Volume 1 The Scholar and the Sword Chapter 16

As soon as Qin Zi entered the door, he saw Elder Shen sitting at the table, and there were a lot of books scattered on the table, which seemed a little messy. He saluted respectfully, and complained in his heart:

'It's so sloppy, no wonder it looks so dirty.' ’

"If you can keep it clean and tidy for more than ten or twenty years in the Scripture Pavilion, I, the preaching elder, will be handed over to you!" Shen Shuo noticed Qin Zi's eyes and said angrily.

Qin Zi smiled a little embarrassedly, he didn't continue on this topic, just kidding, could he tell him that he could really do it, let him hand over the position of the Great Elder of the Preaching to himself?

Fortunately, Shen Shuo did not continue to embarrass him, but instead said:

"I've called you here to tell you something.

Although you are asked to study on your own, if you can't lay a solid foundation, don't talk about continuing to study. ”

With that, he pointed to a pile of books on the ground next to him.

"These books are all related to Reiki, and they are a part of what you can read in your current ability.

There are countless books on Reiki, and there are thousands of them in this Scripture Pavilion alone, and many of them even have the same name, and ordinary people may still regard it as a book.

The quality of these books is uneven, but the worst ones are not too bad, I have sorted them out for you here, some are good and some are bad, some are more reasonable, and some don't know where they are going.

But I must remind you that there is still no accurate statement in the immortal cultivation world about the nature of Reiki, and most of the views in these books are different.

What you have to do now is to open up a new path, then you have to remember that you can refer to them, but you must not trust them, otherwise there will be no innovation in the future, and you will not be able to advance. ”

Speaking of this, he picked up the teacup next to him again, took a sip of tea beautifully, and said:

"I recommend these books to you, in fact, I want you to find a way to refine your aura first. This is actually not difficult, as long as you understand it, you can find it out casually.

In fact, like me, I can come up with ten or eight ways to refine spiritual energy in minutes. But you must pay attention to the fact that this method must not be casual, it is related to the foundation of your future cultivation, and it must not be sloppy, absolutely! ”

He also deliberately said it twice, indicating a strengthened tone.

"Okay, from today onwards, you will read these books first, and when you lay a good foundation in the future and have your own direction, you can go and find books to read by yourself.

Don't take it for granted that this is a simple thing to open the way.

Indeed, for those who have cultivated to a certain extent, the road ahead is very similar, and they can open up a path casually. But these can basically only be cultivated to Jindan, which killed Yuan Ying. Of course, these paths are for ordinary monks to cultivate, and they are useless under special circumstances.

So, they didn't really open up the path, they just made changes to the original cultivation methods, and they didn't improve them but made them worse.

These great cultivators are like this, let alone a novice cultivator like you.

The best way to recommend to you now is to learn knowledge, all types, genres, and fields.

Don't think that you can come up with a path with a few practice books.

The amount of knowledge required to blaze a trail is quite terrifying.

Let me give you an example, can't the refining tool be used for cultivation?

There was once a great power who combined training tools with body forging to study a way to strengthen the body. This road went to the depths, and the physical body was not inferior to those demon clans with powerful bloodlines.

Of course, what you need is to practice the fundamental path, which is still very different from him, but the truth is still interconnected.

Just now I borrowed the Locking Dragon Array outside to test you, in fact, I just wanted to see your arithmetic ability. ”

"Lock the Dragon Array?"

"Hehe, this locked dragon array is amazing.

That was a good friend of mine back then, the disciple had a conflict with the juniors of the dragon clan of the Beihai Dragon Palace, and he fought a real fire, and later handed over the elders of both sides to discuss the way of fighting, and the loser gave way.

Since it was not a life-and-death battle, my friend used the trees in the nearby forest to set up a top-level trapped formation, and even trapped a dignified Beihai Dragon Monarch for three days and three nights, and finally broke the formation directly with his strength with his strong cultivation.

