Chapter 47: The Immortal Temple
In June, it was the height of summer, and the heat in the capital was unbearable, and pedestrians were sweating after just walking in the sun for a while.
Someone once proposed to the Great Zhou Emperor to arrange a formation in the capital to change the time of the heavens around the capital, but the Great Zhou Emperor rejected the suggestion after some consideration, believing that this move would hurt the peace of the heavens and violate the rules of the Great Dao Nature.
One day, Chu Xiqing came to Zaifu Mansion again, and when she saw Kou Qingqiu again, she was already a monk in the middle stage of spiritual cultivation, and her cultivation speed was not fast, but according to Zaifu Kou Yuan's words, she said that she was accumulating a lot of hair, and the more she went to the back, the weaker she became, and her cultivation speed would slow down.
When Kou Qingqiu saw Chu Xiqing that day, he reminisced about the past, and stopped talking during the period, and finally sighed, and said frankly that the third prince had come to her, hoping to meet "Chen Mo" through her.
Chu Xiqing wondered, he should have never crossed paths with this third prince, why did he suddenly want to see him? So in the end, I didn't agree.
During this period, there was an incident in the palace that was enough to become a topic of conversation after tea and dinner - Qin Shangshu of the Ministry of Rites saw a person after retiring from the court one day, and rushed forward to reprimand him, but that person was disrespectful, looked arrogant, and repeatedly contradicted, and the angry Qin Shangshu trembled, and Qin Shangshu's eldest son saw this scene, and wanted to teach that person a lesson in anger, but was knocked to the ground, and finally the six princes came forward to reconcile, and it was over.
In the lost ghost world, Chu Xiqing and Bai Duyi have known each other for more than a month, and he has become one of the few living friends of Bai Duyi.
Bai Duyi recognized Chu Xiqing as his junior brother, and Chu Xiqing was reluctant at first, but after Bai Duyi gave some conditions, Chu Xiqing shouted from the bottom of his heart: "Sister Bai!" ”
There is a large-scale formation arranged in the ghost world, which is used to gather and nourish the yin qi, and the ghosts can feed back to the ghost world after their cultivation is successful, so the yin qi here is pure and rich, which is extremely suitable for the cultivation of some Taoist powers.
Stopping the operation of Yin and Yang to refine his body, Chu Xiqing found that no matter how he cultivated these days, his physical body cultivation seemed to be stagnant and unchanged. He guessed that it was because he had not had enough yang energy, and he couldn't break through the bottleneck by relying on fire and yin energy alone.
So he found Bai Duyi, who was cultivating on a suspended hill in the heights, and said in a loud voice: "Sister Bai! Where is the place where the yang is heavier? ”
Bai Du jumped down one by one and landed in front of Chu Xiqing, her face was cold, and her hands were behind her back, "Where the yang qi is heavier? There is a place at the junction of the ghost world and the desolate world, but the road is a bit far. ”
"It's not a problem, Sister Bai, can you lead the way?"
"Then you can keep up." Bai Duyi stomped his feet lightly, and the whole person rose into the sky, turning into a streamer and flying into the distance.
Chu Xiqing threw up what had become a line of swords, and the sword flew, and the speed was not inferior to Bai Duyi in the late Xuantai period.
Thousands of miles away, out of a piece of land from the ghost world, the peaks and peaks are like gathering, the mountains are steep and dangerous, the forest and the sea are boundless, you can't see the edge, the sky is low and gloomy, the sky is thundering, splitting between the peaks. It seems that a giant beast is hiding in the mountains and forests, waiting for an opportunity.
When Chu Xiqing was hundreds of miles away, he felt bursts of yang energy, washing away the yin qi on his body that had been contaminated in the ghost world for a long time, and his body and even the primordial spirit felt a burst of warmth.
After completely arriving at that area, Chu Xiqing was amazed at the degree of purity of the yang qi in this place, and there was almost no need to refine it.
He tried to absorb it directly, and suddenly felt a burning sensation in his body and the primordial spirit, he hurriedly stopped, and neutralized it with the yin qi stored in the previous refining, under the harmony of yin and yang, even if he did not operate the yin and yang refining body, the meridians and acupoints were constantly strengthening.
