Chapter 22: The Realm
As soon as the early sun rose, Lin Qiuzhi was woken up by his senior brother Mu Ren, and the soreness in his body hit, feeling that his hands and feet were not his own, thinking of yesterday's devastation, and going through it again today, Lin Qiuzhi had the heart to die.
The senior brother outside the door was still urging, Lin Qiuzhi could only get up from the bed with difficulty, and after washing up, he walked towards the door. As soon as he got out of the room, he saw that the senior brother and the second senior brother were already standing at the door waiting for him, the senior brother Muren was still as kind as ever, but the second senior brother Song Yi had a red face and an excited look, and he did not hesitate to give himself a smile to the little junior brother who had never said a word, and said cordially, "Good morning, little junior brother." "The tone of the voice, if it is seen by people who do not know, they will think that the two have known each other for a long time.
Lin Qiuzhi was still not used to the enthusiasm of the second senior brother, so he said respectfully, "Second senior brother is early." ”
Mu Ren laughed out loud when he saw this, and solved Lin Qiuzhi's confusion, it turned out that this Song Yi was taught by the master yesterday, not only was he recognized by the master, but also had a long-awaited matching sword, and this matching sword was naturally from Jian Tan.
The swords in the sword Tan are not ordinary, and the swords in the Sword Tan are divided into three categories, divine weapons, spiritual weapons, and magic weapons. Divine soldiers are rare in the world, and if the instrument spirit does not produce spiritual intelligence, it is not worthy of being called a divine soldier. The machine spirit is one in a hundred, and if it is difficult to produce the machine spirit, it is not an exaggeration to call it one in ten thousand, and there are only two divine weapons included in the sword tan. One is the head of the hundred soldiers, 'Tianwen', since the dawn of the sword, has been ownerless, and the other is 'Han Su', although the same is a divine soldier, it is indeed much weaker than Tianwen, but it is also rare in the world, but it already has a master.
The spiritual weapon is naturally the magic weapon that is born in the spirit to be called a spiritual weapon, and the magic weapon is a commonly used weapon for cultivators, and Song Yi naturally holds a magic weapon. Most of the disciples of the Floating Cloud Sect mainly use long swords, so generally after being approved by their respective masters, they will abandon ordinary weapons and choose a long sword from the sword Tan as their own matching sword.
After Lin Qiuzhi listened, he suddenly realized, looking at Song Yi's eyes showing a trace of envy, the smug look on Song Yi's face was even stronger, and he said with a smile: "Little junior brother, practice hard, there will be some in the future, and there will be some." ”
The three of them walked all the way in this laughter, got acquainted with each other a lot, and before they knew it, they came to the dining room, which was simple, with only a boxy wooden table and a long bench, and the remaining one big chair and two smaller chairs were specially prepared for Xu Mingxuan's family. As for the food, it's not bad, steamed buns, soup, and noodles are all available. I heard what the senior brother said, this dining room has been set up in the area under the jurisdiction of every elder, and this is the dining room under the jurisdiction of Xu Mingxuan.
The three of them sat down on the bench in turn, Mu Ren was the first, and Lin Qiuzhi saw that the two senior brothers had not moved the food in front of them for a long time, so they sat aside in an orderly manner.
Song Yi sat aside, facing Lin Qiuzhi with a square face, with a faint smile, and said, "Little junior brother, how was your cultivation yesterday?"
The corners of Lin Qiuzhi's mouth twitched, yesterday's pain was vivid, and now he can still feel the soreness all over his body, but although it is painful, Lin Qiuzhi is also extremely excited. When he first entered the practice, under Mu Ren's teaching, he had already learned the most basic inner vision of a practitioner, he could see any changes in his body, and when he gathered qi, he could see the flow of spiritual energy in the body's veins.
Thinking of gathering qi, a doubt came to his heart, and he asked: "Second senior brother, why when I gather qi, there is only... ”
Before he finished speaking, suddenly, the faces of the two senior brothers tightened, and they both stood up, facing the door, Lin Qiuzhi was overwhelmed by this hand, and his reaction was a little slower. Stunned, Xu Mingxuan's family appeared at the door, looking at the third child who reacted slowly every time, Xu Mingxuan was extremely disappointed in him.
After everyone was seated, Xu Mingxuan waved his hand and said, "Let's eat." ”
Xu Mingxuan glanced at Lin Qiuzhi and said to Mu Ren: "Did you teach him the rules and precepts of the sect?" ”
Mu Ren nodded and said, "Senior brother is diligent, but he learns the rules and precepts very quickly, and some basic cultivation methods have also been taught to him." ”
Xu Mingxuan looked at Lin Qiuzhi's eyes and said a lot kinder, "Third brother, follow your senior brother to study hard, the Tao is endless, cultivation is like sailing against the current, if you don't advance, you will retreat." Although your qualifications are poor, as long as you are diligent and willing to learn, you still have the opportunity to learn and succeed. ”
Lin Qiuzhi nodded respectfully and said yes, not daring to neglect the master's entrustment.
