Chapter 34: Golden Stone Armor

The Yunshan Hall is very quiet, although this hall is very magnificent from the outside, but when he walks into the hall, Shen Shi only sees a few rows of tall bookshelves as far as he can see, and he has a small door on each side, which should be the passage to the apse, which does not seem to be very consistent with the famous sea of books in the legend, but it gives people another reverie, perhaps behind the tall bookshelf, in the small door apse, there are endless books and books piled up like a mountain and a sea of smoke.

Shen Shi has loved to read since he was a child, so he subconsciously has a sense of intimacy here in the Yunshan Hall of the Shutang Hall, but at this moment, of course, the most important thing is to choose the most suitable exercise from the Dao Law Catalog in his hand to cultivate, in this era of the decline of the Five Elements Technique, all kinds of Dao magic powers are already the foundation of all monks.

The catalog is not long, the two pages before and after, as introduced by the senior sister of the Shutang in front, recorded seventeen kinds of beginner Dao methods that can be cultivated at the beginning of the Ning Yuan Realm, Shen Shi looked at them carefully one by one, plus Sun You, who had already started cultivating for three years and had experience, would point to the exercises on the catalog from time to time and whisper a few words, so soon Shen Shi had a rough understanding of these seventeen primary Dao methods.

The Lingxiao Sect has been inherited for 10,000 years, during which there are countless geniuses and heroes, and there are naturally countless various divine channel methods that have been handed down, among which there are of course peerless Dao methods that are famous all over the world, but that kind of thing is a top-notch secret method without asking, and it is impossible for ordinary monks to come into contact with it. However, in addition to these Dafa secrets, the Lingxiao Sect also has many beginner and intermediate Dao methods, which are suitable for disciples below the Yuan Dan realm to cultivate.

However, if you really want to talk about it, in fact, there is no accepted standard in the cultivation world to distinguish the levels of various Dao and magic powers, and those various spiritual materials, pills, and The mineral deposits are different, and the various Dao and Dao supernatural powers cultivated by the Terran monks have actually become extremely complex after 10,000 years of evolution, and now they have become extremely complex, with a wide variety of new exercises and Dao techniques being created, and all kinds of strange and unbelievable supernatural powers will appear;

Using the level of primary, intermediate and high-level to distinguish various magic techniques and Taoism is actually just a relatively popular statement, and it is generally thought that the exercises that can be cultivated in the Ning Yuan Realm are the primary level, the divine artistic conception is the intermediate level, and the above Yuan Dan Realm is naturally the high level, and some rare and powerful supernatural powers that can almost move mountains and seas or even almost destroy the world and only exist in legends can no longer be corresponded to by ordinary levels.

However, this kind of rough hierarchical division method is obviously too large, and it is not possible to make a clear definition of the general scene of a hundred flowers blooming in the human race cultivation realm now, so in the Hongmeng cultivation realm, from time to time, there will be a phenomenon that the power of a certain middle-level Dao method in a battle is not as strong as a certain first-level Dao method. However, in retrospect, the so-called popular or relatively ordinary way of saying that it means that under most normal circumstances, this method is still useful, except for those more extreme examples, generally speaking, the intermediate Dao method is more powerful than the beginner Dao method, and the high-level Dao method is stronger than the intermediate Dao method, which is still the truth recognized by most monks.

In fact, to put it bluntly, in the final analysis, what plays the most important role in this is the monk's own Dao realm, even if a great true person in the Yuan Dan realm uses a beginner Dao method, but if he has an overwhelming realm power to exert his full strength, the power is not something that a Ning Yuan Realm monk can resist.

However, the division of these Dao levels obviously does not have much significance for people like Shen Shi who have just stepped into the Ning Yuan Realm, and the seventeen kinds of exercises and supernatural powers on this catalog are all the most suitable Dao techniques for new monks to cultivate selected by Ling Xiao Sect after years of experience, and they cover a wide range, including offensive Dao techniques that are not very powerful, as well as defensive techniques that protect one's life and defend oneself, and even include a rare auxiliary Dao magic power.

Shen Shi read this catalog several times, but it was still difficult to make a decision in his heart, so he turned his head and asked Sun You softly, "When you came to choose Dao Technique, which one did you choose?"

Sun You didn't mean to hide it from him, and directly tapped his finger on the first page of that catalog, and said, "It's this." ”

Shen Shi glanced over there, and saw that Sun You had ordered the third Dao technique that was counting, called "Cloud Piercing Arrow Technique".

Shen Shi immediately looked at the brief explanatory text at the bottom of the catalog of this Dao Technique, although the text was simple and the number of words was limited, it was still easy to see that this Dao Technique should be a magical power that focused on attack. After reading it, he nodded slightly, and couldn't help but ask Sun You again, "Why did you choose this Dao technique in the first place?"

Sun You smiled and said, "It's nothing, I just think that if there is really a fighting method in the future, I will stand far away and cast a spell to shoot an arrow, and I will shoot him to death before he gets close, how good it feels." ”

Shen Shi looked at him and laughed for a while, then shook his head with a smile and said, "The two of us can be friends, and it is really fate." ”

Sun You put his arm around Shen Shi's shoulders and said with a smile, "What do you say?"

Shen Shi smiled and said, "Actually, when I used the Five Elements Technique to fight the demon beasts, my favorite appearance in my heart was to stand in the distance, and then throw any fireball technique, water arrow technique, and rock thorn technique over......"

Sun You laughed, looking very happy, nodded again and again, and said, "Win my heart, win my heart, the two of us are really ...... Uh?" as he spoke, he suddenly thought of something, lowered his voice suddenly, and said softly, "But, if you talk about it like this, won't it seem that the two of us are very obscene? ”

Shen Shi sneered and said, "Pretending to be ......"

