Volume 1: The Elephant of the Circle of Heaven and Earth, Chapter 13: Practicing Spells
Seeing that Liang Cheng made an oath according to his requirements, Shi Meng was very happy. So he took out a small jade slip and handed it to Liang Cheng. Liang Cheng took the jade slip and was stunned, and asked, "What is this?" Shi Meng was surprised: "No, the master of the foundation building period has never even seen this?"
Liang Cheng smiled embarrassedly and said, "I really haven't seen it, and I'm not a master." ”
Shi Meng had no choice but to explain to Liang Cheng the use of this jade slip, it turned out that this is a kind of thing commonly used by cultivators to store information, as long as the jade slip is close to the forehead and the divine consciousness is transported, you can clearly feel the content inside.
Liang Cheng penetrated his divine sense into the jade slip according to his words, and some content immediately appeared in his mind, including the method of how to drip the blood of spiritual objects to recognize the master. Liang Cheng took a closer look, confirmed that he had memorized it, and then withdrew his divine sense, and was about to return the jade slip to Shi Meng, but Shi Meng didn't accept it, and said: "Most of the contents of this jade slip are some common sense at the beginning of cultivation and the basic introduction of the pill talisman, it is not a precious thing, but it is suitable for you now, so I will give it to you." ”
Liang Cheng thanked him and happily took the jade slip into his arms, Shi Meng felt funny, and said, "Why don't you even have a storage bag?"
"Storage bag? What's that?"
"Okay, okay, I'm convinced of you, you can see the jade slip yourself, there are introductions in these, I'll send you back to the Taoist temple now. "In the face of this master in the foundation building period who doesn't know anything, Shi Meng is a little big.
So after casting a spell to send Liang Cheng back to the Immeasurable Temple, Shi Meng took out a small jade waist pendant and handed it to Liang Cheng, sighed and said: "This is my cave space treasure, you take it to recognize the master, these three hundred years, it is up to you to decide." After speaking, the blue light flashed, and he entered the waist pendant.
Liang Cheng picked up the pendant and saw that the shape of the pendant was the same as seen in the painting, which was very exquisite. According to what Yu Jian said, he transported spiritual power and injected it into it. Then he recited the incantation, pricked his finger, and forced out a drop of essence blood and dripped it on the pendant. After a while, the essence blood was sucked into the waist pendant, and at this time, Liang Cheng felt that his mind had established some kind of connection with Shi Meng in the waist pendant, as long as he moved his thoughts, he could communicate with Shi Meng in his divine sense, and he could also enter and exit that space at will. I was amazed, I felt very fresh, and I couldn't help but try to enter and exit the space a few times, and then I happily put the jade waist pendant close to my body. Thinking that there were a lot of things I didn't understand, I took out the jade slip and looked at it carefully.
After watching it for a long time, Liang Cheng finally had some understanding of the cultivation realm, and also figured out what the storage bag was about, it turned out that this was a bag with internal space for storage, injecting a little spiritual power, you can put out various items, according to the different grades, the storage capacity is also different, the more advanced the space, but there are also some restrictions, that is, living things cannot be put inside. But even so, Liang Cheng was also amazed, because the worst storage bag, the internal space inside is also very large, and it can be hung on the waist with a lot of things unimaginable to mortals without revealing the mountains and waters, which is many times more clever than the baggage or something in the mortal world, which is really convenient. Liang Cheng looked at it carefully, and couldn't help but feel chills in his heart about the cultivation realm's strength first, and the people who cultivated the truth deceived each other, cruel and vicious. Thinking of Shi Shuzu's methods to Ah Shen, and then looking at the things recorded in the jade slip, compared with the two, what Shi Shuzu did was really normal, and it was nothing.
After reading it, Liang Cheng fell into a deep groan, "I didn't expect the road to cultivation to be so difficult, is this the path I want to take?"
After thinking about it for a long time, he didn't have an opinion, so he simply looked at Yu Jian again. I saw that the last part was about the cultivation of medicines, the refining of pills, and the production of refining tools and talismans, Liang Cheng was very interested, but unfortunately this jade slip was just a brief introduction, there was no specific content, Liang Cheng secretly thought, if there is a chance in the future, he must try these things.
After reading it all, Liang Cheng put away the jade slip, stood up, and thought to himself that since he had successfully built the foundation, he had to go to the master to report it and see how it would be arranged in the future. So he walked out of the ashram and went to the abbot.
Before entering the abbot where Qingxu was, Qingxu hurriedly greeted him, his face was full of joy, he took Liang Cheng's hand, and said with a smile: "Mingcheng, you really succeeded in building the foundation, and you lived up to the hope of being a teacher, hahaha." ”
Seeing that Master was so happy, Liang Cheng felt a warmth in his heart, and thanked him sincerely: "Thanks to Master's cultivation, Mingcheng is where he is today." ”
"Okay, Mingcheng, you are only fourteen years old to build a successful foundation, in my Miaozhen Yunyin Sect, except for the ancestor Jianji Zhenren, I am afraid that no one can match, you have to do it yourself." ”
"Master," Liang Cheng snorted, "Mingcheng has been away from home for nearly a year, and he misses his parents and family very much, can you let me go home and have a look this time?"
