Chapter 17: The Secret Story of Cultivating Immortals

"Lord Wu, please deal with the scene, and I will take everyone out of here and go straight to Dujiang City, the capital of Huzhou. Xiang Yunxiang arranged for Wu Tianhong to dispose of the corpses at the scene and the traces caused by the fight, and seemed to have a good idea of how to leave the place.

Wu Tianhong took the order and left, while Zhang Yifan could only stay in place because of his serious injuries and inconvenience, and his expression was tangled at this time.

"Your Highness the Thirteenth, are you really an immortal?" After becoming more familiar with Xiang Yunxiang, Zhang Yifan couldn't help but ask.

"Brother Zhang, don't call me Your Highness in the future, just call me by name. I knew you couldn't bear to ask, haha. Xiang Yunxiang laughed a few times, pondered for a while, and then said to Zhang Yifan.

"Do you know immortal cultivators?"

Seeing Zhang Yifan shaking his head blankly, Xiang Yunxiang continued.

"Brother Zhang, do you know, there is another kind of people in this world, they can soar the clouds and drive the fog, pray for rain and clouds, hold fire and thunder, and even take the enemy's head with a flying sword thousands of miles away. Xiang Yunxiang said fascinatedly.

"Then why do so few people know about the existence of immortal cultivators? Immortal cultivators are so powerful, they should be able to occupy a city and a country, right?" Zhang Yifan asked curiously.

"Everything in the world has its own way, and immortal cultivators also have rules, and I don't know much more details. It is only known that they pursue the Heavenly Dao of immortality, but they also set an iron rule that they must not directly disturb the mortal world, let alone slaughter mortals at will. After all, immortal cultivators are all transformed from mortals, and the truth that the skin does not exist and the hair is attached to it is well known to ordinary people, let alone those who cultivate immortals. ”

"Immortal cultivators are transformed from mortals?" Zhang Yifan was puzzled.

"It seems that Brother Zhang is very interested in this, no matter what, although it is a secret, but you and I are familiar at first sight, I will talk about it in detail. Xiang Yunxiang was obviously in high spirits at the moment.

After listening to what Xiang Yunxiang said, Zhang Yifan knew that this world was so mysterious, and he was so small and weak as a mortal, which made him feel a trace of pride and complacency because of his martial arts, and secretly warned himself not to be complacent.

It turns out that mortals can become immortal cultivators because of spiritual roots.

Mortals with spiritual roots can become immortal cultivators by cultivating immortal methods, while people without spiritual roots can never cultivate immortals.

Everything in the world is impermanent, there are immortal cultivators in the poor countryside, mountains and villages because of their spiritual roots, and there are many prosperous places where graceful officials and nobles in Washington have no spiritual roots.

Ask why, it is because of the spiritual root God, everyone is equal. It's just that this luck is really slim, and those who have spiritual roots are less than one.

Regarding the spiritual root, Xiang Yunxiang actually doesn't know much, only knows that you can't cultivate immortals without spiritual roots, this is the iron rule of heaven. The reason why he is obsessed with this is because he is also a person who has no spiritual roots, and he has been lost for a long time.

As for why Xiang Yunxiang knew so many secrets about immortal cultivators. According to him, according to an ancient book in the palace, he found Huzhou and met his ancestor. This ancestor is an immortal cultivator, and the spiritual root is also what the ancestor probably told him. The ancestor probed his body, and after checking it, he said that he had no spiritual root and had no chance of cultivating immortals.

As for the rune paper that released gray thunder, it was given to it by its ancestors to save its life, called the Yin Thunder Fu, which was a kind of immortal attack talisman, and the Yin Thunder was instantly killed when mortals touched it, and it was extremely powerful.

But because he has no mana, the ancestor taught him the mantra to use his own longevity as a guide to launch the thunder talisman, but the price is a bit large, a yin thunder must cost him five years of life, and the thunder talisman can send ten rounds at most.

