Chapter 16: The Soul Forger of the Immortal Formula
Liu Cheng pointed at the fluttershy and said, "That's Fluttershy, so who are?"
"I'm Fluttershy, and that's just when I was a kid. Don't just look at my appearance, I'm not very tall, but my heart has grown. So don't treat me like a child all the time. ”
At this time, an older Fluttershy, about sixteen or seventeen years old, flew up from the bottom of the mountain with a basket in her hand, "Come and try the freshly made spring tea." ”
The two fluttershy set up their tea bowls in the pavilion, make their tea, turn around and grimace at them, and disappear without a trace.
The fluttershy next to her makes a gesture of please, and then flies into the pavilion with Liu Cheng.
The two of them sat down, and Liu Cheng saw that the tea in the teacup was yellow-green, with a slightly fragrant taste. Tasted it gently. Suddenly I felt an indescribable comfort.
Fluttershy pulls a book from her bosom, "This book was copied from the stone gate and is called The Immortal Formula." The book mainly records some things that are explained. I'll teach you the content in the future. Learn how to fly today. ”
"Great, what I want to learn most is flying. ”
"The gods fly in the air, not to drive the clouds, but to rely on magical power, the twisted yin and yang force, the south is yin, and the north is yang. If I am yin, I will go north, if I am yang, I will go south, and the east and west will be surrounded and changed at any time, just as the same poles repel each other, and the opposite poles attract. If a person wants to have the extreme, he must first practice qi and blood, and only when he can control qi and blood can he fly to the sky and the earth. ”
"Hehe, I really don't understand. Can you make it simpler and clearer?" Liu Cheng said embarrassedly.
"I think it's okay for you to practice qi, but your ability to control blood may not be enough, you need to refine your soul first. ”
"Oh, how to refine souls. ”
"In the Peach Blossom Realm, every person who refines immortal spells must first refine his soul and become a soul caster. When your soul power reaches a certain level, you can control every detail of your body. Even control things that are so small that you can't see them with your naked eyes. ”
Liu Cheng begins to practice under Fluttershy's guidance, but he never gets the hang of it.
Later, Fluttershy saw that he was really not good, so she had to teach him how to do vertical and horizontal arts, and Liu Cheng and his master had learned similar light skills, and of course they quickly understood.
According to the method instructed by Fluttershy, luck cohesion, and with a single leap, he was able to jump to a height of several feet, and Liu Cheng was shocked that he could jump so high.
"Don't be happy too early, this is in a dream, I'm afraid it's not so high in reality. ”
Liu Cheng happily jumped from here to there, like a big ball full of elastic power.
"Teach me how to wield the sword, too. Liu Cheng was a little impatient.
Fluttershy then teaches him how to wield the sword, which is really difficult to learn, and Liu Cheng can only make the sword move after learning for a long time.
"Let's learn the soul casting technique first, only by practicing your soul well can you control all things. That's the basis of all immortal spells. ”
"Immortal spells, where did all these mana come from?" Liu Cheng was puzzled, so he asked Fluttershy for advice.
Fluttershy slashes her hand into the sky. Suddenly, the sky that was still blue just now has turned into a starry night sky, the pavilion has also become several large stone pillars standing there, and the surrounding scenery has become a barren Gobi.
Fluttershy points to the Milky Way with her right hand and says, "Our core strength lies in the universe within each of us, and we need to learn to connect with the outer universe." In the depths of the Milky Way, there is a power that you can't imagine, and this power is so great that it can lock the stars and the sun. And within our bodies, each of us also has a small universe whose core power is so great that it can move mountains and seas. But we are not allowed to use it casually, once we don't use it well, we will be swallowed by this power and become a demon. ”
"Wow, what a mystery you say!"
"Actually, I only know a little bit about the skin, which is all said in the immortal formula. The book also mentions that code words and hand tricks are the keys to open the door of the immortal family. ”
The two of them had a good conversation in their dreams, and when they saw that it was not too early, Fluttershy said goodbye to Liu Cheng to get out of the dream, and Liu Cheng was reluctant to give up.
After Fluttershy disappears, Liu Cheng discovers that he is still in this world, and he has not woken up from his dream.
Was it in Fluttershy's dream? or in my own dream? Liu Cheng stared at the stars in the sky in a daze, feeling like a huge eye was staring at him in the depths of the stars.
