Chapter 86: Using oneself as bait, fishing for one's luck; promoted to the third level of Foundation Establishment
In fact, the Foundation Establishment monks who serve under the ghost sect can also be said to have good methods. They are good at talismans and therefore have many methods. Change, if you are good at fire-based exercises, I will use the water-based spiritual talisman. If you are good at earth-based exercises, I will use the wood-based spiritual talisman. Plus a ghost, a good magic weapon. It is difficult for ordinary casual practitioners in the Tongxuan world to have it in their hands. Get a good deal.
The problem is that in this battle, the two foundation-building monks from the Ghost Sect met the true successors of two top sects.
Ordinary talismans for restraining swordsmanship and poison were completely ineffective against Lu Cheng and Tang Shi. Even Tang Shi's cultivation was better than them, so he was captured quickly.
Without Lu Cheng’s intention, they wouldn’t even be able to send out the last fourth-level communication talisman.
After capturing the two men, Lu Cheng and Tang Shi returned to where the Chen family brothers and sisters were, and then took them with them, and the four of them returned to Chixin Temple together.
Being hostile to a monk with the highest level of Ningsha, even Lu Cheng with such a courageous and ferocious temper could not help but be cautious.
It’s just that he didn’t talk to Xue Yuzhen and Yun Ling’er about this matter, but he was very cautious on the outside and tight on the inside.
Tang Shi has enough confidence to face Old Monster Youyun. This is Southern Xinjiang. To kill the true inheritance of the Gu God Cult here, Old Monster Youyun may not have the courage.
In addition, he wanted to make friends with Lu Cheng, so he stayed in Chixin Temple. This stay was in March. There was a flying talisman in the sect to pass a message, so he just chose to return.
Looking outside with pure hearts, the group of people reluctantly said goodbye.
"Brother Lu, Brother Chen and Sister Qingyun, my eldest brother has some affairs in my sect, so I have to go back. Keep this talisman, if that old monster Youyun really finds it Here, hold on to the Immediate Spirit Talisman and send the message, and I will come to your aid immediately."
Tang Shi handed Lu Cheng a fourth-level messenger talisman, then signaled to the others, waved his sleeves, and took it with him. A group of Taoist boys rode on the clouds and left.
Monks in the Foundation Establishment Realm are not yet able to control the wind and clouds. Tang Shi is currently using a flying magical weapon from the Gu God Sect called the Cloud Calling Flag.
But Master Yinshan accidentally felt that every time his disciples went in and out of Moyun Cave, or rode scorpions and centipedes, or the black wind billowed, they looked like monsters in the novels, so he ordered someone to specially refine this method. device.
It is also useful to save mana by flying long distances, and you can bring many servants with low cultivation level.
Three months have passed, that is, half a year later.
Even Lu Cheng has let down his guard in his heart, because no matter how cautious Ningsha monk is, it is impossible for him to observe a group of foundation-building monks for more than half a year. That is not cautious. The Ningsha monk's lifespan is not squandered like this, let alone the old monster Youyun who has only a short lifespan.
It seems that this old monster was tied up by something, or failed to trace it here.
However, what people like Lu Cheng didn't know was that Huoyun Mansion was trapped in Longfeng half a year ago.
A short old Taoist with white hair and white eyebrows wearing an old red robe was sitting on a cliff thousands of feet high, fishing with a pole.
Where the bamboo fishing line in his hand extends, there is a vast sea of turbulent clouds. But under the thick clouds, there is a huge dark golden Bagua diagram that is difficult to see with the naked eye, and it is slowly rotating:
Using yourself as bait, fishing for your life.
At the same time, there was a tall, skinny old man in black robes, kneeling on the boulder below the Red God Son and crying.
Only when Chi Shenzi was concentrating on fishing, he did not dare to make a sound. It was not until the old man relaxed his hands a little and relaxed his spirit that he dared to make a sound and cried loudly, as if he had suffered something terrible. The injustice made those who saw it sad and those who heard it shed tears.
This is repeated until seven days later.
"Okay, the fish have been scared away by you. Youyun, you and I met when we were fishing. How did you bribe Gu Taixu to know my whereabouts? I won't tell you. Later I established Huoyun Fu, you gave me a good alchemy furnace , I have always thought of you because of this alchemy furnace, but I have protected you for many years, what do you want to do today?”
Yi Gui Men Youyun’s ancestor kowtowed and separated himself from Fan Xiuhui. The matter was briefly discussed.
Of course, from his perspective, he had been sending his disciples to take care of the Dragon Blood elixir. Fan Xiuhui knew this and used a trick to divert his disciples away and take away the elixir.
“Three of my close disciples who have been trained under my sect for many years died in southern Xinjiang because of this incident. Fan Shenfu is obviously colluding with the Gu God Cult in southern Xinjiang. Please take a closer look, Lord.”
< br>
As he spoke, Ancestor Youyun handed over a communication talisman with both hands.
