Chapter 12: The Five Spiritual Hidden Roots
"Ahem, this Shouyi junior brother, what the two elders said is right, Jiang Li can't cultivate after all, and staying here won't do her much good in the future. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info" Xiao Lingfang said slowly, and then hurriedly continued: "However, after all, this child is what you watched grow up, and what should happen depends on your own will." ”
Xiao Lingfang actually hoped in her selfish heart that Du Lingxiao would not continue to raise Jiang Li, help her find a good family in the world, and ensure that she would not have to worry about food and clothing in the future, which would be the end of benevolence and righteousness. As a disciple of Qingyun Sect, Du Lingxiao's first task is to cultivate, cultivate, and cultivate. In the past few years, he can't wait to run to Su Xiaofeng all the time and ask him for his life. Especially when he heard that the Ancient Sword Sect had added a new Yuanying Monk this year, that was sad, and the head of the sect was bitter.
Jiang Li clenched her small hands and looked at Du Lingxiao expectantly, for her, whether she had a spiritual root or not, there was actually nothing to care about. The key is the attitude of the master, which is the most important thing. This is the same reason that many children are attached to their parents, it doesn't matter if they don't succeed, what matters is that their parents don't give up on themselves.
Du Lingxiao asked Jiang Li to come over to his side, touched her little head, and smiled slightly. This smile was so warm, it not only relieved Jiang Li's nervousness, but also made her laugh involuntarily.
"Ah Li is my apprentice, and this will never change." Du Lingxiao's voice was not hurried, like a spring breeze, which made people involuntarily relax and be quiet.
"Of course, one day is a teacher, and one life is a father." Xiao Ling Fang Dao, this is an unchangeable iron law in the cultivation realm.
"No, how can a person who has no spiritual roots worship a monk as a teacher." Elder Zhigui's voice is like a bell, and he is full of confidence.
Jiang Li's heart tightened, and the little hand that grabbed Du Lingxiao's clothes clenched a little tighter.
"It seems that Elder Zhigui was also born in the world." Liu Meng laughed.
Elder Zhigui was vigilant: "So what? ”
"It's not like that, I just think that you don't even recognize your parents in order to cultivate immortals, which is admirable." Han Yueyan said with a smile.
Monks cultivate the truth in order to pursue the great road for themselves, and on this road, too much family affection will only become a fetter for them to strive upward. Therefore, once the monks embark on the path of cultivating immortals, they rarely return to the world unless necessary. But this does not mean that the six relatives are cut off, and the father and mother do not recognize it. If someone really refuses to recognize their parents for the sake of cultivating immortals, this person will also be spurned by the monks.
"Presumptuous!" Elder Zhigui was provoked by Han Yueyan again and again, and the remaining patience was finally exhausted. With an angry roar, he used the "Howling Sea Sonic Wave" technique that he had practiced for many years, and suddenly the entire hall was shaken. Almost at the same time, a layer of enchantment lit up on Fu Daojun and Ye Haojiang, blocking this sudden attack in the direction they were in.
"Poof!"
"Poof!"
Luo Jinxiu and Kong Yan spit out two mouthfuls of blood at the same time, and their faces were pale, as if they had received a huge blow.
"Zhigui, what do you mean by this?" Xiyun Zhenren's cultivation was not as good as Fu Zhen Daojun and Ye Haojiang, and he only had time to protect himself, but when he saw that his lover was injured, he changed color.
When Zhigui sent his disciples to find Luo Jinxiu to testify, it happened that Xiyun Zhenren was lecturing. Thinking of Zhigui Zhenren's temperament, Xiyun Zhenren was afraid that his lover would suffer, so he followed. Unexpectedly, this Zhigui Lao'er cultivated a higher level than her, and still didn't have time to protect Luo Jinxiu.
"He didn't mean it, he was just careless, Senior Sister Xiyun, the old man apologized to you on his behalf, this is the Gyokuro Pill, which can heal injuries and stabilize the aura, I hope to help the disciples." As he spoke, he handed Xiyun Zhenren a small white jade bottle, and by the way, gave one to Kong Yan, who was also injured.
"Hmph." Xiyun Zhenren snorted coldly, unwillingly flicked his sleeves and took the jade bottle, and in front of him, poured out a pill for Luo Jinxiu to eat.
This Feiyi Elder didn't know how much debt he owed to Elder Zhigui in his previous life, so he could be so hardworking and resentful in this life, and he did his best to help him clean up the mess.
Fu Zhen Daojun's eyes were half-open and half-closed, as if he was awake but not awake, and his speech was a little fluttering: "Zhigui, this seat knows that you are dedicated to the good of the sect, but after all, this is Shouyi's own business, and it is not good to ask too much." ”
He was pulled over by Jiang Luo in the morning, originally wanting him to help see if Jiang Li really didn't have a spiritual root, but he didn't expect to meet the elders and heads of the Deacon Hall, let alone that they also came for this matter. And he still has an aggressive attitude, and he wants Jiang Li to leave.
