Chapter 14: The Sword Daphnia King
Liu Hanyan got the trial task this time, which made her bored, but hateful, it turned out to be to kill an adult sword water flea (zao) king, also known as the silver spider king, is a very strange carnivorous demon beast, the strength is about the seventh layer of qi refining to the eighth layer of qi refining, the most important thing is that this kind of demon beast has a characteristic, it will be dormant when it encounters damage, and it is very tricky.
The male of the sword daphnia king is easy to distinguish, the first pair of antennae or the first right antennae is the holding limb, the individual is much larger than the female, regardless of male and female, both are covered with waterproof fluff, can walk on the water surface at will, when diving into the water, the fluff is attached to many bubbles, similar to a cover closed by an air layer, in the water, the air cover makes the sword daphnia king into a silver water ball, plus the appearance is similar to a spider, so it is also called the "silver spider king".
Ling Feng checked the information about the Silver Spider King in detail, and found that the female of this demon beast was almost immune to poison, but the male was not like this, as long as it was reasonably poisonous, it could be easily killed, and he happened to be in the dark green python cave mansion, and he got a purple black snake gall and dark green inner pill, both of which were colorless and odorless poisonous things.
It's just that with highly poisonous things, Liu Hanyan can find a lot, but there is one thing, she can't find the right person.
There is an unwritten rule within the sect that when the inner disciple tries the task, he cannot ask the elders or high-level monks to assist in the trial, and he can only bring disciples with a lower realm than himself, this rule is very reasonable, otherwise find a master and brother at random, and the task will not be completed in three or two clicks, and the meaning of the trial will be lost.
Monks in the seventh-layer realm of Qi refining without leakage can hide their breath and spiritual power as much as possible, making it not easy to be discovered, and sometimes they can be fatal with one blow, compared with demon beasts, in the same realm, brute strength and body are much stronger than human monks, but their spiritual intelligence and means are much lower. Liu Hanyan is currently bored with about two points:
First, even if you find the Silver Spider King, you can't determine its specific location, and if you don't have spiritual or divine sense, you can't find the demon beast that has cultivated into a true body without leakage.
Second, even if the location is determined, it is difficult to kill with one hit.
Ling Feng happens to be able to do the above two things perfectly, and all of them have self-confidence and can help Liu Hanyan complete the trial.
However, these secrets on Ling Feng's body could not be easily revealed.
Facing Liu Hanyan's aggressive gaze, Ling Feng was also under a lot of pressure, after all, he was talking on paper, and it was false if he was not empty-hearted, but he was suffering from old diseases, and he couldn't take care of a lot, so he replied with a firm gaze:
"Senior sister, don't worry, as long as I know the approximate location of the Silver Spider King, I have a secret method to find out its exact location, and there are highly poisonous things that can temporarily paralyze it, I don't have the slightest benefit from deceiving my senior sister, I only need three Yundao Pills"
It's no wonder that Ling Feng opened his mouth, just as the so-called sky-high asking price was to pay back the money on the spot, but unexpectedly, this woman had not refined her brain by cultivation, and she gave Ling Feng a jade bottle with a shake of her hand, which contained three Yundao Pills.
The corners of Liu Hanyan's mouth showed a hint of a smile, the three Yun Dao Dan are dispensable for her, in case it can really be as she said, but she has a good helper, if she deceives herself, as long as he is in the outer courtyard, there is a way to torture him, and he has to go to Shizun today, he can't delay, he turned around and walked out of the door.
Watching the beauty leave, Ling Feng took the jade bottle in his hand, and had a bad premonition for a while, and suddenly Liu Hanyan's voice sounded in his ears: "In three months, I will come to the door to find you, and I will do the trial task with me at that time."
Not long after, Liu Hanyan came to the side of Elder He Hong, and said respectfully: "As ordered by the master, I have handed over three Yundao Pills to that little guy."
He Hong nodded slightly.
Ling Feng got the pill he had always wanted, and couldn't wait to return to his courtyard, ready to take it, closed the gate of the courtyard, and called Mo Tianli to help protect the Dharma, everything was ready, Ling Feng sat cross-legged on his knees, and took a Yundao pill.
In the blink of an eye, an hour passed, and Mo Tianli outside the room was worried, and Ling Feng didn't move at all inside.
At this time, Ling Feng, after taking the pill, suddenly felt cool in his body, and the Jade Sutra Shangju traveled in the whole body eighty-one times with the power of medicine, and the meridians of the whole body were damaged, and it was obviously repaired a lot, but it was not enough, and after taking three Yundao Pills in a row, three hours later, a pleasant laughter came out of the room, and Mo Tianli outside the door listened to the Tao, and he was also happy in his heart, and finally Ling Feng's hidden danger was pulled out, and he could also let go.
After a few days of worry and melancholy, she was relaxed, and she hadn't had a good rest for a long time, at this moment, Mo Tianli leaned against the door and slept quietly, Ling Feng quietly hugged her light body horizontally, sent her back to her room, covered the quilt, and gently retreated.
