Chapter 112 See you again
The next two days were spent dealing with the aftermath.
Li Wuxiang figured out where Zhao Puppet’s incense came from after Cheng Shengfei destroyed the Taiyi Statue——
After Cheng Peixin invited the door god, many residents in Deyang City were also trapped in their homes as she said. She asked Cheng Shengfei to prepare some water in advance, but inside the water there was a special portrait of the Stove King.
The food and water sent by Feiyunguan could not satisfy the trapped people's food and drink, so when they were hungry and thirsty, those people began to worship the Kitchen God. In fact, they were worshiping Zhao Puppet.
These portraits need to be destroyed. Fortunately, with Feiyun Guan coming forward, this matter is not difficult to handle.
After Guo Jianming's soul returned to his body, others were still awake, and Li Wuxiang waited for two days. On the third day, Lu Renjia arrived at Feiyun Temple and asked Cheng Shengfei if he wanted to go with her, but Cheng Shengfei refused.
She felt that since Li Wuxiang had promised to teach Guo Jianming the swordsmanship skills before, he should be considered half a swordsman. But since the half-swordsman was in Feiyun Guan, she had the responsibility to wait for him to get better before doing her own thing.
Lu Renjia was quite satisfied with this answer. She was so satisfied that she agreed to Li Wuxiang's request - after Guo Jianming woke up, she would temporarily take him away to inspect his character and teach him skills.
So on the evening of the third day, Li Wutang said goodbye to Cheng Shengfei and planned to hit the road.
In the past two days, apart from waiting for Guo Jianming to wake up, he was also waiting for the people in Deyang City to reshape the Taiyi statue in the Martial Temple. He reattached his spiritual thoughts to the statue, and the power of will flowed into his body again. This time, there was no Zhao Puppet to grab the incense, and the speed of energy accumulation in the body was extremely alarming. It had reached the stage of "refining energy and becoming a god".
At first, he was still worried about the royal medicine called "Guozhong", but from the collection of world explanations, he knew what it was - a termite nest that was more than a hundred years old.
By drying the part of the termite nest on the ground with fire, and then repeatedly washing it with water, you can get the "national tomb". Then, supplemented by the medicinal materials he bought in Deyang and obtained from Feiyun Temple, you can pass the medicine The method of bathing allows oneself to enter the realm of "refining qi and transforming into spirit".
So it was not difficult at all to obtain the "National Tomb". Before leaving, he rode a horse in the city and had already obtained it. But the reason why he didn't immediately enter the next realm was because he was waiting for someone.
Because in the collection of interpretations from the world, he clarified something that he had long wondered about: the power of incense is so useful, why doesn't everyone use it?
Shijie concentrated on saying that this method actually belongs to "heretics".
In the early stage, if there is a way to absorb the power of wish, your cultivation will indeed improve by leaps and bounds. Because in the foundation building stage, everything acquired is tempering the physical body.
But when the thirty-six sects of exercises reach the stage of elixir formation, or the stage of "refining qi and transforming into gods" in the qi refining realm of the sword sect, the power absorbed by the practitioners begins to be used to temper the soul.
The thirty-six sects of exercises, from the early stages of Qi refining to the peak of Qi refining, are actually not very difficult. Once you enter the door of Qi refining, you will have forty years of youth and longevity. During these forty years, if your qualifications are not too bad and you have sufficient supplies, you can almost reach the peak before your youth is exhausted and get another twenty years. years, so these people don’t need to follow this heretical way.
And those with poor qualifications, whether they are casual cultivators or sect disciples, will not be able to obtain the method of cultivating the power of vows, and they will not be able to take this path even if they want to.
Only a very few practitioners would try this method because of unexpected encounters or out of necessity. It was okay during the stage of tempering the physical body, but when it came time to form the elixir, problems arose.
The power of incense wishes includes countless distracting thoughts and prayers of ordinary people. When a practitioner obtains this power, he or she will create cause and effect one after another. Since the mortal body has limited abilities, it is impossible to fulfill people's wishes one by one like gods. Therefore, once this kind of power enters the soul during the process of forming elixirs, evil thoughts will immediately arise, all illusions will be immortal, and people will become immortal in an instant. To go crazy.
The "Refining Qi and Transforming into God" stage in the True Immortal Body Dao Chapter is to gradually refine the innate Qi refined in the "Refining Qi and Transforming into Spirit" stage into the Yuan Shen. This is actually equivalent to a long process. Dan's early preparation stage.