After that fight, the Dragon Monarch was convinced by my friend, and named this formation 'Locking Dragon Array'.

Therefore, this 'Dragon Lock Array' is recognized by the Dragon Clan, otherwise who would dare to be so angry and threaten to lock the Dragon ......"

Shen Shuo's old problem has been made again, and he can't stop mentioning these things of interest, and he can't stop talking.

"How do you feel like that Longjun is taking the exam junior?" Qin Zi muttered quietly.

Our raunchy preacher's expression froze with pride, and he said angrily:

"What do you know, although the dragon clan is a demon clan, it is far from an ordinary monster.

Especially the Dragon Monarch of the Four Seas, who is extremely old, and his cultivation is even more unfathomable, and there are not many people in the entire Immortal Cultivation Realm who can fight with them.

And my friend majored in formations, and he was not good at attacking, so if he really wanted to fight, he was afraid that he wouldn't be able to withstand a slap from others! ”

Shen Shuo didn't look embarrassed at all when he said this, it seemed that it was already remarkable to be able to take a slap, but Qin Zi could still feel the strength of these dragon clans.

He thought that the decline of the demon clan mentioned by Elder Shen before was afraid that it did not include the dragon clan. Of course, it's also possible that dragons were more terrifying in the past.

But if you think about it carefully, since the dragon clan thinks that they are a clan, they should also be ashamed of those monsters, and they must have something to be proud of.

It is true that although the dragon clan is also a demon, it has a unique cultivation method of its own clan, and disdains to be compared with other demon clans.

In fact, there are many such races, and the dragon race is the most representative because it is the largest in number and the strongest.

Elder Shen may also feel a little embarrassed, so he pulled the topic back again:

"I just want to tell you that this Locking Dragon Array is actually very powerful, and what you broke through is just the first fur.

Then there are the eightfolds, each of which is countless times more powerful than the first. It can be said that the Lock Dragon Array is your natural arithmetic teacher.

Let me ask you, do you now understand that there are more than 10 million knowledge in the world, why do I make you pay so much attention to arithmetic? ”

In fact, Qin Zi had a little feeling about this when he broke through the Dragon Formation before, and now it is even more obvious.

I saw that he thought for a while, sorted out his thoughts, and then replied:

"Because I want to open up a path to come out, those various studies are inspiration, and arithmetic is the foundation!"

Elder Shen smiled with satisfaction when he heard this, and said in his heart:

This kid is still extremely smart, and with the secrets he hides, maybe he might be able to open up a way for him!" ’

"That's true, after all, you are going to make a fuss in the Qi Mansion Space in the future, and then this calculation will be very important, and it can even be said to be the main part of derivation. If you don't have talent in arithmetic, then you don't have to think about it, you can just practice martial arts.

Okay, you should practice Qi first, don't be too ambitious, and after you finish reading all these aura-related books, I'll help you find a few books on arithmetic.

You can start reading now, and if you don't understand something, come and ask me. ”

The young man had already been a little itchy when he looked at this pile of books, but now that he heard Elder Shen finish his speech, he hurriedly ran to the pile of books and sat on the ground.

Then, under Elder Shen's puzzled gaze, Qin Zi took out the bag of tips given by Aunt Ning, and took out a large bag of dry food from it, followed by the futon, then the small case, the four treasures of the study, and the lamps...... I didn't even forget to bring that little ritual instrument for washing.

After confirming that it was correct, he looked at the dim glow of his old candle lamp, and turned his head to look at the lamps in the room, with envy in his eyes.

These lamps look similar to their own candles, but they are actually aura-driven, free of black smoke and odors, and much brighter.

Then he muttered, "There is no need for lamps", put away his small candle lamp, showed a smile that he thought was perfect, and looked at Elder Shen with some embarrassment:

"That, Elder Shen, can you lend me a lamp?"

It wasn't until this time that Shen Shuo reacted, closed his wide open mouth, and scolded with a smile:

"You fucking just live here!"