Of course, in order to deal with a more powerful enemy, the ancestor taught his method, which can pay ten years of life to increase the power of the Yin Thunder, but the consumption is quite large, and the Yin Thunder Fu can send the ordinary Yin Thunder three times.

In the eyes of his ancestor, as a prince, he has always been closely guarded, and he has ten chances to resolve the crisis, so he should have no worries for the rest of his life.

It's just that it is estimated that even Xiang Yunxiang's ancestor didn't expect it to be, it didn't take long, the consumption of the Yin Thunder Fu had exceeded half, and Xiang Yunxiang had lost his life for twenty-five years, and there was no worse situation than this.

Of course, he didn't say anything about Xiang Yunxiang's ancestor's name, where he was, and what the three black-clothed men came from, and Zhang Yifan couldn't ask about such secrets.

When Zhang Yifan heard Xiang Yunxiang say that immortal cultivators use mana to drive talismana, his heart moved, and the fire flame technique he had cultivated before also said that he cultivated mana, could it be that the two were connected?

Zhang Yifan wanted to continue to ask about the cultivation of immortal mana, but he was afraid that asking too many questions would arouse Xiang Yunxiang's suspicions, so he had to stop talking.

This was obviously not the time to study such things, so he held back his curiosity and waited for the opportunity to study the broken secret book in his hand.

When Wu Tianhong finished dealing with the scene, the conversation between Xiang Yunxiang and Zhang Yifan also ended.

Seeing this, Xiang Yunxiang said to Wu Tianhong: "Lord Wu, at this time in the wilderness, the enemy is in the dark and I am in the light, I don't know what my fifth brother has left, now you and Brother Zhang have lost their combat effectiveness, and I urgently need to recuperate immediately." ”

Wu Tianhong knew that Xiang Yunxiang had something to say, so he took the initiative to say, "What does His Highness the Thirteenth command, the officials should serve to the death." ”

"Lord Wu misunderstood, I have a hundred-mile escape talisman here, which was originally a talisman used by immortal cultivators, but mortals can use essence blood to activate it, and the four of us hugged each other tightly, thinking that we could go to Dujiang City in an instant. ”

"Your Highness understands, please tell Your Highness how to use essence blood to drive the Hundred Miles Escape Talisman. Wu Tianhong replied without hesitation.

So Xiang Yunxiang took out a delicate rune paper and came out, this talisman was extraordinary at a glance, and there was the sound of the wind when you listened carefully.

After the young man surnamed Xiang explained the motivation formula to Wu Tianhong, Wu Tianhong silently recited it, the four of them began to gather together, and Jiao'er grabbed Xiang Yunxiang's back because of his daughter's family.

Wu Tianhong held the escape talisman in his hand, activated the formula, and then saw that his face turned pale instantly, which was obviously a manifestation of excessive loss of essence and blood.

At this moment, the four of them felt an invisible wind and waves surging around them, rising into the air for several feet, so frightened that Jiao'er's eyes were closed, while Zhang Yifan and Xiang Yunxiang were extremely excited. After Wu Tianhong identified the direction, he fled with the wind in an instant, and the speed was extremely fast, flying towards the direction of Dujiang City.

As the surrounding scenery kept moving backwards rapidly, about half an hour, they traveled sixty or seventy miles, when Wu Tianhong suddenly ran towards the ground, and after a while, the four of them stopped on the ground.

Seeing that everyone looked at him suspiciously, he stretched out his hand, and the rune paper turned into ashes and drifted away in the wind.

"Your Highness, the escape charm seems to be invalid. I checked the terrain, and it was still forty or fifty miles away from Dujiang City. Wu Tianhong reported to Xiang Yunxiang.

Xiang Yunxiang felt strange, although this talisman was called a hundred-mile escape talisman, in fact, he heard the ancestor say that it could generally travel more than 120 miles. Although there are four people running at the same time, they are all ordinary people, and the driving distance should be about the same. He was also puzzled for a while, but now was not the time to delve into the matter.

