Chapter 49, Cultivation is Lost
The steward cleared his throat and said, "Seven Star Sword, the starting price is 700,000 taels, and now the bidding will begin." β
After the steward finished reporting the price, everyone was at a loss, and then they were helpless. In the Dayue Dynasty, although the royal family is more enlightened, it is impossible for the royal family to give a spiritual weapon like the Seven Star Sword to others, and everyone's financial resources are not as good as the royal family, and in the end, only Dongfang Ming's voice came out of the private room: "One million, others don't compete with me, but I don't want you to suffer." β
In the end, the ownership of the seven-star sword is the royal family, everyone has no opinion, everyone has the intention of coming to see, and the auction house knows the situation they will face when they take out the seven-star sword for auction, and it is precisely because they think about this clearly that the price of the seven-star sword is set at 700,000.
After the seven-star sword was sent to Dongfang Ming's hands, everyone left the auction house one after another, and there were originally some nobles who wanted to get closer to appreciate the seven-star sword, but when they saw that the people around Dongfang Ming looked like they were facing a great enemy, they also dispersed one after another.
Out of the gate of the auction house, Ji Fengtian and the four of them said goodbye to Ji Lingyun and continued to walk around the city, on the way, Dongfang Saiyu told Ji Fengtian and Zhuge Qingming some things about the Intermediate Academy, and asked the two to be careful, it was getting dark, and the four of them went back separately.
Back at home, Ji Fengtian has been thinking about how to break through the innate nature, and he doesn't know how to cultivate next, so he asked his father, Ji Fengtian only has this choice.
Finding Ji Lingyun who was reading a book in the study, Ji Fengtian asked, "Father, what is the difference between a martial artist and an innate?"
"The elemental power of an innate martial artist is stored in the dantian, and the elemental power of an ordinary martial artist is only wandering in the meridians of the whole body. Ji Lingyun replied, then looked at Ji Fengtian with a glint in his eyes and asked, "Tian'er, are you a martial artist now?"
"Yes, I have already reached the Martial Consummation when I was training in Daqingshan, but now I feel that the elemental power absorbed by my body is saturated and I can't continue to absorb it, so I came to ask you. Ji Fengtian said.
Although he had only thought of it before, but now that he heard Ji Fengtian admit it himself, Ji Lingyun was still very excited in his heart, after all, it was possible to add an innate martial artist to his family, and he was less than seven years old.
"Uh... Father, why are you looking at me like this?" Ji Fengtian said.
"Nothing. Ji Lingyun's gaze returned to normal and said: "A martial artist needs to break through the innate need to break through the Broken Heaven Acupoint in his body, open the dantian with the veins, activate the internal space of the dantian, and form an overall circulation system in order to continue cultivating." Ji Lingyun said.
"Broken Heaven Acupoint?" Ji Fengtian said puzzled.
"This Broken Heaven Acupoint is a threshold to block martial artists from entering the heavens, if they break through, they will enter the innate realm, if they don't break through, they are just ordinary martial artists. You can sense it yourself now and see if you can find it. β
Ji Fengtian slowly sat down, operating the elemental power in his body, carefully sensing the Broken Heaven Acupoint that Ji Lingyun said, for a long time, Ji Fengtian felt as if there was a wall on his lower abdomen that was blocking the flow of elemental power, and tried to impact with the power of the element, as time passed, the feeling of blockage was washed away by the power of the element, and Ji Fengtian instantly felt that his body was a little lighter, and it was the Broken Heaven Acupoint that was broken.
At this time, Ji Fengtian felt that the excess elemental power in his meridians was like a flood that opened the floodgates, pouring down towards the broken position, and did not stop until the excess elemental power in his body flowed into the dantian.
"Father, have I broken through to the innate level? Ji Fengtian asked.
Ji Lingyun was suddenly stunned, stretched out his big hand, grabbed Ji Fengtian's wrist, injected a trace of elemental power into his body, sensed it, and showed an excited look in his eyes.
Letting go of Ji Fengtian's hand, Ji Lingyun said, "Yes, Tian'er, you have indeed entered the innate realm. It's really more popular than people, I think it took me seven days to find the Broken Heaven Acupoint, and it took three days to break through the Acupoint, and you have it all this afternoon. β
"Hiss~" Ji Fengtian suddenly felt that the elemental power in the meridians of his body was rapidly surging towards the dantian.
