Chapter 7: The Hidden Spirit Root
There are only two masters and apprentices in the quiet bamboo forest, and I don't know how long it has been. The residual tea in the pot was already cold, Wu Chengfeng woke up from his meditation, took a sip of the residual tea in the cup, and frowned as if it didn't taste very good.
"Just ask, don't look like this. Seeing that Lin Xi wanted to speak and stopped, Wu Chengfeng pretended to be a majestic reprimand.
"Disciple wants to ask why you accepted me as an apprentice," Lin Xi asked weakly.
"Indeed, Tian Moxue in Wuyang City this time is extremely talented, and the best ice spirit root is rare in a hundred years, and she is already an excellent seedling. Cheng Lu, born with a water spirit root, although it is not as good as Tian Moxue's best ice spirit root, but this woman's understanding is so high that even Tian Moxue is far inferior. But you don't have to be presumptuous, there are only two kinds of people in the world who can't test the qualifications of Kunlun Lingyu. ”
took a sip of the residual tea in the pot, looking at Wu Chengfeng's furrowed eyebrows, obviously it didn't taste very good. Then he said, "One is the dead, and the other is called the Hidden Spirit Root. ”
"You mean..."
"That's right, you're the Hidden Spirit Root!"
"What is the Hidden Spirit Root?"
"The so-called Hidden Spirit Root is the most magical thing in this world. This hidden spirit root is a mutation within a mutation. It is the rarest qualification on the road to cultivating immortals. But because of the jealousy of heaven, the so-called hardship is the only way to become a master. Only by tasting the hardships of life will you open the spiritual root and increase your wisdom greatly! And in your spiritual root, there is an extreme flame power hidden. Wu Chengfeng patiently explained.
"I'm a disciple of the Iron Spear Sect, and what I practice is the art of battle array killing. Therefore, the first thing is to refine the heart, and there is a red dust refining heart array in the secret realm of the imperial capital of my dynasty. It was arranged by a predecessor back then, which allowed people to taste the hardships of life with a trace of soul power, so as to wash their hearts. Birth, old age, sickness and death, hatred, love, parting, unbelievable, five aggregates gathering. Only by tasting the sufferings of this life can we practice all the wonderful methods in this world."
"The disciple is an orphan, and now he has no father or mother, and everything is taught by the master. Lin Xi's answer was categorical.
"When you go back to the mountain with me to worship the ancestral hall of the ancestor, the teacher will personally wash your hair and cut the marrow. Ten years later, if you can go to the Red Dust Heart Refining Array, it will be of great benefit to you. Wu Chengfeng seemed to be very satisfied with his apprentice, looking at the dog's eyes full of approval, and it seemed that there was something else.
"Senior brother, you are not kind! let you help me inspect the Quartet, you actually took away the best seedlings, this thing is not authentic. ”
"Senior Brother Xu, I miss you as the general of the Northern University in Guanju Town, and there are many disciples under him. Senior brother, there is no one under my sect except a boy who sprinkles and sweeps, do you still want to rob me?"
Lin Xi's eyes flickered, and a middle-aged man in a cyan Confucian shirt was already sitting on the stone pier opposite the master. And listening to the meaning of the master's words, this person is actually Xu Tianyi, the general of Zhenbei!!
"You can't say that!Senior brother, if you hadn't been obsessed with refining weapons all these years, and you were too lazy to train your disciples in the northern Xinjiang, those who wanted to worship you as a teacher would have to go to the imperial capital!Ah~ Hahahaha!!"
