Chapter 111: Practice in Peace in the Midst of Wind and Rain
Woo~
In the shadow under the eaves, the group of light and shadow turned into a human shape, and the voice was erratic. Only Yan Chunyang could hear:
"Five days ago, the prince accompanied his majesty on the 'Escape Sky Boat', presumably to explore the Nine Layers of Gangfengtian again, looking for the Bafang Temple...
“Bafang Temple.”
Yan Chunyang frowned slightly: "Does the old man have any instructions?"
"The prince said that everything has been arranged, all he needs to do is to do his best and win the first place in martial arts."
The figure in the shadow said.
"The number one in martial arts has no setbacks. The Five Great Dao Sect does not have many characters in this generation. Only Long Xinglie, Shi Qingyi, and Pei Xingkong can still fight, but they are not their intended opponents."
Yan Chunyang turned the string of beads and didn't take it seriously: "I am just worried that it is related to the dragon and tiger health furnace. The old dragon may not be willing to give in, right?"
He trusts his master, but the Dragon Tiger Health Furnace is the foundation of the Dragon Tiger Temple. Even if it is just to borrow, it is extremely difficult.
If one of them is bad, the gods will get angry...
"Wouldn't it be better if he didn't behave himself?"
The figure in the shadow took a few steps, somewhat worried: "Long Xinglie and others have the support of Dao Zong. Are you really sure that the Marquis has it? This matter concerns the prince's 'He Xuan Bing'. The Marquis must not be careless."
"I won't say anything about winning without having fought, but...
Yan Chunyang smiled slightly, with a hint of freedom and pride between his brows:
"Seven days ago, I dreamed of entering the Master's 'Devil-Subduing God Realm' on the ship. We were fighting at the same level. I was able to fight with the Master to the point of being within a hundred moves."
Hearing these words, Ying Xin's brows in the shadows relaxed, and turned into a ray of light and disappeared into the string of beads in his hand:
"That being the case, it's natural to look forward to it."
Yan Chunyang gently turned the string of beads. There were a total of 108 beads in the string on his wrist. If he looked closely, it seemed that there were various patterns covering it.
With the gentle rotation, rays of light of different colors enveloped him like water, nourishing his spirit and body.
"Bafang Temple..."
In the gentle breeze, Yan Chunyang closed his eyes slightly:
"There are still nearly two years, which is already a long time."
mxx.xm
After going down the mountain and into the city, Li Yuan saw ten times more masters than in the past few years combined.
The light of various weapons intertwined into a sea, making him somewhat overwhelmed.
Many of them made him jealous. Along the way, he had some thoughts, looking at this and that.
"These are weapons that are above the level of famous weapons."
In front of the gate of Longhu Mountain, Li Yuan used a lot of perseverance to stop himself from looking around. He had never seen such a scene with high-quality weapons everywhere.
"There are still few magic soldiers."
There were crowds of people in front of the mountain gate, including many powerful forces and even masters from other Taoist sects, but there were no magic soldiers.
The [Wind and Thunder Sword (Level 6)] carried by the young swordsman who caused the white tiger to appear was only a quasi-magical weapon.
In comparison, the disciple of King Zhenwu was really extravagant. Most masters did not have two divine weapons, let alone an eighth-level divine armor.
"There are still nearly two years left for the various martial arts exercises. I'm afraid that as time goes by, there will be more and more masters... I am afraid that all the masters of the Five Dao Sects will be present at this kind of grand event...
Li Yuan's thoughts swirled in his mind.
He watched the excitement for a while. A large number of young masters shuttled under the mountain gate, trying to elicit strange phenomena, but except for Biao Jiu, no such masters appeared again.
After a while, Li Yuan turned around and went back to the restaurant.
Shi Yulou, Xin Wenhua and others also returned one after another, but Long Xinglie went to receive Pei Jiu. Although the relationship between the sects was not good, they were both Taoist sects, so they should have the proper etiquette.
After this interruption, everyone had nothing to talk about. Xin Wenhua was in a bad mood and left after a while. Soon, only Shi Yushu and Li Yuan were left in the box.