"What's wrong?" Ji Lingyun asked.
"Father, why can't I mobilize the elemental power in my body?" asked Ji Fengtian.
"Can't be mobilized?" Ji Lingyun was also puzzled, and released a wisp of elemental power into Ji Fengtian's body, but to Ji Lingyun's surprise, after the elemental power entered Ji Fengtian's body, he cut off contact with himself, Ji Lingyun didn't believe in evil, and released another elemental power, just like just now, Ji Lingyun once again lost contact with the elemental power he released.
Ji Lingyun's face also became heavy, this situation was also the first time he had seen it, and he comforted Ji Fengtian with a few words, Ji Lingyun began to think about it, but there were no clues.
Ji Fengtian, who was sitting next to him, saw Ji Lingyun's expression, and knew that he might really have something wrong this time. Ji Fengtian ran the basic technique, and first entered the body with the power of the elements around him. At this time, Ji Fengtian could clearly feel that the elemental energy entered the body and then circulated in the body for a week, flowing into the dantian. Ji Fengtian could clearly feel the elemental energy in the dantian, but he couldn't mobilize it. This feeling is like giving a person a mountain of gold, but the mountain of gold is a whole, you can't take it, and you can't break it.
Opening his eyes and looking at Ji Lingyun's tightly knit brows, Ji Fengtian persuaded: "Father, don't worry, after all, the power of the elements still exists, it's a big deal to cultivate well in the future." β
Hearing Ji Fengtian's words, Ji Lingyun felt very guilty in his heart, if it was because of his own reasons, he would definitely not forgive himself.
"Father, I don't think there's anything wrong with me, it should be because there is too little elemental power in the dantian. Ji Fengtian said.
Ji Lingyun looked at his son, not knowing what it was like.
"Don't worry, Tian'er, if you look for the whole dynasty for your father, you will also find someone to show you well. Ji Lingyun said, turned around and walked outside.
"Could it be that you are wasted?" Ji Fengtian sat on the ground and muttered, suddenly, thinking of Ji Lingyun's decision before going out, Ji Fengtian instantly sobered up, no, he couldn't let his father worry anymore, and then chased towards Ji Lingyun.
At this time, Ji Lingyun had just stepped onto the white wolf and was about to go to the palace to find the imperial doctor, seeing Ji Fengtian coming, Ji Lingyun said: "Don't worry, son, father will definitely let you recover." β
"No need, father. I can still absorb the power of the elements now, it's not that my cultivation has been lost, I think maybe my cultivation method is different from yours. Although I can't mobilize the power of the elements now, I can refine my body!" Ji Fengtian stopped in front of Ji Lingyun and said.
"If you go to the palace now to ask the imperial doctor, after the imperial doctor examines me, Dongfang Ming will know about my cultivation, and it may bring unnecessary trouble to my Ji family at that time. Ji Fengtian said again.
Ji Lingyun thought for a while and said: "Let's find the imperial doctor to take a look, before my elemental power entered your body, I would lose contact, I believe that other people's should be the same, let the imperial doctor check if there is something wrong with your body." β
Ji Lingyun still insisted on his own ideas, as long as his son could recover, it didn't matter if he tore his face with the Dongfang family.
Bypassing Ji Fengtian, Ji Lingyun rode the white wolf and galloped towards the direction of the palace. Although the Ji family was not close to the palace, under the speed of the white wolf, they still arrived at the palace very quickly.
Ji Lingyun rode the white wolf directly into the palace, didn't get off the white wolf, and hurriedly said a word to Dongfang Ming, grabbed the best imperial doctor in the palace and put it on the white wolf's back, and ran towards his home.
Seeing Ji Lingyun's attitude, Dongfang knew that this matter was not simple, so he decided to go and see it himself.
"Come on, I'm going to Ji's house, and by the way, I'll send someone to inform Prime Minister Zhuge and tell him about Ji Fengtian's cultivation, and let him go too. β
"Father, what's wrong with Brother Fengtian?" Just as Dongfang Ming was about to go out, a female voice came, Dongfang Ming looked back, Dongfang Yue walked out from behind, and Dongfang Saiyu was followed behind him.
