Chapter Twenty-Eight: Comparing Cultivation to the Truth (1)
At this time, Han Ling'er stopped laughing, and her eyes were slightly red.
Wuhan Daoist said: "It's been five days, but the senior brother has accepted you as an apprentice is considered right, you are all the same procrastination, like snails." ”
Lin Xi was stunned when he heard this, could it be that the time was not adjusted correctly? Okay, fortunately, he didn't miss the truth of Bixiu's theory, he put away the spacesuit, grabbed the back of his head and said, "I'm sorry, the time is wrong." ”
Wuluo Tianzun said: "It's best that you can come, thank you." Let's go back to the Turin Hills. ”
Unexpectedly, Wuluo Tianzun kept his promise so much, and kept guarding the gate of time and space waiting for Lin Xi to come back, Lin Xi secretly made up his mind to help him resolve the conspiracy of Henghuo and the two strange old men who rose up this time.
The Turin Sect's ten-year event, the Bixiu Theory, actually started today, and the same decent Soul Suppression Sect and the Retreat Sect will send representatives to Turin Mountain to participate, and on the way back to the mountain, Han Ling'er said to Lin Xi that if he doesn't come, the master, who is the sect leader, must go back to the mountain to preside over this event.
Lin Xi said in his heart Fortunately, it didn't take too long, and now this point may only be seven or eight o'clock in the morning, otherwise he would really have to wash and sleep.
Lin Xi asked Han Ling'er about the activity process of the real cultivation, judging from the experience of seeing the cultivation in the past, the competition should really be a competition such as a ring match, and those who win the last can get rewards, such as titles, such as equipment. And previously learned from Henghuo Tianzun's mouth that every master will send his most proud apprentice to participate, when Wuluo Tianzun was not there, this stinky old man made a good idea to let Lin Xi represent Wuluo Tianzun's apprentice, although Lin Xi made rapid progress, but stuck on the inner dan, if you talk about strength, any apprentice of Wuluo Tianzun should be stronger than him.
Han Ling'er said that the comparison of cultivation is divided into two parts, and now the cultivation is also divided into two kinds of cultivation, one is martial cultivation, that is, the method of cultivating the inner pill according to the "Heavenly Dao Sutra", this method can greatly improve the strength of the cultivator, so the victory or defeat is also determined by strength during the competition. The other is literary cultivation, which is mainly based on the study of a large number of documents such as the Tao Te Ching, so usually the scholars who practice the truth have very profound knowledge.
Why is it that only the Turin Sect holds a Discussion of the Truth? This is because the other two schools do not have literati and cultivators, and it is the Turin Church that has the largest collection of relevant literature.
However, nowadays, the general stream is still dominated by martial arts, because people believe that it is easier to become immortals by improving their strength, or at least, they have a greater sense of security.
And when Wuluo Tianzun was educating his apprentices, he hoped that the apprentices could advance both civilly and martically, which Lin Xi agreed, because splitting Xiuzhen into Wenxiu and Wuxiu was a mistake in itself, and a cultivator who only practiced martial arts could only be an immortal, and he could only be a heavenly soldier if he went up, right, and he couldn't miss his brain anywhere.
At the same time, it also proves that the cultivators of the Wuluo Tianzun department will participate in both martial arts and cultural cultivation competitions.
Lin Xi asked, "How many apprentices has Master accepted?"
Han Ling'er said: "Counting the junior brothers, you have fifteen, divided into three generations, the four senior brothers of the first generation have already accepted apprentices, so they can't participate, listen to the senior sisters, the previous sessions were the second generation of Senior Brother Du Feng on behalf of the master, he is amazing, Wen Xiu and Wu Xiu can take the first, the last is also the second, but when I entered the master's door, he was no longer in Turin Mountain, and he has been traveling the world for the past ten years." ”
Theoretically speaking, Du Feng should hurry up and come back to continue to compete, after all, Bi Xiu is really a very important competition in the cultivation world, as long as he is there, Wu Luo Tianzun will not lag behind Henghuo Tianzun too much in Bi Xiu Zhen, but there is also a disadvantage in being a powerful person, that is, it is easy to get the qualification to become a teacher, maybe Du Feng has already received a large number of apprentices in the past few years.
Lin Xi asked, "What is the state of Senior Brother Du Feng?"
Han Ling'er said: "Ten years ago was in the early stage of Biyi, right?"
It seems that the rule of Turin Mountain is that if you are above Piyi, you can accept apprentices? As far as the title is concerned, Yuan Ying and Biyi can claim to be real people, and they may be able to accept apprentices if they become real people, yes, Wang Renwei and their master Hengfeng Zhenren is an example.
Lin Xi said: "If Senior Brother Du Feng has already accepted apprentices, do we have other people who can be representatives?"