The two of them didn't waste any time and ate up the food on the table. Then they went back to the mountain. Li Yuan used 10,000 taels of gold to buy 160 Nuqing eggs. This was a friendly price. folded.
Li Yuan felt a little bit pained. He found that the further away from what most people needed, the more exorbitantly high the price became.
The reason is that those who can afford these things are worth tens of millions.
"too expensive."
After saying goodbye to his teacher Yushu, Li Yuan still felt a little sore on the way back to the mountain. He wanted to use the 'Mysterious Whale Realm' more and more.
Not to mention anything else, you can raise chickens, ducks and more with all kinds of spiritual rice.
"Anyone who uses weapons without permission in Hengshan City will die, and his sect will be expelled from the city and fined ten thousand taels of gold!"
There are elite soldiers patrolling the streets, and their voices are deep and powerful and can be heard in several places.
When there are more people, it is easy to cause chaos. People from all over the world gather together, many of whom have enmity with each other, and there are naturally more fights and killings.
More than 20,000 elite local soldiers of the Dragon and Tiger Armies were dispersed to various urban areas, patrolling day and night to maintain order.
In several urban areas that Li Yuan walked through, there were several very high flagpoles, hanging the corpses of the troublemakers. They were rough and bloody, but effective.
Otherwise, it will not be able to deter many people who are illiterate and do not know Chinese.
boom!
When passing by a certain urban area, Li Yuan heard a loud bang, and a figure jumped out from a house in the distance.
The man had a strong physique. He could soar more than two feet in one step. He could cross half of the street with just one step. It was obvious that he was able to form easily.
"Go away!"
The man glared and shouted, charging forward. Li Yuan's heart moved, but before he could make a move, a patrolling team of dragon and tiger soldiers rushed up to kill him.
Bending over, his blood burst out. Although he was wearing heavy armor, his speed was faster than that man.
Three people in a group, each holding a sword, jumped up like one person. With a scream, the man full of banditry had his hands cut off and his head cut off.
One of the soldiers shook his wrist, and the head was already inserted ten feet away. The protruding iron spikes on the flagpole were dripping with blood, which was very creepy.
"This man disobeyed orders and used weapons without authorization. Kill him!"
Several patrolling soldiers spoke loudly to stabilize the pedestrians on the long street, and then split into two teams, one patrolling and the other looking for his sect's power.
"Capable and courageous, proficient in combined attack, horizontal training and light skills are both advisable."
Li Yuan, who witnessed the whole process, nodded in his heart.
In the first year since he joined the sect, he only occasionally saw soldiers of the Dragon and Tiger Army. It was because the inner disciples were not qualified to enter and leave the Dragon and Tiger Army’s garrison at will.
But from what he saw, the Dragon and Tiger Army was worthy of its reputation as a strong army. Whether it was personal bravery or armor, it was better than the Divine Guard Army.
The number was also far greater.
"Heavy armor is really a good thing."
Li Yuan had a good eye. After all, the bandit was a shape-changing warrior. His counterattack was also very fierce, but he did not break the armor of the three Dragon and Tiger soldiers.
The Dragon and Tiger Temple did not have a divine craftsman, but the assembly line-like forging method allowed the popularization of famous weapons and sharp blade-level armor.
He had inquired about the four types of armor in the Dragon and Tiger Army. At the very least, it was also a sharp blade-level armor.
"To combine a divine weapon-level armor, at least 730 first-level armors are needed. Calculated at 300 taels of silver per piece, this is only more than 200,000 taels of silver. It is really not expensive."
Li Yuan muttered in his heart.
If there is enough incense to combine the soldiers with the combined furnace, it is more cost-effective than making them by yourself, at least you don't need to search for those rare treasures.
But incense is hard to find, such as dragon and tiger standard heavy armor, bows and meals, and it is impossible for him to make them in a big way. Not to mention the court, the sect will not allow it.
"Other problems can be solved, mainly incense."
Li Yuan's heart was in turmoil.
He couldn't help but look at the temple next to him. The temples in Hengshan City are very prosperous, and there are many third- and fourth-level incense, but he has not seen higher ones yet.