"It just so happens that you will go with me. Then he took the two of them into a carriage and hurried towards the Ji family.
After Zhuge Yun received Dongfang Ming's information, he also took Zhuge Qingming to the Ji family.
Besides, Ji Lingyun grabbed the imperial doctor and came to the Ji Mansion, jumped off the white wolf, grabbed the imperial doctor and rushed into Ji Fengtian's room.
Although the poor imperial doctor is not very old, he can't stand Ji Lingyun's grasping himself like a chicken, and he was dizzy and dizzy by the white wolf along the way, and before he could get used to it, he was caught by a big hand.
Standing on the ground stunned, the imperial doctor asked, "Where is this?"
"Imperial Doctor Zhang, don't ask where it is, hurry up and see what's wrong with Tian'er. Ji Lingyun's anxious voice sounded behind Imperial Doctor Zhang.
Imperial Doctor Zhang came back to his senses at this time, looked at Ji Fengtian who was standing on the side and said, "Stretch out your left hand." β
Ji Fengtian stretched out his left hand, and Imperial Doctor Zhang put his hand on Ji Fengtian's wrist. After a long time, Ji Fengtian's room was opened, Dongfang Ming and Zhuge Yun arrived, they came to Ji Fengtian's bed, looked at Imperial Doctor Zhang, and waited for an answer.
Just when everyone was waiting impatiently, Imperial Doctor Zhang spoke: "General Ji, there is nothing wrong with the little general's body, the qi and blood are vigorous, and the meridians are smooth. β
"In that case, why is he suddenly unable to mobilize the power of the elements now?"
The imperial doctor tried to inject the elemental power into Ji Fengtian's body, but found that the elemental power in Ji Fengtian's body was empty, and he was speechless.
"The little general has no elemental energy in his body. β
"I know no, do you know what's going on?" Ji Lingyun said impatiently.
"I'm sorry, general, my subordinates are stupid and can't see what's going on. Imperial Doctor Zhang smiled bitterly.
"Forget it, father, if you can't cultivate, don't cultivate, at least I can stay by your side and my mother safely. Ji Fengtian said.
"Boss, you... Zhuge Qingming wanted to speak, but he didn't know what to say.
"It's okay, Qingming, my brother will rely on you to protect me in the future. Ji Fengtian said with a smile.
"Feng Tianxian nephew, don't worry, even if you are just an ordinary person, the royal family will not treat you badly. Dongfang Ming said.
"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness"
Just when everyone was comforting Ji Fengtian, in the shadow of the courtyard, a figure appeared, muttering in his mouth: "Stinky boy, let you let that refining body out, now it's up to you what you do." I really don't know what Senior Brother thinks, let me send the Body Refining Decision and don't worry about it, although you kid has a very good appetite for me, but I can't help but listen to Senior Brother's words, how is this good. β
Just as the black shadow was muttering, a figure appeared beside the black shadow and said, "Senior brother is too scheming, not a good person, and he is too strict." β
"That's right, the senior brother is too scheming, too wide, and too annoying. The black shadow said, and then felt that something was wrong, and turned his head to look: "Hehehehe, third senior sister, when did you come?"
"It doesn't matter when I came, what matters is the memory jade slip in my hand. The woman said, waving a piece of white jade in her hand.
"Third Senior Sister, I was wrong! Please don't tell Senior Brother. The black shadow saw the white jade slip in the woman's hand, and said with a sad face.
"Then it's up to you. The woman smiled slyly.
Looking at the woman's expression, the black shadow couldn't help but shudder, and asked cautiously, "Does the third senior sister take a fancy to me?"
"What's your thingβis there anything good you covet?" the woman pouted.
"And what are you going to do?"
"In this way, I have developed a new drug, your body is invulnerable, just help me try it and see what it does." The woman said casually.
"Third Senior Sister, let me go... Although it is not invaded by a hundred poisons, but last time... The shadow said with a sad face.
"What was it last time? Do you want me to give the jade slip to Senior Brother?" the woman looked at the black shadow with her eyes pricked up.
"Okay, okay, I promise you can't. The black shadow said unwillingly.
"Shall we go in and see the little brother?" said the woman.
"Senior brother let us go back, it's not good that we've been here for a long time. Dark Shadow said.
