Chapter 20: The Secret of the Lotus Flower

In the entire Chinese continent, there are countless cultivators of various cultivation methods, and all kinds of cultivation skills are like a hundred flowers blooming. Among them, the vast majority of them cultivate in a down-to-earth manner, and there are many who rely on pills to improve their cultivation to the realm that they only pursue, but such cultivators are usually counted among the orthodox cultivators.

Like the more heterogeneous cultivation methods, in addition to the Southern Xinjiang Gu Technique, the Alien Cultivators also include the hateful - Blood Cultivation.

Blood cultivation is an out-and-out demonic path. If it is said that the Southern Xinjiang Gu Technique and the Alien can play the edge ball of the orthodox cultivation method, which is roughly regarded as a cultivation method recognized by some people in the world, then blood cultivation is a cultivation method that no one recognizes or even spurns.

Similar to the cultivation realm of pills, blood cultivation is a bit like the vampires in the West, blood cultivation has existed in the world since ancient times, and what they pursue in cultivation is the way of bloodline. Through captivity, talented and excellent bloodline people are their own furnaces, and then pick an auspicious day of the zodiac or something, and refine people. The people who have been refined have undoubtedly not been turned into dried corpses. The blood veins in the body were sucked clean by the blood cultivator. No one can approve of this kind of disguised way of killing people to increase cultivation, except for blood cultivation itself, of course.

Generally speaking, although the lotus seal is one of the imprints, it is also closely related to the bloodline. You must know that after the lotus imprint is imprinted into the bone marrow, every cell in the body, and the meridians, the whole person becomes a legendary powerhouse. That ability to shatter the void with one hand is the dream of thousands of cultivators. And the degree of cherishing of the lotus seal is no less than that of any genius earth treasure below the god level. After all, the winning rate of one in a million can be imagined. The old smoker naturally wouldn't tell Ye Xingchen that there was a lotus mark in his body, and this thing was innocent and guilty. If it is discovered by a well-known blood cultivator, or taken away by a master. This Ye Xingchen's current cultivation is to make wedding dresses for others, and his life is not guaranteed.

Regarding what the old smoker said, Ye Xingchen seemed to understand a little bit anyway, as if he had some treasure on his body.

"That's right" Ye Xingchen took out the Guixin Lotus, and said with a smile, "Old smoker, shouldn't you teach me alchemy?" I saw the old smoker take a puff of cigarette, and then after spitting out a circle, he said angrily, "You are late, so the previous agreement is all null and void." ”

"Huh?" Ye Xingchen's face was sad, as if the millions had just disappeared, and then sighed, "It's not good to blame me, since you don't want to teach me, old smoker, then my heart lotus is useless, give it to you" After speaking, he handed the heart lotus to the old smoker. But I saw that the old smoker raised his eyebrows, this heart lotus is not an ordinary medicinal material, so it was sent like this?

The old smoker said, "Little baby, this heart lotus is very precious, you just gave it to me this bad old man?" The old smoker's eyes were delicate, and he didn't want to miss Ye Xingchen's expression and eyes.

Ye Xingchen nodded and said, "I missed the appointment first, and now you don't want to teach me, then I can't force it, just give it to you." The old smoker's sloppy old face seemed to have a smile, but his face was very serious. Suddenly stood up, "You come with me." Ye Xingchen followed.

The two of them actually went to the house where the old smoker often played mahjong, and he said to Ye Xingchen You do me a favor, and I will teach you alchemy. And this favor made Ye Xingchen hold back his smile for a long time, because the old smoker wanted to help him when he was playing mahjong, so that Ye Xingchen helped the old smoker cheat through his facial features and subtle movements of gestures on the grounds of pouring water.

With the close cooperation of the two, the old smoker won a lot of money, and he was very angry.

Wutai Mountain, a peak. Night.

The old smoker walked with the steps of not recognizing his six relatives, and Ye Xingchen followed the old smoker to Yifeng Mountain, where he had come before. This is the territory of the leopard.

The former shuttles through the woods. After looking around, I finally picked a clearing.

"Hurry up, little baby"

The old smoker's urging voice sounded in Ye Xingchen's ears. Ye Xingchen quickened his pace, and when he walked into the distance of about ten meters from the old smoker, the old smoker suddenly made a seal with his hands.

With the two of them as the center of the circle, a light blue shield appeared silently around the two of them, directly separating the fallen leaves piled up on the ground, and suddenly forming a semi-circle shape to protect the two of them.

"This is?" Ye Xingchen's eyes narrowed, and he immediately thought of the light blue "wall" that he passed through the day when he was directly serving wine in the village, and said, "Formation?"

The old smoker said disdainfully, "Old man, although I am a little sloppy and not strong in cultivation, I have been chasing the realm of the Nine Rank Array Master and the Nine Rank Alchemist all my life, so this kind of gadget is not a formation." ”

Ye Xingchen pursed his lips and said, "Gadget, can I try his power?" When he saw the old smoker's playful expression, he was still a little unhappy in his heart.

"You try"

Ye Xingchen snorted coldly, approached the light blue shield, snorted softly, and his right hand suddenly made a fist, and a bronze fist shadow suddenly burst out.

"Bang" The bronze fist shadow intersected with the shield, and the shield was like a ripple of water, and after a muffled sound, the ripples disappeared.

