Chapter 10 Returning Home
The snow-covered Shimizu Castle is much quieter than usual. Pen ~ fun ~ Pavilion www.biquge.info Chu Xuan changed into a coarse linen dress and stood in front of the old Zhang family's wine shop.
"Uncle Zhang, I'll buy some wine for grandpa." Chu Xuan smiled.
"Chu Xuan, I haven't seen you for a few years. I heard that you learned that immortal spell in the Qingshui Sect, and you should have achieved something by now, tsk, that kid in my family, he just doesn't fight... I really envy you. As he spoke, he gave Chu Xuan two jars of wine.
Chu Xuan carried the wine, came to the blacksmith Wang's shop, and walked in: "Uncle Wang, I'm back to see you." Placing a jar of wine on the table, the king blacksmith came out of the back room, sweating profusely, and seemed to be striking iron.
"Chu Xuan! Sit down, I haven't seen you for a few years, let your Aunt Wang cook us a few good dishes and talk about it well. Uncle Wang is still so enthusiastic, "I heard that the kid of the Li family is now in what foundation building period, Chu Xuan has been smart since he was a child, he must be much stronger than him." ”
Chu Xuan didn't mention it, but said, "Don't bother Aunt Wang, I'll leave right away." Hurry back to see grandpa. ”
Uncle Wang took out a ring and handed it to Chu Xuan: "I said at the beginning, when you cultivate immortals, I will definitely give you a good weapon." But the immortal magic weapon is demanding, and in my shop, only this bit of dark iron can barely be used as a material for the immortal weapon. I heard that the magic weapon of the immortal is not necessarily a weapon, but I don't know this ring... Can it be used as a magic treasure, hehe. ”
Chu Xuan did not push back, but a warm current overflowed in his heart. Hold the ring in your hand. "Thank you, Uncle Wang."
Uncle Wang looked at Chu Xuan and said with relief, "I, a man of iron, don't know about your immortal cultivation. But I know that everything is difficult at the beginning, and I can't give up easily. Just like when I hit this ring, Uncle Wang, I have been fighting weapons and armor for decades, but this ring is the first time I have played it, but it took a lot of time. It hasn't been formed for so long, and I'm still worried that this small piece of dark iron will be scrapped, but after all, dark iron is dark iron, and unlike mortal iron, it can only be formed after a longer tempering, haha. ”
Chu Xuan's heart was shocked, his mind was full of the words of the king blacksmith, and suddenly his heart was opened, and a stream of emerald green gushed out, and this emerald green was like a fire that spread all over his body. "Thank you, Uncle Wang!" After that, he disappeared into the wind and snow without looking back.
Blacksmith Wang looked at the direction in which Chu Xuan had disappeared: "This old doctor Chu gave me a small piece of dark iron and asked me to make an object for Chu Xuan casually, and he didn't let me mention him, but what did he mean?" ”
……
"Haha, kid is good. I also know how to honor my grandfather. Grandpa looked at the hot roast chicken and wine, smiled, ate and drank, but didn't ask Chu Xuan about his cultivation at all.
"Grandpa, I haven't been by your side for the past few years, are you in good health?" Chu Xuan looked at his grandfather.
"Oh, grandpa, I can't die." Grandpa was eating roast chicken and gulping wine.
"Grandpa, I learned the Chaos Trick from my father's jade pendant, but something went wrong......," Chu Xuan said, "I haven't been able to build a foundation successfully all these years. ”
"Chaos Jue ......" When Grandpa heard this term, the roast chicken in his hand stopped, his brows furrowed slightly, and he seemed to be trying to think of something. What did Chaos Trick say earlier? ”
"You can only cultivate if you haven't reached the foundation building period..."Chu Xuan said slowly.
"Oops, I still can't remember grandpa." Grandpa shook his head and continued to nibble on the roast chicken, his mouth full of grease stains, and it was quite indecent to eat, "But this exercise is quite special, so practice it slowly, cultivation is not an overnight thing, build a foundation, build a Dao foundation, is a 'Dao' foundation, ......"