Alas, he is old, and he doesn't think about anything else, just thinking that it is not easy for the only inheritance disciple now, and it is not easy to have a friend who has no guesses. Thinking that he has lived in the world for more than a thousand years, those partners who have studied and played together since childhood have almost all fallen. It doesn't matter if you have a spiritual root or not, the important thing is to be in a good mood so that everything can be good.
Fu Zhen Daojun, as the only Yuanying-level alchemist in Qingyun Sect, still has a lot of weight in speaking in Qingyun Sect. Elder Zhigui was unconvinced, but he didn't dare to make a mistake. He also knew that he had been reckless just now and hurt the innocent, Fu Zhen Daojun expressed his dissatisfaction with him when he spoke, if he acted recklessly, he would definitely be the first to clean him up.
Du Lingxiao waited for them to finish speaking, and then said gently: "No matter whether Ah Li has a spiritual root or not, she is my disciple, and my disciple, I must take care of her when she grows up." ”
These words directly and forcefully refuted the meaning of Elder Zhigui and Xiao Lingfang. Xiao Lingfang was helpless, he had learned Du San's persistence, and he never thought that he would really send Jiang Li to the world, but he was disappointed again.
Elder Zhigui snorted coldly: "You let her stay in the cultivation realm, and in the future, people of her generation will be able to fly away, she won't know anything, and being ridiculed is what you want." ”
A good attitude when he said this was already the biggest limit for Elder Zhigui, but it was really the truth.
Now that Jiang Li is still young, everyone doesn't feel any difference, and Jiang Li himself can't feel any difference. But a few years later, the companions who grew up with her all possessed the skills of the fairy family, and she could only look up to her former companions; What's more, others can stay young, but she is the only one who watches herself grow old, who can replace the torment of this?
Even Han Yueyan fell silent at this moment, not knowing how to answer.
"What you said is nothing more than the statement that Ah Li has no spiritual root." Du Lingxiao said: "How can you be sure that Ah Li has no spiritual root?" ”
Elder Zhigui couldn't wait to point at Kong Yan, Luo Jinxiu, Lin Jianyu and Jiang Luo: "They can testify, and the gossip plate is also here, ready to be tested at any time." ”
Kong Yan: ......
Luo Jinxiu: ......
Lin Jianyu: ......
Jiang Luo: ......
Elder, we don't want to testify, okay? We've been dragged here by you, okay?
Especially Jiang Luo, Elder Zhigui's name has been quickly blacklisted by her. This person is so annoying, does Ah Li have a spiritual root, and is Shouyi Zhenren willing to accept her as an apprentice, what does it have to do with you? It's too wide.
"There are times when the spirit weapon is not accurate."
Du Lingxiao's words made Elder Zhigui scoff, but Du Lingxiao's cultivation was higher than him, so he didn't dare to teach him a lesson like he had just taught Jiang Li. Only dare to express dissatisfaction with the eyes.
"The spirit weapon is naturally accurate when used to test ordinary spiritual roots, but there is a special spiritual root that is not only undetectable by the instrument, but also cannot be detected by even a monk with advanced cultivation, and such a spiritual root is called a hidden spiritual root."
"Huh? The spiritual root is also divided into a hidden spiritual root? Fei Yizhang was surprised, it was the first time he had heard of it.
Du Lingxiao nodded: "Because it has never been discovered, few people know about it." ”
Fu Qi Daojun closed his eyes, Xiao Ling stroked his forehead, and Elder Zhigui had a look of "I see you make it up, continue to make it". Yuyun Zhenren and the others all listened with a look of novelty.
"Ah Li is such a spiritual root, although it is a hidden root of the five spirits, the strength of the five spiritual roots is the same, and it happens to be able to practice the 'mixed yuan exercise' handed down by the ancestors of this school." Du Lingxiao's calm and calm appearance was put forward by those who were not present.
Knowing that the elders are uncomfortable, what is the hidden spirit root, what is the spirit root that cannot be detected, you are simply fooling people. Don't think you're pretty, I really believe you.
"Since it's a spiritual root that can't be detected, how do you know?" Hmph, watch the old man poke your cowhide.
"Of course I don't know."
Well, everyone here has a feeling of internal injury. Even Su Xiaofeng's junior brothers and sisters looked at him in disbelief: Senior brother, are you teasing us?
"It's just that Shizun occasionally mentioned it when he was alive, and found that Ah Li's state was somewhat similar to the hidden spirit root, so he boldly speculated.
Elder Zhigui really felt like he had been tricked, his hair was all open, and he was very angry: "Du Shouyi, you deceive people too much. ”
"That's it, Ah Li." Du Lingxiao suddenly shouted, Jiang Li who was out of the world.
"Ah, master?" She was thinking about her hidden spiritual root, it turned out that she didn't have a spiritual root, but others couldn't find it, but fortunately, the master had a unique vision.
"You stand over there." Du Lingxiao pointed to the center of the hall.
"Oh." With so many people sitting here, standing in the middle by herself, it feels so uncomfortable, especially the elder who is always thinking about driving her down the mountain.
Chu Yingrou saw her displeasure, patted her on the shoulder, and motioned for herself to accompany her, but was stopped by Du Lingxiao. Jiang Li had no choice but to walk to the center of the hall sullenly, how could it seem that he had done something wrong and was interrogated.
