Chapter 149 Reaching the top of the list and succeeding ahead
As time goes by, the red gold color that is difficult to describe in words, invisible but qualitative, seeps from the void, strand by strand, strand by strand, gathers together, and then becomes entangled. , condensed into a three- to five-foot golden treasure wheel, with spiritual inscriptions falling from all directions, stirring and reverberating.
The whole place is filled with sharp energy.
After a moment's awareness, there are swords clanking on top of people's bones.
Seeing this, Zhou Qing made an immediate decision. He used the method of taking medicine in the "Spiritual Life Gold Drop Book". An astonishing light burst out in his eyes, as if they were real, and he stared at the seal on the secret medicine. Magical move.
Generally speaking, after a monk enters the orifice and reaches perfection, he needs to swallow the secret medicine to impact the soul. However, because of Zhou Qing's practice of "Yuanhuang Dragon Transformation Diagram", he has broken through to the third smallest realm of Qi refining in this mystical skill, condensing the soul and casting the divine soul. Therefore, he can directly use the divine soul to "take medicine" to better exert the secret power. The medicinal effect of the spiritual move is written in the Yaodu chapter.
After taking all the secret medicine and all the spiritual tricks, Zhou Qing used the method of "Spiritual Life Gold-dropping Book" and began to make breakthroughs.
Looking inside, you can see that in the Tao body, as different acupoints vibrate, the spiritual gold energy that has absorbed the efficacy of the secret medicine shines out a straight golden light, shining brightly upwards, directly towards the consciousness. ocean.
The next moment, the sea of consciousness was already golden, as if it had become a golden ocean, with countless golden lights jumping, colliding, tinkling, and ringing non-stop.
A monk's soul condensation is to use the true energy to cleanse the sea of consciousness, so that the soul changes from virtual to real and forms spiritual consciousness.
Zhou Qing has condensed his soul through practicing the "Yuanhuang Dragon Transformation Picture". There is only one soul for a monk, so this time he used the "Spiritual Life Gold Drop Book" to pass the test. He used the secret techniques in the "Spiritual Life Gold Drop Book" that are different from the "Yuanhuang Dragon Transformation Picture" to refine the soul and let him The soul goes one step further.
Following Zhou Qing's movements, Zhou Qing stood on the soul of the sea of consciousness, and wisps of golden spirit patterns suddenly appeared. When outlined, they were like a majestic picture scroll, telling the meaning of sharpness and change.
Three days later, Zhou Qing opened his eyes, his brows were sharp, and he completed the challenge.
After he was promoted to the realm of soul condensation with Biyou Palace's true skill "Yuanhuang Dragon Transformation Picture", he was promoted to the realm of soul condensation again with "Spiritual Life Gold Book", one of the five qi and four methods of Zhenyi Sect. , the two swords combine to reach a higher level.
Using two first-class Qi refining methods to break through and condense the soul is very rare in this realm. At the same time, it also makes the soul mutate and become more powerful.
Zhou Qing sensed the strength of his soul and nodded secretly. If he faced Yuan Yan from Taixiao Sect again, he wouldn't dare to say he would win, but he would definitely not be able to stand firm like last time.
In the battle of monks at the Qi refining level, whether the soul is strong or not has a great relationship.
To a certain extent, for monks in the realm of qi refining, two aspects are important, one is true qi, and the other is soul.
“The mutated soul.”
Zhou Qing thought for a while, the soul standing in the sea of consciousness moved, and the consciousness suddenly expanded to the outside.
In the distance, the skylight falls into the sky, and the valley is full of bright colors, like clouds of silver light running around. When it touches the outstretched pine branches, it reflects the fluttering color of the pine trees. There is a poetic and picturesque feeling between the light and dark. .
The sunlight in the sky, the sound of the water below, the color of the pine trees in the middle, everything is seen by the spiritual consciousness, and then fed back to the soul, frame by frame, very clear.
Zhou Qing was familiar with his stronger soul, and his consciousness swept up and down, sharp and clear.
After ordinary monks advance to the third minor realm of Qi refining and condense their souls, their souls turn from virtual to real and give birth to spiritual consciousness, which can extend as far as three to five feet away.
The "Yuanhuang Transforms into a Dragon" that he had practiced before had laid an extremely solid foundation. As soon as he entered the realm of soul condensation, the range of his spiritual consciousness could already be extended to more than ten feet.
Now through the promotion of the "Spiritual Life Gold Book", the soul has been strengthened, and the range of the spiritual consciousness can be extended to twenty feet.
Such a range of spiritual consciousness can’t be matched by most monks in the yin and yang realm, the fourth minor realm of Qi refining.
When Zhou Qing reaches the point of perfect concentration, the scope of his spiritual consciousness will be even greater!
"Huh?"
