Chapter 9: The Pill is Suspicious
Ma Yilong's face was full of excitement, and entering the first layer of Qi refining meant that he was already an immortal cultivator! This small step meant a huge change from martial arts to immortal cultivation for Ma Yilong.
After a little movement, Ma Yilong sat cross-legged again, and at this time he could already see every meridian and bone on his body. But for Ma Yilong, what he was most anxious about was the three-element incarnation divine sword in his right arm.
Under this look, Ma Yilong was surprised, the divine sword had been transformed after blood sucking, and it was not forward at all. The Excalibur resting in his arm was only more than half a foot long, more like a dagger to be precise. For some reason, the sword became rusty, and at first glance it looked like a small piece of rusty scrap metal.
Ma Yilong tried to urge the little sword with his divine thoughts, but the little sword didn't move. Ma Yilong put all the little spiritual energy left in his body into the sword, and then drove it with his divine thoughts, and the little sword still didn't move at all. Ma Yilong smiled and shook his head, he knew that his divine thoughts were not strong enough to force it. After calming down his mood, Ma Yilong continued to refine his qi.
After a whole night of meditation and cultivation, Ma Yilong not only did not feel tired, but felt refreshed. When he first stepped on the Immortal Gate, he was able to break through the first layer of Qi refining so quickly, and he couldn't help but secretly feel a burst of joy.
People say that the Five Spirit Roots are the lowest level of immortal cultivation qualifications, but he can produce a sense of qi so easily and successfully break through the first layer, Ma Yilong is puzzled. In fact, the reason why Ma Yilong was able to achieve this achievement so quickly was naturally due to the healing spirit bead and the three-element incarnation divine sword in his body. These two things are both supreme treasures from the Luo Heaven Realm, and they can attract the aura of heaven and earth in themselves.
Ma Yilong, who had eaten breakfast in a hurry, took out the four "Qi Condensing Pills" as soon as he returned to the cave. However, he was not in a hurry to take them, but kept his eyes on them, as if to see something wrong.
Ma Yilong was originally very smart, good at observation and analysis, and even better at thinking calmly. It's just that he has a good nature, but he is not deeply involved in the world, and he has always thought about the good of people, and he has never been on guard, let alone calculating others.
Shangguan Qiong's deception made Ma Yilong become a lot more mature all of a sudden. Now he knows that there is good and evil in people's hearts, and he can't just remember that he can't hurt people, but he also has to always remember the next half of the sentence, and the heart of guarding against people is indispensable!
Once bitten by a snake, ten years afraid of the well rope!
Ma Yilong knew that he would no longer eat things given by unfamiliar people in his life, especially pills. Because as soon as he saw the pill, he would think of Shangguan Qiong, and he would involuntarily raise his guard.
After staring at Liang Jiu'er, Ma Yilong didn't find any problems with the pill, but his intuition told him that this matter was definitely not that simple.
Ma Yilong closed his eyes and carefully recalled the situation when he issued the pill, and suddenly Ma Yilong patted his head, and he figured it out. These are two completely different pills, and at least one of them is not a good medicine.
He clearly remembered Jiang Shuyuan's complicated expression when he mentioned the pill, which clearly meant that there was a hidden meaning in it.
At that time, Jiang Shuyuan did not send the pill directly, but after seeing that everyone did not make a choice, he sighed and asked people to send the pill. As for Jiang Shuyuan's explanation that he forgot for a while, Ma Yilong didn't believe it at all, and there was no such possibility.
At this moment, Ma Yilong also remembered another detail. When the pills were distributed, the Qi Refining disciple was holding two boxes in his hands, and the two pills that were given to each person were from different boxes. Since it is the same elixir, why should it be distributed like this, isn't it more convenient to take two pills directly from the unified box?
Based on these analyses, Ma Yilong summed up a very point:
Of these two pills, at least one is not a good pill, and it is two completely different ones. Jiang Shuyuan must have done this on the orders of his master, but out of his own reluctance, he deliberately delayed it. Unexpectedly, everyone was reluctant to participate in the trip to the Holy Land, so he had to take it out.
Thinking about these things clearly in an instant, Ma Yilong was also secretly glad that he didn't eat it. Everyone else only has two pills, and he has two more grains in his hand, if he really takes them all in a daze, the harm will be even greater.
"Hmph! it's really his ~ mother~ insidious, or a dignified cultivator!" Ma Yilong snorted coldly, cursing in his heart!
Ma Yilong, who had just stepped on the path of cultivating immortals, had a very bad impression of the Purple Cloud Sect for a moment! With the face of Wang Xian, a disciple of the previous foundation building period, and with the current inference, no one would have a good impression of this sect.
Ma Yilong's analysis is indeed not bad at all.
In a large hall on the highest peak of the Purple Cloud Sect, a Taoist priest stood with his hands behind his back, and it was none other than the Red Cloud Daoist. Not far behind him stood a young man, dressed in white and very handsome, it was Jiang Shuyuan.
"It's been a day, why did you come back to report?"
"Master forgive your sins! The disciple still has to send someone to inquire about the origin of those disciples, which delayed some time!"
"Have all the pills been distributed?"
"Send it down!"
