Chapter 309: Taking the lead in weighing the power of the elixir
It was late, and the moon was at the top of the sky.
A line of smoke shot out from a distance, and when it reached the front, it suddenly fell to the ground and spread out into a cold pine-colored green all over the ground. Zhou Xibai walked out of it, wearing a star crown on his head and a robe on his body. Wearing a colorful cassock, a pair of thin eyebrows were raised, and the eyes below were bright and lively.
He stood outside and looked at the manor in front of him. The buildings were hidden among the green mountains and green waters. From time to time, spiritual flowers would float out from the corners of the eaves, blowing in the wind and fluttering. , dispersed into the air full of auspicious aura, purple and green lingering.
Seeing this, Zhou Xibai nodded secretly. The owner of the mansion is not only the leader of this generation in the clan, but also a rising star of the Zhenyi Sect who has reached the highest level of elixir. This should be the atmosphere in the mansion.
At this moment, footsteps sounded, and Zhou Lingling also arrived. She wore a high bun, a palace skirt, and light makeup. She had a quiet temperament. As she walked, the cold light in front of her knees swayed like the melting moonlight.
"Both of you are here."
Zhou Wangzhi took a step forward and greeted the two of them. He didn't say much, just held his breath and adjusted his energy.
He was working outside. After receiving the order, he hurried over. Now his breath is still rising and falling.
Zhou Xibai waited for a while, and after seeing that Zhou Wangzhi had adjusted well, he said hello and stepped forward together to enter the mansion.
The three of them once practiced elixir power together under the eight-sided copper pillar, and then moved around more. They had a vague friendship of helping each other, just like they were taking the imperial examination in the same year.
The old housekeeper greeted them at the door. After asking a few questions, he ordered a maid beside him to lead the three of them to the main hall of the manor.
Zhou Wangzhi walked inside and looked around.
There is a river passing through the entire manor from south to north. At this time, it was still in the dead of night, and the moonlight tilted between the waves, reflecting the light of the orbs on the jade lamps above, making the surroundings bright and pure.
The cold and quiet moonlight, waves and lights flow together to the steps of the main hall, side halls, living rooms, study rooms and other buildings built along the river. The light and steps are level, the top and bottom are clear, and they are as graceful as beauty picture scroll.
Zhou Wangzhi could see that he was a descendant of the Zhou family in Luochuan. When he was a child, his biggest wish was to build such a beautiful manor for his parents in the family, so that they could have a good life and take care of themselves. Year.
Now that his elixir has reached the middle level and his goal is no longer vague, the next step is to work hard.
The three of them came to the main hall under the guidance of the maid.
There are already more than twenty people in the hall, because behind each of the Hualan disciples, there is a young girl from the mansion serving him. There are other girls lighting lamps and blowing incense, but the main hall uses fifty or sixty sticks. The pillars were propped up, opening up a huge space. Even if hundreds of people gathered, it was not crowded at all, but very empty.
Zhou Xibai and the other three were asked to take their seats in front of the main hall. The location was quite important at first glance.
After all, compared to others, the three of them have achieved mid-level elixirs, and they hope to reach the Nascent Soul realm and become first-class real people in the future. As for the other disciples of low-grade golden elixirs, they will only be trapped in the elixir realm for the rest of their lives and will never be able to break through.
After everyone arrived, they exchanged a few words, then stopped and sat on their respective cloud couches, saying nothing, closing their eyes and resting.
They have speculations and curiosity about today's meeting, but they will not ask.
I don’t know how long ago, there was music outside. The sound stirred up the sky, and it was as shocking as the sound of bells ringing on an empty mountain. As soon as it started, it caused the various chimes hanging in the temple to ring from the outside inward.
As descendants of the Zhou family in Luochuan, Zhou Xibai and others knew the music and the rules. As soon as they heard it, they knew that this was a very formal trip for the master. They did not dare to sit down anymore, so they got up from the cloud couch, and then Together with the maids in the palace, they looked outside.
The music sounded for a while, then turned low, and they saw a young man striding in. He was wearing a star crown on his head, a robe of a true disciple of the Shinichi Sect, a jade pendant hanging from his waist, and his eyes were so quiet that they could not see the bottom.
As he entered, in the main hall, the originally static chimes rang again, and in the sound, a white tone wheel actually circled. Inside, the sharp energy was stimulated, and every time it turned, There is a chill that hits people's brows.
In the main hall, a group of new alchemy monks led by Zhou Xibai and others were selected. Listening to the voice, there was an autumn mood in front of them, an unstoppable sharpness, and a majesty that killed all directions. , instantly filled the entire hall, making the power of Dansha in their bodies seem to become quiet, hidden in the Danhai, making it difficult to move.
