Chapter 218: One Picture, Two Methods and Three Great Techniques
Or words, or pictures, or ink, or nothing...
Xu Heng was slightly dazzled, and all this had already appeared in his mind. Only then did he hear Zhong Daoren say: "Give me one picture, two methods, and three great techniques."
Xu Heng was silent for a moment, and then he said respectfully: "This is a gift from my master, and I dare not refuse it. Disciple Xu Heng, I would like to thank my master for the gift of the law."
Zhong Daoren nodded slightly, said no more, waved his hand and said, "Go on your own."
As soon as he finished speaking, Xu Heng felt that the fog around him seemed to be getting thicker again.
He bowed again and slowly walked out of the valley. The mountain wind was blowing in the fog, and for a while there was already heavy fog in all directions.
Xu Heng glanced at the path under his feet and just walked down, thinking distractedly as he walked.
One picture, two methods, three great techniques.
The first picture is a simple painting with a few strokes of ink, which seem to be just a few lines, circling and converging towards the center, but not connected, giving people a feeling of unfinished meaning.
Xu Heng knew that this 'picture' must have a mystery that could only be understood but could not be expressed in words, but he could not detect it for the moment, so he had to put it down for the time being.
The second method is a compendium of spells and a method of refining weapons.
The spell outline is of course very profound. Xu Heng glanced at it briefly and already wanted to be immersed in it. If it wasn't really the wrong time, he would have wanted to retreat and read it intensively. As for the weapon refining method, it is a famous ritual weapon in the Xuanwei Sect. The method of refining.
Xu Heng had no intention of refining the magic weapon for the time being, so he glanced over briefly, focusing on the three great arts.
The three great arts are the Xuanwei Hengfa Great Spell, Xuanwei Transformation True Water, and Taifu Golden Light Escape.
The Xuanwei Hengfa Great Spell is the method used by Chen Taichen to resist Xu Hengfei's sword in the Xumi Cave. It is said to be invincible to all means and is a supreme Taoist technique for protecting one's body and even the Tao.
The Xuanwei Transformation True Water is a water technique with infinite magical effects. Both of these are secret Taoist techniques of the Xuanwei Sect. Xu Heng knows some of its powerful features, but he has never heard of the Taifu Golden Light Escape.
After taking a closer look, I realized that it is a powerful escape technique based on light method. However, unlike his fire escape technique, this escape technique only emphasizes the word "quick", and in this way, it can be said that It's to the extreme.
Although it can't move as freely as his Fire Escape, move around at will, and display endless changes, but with the Escape Technique, the golden light can travel thousands of miles and thousands of miles within a short distance, which shows how powerful this golden light escape is.
"Tai Fu, Tai Fu..." Xu Heng muttered silently, having some guesses about the origin of this strange escape technique.
But since it was passed on to him, it wouldn't be too hard to bear.
Although Xu Heng was thinking in his mind, his footsteps did not stop. He quickly walked out of the fog and found that there was a bluestone avenue going straight down in front of him.
He didn't need to look back to know that behind him he was heading to Taiguang Peak, and that going down was the way down to Taiguang Mountain.
Xu Heng smiled slightly, tapped his toes, and seemed to be floating downwards on the breeze. In a short while, he was halfway through the journey.
At this time, he suddenly heard the faint sound of a flute in the wind. He looked at a familiar road and couldn't help but paused briefly.
But soon, he set off again, accompanied by the sound of the flute, and walked down the mountain along the Bluestone Avenue.
And perhaps, because Xu Heng's figure disappeared at the end of the mountain road, the sound of the flute finally faded away.
…
The green hills are green and surrounded by mist. Looking back, Taiguang Immortal Mansion has disappeared again, Xu Heng no longer stayed, raised the cloud method and rose into the sky.
If he wanted to return to Tianchi, he could just fly straight north. Xu Heng was already familiar with the road, but when he came down the mountain, another thought occurred to him.
The last time, Xu Heng returned to the mountains from Tiannan, and his heart was as fast as an arrow. Therefore, although he passed by Tianfeng, he did not stop there, but now he has some thoughts of looking for his old friends.
Thinking of this, Xu Heng changed his direction slightly, and soon saw the towering Yingzhou City appearing in his field of vision.
When he went down to Taiguang Mountain when he was young, it took him fifty or sixty days to get out of the deep mountains and return to the world.
Now, just by using the cloud magic to escape, this journey has been reduced to a stone's throw away.
The difference between the past and the present did not make Xu Heng feel too much. He hid his body, walked around in Yingzhou City, and ordered a banquet at Zuixian Tower before heading to Yingzhoufang City. Thinking of the underworld, I found that Changsun Laodao's alchemy room seemed to be gone.
The sign on the door of the store has changed its appearance, and the products they sell are no longer elixirs, but talisman paper and cinnabar.
Xu Heng's eyebrows moved slightly, he stepped into the store, knocked on the counter gently, and said: "Shopkeeper, I want to inquire about something."
The person behind the counter raised his eyes, originally unwilling to pay attention, but when he saw Xu Heng's palm touching, an extra French coin appeared on the counter, his tone immediately softened, and he said, "Fellow Taoist, just ask."
Xu Heng nodded slightly and asked, "Do you remember that this store was originally the alchemy room of Master Zhangsun? I wonder where he is now?"
"Oh? So it turns out that fellow Taoist is Alchemist Xun Changsun?" The shopkeeper said with a sigh and a bit of envy: "I heard that he sold his alchemy house in order to seek the opportunity to condense evil spirits, and left Yingzhou to travel around and seek... The evil is gone.”
Xu Heng didn't expect to get this answer and couldn't help but be startled.
When he came back to his senses, he still didn't know whether this was a happy event.
Old Taoist Changsun was a disciple of Qimingyuan who came down the mountain after failing to seek enlightenment in Taiguang Mountain. His foundation was shallow and his magic power was weak. Even if he was really successful in cultivation, it would be difficult for him to unite and consolidate the Earthly Evil Spirit. Why did he come up with this intention?
I'm afraid there is only one reason, and that is the worry of longevity.
Xu Heng felt a little sad. He left Yingzhoufang City and found the door of Ji's Mansion. He found that the door was closed and deserted. After asking others, he found out that after the death of the Ji family's mistress, the 'hero' of the Ji family , he dismissed his servants and left home to "travel in the world."
This is of course a common saying, but Xu Heng knew that Ji Tingsheng was probably looking for evil together with Changsun Laodao.
However, knowing that the two old friends were traveling together, Xu Heng's sadness eased a little.
He still returned to Zuixian Tower and had a drink alone.
The taste of ordinary restaurants is naturally not good, but Xu Heng still drank until late at night and bought another jar before leaving Yingzhou City alone at night.
He had an intuition that since his old friend was no longer here, he might not be able to visit this place again in the future.
Xu Heng did not run away, so he strode forward along the official road while drinking wine.
Not long before dawn, Xu Heng suddenly heard a roaring sound in his ears. As he walked, he saw a mighty river, rushing and winding to a very far away place.
"Jingshui." Xu Heng walked to the riverside and had finished drinking the wine. He was not drunk at all. He just shook his head and smiled, then threw the wine jar aside and stood facing the river.
Suddenly, the endless water vapor on the river surface rolled towards him.
