Chapter 148 [Corpse Demon Fruit] Opportunity with Dao Ying
Shen Lian’s method was too simple and crude, and everyone couldn’t recover for a while.
“Don’t get me wrong, I can be considered a Jinwu Guard.”
Shen Lian has already refined the Wanhu Token. It stands to reason that as long as Ma Wanhu does not take it back, he can indeed be regarded as a supernumerary member of the Jinwu Guard. personnel.
Little did he know that the Wanhu Token had a nickname in the imperial court, called [Alchemy Order].
A very small number of Jinwu guards who are willing to retain their status in the imperial court after becoming descendants of the Xian family can get the treatment of ten thousand households.
Of course, there were only a few alchemists who "condescended" to the imperial court.
Even looking at the hundred years of the Tang Dynasty, perhaps Shen Lian was the only one.
After all, the alchemists have no regard for the resources of the imperial court. Those secret techniques and great medicines are just defective products that have been eliminated from the cave.
Yuan Chaozhong did not think about it carefully. Usually the demonic characteristics of alchemists are more obvious.
Shen Lian's specialness is not obvious, and the more he looks at him, the more he looks like a warrior.
Shen Lian put away the corpse of the century-old monster and continued to drink some medicinal wine, "Let's go, the blood is rich and it will easily attract the covetousness of more monsters."
"Okay, I'm a humble man. Yuan Chaozhong, where were you originally stationed? "
"Shen Lian, I came here for the Nujiang case."
Yuan Chaozhong wiped the sweat from his forehead. In my impression, there are two Qianhu in the Yanshan area. One Qianhu practices the Xiong Zhen Sutra and is good at the physical body.
But... no matter how you look at it, Shen Lian doesn't look like Xiong Zijing with five major and three major powers.
Yuan Chaozhong looked at Shen Lian subconsciously, and the fear in his heart became more and more intense.
Although Shen Lian is dressed like a gangster, the items he carries are by no means ordinary.
The saber and scabbard are obviously made of white bones, as is the drinking gourd, which seems to be made of two skulls connected together.
Drink the wine in your head? Who is this person?
"Ah~ what's the Nu River? The tide is very noisy, not as good as Yanliang Town."
Myna shouted dissatisfied.
Yuan Chaozhong originally thought that the myna was just an ordinary crow, but when the monster attacked before, the crow did not panic at all, and it was obviously not simple.
"What are they?"
"Back to Master Shen, the Inspiration Sutra needs to be initiated with the help of the rising tide of the Nu River."
Yuan Chaozhong added: "After we have finished handling the reserve matters, we will assist the newly arrived Wanhu to investigate the Nujiang case."
"Yes."
Shen Lian was slightly startled. Then he realized that the ten thousand households Yuan Chaozhong was talking about might be him.
"Let me see if there is a backup copy of the Inspiration Sutra."
Yuan Chaozhong did not dare to neglect and quickly took out the internal energy carved on the surface of the fish skin.
Shen Lian motioned for them to pack up the carriage and read through the spiritual sutra with great interest.
[The
“The Inspiration King’s true form is the goldfish raised by Guanyin Bodhisattva. His strength in the water can rival Zhu Bajie and Sha Seng. Three hours. "
Shen Lian is currently short of points, and the three professions are already at the fourth level, and his experience progress has almost stagnated, so he secretly considers the fourth profession.
He did not rush to make a decision and put his inspiration into the core of the fruit.
Ten households asked enthusiastically: "Master Shen, I guess there is still a day's journey, why not rest in the carriage for a while."
The carriages are filled with resources needed to get started in the reserve army, which shows that the imperial court is very concerned about inspiration. The King’s Cave Tongtian River has been explored for many years.
“No need.”
Shen Lian swept over the horses.
Although he looks like he is walking on flat ground, he is actually dragging his body with skillful energy.
Otherwise, just fifty drops of water from the Milky Way in the middle Dantian would be enough for your feet to sink into the soil.
Not long after, the team was back on the road.