Even the fourth-level communication talisman, which spans thousands of miles, is already in disrepair at this moment.
The old man in red robe waved his hand, and the talisman fell into his hand.
After a moment of spiritual thought, the old Taoist frowned slightly. After a while, the Scarlet God Son waved out a pill, which fell into the hands of Ancestor Youyun.
"Your longevity is damaged because the Yin evil that you condensed back then was too filthy, and your meritorious deeds have backfired on your body over time. Although I don't have a life-extending pill here, this poison-reducing pill , it can also extend your life span by twenty years. As for the grudge between you and Fan Shenfu, I don’t know about it and don’t want to get involved. You can live and die by your own destiny.”
"Thank you Palace Master for saving your life, You Yun will definitely repay with your life!"
In response to this, Chi Shenzi, who had continued to sit back on the Diaoyutai, did not even look at this place, and just stretched the back of his hand.
After the ancestor Youyun saluted, he slowly retreated and then turned into a cloud of gray mist and escaped.
In fact, even if you get the dragon blood medicine, you cannot refine the life-extending elixir with the main medicine alone. Now that you have lost twenty years of your life, Ancestor Youyun can hunt down Fan Xiuhui with all his strength. Even if the elixir cannot be refined after retrieving the dragon's blood medicine, You Yun still covets Fan Xiuhui's talisman inheritance.
It’s just that for so many years in the Huoyun Mansion, I couldn’t figure out the attitude of the Red God Son, so Youyun didn’t dare to rob him, but now he has an excuse.
This spiritual mountain did not remain peaceful for long as You Yun left.
A bright sword light penetrated the sky and fell on the trapped dragon peak, a few steps closer than where the old monster Youyun was standing just now.
"Master, are you calling me?"
The young man in Taoist robes walked out of the sword light. He had an ordinary face, but he had the aura of a monk. He saluted the master without being humble or overbearing. Straight as a sword.
In the past hundred years, the Red God Son of Huoyun Mansion has recruited a total of twenty-eight disciples, probably the first batch of twelve, the second batch of twelve, and finally four more.
At this time, the sixth disciple Yi Bin came, who had been following the Red God Son for nearly a hundred years and had cultivated to the third level of Gang Refining.
There are millions of monks in Tongxuan Realm. Those who are congenitally unable to enter the realm of Qi training are not considered monks. Those who can cultivate to the realm of foundation building are not only one in a hundred, but I am afraid it is close to one in a thousand in more remote areas. But being accepted as a disciple by Master Jin Dan is different.
First of all, the disciples accepted by Jindan Zhenren are not bad at birth under normal circumstances. There are some disciples who are good at calculation and even have deep luck.
Behind the gate wall, there are real people to train and teach, and there is no shortage of resources. Of course, the probability of foundation building is completely different from that of casual cultivators. Mo Hanyuan, the eldest disciple of the Red God Son, has already reached the ninth level of refining the Gang and achieved his true form. At this time, he is already pondering the golden elixir. Among the first twelve disciples, except for two who had weak Taoist hearts, they have already gone down the mountain. One person became possessed and died unexpectedly. Apart from the external calamity, six of the remaining eight people had already refined their Gang Qi.
Of course, this is also somewhat related to the unyielding path of cultivation of the Sword Immortal lineage, which is vigorous, diligent, and unrivaled.
Breaking through the pass is a bit more dangerous, but also more straightforward.
"Yi Bin, you have been practicing at Jiuyun Peak for some time. Do you feel that your magic power is getting slower and slower?"
"Master's magic eye is as bright as a torch!"
Yi Bin does feel that his true form cultivation is biased recently, and he is a little afraid to continue to improve. Of course, he agrees with Chi Shenzi's words.
"Well, come and see."
Chi Shenzi waved his sleeves. He had just received the magic talisman from Youyun. It disappeared in the air, but the scene recorded in the talisman emerged in the waves of the sea of clouds in front of him. , and it is ten times clearer than what Youyun can see.
Old Monster Youyun could only see the magic of transforming spirits into heaven and the Thousand-Winged Flying Centipede, and this communication talisman was activated by the Red God Son. The last thing the two Ghost Sect foundation-building monks saw was Almost all the pictures that came to the scene were revealed.
The big thing is like a mountain filling up the sea, and the small thing is like a trickle of water. The method of transporting and transforming mana of the Red God Son can only be surpassed by Old Monster Youyun in this life.
"This is? The Twelve Chi Chi Styles, Yuhui Tongxia's change of moves, that person is...Junior Brother Lu Cheng?" When Yan said this, Yi Bin was a little unsure.
Because even with the magic power of the Red God Son, the picture in the clouds and mist is still a little blurry. This is the upper limit of the reflection of the two ghost-fighting monks, and the characters are not clearly illuminated.
"Why, you can't even determine the sect's sword style changes?" Chi Shenzi smiled slightly and dispersed the cloudy scene.