This is the power of a magical power, a magical power that only alchemy monks are qualified to practice, and it seems that they have been practicing it for a long time, and they can already use it to kill enemies in battle formations!
Zhou Xibai was even keenly aware that if he did not use the magic weapon, under the power of this magical power, he might be pierced by thousands of arrows and become like a hedgehog. Thinking of this, he couldn't help but change color slightly on his face.
"Flying Golden Emperor White Wheel?"
Zhou Xibai vaguely recognized the origin of this magical power, which originated from the "Spiritual Life Gold-falling Book", one of the five qi and four methods in the sect.
It is said that this magical power can be promoted through Taoism, but it is very difficult to practice, but once it is achieved, its killing power is astonishing.
Although the other disciples of Hualan in the palace could not recognize the origin of magical powers like Zhou Xibai, they also knew that it was impossible for Zhou Qing to develop such magical powers just after he was promoted to the realm of Hualan. It must be Taoism. promoted.
How does Taoism promote magical powers? Only by cultivating Taoism to an extremely deep level in the realm of Qi refining, and with the help of the powerful source of the golden elixir when condensing the elixir, can the Taoism be transformed into magical powers.
As we all know, only those with high-grade golden elixirs can do it.
They are all well-informed people. After Zhou Qing returned from searching for medicine to condense the elixir, they heard the news that Zhou Qing, a leader of the younger generation, was suspected of having condensed a high-grade golden elixir.
Now that I have seen it with my own eyes, it is indeed the case.
They all succeeded in condensing the elixir within ten years, and the difficulty of hedging the elixir is still fresh in their memory. The vast majority of them tried their best and worked hard in every possible way, but they could only manage to condense the elixir, and the elixir became a low-grade one. No trace of the middle-grade golden elixir can be seen.
What kind of astonishing accumulation, what kind of terrifying qualifications, what kind of enviable luck is required to achieve a top-grade elixir?
When they thought of this, everyone felt a sense of admiration and awe for Zhou Qing who entered the palace. They put away their distracting thoughts, held their breath and concentrated without saying a word.
For a moment, the only sounds left in the entire hall were the sound of bells and the sound of Zhou Qing's footsteps walking up to the high platform. The rest was silent.
Zhou Qing sat down on the high platform of the hall, looking down at everyone. He smiled and said, "Everyone, there is no need to be polite."
Zhou Xibai and others saluted again. , then each took his seat.
Zhou Qing gathered away his magical power, leaving only a piece of clear light above the top door, like a hanging orb, which cast a layer of coldness on the high platform. He said in a calm tone: "Most of the time, I am in charge of the sect. I don’t have much time in the clan, so I took advantage of this opportunity to meet everyone and get to know each other.”
After Zhou Qing finished speaking, seeing everyone listening attentively, he nodded slightly in his heart. By taking the lead and using magical powers to show off your strength, you are establishing your prestige in the shortest possible time.
After all, they rarely meet. If you want to lead people and let them do things, and if you can't do it with conviction, you must first let them have awe of power.
The thoughts in his mind were spinning, but the expression on his face remained unchanged. Zhou Qing continued to speak, saying: "After being promoted to Hualan, don't be happy yet. Whether it is in the clan or the sect, there are things waiting for you. "
Speaking of this, he paused, his tone became serious, and said: "You must be prepared, because things are not easy to do, and there will be dangers!" He thought of what Zhou Chen said. Judging from the actions of the door and the tone of this sixth uncle, the Alchemy Monk might be the main force in the first wave.
For these new Alchemy disciples in the main hall, it is both an opportunity and a challenge. No matter what happens, you have to be strong and prepared.
Everyone present seemed to be able to hear the stormy and thunderous meaning in the words, and their expressions could not help but become solemn.
In their view, Zhou Qing on the high platform is not only the leader of the younger generation of the Zhou family in Luochuan, but also a true disciple of the Zhenyi sect. He stands tall, sees far, and is well-informed. He warned like this , must not listen, dare not not listen.
"Okay." After Zhou Qing said a few more words, his eyes were clear, sweeping over everyone, and said: "Those who want to participate in this elixir meeting, stay. Others go back, Be prepared, you will be useful soon."
"Yes"
After hearing the words, the descendants of the Luochuan Zhou family responded. They saluted above and then walked out with various complicated emotions.
The meeting in the main hall just now was not long, but everyone felt that the trip was worthwhile. On the one hand, they met the leading figures of their generation, who were indeed extraordinary. On the other hand, they also know that there may be storms and they must be prepared.
After almost leaving, Zhou Qing opened his eyes, looked down, and found that there were only three people left in the hall, two men and one woman.