"It should be that the Dao Ya uniformly harvested and stored somewhere..."
Li Yuan remembered the information he heard earlier through listening. The mysterious group of people should probably take action after the new year, right?
Li Daoye thought about robbing the robbing, but...
"There are too many masters in the city now."
His eyes swept across the surrounding patches of weapon light, and Li Yuan thought that he had to get a few pairs of high-level boots first.
Having seen the speed of the old dragon head, he felt somewhat insecure.
If he couldn't hold on, he should at least be able to outrun him, right?
"How many pairs of seventh-level boots can outrun a grandmaster?"
Li Yuan's mind was wandering, and he had returned to the main peak of Longmen.
He first went to pay his respects to the old dragon head, and found that the temple door was closed, so he took the angry egg back to the opposite house and made fried rice.
The spiritual egg and spiritual rice tasted great and were very effective.
After eating a large pot of rice, Li Yuan felt warm all over, and took advantage of the situation to do the standing meditation for more than an hour. After nightfall, he returned to the house and took out the "Qi-enhancing Pill".
"Normally, twelve meridians are already very many, but the sword master in the bronze tower realm has more than twelve. When he moves, the sword energy is all over the sky. I'm afraid there are more than twenty-four."
Sitting cross-legged in meditation, Li Yuan thought in his heart.
The library of the Dragon and Tiger Temple is all-encompassing. This year, his martial arts foundation has also deepened a lot, and he is quite familiar with each realm.
The superior secret to Tongmai is six Qi channels, and the unique skills are ten to twelve. He has not learned any magic skills, but he can get a glimpse of it through the old dragon head's "Dragon-Elephant Confluence".
This shape-changing combination requires at least eighteen Qi channels to burst out the strongest power.
"Eighteen, almost enough to support the Black Whale Diagram, but...
Li Yuan closed his eyes, in the spiritual land, visualized his spirit emitting a bright light. Under the nourishment of the Black Whale's Qi, his spiritual power became more and more full and pure.
"Legend has it that the God Worshipping Orthodoxy is divided into thirteen branches, all named after gods, namely the God Foot Sutra, the God Palm Sutra, the God Eye Sutra, the God Ear Sutra, the God Organ Sutra...
"Thirteen branches may not be the limit of the God Worshipping Method, if there are 'gods' or 'acupoints' in all organs."
"'The ultimate truth is not complicated, and there are gods in all the joints of the Niwan. If there are really hundreds of gods, then the qi channels I condense must at least cover all the internal organs, leaving room for the 'acupoints.'"
.....
For martial arts, Master Li never blindly believes in anyone. He believes in practice and seeks verification from many sources.
For now, he believes.
Because he really lit up two 'acupoints' on the soles of his feet through the Shenzu Sutra, including the Dantian, his total internal energy should be at least twice that of people who have also forged twelve meridians.
This is still the acupoints being nurtured. He estimated that if the Shenzu Sutra is cultivated to the seventh level, his total internal energy will be more than twice that of the same level.
"If there really is a hundred gods, then my internal energy..."
Just thinking about it, Li Yuan's heart was a little throbbing. Whether it was as he thought or not, he wanted to forge as many meridians as possible to leave enough room.
"This bottle of Qi-enhancing pills should be enough."
After blowing out the oil lamp with a long breath, Li Yuan concentrated his energy and began to move the inner energy, wandering among the energy meridians, exploring the unknown places in the body bit by bit.
At the same time, visualize the spirit self standing up in the place of spiritual light, performing various postures, and changing the shape of the body. Sometimes it turns into a spiritual ape, sometimes it turns into an ancient elephant, and sometimes it turns into a mosquito dragon.
After a long time, the light and shadow changed, and the 'Drawing of the Black Whale in the Split Sea' began to be drawn from scratch.
....
"call!"
In the small temple, the shining white light gradually dimmed.
Long Xixiang, who looked tired, opened his eyes and saw Jin Shengwu with his hair and beard dancing wildly and a look of shock and anger on his face.
"How many knives?"
Long Xixiang asked.
"One hundred and sixty knives."
Jin Shengwu's chest rose and fell, feeling a little annoyed: "The sword intent left by Wan Zhuliu seems to be stronger?"