Shen Lian asked Yuan Chaozhong about the Nujiang case in a circumstantial manner. The latter was mainly stationed in Dechang Town, a hundred miles away. He had not been to Nujiang Town for two years and did not know much information.
Yuan Chaozhong only knew that during the New Year, a demonic wind would sweep through Nujiang Town.
The demonic wind disappeared without a trace, and quietly swept away twenty or thirty children. It usually lasted for five or six days and then ended, with no more than a hundred people before and after.
People call the New Year the Dragon King Festival, and believe that the boys and girls taken away will enjoy blessings in the Dragon Palace.
May the weather be smooth in the coming year.
Yuan Chaozhong said hesitantly: "If we investigate this matter, we will actually get resistance from the local Jinwu Guards. We must be careful."
In the eyes of the people, if they do not want to participate in the Dragon King Festival, , just leaving the town temporarily before the New Year, Jiang Dragon King will not chase him out of Nujiang Town.
Shen Lian frowned slightly.
Since receiving Li Shun's message, he has had intermittent contact with the two. Fortunately, Wanhu Token can detect that the two are in peace.
It seems that the situation in Nujiang Town is indeed more complicated.
“There are no rules for the demon wind to plunder people?”
“Master Shen, I heard that most of the boys and girls blown away by the Dragon King are from outside households, or one of their parents is a outside household.”
< br>“There is also the distance between closeness and distance, which is interesting.”
Shen Lian narrowed his eyes. Even before he arrived at Nujiang Town, there were already strange things everywhere, especially those monsters with monk-like faces.
"Understanding the flesh of Renren Tang Monk, maybe we can uncover the tip of the iceberg of this world."
Seeing Shen Lian deep in thought, Yuan Chaozhong did not dare to disturb him.
The rest of the journey will be uneventful.
Occasionally they can detect traces of monsters, but the deterrent of the magic talisman is that most monsters take the initiative to avoid the convoy.
As we approached Nujiang Town, a town with a population of 20,000 to 30,000 people came into view.
Nujiang Town is backed by mountains. Even the sun at noon can hardly reach it, and the streets and alleys seem to be shrouded in damp air.
From far away, you can smell the unspeakable stench.
"Master Shen, you..." Yuan Chaozhong just wanted to remind Shen Lian, but found that the latter's eyes were closed tightly, as if he was practicing, and he just followed the carriage instinctively.
"Master Shen is really amazing. No wonder he has already reached the sixth realm of Yuan Dan at such a young age."
"In the future, there may be the possibility of being promoted to the seventh realm of Dao Ying."
"Uh."< br>
Yuan Chaozhong couldn't help but groaned, noticing that Shen Lian had a mysterious aura emanating from his body, and suddenly felt an inexplicable palpitation in his heart.
The feeling was fleeting, but it made him more in awe of Shen Lian.
There was helplessness in Shen Lian's eyes, and the strength poured into the middle Dantian like a swallow returning to its nest. He could see that the volume of the Yunling inner elixir increased sharply.
“Finally broke through the bottleneck and came to the last stage of Yuan Dan.”
[Realm: Yuan Dan (Broken Dan)]
The Broken Dan stage, as the name suggests, represents The sixth realm of Yuan Dan is about to be promoted to the seventh realm of Dao Ying, and the monks will take this opportunity to try [breaking the pill to become a baby].
The inner alchemy technique of ancient Taoism is also to break the elixir to form a baby. It stands to reason that as long as Shen Lian reaches the elixir breaking stage, the inner elixir will naturally develop cracks.
The next step is to break open the inner elixir through hard work.
However, Yun Ling's inner elixir is still flawless, and the eye in the center is slightly dull, showing no signs of reaching the perfection of the Yuan elixir realm.
Shen Lian has already seen the inner strength of the seventh realm of Tao Ying through Ma Wanhu's relationship, and Jin Wuwei's Breaking the Pill to Become a Baby is also of no reference.
Jinwuwei promoted the demon's physique to be reborn, and then denied the birth of Tao Ying.
“It seems that we can only place our hope on the [Corpse Demon Fruit].”