"Grandpa, I'll go for a walk." Chu Xuan said calmly.
Chu Xuan came to the bottom of the cliff where he used to pick ebony grass, remembering that when he was eight years old, he climbed up the cliff alone, picking that ebony grass, and when he came here again, he was already thirteen years old. Although he has achieved no results in his cultivation for five years, his grandfather's health looks good, and his grandfather is still the same, eating meat and drinking a lot. Thinking back to the appearance of grandpa eating roast chicken just now, his beard was full of grease stains, and he said vaguely: "Build the foundation, build the Dao foundation, 'Dao' the foundation..."
Suddenly, Chu Xuan's face changed, and the words of the Chaos Technique appeared in his mind: "This exercise needs to be cultivated before it has reached the foundation. Building a foundation, what is built is the foundation of the Dao, there is no Tao in the chaos of the original, if the foundation of the Dao has been built, it will not be possible to cultivate this skill......"
"Chaos has no way...... Chu Xuan's expression became more and more solemn, and he suddenly laughed loudly: "Haha, build the foundation, build the foundation, build the foundation, build the foundation, build the foundation, build the Dao foundation." There is no way out of chaos... Why build a foundation! "Suddenly, the emerald spirit in his heart swelled, and the chaotic aura in the meridians gushed out like a river bursting its banks." Give me condensation! Chu Xuan ran the Chaos Technique with all his might, the meridians were completely unblocked, and the gushing aura gradually contracted in the place where the body condensed and the dantian, but it did not stop. This mass of true qi in the dantian is constantly absorbing the aura of the outside world, and inside, there is even a phenomenon of liquefaction of some true qi.
"It turns out that I have been on the wrong path all along," Chu Xuan laughed, after so many years of savings, although the dantian has not been able to gather qi and turn into true qi, this special chaotic aura has never escaped all over the body, and at this moment, it is all gathered in the dantian. Condensation, become!
Chu Xuan felt the changes in his body, directly crossed the foundation and condensed qi, but his own cultivation had also reached the early stage of qi condensation, running the chaos technique, condensing the chaotic true qi on his index finger, and pressing it out with a finger against the cliff, but with a bang, a large pit with a radius of three feet appeared on the cliff, and the shattered rocks fell with a clatter. This is exactly the spell that comes with the Chaos Formula, the Chaos Finger.
Chu Xuan looked at the big pit on the cliff, a smile appeared on his face, obviously satisfied with the power of this finger. However, the true qi in the body was in deficit for a while, and his body was almost unstable.
Chu Xuan returned to the thatched hut, but saw his grandfather sucking chicken bones. "Yo hehe, the kid goes out and comes back."
"Grandpa, I want to learn alchemy." Chu Xuan said with a smile.
"Alchemy is not a medicine." Grandpa pouted, "Your grandfather and I don't know the immortal method." ”
"Grandpa, you know all about the Chaos Technique, and of course you also know about alchemy." Chu Xuan smiled, "If it weren't for you waking me up, maybe I would have been decadent like this." ”
"Did I say anything?" Grandpa looked dazed, not at all like he pretended.
Chu Xuan looked at his grandfather and recalled what his grandfather had said: "Grandpa's memory is fragmented, and he always thinks of something from time to time, but forgets something. "Looks like Grandpa may have really forgotten. Chu Xuan couldn't help but wonder in his heart, grandpa knew so much about cultivating immortals, he must have been an immortal once, what happened to make grandpa become what he is now?
"By the way, you want to do alchemy. Grandpa has a Dan furnace here. While rummaging through the clutter, Grandpa pulled out a rusty Dan furnace and threw it to Chu Xuan. Chu Xuan took a look and couldn't help but smile bitterly, if you want to say that this is a Dan furnace, it is better to say that it is a small pot, rusty and dusty, and there are still a few broken places on it, and the holes are filled with materials different from those of the Dan furnace. Chu Xuan took it in his hand and knocked it, and suddenly the dust filled the house, and some things that I didn't know if it was rust or debris fell to the ground.
"It's quite sturdy..."Chu Xuan put it into the storage bag, something is better than nothing.
