Chapter 4: "Seven Souls"
The old man was obviously stunned for a moment before he came back to his senses, his gaze was directly withdrawn from Xiao Baiwu, and when he looked at Han Yang again, a shadowless and invisible force suddenly spread out from his body. This invisible power disappeared after only sweeping away from him, but it made the old man who had seen through Han Yang's inner face show a sense of surprise on his face.
"How can this son's soul root be so pure!"
Could it be... Is he the person the pavilion master is waiting for?" The old man was very deep, what did he think in his heart, but the expression on his face was only fleeting, and before Han Yang could see it, he had already changed his expression and spoke first.
"Your soul roots are mediocre, and your qualifications are quite weak, if you want to enter the soul to cultivate, I'm afraid that even a little elk can kill you. After saying that, his face showed contempt and disdain, but in fact, he was impetuous and impetuous when he saw Han Yang's behavior, and he wanted to suppress his arrogance.
"You old man, what are you muttering about?" Han Yang knew what soul root and what qualifications he knew, and he shouted most directly.
The old man was stunned for a moment, his face showed a hint of suspicion, but the tips of his fingers behind his back were quickly clicked a few times, and after a while, he seemed to realize something.
"It turned out to be a mortal in the Nether, no wonder he couldn't move his soul cultivation. As if he remembered something, he turned around with a look of remembrance on his face, and when he looked at the towering seven peaks, tears flashed in the corners of his eyes, and he said secretly: "Maybe it's the will of heaven." ”
After a pause, he continued without looking back, and said, "This realm is the 'Rakshasa Soul Land'! It is quite similar to the place where mortals in the lower realm such as you and others often say about cultivating immortals, but cultivating souls is completely different from what mortals say about cultivating immortals, and it cannot be explained in a few words.
As for what the old man just said, it is naturally the soul root of soul cultivation in this realm, that is, the foundation of cultivation, and the qualifications do not need me to say more. ”
"What you mean is that the soul root determines the limitations of the future development of the soul cultivator, and the qualification means that I am stupid, right? Han Yang's mind turned, and he seemed to understand what the old man meant.
That can also be understood in this way.
So apart from this place, you'd better not go out, otherwise the lowest-level demon beast may be able to kill you easily. The old man nodded undeniably, obviously still appreciating Han Yang's understanding.
"My soul root is poor, and my qualifications are mediocre... If you go out, you might as well be easily killed, so you might as well send me back. Han Yang blinked his eyes and said undeniably.
"Go back?" The old man was obviously stunned for a moment, he thought that under such ridicule, he would be restrained and diligent, studious, and hardworking, but he didn't expect him to say such a sentence, and his face suddenly sank, and he secretly thought: "With such a talent and no knowledge of progress, wouldn't it be in vain to waste the pure soul root?"
"That's right, I want a soul root without a soul root, if I want qualifications or not, if you don't send me back, what will I do?
Is it possible that I want to send you a hundred years away!" Han Yang pouted.
When the old man heard what he said, he suddenly felt his blood surge, and he couldn't wait to slap this unsuccessful little baby.
"A hundred years to get old?" haha, the old man is over three hundred years old, and he needs you to send him a hundred years? It's really ridiculous! Ignorance!" the old man flicked his sleeves and said indignantly.
"Three hundred years old!" Han Yang's eyes widened and he carefully looked at the old man, recalling the news he had read a few days ago - 'China's oldest longevity village, the two-hundred-year-old man is still alive but has been lying for sixty years!'
"But that's only a two-hundred-year-old long-lived old man, and this person can still stand at the age of three hundred! Could it be that this is the legendary cultivation of immortals?"
"Hmph, ignorant child.
To tell you the truth, if it weren't for the Pavilion Master's spirit talisman guidance, I would have expelled you with your soul root qualifications, where would you still have the right to say more!
But since you can have the fate to get the pavilion master's spirit rune, it is also the will of heaven.
I'll make an exception to give you a year, if you can't enter the soul and achieve the soul realm within a year, then don't blame the old man for ruthlessly sending you to fend for yourself. The old man said flatly.