The Corpse Demon Fruit is conceived from a ray of true soul of Madam White Bone. It takes half a year to mature. Its function is similar to the Canopy Fruit of Gao Laozhuang.
[Corpse Demon Fruit]
[Breathed from the banyan tree, the pulp nourishes the soul; the core contains the complete secret of corpse removal. You can understand the method by taking it. 】
The secret art of corpse removal is a secret art of escape that abandons the body, and is not suitable for Shen Lian at all.
Incorporating the horizontal knife style is equally nondescript.
On the contrary, Zifu's weapon quenching method, which focuses on the soul and consciousness, is quite suitable.
“The Zifu quenching weapon method to synthesize the secret technique of corpse analysis will probably lead to a state of enlightenment, which should be able to explore the way forward to the seventh realm of Dao Ying.”
Shen Lian is worried that it is not suitable to be in the wilderness. I have been in seclusion and have never taken the corpse demon fruit.
The last pill fruit is somewhat special.
【Danlu Fruit】
[Greed from a banyan tree, buried deep in the ground and irrigated with blood-refined water for three days, it can grow a tree stump with the function of incubating objects. Dig out the tree stump completely and turn it into a pill furnace fruit again after half a day. 】
"Hey, although you can't actively breed the pill fruit, it's better than nothing."
The pill furnace fruit should be independently bred by the banyan tree after it reaches the fourth level, and it only takes three days to grow. You must find a secluded place to plant.
Shen Lian stabilized his cultivation and the carriage entered Nujiang Town unimpeded.
The customs in Nujiang Town are obviously different from those in the Yanshan area. There is a habit of inlaying fish scales into the doors and courtyards, and the windows are even made of fish skin.
People were coming and going on the street, and strangers kept looking at them.
"Yuan Chaozhong, do you feel something is wrong?"
"Me?"
Yuan Chaozhong glanced at his consciousness, and then his pupils shrank.
"Master Shen, when I came here two years ago, they... were not like this."
Yuan Chaozhong shuddered.
He raised his eyes and saw that the faces of the people in Nujiang Town had a look of happiness, and all of them, men, women, old and young, looked somewhat like monsters.
It’s incredible that tens of thousands of people share the same face.
Shen Lian had heard about it, but he still felt horrified. No wonder Ma Wanhu emphasized that the situation in Nujiang Town continued to deteriorate.
“Whether the anthropomorphism comes from Tang Seng or Chen Guangrui, there is definitely a big problem in Nujiang!”
Shen Lian looked at the lonely and dilapidated temple by the river and no one cared about it.
"Li Shun investigated the temple and found that the abbot named Xuanzang died six months ago, leaving the temple completely in ruins."
Shen Lian's spiritual thoughts communicated with Wan Zang in his arms. With the household token, Li Shun is in the Yamen.
"Yuan Chaozhong, even you don't know the situation in Nujiang Town. It seems that the thousands of households guarded there are very problematic."
Yuan Chaozhong was extremely uneasy and responded: "Shen Sir, we should contact Wanhu in charge of Nujiang Town immediately.”
"Haha."
"I'm afraid the people have informed the Yamen as soon as we entered the city."
Shen Lian said with a smile: "Look at them, they seem to be staring at monsters."
Thousands of people gathered around him, their faces expressionless. There was no demonic aura in their bodies, and there were no traces of secret techniques.
It is simply not welcome, as if the arrival of Shen Lian and others has affected their lives.
"What are the names of the thousands of households here?"
"Wang Baoping is an inspiration monk in the seventh realm of Dao Ying. He once almost worshiped the Tongtian River, and his strength is terrifying and unpredictable."
Yuan Chaozhong Taking out the Telepathy Talisman, "I will contact Wanhu immediately, Master Shen. Let's try not to conflict with Wang Baoping..."
Kakaka.
Shen Lian's bones collided with each other, and his body size reached just over two meters.
"Where did the ten thousand households come from? Master Ma Sanma has been in seclusion for a long time after his body and soul were severely injured. He entrusted me to take charge of Nujiang Town."
"My rules are very simple."
"If you don't agree, just do it. Kill!”