"Senior brother, you still don't give up! Today you just said that you are broken, don't even think about robbing this disciple. ”
Wu Chengfeng and Xu Tian are the fourth-generation disciples of the Iron Gun Gate, and the two have known each other for more than 200 years. The two of them entered the Iron Spear Gate at the same time, but the two took completely different paths. Xu Tianyi took the fierce path of reducing ten meetings with one force, and an iron spear swept in all directions. led the three thousand iron-blooded battalions to fight in the east and west, and forcibly suppressed the demon clan in the wilderness, while Wu Chengfeng was a completely different way. Strategizing, it is not an exaggeration to use it on him to win a thousand miles. He prefers refining, and is one of the few refiners in the Wuyang Empire, and his works are now hard to find. He is obsessed with refining weapons and has no intention of accepting apprentices, so Lin Xi is his founding disciple.
"Didn't I say you, junior brother, do you think that you are not even willing to invite tea after sitting down for a long time?" Xu Tianyi quipped.
"Xi'er, come and see Uncle Shi. You're a general of Zhenbei in the north! Famous big man, cough ~ cough ~"
"Hey, junior brother, tell me about you, you are also one of the many refiners in the Wuyang Empire. I can't get rid of this problem of taking advantage of small advantages!"
"Lin Xi greets his uncle!" Lin Xi grew up in Huangsha Town, and it is not an exaggeration to say that he grew up listening to the legend of the general of the town. At this moment, the real person is in front of him, and he is still his uncle, and the excitement in his heart is already beyond words.
"Good boy, I heard that you grew up in Huangsha Town, don't follow this bad old man, how about going to the Zhenbei Army with me?"
"I said that the surname is Xu, is there such a senior brother as you? Back then, it was your junior nephew who dug the corner of his junior brother's wall, are you embarrassed?" Wu Chengfeng immediately jumped up from the stone pier.
"Don't get excited, don't get excited, junior brother, isn't this a love for my brother. Xu Tianyi's face was joking.
"Don't talk nonsense, hurry up and bring the meeting gift. Then go back to your Zhenbei Army!".
When the two brothers joked with each other, Lin Xi's eyes were about to fall to the ground. Is this really the general of the Zhenbei Army?
"Cough~" Wu Chengfeng found that the atmosphere was a little wrong, and coughed lightly. Xu Tianyi also found that he seemed to be a little scared of the little nephew, and waved his sleeves.
Several strange objects appeared on the stone table, what seemed to be a tortoise shell, but the tortoise shell was covered with spikes, and the dark gray spikes shone coldly. A beast horn that didn't know how it was affected, crystal clear and flashing with a jade-colored light, a faint coercion made people's hearts palpitate.
"This is the carapace of the Xuanmo Turtle with a mutated bloodline, it looks like it has been three thousand years," Wu Chengfeng flicked his fingers, and the spikes rattled. The sound is very beautiful.
"Good thing, this Dark Ink Turtle is known for its strong defenses. Somehow, this beast actually awakened a trace of Xuanwu blood, which is an unexpected joy! The defensive power of this turtle shell has been increased by at least three times, and it is just right to use it to make a battle armor for Lin Xi!!" Wu Chengfeng chattered as if no one was around, and with a wave of his hand, the tortoise shell disappeared into Wu Chengfeng's sleeve.
Then he turned to look at the horns on the table, and looked at them over and over in his hands. He also took the tip of his nose and sniffed it lightly, and then said, "Could this thing be the horn of the one-horned wolf king?"
"Senior brother has good eyesight, this beast horn is very lucky. On the contrary, it was the turtle shell, which really wasted a lot of effort," Xu Tianyi said as if offering a treasure. After a pause, he continued: "This Xuanmo Turtle is already rough and thick-skinned, and it was hit by three god-destroying crossbows without any damage. If it weren't for me passing by, my boys really wouldn't have been able to take it. ”
"There are still more than a dozen people in this northern Xinjiang who can have the ability to break this turtle shell, if you say that you don't damage the turtle shell, I am afraid that there are less than a hand. This animal should have been directly shocked to death by you, senior brother, with your murderous aura. Wu Chengfeng thought for a while and said.