Han Ling'er smiled: "Of course, no, there is still senior sister and me, don't worry." ”
Senior Sister Ling'er's realm is in the late stage of the repentant vault, and it is no longer far away from the Yuan Infant level, but there is a world of difference between reaching the Yuan Infant level and reaching it one step shorter, the "Heavenly Dao Sutra" is written very clearly, the gap between the late stage of a realm and the early stage of the next realm is more than a thousand times, what is the concept?
Of course, for now, as long as you can defeat the representatives of Henghuo Tianzun and the rising Tianzun.
At this time, he heard Luo Tianzun say: "This year's competition will really not let Du Feng fight again, he has reached the early stage of Biyi, which is unfair to others." ”
Wuhan Taoist couldn't help but say: "You are still this brainless, is it possible that you want to lose?"
Han Ling'er said: "Senior aunt, don't worry, there is also a powerful senior sister among our third-generation disciples, her name is Liu Xinyue, the realm has reached the middle stage of the Yuan Infant, and we will definitely be nine out of ten with her in battle." ”
Liu Xinyue? Lin Xi seems to have an impression, isn't it the senior sister Xinyue who often shoots away "A Thousand Flowers" from Han Ling'er? It seems that this side plot can't be avoided.
It's strange to say, what's there to grab a book, isn't it possible for two people to read a copy? Of course, it is impossible for Han Ling'er not to think of this way, Lin Xi understands, every time Han Ling'er gets a copy of "A Thousand Flowers", she will be snatched away by Liu Xinyue? Isn't this a deliberate bully?
Wuluo Tianzun said: "You can't let Xinyue fight, although her realm is high, her mood is unstable, and she still needs to be tempered." ”
Lin Xi said that the competition was not just an opportunity to temper himself? Wuhan Daoist asked directly: "Shouldn't this kid be allowed to have a chance to temper?"
Lin Xi thought of another possibility, so he asked, "Is it really life-threatening to compare the cultivation theory?"
Wuluo Tianzun said: "You are very smart, although you are a competition and there is a magic circle on the field, but your fists and feet are always blind, and people who are in an unstable mood are more likely to be injured or even give away their lives, which has happened in the past dozens of competitions, and we should try to avoid it." ”
Wu Luo Tianzun refers to the unstable state of mind, in modern terms, it should be "bad mentality", it can be seen that people who bully the cute little junior sister when they have nothing to do on weekdays, how good can their mentality be? Of course, Wu Luo Tianzun's decision is also to protect Liu Xinyue, after all, they are all his apprentices.
Several dangerous peaks in Turin Mountain were already close at hand, and Wuluo Tianzun might have to preside over the affairs now, and he said to Han Ling'er: "Ling'er, let Zheng Tongtong get ready, and tell her to do what she can." Then he separated from the crowd and went to preside over the business.
Lin Xi and the three of them went to find Zheng Tongtong, she was the last of the second-generation disciples accepted by Wuluo Tianzun, Han Ling'er knew her name and had met a few times, but she was not familiar with her, listening to the senior sisters of the third generation, this Zheng Tongtong was very unkind, he only knew cultivation all day long, and he was extremely indifferent, so that everyone didn't know what realm she was, but since the master named her to play, it must not be too bad.
Lin Xi said in his heart that Zheng Tongtong should be the "Lu Xueqi" of this cultivation world, but I don't know where our "Mr. Zhang" is, and he may not have shown up yet. However, the Lingxian Academy did not allow male disciples to enter, so Lin Xi stopped outside to chat with the sweeping aunt, and by the way, he inquired about the details of the sweeping old man.
Aunt sweeping the floor hated men very much, especially the male disciples who dared to set foot in the Lingxian Academy, but she was quite polite to Lin Xi, and when she heard Lin Xi ask about the old man who swept the floor, she said: "That dead old man, I heard that he has been sweeping the ground in Turin Mountain for seven or eight hundred years, and he also teased me when Auntie first came, do you say hateful or hateful?"
Lin Xi said: "He can live for so long, and he proves that he has also practiced the cultivation of the true exercises, why doesn't he have an official name?"
"I don't know about this," Aunt Sweeping said, "Of course, you don't have an official name for your aunt, huh...... What do you think of Ruhua? In the future, I will call Ruhua Okay, Ruhua real person, very good, very good, hahaha......"
Like a flower...... Lin Xi hurriedly said, "Can we change our name?"
"Oh, the Shen of the sinking fish and the wild goose of the sinking fish and the wild goose?" The old face of the sweeping aunt instantly smiled into a flower: "Or you are a young man with vision, okay, in the future, the aunt will be called Shen Yan Zhenren, hahaha......"
Lin Xi clenched his fists and said, "I've seen Shen Yan Zhenren." ”
Shen Yan Zhenren smiled even more happily: "Hahaha, very good, very good, Auntie knows that you want to deal with that dead old man, you just have to inform me if there is something in the future, Auntie will definitely help!"
Lin Xi nodded slightly: "Thank you, Auntie." ”
Shen Yan Zhenren thought for a while and said: "The matter of the dead old man can be put aside for the time being, now is the grand event of the Turin Mountain, do you want to play?"
