Chapter 43: My Master Comes
"Amitabha, this is the seventh day, why hasn't my nephew woken up yet?"
Under the eaves, Tang Seng kept chanting Buddha, but his heart couldn't calm down.
"Elder Tang, there is a child guarding the side, please be relieved. I'm afraid that my nephew's cultivation has now reached the most critical moment, so let's not disturb them here. β
Liu Boqin's mother was relieved on the side, she had said something like that she didn't know how many times.
However, there was still no movement in the room.
Since staying here that night, Li Zhi left with Liu Boqin, and Tang Seng was entertained by Liu's mother.
The next day, Tang Seng chanted the scriptures for Liu Boqin's deceased father as scheduled, and he was busy all day.
First, it is the "Sutra of Death", followed by the "Diamond Sutra", "Guanyin Sutra", "Lotus Sutra", "Mida Sutra", and finally ends with the "Peacock Sutra".
After offering all kinds of incense, turning the gods into paper horses, and burning the dead Wenshu, the Buddhist affairs came to an end.
Liu's mother was on the side throughout the whole process, and Liu Boqin never appeared, which was originally a bit inappropriate, but it was not a village in the mountains here, and Tang Seng didn't think much about it.
After the Buddhist service was completed, he was told that Li Zhi was actually in retreat.
Although Tang Seng had never cultivated, he also knew that once a person in cultivation had entered the meditation, it was easy not to be disturbed.
However, the westward journey is imminent, and leaving Chang'an City has only been four or five thousand miles, so you can't stay here forever, right?
Therefore, from the third day onwards, he often appeared under the eaves of Li Zhi's retreat, constantly looking inward, and his usual steady state of mind seemed to be difficult to find.
Under the eaves of the corridor, Tang Seng and Liu's mother were talking in a whisper, and Li Zhi's cultivation in the room had indeed reached a critical moment, and even Liu Boqin, who was guarding the side, was a little worried about him.
That's a "Xuan Xian Dan"!
As the name suggests, it is a special elixir that can only be used when the True Immortal Realm breaks through to the Xuan Immortal Realm, and the energy contained in it is not something that Li Zhi can withstand now?
Liu Boqin regretted it very much, why did he take out this "Xuanxian Pill" at that time?
And Li Zhi, who was sitting cross-legged on the ground, didn't feel anything around him at all, to be precise, everything he was doing now seemed to be completely out of his control.
That's right, when the "Xuan Xian Dan" entered, the sleeping weird black spear in the sea woke up again.
In front of the black gun, it was the two yuan babies, one black and one white, and the state of the two yuan babies was extremely bad at this time.
The energy of the "Xuan Xian Dan" had just been released less than one-tenth, and the two primordial babies were completely fed.
It's a pity that the "Xuan Xian Dan" is unconscious, it is still releasing energy outward, and the two primordial babies have automatically turned off their divine senses, and they dare not continue to absorb them.
But such a huge amount of energy is actively moving closer to the two yuan babies.
At the same time, Li Zhi's sea of knowledge was gradually filled with this energy, but the "Xuan Xian Dan" had no intention of stopping.
Li Zhi's consciousness was already a little blurred, and he also noticed the situation in his knowledge, but he didn't know what he could do?
He could only desperately run the first layer of the "Cangming Jue", trying to divide part of the energy in the sea of consciousness, or lead it to the dantian, or guide it to the meridians.
"Haha, interesting, interesting, how long has it been, this kid is going to 'turn into a god'? Is there a precedent for such a precedent before? β
The black gun was a little excited, even gloating, as if it was its greatest happiness to see Li Zhi deflated.
It didn't take long for Li Zhi's dantian to be filled with energy, and the whole body was full of veins and many acupoints.
"Okay, it's time for my old man to make a move, otherwise this kid will be ruined, and I'll have to find a place to sleep again, hey, it's troublesome......"
Although the "Xuan Xian Dan" is a great tonic, it contains a lot of golden and stone qi, and for Li Zhi, whose realm is too low, it has become a deadly poison.