All the people present ate quietly, only Xu Zimu put down the dishes and chopsticks and said to Xu Mingxuan: "I want to go to the back mountain to practice with my junior brother." ”
Xu Mingxuan frowned and said, "What are you going to make a fuss about, how is your cultivation too upright?"
Taiqing righteousness belongs to the supreme method of the practice of the Floating Cloud Sect, which is divided into four realms, Yuqing, Shangqing, Taiqing, and Wuji Shengjing, each realm is divided into nine levels, the ordinary disciples of the Fuyun Sect are generally in the first two layers of the Yuqing Shengjing, and the qualifications are slightly better on the edge of the third or fourth layer, and the fourth layer is a threshold, the qualification is not enough, and it may be stagnant all your life, if you enter the fourth layer, you will have the qualification to become a disciple of the inner door of the Fuyun Sect.
Speaking of inner disciples, I have to say that Xu Mingxuan is a disciple. Speaking of which, when Xu Mingxuan accepted apprentices in his early years, he was still a diligent and good teacher, but since he became this Sword Tan Elder, he had a lot of affairs, and gradually he couldn't take care of teaching his apprentices, and even needed disciples to help take care of Sword Tan affairs, resulting in a lot of less time for cultivation, so that in the past few years, Xu Mingxuan only had three disciples, Mu Ren, Song Yi and his daughter, under Xu Mingxuan.
However, a few people are diligent, the senior brother Mu Ren has the deepest practice, and has cultivated Taiqing righteousness to the sixth layer of the Yuqing Shengjing, Song Yi followed closely behind, to the fifth layer of the Yuqing Shengjing, Xu Zimu is the youngest, and the time to practice is also the least, but the qualifications are indeed the best, at the age of sixteen, he reached the fourth layer of the Yuqing Shengjing, and has already glimpsed the threshold of the fifth layer. Several of them belong to the personal disciples of the inner door, speaking of which, Lin Qiuzhi is not qualified, but after all, it belongs to Xu Mingxuan's personal lineage, and it can be regarded as the inner door that entered through the back door.
To get back to the point, Yuqing Shengjing is like this, not to mention Shangqing, Taiqing, and Wuji. There are thousands of people in the Floating Cloud Sect, and there are only six elders who have broken through to the Shangqing Victory Realm, and even Jian Yixin is only the first glimpse of the Taiqing threshold, and he is not allowed to enter its door, as for the Wuji Victory Realm, the Floating Cloud Sect was founded for a thousand years, and it is said that only the founding ancestor broke through to the Wuji Victory Realm, and the sword Zhixiao, who was the first person in the righteous path, has never entered the Wuji Victory Realm.
Xu Zimu replied: "Four floors." ”
Xu Mingxuan seemed to have known this for a long time, and did not react excessively, snorted, and said, "The fourth layer, it is only the downstream of the inner disciple, I am embarrassed to practice with your junior brother." ”
Xu Zimu didn't follow and shouted: "Senior brother has no opinion, but my mother also agreed." ”
Mu Ren was named, and he complained bitterly in his heart, so he hurriedly buried his head in eating.
Xu Mingxuan glanced at Mu Ren coldly, and then looked at Su Wan beside him.
Su Wan immediately put down the dishes and chopsticks, and said lightly: "Although Mu'er's cultivation is still shallow, she still has some experience in basic cultivation techniques, and the two are of the same age, I think it's still good to practice with Qiu Zhi." ”
Xu Zimu was afraid that his father would not agree, so he shouted on the side: "That's it, my mother said that my father hadn't reached this level at my age." ”
Xu Mingxuan's old face turned red at the moment, and he didn't object, and said, "Whatever you want, whatever you want, but you can't embarrass me when the sect is held!"
Xu Zimu's face was overjoyed, and before she could say anything, she saw that Mu Ren had finished breakfast and hurriedly said, "Master, I'm hugging, the little junior brother's matter is important, I'll take him to get busy first." ’
Xu Mingxuan didn't care, waved his hand and let him go, Mu Ren hurriedly pulled Lin Qiuzhi, who hadn't finished eating, out of the room, Xu Zimu couldn't care about eating, and hurriedly chased after him.
At this moment, only Xu Mingxuan and his wife were left in the hall, and there was a slightly redundant Song Yi who was messy in the air, and before he could react, he was the only one left.
Xu Mingxuan looked at Song Yi as the only disciple in the hall, and said to him, "Since that's the case, you and I will go to Linghu Lake alone." ”
Song Yi was stunned for a moment, instantly understood the good intentions of the senior brother, and secretly scolded the senior brother for being shameless, and then could only agree with a bitter face.