Under the eyes of everyone, he took out another Baili Escape Talisman in pain. Zhang Yifan saw that Wu Tianhong's face was still pale at this time, although he was seriously injured, but his own essence and blood did not have much loss, so he took the initiative to ask Ying to consume his own essence and blood to trigger the Baili Escape Talisman.

Everyone had no objections, and when they were ready, they began the second journey to the sky. It's just that this time the escape talisman is faster, and the speed of the escape is much faster than before, everyone thinks that it is caused by Zhang Yifan's young essence and blood, and they don't think about it.

At this time, if you take a closer look, you will find that although Zhang Yifan's face is very poor, it is not pale, and there is no manifestation of excessive consumption of sperm and blood. It's just that it's late at night, and everyone is preoccupied, so no one notices.

After about a lot of time, in order to avoid being too shocking, everyone went to a mile away from Dujiang City.

"Lord Wu, Brother Zhang, let's go here and separate, thank you two for escorting you all the way, there will be a good reward in the future. Xiang Yunxiang plans to separate here, so as not to enter the city together and be targeted by people with intentions, Wu Tianhong and Zhang Yifan said yes.

Wu Tianhong took Zhang Yifan to the six gates of Dujiang City, and Xiang Yunxiang took Jiao'er back to his secret stronghold in Dujiang City, a mansion located in the north of Sanyuan District.

At this time, Jiao'er was persuading Xiang Yunxiang.

"Your Highness the Thirteenth, if you lose too much longevity, just take the longevity ten years, so that you can also make up for some longevity, don't we bring back two fruits this time, it doesn't matter if you use one. ”

"Little pepper, you don't have to persuade me, I have two useful ones for ten years. According to the plan, I got one dedicated to my father, and now I plan to give one more to the fourth brother, you know, he is small and frail and sickly, and the imperial doctor in the palace said that he is dying, and his life is only forty, and there is a second one that lives for ten years. Xiang Yunxiang said to Jiao'er seriously.

"Your Highness Thirteen, you, alas!" Jiao'er was helpless against his stubbornness.

"Your Highness the Thirteenth, why did you say that the ancestor refused to go out of the mountain to help the emperor. You must know that now the country of Chu is in turmoil, internal and external troubles, as long as the ancestor is willing to take action, the crisis will be resolved. Jiao'er suddenly brought up another thing.

"Jiao'er can't talk about the ancestors. The first is that the old ancestor, as an immortal cultivator, is not interested in the struggle for mundane rights in the world in order to seek immortality, if it weren't for the fact that I am a royal queen, and holding my mother's clan psychic warning jade pendant, so that he has a little bit of incense, otherwise he will not see me at all. The second is to listen to the ancestor and say that monks also have rules, and they must not disturb the court in the world, otherwise they will suffer a great disaster. Xiang Yunxiang analyzed.

"Your Highness the Thirteenth, what kind of psychic warning jade pendant are you, what kind of object is it, it is amazing, it has helped us avoid danger in advance several times, so we were able to enter that place smoothly to see the ancestor. Jiao'er asked curiously.

"I don't know, but when my mother gave me that it was left by a senior in his clan, I could pray for peace, as for the warning, my mother didn't tell me, and then my mother died of illness, and I have been carrying this jade pendant, until I accidentally broke my hand and got blood on the jade pendant, and then this pendant has a warning function. ”

"Is there anything special about that Zhang Yifan, I think Your Highness the Thirteenth is very good to him. ”

"Brother Zhang and I hit it off at first sight and felt very cordial. Through this relationship, I appreciate him even more, and I can take him as a confidant. Little pepper, it's hard to know that it's hard to know a confidant, when it's a big white, you say yes, haha. When it comes to Zhang Yifan, Xiang Yunxiang seems to be particularly interested.

"Still drinking, Your Highness Thirteen, you don't have to think about it in the near future. I've boiled ginseng black chicken soup, and you'll have to drink it all later. When Jiao'er heard that Xiang Yunxiang was going to drink, she couldn't help but glance at him.

"Alas, the days have to endure. ”
