Chapter 7 Condensation!
In the dantian, it should have been full of combat power, but now it is bleak. The three phantoms that had already been condensed were all dim at this time, and they looked like they were about to dissipate at the slightest touch.
"Damn!" Xue Yi gritted his teeth.
Mu Chuande's palm was deflected by himself, far away from the vital point of his chest, but it was injured between his waist and abdomen. This is where the dantian is located, although it is not injured to death, but it is related to his cultivation future!
Xue Yi hurriedly ran the little remaining combat power in his body and condensed towards the dantian. He didn't dare to push too hard, but even so, a sharp pain still made him grin.
Gritting his teeth to endure the pain, Xue Yi slowly guided the scattered combat power of his whole body to converge towards the dantian. The effect is still there, and after a period of time, the dantian is still a little fuller.
"I'm afraid it will take several months for this injury to really heal, but I don't know if it will leave sequelae. Xue Yi estimated.
The physical injuries are nothing, just flesh wounds, and they are almost the same in three days. But this dantian injury is not something that can be fully recovered in ten days and a half months. Most of the hard-earned combat power in his body was shattered by Mu Chuande's palm, and it took him a lot of time to make up for it. Although the time required for this was not as long as the first time to condense, it was not short, enough to delay him a lot of time.
"Alas, admit it, this injury has been exchanged for a starlight grass, but it is worth it. Lying on the bed weakly, he grinned bitterly.
Suddenly, an idea popped into Xue Yi's mind: he had tried to condense the White Tiger Phantom many times before, but he had been unsuccessful, and the reason was that the resistance of the other three phantoms came from the resistance. Now that his dantian is damaged, his combat power is lost, the three phantoms are dim, and his resistance will definitely weaken. If you condense the White Tiger Phantom at this time, will it be easier?
As soon as he thought of this, Xue Yi's eyes immediately lit up. Having made up his mind, Xue Yi didn't hesitate anymore, and immediately used his elbows to support his body and wanted to sit up, the pain in his body made Xue Yi sweat profusely, but he still gritted his teeth and sat up cross-legged.
The beautiful idea did not overwhelm Xue Yi's mind with excitement and expectation, he calmly chose to close his eyes first to absorb the combat power in the heaven and earth, and try to replenish as much as possible and store it in the dantian. Because condensing the White Tiger Phantom not only requires a strong mind, but also requires a huge amount of combat power support.
After meditating for two hours, when the sky outside the window began to darken, Xue Yi opened his eyes again, and his deep eyes glowed with fiery brilliance.
"It's time to give it a try. Xue Yi clenched his fists and felt a lot of strength in his body, although it was still far less than before the injury, it was also the maximum at this stage.
"It must be successful!" Xue Yi's face gradually became firm. Although the countless previous failures failed to discourage Xue Yi, they still affected Xue Yi's mood to some extent. Now that I see a glimmer of hope for success, I have to hold on to it!
"Whew-" Exhaling a breath, Xue Yi settled down, closed his eyes again, and completely sank into his dantian. Looking at the three phantoms that had been dim for a long time at this time, Xue Yi pursed his lips, and his heart had already begun to exercise.
"The white tiger belongs to gold in the west, the main killing, the upper should be the residence, the quality of Yingying, the sound of the purification, the threat of birds and beasts, and the roaring mountains and forests. The position of the White Tiger, the Western Gengxin Gold Platinum, and the position of the real one. The phantom of the white tiger needs to be killed with the heart, and the strength of the gold can be obtained. During this period, it is difficult and dangerous, and you need to be careful to achieve success. ”
In his heart, he silently recited the record of condensing the phantom of the white tiger in the "Four Elephant Sutra", but his mind was unusually calm. He didn't know how many times he had read this text, and he had already memorized it in his heart.
"The heart touches the killing, and the sharpness of winning the gold. Xue Yi repeated these two sentences, but his mind was not slacking off at all, and the manipulator's combat power was rapidly condensed in the dantian. The combat power was pervasive, and the image of a flying and majestic white tiger gradually began to take shape in the western direction of the dantian.
As soon as the White Tiger began to take shape, the familiar resistance power from before resurfaced, and what made Xue Yi overjoyed was that this time the resistance power was more than a star and a half weaker than in his previous heyday!
What a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity! A situation similar to Xue Yi's current sluggish combat strength is very rare. It is impossible for ordinary people to make themselves like this, because this requires them to attack their own dantian. This kind of attack, if you are not careful, will be the end of the broken dantian and the path of cultivation will be cut off, who would dare to try it? And Xue Yi's current state is just the right thing for him to be able to overcome that resistance and condense the White Tiger.
"Rush into action!" Knowing that the opportunity was rare, Xue Yi immediately accelerated the condensation speed in the dantian, and wisps of combat power quickly converged, forming small whirlpools, and finally entangled together, transforming into the white tiger that gradually began to come alive.
As time passed, a feeling of exhaustion gradually appeared in Xue Yi's body. Xue Yi, who felt it, secretly screamed badly. Due to the sluggishness of combat power, the resistance power of the three phantoms has indeed weakened a lot, but in the same way, the combat power stored in his body is not much! Condensing the White Tiger requires a large amount of combat power, and at this moment, the combat power has been exhausted.
"You must persevere, you must succeed!" Xue Yi bit the tip of his tongue, sobering himself up a little, and the feeling of exhaustion also faded. At this time, the condensation of the white tiger was almost completed, and the following was the most critical point in the whole process, and it was also the place where Xue Yi had failed every time before. That is to let the four phantoms merge with each other, so that a delicate balance is formed between them, so as to achieve the fusion of power. In this way, it can lay a solid foundation for the condensation of Jindan to step into the tenth layer of the foundation.
