Chapter Fifty-Eight: The Legend of the Reckless
"Thank you for saving me. Zhantai Qiantang didn't get angry in the face of Lin Xi's disdain, but smiled, but saluted Lin Xi sincerely, and said, "But why did you save me?
"There are two reasons for this. ”
Lin Xi skimmed the images of Tang Seng and Senior Brother, Second Senior Brother, and Senior Brother Sha from his mind, looked at Zhantai Qiantang, and said without concealment: "Those three Yunqin children are one of the reasons, if you don't make a move that day, I will make a move, which will cause a lot of trouble, and even completely disrupt some of my plans." ”
Zhantai Qiantang didn't ask the deep reason, smiled slightly, and said: "It turns out that you were also present that day, so what is the other reason? Is it because you have a big holiday with Wenren Cangyue?"
"Since you have already felt it, how can it be just a holiday?" Lin Xi nodded: "He is our common enemy. ”
"You don't look like a cultivator in the Yunqin Dynasty, Wenren Cangyue's status is extremely high, and ordinary cultivators won't have direct grievances with him at all. Zhantai Qiantang looked at Lin Xi and asked seriously, "Who are you?"
Lin Xi pondered slightly, and said, "My name is Lin Xi, and I am a student of Qingluan Academy. ”
Zhantai Qiantang was stunned, and there was an inexplicable look in his eyes, "You are the Qingluan Academy Lin Xi who killed Gongsun Quan and Qin Qinghuang?"
Lin Xi nodded.
Zhantai Qiantang looked at Lin Xi with some emotion and said, "Among the young people of Yunqin, there is no one more famous than you this year. ”
Lin Xi raised his eyebrows slightly, looked at the emotional Zhantai Qiantang, and said, "If you don't mind, shouldn't we talk while walking?"
Zhantai Qiantang said very sincerely: "If you don't mind carrying me for a while, of course we can talk while walking." ”
Lin Xi suddenly felt that he was a bit like a white dragon horse at the moment.
"It's just that Tang Seng was the dirtiest when he was the dirtiest, and he was cleaner than you are now. When he was carrying Zhantai Qiantang, Lin Xi couldn't help muttering.
Zhantai Qiantang was a little forgiving, and humbly asked: "I just heard you say that I am like Tang Seng, who is Tang Seng?"
"A monk who is so kind that there is no distinction between good and bad. Lin Xi began to walk briskly as he explained: "It's the kind of indiscriminate kind of person who wants to eat your flesh, but you can't bear to kill the other party and want to give the other party a way out." ”
Zhantai Qiantang couldn't help but laugh and said: "Actually, I'm not such an indiscriminate person, I just think that the more respectable the opponent, the less often a bad person." ”
Lin Xi sneered, "But you are not an ordinary civilian, I think you should at least be more careful than others." ”
"It's not what you think. ”
Zhantai Qiantang shook his head and said, "Or maybe my situation is worse than you think." In fact, I have almost nothing, some of the forces left by my teacher have lost on the way to let me escape to Yunqin, although Da Mang still has some people who are loyal to my teacher, but unless I can have the power to protect them, no one will stand up... So before I came to Zhongzhou City in Yunqin, I was already alone, so I didn't know what to do in Zhongzhou City, and I was in a daze for a long time. There is not much difference between me and an ordinary exile. ”
Lin Xi didn't speak for a while, just looked down at the road and thought about things.
Zhantai Qiantang was not as verbose as the Tang monk Lin Xi said, but he felt that it was impossible for Lin Xi to be so quick to have nothing to say and no questions to ask, so he couldn't help but say, "What are you thinking." ”
"I'm thinking, since you have nothing, no use value at all, should I just throw you into the river, and then I'll leave. Lin Xi turned his head, looked at Zhantai Qiantang and said this.
Zhantai Qiantang was stunned for a moment, and couldn't help laughing, laughing loudly, laughing so loudly that he coughed.
Of course he knew that Lin Xi's sentence was just a joke, although from the beginning to the present, because of the fact that Zhen Kuai could not be let go, after Lin Xi had some disputes with him, he was not polite to him, but he was more and more appreciative and liked the love-hate distinction between this Qingluan Academy student and some of the temperaments that he felt.
"What kind of impact does this kind of magical transformation in Purgatory Mountain have on cultivators after it is cast?" Lin Xi squinted at Zhantai Qiantang, who was laughing nonstop, and asked.
Zhantai Qiantang's laughter gradually stopped, and he said seriously: "It will be very weak, and a cultivator will not eat for fifteen days, plus the same weakness as a serious illness, at least it will take more than a month to recuperate, so that it can slowly recover." ”
Lin Xi said: "In other words, even if the cultivators after the demon transformation are not injured, they will not have the strength to fight again for at least a month or so?"
Zhantai Qiantang nodded and said, "That's true." ”
Lin Xi said directly: "Can you pass on the cultivation method of demon transformation to me?"
Zhantai Qiantang was stunned for a moment, and then couldn't help laughing loudly.
"Don't laugh. Lin Xi said: "Don't you think this is a very serious question... Also, don't you think it's ridiculous that a charred Tang monk like you is lying on a person's back and laughing so unscrupulously?"
Zhantai Qiantang laughed even louder, laughing almost breathlessly: "Could it be that the students of Qingluan Academy, every one of them is as interesting as you... Is it so straightforward?"
