Chapter 20: Knot Jindan
Zhang Hao guarded Wushan Alchemy outside the cave, but fortunately, there was no danger approaching. Time passed little by little, three hours had passed since the start of alchemy, Wushan had not yet come out, Zhang Hao was very worried, after all, Wushan was only in the state of the soul, Zhang Hao did not understand alchemy, and he did not know how difficult alchemy was. The incense wafting out of the cave made Zhang Hao feel at ease.
When Zhang Hao learned that Wushan would do alchemy, he kept begging Wushan to teach him the method of alchemy, but Wushan was reluctant to agree at first, saying: "It's already very difficult to cultivate, and you still have alchemy." ”
Zhang Hao didn't care about these, he had been pestering Wushan, Wushan was really annoyed by being entangled, so he helped Zhang Hao check whether he had alchemy attributes, and concluded that although Zhang Hao was a five-spirit root, the fire wood spirit root was the weakest, and alchemy could be refined, but the achievement was not high, and at most it would refine the elixir of the Jindan period.
Wushan advised Zhang Hao not to waste on alchemy, and Zhang Hao had no choice but to give up learning alchemy and concentrate on cultivation.
Zhang Hao looked around a little boredly, this is not dangerous. Zhang Hao felt that Wushan would not be able to come out for a while, so he planned to sit down and cultivate. At this moment, Zhang Hao felt an extremely dangerous aura, and reflexively ducked to the side. As soon as he dodged, a blood-red sword qi slashed to the place where he was originally located, and a huge ravine instantly appeared on the ground, and Zhang Hao was suddenly overturned to the ground.
"You're very alert. A masked woman walked towards Zhang Hao with a playful voice. This woman is the mysterious Immortal Venerable who fought with Zhao Ziyu ten years ago, she has not appeared since she was warned by Wushan, and now she suddenly attacks Zhang Hao, she must know that Wushan can't make a move, it seems that she is still thinking about how to get rid of Zhang Hao.
Zhang Hao knows that the good ones don't come, and the ones who come are not good. The coercion on the other party was obviously equivalent to Zhao Ziyu, Zhang Hao did not dare to hesitate, and hurriedly activated the life-saving means given to him by Wushan.
I saw that a red phantom that exuded a powerful aura suddenly appeared on Zhang Hao's body, and the phantom stretched out a palm and slapped it towards the masked woman, the woman showed a frightened expression, she never expected that the other party would leave Zhang Hao such a strong life-saving means, seeing that the palm was about to hit herself, the woman wanted to dodge, but found that she was locked in shape and couldn't dodge.
The woman hurriedly crushed a jade plate, and a blue phantom that exuded a breath similar to that of the red phantom appeared, and the blue phantom stretched out a palm and struck at the palm, "Boom!" The powerful airflow burst open, and the entire Zixia Mountain Range shook violently, and some powerful demon beasts in the depths of the Zixia Mountain Range wailed, with a sense of horror. Several streamers from outside the Zixia Mountain Range rushed here.
Just as the bursting breath was about to hit Zhang Hao's body, a red light flashed, Wushan blocked in front of Zhang Hao, pinched the airflow with one hand, and the airflow exploded with a "bang", and the earth-destroying airflow disappeared, and the blue phantom looked at Wushan in front of him, and disappeared into the sky wrapped in a masked woman.
The streamer outside felt that the breath disappeared, and they all stopped thinking for a moment, and then turned into a streamer and left in the direction they came, Wushan looked around and entered Zhang Hao's body, Zhang Hao had an extra jade bottle in his hand. Zhang Hao hadn't recovered from the impact of the power just now, it was too strong.
Zhang Hao just felt like an ant floating on the sea, this is not something he can resist at all, he feels that if there is no sudden appearance of Wushan, he will definitely be torn to pieces by that force, he vows to become such a person, that kind of power is too charming.
But Zhang Hao couldn't figure it out, why did that woman kill herself, she didn't seem to offend anyone, except for the green lion immortal venerable, could it be the mother of the little lion who came to seek revenge? This is troublesome, women's revenge is more difficult than men, and the blue phantom on the woman's body can block the blow of Wushan's amulet, it seems that it is also the immortal emperor.
Zhang Hao had a headache when he thought about it, he was just a small foundation building period monk but he was stared at by the Immortal Emperor, maybe he would die that day, which made Zhang Hao even more determined to quickly improve his strength and hurry to the lower realm, so that he could be safer.
A burst of wind sounded, an old man and a young man fell in front of Zhang Hao, looking at Zhang Hao's stupid appearance, he hurriedly checked Zhang Hao's body and found that he was not injured.
Zhang Hao came back to his senses and saw that the old man and the young in front of him were his grandfather and aunt, and he breathed a sigh of relief, and inadvertently put the jade bottle into the storage ring.