This time the healing was very successful, not only did the scabies go away, the meridians of the whole body were expanded, and his fifth-layer realm of qi refining was completely stable, however, the trial after three months was not trivial, it was a difficult hurdle that the disciples of the seventh layer of qi refining could not pass, and the strength of the fifth layer of qi refining was difficult to protect itself, and when the time came, others would only use themselves as cannon fodder, and there were still three months to go, and they needed to strengthen their strength urgently.
At this time, in the side hall of the True Immortal Palace, Bai Yunsheng was sitting opposite to Zhang Daozong, the elder of law enforcement, the two were playing chess, as if inadvertently, Bai Yunsheng said: "This time, in the ceremony of accepting apprentices, many people died in the Shangguan family, in order to compensate them, Shangguan Yi and Shangguan Feiyu both entered the outer gate directly, you have to take care of it more."
"In addition, there is a new outer disciple, from the trial to the present, his cultivation has been promoted from the third layer of qi induction to the fifth layer of qi refining, go and investigate"
Zhang Daozong nodded, and the two continued to play chess.
There is no time for cultivation, and today is the day to listen to the sermon in the Gonggong Hall, and the disciples did not dare to slack off, so they came to this black palace early, found their futon, sat down, and waited for the start.
The person who came to preach today is an ordinary elder, whose appearance is about thirty or forty years old, but after the foundation is built, age and appearance do not necessarily correspond, medium stature, short hair like steel needles, deep eyes, high nose bridge, well-defined contours, revealing a masculine beauty. It is said that this elder's name is He Ji, and he is the nephew of He Hong, the worldly elder of the Gong Transmission Sect, who has already cultivated in the middle stage of foundation building, and is one of the backbone figures of the Daoist Sect.
He Ji sat down, the disciples met with the elders, and the sermon began:
"From today onwards, in the future, new outer disciples will teach the exercises, and I will teach them."
"Today, let's start with the monks, the choice of exercises, and the impact on the foundation building in the future."
As mentioned above, the level of the exercises in the cultivation realm is divided according to the highest level reached by those who practice this exercise, which is not strict, but it is still generally accurate.
From the Qi refining period, the monk has a direct foundation or Jindan, or even Yuanying exercises, twice the result with half the effort, and there is no need to change the exercises after the foundation is built.
When a monk builds a foundation, his comprehension of the Great Dao and his understanding of his own exercises will be deeply reflected on the foundation of his own Dao, if the exercises are contrary to the foundation of his own Dao, they need to replace the exercises, which is very rare, because the deeper the cultivation of a kind of exercise, the deeper the understanding of the corresponding Dao of the exercises, and the same line when building the foundation.
Ling Feng was very excited and surprised in his heart, the second time he listened to Zhuji's powerful preaching, He Ji's specific and detailed speech benefited him a lot, and he took a lot of detours.
Two hours of preaching, hurriedly, He Ji this time mainly talked about the problems to pay attention to during the Qi refining period, and how to deal with the foundation building in the future, take precautions, there is a world of difference between having a master and practicing alone.
As for the exercises, it is the second article of the exercises, "Xuantian Qingwei Heart Formula", this exercise can go directly to the Jindan Avenue, peaceful and upright, cultivation, it is not easy to go mad, the foundation is deep, but the progress is slow. The first three chapters of this heart decision correspond to the qi refining period, and the outer disciples can only learn the first three articles, and the follow-up exercises can only be learned after their own realm is promoted.
Outer disciples who have adventures or are knowledgeable can not change their cultivation, but they must not be absent from listening to the teachings. Between different exercises, they can confirm each other, before the foundation was built, all kinds of advanced exercises were similar, paying attention to the deep foundation, the difference is that some focus on spiritual power, some focus on magic, some focus on metal, some focus on wood attributes, and that's it.
Ancient legends say that the human body is a Taoist body, with a spiritual root, and can only practice the exercises that fit the body, and after thousands of years of development, they are gradually eliminated, and the cultivation world truly realizes that whether the exercises fit in with themselves or depends on the foundation of their own avenue, therefore, after building the foundation, the monks will develop in different directions.
As for why he directly taught the second part of the Heart Decision, it was because when the outer disciples tried the first level, the rough and shallow exercise used for the trialist to sense the aura was the first part of this heart trick, and Ling Feng knew that he had practiced the Jindan Exercise during the trial, and he was stunned.
Three hours passed in a hurry, and Ling Feng was still unfinished, but this time the hearing was over.
Ling Feng had already refined Qi in the fifth-layer Bigu Realm, so he didn't need to go to the cafeteria to eat like a senior brother below the fifth layer, but went back to the courtyard directly, carefully studied the first two articles of the "Xuantian Qingwei Heart Formula", pondered it carefully for a while, sat cross-legged on his knees, mobilized his spiritual power, and started to operate.
