang Yan didn't hesitate at all and arched his teeth. He cupped his hands and said, "Thank you so much for the treasure, master, uncle. I have made up my mind and want this 'Incense of Nirvana'."
Old Taoist Yuan Ya saw that he had made up his mind, so he nodded and raised his hand. With a casual wave, the sandalwood pendant in the blue light flew out lightly, and finally landed in Liang Yan's hand.
Liang Yan stretched out his hand to take the "Incense of Nirvana", feeling happy in his heart. He took another step forward, bowed deeply towards the old Taoist Yuan Ya, and thanked him: "Master, uncle, I love you so much. I am grateful to you!"
Yuan Ya smiled and waved his hand and said: "If we talk about personal matters, I do have some love. After all, you traveled thousands of miles to find me a marrow-cleaning glass, which greatly alleviated my pain."
When he said this, he paused and said: "But You have to know that the three treasures I just showed are One is not the treasure of our Yungang Sect, that is, you can cultivate the golden elixir in just a few decades and become the first person in the history of our sect. Otherwise, even if I am the Supreme Elder, I will not be able to use this at will. A treasure given to you.”
Liang Yan nodded slightly after hearing this. In the world of cultivation, strength must always be respected. This is an eternal law. If a sect's rewards and punishments are unclear and all its disciples are lazy, then no matter the sect's background, No matter how deep it is, there is still the fear of death in the end.
"The way to practice is to sail against the current. If you don't advance, you will retreat! I understand this principle well and will never dare to disappoint the high expectations of my master and uncle. I will definitely practice hard in the future." Liang Yan took a deep breath, his expression Said seriously.
"Okay!"
Old Taoist Yuan Ya smiled slightly, and then slowly said: "During the Yungang catastrophe fifty years ago, our Yungang Sect suffered heavy losses. Among the eight former peak masters, only Four people survived. Now counting Pu Nansheng and Shen Tusu, there are still two vacancies. I want You are in charge of Yifeng, what do you think?"
Liang Yan was so surprised that he would say this. You must know that in Yungang Sect, being in charge of Yifeng is a powerful right. Not only does it have countless resources, but it can also be used to participate. Studying the secret books in the sect is a great thing that outsiders can't even imagine.
But this matter is not suitable for Liang Yan.
He plundered the Galaxy Palace and the Monster Clan's treasure house, and had no shortage of resources at his disposal. Although the more spiritual stones the better, there were many trivial matters that came with it after becoming the leader of a peak.
For example, opening a dojo, teaching the Dharma, recruiting disciples, mentoring disciples, many troublesome things, and occasionally participating in major decisions of the sect, these are not what Liang Yan wants.
What he wants now is to find a place to quietly practice in seclusion.
After Liang Yan stood there and pondered for a moment, he cupped his hands and replied: "Thank you for your kindness, master, uncle. It's just that my disciple has only been practicing for a long time, has little experience, and is not yet proficient in Taoism. How can I dare to accept a disciple shamelessly?" What's more, above me Master Yu Xuanji is the leader of Guanyu Peak. How dare this disciple take charge of a peak and discuss friendship with my master?”
After hearing this, Yuan Ya took a deep look at Liang Yan and saw him. His expression was sincere, and he didn't seem to be hypocritical, and he couldn't help but frown. , secretly thinking: "I don't think this guy is lying. Could it be that someone really ignored the leader of Yifeng and became an ordinary second-generation disciple?"
He pondered for a moment, Finally, he nodded and said: "It's okay, people Everyone has his own ambitions. Since you don't want to be the master of this peak, the old Taoist will not force you. If you encounter any bottlenecks in your sect's cultivation from now on, you can come to me directly at the "Flawless Peak". The old Taoist will not hesitate to give me advice. .”
"Thank you, uncle!" Liang Yan nodded and respectfully bowed to him as a disciple.
"Okay, just retreat."
Yuan Ya waved his sleeves, and the expression on his face returned to calm.