At this moment, Zhou Qing's consciousness moved. Outside, mountain flowers fell into the valley, and among the falling sounds, a tangy fragrance seemed to spread. Huang Yuezheng was walking over, On the jade face, reflecting the skylight, there is a kind of joy.
Good things come to you?
He pondered for a moment, got up and went outside, waiting quietly. In less than half a quarter of an hour, the spring-brimmed yellow moon turned around the corner.
"Deacon Huang." Zhou Qing smelled the faint fragrance from a distance and said with a smile: "Is there any good news?"
"It is indeed great news." Huang Yue came closer and clearly His eyes like autumn water could not hide his excitement, and he said: "The latest ranking list of competing true disciples has been announced."
"It seems there is a good result." Zhou Qing's eyes flashed, like this The list looks informal, but is actually very precise.
Because the list has passed through the hands of the powerful real people in the sect, and they are responsible for the promotion assessment from inner disciples to true disciples, and they are well-deserved "examiners".
How can a list made by them not be accurate and authoritative?
Zhou Qing turned around and said, "I just don't know which number it is?"
Huang Yue didn't show off and said directly: "First."
"No. "One?" Zhou Qing was really surprised after hearing this. He was in last place last time, but he didn't expect that he would jump to the top this time?
He couldn't help but look Huang Yue up and down. Did he underestimate the pusher arranged by the clan to attack the true disciples? Does she still have such strength?
Huang Yue noticed Zhou Qing's gaze and quickly explained: "I just did what I could. With this result, on the one hand, Mr. Qing, you have been really dazzling recently, no one can match it. It’s impressive. On the other hand, the clan has great support for you and is fully committed to helping you.”
Although she is in charge of various matters related to Zhou Qing’s attack on the True Inheritance, she is mostly used to help you. The icing on the cake. Her work not only requires Zhou Qing to rush forward and open up the situation, but also requires the support of the Luochuan Zhou family behind her to turn her ideas into reality.
Zhou Qing's eyes were like lightning and he said, "Let me take a look."
"Here it is." Huang Yue was prepared, took out a jade book from her sleeve, and handed it over Go up.
Zhou Qing took it and unfolded it to see that it was densely packed with words, not only rankings, but also various scores, detailed introductions, analysis and judgments, etc., etc., everything.
“Zongmen.”
Zhou Qing looked at the jade book with an inexplicable smile on his face.
The sect has its own style in this regard.
There are two versions of the list of competing true biographies in each issue, an abridged version and a detailed version. Although the abridged version is free, it only has one ranking and very little information. Detailed versions are available, but you have to pay for them. Don't underestimate this, after all, the price of the detailed version is not low at all, and with so many people buying it, the sect can make a fortune in this aspect with just one update.
However, Zhou Qing knew that the real person in charge of the true inheritance in the sect would not get any benefits from this aspect. They sent it to the sect for overall planning and use for sect affairs.
Anyway, in the Zhenyi Sect, the game between the sect and the major families and forces below has always been exciting.
"It is indeed the first."
Zhou Qing suppressed his thoughts and flipped through the jade book. He himself topped the list this time, but his advantage was extremely weak. There was only a slight difference between Xiao Xin and Li Bixiao in second place, and the gap between Lin Li in third place and Hou Zhang in fourth place was also very small.
The fifth and sixth teams followed closely behind, but did not widen the gap.
The competition among true disciples has become fierce now. The gap between them is very small. Until the end, I don’t know who will lose and who will win.
Huang Yue saw Zhou Qing flipping through the jade album attentively, so she stood aside and said: "With less than three months to go before the deadline, the one who has the best chance of being promoted to the True Successor of this session may be the one on the list. The top six."
Zhou Qing nodded. There are only three true candidates in this session, and there are seven people in the top six on this list. The competition is indeed fierce.
Zhou Qing turned the jade book to the page where he introduced himself. He looked at it and pointed out his shortcomings. His face was calm and he said: "Deacon Huang, you continue to work and maintain this momentum. What is missing I know this part well and will make up for it, and I won’t let it hold me back.”
Lingyao Qi Mansion.
In the cave, there are large flags standing one after another, some are long, some are short, some are wide, some are narrow, some are three feet, five feet, seven feet, nine feet, one foot, or one foot high. There are many kinds of gold and jade, or they are decorated with beads and embroidery, or they are decorated with colorful carvings, and they are all different.
Different large flags are inserted in different directions, connecting the earth's veins, and the spiritual energy is attracted, and then gathers in the center through a mysterious trajectory, forming a different phase like hanging beads. , hanging down.
Obviously, this is a very powerful formation arranged in the cave. It uses the earth veins as the eyes of the formation to continuously refine and sublimate the earth energy.
Not to mention the mysterious formation method, just looking at each big banner, you don't know how many heavenly materials and earthly treasures were used, which ordinary inner disciples cannot afford.