If Li Wuxiang directly asks himself to enter this realm at this time, he will attract countless causes and effects into his body and lay a huge hidden danger for his future cultivation. Only then did he realize the methods of that guy Zhao Puppet. It’s really a link that has become a bead in Ranshan’s fantasy world, but it has left a big hole!
So the person he is waiting for is the external evil.
The last time he appeared, he defeated Zhao Puppet. This time, it defeated Zhao Puppet again and joined the Sword Sect again. If the sacrifice it wanted was really about "becoming stronger", it should come now.
He walked and waited like this, and when he reached the ruins where he met Lao Guo for the first time, the external evil finally appeared.
Only this time, Li Wuxiang fell into concentration in the bronze mirror.
Cheng Shengfei handed him this mysterious light mirror and taught him how to absorb people's souls into it and how to leave it. And because of the illusion of Ranshan, he couldn't use the remaining brick in his hand for a while, so he took himself into the bronze mirror while resting in the wild.
Here, there were still whispers of resentful ghosts from Lingshan, but Li Wuxiang ignored them all and just kept himself in a state of clear consciousness, which was similar to taking a nap and could restore his energy a little.
In such a clear sky, a sense of grandeur appeared.
Also, he thought he saw something!
It was already late at night outside, and the entire mirror was pitch black without any light. But at the same time that feeling appeared, Li Wuxiang felt that a clear light appeared in front of his eyes - as if at a certain entrance, an extremely strong light was shining in, and a slightly human-shaped thing was standing there. entrance, so the light changes, vaguely reflecting the outline of the thing, constantly changing and flickering.
Then he felt that he heard a voice, as if he was talking to himself in his heart - "This is not a good place to meet. Next time, you shouldn't meet here."
Li Wuxiang suddenly felt his heart beating wildly!
This should be what Waixie said!
He has always wanted to know more about this external evil, but from beginning to end, all he got was "feeling". But now, not only did he see the light, but he also heard the voice in his heart. Although it was just his own voice, it was finally not just his own voice. Accepted!
Now the external evil is interacting with me!
Is it because you are inside the bronze mirror, so you are neither in the Lingshan Mountain nor in the Yang Realm?
However, what excited him was not only this, but also another feeling brought to him by this contact - the grand, hollow, and huge sense of oppression that shrouded Waixie. Just because of this sentence, he felt His heart immediately collapsed!
It can talk!
It has a body!
It can be understood!
Li Wuxiang suppressed this excitement and said in his heart: "I'm curious why you haven't seen me. I killed a Zhenxing Cult leader before and became the leader of Ranshan Sect. It's not considered a success for you. Two big things?" After saying this, he immediately smiled in his heart: "It's not the right way."
Not the right way? Waixie thinks those two things are no big deal?
Li Wuxiang immediately started racing with thoughts in his mind - he had previously thought that the external evil wanted to sacrifice himself to become stronger and stronger. But now, judging from his answer, there is a specific path recognized by Waixie for "becoming stronger"... Sect Master Ranshan is not within that path.
So——
"Is Jian Zong the right path?" Li Wuxiang asked immediately, "Because I joined Jian Zong, you came to see me?"
There is no response this time. Is this the default? Does he want to take advantage of Jian Zong?
Li Wuxiang sighed: "As before, if you explain things more clearly, we will save a lot of trouble. Okay, then I have another thing for you to help - I learned from the real immortal In the Ti Dao chapter, we are now going to the stage of refining Qi and transforming into God, but I inhaled the power of incense before. What should I do about this? ”
This tone was very casual and could even be called disrespectful, but Waixie didn't seem to care about this and immediately gave him the answer——
"I can use external force." Li Wuxiang said to himself in his heart, "This kind of thing is so simple, I didn't think of it, it's really stupid. Wouldn't it be great to find something that can suppress the inner demons? In this world, to talk about Suppression is naturally what the Five Sacred Mountains Sect is best at. There is nothing better than a mountain in the world. Is it thicker? I'm so stupid that I didn't think of such a thing... Oh, I've seen that thing before, it's the True Shape Map of the Five Mountains - I can't get this one, but I can get another one like the one in Xu Daosheng's hand. That kind of magic weapon should be enough for you before forming the elixir!”
In his previous life, he had never heard anyone call him "stupid". But now that he had been scolded twice in a row, Li Wuxiang felt happy again - compared with when he first came, Waixie's temper seemed more flesh and blood.
Maybe it’s really because I’m in the mirror at this moment… In such an environment, I’m closer to “itself”!
So Li Wuxiang said in his heart: "Okay, thank you, I understand. And... I was originally going to the territory of Zhenxing Dao. Is there anything I should pay attention to when I get there? For example, Zhenxing Dao The emperor or god worshiped by Taoism? ”
Check out the 16-9 book bar and see the correct version!