"This. Qingxu's face changed slightly, and he said slowly: "Mingcheng, because you are the key time for you to build your foundation in the past few days, you can't be distracted, and I haven't told you anything for the master, I hope you don't blame the master." ”
Under Liang Cheng's surprised gaze, Qingxu slowly told the story of Liang Cheng's house being destroyed.
Liang Cheng only felt that the world was spinning, tears welled up, his heart was empty, and his eyes were dark, and he didn't know anything.
A few days later, Liang Cheng stood in front of the graves of his parents and family to worship, still sad in his heart, he didn't expect to walk out of the house a year ago, but after coming back this time, he was forever separated by yin and yang. There is nothing left in this earthly world that is nostalgic for itself. Liang Cheng refused his father's old department's arrangements for his future, gave up the court's pension for him, and left Wushengguan without looking back.
There is such a road to go, the future seems to be a smooth road at first, and it may become unpredictable, but Liang Cheng no longer hesitates, the long road to cultivation has begun, so go all the way to the black, no matter what kind of fate awaits him in front of him.
A few months later, in the back mountain of Beishan, where the Infinite View is located, there was a loud bang, the earth and stones flew, and a cloud of smoke and dust was lifted, and after the dust settled, three figures were revealed, respectively, a middle-aged Taoist priest in his forties, a tall man in his thirties, and a young man. These three people are Qingxu and his two apprentices, Lihuo and Liang Cheng. It turned out that during this time, Qingxu had been taking these two apprentices to practice spells in the back mountain, Liang Cheng was learning to use them, and Lihuo was proficient and mastered, and Qingxu took the two of them to guide them together.
Senior Brother Lihuo's eyes showed a look of envy, and he praised in his mouth: "I can't imagine that the fireball technique used by the little junior brother is so powerful, as for Si, the foolish brother is really hard to chase, ashamed and ashamed!"
It turned out that Liang Cheng and Lihuo respectively used the most basic fireball technique against the cliff according to the master's request, and Liang Cheng's fireball technique was so powerful that the senior brother was shocked by the fire.
Qingxu Twist said with a smile: "It seems that there is only a line between the early stage of foundation building and the late stage of Qi training, but there is a big realm separating them, and it is not the same. Leaving the fire, speaking of which, you have also advanced to the late stage of Qi cultivation for many years, but you have always been a line away from the realm of the Great Perfection in the late stage of Qi training, and you have not been able to advance an inch for several years. You have to work hard to cultivate and strive to build a foundation as soon as possible. ”
"Yes, Master, the disciples must remember the teachings and work hard. He replied with a bow.
"Hmm. Qingxu nodded, and said: "This time the talent meeting of the sect will start soon, I will send the two of you to participate in the conference, and I will leave for Yunyin Island in the East China Sea in the near future, you must work hard to fight for the master and the main island." ”
Liang Cheng was stunned, thinking that he was going to leave this hometown where he was born and raised, and he couldn't help but think about it for a while.
Qingxu saw Liang Cheng's mood fluctuating, so he encouraged: "Mingcheng, since you have embarked on the road of cultivation, then you can't limit yourself to this small southwest corner. Well, don't talk about the world, our cultivators are acting against the sky, believing that my life is up to me, not by the sky, and the upper is straight to Xiaohan, down to the Nine Secluded Underground Mansion, as long as it is necessary for cultivation, we have to break through, there is no taboo. What will you do if you follow the teacher in this little immeasurable view? When you arrive in your own sect, that is a good place to display your talents and ambitions. ”
Seeing that the master said heroically, Liang Cheng couldn't help but be broad-minded, and couldn't help nodding yes.
Lihuo laughed a few times beside him, and said a little sourly: "Yes, junior brother, it's up to you this time." Foolish brother is mediocre, this time I am lucky to enter the sect I am afraid that I will not do anything, that is, I will just help you. ”
Qingxu Zhengse said: "Lihuo, no matter how bad you are, you are also a senior brother, how can you be arrogant and say such unambitious words?
Then the sleeves of his robe waved, and he chanted loudly: "Ganluo has early hair and late teeth, and Peng Zuyan has an uneven life. Kuaitong is down-to-earth and rich, and the eight characters are born at their own times. ”
Seeing that he was red, his face was flushed, and he didn't know what to say, but his eyes swept Liang Cheng with some jealousy, Liang Cheng saw this in his eyes, but his expression remained unchanged, and he said in his heart: "It seems that the senior brother is a little jealous of me, I should be careful in the future." ”
"Okay, you two practice spells well during this time. Qingxu said: "About a month later, you will set off for the East China Sea, this trip, it is better to be away from the fire, after all, after going out for a few years, Mingcheng is the first time to go far away, I am really relieved to be a teacher." At that time, the Taiqing Master and Uncle Ancestor will lead you to set off, and you can take care of the two of you on the way, and you must listen to the arrangements of the Master and Uncle Ancestor along the way, and don't cause trouble! You must know that in this inland land, our Yunyin Sect can be regarded as an outlier, and the various Xiuzhen sects in the mainland are somewhat hostile to us, so you must be cautious in your words and deeds, and do not easily expose your bottom, so as not to cause trouble and delay the major affairs of the sect. ”