Zhao Wuxian and Zhao Ziyu naturally saw Zhang Hao's small movements, but they didn't say anything Everyone has their own secrets, so there is no need to ask.
Zhao Wuxian turned around and looked at the abyss in front of Zhang Hao, this abyss was hundreds of meters deep, but the width of this abyss was no more than two meters wide, and there was a gurgling sound of flowing water inside, it was an underground river. Zhao Wuxian found that the two sides of this abyss were like sword marks, but in front of Zhang Hao it was round.
Zhao Wuxian thought for a moment and asked Zhang Hao: "Ling Yun, was there anyone fighting in front of you just now?" It was very powerful, just like grandpa's momentum. Zhao Wuxian exuded an aura.
Zhang Hao looked at his grandfather. He said: "It is true that there were two people fighting here just now, but I didn't feel their breath, and those two people left this abyss in front of me and disappeared. ”
Zhao Wuxian was slightly stunned, strange in his heart, but he didn't say anything, he smiled and said: "It's okay if you're okay, Lingyun, grandpa observed that your breath was suspended, it seems that it is a sign that you want to get married, take grandpa out of the customs and help you protect the Fa." ”
"Won't this delay grandpa's cultivation?" Zhang Hao looked at grandpa.
"No, it won't. Zhao Wuxian smiled kindly: "Grandpa doesn't know how many years he has been in retreat, and he doesn't care about the time of these years. All you have to do is retreat quietly. In the past two days, the Qingyun Sect has been somewhat unstable, and the previous hostile forces have been eyeing each other. ”
Zhang Hao didn't shirk when he heard his grandfather say this, and returned to the cave to prepare for a breakthrough. Zhao Wuxian saw Zhang Hao enter the cave and sealed the cave with a wave of his hand.
"Uncle, where was the Immortal Emperor fighting here just now?" Zhao Ziyu asked Zhao Wuxian.
"I don't know this very well, there is only one breath in the sense that is very familiar, but I can't remember who it is, and the other breath has really not been seen. Zhao Wuxian frowned, and said, "However, that unfamiliar aura is actually very similar to the aura on Ling Yun's body, but it is also very different. Ling Yun doesn't have that much strength, unless..."
Zhao Ziyu said his thoughts: "Unless that person has an unusual relationship with Ling Yun, or it may be Ling Yun's master." ”
"That's right, otherwise it would be impossible for the two Immortal Emperors to fight Ling Yun unscathed, and Ling Yun seemed to have lied just now. Zhao Wuxian agreed with Zhao Ziyu's opinion. And he said, "But why did he lie?"
"I think that Immortal Emperor didn't let Ling Yun tell us, Uncle I don't think we should ask Ling Yun and don't cause unnecessary trouble. Zhao Ziyu thought for a moment and said.
"What you said makes sense, it's also a good thing to believe that there is an Immortal Emperor Master behind Ling Yun, don't worry about other details. Zhao Wuxian nodded.
Then Zhao Wuxian asked Zhao Ziyu to continue the retreat, and he stayed in Zhang Hao's retreat.
Ten years have passed since Zhang Hao's retreat, Zhang Hao's retreat is covered with thick vines, birds and beasts often stay in front of his cave gate, everything is very calm, and no one can see that it is inhabited.
Suddenly, the cave shook, the birds and beasts were frightened and scattered, condensing a cloud of aura at the top of the mountain, gradually pressing down towards the mountain, but it was bounced off several times, and the clouds became thicker and thicker, covering the sky for dozens of miles, faintly revealing a sense of coercion.
"Is it finally going to get married? Ten years is not a short time. A white-haired old man next to the cave muttered, this old man was Zhang Hao's grandfather, Zhao Wuxian. He has been here to help Zhang Hao protect the Dharma for ten years. During this period, Zhao Lingyue had come many times, Zhao Lingyue had already succeeded in marrying Dan, and now he was a monk of the third layer of Jindan, but when he saw that Zhang Hao was still in retreat, he left gloomily.
After losing her parents, Zhao Lingyue blamed Zhang Hao for a long time, blamed him for his low strength, and blamed him for provoking right and wrong and killing his parents. Zhang Hao also felt that it was his fault, so he could only endure the pain and leave.
The two siblings have been separated for more than 20 years, and Zhao Lingyue is not a careless child at the beginning, and understands that her original words hurt Zhang Hao a lot.
Every time the old man saw Zhao Lingyue, he couldn't help but think of his grandson and granddaughter-in-law, but he didn't show it, for fear that Zhao Lingyue would be sad.
Zhang Hao in the cave, his handprints changed, and the aura in his body gradually gathered and solidified, vaguely like a golden pill, but the aura in his body was consumed very quickly, and it was not enough to maintain the knot pill, which was still Zhang Hao's non-stop operation of the exercises to absorb the aura outside.
