Chapter Twenty-Seven: A Thousand Feet Diving
On the way back, Yan Jingchen was thinking about the conspiracy intentions laid out by the Baili family and the matter between himself and Baili Rong.
One thing is for sure, within the Lu Clan, Bai Li Rong should not oppose herself, after all, she has just entered the sect and has no foundation. But thinking of the Baili group in the Qiu family sect that Cao Qianyan said, I had another headache.
A person who can win the top spot in the Immortal Emperor City's newcomer trial must not be an ordinary person, and these things need to be prepared in advance.
Yan Jingchen returned to his residence and counted all the things stored in the storage porcelain bottle. Some of the elixirs that he had received from You Fang Zhenren to recover from his injuries, the Nine Shadows Fruit and the 'Flying Rain' sword that Jiang Ai had given him, and the strange wooden plaque that he had picked up from the Dao Yuan Immortal Shop.
At present, his hole cards are still too few, Yan Jingchen sighed, looking at the things he put on the table. Now the only thing he can use is the Nine Shadow Fruit and the 'Flying Rain' Sword, and just as he picked up the Nine Shadow Fruit and prepared to refine it, a familiar voice came from outside the house.
"Shizun is married, why don't you come out quickly to greet you. This voice is extremely good, like a fairy music in the sky, Yan Jingchen knew that it was his master Jiang Wei who was here when he heard it, and hurriedly collected his things and went out to greet him.
Walking out of the door, Yan Jingchen saw that Jiang Ai did not come alone, and there was a Baili Rong who he didn't want to see the last thing standing beside her, although he hadn't come up with a way to deal with the Baili family, but it was a matter of time before he met Bai Lirong, Yan Jingchen asked knowingly: "Congratulations to the master for accepting the beloved apprentice again, I don't know what to call the little junior sister." ”
When he said the three words of the little junior sister, he deliberately accentuated his tone, which was to remind Bai Lirong not to play any tricks in the sect. Jiang Ai didn't know the relationship between the two, and replied with a smile: "Today's big thing, how can you leave the scene early, it's a shame that you, the senior sister of Baili Rong, are still worried about getting to know you, the only senior brother in the sect." ”
Yan Jingchen said in her heart, she is thinking about knowing me, and she is obviously here to touch my old bottom. Although he thought so in his heart, he still politely greeted Baili Rong.
Jiang Ai couldn't help but feel comfortable when he saw that the disciples respected each other like guests. She said to Bai Lirong: "Your senior brother, he doesn't practice with us on weekdays, so the teacher also comes here regularly to guide his cultivation. ”
Then she took out a cloth bag from the storage artifact on her body and handed it to Yan Jingchen and said: "This is your sect reward this month, you must practice well in the future, after the sect initiation ceremony is over, it will be the newcomer trial in a few months, you have to behave well, and if you are confused about your cultivation in the past few days, tell the teacher to listen." ”
If you want to talk about the confusion in cultivation, of course Yan Jingchen has it, such as the buds that grow on his 'Dao seed', the way to ascend to the Dao realm, etc., but in front of Baili Rong, he will not be relieved to say these things, so he has to answer: "The disciple's cultivation is shallow, and there has been no major improvement in the past few days since he joined the sect, so he has not encountered any confusion yet." ”
Jiang Wei glanced at Yan Jingchen, because she could clearly feel that Yan Jingchen had begun to impact the Lidao Realm, how many difficulties there were, she was very clear, seeing that Yan Jingchen didn't ask questions, she had no choice but to say no more, but her heart was full of questions.
After explaining the matter, Jiang Ai took Baili Rong and left. Yan Jingchen's face was bitter, this Baili Rong also delayed his practice too much, the "Tianrui Sutra" given to him by the village chief at the beginning can only be said to be a general outline of practice, and there is no record of the details encountered in the practice, after all, everyone's situation is different.
took his sect's reward back to the house, Yan Jingchen opened the cloth bag, and after seeing the things inside, his eyes suddenly lit up, the sect's reward turned out to be five second-order demon beasts' inner pills, Yan Jingchen couldn't wait to take off the eye of ten thousand laws on his neck, and slowly fused it with the demon pill, and the long-lost magic array lines gradually appeared on the surface of the eye of ten thousand laws.
The newcomer trial of the five major sects will generally be held before the Midyear Festival, and the monks who participate are limited to the new disciples recruited that year, of course, it does not mean that everyone is eligible to participate.
In the past month, with the assistance of the Eye of Ten Thousand Laws, Yan Jingchen's Dao power has accumulated to a terrifying level, and every meridian in his body has swelled like a dragon, terrifying and majestic.
On this day, Yan Jingchen went out early and did not practice again, because no matter how hard he practiced, his realm and Dao power would not increase again, and the excess Dao power would be discharged from his body along his pores, which was the consequence of his lack of understanding of the 'Dao Species'.
Thinking that his cultivation could not go further, Yan Jingchen was quite bored, so he wandered aimlessly around the Lu clan. When I passed by the 'Dragon Bridge', I suddenly thought of the legend under the 'Dragon Bridge', and I couldn't help but be curious and wanted to find out. On that day, Senior Brother Huang, who took them to the Yang Temple, once said that his cultivation was too low to go down to the waterfall to investigate.
