008. Urgency, tempering
"Hehe, it's useful. ”
"You ......" Daffodil was angry, and although she tore off a leaf, although it would not hurt the stem and spirit, it was a part of her body, what good use did the old man have? Although he did not understand, he did not know that it could not be a sinister intention, but he still complained: "Cruel bad old man!"
The old man let her vent his anger, poured the energy into the daffodil leaf in his hand, and then shook it slightly, and it condensed into the shape of a turquoise ribbon. The old man sat cross-legged, threw the ribbon in the air, and put his hands together, only to see two blue true qi, stirring at both ends of the ribbon, and then the blue blue light of the blue-green ribbon flowed smartly.
Daffodil was suspicious and wanted to ask the old man, but seeing that he had never had such a strict expression, she had to wait and see what he was going to do.
The old man held the ribbon with his true energy, and he did not sleep for seven days and nights, and then stopped and fell into meditation. Daffodil also saw the clue, the old man used his true qi to refine this ribbon, obviously consuming a lot of true yuan. The ribbon was still suspended in mid-air, and the turquoise luster sometimes shone a layer of blue, as if it had come to life, and it paused there.
After resting for half a night, the old man continued to refine the ribbon with his true qi, but this time it was less than a day and night, so he meditated, and after resting for half a night, he continued to temper, day after day......
Daffodil only saw that the old man was busy working, or resting, although he was a little confused, but he was not easy to disturb, so he had to regain his mind and devote himself to his own cultivation. It's just that day by day, the daffodils can't hold back, and this day they seized the opportunity of the old man to stop and asked out loud.
"Old man, when will you refine this ribbon?"
“......”
"What's the point of you? It takes so much energy. ”
“......”
"I'm really not used to the way you get serious, it makes me feel a little scared!"
“...... Hmm, what's there to be afraid of?" replied the old man, his eyes widened.
"You suddenly make me feel strange, so weird......"
"I'm a weird bad old man, what's so strange? Don't think about it, concentrate on cultivation, and strive to break through the transformation ...... as soon as possible."
"You weren't like this before, I've never seen you like this. ”
"......" the old man has already settled.
The old man was silent, and after resting, he focused on the refining of the ribbon, and the daffodil had no choice but to concentrate on his own cultivation. In this cave, as if in retreat, month after month, year after year, more than a dozen autumns, winters, springs and summers passed quietly. In the past ten years in the cave, it has been too calm, and there is not a single monster in the calm. The reason for this is that the old man refining the ribbon, the deterrent power emitted by the operation of true qi energy, the monsters in the past avoided it, how dare they come in and offend.
In the past ten years, this ribbon has been tempered from three feet long to about three feet long, crystal clear emerald green, and the light waves flow and shine.
On this day, after the old man finished his work, he urged the ribbon at will, and fell on a rock in a dashing manner, and he heard a loud "bang!" on the ground, and suddenly the gravel flew sideways, and the ribbon immediately fell back to the old man's hand. Of course, in the eyes of the old man, this power is nothing at all, at most, it can deal with the demons of thousand-year-old cultivation, but with narcissus leaves as the material, refining to this kind of process is almost the limit, if you want to increase the power again, there is only sacrifice.
"Old man, it turns out that you are refining a magic weapon!" Daffodil was a little excited after being surprised. This condensed ribbon looks like a soft thing, but it can smash the hard rock, and I can't help but admire.
"It's not a magic weapon...... the old man's expression was calm, but he muttered for a moment in his heart, "I just hope that when you use it, you can use its power well and help defend yourself." ”
"Yes? The daffodils were amazed.
"If I don't give it to you, do I need it?" the old man tossed the ribbon over, and it fell like a scarf on the petals of the daffodils. The reason why the old man used her leaves to refine it was also because she could use it to connect with her mind and exert its potential use.
"Hee-hee-......" Daffodil smiled shyly, really happy.
"Alas~" the old man sighed.
"What's the matter?" asked Daffodil, "you haven't spoken to me for more than ten years, which makes me feel weird." ”,
"Ten years ago, the reason why I wanted to refine this magic weapon for you was because I had a hunch that I was not far from the deadline......
"What......" Daffodil was stunned.
"Yes, my 10,000-year tribulation is approaching, I'm afraid it will be difficult to dodge ......"
"No, old man...... Haven't you escaped so many tribulations, big and small? ”
"In the past, the catastrophes came unconsciously and passed in a daze. And this time, I had a sense of foreboding, which grew stronger and stronger, and made me restless......"
"Perhaps, it's because you're thinking too much. ”
"You think I'm the centipede spirit! I feel uneasy, but I feel clear, clearer than I have ever been, and the deadline is approaching......"
"That'...... Let me ask you, is the 10,000-year Heavenly Tribulation a major or a small Heavenly Tribulation?"
"This ......"
"Then, I'll help you calculate, a small tribulation in a thousand years, a big tribulation in three thousand years, and you have survived a tribulation of nine thousand years, which is a great tribulation. Then, this 10,000-year tribulation should only be a small tribulation. Daffodil Flower's tone was obviously deliberately learning from the old man.
"I hope so......"
Although the old man responded like this, he still didn't think so. He has been in the realm of "concentrating on the void" for more than 6,000 years, and he doesn't feel how much his cultivation has increased, maybe it's a hundred feet ahead, and then he will break through the realm, but the breakthrough realm is very slim, and only the feeling is the most profound.
The old man began to have a premonition at the 9,000-year-old Heavenly Tribulation, but he didn't have any worries at that time, so he didn't feel profound. When he once again had a premonition of the coming of the omen, the old man seemed to see the end of his life, and was convinced of it.
For the old man, although he has not penetrated the virtual realm after spending so many years, he is not obsessed with becoming an immortal, so he has long put life and death out of the way.
However, the germination of daffodils, the companionship of these 700 years, made him have a concern.
The old man's cultivation path has always been to go with the flow and conform to the principles of heaven. At this moment, the idea of going against the sky suddenly germinated, and there was a kind of pride in my heart to talk about juvenile madness, and unconsciously over the years, while he was influencing the daffodils, the vitality exuded by the daffodils also affected him.
"Old man, don't think about it so much, you won't die, you will cultivate into an immortal ......" Daffodil Hua'er's tone was sincere, and when she fell into silence, she reverberated with heartfelt feelings.
"Little baby, do you want to break through the transformation as much as possible?" the old man suddenly asked.
"Yes!" Daffodil replied without hesitation, and then pondered the implicit meaning of the old man's words, "Over the years, no other monsters have appeared in the cave, you ...... You're going to look outside? That's it, actually...... I don't really like to absorb the essence to improve my cultivation. Don't you also think that the path of cultivation should be gradual? That's good, it's less than a hundred years. ”
"Hmm!" the old man smiled, obviously appreciating Daffodil Flower's words, "You don't need to devour the spirits of other monsters, but I'll help you." ”