"Eternal-level talent, and with two heavenly fortune mystical weapons at my side, it will definitely be stronger than what it was more than forty years ago."
Long Xixiang is somewhat unexpected:
"Can you resist a hundred and sixty cuts?"
"There is still a long way to go. I have to resist at least three hundred swords before I can be confident that I will die with him. I am still short of more than a hundred swords..."
Jin Shengwu frowned. This was already his best record in more than thirty battles.
"Come again!"
Jin Shengwu gritted his teeth.
Long Xixiang didn't refuse. With this supreme master here, he could become more familiar with Wan Zhuliu's sword skills and gain more chances of winning.
Buzz~
The divine light spread, and Long Xixiang closed his eyes.
"Three hundred dollars...
m*nxg.
A visit to Long Xixiang's small temple lasted more than ten days. The New Year was over, and Li Yuan didn't see the old dragon head, so he could only go to Dou Yue and Long Xinglie if he wanted to know the details of Tongmai.
As the various martial arts performances are approaching, Longhu Temple is lively and busy. The venue that can accommodate so many people from all walks of life is also a big project.
Phew~
In the small courtyard, the wind roared like a tiger roaring.
Li Yuan pushed the pile skill slowly, his movements were gentle and slow, and with every move, the airflow in the entire courtyard was stirred by him, moving around his body like a living creature.
The muscles and bones all over his body were shaking violently. The big muscles under his skin were sometimes tense and sometimes relaxed. Every sound he made seemed to shake the whole courtyard.
"哢哓!"
After a long time, Li Yuan opened his eyes. He tightened his fingers and then loosened them. His arms swung like a snake, as if they were boneless. When they tightened, they made a loud noise, and the airflow throughout the courtyard was blown away.
"Eight changes in the form of a snake, Dzogchen is complete."
After loosening his pores, the strong sweat filled the small courtyard. Li Yuan shook his sleeves to blow it away, his eyes bright.
Time is like water, passing by with a snap of your fingers.
More than 20 days have passed, and the three superior skills of tiger-shaped communication with gods, Yuan python swallowing stars, and snake-shaped eight transformations have been pushed to the Great Perfection, and the shape of the thunder dragon has been changed to add a bit more power.
"All it takes is the Dragon-Tiger Huntian Hammer, and all I need is the Hundred Forms!"
Li Yuan closed his eyes slightly. After the six pile skills were completed, the unique level pile skill 'Dragon and Snake Nine Transformations' contained in it naturally emerged.
"The Nine Transformations of Dragon and Snake, this pile skill is much more complicated than Long Chan and Huntian pile."
After sensing it for a while, when he opened his eyes again, the sky was already dark. Li Yuan was in a good mood. He cooked a large pot of rice and cracked a few Nu Qing eggs to keep himself busy.
"call!"
In the night, Li Yuan raised the hammer and moved gently and silently. After a moment, he slowly stopped.
"In half a month at most, the Dragon-Tiger Huntian Hammer will be able to cultivate to the seventh level... The Hundred Forms are almost here!"
Muttering in his heart, Li Yuan took a deep breath, suppressed his throbbing, washed himself a little, then went back to the room to meditate, and continued to deduce the picture of the mysterious whale that splits the sea.
More than twenty days later, seven Qi-increasing pills were used, and the Qi meridians in his body increased from twelve to twenty-six, almost covering his whole body.
Unfortunately, without the follow-up cultivation method of worshiping gods, he has not yet found the "god" in other organs.
"You can find the acupuncture points slowly. It is better to forge the Qi veins first and break through the refining of the internal organs... The limit of the Qi pulses should be thirty-six?"
With thoughts, Li Yuan calmed down.
Buzz~
In the place of spiritual light, visualize that the spiritual self has disappeared.
Instead, there is a picture of a mysterious whale that splits the sea, and the scene in it has gradually become like life.
Woo~
Suddenly, Li Yuan noticed a familiar aura fluctuation.
"coming?"
Li Yuan's thoughts changed, and when he opened his eyes again, he saw the bronze tower standing in front of him.
