Chapter 12: The Nine Elements

"What a rambling!"

Yuan Ming shook his head, and opened a book again, which was a report by a waiter of the Ministry of Industry on the repair of the Changchun Guantianzun Palace, which was also a long speech, and Yuan Ming was very interested.

Before he could finish it, he hurriedly closed the fold and threw it aside.

"It seems that it is not easy to be the emperor, if it were me, I would definitely pull out these officials who talk nonsense and give them a good beating." Yuan Ming muttered in his mouth.

He rubbed his brows, lifted his spirits, and opened the third book.

This piece is different from the previous one, it seems that the language is very concise and capable, and at the beginning of the sentence he used a few concise sentences to tell the emperor about the attack on the mission sent by the state to southern Xinjiang.

"It turned out to be a military general, and it was really very different from the Wenchen who dropped his bookbag." Yuan Ming looked at the signature at the end, Zhennan General Yuan Zuochong.

"Yuan Zuochong? This name is somewhat familiar, as if you have heard it somewhere? He muttered to himself, and was about to look through the notes to see if he could find more clues, when suddenly the voice of the feminine man came from outside:

"Your Majesty, the National Teacher Jade Pot Immortal Elder asks to see you."

"Jade pot immortal chief, it seems that he is a person who cultivates immortals!" Yuan Ming's eyelids jumped, and he subconsciously wanted to refuse.

But after thinking about it, he didn't know the relationship between this young emperor and the jade pot immortal at all, and it seemed inappropriate to refuse rashly.

What's more, the young emperor possessed by the divine soul is too unbelievable, and this immortal chief should not be able to detect it.

"Please come in." After weighing it for a moment, Yuan Ming put down his hand and said.

The feminine man agreed, and the door of the temple was pushed open.

An old man in a purple and gold robe stepped in, struck him at him, and said:

"Fusheng Immeasurable Heavenly Venerable."

Yuan Ming looked at the past, and saw that the old Taoist looked clear, although his face was thin, the skin on his face was radiant, and the three long beards hung down on his chest, quite like a fairy wind bone.

In addition, wearing a purple gold robe embroidered with gossip cloud patterns, and a lotus crown with gold threads, the whole person looks even more royal and extravagant, which makes people feel awe.

"The national teacher doesn't have to be polite, why did he come this time?" Yuan Ming raised his palm for a moment, considered the wording, and said.

"I just heard that Gonggong Li said that His Majesty's dragon body is not safe, and the poor Dao came to visit." The jade pot shook off the dust and replied.

"I'm fine, the national teacher has a heart." Yuan Ming pinched his tone and said.

"Your Majesty's dragon body is related to the rise and fall of the world, you can't be careless, let's let the poor Dao give you the number one vein." The jade pot Taoist couldn't help but say something and stepped forward.

Yuan Ming's eyes narrowed, this person was so arrogant, but he didn't understand the relationship between the two clearly, and it didn't end well if he forcibly refused, so he stretched out his wrist.

The head of the jade pot glanced at the empty porcelain box in the corner of the desk, quickly retracted his gaze, and put his fingers on Yuan Ming's wrist.

A slight cool breath seeped in, quickly flowing all over his body.

"This old Taoist is really an immortal cultivator!" Yuan Ming's pupils contracted slightly, and he didn't dare to take a breath, and he regretted a little in his heart that he let this person give him a pulse, hoping that he would not find out the clues.

Lao Dao closed his eyes and stared, and after a moment, his expression changed.

"National teacher, how's it going?" Yuan Ming asked stubbornly.

"Has Your Majesty been resting well lately? The pulse showed that the blood was good, but the spirit seemed to be uneasy. The Jade Pot Dao Master opened his eyes and said.

"It's true that I've been sleeping hard lately, and I have occasional nightmares, so it's okay, right?" Yuan Ming said vaguely.

"Your Majesty don't worry too much, these are just small things. If His Majesty is willing to listen to the poor Tao and cultivate the "Nine Yuan Jue" as soon as possible, and have the mana to support his body, he will not have these problems. The jade pot Taoist stroked his beard and said.

"What did you just say, National Teacher?" Yuan Ming blinked and asked again.

"The Nine Yuan Jue is my Changchun Guan Secret Technique, non-elite disciples do not pass it on, there is no risk in cultivation, and it also has the effect of strengthening the body, why do you repeatedly refuse, Your Majesty." The jade pot Taoist sighed lightly and said.

"Nine Elements? Is this exercise really as magical as you say? Yuan Ming's eyes rolled and asked tentatively.

"Of course, the Nine Yuan Jue is the secret transmission of the Daomen, and the ancestors of my Changchun Guan Dynasty have spent countless efforts to improve and perfect, not to boast of the poor Dao, if it is about consolidating the meridians, regulating qi and blood, etc., any exercise in the world cannot be compared with the Nine Yuan Jue." The Jade Pot Dao Master said proudly.

"How fast is this exercise accumulating mana?" Yuan Ming's breathing was slightly short, and he asked.

"The Daomen exercises pay attention to step by step, and the Nine Yuan Jue is indeed not good at cultivation speed, but the ninth generation of my Changchun Guan Master has spent a lot of effort to integrate a spirit gathering technique into the Nine Yuan Jue, and the speed of accumulating mana in this exercise has increased a lot, and it is not inferior to some Demon Dao exercises, and the most important thing is that there are no hidden dangers." The Jade Pot Daoist smiled and said with some smugness.

"Since the national teacher is so strongly recommended, I will practice this nine-yuan formula, and I will ask the national teacher for advice." Yuan Ming got up and bowed to Lao Dao.