At the end of the Gobi, black smoke slowly rose up, and he saw a large army of black pressure in the distance rapidly attacking him.
The army was as numerous as ants, as far as the eye could see, and it was getting closer and closer. Liu Cheng felt very frightened, because he had already seen that it was not a human being, it was all skeleton soldiers, and he hurriedly ran back, a few vertical leaps, and finally distanced himself from the army, and he ran towards a huge hill in front of him.
Suddenly, a huge sun rose rapidly on the hills, illuminating the sky, shaking so that people couldn't open their eyes, and where the light flickered, countless shining armor reflected the sunlight, dazzling the eyes. It was a heavy cavalryman made of silver armor. Rushing from the other side of the hill, there was no face in the helmets of those cavalrymen, only darkness, and the armies of both sides were squeezing towards him.
Liu Cheng was so depressed that he was about to lose his breath, so he suddenly woke up and sat up hurriedly, only to feel more comfortable, it turned out to be a nightmare.
After breakfast the next day, Liu Cheng secretly tells Fluttershy about last night's strange dream, and Fluttershy is also surprised, and it stands to reason that Liu Cheng should wake up after he gets out of the dream.
Liu Cheng received two secret orders in the morning, both of which were conveyed by Qianhu Luo Xin, one was that Lord Lu gave him the opportunity to focus on supervising the situation of local officers and soldiers, especially the places where the border was at war, and the other was that the emperor ordered him to go to Jiangxi to search for immortals and people who had attained enlightenment, and by the way, to check the strange cases that happened there.
The two orders sounded very simple, without any specific content, and there seemed to be no war in the Jiangxi area. It's not a border, so it seems that the only way to do it is to inspect the local defenses, so it's better to go out and relax, and as for the immortals, we'll have to walk and see, maybe Fluttershy can help you out.
Liu Cheng went to look for Fluttershy, and saw that Fluttershy was setting up incense cases and flags in the backyard, "Where did you get these things? What are you going to do?" asked Liu Cheng curiously.
"Take it from the shop on the street, and prepare to sacrifice your dragon slaying sword, so as to erase the resentment of the dragon soul in the sword. Fluttershy says as she gets to work.
"Where did you get the money? ”
"I know where to spend money on credit, and when I see what I need, I take it. It's better for you to pay for it. ”
"Don't do this in the future, take me to buy what you need, otherwise you take it and leave, it is equivalent to theft. ”
"I'm just trying to come and go faster and save a lot of unnecessary trouble. Okay, okay, listen to you, I'll take you next time. ”
Once the things are arranged, Fluttershy takes the sword from Liu Cheng and places it on the incense table. Then they burn incense and worship, and they don't know what to say.
After a while, the wind blew fiercely, and the dark clouds overhead, and the courtyard suddenly darkened. After a burst of lightning and thunder, a voice echoed in the courtyard: "I was originally a dragon guarding the gate of heaven, you killed my child, and stabbed me to death, how can you let me forgive me so easily, I will go to the king to sue you, let's see." "After another thunderclap, the clouds went away and the wind stopped, and the sky cleared again.
"That's it, it seems that the dragon has not erased its resentment. Liu Cheng said regretfully.
"The resentment is gone, but the true soul remains, and it is done. Fluttershy claps her hands.
"Why, that's it. Liu Cheng felt incredible.
"I won't explain more to you, I just found out that those ghosts in this sword are still there, and they seem to be cultivating with a certain powerful demon soul. The sword created by Second Uncle Jiang is really powerful, if only he hadn't left the Peach Blossom Realm at the beginning. ”
"By the way, I almost forgot, I came to you for something. Liu Cheng suddenly remembered.
"Oh, tell me something. ”
Liu Cheng says that he will go out to Jiangxi for a few days to do some business, but he never tells Fluttershy that he is now a spy of the Jinyi Guard and an envoy of the Emperor.
"Are you going to Jiangxi, passing through Datong?" asks Fluttershy.
"Well, yes, I almost forgot, I can go to Datong to get some goods, and by the way, I will take you to Gao Qisheng's house.
"Really, let's go tomorrow", and Fluttershy is happy to be able to get out for a walk, see the wider world, and get down to business.
So I prepared my luggage that day, bought two fast horses, and left my mother the next morning, left the capital, and went straight to Datong.