"Well, as long as they eat that Yirong Pill, their appearance will definitely change greatly, and they must participate in the trip in order to restore their appearance, and we don't have to worry about anything anymore! I have secretly seen everything in front of the mountain gate, have you ever sent someone to inquire about the origin of that disciple named Ma Yilong?" When it came to the pill, the Chiyun Dao people had a smug look on their faces, and when they turned their faces to Ma Yilong, the Chiyun Dao people had a complicated expression.
"Ma Yilong was born in a martial arts family, his father was a famous fast sword in the rivers and lakes, and he himself is also extremely skilled in martial arts, and his sword is quite fast! If you don't care about the sword moves, you can only see the speed of the sword, and I am afraid that this sect will not be able to find a second person!" Jiang Shuyuan looked at the people of Chiyun Dao and said calmly.
Only one day later, Jiang Shuyuan actually inquired about Ma Yilong's origin clearly. It seems that the Ma family moved out of Fengyuan Town is a very correct decision, otherwise judging from Ma Yilong's many behaviors in the future, it will definitely affect his family.
"In this way, this Ma Yilong is a material that can be made! Not to mention the high martial arts, before he stepped on the immortal road, he dared to look directly at a disciple in the foundation building period angrily, just for this courage, this person's future is limitless! You can help him to a certain extent!" Chiyun Dao stroked his beard, and after praising Ma Yilong, he smiled and said something that surprised Jiang Shuyuan.
"What does Master mean?" Jiang Shuyuan looked at the Chiyun Dao people with a puzzled expression.
"Okay, I already know what is on your mind! After all, you are my disciple, can I still watch you being bullied by that Wang Xian! It is also appropriate to teach him some lessons, I will not blame you! There are some things, you can just look at and deal with them, and I will make decisions for you if necessary!" Chiyun Dao people smiled all over their faces, and their words also made Jiang Shuyuan's brows suddenly stretch.
After a stick of incense, Jiang Shuyuan left the hall with a smile.
One of the reasons why Wang Xian is so arrogant is because he is a disciple of Zhang Wancheng and a disciple of Qingyun Dao. Another reason is that he is from the Xiuzhen family, and he has the support of the family forces behind him.
But Wang Xian is a complete snob, knowing that he has himself but does not know anyone. He dared to point fingers in front of Jiang Shuyuan, because he felt that Jiang Shuyuan was a disciple of the outer hall and easy to bully, but he didn't know that Jiang Shuyuan, like Liu Lin, was a disciple privately accepted by the head of Chiyun Dao, but the relationship was not announced.
If you talk about it, Wang Xian still wants to call Jiang Shuyuan uncle!
However, there is also a non-regulated rule in the sect of cultivating immortals, except for the same sect with a teacher, the same level can call each other senior brother and brother, and the higher level must be respected as a senior uncle or senior. In other words, the generation can grow with cultivation, maybe today you are my uncle, and in a few years I will become your uncle. In fact, this is the real 30 years of Hedong and 30 years of Hexi!
For these, Ma Yilong still doesn't know.
At this moment, Ma Yilong is thinking in the cave. He reminded Ben to think that the others should not take the two pills first, but when he went out to ask, he found out that everyone else had already taken the pills except him. Now that he has eaten it, there is no need for Ma Yilong to stop mentioning this matter.
To Ma Yilong's surprise, after less than a day, all of them, the newly entered outer hall disciples, had broken through the first layer of qi refining.
This kind of thing is almost impossible according to common sense, Ma Yilong frowned and thought for a long time, and finally figured it out. Of the two pills that were sent down, one of them should be a true Qi Condensing Pill. However, he could not know which one was. Moreover, Ma Yilong now has four pills, which have been completely mixed together, and it is even more difficult to distinguish them.
Thinking about these things clearly, Ma Yilong is no longer entangled in this matter. Now that he has a cultivation, he naturally wants to see what is in the storage bracelet he got in the cemetery, after all, he will also choose exercises to cultivate later. However, Ma Yilong swept it with his divine thoughts and found that he couldn't see anything in this storage bracelet, which made Ma Yilong extremely disappointed.
Ma Yilong smiled bitterly and walked out of the cave. He walked around the library of this mountain peak and found that there were no immortal cultivation techniques suitable for him in it at all, most of them were martial arts classics. Ma Yilong also went to the library on other peaks. However, there is a fee there, and the scope of free for these outer disciples is limited to this mountain. When Ma Yilong first entered the immortal gate, he had no spirit stone on his body at all, so he could only return to his residence gloomily.
Before he reached the entrance of the cave, he happened to see Jiang Shuyuan standing at the door of the cave from a distance, and Ma Yilong couldn't help but be stunned. However, Ma Yilong, who had become more mature, quickly reacted, hurriedly stepped forward and bowed, and let Jiang Shuyuan into his hole.
After chatting for a while, Ma Yilong's heart moved, took out the four pills, put them in his hand, and said with a smile: "Uncle Jiang came just in time, I just wanted to ask you for advice! Of the four pills in my hand, two of them should be eaten and two should not be eaten, I want Uncle Shi to give me some advice, which two pills should I eat? Uncle Shi should also know one thing, my appearance has already changed greatly, I have no choice at all, no matter what, I will participate in the trip to the Holy Land and enter the spell failure area!"
Jiang Shuyuan was surprised when he saw the pill in Ma Yilong's hand, and then heard what Ma Yilong said!