"Into the soul?" This unfamiliar word echoed in Han Yang's mind, and it actually made him fall into a beautiful fantasy; soul entry equals cultivation, cultivation equals immortality, and immortality equals stable happiness!
"Soul cultivation is simply a new national policy with multiple benefits, how can this great thing be missed!" Han Yang said secretly.
"Okay, since you can't send me back, then I'll stay and cultivate my soul. Han Yang smiled brightly at the sun.
"Hmph, I advise you not to be happy too early, the way of soul cultivation is broad and profound, those who can enter the soul within a year are all talented and pure soul roots, with your qualifications, it will be difficult to enter the soul within three years, by then... Hum. The old man scoffed.
"Three years?" Han Yang gasped, his face showed embarrassment, and after glancing at the old man's thousand-year-old zombie face, he didn't expect him to give himself more time.
"One year at a time!
But before cultivating my soul, you have to show me the way, and you can't let me just go to cultivation empty-handed. Han Yang spread his hands.
"Naturally, you don't need to worry, the soul cultivation method will be given to you in a while, but I remind you that with your qualifications, it's best not to be too eager for quick success, otherwise once you go mad, don't say I didn't tell you at that time." ”
"Got it. Han Yang pouted and responded angrily, and made a grimace directly behind the old man's back: "Poor qualifications, poor qualifications, I Han Shen seems to be very stupid." ”
"One more thing, I'm going to tell you. The old man's voice suddenly became a little lower.
"You say. Han Yang's strange face instantly converged, and he didn't care.
"You'd better not make small movements behind me in the future, I can see it!" the old man turned around as he spoke, and swept around Han Yang's body with a faint look, giving people a chilling feeling.
"Oh. Got it. Han Yang replied embarrassedly, but secretly rolled his eyes in his heart.
"Now... I will pass on the exercises to you. The old man couldn't help but speak, stepped in front of Han Yang, and pointed a finger towards his eyebrows without warning.
Han Yang subconsciously wanted to dodge but it was too late, he heard a 'boom' buzz in his mind, and then a series of mysterious and incomparably mysterious information flowed into his mind like a spring, and at the same time, a painful feeling as if his brain was cramping also swept through his mind in an instant, making people howl unbearably!
The sound of "bang" sounding when the message delivery was completed, Han Yang only felt that it was dark in front of him, and he completely passed out.
"Hopefully, you are the son of the inheritance that the pavilion master is waiting for!" After the old man finished transmitting the exercises, he stumbled in his steps, obviously his mind was exhausted, and he was also a little unable to get up.
A few days later......
In the stone chamber of one of the seven towering mountain peaks, Han Yang hissed and rubbed his temples in pain at this moment, and as soon as he opened his eyes, he saw Han Xiaoshi lying on his chest and looking at him without blinking.
"Wow, how much stuff has this old man poured into my head, how do I feel more than the hundreds of millions of online articles I read. Han Yang kept rubbing his temples while trying to stand up, but it took a long time for him to stagger to stand up.
When he walked to the stone table, the small stone jumped down from him first, but he saw a note and a porcelain vase on the stone table.
The note reads: "There are three elixirs in this bottle, and after taking it, you can open the soul root, and then cultivate according to the previous "Seven Souls Xuanming" exercises, once the soul power is triggered, you can absorb the spirit of heaven and earth to nourish the soul root and enhance the soul power." ”
"This old man is really worry-free. After muttering a word, Han Yang directly picked up the porcelain bottle and sent the three pills to his mouth in one go.
With a "swish", the spiritual power that the elixir turned into directly at the entrance rippled like water waves, and after entering the body like a clear spring, it instantly dispersed, flowed through the limbs and hundreds of remains, and finally converged to the soul position where the left hip bone was a little higher!
"Whew!" Han Yang gently exhaled a breath of turbidity, only to feel that after the soul root was opened, the whole person was a little lighter, that is, his mind was much clearer, and some things that he had forgotten before could easily be recalled at this moment. Anyway, in general, my waist doesn't hurt anymore, my legs don't hurt anymore, and my whole body is comfortable.