Yan Jingchen also had no bottom in his heart, that Senior Brother Huang said that his cultivation was low, it depended on who he was compared with, anyway, he was a cut above himself. After walking along the 'Dragon Bridge' for a while, and came to the place where the dragon rose that day, Yan Jingchen looked around, but found no place to climb, and most of the energy in his heart was gone.
'Boom!'
The huge water column rose again, and Yan Jingchen was not afraid this time, but carefully observed the changes in the water column. The water column remained in the air for a while, turning into a dragon before dissipating.
Yan Jingchen stood on the bridge and thought about how to go down to the bottom of the 'Dragon Bridge', and then he had a flash of inspiration, he thought of a feasible way, it is better to do an experiment in this matter first, otherwise if you act rashly, I am afraid that you will give up your life.
Just do it when you think of it, Yan Jingchen didn't know where to move, moved a stone, took it in his hand and padded it, which was not much different from his own weight. Then he attached a trace of his Dao power to the surface of the stone, so that he could sense the condition of the stone within a thousand feet.
After making preliminary preparations, all that remains is to wait for the opportunity, Senior Brother Huang said that this water column will erupt every once in a while, so he has to calculate the interval between each eruption, how much time is it.
Sitting on the stone, Yan Jingchen silently calculated the interval of the dragon-shaped water column in front of him, and after looking at it a few times, he had the answer in his heart, and picked up the stone on the ground and threw it under the bridge.
The stone fell vertically through the dense water vapor. Yan Jingchen sensed the location of the stone with his divine sense, and after three breaths, a powerful stream of water hit the stone and pushed it back. After Yan Jingchen sensed these situations, he smiled at the corner of his mouth, and said in his heart, I can easily deal with the impact of this intensity.
The water column dragged the stone all the way up, and finally dragged it back again, and then the water column disappeared, and the stone fell again, this is the last step in Yan Jingchen's plan, measure how high this bridge deck is from the water surface.
One breath, two breaths...... After a full nine breaths, Yan Jingchen was about to lose his sense of the existence of the stone, and a bad premonition rose in his heart, could it be that the drop of this waterfall was as high as a thousand zhang away.
In the tenth breath, just when Yan Jingchen wanted to give up, the stone finally touched the surface of the water, and the speed of the fall began to slow down, and after a few breaths, Yan Jingchen could no longer sense the existence of the stone. He breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately, the impact of the water column just now was not very strong, and he should be able to withstand it if he jumped a little earlier this time.
After making up his mind, Yan Jingchen stood on the bridge railing and waited for the time for the next water column to erupt. After waiting for a while, Yan Jingchen suddenly heard footsteps coming from the bridge, so he turned his head to see that the person who came was wearing a yellow coat, and it was Senior Brother Huang who sent them to the Yang Temple that day.
The man in yellow also saw Yan Jingchen on the bridge railing, and was very puzzled by his behavior, so he asked, "Senior Brother Yan, what are you doing here?"
Yan Jingchen just smiled at him and didn't say much, calculated the time and jumped off the 'Dragon Bridge' directly. The man in yellow was horrified, and rushed forward to grab Yan Jingchen who jumped down, but his speed was still a little slower after all, even if he had used the power of the 'primer technique', he couldn't leave Yan Jingchen behind.
Besides, Yan Jingchen at this time, when he fell for two or three breaths, he regretted it a little, because the stone that he had marked with Dao power could sense it again. He said in his heart that when the water column rises later, he will not bring it with him. In this kind of falling environment, I am not sure that I can use magic to deal with it 100%.
Eventually, what had worried him happened, and when he descended to the seventh breath, the water jet erupted again, and this time with the stone.
Yan Jingchen couldn't manage so much at this time, and took out the 'Flying Rain' sword from the storage porcelain bottle, which was already the last trick he could use.
"Bang!"
The powerful stream of water rushed towards Yan Jingchen with the stones, and he held the 'Flying Rain' sword in his hand and slashed towards the stones. The 'Rain' sword was extremely sharp, and it easily slashed the stone into two sections, but he ignored the fact that although the stone was cut off, it did not leave the range of his body, but split into two parts, and smashed into his abdomen and head.
In the panic, Yan Jingchen held his head in his hands, and his body, which had been polished by the Cleansing Pill, at least made his muscles and bones much stronger than others. Immediately after that, a sharp pain came from his abdomen and elbow, and Yan Jingchen, who was hit, only felt a burst of blood surge, spit out a mouthful of blood, and his consciousness gradually blurred, and vaguely he saw a cyan dragon jumping out of the waterhole under the waterfall and catching his falling body.
When Yan Jingchen saw Qinglong for the second time, he was already in a huge cave. He looked at the cyan dragon in front of him that exuded supreme coercion, and said cautiously, "Thank you, the dragon senior's life-saving grace." ”
The green dragon shook its huge mountain-like body, and slowly moved in front of Yan Jingchen's body in extreme horror, using a special method to directly convey the message it wanted to express to Yan Jingchen's mind.
After understanding what Qinglong meant, Yan Jingchen waved his hand and said unconcernedly: "Since the dragon senior likes it, the 'flying rain' will be given to the senior, but why are you trapped in the cave under this waterhole, senior?"