"Uncle Fu Zhen, please release your coercion to Ah Li."
Coercion is the spiritual pressure of a monk, and the deeper the cultivation, the greater the mental pressure on others. When a monk with advanced cultivation is facing the enemy, if the opponent's cultivation is not as good as his, he is often directly suppressed by the monk's coercion and has no power to resist. Not to mention those who haven't cultivated.
"Senior brother......" Liu Menghuan was surprised and worried.
Elder Fu Daojun didn't expect Du Lingxiao to make such an almost ridiculous suggestion, so he was stunned for a moment, not knowing what to do. The rest of the people were even more incredible, and they all secretly thought that Du Lingxiao was crazy.
The coercion of the Yuanying-level monks was only able to withstand by Du Lingxiao, Ye Haojiang, Xiao Lingfang and Zhigui Zhenren.
"Master." Jiang Luo looked at Fu Qi Daojun with a worried face, for fear that he would hurt Jiang Li.
Fu Zhen Daojun groaned, seeing that Du Lingxiao's face was calm and calm, not as if he was a hypocrisy, thinking that he would never joke with the lives of his disciples. So he was afraid of Jiang Luo and signaled her to be restless.
Then, the coercion was controlled within a certain range, and little by little, he tried to cover the past towards Jiang Li.
The coercion of the Yuanying Monk was not blown, even if it was not directed at him, Kong Yan felt his heart beat faster, his hands and feet numb, like an invisible mountain pressing down, making himself unable to move. Looking at the rest of the people, it doesn't seem to be much better than their own.
Ye Haojiang and Du Lingxiao teamed up to protect the brothers and sisters behind them; Zhigui and Feiyi concentrated on each other, hugged Yuan Shouyi, and tried not to be disturbed by this coercion; While Xiao Lingfang was protecting Lin Jianyu, he actually had the heart to instruct him on what to do; Xiyun Zhenren had already retreated to the door of the side hall with Luo Jinxiu, and it seemed that there was a tendency to continue to retreat. Jiang Luo was protected by a trace of divine consciousness from Fu Daojun, and she was also calm and composed.
Looking at Jiang Li in the center of the main hall again, with a look of ignorance, looking at the people sitting in different shapes, their big eyes were completely blank and confused, and there was no abnormality.
"Master, has the coercion been released?"
All:......
Void!
The fact that the monk's coercion was ineffective against Jiang Li was greatly unexpected by everyone.
At this moment, Du Lingxiao almost didn't need to explain anything, and saw Elder Zhigui stand up with an ugly face and walk away. Elder Fei Yi followed, but he was more polite, and after greeting everyone, he left in a hurry.
"This ...... She ...... "Xiao Lingfang was poor for words for the first time, and she didn't know what to say," or not. ”
At first, he also thought that Du Lingxiao was really fooling them, but it was impossible to lie under the nose of Yuanying Patriarch. So he can only believe in the "hidden roots" remarks. Then again, it's not a bad thing that the sect has an extra disciple with a special spiritual root, and it also seems to be a good thing that no one can cultivate the "Mixed Yuan Technique" that no one has been able to cultivate for thousands of years.
Xiyun Zhenren wanted to take Luo Jinxiu back to heal, but he didn't stay for long.
Only Fu Zhen Daojun looked at Jiang Li with a bright face, as if he had picked up a rare treasure: "I don't know what kind of elixir can complement the hidden spirit root." ”
Kong Yan stepped forward to put away the gossip plate that he had forgotten on the table, and suddenly heard someone talking to him.
"Would you like to come to Su Xiao Peak to do something?"
When he looked up, it was Liu Menghuan, the steward of Su Xiaofeng. It turned out that Liu Menghuan had been observing this outer disciple, although he had not been guided by a professional master, and his foundation was a little unstable. But it can be seen that this person is neat, dedicated and responsible, and can not only cultivate to the foundation building period, but also get a position in the deacon hall, and his mind will not be bad. It just so happened that Su Xiaofeng needed such a person to help her get started.
For Kong Yan, this sentence can be described as a good thing.
No matter how good the position of the deacon hall is, after all, it is an outer disciple, and the sect's attention to the outer disciple is limited after all. If he goes to Su Xiao Peak, then the situation is different, even if he can't become an inner disciple, the guidance of the usual exercises and the elixir of cultivation will definitely make him go to the next level in the shortest time.
Don't let him sour Luo Jinxiu and Lin Jianyu before, if there is such an opportunity in front of him, he will definitely not hesitate.
Soon after this incident, one day, the sky was clear, and Han Yueyan and Du Zhen both ran to Ye Haojiang.
"Third Senior Brother, is there really a hidden spirit root in the world?"
"The world is so big, there are no wonders."
"Xiao Ah Li is really the Five Spirits Hidden Root?"
"Senior brother said yes."
Is this answer yes or no, Han Yueyan and Du Zhenjun looked at each other, on the one hand, they felt that what the third senior brother said was right, and on the other hand, they faintly thought that they were still fooled by the senior brother.