"Senior brother is far away in the land of chaos, he won't come to ask us, let's go in and take a look, and leave after reading. The woman took a step towards Ji Fengtian's room.
"Wait for me, Third Senior Sister. The black shadow also followed the woman towards the house, and the two walked to Ji Fengtian's side, looked left and right, and the woman also reached out curiously and pinched Ji Fengtian's face.
However, the strange thing was that Ji Fengtian and the others were still standing in place and talking, but no one saw these two people, and even Ji Fengtian didn't feel that his face was pinched.
"Ahem, ahem, ahem!" A coughing sound came into the ears of the two, but Ji Lingyun and the others didn't notice it at all.
Hearing this cough, the woman and the black shadow's bodies instantly became stiff, and they slowly turned around and saw a man wearing a white robe, wearing a high crown, sword eyebrows and starry eyes, as if the sun, moon and stars were circulating in his eyes, holding a ring ruler in his hand, and there was a little blood on his clothes.
When they saw the blood stains on the man's body, the woman and the black shadow instantly came to the man's side and asked with concern, "Senior brother, what's wrong with you?"
"The Heavenly Dao Chains sensed your presence and wanted to intercept you. The man coughed twice.
"Let's hurry up, don't let Tiandao find out about the little junior brother, otherwise, we will harm the little junior brother. The man said.
"Senior brother, we were wrong, please punish us. The woman bowed her head and said.
"Let's go back and talk about it, let's go!" The man flicked his sleeves, and the figures of the three disappeared in an instant.
The arrival and departure of the three of them did not attract anyone's attention, only Ji Fengtian faintly felt as if a few people who were very important to him had come.
"Feng Tianxian's nephew, you should have a good rest first, if you feel unwell, go directly to the palace to find Imperial Doctor Zhang. Dongfang Ming said a word, and he was about to leave with Dongfang Saitama and Dongfang Yue.
"Father, I think, I want to accompany Brother Fengtian here. Dongfang Yue's voice sounded in everyone's ears.
"Father, the emperor, and the sons are also here to accompany the Fengtian brothers. Dongfang Saitama said.
"Hehe, okay, you young people are together, enlighten Fengtian well. Dongfang Ming was stunned for a moment when he heard the voices of Dongfang Yue and Dongfang Saitama, and then said a word with a smile and left.
"Old man, you should go back first, I want to accompany the little emperor here. Zhuge Qingming said.
"Stinky boy, no big or small, I won't pick your skin when I look back. Zhuge Yun left angrily.
Ji Lingyun saw so many people accompanying his son, and he didn't know what to say, so he simply went back.
"Father, don't let your mother know about this. Ji Fengtian said.
Ji Lingyun was stunned for a moment, then nodded and left.
"Brother Fengtian, don't be sad, you can't cultivate, and what about us, we will protect you. Dongfang Yue said.
"That's it, little Tianzi, with me, whoever dares to bully you will step over my corpse. Zhuge Qingming said.
When Zhuge Qingming's words fell, Dongfang Yue and Dongfang Saiyu were also very moved, although they didn't say it to them, but it can be seen that Zhuge Qingming's words were serious, if someone really wanted to deal with Ji Fengtian, Zhuge Qingming would be the first to stand up, no matter who it was, even if it was himself, the prince.
Dongfang Saitama looked at the two, and he was also very yearning for this kind of friendship.
"Brother Fengtian, I don't dare to promise anything, but I can promise you that if I can inherit the throne, I will protect the Ji family forever. Dongfang Saitama said.
"Thank you, Your Royal Highness the Crown Prince, for your kindness. Ji Fengtian said.
"Little Tianzi, have you been defeated? I know you, you are always light and breezy, you will not be angry or depressed because of anything, wake up, we still have a long way to go, we still have to see the scenery outside, have you forgotten the promise between brothers?" Zhuge Qingming grabbed Ji Fengtian's shoulder and said.
"Brother Fengtian, when I saw that you could play the piano today, I prepared one for you, and now I brought it to you. Dongfang Yue asked the maid behind her to send her guqin that she had prepared for Ji Fengtian in advance.
Taking out the guqin and putting it on the table, Dongfang Yueyu's fingers played briskly on the strings, and a burst of beautiful music sounded in Ji Fengtian's room.