“Of course, disciples know how to use swordsmanship, but Master, you have been in seclusion for many years and are not very familiar with this junior brother Lu Cheng. No one taught him this sword technique, and junior brother Lu Cheng’s swordsmanship talent Also..."
"Alas, there is a male bird in the mountain. It stops at the Taoist Courtyard. It has not been flying for three years and it has not made a sound. However, if this bird is not flying, it is nothing. . The boy was indeed a little dull when he was on the mountain, but some people will become enlightened after going through some experiences. This is the meaning of monks tempering themselves. Otherwise, we monks have bad minds and will find fault for ourselves. Receive."
"Know your true nature, know your original heart, practice it over time, and stick to your original intention, and the great road will begin to appear."
After hearing the master's teachings, Yi Bin also felt that he looked down on others a little too much, so he bowed deeply to show that he accepted the master's teachings.
"In my Huoyun Mansion Dharma lineage, although it is more direct and courageous to break through the barriers of cultivation, if you are unprepared, you will suffer serious damage. Yi Bin, within ten years of being a teacher, there will be people in southern Xinjiang Strange iron falls from the sky, this treasure is destined to our sect, you Go to southern Xinjiang to retrieve it for my master. I will take a look at your junior brother. If he has regained his desire to seek Taoism, I will lead him back to the mountain gate."
"Disciple, follow your orders."
< br>Yi Bin obeyed the imperial edict, bowed and retreated. Not long after, a sword light left Huoyun Mansion.
…………
With the passage of time, Lu Cheng and others in Chixin Guan gradually relieved their pressure and returned to the peaceful life of the past.
Brothers Chen Qingfeng and Chen Qingyun have gone through life and death, but they still have feelings about what they have experienced before. But for this, as a friend, Lu Cheng had no good solution, and he could only resolve the knot on his own.
Lu Cheng focused more on his Taoist practice and cultivating the Hundred Poison Golden Silkworm Gu, choosing to let time heal everything.
Time passes day after day.
In Chixin Temple, there is no shortage of resources and Taoist friends. Lu Cheng has a deep foundation in Taoism, and his magic power naturally increases day by day.
In a closed room.
When the five elements of mana in Lu Cheng's body were flowing to the extreme, a red and flowing brilliance appeared on the young Taoist's strong body and face.
In fact, I have broken through to the third level today. My understanding of Taoism is enough, but there is still some shortcomings in the accumulation of mana. After all, Five Elements Foundation Building is one of the most profound foundation building methods. .
When Lu Cheng reached the peak of his performance and his energy was about to run out, Xue Yuzhen, who was already prepared, took off his clothes and wrapped them around Lu Cheng like a white snake. A stream of pure Yin magic power entered his body. , Lu Cheng felt a chill all over his body, and felt refreshed.
"Sir, the Nine Transformations of Success are inexhaustible."
Upon hearing this, Lu Cheng immediately suppressed his desire and continued to refine these strands of pure Yin magic power.
Although he is cultivating the five elements of magic and the true fire of the earth, Lu Cheng's magic is still somewhat biased towards pure yang. At this moment, the yin and yang are intertwined, immediately giving birth to stronger vitality, boosting the Taoist's magic. The operation has entered a new stage, the realm of the third level of foundation building.
Actually, this level of realm is not a barrier for the current Lu Cheng. Even if you don't act like this, you can successfully break through after another year and a half of saving mana.
However, Lu Cheng is sure that he has enough understanding of the first five levels of the Five Fu Forging Techniques. Appropriate use of force to accelerate breakthroughs will not affect his own Taoist foundation. If he can be diligent but not diligent, then it will be It is a manifestation of lack of confidence in oneself, and the loss is sharp.
The Qi moves like beads, opening up new meridians and integrating into the entire Qigong system; when Lu Cheng’s Qigong is completed, his eyes slowly open.
Xue Yuzhen was already in the corner of the secret room, preparing a small table with books, sake and dishes to celebrate the success together.
"The master's Taoji is profound and powerful, and Yuzhen has never seen anyone like the master who has such magical power at the third level of foundation building."
Xue Yuzhen stepped forward to serve. Lu Cheng put on his clothes and spoke softly.
“My wife loves me because she is selfish; my concubine loves me because she fears me; Yuzhen, you and I don’t have to get along like this.”
“Master, I What I said is true, I was on Dongji Island”
Xue Yuzhen suddenly stopped talking, his face turned a little pale and he stopped talking, and Lu Cheng didn't ask any more questions about it.
No matter what kind of past this beautiful female crown has, she and her daughter were able to escape from birth. Could it be that I couldn't protect them both?
Lu Cheng cherishes his life cautiously, but does not lose courage. This is the quality that a swordsman should have. Without the former, the possibility of going far on this path is too low. Without the latter, You will lose many opportunities that originally belonged to you, and it will also be difficult to prove the Tao.
After several days of seclusion, Lu Cheng and Xue Yuzhen came out of seclusion together. The Chixin Temple was still a prosperous and peaceful scene, and the two looked at each other and smiled.