"The soul root is open, it's really different!" Han Yang couldn't help jumping up excitedly, with a happy smile on his face, and then seeing that Han Xiaoshi was also laughing with him at this moment, his eyes were laughing like crescent moons.
"Little stone, don't worry, my brother is now a soul cultivator, it won't take a year, as long as we enter the soul, we will both be safe.
You stay here obediently, I'll go to cultivate first. Han Yang stroked the little stone's head, which was already different from the first time, and nodded obediently, and after flying around him with a "sigh", he landed on the stone table and lay on his stomach, looking at him obediently.
Han Yang smiled with relief, the spirit of the whole person instantly cheered up, he walked back to the stone paved in three steps and two steps, and began to meditate on the exercises that the old man had instilled in him before.
"Seven Souls"
The information of the Dao Dao Mysteries appeared in Han Yang's mind in an instant, and soon a complete page of exercises was gathered.
"The soul is the spirit of heaven and earth, all things are born together, the soul leads the soul, and the way of cultivating heaven and earth is also ......" After pondering this page of exercises countless times, a trace of spiritual light suddenly exploded in his mind, and his soul power was also restless in the soul position from time to time. Han Yang couldn't wait to follow the instructions of the exercises, trying to induce soul power to cultivate, but after several failed attempts, he frowned.
"It's weird. Why doesn't it work?" Han Yang, who was already covered in sweat at this moment, slowly opened his eyes, and after wiping the sweat from his forehead with his sleeve, his brows frowned a little tighter.
After resting for a while, Han Yang did not forget what the old man said (the words that if he did not enter the soul for a year, he would be expelled), looked at the small stone that was playing with his fingers on the stone table, and suddenly became energetic, and started his soul cultivation path again.
A whole day passed......
"It's finally successful!" Han Yang forgot to sleep and eat until it was dark, and he successfully mobilized a trace of soul power to run Zhou Tian.
"After this step, the next step is to use the running soul power to attract the spiritual power of heaven and earth to cultivate. ”
Unconsciously, time passed quickly, and Han Yang couldn't help but wonder: "I have been practicing all day but I don't feel hungry, is it because I have eaten the elixir?" Looking at the night sky outside the stone room, if he didn't eat at this time in the past, he would be hungry and faint, but now he doesn't feel hungry at all, he only feels fresh.
"Xiaoshi, are you hungry?" Han Yang called softly, but Han Xiaoshi, who had already fallen asleep on the stone table, did not respond to him.
|“ But if a small stone is a stone, you might not be hungry. ”
After saying that, he had no worries, and started the second step of soul cultivation - attracting the spiritual power of heaven and earth.
The second page of the "soul is the spirit, the spirit is the soul, the spirit moves, the soul also moves, so the ...... of the introduction" exercise begins to explain the method of attracting the aura of heaven and earth, in which the mystic is more than ten times more difficult than the previous one to attract the soul power in the body.
Han Yang, who has just entered the soul cultivation, can only learn like a half-hanger, and even some rare words about soul cultivation do not understand, but he can only stubbornly practice the luck methods mentioned in the exercises as well, but even so, he still lacks a trace of aura.
In the blink of an eye, the night passed, and Han Yang was a sleepless penance, but the progress was not very smooth.
In the early morning, a ray of sunlight shone in from outside the door and fell on the small snow-white stone, only to make it roll over warmly, and its eyelids trembled a few times before it opened its eyes.
"Little stone, are you hungry?" At this time, Han Yang had already walked up to it and gently stroked its soft little head like a marshmallow with his hand.
"Nope. It replied.
It was also at this time that a paper crane with a lunch box in his mouth flew in outside the door, hovering directly in front of Han Yang, and even after he took the lunch box, it dissipated by itself, revealing a few lines of big characters.
"Take care of the meal for a day, and solve it by yourself in the future!" Don't think about it, this is naturally a boxed lunch sent by the old man, as for the ruthless self-solution, Han Yang didn't care very much.
"As long as you practice the exercises well, are you still worried that you won't be able to eat? Hmph. ”