The black spear shook lightly twice, and then plunged headlong, and most of the remaining "Xuan Xian Dan" suspended in it instantly turned into powder.
fluttering and sprinkling, like rain, and like gold dust, all of them were adsorbed on the entire black gun.
The black gun was like being scratched by someone, and the whole gun was excited, constantly circling around the black and white twin infant, and at the same time, it was also extracting the golden stone qi in the black and white twin infant's body.
As a courtesy, the black gun spit out a trace of gray-white gas and sank into the top door of the black and white twin baby.
After a long time, the smoke dissipated, the rain subsided, and Li Zhi's sea of knowledge regained calm again.
"At the beginning of the Yuan Yuan, the baby was reborn, the complex was simplified, the fugue appeared, the success turned into a god, and he didn't wake up yet-"
With a low cry from the black gun, the black and white yuan baby opened his eyes again.
At this time, the black and white yuan baby has grown up a lot, just like two personable teenagers.
It's just a face dressed in black and black, a fluttering white dress, a face like a silver basin, and the appearance is extremely similar, all of which are eight or nine points similar to Li Zhi.
"I'm so grateful to my seniors for their helpβ"
The two teenagers, black and white, saluted at the black gun in unison, and they seemed to know what was going on.
"What a pitiful two little guys, they were born in this situation, and I don't know if it's good or bad?"
"With such a big bargain from that kid, my old man will pass on a set of marksmanship to each of you, one is 'bloodthirsty', and the other is 'God Extermination', and you can use it to practice on your own."
"Your master's strength is still too far behind, and that kid himself may not be able to protect himself, so you should stay here for the time being-"
After the black gun finished speaking, two rays of light shot out, hitting the black and white teenagers directly.
Suddenly, the young man in black had an extra "bloodthirsty" gun trick in his mind, but in the young man in white, what appeared in his mind was the "God Exterminator" gun trick.
"Forget it, it's better not to expose my old man for the time being."
Before the black-and-white boy could figure out what was going on, he felt dizzy in his head, and when he looked at each other again, he seemed to feel that his memory had been erased by someone.
β¦β¦
"Little brother, are you finally awake? βββ
When the sun was about to set, Li Zhi finally opened his eyes.
"Thank you Brother Liu for your care, the younger brother has broken through to the 'Transformation Realm', hahaha-"
Li Zhi was very excited, he had already examined his body.
found that not only the realm has reached the "Transformation of God", but even the "Cangming Jue" has also reached the second layer, and the "Broken Golden Pupil" has evolved to the second color - orange.
The excited Li Zhi hurriedly ran the "Broken Golden Pupil" and looked at Liu Boqin, who was guarding the side.
Well, it's still nothing, it seems that this person is at least at the level of "Golden Immortal" or above!
Looking at the sea of knowledge, the original black and white twin babies have now grown into two handsome teenagers, but these two teenagers are practicing marksmanship as if no one is around.
"Well, where did they learn marksmanship, and why did they get two more guns, one black and one white?"
The black and white boy and Li Zhiben are one, and after some information sharing, Li Zhi also knows the two gun tips of "Bloodthirsty" and "God Exterminator", but he still has not found the source of the gun tips and the origin of the two guns.
And the "Cangming Technique" has been upgraded to the second level, and there is also a new skill, or a trait-"vigorous".
Li Zhi felt that if he wanted to, he could easily flatten the Double Fork Ridge.
How much power does that add?
Hundredfold? A thousandfold?
And Li Zhi feels that this is probably not the peak of the characteristic of "vigorous", and with the continuous improvement of his own realm, the limit of "vigorous" will also rise.
"Little brother, are you okay?"
Li Zhi kept sitting on the ground and smirking, seeing that Liu Boqin was confused, and even a little creepy.