The clouds outside the mountain are more extensive, covering hundreds of miles away.
Zhao Wuxian stared at the sky, his hands made hand seals, and an enchantment covered the entire Zixia Mountain Range. A powerful aura was released, and the demon beasts of the entire Zixia Mountain Range crawled to the ground, not daring to spy on the aura clouds in the sky.
Zhao Wuxian looked at the ever-expanding clouds, and couldn't help but smack his tongue secretly: "This Qingyun Heaven and Earth is really domineering, this is equivalent to robbing the aura of the Zixia Mountain Range, I can't care that the ancestor is so fast even though he is promoted by the five spirit roots, this practice of seizing the aura of heaven and earth is really powerful, but it is a pity that only people with five spirit roots can practice." ”
I only heard a cold cry in Zhang Hao's body: "Quickly take Baijin Dan and end the pill in one fell swoop." ”
Zhang Hao didn't dare to slack off, took out the Baijin Pill and swallowed it in his stomach, the majestic medicinal power exploded instantly, the aura in Zhang Hao's body was saturated, Zhang Hao's body was in a faint pain, and the Honghuang refining body was automatically running, and his body emitted a bronze light.
In Zhang Hao's body, the golden pill became more and more obvious, and countless spiritual qi continued to enter Zhang Hao's golden pill. A quarter of an hour later, the golden light in Zhang Hao's body was sheng, and a golden pill was dripping and rotating in the dantian, and the pill was successful.
Zhang Hao was about to laugh happily, and the cold drink started again: "How can the golden pill of the five spirit roots be so easy to form, hurry up and go outside the cave to absorb the aura clouds outside." As soon as the words fell, a spiritual energy hit the top of the cave, and a large hole was blasted out of the top of the mountain.
Zhao Wuxian outside the cave shrank his eyes, and he was looking for that breath again, when he saw Zhang Hao flying to the top of the mountain, Zhao Wuxian stared at Zhang Hao intently.
I saw Zhang Hao stunned and looked at the clouds less than two meters away from him, and opened his mouth slightly, "What are you stunned, run the exercises and absorb them quickly." Wushan's voice sounded again,
Zhang Hao came back to his senses, crossed his knees on the top of the mountain, and operated the Qingyun Heaven and Earth and the Flood Desolation Alchemy, absorbing nearly thousands of miles of clouds, and the clouds entered Zhang Hao's body like a river pouring back.
Zhao Wuxian looked around suspiciously, but did not find anything unusual, and was still very vigilant to protect Zhang Hao.
Zhang Hao's body was completely covered by clouds, and the golden pill that constantly entered Zhang Hao's body and then flowed into the dantian, part of it was to polish Zhang Hao's skin, bones, and internal organs, Zhang Hao's skin completely turned bronze, and the bones slowly appeared metallic.
Three days later.
The aura cloud was completely absorbed by Zhang Hao, and his whole body emitted golden light, Zhang Hao roared, like a tiger's roar, and a powerful aura burst out from his body.
After absorbing so much aura, Zhang Hao's cultivation actually reached the fifth layer of Jindan, and when he stepped into the middle stage of Jindan, his body also reached the iron bone entry. In other words, the current Zhang Hao's strength has increased greatly. Zhang Hao is confident that he will not be able to meet opponents below Yuan Ying.
Zhao Wuxian looked at Zhang Hao, who was happy in front of him, and was also happy.
Zhang Hao flew down from the mountain and said to Zhao Wuxian, "Thank you Grandpa for protecting Lingyun." ”
Zhao Wuxian stroked his beard and said, "Silly boy, what is polite to grandpa." ”
"Hehe" Zhang Hao smirked: "Grandpa, Lingyun is now married and wants to practice in the lower realm." ”
"Huh?" Zhao Wuxian frowned and said, "What are you doing in the Netherworld, if something happens to you, we won't be able to reach it." ”
"Grandpa, Lingyun can't stay in Qingyun Sect all his life, he always has to go out, if he has been in Qingyun Sect, his growth will be very slow, and Grandpa doesn't want to see Lingyun become a gentleman. Zhang Hao said.
"This is also the case, but what if there is danger. Zhao Wuxian hesitated.
"Grandpa, we immortal cultivators are already competing with heaven and earth, fighting with people, if we are afraid of danger, how can we become strong and how to become immortals. Besides, Ling Yun's revenge has not yet been avenged. Zhang Hao said solemnly.
"This--" Zhao Wuxian said with hesitation, "Let's go back to the sect and discuss it with everyone first." ”
Zhang Hao showed joy and clenched his fists: "Yes!"
An old man and a young man accompanied each other to Qingyun Sect.