Hearing this, the Jade Pot Daoist was stunned, staring at the young emperor up and down twice, a look of surprise flashed in his eyes, but soon, his tightly knit brows suddenly relaxed, and his face showed a look of comfort.

"Okay, your majesty has finally opened your mind today, it is really in line with the way of heaven, and the poor way should teach with your heart." The jade pot Taoist said three "good" words in a row, and it was difficult to hide the joy in his heart.

As he spoke, he took out a purple cloud book with "Nine Yuan Jue - Part I" written on it from his sleeve and handed it to "Yuan Ming".

Yuan Ming hurriedly took it with both hands, and couldn't wait to open it and read it.

Different from the blood qi method formula, the first part of this nine-yuan formula has a lot of content, sprinkled with nearly a thousand words, and the words are simple and atmospheric, and at a glance, you can know that it is much more subtle than the blood qi method.

According to the book, the first part of this exercise has a total of thirteen layers, which correspond to the mana cultivation during the Qi refining period.

Yuan Ming read quickly, and his heart was overjoyed.

"Your Majesty, cultivation is no different from studying to cultivate qi, only diligent study and hard practice. This nine-yuan recipe is the ancestral treasure of Changchun, and it cannot be lightly taught by those who are not the descendants of the sect and the inheritors of the Great Jin Dynasty. Today, the first part is passed on to Your Majesty, and please abide by the rules of the Tao and do not spread it outside. The jade pot Taoist admonished.

Yuan Ming was immersed in "Nine Yuan Jue" and did not reply.

"Your Majesty, don't be too anxious in Taoist practice, and don't be too anxious. I got the mantra today, and I am familiar with reciting it first, and when I keep all the mantras in mind, I will come back to your majesty to solve your doubts. Seeing that the emperor was so attentive, the jade pot Taoist stroked his long beard, and was quite relieved in his heart, and after reminding him, he got up and was about to leave.

At this moment, hearing a soft sound of "pop", Yuan Ming had already closed the purple book.

"National teacher, I have memorized the content of the Nine Yuan Jue, but some places are still unclear, and I ask the national teacher to solve my doubts." Yuan Ming looked solemn and said.

The old Taoist man's movement of his long beard suddenly froze, and he looked at the emperor in disbelief.

"Your Majesty...... Remembered? ”

"Remembered." Yuan Ming nodded seriously.

After finishing speaking, he also realized that his memory seemed to be a little unusual.

When I first learned the Blood Qi Method, I only heard one side, and I could remember it immediately, but at that time, there were only two hundred words, and Yuan Ming himself didn't take it seriously.

But now, he can do it without forgetting.

"Your Majesty, Tianfu Zangyunmen, what is the next sentence of the column missing into the abyss?" After a pause, the Jade Pot Daoist asked.

"The fish walks through the canal, and does not return to the dragon gate." Yuan Ming replied immediately.

"Shenchong Taixu Yuan?" The Jade Pot Daoist continued to ask.

"Meaning to guard the Dantian Palace." Yuan Ming replied easily.

"Boyang doesn't change careers to Yu Yin?"

"The sky is dry, and the earth is dry."

……

After some questions and answers, the surprise on the face of the jade pot Taoist became more and more intense, and he couldn't help but praise: "In the past, His Majesty was still young and had fun, but today I know that it is a clumsy move. ”

When Yuan Ming heard this, he secretly said in his heart: "This is not necessarily. ”

"Dao Chief, I know the Tianfu, Cloud Gate, Lieqing, Taiyuan and the like mentioned earlier in this book, but they are all the points of people's bodies, but what are these Taixu Yuan and Dantian Palace?" Yuan Ming seized the opportunity and asked.

It is rare to see His Majesty the Emperor so studious, and the old Tao does not doubt him, and immediately replied:

"The tricks that Your Majesty knows are basically the same as those related to cultivation, but the cultivation tips are deeper, and when you practice mana, you will naturally be aware of it. As for Taixu Yuan, it is the sea of human knowledge, and it is also the place where the soul of the gods is hidden and the mind is accepted. Dantian Palace, also called Dantian, is the place where mana is stored in the future, and it is under the belly of people. ”

"I see, that's ......" Yuan Ming gestured on his stomach and found that it was basically the same as the place where the heat flow converged when he cultivated the Blood Qi Method.

Yuan Ming seized the opportunity and hurriedly asked the doubts in his heart one by one.

Although the Jade Pot Dao Master felt that His Majesty in front of him was very different, he still patiently answered.

Soon, all of Yuan Ming's doubts had been answered, and he had no doubts about the Nine Yuan Jue, so he sat cross-legged on the dragon chair and tried to cultivate.

At this moment, the mark on his right arm suddenly jumped, and the heat flow inside quickly subsided.

Yuan Ming was about to check, when he suddenly felt an indescribable feeling of sleepiness hit him, his eyelids were so heavy that he couldn't lift them, his eyes went dark, and he lost consciousness again.

In a drowsiness, Yuan Ming only felt as if he had had a long dream, and he didn't know how long it took to slowly wake up.

He rubbed his eyes, only to find that he was back in the dark cavern, and his body had become his own.

"I'm ...... It's back! Yuan Ming's heart was relieved.

The simple green pottery incense burner was now placed in front of him, with two slender black incense sticks inserted on it, and the third incense burned out, leaving only the last spark to be extinguished.

The cloth he had used to light the incense had also burned out, and only a little was left in his hand, and the two fingers that pinched the cloth were blackened and emitted bursts of burning sting, apparently caused by the flames on the cloth.

Yuan Ming shook his fingers, it seemed that when his consciousness descended on the Young Emperor, his body remained motionless, unconscious, and he did not react when he was burned by the fire.