"Not really. Lin Xi shook his head and said, "It's just that not every Qingluan Academy student has such an opportunity to save a cultivator who understands demonic transformation. In the past, when the students of our Qingluan Academy and the cultivators who practiced demonic transformation met, they only had to die either you or me. ”
"You have a point. Zhantai Qiantang was stunned, thinking of the identity of the two sides as world enemies, he couldn't help but sigh with some emotion, "Actually, it's not that I can't tell you the cultivation method of this demonic transformation... The point is that even if you are told the cultivation method of this demonic transformation, it is useless at all, and neither you nor any of Yun Qin's cultivators will be able to cultivate at all. ”
Lin Xi turned his head slightly and said, "Why?"
Zhantai Qiantang did not sell Guanzi, and explained calmly: "Because of the magic transformation in Purgatory Mountain, it sounds terrifying and looks terrifying, but the principle is just a means to stimulate the human body with drugs and let the potential of the human body burst out at once." It's just that the medicine is more special, it won't let the practitioner's body explode directly and die, it can exist in the practitioner's body for a long time, transforming the cultivator's blood. ”
Lin Xi frowned, "Is it to use the domineering medicine and blood fusion to exchange blood?"
"Exactly. Zhantai Qiantang nodded and became serious, "So if you want to practice demonic transformation, not only must the cultivator's body be able to resist the many adverse reactions of drugs when transforming the body, but most importantly, there must also be a unique demonic transformation medicine in Purgatory Mountain." ”
After a slight pause, Zhantai Qiantang continued: "The medicine of the Demon Transformation is made from the Heavenly Demon Essence of Purgatory Mountain, and the Heavenly Demon Essence is said to grow on a unique plant in the forbidden land of Purgatory Mountain. I haven't seen anything specific about what kind of demon essence it was that day, except for some of the highest-ranking figures in Purgatory Mountain, no one has seen it. I was able to practice demonic transformation, and it was only through some means that my teacher obtained the medicine of demonic transformation in my early years. The medicine of this demonic transformation is extremely rare in Purgatory Mountain, and among the hundred disciples of Purgatory Mountain, only a few people can be allowed to practice demonic transformation at most, and among these people, at least half of them have their bodies and medicinal power in conflict, and they cannot succeed in cultivating. Or they can't withstand the first demonic transformation and die of exhaustion. ”
Lin Xi thought for a while and said, "Since there is no way to practice without the medicine of demonic transformation, it doesn't matter if you tell me, then tell me." ”
Zhantai Qiantang couldn't help but laugh again, "You are really persevering enough." ”
Lin Xi was noncommittal.
Zhantai Qiantang nodded, "Okay, I'll write it down for you." ”
"Thank you. Lin Xi thanked him seriously.
Zhantai Qiantang understood what kind of emotions Lin Xi's seriousness came from in his heart, he hesitated for a moment and asked: "Because of the death of the crown prince's eldest grandson Wujiang, your Yunqin Emperor said in the palace that he would put you to death, and you will become even more famous... I later heard that it was the side of Da Mang who opposed my teacher, and there was a Da Mang's hidden action that caused you to be severely injured, and there was a Qingluan student who saved you and died?"
Lin Xi was silent for a moment and nodded, "That's my friend... And the prince you're talking about is also my friend. ”
Zhantai Qiantang understood better, looked at Lin Xi's side face, and said: "Actually, the demon transformation can't last, even if he learns, when facing an opponent like Wenren Cangyue, he will definitely find a way to delay until the time of the demon transformation has passed, unless the cultivation itself is already similar to him, under the demon transformation, it is possible to kill him at once... It's just that the cultivation can be almost reached, and there is no need to rely on the magic transformation at that time. However, according to some judgments of Master Li Ku through ancient books, the magic transformation of Purgatory Mountain is only a fragment, and in this world, it is said that there have been higher-end magic changes. ”
"A higher-end magic transformation?" Lin Xi was shocked in his heart and frowned: "What do you mean?"
"There are still many unknowable places in this world. Zhantai Qiantang looked at Lin Xi and said, "For example, after the Ascending Heaven Mountain Range where your Qingluan Academy is located, it is said that there are endless ice fields and ice seas, behind the Purgatory Mountain, there are also Heavenly Demon Hell Plains full of flames and unknown powerful demon beasts, and the Heavenly Demon Hell Plains that no cultivator can return to if they go deep, as well as the endless desert behind the Prajna Temple, and many places after the Great Wilderness, are all unknowable places that cultivators' footprints are difficult to reach. However, according to some of the earliest cave vaults of the Thousand Demon Caves, these unknowable places may be related to the origin of some cultivation methods. According to Master Li Ku's judgment, the origin of Purgatory Mountain originated from the Shentu clan, and the Shentu clan should be the first person to obtain some cultivation methods in the Heavenly Demon Hell Plain behind the Heavenly Demon Mountain. ”
"In some folk legends, those unknowable places were the places where gods and demons fought. After a pause, Zhan Tai Qian Tang looked at Lin Xi and said, "But Master Li Ku and my teacher have assumed that those places may have been the prosperous places in this world, or at least a long time ago, some powerful cultivators or cultivation places existed. In the earliest records of the Thousand Demon Caves, the demon transformation of Purgatory Mountain appeared after the Shentu clan killed the Heavenly Candle Clan, and in some of our Damang folklore, the Heavenly Candle Clan was a huge monster possessed by the Heavenly Demon after entering the Heavenly Demon Prison by mistake, and the body was pitch black. And Master Li Ku and my teacher deduced from many legends and classical records that the magic transformation of the Tianzhu clan at that time could change at will and last for a long time, it seems that as long as there is enough soul power, the magic transformation can be achieved, and the soul power is exhausted, and the magic transformation is over, but there will be no damage to the body. ”q