"Yes, this thing is really invulnerable. When its bloodline mutated, the aura of the catastrophe attracted a one-horned wolf king. The seriously injured body after the catastrophe could not be left behind, and the one-horned wolf king was shot and killed on the spot by the god-destroying crossbow of my iron-blooded camp. The thing was unscathed, and even the killing rifle in my hand failed to penetrate its shell. Xu Tianyi was also embarrassed when he said it.
"This day the wolf king's horns have to be pondered carefully, Xi'er hasn't come to thank the rich man" Wu Chengfeng was quite satisfied with his senior brother's meeting gift, and turned around to beckon Lin Xi to come over to thank him.
"Lin Xi thanked Uncle Shi!" Lin Xi bowed and saluted,
"Master and nephew don't need to be polite, I have been friends with your master for many years. When I was young, I also lay a few times in the sea of corpses and blood, you take this token, if anyone is embarrassed in this northern Xinjiang, just show him. Xu Tianyi reached out and touched Lin Xi's hair, reached out and took off a dark token from his waist and handed it to Lin Xi.
Lin Xi didn't know whether to accept it or not, and turned his head to look at the master. Wu Chengfeng nodded, and Lin Xi bent down and took the token forward with both hands.
"Thank you for your generous gift"
Wu Chengfeng looked at Lin Xi's gaze becoming more gentle, if the Dao method is not good, you can cultivate, and if you are not talented, you can still make up for it if you are diligent, but how to train it with a bad nature is in vain. Wu Chengfeng has gone through ups and downs, and in the past two hundred years, he has seen more sinister hearts in the world. How many peerless Tianjiao have fallen willingly, and finally fallen into the devil's way.
The information collected by the disciples of the secret hall of the sect was still in his sleeve, and this child was able to live alone in that place in Huangsha Town for seven years. This is simply incredible, and what is even more incredible is what trace of fire in this child's spiritual root. Although the Hidden Spirit Root has not yet been opened, he can shatter the fire of Kunlun Spirit Jade with just two drops of fingertip blood, which is enough to inherit his mantle.
He knows his own situation that a person who cultivates the truth can live for a hundred years when he builds a foundation, a hundred and fifty years for Jindan, a lifetime of three hundred years for a young baby, a thousand and five years old for a god, a combined lifespan of three thousand, and a life span of five thousand. After that, if you can't become an immortal, you will naturally disappear. He can only choose to be reincarnated and reborn or disbanded into a scattered immortal! He has been practicing since he was six years old, and it has been two hundred and sixty years so far. Senior brother Xu Tianyi is already at the peak of Yuanying, and there is still a chance to break through. And he is not yet in the middle of the Yuan infancy, and the signs of longevity and the five decays of heaven and man seem to be looming. When he met Lin Xi this time, he suddenly remembered that if he died, the inheritance of his Iron Spear Gate Sword Lufeng would be severed. Only then did he move the idea of accepting apprentices and included Lin Xi in the door wall.
Seeing Wu Chengfeng fall into deep thought, Xu Tianyi knew in his heart. As a junior disciple, he has been obsessed with refining weapons all his life and has no intention of cultivating, let alone accepting apprentices. Seeing that Shouyuan was approaching, he accepted an apprentice. This is to complete the responsibility of the inheritance of Jianlu Peak, and I can't help but feel a little desolate in my heart. Cultivating immortals, cultivating immortals, how many people can become immortals in the end? Thinking of this, I can't help but feel a little excited.
Lin Xi didn't know what the two of them were thinking, so he just played with the token in his hand. The excitement on his face was overflowing, how happy he would be if this token was shown to Uncle Li. And those bastards who have bullied themselves in Huangsha Town, you wait for the master to come back and kick your ass!" Lin Xi shouted in his heart.
"Ahh
In the distant town of Huangsha, a few thugs who were basking in the sun on the street suddenly sneezed in unison.
"What the hell, third child, you bastard, it must be that you grabbed the quilt with Lao Tzu last night and caused Lao Tzu to catch a cold!"
"I've hit it too!!"