Liang Yan didn't say much when he saw this, and silently backed out of the cave entrance. As soon as he left, the upside-down waterfall closed again, and the entire "Flawless Peak" twisted and swayed, and a moment later it was in the cave. Disappeared in mid-air.
“Tongxuan realm monks are really good!”
Looking at the empty sky, Liang Yan thought to himself. In fact, after entering the cave, he had been quietly sizing him up, secretly comparing himself with this great uncle.
"Even if he is seriously injured now, I am afraid that with my current strength, I still can't defeat him."
This is the conclusion Liang Yan finally came to.
After he cultivated the golden elixir, he became more competitive. Knowing whether to achieve the golden elixir is a big gap on the road to cultivation.
Liang Yan was born as a swordsman, and he had acquired the peerless secrets such as "Tao Sword Sutra" and "Shadowless Sword Sutra". He also had magical weapons in his hands. During the foundation building period, he could kill people in the middle stage of Juyuan Realm, even those in the middle stage of Juyuan Realm. A monk in the late Juyuan realm.
However, he has been cultivating to the late stage of Juyuan Realm, and it is difficult to cross the level to compete with the golden elixir monks. This is because once the golden elixir is completed, the magical power and strength will change drastically. Liang Yan has accumulated a lot of experience. After achieving the Golden Core, he is no longer afraid of any Golden Core monk. Especially with the increasing refinement of his Mayfly Sword, he can now kill famous demon cultivators like Old Monster Yang Yan.
So the first time he saw Yuan Ya Lao Dao, he was not in awe, but secretly calculating in his heart, if he and this great uncle were to go against each other, what would happen to him? Chances of winning?
However, after countless deductions, Liang Yan still came to a conclusion in his mind, that is, judging from his current strength, it should be difficult to defeat this seriously injured uncle.
Thinking of this, Liang Yan suddenly smiled and said to himself: "Liang Yan, Liang Yan, why do you have so much desire to win? Being brave and ruthless is not the way to immortality. , you have to be careful about going astray!”
After saying this in his heart, he didn't look back, pinched the technique with one hand, and drove a ray of light away from the back mountain of Yungang Sect.
Liang Yan left the hidden peak of Yungang Sect. After that, he did not rush back to his "Danyang Peak" immediately, but came to the "Tianwu Pavilion" in Zhaoxia Peak.
He has now gathered all the materials and can proceed to the second stage of condensing the sword pill at any time, which is the "opening" stage of the "sword seizing method".
This "opening the furnace" as the name suggests, is to place the flying sword in the furnace for repeated sacrifices. After eighty times of refining the sword, the furnace is opened and the sword is taken out.
It’s just that this “smelting furnace” is not an ordinary weapon refining furnace, but a formation barrier made from the secret methods of the Taoist Sword Sutra and various heavenly materials and earthly treasures.
The materials he collected in the Galaxy Palace have already met most of the needs for sword refining. The remaining four materials, Yuanshi Grass, Celestial Silkworm Secret Sand, Poisonous Dragon Ghost Egg and Golden Phoenix Dew, the first three were also made up within the sect. The last one was taken back from the treasure house of the North Sea Demon Clan.
Now Liang Yan has everything ready, except for some special formation equipment. These equipment are all recorded in the secret book of "Tao Sword Classic", and there is no ready-made equipment that can be used.
So he went to Tianwu Pavilion, spent a lot of spirit stones, and invited several fellow disciples who were skilled in weapon refining to start building special formation flags and formation disks according to his requirements.
After explaining these juniors in detail, Liang Yan took advantage of the escape light and hurriedly left Chaoxia Peak and came to the White Tiger Pavilion of the sect.
Baihu Pavilion is the place where Yungang Sect issues sect missions. When he first came here, he was still a young Qi Refining monk, and the first mission he took was "Guarding the Sword Pavilion".
Now that he is here again, Liang Yan is already the Jindan elder of Yungang Sect. He is not here to accept tasks, but to issue tasks.