Lin Xi smiled bitterly: "I haven't formed a Neidan yet, and we are here to invite Senior Sister Tongtong to fight." ”
"Zheng Tongtong?" Shen Yan Zhenren couldn't help frowning when he heard this: "That little girl has a strange temper, she hates men more than your aunt and me, if the sect leader really wants her to fight, you'd better leave this place first." ”
Lin Xi said in his heart that this is probably the case with frost beauties, so he said to Shen Yan Zhenren: "Okay, then I'll go over first, and help me inform Senior Sister Ling'er later, thank you." ”
So Lin Xi flew back to the small courtyard of the accommodation with a broomstick, and when he arrived, the courtyard was empty, Wang Renwei and they may have gathered at the scene, I have to say that the apprentices of Hengfeng Zhenren have a very regular schedule and rest, and they all have benevolence, although this person's realm is not high in the Hengzi generation, but the educational ability is obviously very strong, if there is a chance, Lin Xi really wants to see it.
Not long after Lin Xi settled, a doorman rushed to the small courtyard in a hurry and asked Lin Xi to go to the Xugu Hall to meet the masters.
The Xugu Hall is the place where everyone had a party when Lin Xi first came to Turin Mountain, and outside the hall is a square for several miles, and it may be that the martial arts test is held here. Lin Xi followed the man and asked the man's name on the way.
The man smiled and said, "Senior Brother Hui Linxi, my name is Huo Youxian, and I am the fourth generation disciple of Wuzhen Tianzun. ”
Speaking of which, there are really a lot of people with the title of Tianzun, no wonder even if Wuluo Tianzun is not there, the group of people from the Dunhua Gate entrenched under the mountain do not dare to make a mistake, and even calm for more than two months, no wonder Wuluo Tianzun was too lazy to pay attention to it at that time.
Lin Xi asked, "Will the people from the Retreat Gate participate in the competition this time?"
Huo Youxian grinned and said, "Probably not, I didn't see it anyway." ”
Lin Xi didn't ask any more, the sun was rising at the moment, it might have reached ten o'clock, the sun was a little spicy, but there was still a thick layer of fog on the ground below, strange to say, the scope of this fog was almost equivalent to a small courtyard, but it didn't spread.
Lin Xi suddenly remembered something, isn't this location the Extreme Ice Spring? He hurriedly stepped forward and grabbed Huo Youxian and said, "Senior Brother Youxian, look, below." ”
Huo Youxian looked down in the direction he had to take, and his face couldn't help but change slightly: "The water of the Extreme Ice Spring shouldn't fog up, let's go down and take a look." ”
Before they could get closer, the two of them heard a "coo" sound coming from the fog, and it was not even an exaggeration to describe it as "bang, bang, bang".
When I looked closer, I found that all the water in the pool was boiling, and the dense fog around it was the water vapor coming out of it.
Huo Youxian said in a daze: "This can't be ......"
Lin Xi didn't panic too much, the Polar Ice Spring is equivalent to penetrating the cold air of the groundwater, and then added by the wild true qi of Turin Immortal Mountain, so it will be so cold that people should not enter, but we all know that in fact, the earth's crust is moving at any time, and it is very likely that a stream of magma will flow through this place due to the movement of the earth's crust, heating the groundwater, so the Polar Ice Spring will become an extremely hot spring, which is a normal phenomenon.
Of course, it would take a lot of time to explain these things to Senior Brother Youxian, and he would just tell the Turin Sect masters about this later, so he said, "Let's tell them about this as soon as possible." ”
Huo Youxian nodded, and continued to lead Lin Xi to the Void Valley Palace.
When they arrived, a group of uncles and old men were already waiting inside, and Lin Xi's master, Wuluo Tianzun, was sitting on the main seat.
As soon as I entered the door, I heard a loud shout: "You don't kneel down yet?"
Huo Youxian, who came with him, knelt down directly when he heard this loud shout, Lin Xi turned his head and looked, it was Henghuo Tianzun, okay, this old man must have made a small report.
Lin Xi turned his head to look at Wuluo Tianzun, and saw that Wuluo Tianzun nodded, Lin Xi knelt down in front of him, and he was the only one in this cultivation world who could make Lin Xi kneel willingly.
I only heard Wuluo Tianzun ask: "Lin Xi, have you imprisoned Yanxue, the apprentice of Senior Brother Henghuo?" ”
Lin Xi nodded.
That Henghuo Tianzun immediately scolded: "Little cub, don't let people out quickly!"
Lin Xi stood motionless under the gaze of all the old men.
Wuluo Tianzun said, "Let him out." ”
Lin Xi was slightly stunned, he suddenly realized a problem, if he released Yan Xue now, wouldn't it be even more for the old man Henghuo to find him practicing evil methods?
But now that the master's order is difficult to disobey, Lin Xi's heart turned sharply, and he couldn't find a way not to let go of Yan Xue for a while.
"Let him out!" Wuluo Tianzun said again, his voice turning sharp.
