Chapter 49: Five Elements Xuandan

After all, Li Shimin is in a top Jiangmen family and has a lot of knowledge. He judged that the energy that was swimming outside his body should be the magicians, and the so-called 'spiritual power' was undoubtedly -

But what Li Shimin couldn't understand was how he had 'spiritual power'? He didn't go to the magic of a magician. And these days he is in the palace, although he has searched all the classics of the two Taoist and Buddhist families, it is difficult to explain his current situation.

With the spiritual power of the sorcerer, it seems to be a good thing, he can draw more powerful spirit pattern runes, and there is even hope in the future that he will become a real great master of armor refining.

But Li Shimin was even more worried that something was wrong with his improved 'Five Wheels Divine Qi Technique', so today he thought about going to the mansion of Yu Wenshi and looking for the medicine king Sun Simiao.

He wanted Sun Simiao to show him if it was really his body that had gone wrong? What was the reason for cultivating spiritual power? Unfortunately, Sun Simiao had not yet entered Beijing, which made him disappointed.

After about forty breaths, this 'Taiyi Tiangang Diagram' was finally completed. When Li Shimin's last stroke fell, the wind condensed on this piece of rice paper as well, but in the next moment, the paper suddenly shattered.

This is because the quality of the paper itself is not up to standard, and it is not a special rune paper; the second is that Li Shimin's current Taoism is not enough, and he has now achieved the 'divine self-rhyme', but he cannot coordinate the 'spirit of heaven and earth' contained in the rune array. In short, practice is not enough.

And just after this piece of rice paper was shattered, Li Shimin looked at the little spiritual light contained in the tip of his pen, and was stunned for a while.

After a long time, he suddenly turned around and took a tin box from his bookshelf.

It was a trap box he had made himself to store his private belongings. And with Li Shimin, he pressed a few buttons above. The tin box instantly made a 'bang' sound and opened to both sides.

At the bottom of this box are a few books, and the Tai Miao Shen Forbidden Diagram and the Five Virtues Fragments he bought are all in them. And on top of these books is a small, less than fist-sized jade bottle.

Li Shimin's expression was solemn, and he regarded it as a treasure, and held the jade bottle in his hand.

This is an elixir, called the Five Elements Xuanyuan Dan, which was obtained by an encounter in his childhood.

At that time, his father Li Yuan was still serving as the assassin of Qizhou, and Li Shimin also followed his parents. It was also during this time that he rescued an old beggar who was hungry and cold and fainted in front of the Qizhou Thorn Mansion.

At that time, he was ridiculed by his brother and several cousins because of this matter, but Li Shimin ignored it, not only arranged for the old beggar to live in the Assassin's Mansion, but also asked people to give decoction. But in the end, the old beggar still couldn't survive that winter.

It wasn't until this dying moment that Li Shimin knew the identity of this old beggar, and he also got the gift of this man before he died.

This person is the closest servant of Shi Wansui, the first fierce general of the Great Sui in the past, named Shi Huan. In the twentieth year of Emperor Kaihuang of Sui, the first emperor ordered the warriors to kill Shi Wansui in the court because of Yang Su's slander. After Shi Wansui's death, his family was persecuted by Yang Su and had to flee in all directions, and the family servant Shi Huan was one of them.

And the things that this person bequeathed to Li Shimin have a book, a picture, and a Dan, and all of them are of great value.

That book is the original of the Red Blood Burning Heaven Dafa that Shi Wansui majored in, and the legend is that it is in the same vein as the Red Sun Extreme True Dafa, and it is the top and most domineering martial arts in this world.

However, this book is of little use to Li Shimin, just because the requirements for qualifications of this Red Blood Burning Heaven Dafa are also as harsh as the Red Sun Extreme True Dafa, requiring cultivators to have dragon liver and phoenix marrow, turtle heart and tiger bones.

And that map is a map. In the past, after Shi Wansui died, he still left a lot of family wealth, some of which were taken out by his servants and buried in a barren mountain near Chang'an City. Originally, Shi Huan planned to find an opportunity to hand it over to Shi Huaiyi, the son of Shi Wansui. But after Yang Guang ascended the throne, Shi Huaiyi was also given death. The family wealth of these historians became ownerless and was transferred to him by Shi Huan.

However, this old beggar also specially explained that the wealth of the Shi family brought out by this person actually did not have much money, and it was mainly ink armor and weapons. Shi Wansui didn't value money during his lifetime, but he liked all kinds of ink armor and battle equipment, so those 'family wealth' included a full forty sets of cavalry armor, twenty sets of general-level battle armor, six sets of handsome-level, one king-level, and three rare divine weapons.

And this is only a part of Shi Wansui's collection, this peerless general went to war in all directions during his lifetime and captured countless people. In his hand is the king-level battle armor, there are seven or eight pieces. It's a pity that the vast majority of them were too late to be transported out of Chang'an, and were seized by the Sui family soon after.

Li Shimin has always wanted to see these high-grade ink armors, especially in the past few years, it is simply itchy and hard to scratch.

This is not because he is greedy for money, but because these king-level and handsome-level armors can broaden his knowledge and greatly benefit his armor-making skills.