"The yang energy here is too strong! He didn't even invade the ghost world. Chu Xiqing looked at the sky that kept splitting the dazzling thunder and exclaimed.
"There is a formation in the middle, which maintains operation by absorbing the substances produced by the collision and fusion of yin and yang." Bai Duyi explained.
"So Xiao Chen, what are you doing here?" She looked at Chu Xiqing and said.
"A practice requires the refining of yin and yang qi, but this place is too rich, and it is easy to hurt the body, so you have to find a zone where yin and yang are moderate."
As he was talking, suddenly a thunderbolt fell from the sky, and Bai Du struck out with one palm to resist the thunder.
Chu Xiqing was shocked and patted his chest, "Cultivating here is taking your life to cultivate!" ”
"But it can be used to cultivate the Robbery Fist." He thought to himself.
"Located at the junction of the two worlds, the collision of gas and machine will inevitably lead to such a terrifying natural disaster." Bai Duyi shook his hand and turned back.
Returning along the road, after flying for five hundred miles, Chu Xiqing felt that the yin and yang qi here were moderate, so he found a place as a cultivation place, ran the yin and yang refining body, and found that Bai Duyi was standing not far away.
"Sister Bai, you don't have to wait for me, I remember the way."
"It's okay, I don't have anything to do, it's good to look here." Bai Du said softly.
Chu Xiqing also stopped persuading her and began to refine the two qi of yin and yang.
Yin and Yang intertwined, Chu Xiqing's body rose with bursts of light, and wisps of chaotic matter were filled around his body, and then it burrowed into his body, constantly strengthening his physique.
An hour and a half later, Chu Xiqing stopped his cultivation and shook his right hand, and the space in his hand suddenly shook. Chu Xiqing was shocked that he was so strong!
Bai Du looked at him strangely, and muttered, "Xiao Chen, your physical body is very strong, and it is comparable to some ancient fierce beasts in the Wasteland. ”
Chu Xiqing grinned and shook his right arm, "How about trying your fist in the future!" ”
After that, he returned to his own dojo in the ghost world and began to practice the three styles of sword and immortal slashing that the national teacher Chen Shu passed on to him. The sword light flickered, the sword qi was vertical and horizontal, and an invincible sword intent soared into the sky.
Among the three styles of slashing immortals, the first thing he practiced was that type of swordsmanship, which was mysterious and abnormal, although there was only one style, but the technique was close to the Tao, and Chu Xiqing learned many different swordsmanship and sword intent from it.
…………
Eight thousand years ago, the Eastern Ziling Continent, like other continents, was divided by sects and ethnic groups, and it was not until the rise of the Great Yu Dynasty that a thousand years later unified half of the continent, which was considered an organization of different natures.
However, the Dayu Dynasty existed for 4,000 years before it was replaced by the Great Zhou Dynasty, and the Great Zhou Dynasty as a whole followed the Dayu Dynasty until today.
However, compared with many surviving sects and ethnic groups, the Great Third Millennium is like a baby in swaddling clothes, and the age is too short.
Xiyang Luozhou, an ancient sect of the human race that has survived for nearly 10,000 years, the Pingtian Sword Sect, once had good relations with the Dayu Dynasty, and later the Great Zhou replaced the Dayu, but the friendly relations remained unchanged.
The Pingtian Sword Sect is extremely powerful, and it is also an upper-class sect in the entire Xiyang Luozhou, and there is more than one immortal in the sect, and the power is huge.
In the middle of June, an envoy from the Pingtian Sword Sect came to the East Ziling Continent from Xiyang Luozhou through the teleportation formation, and then entered the capital of the Great Zhou Dynasty.
…………
The envoy of the Pingtian Sword Sect was a middle-aged man, named Su Fan, and he saluted to the Great Zhou Emperor Zhou Ruke: "Your Majesty, the Pingtian Sword Sect is willing to cooperate with the Great Zhou to establish an immortal courtyard at the junction of Xiyang Luozhou and East Ziling Continent. ”
Chen Shu and Zhou Ruke looked at each other and smiled, and then Zhou Ruke nodded at Zai Fu Kou Yuan, and began to discuss and suggest.