The White Tiger Pavilion has three lists from top to bottom: gold, silver and yellow. After Liang Yan entered the White Tiger Pavilion, he went directly to the "Silver List" on the second floor. There was an old man with a hunched back. The person sitting on the wooden table behind the list was sleepy, and he didn't even glance at the disciple who came to take over the task.
Liang Yan smiled, walked in front of the old man, and woke the man up from his dream with just a breath of air in his body.
The old man was slightly startled, hurriedly wiped his saliva, stood up from behind the wooden table, and said with some fear: "Disciple Ma Xiaoyuan, I don't know if it is the elder of the sect who came here. I am disrespectful. Please forgive me. Sin!”
“Ma Xiaoyuan”
Liang Yan was stunned for a moment, and a figure suddenly appeared in his mind.
When he first came to Baihu Pavilion, he met an enthusiastic senior brother named "Ma Xiaoyuan".
At that time, I didn’t know anything about how to accept sect tasks. It was this “Senior Brother Ma” Ma Xiaoyuan who explained to him what the three lists of gold, silver and yellow were, and how to distinguish sect tasks from personal tasks. .
Looking back at the beginning, Ma Xiaoyuan was very high-spirited and high-spirited. After all, he joined a large sect such as Yungang Sect at a young age, so he naturally had great ambitions in his heart.
But who would have thought that time is not forgiving. Now, sixty years later, the high-spirited disciple still failed to build the foundation of the spiritual platform and was still stuck in the realm of Qi refining stage.
If a monk cannot cultivate the foundation, he will still be a mortal after all. The most he can do is strengthen his body and live a hundred years without any disease.
Sixty years have passed, and now Ma Xiaoyuan is no longer the high-spirited young man he was back then, but has become an old man with a hunchback.
He was not successful in cultivating Taoism, and he was undisciplined. He was unwilling to go down the mountain to manage the secular property of the sect, so he found a job in the sect, which was to register tasks.
This job is not only leisurely, but also some of his fellow disciples come to him to deliver some spirit stones, elixirs, etc. in order to know the status of the mission in advance on weekdays. Ma Xiaoyuan is also happy to beat the autumn wind.
His heart for the Tao has been wiped out long ago. On weekdays, he either chats nonsense with his junior disciples, or lies drunk in the mountains, watching the ebb and flow of the tide, and just thinks that's it. But my whole life has been quite free
After Ma Xiaoyuan saw Liang Yan, he didn't seem to recognize him. He just stood aside in fear, fearing that he would be punished by the elder for being lazy and sleeping just now.
Liang Yan naturally wouldn't care about such trivial matters. He glanced at Ma Xiaoyuan and could still vaguely recognize some traces of his past, and felt a little sad in his heart.
"You don't have to panic. Liang is here just to release a task and needs your help to register."
Seeing that he didn't embarrass himself, Ma Xiaoyuan couldn't help but secretly breathed a sigh of relief. Immediately he said respectfully: "Please ask the elders for your instructions. The disciple must record them in detail."
"Yes."
Liang Yan nodded and said: "I need twelve foundation-building monks who are proficient in formations and very sensitive to spiritual power to serve as my sword-making boys and assist me in presiding over a formation. The reward for the task is Eight hundred spiritual stones and one 'Rongling Pill' for each person."
"Rongling Pill. ? This is an excellent elixir that can help the monks in the Foundation Establishment Stage compress and purify their spiritual power, and it will also be of great help in gathering Qi and returning to their original state in the future. Since Uncle Master is willing to take out this elixir, then! I'm afraid someone will overtake me for this task." Ma Xiaoyuan flattered him without leaving a trace.
Liang Yan didn't pay much attention to this. He just smiled slightly and carefully gave some relevant instructions. After seeing Ma Xiaoyuan post his task on the silver list, he nodded and turned around. Walked out of Baihu Pavilion.
Thanks to: Book friend 20171004212112341 for the reward!