"It's amazing!" Ye Xingchen was surprised, and immediately thought of the formation that the old smoker directly placed under the wine, and asked, "This thing seems to be different from the previous one, the previous formation seems to be colorless, and Ling'er took me through it easily, why is this?"

The old smoker seemed to extinguish the cigarette gun gracefully. It's just that the sloppy old face and elegant movements are not very coordinated. Said proudly: "The array moves as you like." I want the formation to be visible to you, you can see it, I don't want you to see it, you naturally can't see it, unless you cultivate many times higher than me, or the formation attainment is higher than mine, you can find out where this formation is. That day's formation, Ling'er will also be furious, so it can take you to break the formation. ”

Ye Xingchen nodded and withdrew his fist. The bronze color disappeared suddenly, and Ye Xingchen said to the old smoker, "What are you taking me here?"

The former seemed to be addicted to smoking, and casually lit the cigarette gun with a flame in his hand and smoked it. Ye Xingchen's eyes lit up, this empty-handed fire, immortal!

"Don't you want to learn alchemy, are you interested in learning the formation together?"

"What! Teach me the alchemy formation together?" Ye Xingchen's heart beat faster, and his breathing began to be short, is this day finally coming? From the first day he went to the old smoker's house until now, Ye Xingchen didn't want to learn alchemy for a moment, his alchemy was genuinely for his family. Father, mother and brother. Thinking of his family, Ye Xingchen's mood gradually calmed down.

And this formation was something Ye Xingchen had never thought of. Don't pressure yourself with a lot of skills, since you buy one get one free, you are naturally embarrassed to shirk it.

"Old smoker, do you want to teach me alchemy and formation?" Ye Xingchen kept blinking and looked at the old smoker with a smile on his face. Unexpectedly, the old smoker's old face shook, and he said, "If you release my pigeon, I will naturally not teach you"

Ye Xingchen couldn't help twitching the corners of his mouth, and sneered, "If you don't teach me, why are you bringing me here?" I saw the former say lightly, "For the sake of you playing mahjong just now to help me out, I will let you learn alchemy and formation by yourself." ”

"Hehe" Ye Xingchen couldn't help sneering again, and said, "You are an immortal, I have no teacher, I don't have that ability." Ye Xingchen is now very sure that the old smoker just brought him over to see the formation at hand, just joking. How is this possible?

In the entire continent, how many self-taught alchemists and array mages can there be? If everyone can do these two hot professions by self-study, wouldn't there be alchemists and array mages everywhere, and these two professions will still be valuable? Even if they are truly gifted and demonic, I am afraid that they will not be able to understand the mysteries of alchemy and formation in a few decades, right?

The old smoker didn't like to hear this, his face shook suddenly, and he shouted softly at the latter, "Sit down!" Ye Xingchen suddenly didn't have time to react, his body needed to sit cross-legged magically, and he sat on the ground with a "snap".

The former stretched out his wrinkled index finger and gently tapped it at the center of Ye Xingchen's eyebrows.

"Boom, boom, boom", a burst of violent force produced bursts of explosions in Ye Xingchen's mind. Immediately, Ye Xingchen's consciousness began to be confused.

That hurricane-like power of hesitation was golden in Ye Xingchen's mind. The golden hurricane swept through every place in Ye Xingchen's mind, making Ye Xingchen's face blue and white.

Ye Xingchen's immature face began to feel pain, but he was still gritting his teeth.

When the old smoker saw this scene, there was a smile on the corner of his mouth. With this young man's soul, it is indeed good to be able to persist in cultivation. Even if you are a genius, if you don't work hard, you are no different from waste.

The golden hurricane has been sweeping for a long time, and it shows no signs of stopping. Beads of sweat flowed from Ye Xingchen's head, who was sitting on the ground. Apparently the pain has been getting worse.

When the golden hurricane swept through Ye Xingchen's mind, there was a scene where Ye Xingchen was slapped half to death by the old man Li Hefa in Canglong River, and Ye Xingchen's memory seemed to be completely opened.

Ning Qizhong. School violence. Family.

The old smoker frowned, although he had already felt that Ye Xingchen's strange clothes should not belong to this plane, but he actually searched Ye Xingchen, and he also knew a lot about him thoroughly.

Immediately, he couldn't help but laugh and said, "I see, this kind of good seedling actually came from that plane." ”

The golden hurricane swept away Ye Xingchen's mind in a fast posture, and Ye Xingchen's face was already pale at this time. The body is also a little shaky.

The old smoker finally snorted and withdrew his index finger from the center of the former's brow.

Immediately, I saw Ye Xingchen fall directly to the ground.

When Ye Xingchen fainted, the old smoker's old face didn't seem to look very good, obviously the whole series of events surrounding Ye Xingchen seemed a little unbelievable.

As for the affairs of the two planes, as an old smoker, he naturally knows about it. That's why you will learn about many secrets of the Lotus Seal. However, from the campus violence that Ye Xingchen came into contact with, meeting Chen Yun of the Chen family, Canglongjiang being beaten, falling into the river, giving birth to this plane Lishan Village, stepping into the ranks of cultivators, and defeating Fu Tai, all kinds of events are too coincidental.

Could it be that there is only providence in the dark? The old smoker sighed lightly, looked up at the night sky, and muttered, "What do you want to do?"

After a long time, Ye Xingchen finally woke up, and he felt a lot of things in his mind. It's like your brain is stuffed. Although I suddenly found a very powerful book in my mind. This book made him exclaim

"Compendium of Materia Medica?!"