After a long time, a specific plan appeared, and Su Pan suggested: "Your Majesty, Su thinks that after the completion of the construction, the young monks of each side can enter it as a pioneer team and cultivate for a period of time, so that they can also have a bottom in their hearts." ”
Zhou Ruke discussed with Chen Shu, Chu Xuping, Kou Yuan and others, and they all felt that this move was very good, and finally decided that the Pingtian Sword Sect and the Great Zhou Dynasty would each elect forty-nine people.
Soon after Su Fan, the envoy of the Pingtian Sword Sect, left, Zhou Ruke arranged the selection of forty-nine people and selected them from the entire Great Zhou.
Soon this matter spread throughout the areas where the Great Zhou Qi practitioners were active, and the officials were very efficient, and the capital was naturally the first place to learn about the selection of forty-nine people, followed by various counties, counties, cities and villages.
The entire Great Zhou is boiling, and cultivation needs resources the most, and if you are selected, it means that you can enjoy the first batch of cultivation resources, and you can get the attention of all parties, and your reputation and status will follow.
All forces are intensively planning for this matter, and they have all begun to screen disciples or powerful young juniors. For example, Shenhemen, a powerful young disciple, his father is an immortal crane who has cultivated the Tao, and his mother is a lowly human woman.
Another example is the Immortal Yuan Sect in the southernmost part of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the disciple of the sect leader Li Chu'an, a girl with a blush on her eyebrows, who has recently become famous in the south, with a fast cultivation speed and a genius in cultivation.
"In vain, according to your means, there must be a place." Li Chuan stretched out a finger and pressed his eyebrows lightly.
If someone is here, she will definitely not recognize the current Cao Shu, her temperament has changed greatly, her face seems to be born with a coldness, she nodded lightly, and suddenly she was stunned, thinking of someone.
Chu Xiqing, who was in the capital, naturally heard about it a long time ago, and he asked Chu Xuping for his opinion, and Chu Xuping told him that he could fight for it, and there were many benefits.
Chu Xuping said: "Your cultivation is too low now, you need at least the middle stage of Xuantai, and there will inevitably appear above Xuantai this time." ”
Chu Xiqing asked curiously, "Brother, what's on the Xuantai?" ”
"Above the Xuantai is the realm of the heavenly body, and above the heavenly unity is the realm of the sealed body, and the sealed body is divided into the Dharma body, the golden body and the robbery body, and then upward, that is the tribulation period, if the tribulation period is over...... Then you will become an immortal. ”
After Chu Xuping's introduction this time, Chu Xiqing can be regarded as having an overall understanding of qi practitioners. He suddenly looked forward to the future.
In order to quickly improve his cultivation, Chu Xiqing stayed in the lost land for a longer time, he was not limited to cultivating in the ghost realm dojo, but also began to explore the wasteland and the demon world, of course, with the eldest sister Bai Duyi.
Most of the demons in the demon world are big demons who have transformed into shapes, and their cultivation is extremely high, and there are also little demons who have never been transformed, but they have opened their minds and can speak out of their mouths, and there are a few demons who have adventures and cultivate low but turned into human form, Chu Xiqing and Bai Duyi met a young man named Yu Weiran, who cultivated during the Xuantai period, but he was able to transform into shapes.
They didn't dare to go deep into the demon realm, they only explored a small area, and they actually found the burial place of a fox demon who fell many years ago, and got a strange silver vine, Chu Xiqing and Bai Duyi divided it into two, and each got a share.
In the wasteland, they can't say it's exploration, and as soon as they entered a distance of thousands of miles, they were scared back to the ghost realm by a giant beast, just feeling the breath of the wilderness.
In the past half a month, after Chu Xiqing's unremitting cultivation, he once again refined the two pillars of light, and they became more and more powerful, and he felt that he now even had the strength to fight with the middle stage of Xuantai.
On this day, after Chu Xuping came back from the palace, he found Chu Xiqing and asked, "Brother, remember that I told you that Da Zhou wants to let everyone in the world have an immortal fate, do you want to go and see it?" ”
Chu Xiqing was very yearning for that scene, so he nodded and smiled: "Of course I want to go and see it." ”
So a day later, the two brothers left the capital together.