"Zhou Xibai, Zhou Lingling, Zhou Wangzhi."
Zhou Qing was not surprised, his eyes were quiet and could not see the bottom.
In an ordinary aristocratic family, no matter how high the level of elixir is, if the children are willing to participate, they can do so. For them, being able to participate in an alchemy meeting, make a show, and get a few comments from others is a bit of experience, which is of great benefit.
But top aristocratic families such as the Luochuan Zhou family take all aspects into consideration, and if they want to participate in the alchemy meeting, they must at least have a middle-grade alchemy.
The difference between what is an ordinary aristocratic family and what is a top aristocratic family is reflected in all aspects.
Zhou Qing narrowed his eyes slightly, looked at the three of them, and said, "I will lead the team of our Luochuan Zhou family about the Dan meeting. We will go together when the time comes."
See three People listened attentively, Zhou Qing spoke directly and neatly, saying: "At the alchemy gathering, not only major families will participate, but also real people from other sects will be invited to come, so we must perform well and not let others underestimate us. Luochuan Zhou ”
The more Zhou Xibai and the others listened, the more serious their expressions became. They had been growing up in the Luochuan Zhou family's clan since they were young. If nothing else, they maintained the family's reputation deep in their bones.
When it comes to the family's reputation, they will definitely go all out.
At the elixir meeting, the elixir power of the participants will be weighed. For new alchemy monks, the higher the level of the alchemy, the higher the power of the alchemy.
However, if a monk has talent and is willing to work hard and practice continuously, he can become familiar with the golden elixir and barely increase his elixir power.
Such an improvement is difficult, but the three of them have decided that before the elixir meeting has started, they will practice hard day and night, and they will be able to increase a little bit.
Above the sky, a flying palace with the strange texture of Qingxuan Sect is flying away. From time to time, meteors will fly through the sky, and the bright colors caused by the friction with the atmosphere will hit the glazed jade windows of the flying palace, making it colorful. One piece, like the bright fireworks rising outside.
Pei Yunxiu wore a bun and a small skirt with lotus leaves. She held her face in her hands and looked at the shooting stars outside, mumbling for a while.
I don’t know if I’m counting the speed of the meteors breaking through the sky, or making a wish on the meteors, but I’m pouting and mumbling something that I can’t hear clearly.
After a while, Pei Yunxiu stopped, then turned around, looked at a middle-aged Taoist who was drinking slowly with squinted eyes, and pouted: "Uncle Jiu, how long does it take to arrive? It’s a true one.”
“It’s fast, it’s fast”
The middle-aged Taoist ignored the cuteness at hand, made a casual remark, and continued drinking.
Seeing this, Pei Yunxiu stamped his feet, reached out, picked up the wine bottle on the jade table, and put it behind him.
“Oops.”
The wine bottle was snatched away. The middle-aged Taoist opened his eyes, glared at her, and deliberately said with a straight face: “Give me the wine bottle.”
"No." Scholar Pei Yun was not afraid of him. She made a face and said, "Uncle Jiu, you haven't answered my question yet."
The middle-aged Taoist had no choice but to estimate the distance, and then said: "We will arrive the day after tomorrow."
"Uncle Jiu." Pei Yunxiu had a restless temper, so she asked again: "Let's go to Zhenyi What does Zong’s Danhui do?”
“We were invited to go and have a look.”
The middle-aged Taoist looked very casual. He held his Taoist crown and held it against the door. There was a green cloud, with two clouds blooming above it. Inside, the fragrant and fragrant stars were stirring and falling, but silently.
The stars reflected in his eyes, which were deep and deep. Far from his superficial free and uninhibited appearance, it gave people a sense of calmness with pearls of wisdom in hand.
Scholar Pei Yun didn't believe it and asked more questions.
"There is indeed an invitation." The middle-aged Taoist said first, then he pondered for a while, organized his words, and said: "In addition, the Zhenyi Sect has been making frequent moves recently, with great momentum and attention. "
"Is there such a thing?" Pei Yunxiu opened his eyes wide and said with an innocent look: "Why didn't I know?"
"You only play with your flowers and plants. Flowers, flowers, grass, what else do you know?”
The middle-aged Taoist nodded his niece with his hand, but he knew in his heart that Zhenyi Sect’s action was from the upper level, and it was done by Dongzhenren, as fast as thunder. It hasn't caused a huge aftermath, and most people really don't know.
"There's more." The middle-aged Taoist continued to point at his niece and said: "I heard that little guy Shi Qilang said that he met two extremely outstanding peers of the Zhenyi Sect in Yanji, which was amazing. This time you Come to Zhenyi Sect and learn a lot, so that you can rely on your good qualifications to sit in a well and look at the sky."