However, Li Shimin has been patient and curious in recent years, and ignored this treasure, according to what the old beggar said, the embroidered clothes guard in the middle of the court pursued Shi Wansui's old department very closely, like the poison of the bones, until death, otherwise with the old beggar's martial arts cultivation, it would not fall to the point of freezing and starving to death.

So Li Shimin didn't even dare to go over there to take a look over there all these years.

At this time, if he is single, it naturally doesn't matter. But the problem is that behind Li Shimin, there is the entire martial arts Li family. Therefore, he is never willing to take the initiative to cause trouble for his family unless he has to.

As for that pill, it was the Five Elements Xuanyuan Pill, which was one of the reasons why he made up his mind to specialize in the Five Rounds of Divine Qi Technique.

This is a divine pill obtained by Shi Wansui in the early years, refined by Tao Hongjing, the great master of the Shangqing faction, also known as the Xuanyuan Creation Pill.

Legend has it that any martial artist under the rank of one can immediately improve the cultivation of the true yuan by one or two levels, and can prolong the longevity and cure the hidden diseases in the body.

It's a pity that Shi Wansui at that time had already been among the super-grades, and he was only one step away from the god level. So he kept this pill and didn't take it.

Originally, this one planned to hand over this thing to his sister-in-law Shi Huaiyi, but after that big change, not only did the Shi family disperse, but Shi Huaiyi was also given death. This divine pill finally fell into the hands of Li Shimin.

This is exactly where his confidence lies in the cultivation of the Five Rounds of Divine Qi, in the past hundred years in the Li family, no one has ever been able to rely on this exercise to cultivate the True Yuan to above the third grade. But in the future, if he is at the top of the third grade of the advanced Dao, or the second grade, with the help of this Dan power at that time, he is still very hopeful and promoted to the forest of the first grade.

And a first-class powerhouse no longer embarrasses the martial arts Li family. His father, Li Yuan, as well as those relatives and elders, most of them are in this realm.

However, now the plan can't catch up with the changes, if something really goes wrong with his body, he will probably need to use this elixir.

The Five Elements Xuanyuan Dan claims to be able to cure all hidden diseases in the body, so presumably the problems in his body are no exception.

Li Shimin hopes that his situation will not really fall to this point, but this needs a top doctor to help him make a judgment.

※ ※ ※ ※

The next day, Li Shimin stepped out of the house, and was chased back by the servants sent by Weishantang. This made him confused, Li Xiaoji clearly said that he could come and go as he wanted in the family studies.

And these days, he has also complied with the hints of this clan uncle very well, and educated all the 'classmates' who tried to challenge him more than once.

When he asked this servant carefully, he realized that it was not by chance that his father Li Yuan decided to come to the clan study today. This also brought several distinguished guests with him, one is Yang Xuangan, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, and the other is Hu Sizheng, the squire of the Ministry of War.

Li Shimin couldn't help but be even more puzzled, thinking that this could be for the admission of Guozi Temple?

As early as the thirteenth year of the emperor's reign, the first emperor would be the independence of Guozi Temple, controlled by the Ministry of Rites, not governed by Taichang. But three years after the great cause, His Majesty has now reclassified the Guozi Temple to Taichang. However, the selection of students in Guozi Temple is still in charge of the Ministry of Rites.

Therefore, the Guozi Temple, although it is now under the jurisdiction of Su Wei, the Taichang Qing, the number of places that can be admitted is still determined by the Ministry of Rites.

And not long ago, Yang Xuangan, the secretary of the Ministry of Rites, was edicted by the Son of Heaven to inspect some adult nobles to enroll in school.

Li Shimin is actually not interested in Guozi Temple. He had heard the eldest grandson Wuji say that what was taught there was actually something broad and general, really advanced exercises, clever military strategies, even if Guozi Temple wanted to teach, it couldn't find a suitable teacher.

The only attraction in Guozi Temple is the book that records one hundred and fifty-seven complete exercises in the world, one hundred and twenty-two weapons, more than 200 sets of lance techniques, as well as various fist techniques, archery, and spear skills, as well as all the subsets of scriptures and histories collected by the Great Sui over the years.

But this is certainly very attractive to those peasant families who have no inheritance, but for people like him and the eldest grandson Wuji, it has little effect.

What's more, with a status like theirs, you can see the complete "Great Sui Martial Classics" at any time, as well as those Confucian classics.

Therefore, Li Shimin estimated that he would not learn much useful things in it.

However, his father's Li Yuan attaches great importance to it. On the one hand, he wants his second son, who is not worry-free, to have control from now on, and on the other hand, he wants to find a background for him and mix up qualifications.

It should be known that although the Son of Heaven was vigorously advocating the imperial examination at this time, the Guozi Temple was still the official school of the Great Sui, in charge of training and teaching the princes, managing the politics of the central and local schools, and was more and more valued by the Son of Heaven.

Today, nearly seventy percent of the officials in the court were born here.

At this time, although Li Shimin has been appointed as the post of preparing for the left body, this shadow official is in the court, and he cannot be regarded as a person from the right path. But if he can graduate from Guozi Temple, then the practice is that he can be transferred one rank above the military rank, and his future promotion will be smoother.