"Haha, I'm fine, this time I really want to thank Brother Liu for the wine, and the pill, the little brother can't repay it, so let's kowtow to the eldest brother firstββ"
Li Zhi thanked Liu Boqin in front of him from the bottom of his heart, although he didn't know what the other party's purpose was, but the benefits he got were obvious.
"Ah, this...... Hurry up, please! All this is the little brother's own creation, you swallowed the 'Xuan Xian Dan', and a certain family has been worried for so many days, have you really absorbed all those energies? β
Liu Boqin was still puzzled.
When Li Zhi fell into cultivation, he even secretly used the hidden talent and supernatural powers, but he still couldn't see through the reality in Li Zhi's body, as if there was a mysterious energy stopping him?
"It should be, I don't know very well, it seems that I woke up and broke through to the 'god' realm."
Li Zhi said with some embarrassment.
His answer was completely perfunctory in the eyes of others, but no one knew that Li Zhi was actually telling the truth.
"Okay, let's go out, I'm afraid your clan uncle is already impatient to wait."
Seeing that he couldn't ask why, Liu Boqin simply gave up completely.
He is not a stingy person, just a "Xuan Xian Dan", with his net worth, he naturally doesn't take it too seriously, just think of it as a good fate.
"Jiurou, you're finally out? βββ
As soon as the door opened, Tang Seng under the eaves of the corridor surrounded him, and his concern was overflowing.
"Haha, Uncle Clan, such a big mood swing of yours can affect Zen Gong, and monks should be careful like stagnant water."
Xu is that he finally broke through again, Li Zhi rarely made a joke with Tang Seng, and was not full of emotion about Tang Seng's performance?
The day has turned west, and the night is coming again, so naturally they can't leave here, so Tang Seng and Li Zhi have to stay here for one more night.
For the black and white teenagers in the sea of knowledge, Li Zhi really didn't know how to arrange it for a while.
Let them come out, it seems that with him, the strength of the three of them together is not enough.
This trip to the west is vast, especially with his variables, no one dares to guarantee what will happen.
Seeing the two people immersed in gun practice, Li Zhi couldn't help but feel a little emotional.
The so-called doppelganger, any information in their minds, as the ontology, can be obtained free of charge and infinitely, but the doppelganger needs to be actively given by the ontology.
Now that these two people are practicing guns, it is equivalent to Li Zhi himself practicing, once these two people practice, Li Zhi will automatically learn the two gun tricks of "bloodthirsty" and "god destroying".
Is this cheating?
But who taught them marksmanship?
Li Zhi locked his eyes on the big black gun.
Yes, it can be called a big black gun now, and the body of the gun should be about to return to its original length, in Li Zhi's opinion, it is really not very convenient to use this gun on the ground, this is too long, right?
However, he was not arrogant enough to control this gun, and he stayed in his body for six years, first in the dantian and then in the sea of knowledge.
Li Zhi had realized that the gun should have been seriously injured before, and now it is in a state of recuperation.
So, the energy that was lost out of thin air in his body probably entered this guy's stomach, right?
If it really has a belly.
Early the next morning, Tang Seng and Li Zhi both got up early.
After staying here for seven or eight days, although Li Zhi had gained a lot, he still felt that he had delayed Tang Seng's schedule to go west.
"Brother Liu, thank you for your hospitality for so many days, it's time for me and my uncle to go west, and you will repay your kindness in the future!"
Outside the gate of the villa, Tang Seng and Li Zhi each led a horse, and Li Zhi said goodbye to Liu Boqin's mother and son.
"Haha, Elder Tang, little brother, a certain family is also very happy to meet you, especially Elder Tang has chanted more than his ancestor, and a certain family has not had time to thank you in person."
Liu Boqin smiled "haha", wrapped a roasted bison leg in oiled paper, and placed it on Li Zhi's horse.
Although Li Zhi walked with Tang Seng, Tang Seng did not ask him to be a vegetarian, after all, Li Zhi was just a companion, not a person in Buddhism.
"Elder Tang, little brother, have you seen that 'Two Realms Mountain'?"