Lin Li was sitting on the cloud couch, tall and straight with broad eyebrows and long eyes. Above the door, a stream of true energy rushed straight upward. The top end spread out like a fan, holding up a treasure like a bronze axe.
He also held a jade album in his hand and was flipping through it. He raised his eyebrows and said nothing. Reflected by the lights in the cave, you can see that the jade book is full of pictures and texts, with lists and detailed introductions.
It is the ranking of the true disciples competing for it, the same as what Zhou Qing has in his hands, a detailed version purchased at a high price.
In the cave, there was still a person standing. He had a pair of impressive red eyes. He spoke and said: "Zhou Qing's name in the Tianxiang Academy, and his fight with Taixiao Zong Yuanyan The impact of this incident is beyond our expectation.”
When he said this, his voice was deep.
After all, he had overestimated the impact of these two things as much as possible, but now that the list has been updated, it turns out that the impact is greater than he imagined.
At the very least, the big shots responsible for the promotion of true disciples recognize this.
"Zhou Qing is also very lucky." Lin Li closed the jade album, raised his sword eyebrows, and said: "There happened to be no major events in the mountain gate recently. As a result, the influence of Zhou Qing's name in the Astronomical Academy continued, and he was not affected by it. Interrupt."
"Don't worry too much." Lin Li glanced at his right-hand man across from him and said with a smile on his face: "Although Zhou Qing jumped to the top of the list, you also saw it. The jade book, there is no gap between the few of us."
"Furthermore," Lin Li pushed the jade book on the case and said, "Zhou Qing's rise is indeed extremely fast. No one can match it, but it goes too fast and has irreparable flaws in its impact on the true legacy.”
"Compared to the rest of us, he is the only one with obvious flaws and shortcomings."
The man with a pair of red eyes thought for a moment, then remembered the contents of the jade album he was flipping through, and said: " Zhou Qing's accumulation of merit is seriously insufficient."
"Not bad." Lin Li stood on top of the door, his true energy surged, and said in a clear voice: "With Zhou Qing's talent and background, he can compete for the next True Successor. It’s a sure bet, but he’s not competing for this term’s true inheritance.”
Speaking of it, it’s not too difficult to accumulate merit in the sect. It just requires enough time and energy to complete the tasks of the Merit Academy.
But Zhou Qing rose to prominence in a short period of time and spent most of his time and energy on cultivation. How can he allocate enough time and energy to accumulate merit?
The man with red eyes shook his head secretly after hearing this.
Zhou Qing will definitely not let it go if he has the opportunity to compete for the true successor of this session.
After all, when it comes to cultivation, it is better to hurry up than later. The sooner you are promoted to the True Successor of the Shinichi Sect, the sooner you can get more resources and support from the sect, and you have more hope of progress. And if it is delayed for a long time, variables may easily occur.
Who knows if someone will suddenly emerge in the next competition? No one can say for sure.
Lin Li turned around a few times and made a decision, saying: "The deadline is approaching. During this period, I am going to take on a few tasks and try to accumulate merit."
Almost at the same time, Li Bixiao, Xiao Xin, Hou Zhang, etc., everyone who was on the list of true legends in this competition, all came up with the idea of going to the Court of Merit to receive tasks and gain merit.
In the middle of the gate is the Gongde Courtyard.
There is a river running through the pavilion. Thousands of carefully prepared golden lanterns are floating on the water, shining like stars.
Looking from a distance, thousands of golden lanterns are flowing down the river. From time to time, golden fire rises into the sky, and when the Qi machine touches it, it turns into a splendid splendor.
In the pavilion, a lampstand decorated with lotus flowers is placed on the jade and clear tables. Under the lampstand, a jade box is pressed. From the hollow part of the jade box, the fragrance emerges, dense and dense, like smoke and clouds.
Zhu Zhenren sat still. He pressed his white eyebrows and flipped through the jade album in his hand. After a while, he put it down and said with a smile: "I have been very diligent recently. All the tasks in the Merit Courtyard are completed very quickly."
There is also a middle-aged man in the pavilion. Judging from his state of cultivation, he has just condensed the elixir, but he is standing there without any restraint.
Obviously, he is a direct descendant of Zhu Zhenren and one of his own.
Hearing Zhu Zhenren's words, he turned his eyes and said: "They are all geniuses in the sect who are competing for this generation of true successors. They seem to have made an agreement. Recently, they have frequently taken on tasks in Gongdeyuan."< br>
Zhu Zhenren looked calm on the face, but in his heart he was like Ming Jing. The more tasks they took on, the less tasks they left for Zhou Qing. It became more difficult for Zhou Qing to accumulate enough merit in a short period of time.
However, he would not care about such things. Anyway, this does not violate the rules of the sect. Such actions are also beneficial and harmless to Gongdeyuan.