"Be careful not to be stupid." He thought to himself, "Zeng Jianqiu told me that if some swordsmen find out that I am not a human being, I will be in big trouble."
This foreign evil seems to hold a grudge. But he didn't remind himself to be careful of "Tai Yi" - if Tai Yi was really suppressed in the True Form of the Five Mountains.
Li Wuxiang also wanted to test it - ask him if he wanted to provide a tablet for the god since he was already familiar with it.
But the clarity and sense of grandeur suddenly disappeared, as if the external evil had just accidentally thought of him, rushed over to help him solve a problem, and then immediately went back to its own affairs.
Li Wuxiang stayed in the mirror for another quarter of an hour before grabbing a spiritual thought in the darkness - a blood-red figure with minimal will power. Then following the power of the wish, he plunged into the void, emerged from the pool of blood in front of the ancient cave, and came to Lingshan Mountain.
He has been in the Xuanguang Mirror during his breaks these days, not all for "safety", but because of what Zhao Puppet said before in Lingshan.
——If you were in the world of the world, your external evil spirits would be here instantly if you thought about it. But now that you are here - do you know that external evil things also live in Lingshan? He comes from the upper heaven to come to this sea of blood to save you. Guess how long it will take?
If what Zhao Puppet said is true, this time the external evil should have come from the "upper heaven" he mentioned, to the "sea of blood" where the ancient cave is located, and then entered the mirror. He has been asking Zhao Qi to stay in the ancient cave these days. If this guess is true, Zhao Qi should have seen it!
Li Wuxiang stood on the land of flesh and blood in Lingshan Mountain and immediately looked towards the ancient cave——
In the past few days, Zhao Qi has been practicing in the ancient cave, relying on the incense that Li Wuxiang provided him from time to time.
Normally, he would sit upright in the cave just like Zhao Puppet did before, meditate and adjust his breathing just like he did when he was alive. Although it still looks like a bloody human figure, the previous resentment has dissipated, and now the blood on the human figure is relatively smooth. If you don't look closely, you will only feel that the face is peaceful and not very scary.
But now, when Li Wuxiang looked into the cave, he saw Zhao Qi slumped in the ancient cave like a frightened man, with two pairs of bloody eyes wide open, and his mouth that was cracked to the bottom of his ears was not closed. , a truly frightened and inexplicable look.
Li Wuxiang immediately ran to the cave, lit three incense sticks and threw them into his arms, then patted his face: "Hey! Did you see it? What did you see!?"
Zhao Qi slowly turned to look at him, speechless for a moment, as if he was stupid.
At this time, Li Wuxiang noticed something unusual. The land of flesh and blood around the ancient cave has always been entangled with the tumbling, squirming, and twisting remains of resentful ghosts. They emit endless screams and moans from the ground, which are incomparable with those coming from further away. The sounds together formed the harsh wind in Lingshan Mountain.
But now, the ground around the ancient cave is only bloody - the remains soaked in blood and pus are all motionless and tightly connected together, as if they want to squeeze in as much as possible and scream. Others are exposed. It was also at this time that Li Wuxiang realized that the surrounding area was eerily quiet, and the howling wind became distant and misty, as if something had just dispersed it!
He immediately squatted down, pinched Zhao Qi's face, and told him to face him. Then he sent the essence to his throat and blew on him for a long time.
Zhao Qi's body suddenly bounced, and he shuddered as if waking up from a nightmare.
Li Wuxiang asked him again: "What did you see just now!?"
Zhao Qi stared at him with a pair of bloody eyes, and after a moment, he murmured——
"Taiyi...Taiyi..."
"...I saw Taiyi! The external evil you mentioned is Taiyi!"
I want to explain the update time. The reason for the unstable updates in the past two days is due to some external factors. The neighbor is renovating, and I don’t know which house has a dog that is barking, so I didn’t sleep well. As a result, it happened to be that the next stage of the plot had not yet been completed. My mind could not move, and I was still anxious about updating. Suddenly I became even more anxious, and I became crippled by coding.
In fact, I should have realized this problem yesterday and pushed back the update time. It turned out that I could solve it. But at 8 o'clock today, I realized that I had not finished it. I have only finished writing it now.
So on the 22nd, which is the update at 0:05 tomorrow morning, I will postpone it until 18:00 in the evening, so that I can have time to think about it again.
In this way, until now, I still owe a chapter of two thousand words of updates. If the update on the 22nd goes well, the update the day after tomorrow will return to normal according to the previous time, at 0:05 and 8:00 in the morning.