"Shaoyang belongs to the east, in the form of a green dragon and sex is wood, the sun belongs to the south, in the form of a red bird, and sex is fire, Shaoyin belongs to the west, in the form of a white tiger, and sex is gold, and Taiyin belongs to the north, in the form of Xuanwu, and sex is water. The opportunity for creation cannot be lifeless, nor can it be uncontrolled. If there is no birth, there is no reason for development, and if there is no system, it will be harmful. The cycle of life is endless, and the way of heaven and earth is endless. The five elements are mutually reinforcing, the four elephants are mutually reinforcing, the yin and yang are conserved, and the principle of heaven and earth. ”
"The last step!" Xue Yi shouted frantically in his heart.
............
Zhoufu martial arts field, Shimen secret room, three floors underground.
"Oh!" Although he was warned by his father not to speak loudly when he came in, Zhou Shang couldn't help but let out a low exclamation when he saw the scene in front of him.
On the immensely empty ground sat a huge altar, surrounded by a circle of pillars of fire and totems more than a person high. Above the altar is a wide black dome, dotted with countless stars, making people feel that they are not standing under the bright starry sky as if they were several feet deep underground. A large, mysteriously shimmering seven-colored stone stood quietly in the center of the altar.
"This is the foundation of my Zhou family, and there are also many high-end combat skills and exercises that do not exist in the library and warehouse outside, as well as some natural treasures. And here, too, there is also the town guard of the strongest person in my Zhou family. "The lord of the Zhou Mansion, Zhou Yuntian turned sideways, his face was solemn, and said to Zhou Shang who was following closely behind.
"The strongest?" Zhou Shang was surprised. He had always thought that the person in front of him, that is, his father, was the strongest person in the Zhou Mansion, but he didn't expect that the real hole cards of the Zhou family were hidden here.
"Didn't expect it?" Zhou Yuntian smiled slightly and said, "How can our true strength be exposed in the eyes of enemies and opponents? And this is the place where all the Supreme Elders of my Zhou family usually practice and retreat. ”
Immediately afterwards, Zhou Yuntian took two steps forward, walked to the altar, slowly bowed down to the altar, and said respectfully: "Junior Zhou Yuntian, the fifth-generation lord of the Zhou Mansion, brought the juniors in the mansion to awaken the natal element. This son is a peerless genius of my Zhou family who has not been born for a hundred years, and at the age of twelve he has reached the tenth layer of the foundation realm, and I respectfully invite the ancestor to appear and preside over it in person!"
Zhou Yuntian's voice was very loud, and Qing Yue's voice immediately spread throughout the altar, echoing in this underground space.
"Hum-" After about a few breaths, a blue light rushed up from the other side of the altar, flying with a breath that almost suffocated Zhou Shang, and in the blink of an eye, it had already landed in front of Zhou Yuntian.
"At the age of twelve, you have to awaken the natal element, and it is indeed a rare seedling with excellent talent. An old, hoarse voice sounded slowly.
Only then did Zhou Shang settle down and look at the person who appeared, only to find that the person who came was an extremely old woman, hunched back, holding a bamboo and wooden cane in her hand, and the wrinkles on her face were like undulating mountain peaks. And her eyes are not cloudy, but with a kind of depth and vicissitudes that people can't see through. At this time, the old woman was looking at him kindly.
"Meet our ancestors. Zhou Yuntian immediately reminded. This old man is from his great-grandfather's generation, that is, he is the same as the second lord of the Zhou Mansion, and he is the real guardian of the Zhou Mansion. She is completely a junior in front of her, and she needs to be treated with extreme respect.
"Boy Zhou Shang visited the old ancestor. Zhou Shanggong respectfully knelt down and kowtowed, and said.
"Hurry up, just call me Hua Lao, don't be an ancestor. The old woman opened her toothless mouth and smiled happily.
"Trouble the old ancestor. After all, this kid is my flesh and blood, and his talent is so good, I am afraid that I will not be able to preside over it alone, so I invited the old ancestor out, hoping that it did not disturb your cultivation. Zhou Yuntian said respectfully to Hua Lao.
"It's okay, at my level, it's not something that can be broken through through the Death Pass, what is needed is a moment of enlightenment, which won't disturb my cultivation. On the contrary, I have not seen the light of day for so long, and I am happy to see this lively child. Hua Lao turned around and said as he walked slowly towards the elemental stone at the top of the altar.
"Thank you for the completion of your ancestors. Zhou Yuntian said happily.
"You have also done a very good job over the years, and I sometimes hear others praise me for managing the Zhou Mansion in an orderly manner. Although your cultivation talent is not good, you can only stay at this level if you work so hard, and you can manage the Zhou Mansion with your wisdom, and you are also very dutiful. We old guys are old, and the Zhou Mansion can only be handed over to you young people. Lead the Zhou Mansion well, and the ancestors' family business cannot be cut off. ”
"Thank you for the teachings of the ancestors. Zhou Yuntian said, but the joy had already overflowed on his face.
With that, the group had reached the top of the altar. Hua Lao beckoned to Zhou Shang: "Child, come here." ”
Zhou Shang walked over obediently, but his heart was dark about Hua Lao's strength. At this moment, Hua Lao's breath has converged, but Zhou Shang can still sense that in Hua Lao, there is an unfathomable feeling that even his father can't match.
"Press your hands on this elemental stone, and I'll activate it later, and then you just need to close your eyes and feel the changes in your body. Hua Lao said to Zhou Shang kindly.
"I understand. Zhou Shang nodded.
"Let's get started. Hua Lao nodded at Zhou Yuntian and said.