Liu Boqin hesitated, but finally felt that he should give two more instructions.
"This 'Two Realms Mountain' was originally called 'Five Elements Mountain', which fell from the sky when Wang Mang usurped the Han Dynasty. Since then, there has been a divine monkey under the 'Two Realms Mountain'. β
"This monkey is not afraid of cold and heat, does not eat and drink, and has his own earth god to prison, teaching him to eat iron pills and drink copper juice thirsty, from the past to the present, he will not die of cold and hunger. When a certain family was hunting, I had met several times, and I had some friendship. β
"The two of you will inevitably pass through the other place on your way west, and if you are interested, you can go up and talk. This is the water and wine prepared for him by a certain family, so please take it with the little brother. β
As he spoke, Liu Boqin took out a large wine bag, which seemed to be enough to hold five catties of aged wine.
"Thank you Brother Liu for telling me, I'm waiting to leave-"
Tang Seng and Li Zhifei got on their horses and left.
"Mother, can Elder Tang really surpass his father's soul?"
Looking at the two of them in the distance, Liu Boqin asked leisurely.
"Son, Elder Tang is the reincarnation of Jin Chanzi, the second apprentice of Rulai, the Journey to the West Tribulation has started, and he is a person of great luck here, with this layer of blessings, I believe that your father's soul will definitely be able to get exceeded."
"It's a pity, your father's ghost still has eyebrows, and your eldest brother ...... After searching for so many years, within the Three Realms, in the heavens and on the ground, I haven't been able to find even half a wisp of remnant souls. β
Thinking of her husband and eldest son who died tragically again, Liu's mother's mood suddenly fell to the bottom, and she leaned weakly on the door frame.
"Mother, your eyes are like torches, have you ever seen anything strange about that young man?"
Seeing that his mother was sad again, Liu Boqin hurriedly changed the topic and talked about Li Zhi, who even he couldn't see through.
"That little brother is indeed very peculiar, you said that he was the ninth son of Emperor Tang, and said that he had reached the 'Transformation God Realm'? How could a royal person have such a cultivation? β
"Moreover, I think this son has a ninety-five appearance, and it stands to reason that the lifespan should not be higher than three hundred, which is strange, strange."
Recalling Li Zhi's appearance, Liu's mother sighed again.
"Hmph, what 'reason'? It's just a rule made up by the one who just wants all living beings to listen to him? β
Liu Boqin said indignantly, looking at the gritted teeth, it seemed that he was not just fighting for Li Zhi?
"Alright, your mission is accomplished, let's go back too. Now that the catastrophe of Journey to the West has begun, although it is said that this catastrophe should mainly be on the demon clan, we should not be careless, especially you-"
Mother Liu returned to normal, turned around and walked towards the inner house.
β¦β¦
"Kuro, what are you doing so fast? The left and right are not bad for a while. β
Coming out of Liu Boqin's house, it was a flat river, and the two of them galloped for more than 30 miles.
Don't look at Tang Seng who has been fasting and chanting Buddha for so many years, but he has practiced a good riding skill.
At the beginning of the Tang Dynasty, the whole people were martial arts, and even ordinary scholars had many people who practiced swords and arrows, and it was natural for them to gallop on horseback.
After Tang Seng was eighteen years old, he traveled around the Tang Dynasty, not only increasing his knowledge, but also exercising a good body.
"Uncle Clan, didn't you listen to what Brother Liu said? There was a divine monkey under the 'Two Realms Mountain' in front of him, and the pheasant slave couldn't wait to go over and have a look. β
Li Zhi pretended to be a teenager, and just used Liu Boqin's words to hide his true thoughts well.
"Amitabha, the sky descends on the mountain and presses down the monkey, this monkey must have a great origin, we should not provoke it easily."
Tang Seng looked unwilling to provoke right and wrong, but the "Two Realms Mountain" was getting closer and closer.
Suddenly, I could only hear thunder shouting at the foot of the mountain.
"My master is here, my master is hereβ"