Sun You laughed and said, "I'm just talking about it, by the way, since that's the case, or you also choose this cloud-piercing arrow trick, when the two of us go out to fight together, the two arrows will be fired together, I'll go, that scene shouldn't be too majestic!"

Shen Shi hesitated for a moment, his eyes swept over the four words of "Cloud Piercing Arrow Technique" on this catalog, and he did not nod in agreement, and after pondering for a while, he asked Sun You softly: "How long have you been practicing this Cloud Piercing Arrow Dao Method, I looked at the top and said that the Cloud Piercing Arrow has four layers of realm, how is your realm now?"

Sun You shrugged his shoulders and said, "I chose this Dao technique when I first went up the mountain, and I have only been cultivating it until now, but after three years, it can only be cultivated to the first level of the realm 'Cloud Piercing'." As for the 'Phantom', 'Broken String' and 'Breaking the Sky' in the back, God knows when I will be able to practice, maybe by then if I am lucky, I will have already gone to the divine realm, so I will throw away this Dao technique and replace it with a new one. ”

Shen Shi waved the catalog in his hand and said with a smile: "The text under this Cloud Piercing Arrow Technique says that once Dacheng has completed his cultivation, his power is comparable to that of a mid-level Dao technique. ”

Sun You sneered, rolled his eyes, and said, "Come on, sixteen of these seventeen Dao magic powers are so boastful. ”

Shen Shi laughed, shook his head, looked all the way, and after thinking for a while, he finally made up his mind, turned to the second page of the table of contents, pointed to the penultimate Dao name, and said to Sun You: "I will choose this Dao method to cultivate." ”

Sun You's gaze immediately moved over, and then he was stunned, his brows furrowed slightly, and he said, "Golden Stone Armor?

Generally speaking, when a new monk chooses his first Dao technique, the choice he makes is usually to choose a powerful offensive Dao technique, and after holding it in the Qi Refining Realm for so long, he has finally come out, so why can't he be arrogant and experience the feeling of being invincible? Therefore, most of the time, the offensive Dao technique is more popular with newcomer monks, and defensive Dao techniques like Jin Shi Armor are actually considered unpopular.

Facing Sun You's somewhat surprised gaze, Shen Shi smiled and said, "I'm afraid of death." ”

Sun You snorted, and it seemed that he still didn't believe in this reason, but soon he suddenly became happy again, and said with a smile: "Actually, this Dao technique is not bad, in the future, the two of us will go out together, and when there is a battle, you will carry it in front, and I will shoot arrows in the back, well, this scene is really good, not bad, stone, you must have thought so before you chose the Golden Stone Armor Dao Method, good brother!"

Saying that, Sun You couldn't help sighing, patting Shen Shi's shoulder vigorously, with a look of appreciation and admiration.

Shen Shi was a little helpless, smiled bitterly, and didn't bother to take care of this guy. After thinking about it a few times, he gave up those offensive Dao methods that might be quite powerful and chose Jinshi Armor, naturally for a reason. Self-defense and life preservation are of course important reasons, but in addition, it is actually because he has cultivated the Yin and Yang Spell, for some reason, the power of the Five Elements Spell he casts seems to be much stronger than the ordinary spell, and the enhancement of this power has even reached the point where ordinary first-order spells can cause threat and damage to the cultivators of the Ning Yuan Realm.

Of course, it is said that it is a threat and damage to Monk Ning Yuan, but this effect is actually limited, and it is impossible to reach the power of an ordinary fireball technique that will severely damage Monk Ning Yuan.

Although it seems that the power of the first-order Five Elements Technique is not satisfactory, don't forget that Shen Shi is already a monk who has stepped into the Ning Yuan Realm, in other words, although almost all monks in this realm will give up the cultivation of the Five Elements Technique, because it is time-consuming and labor-intensive, and the return is not high, but as long as Shen Shi is willing, he can actually find a way, and then start to cultivate the second-order spell in the Five Elements Technique.

According to the consensus in the past cultivation realm, the more advanced the Five Elements Technique, the more difficult the cultivation difficulty, and the effort and energy it consumes is not inferior to the various beginner-level and middle-level Dao Methods, and even some specific Five Elements Techniques For various reasons, the cultivation difficulty even reaches the standard of the High-level Dao Method, but the power after cultivation is often not as good as the Beginner Dao Method. In this case, the decline of the Five Elements Technique is simply inevitable.

However, Shen Shi is of course a little different, since he was a child, his cultivation in the Fu Gong Sect, including the Yin Yang Mantra that he accidentally obtained over the years, has made him have an unusual love and enthusiasm for the Five Elements Technique, which is a declining Dao method, and because of the relationship between the Yin and Yang Spell, he has a deep premonition, that is, when he can really cultivate a certain second-order Five Elements Technique, that power may also be different and even a little surprising......

Maybe after leaving the Yunshan Palace, should I go to the art hall to have a look?

Shen Shi thought so in his heart, but since he had made a decision, Sun You didn't say anything more, so he stood up and found the senior sister and explained his decision to her.

After hearing the three words of Jin Shi Kai, this senior sister of the study hall obviously had a stunned look, obviously among the disciples of the Ling Xiao Sect who came here to select the exercises on weekdays, there were really very few people who chose this defensive exercise. However, this has nothing to do with her, the path is chosen by everyone themselves, besides, everyone knows that although the cultivation of the Dao Law is difficult and long, if you want to truly complete the cultivation of a Dao Law and successfully reach the Dacheng realm, it takes a huge amount of time and effort, but with the improvement of the monk's realm, there are many examples of changing the cultivation of Dao Fa supernatural powers. More often, these seventeen primary-level Dao methods are actually just a stepping stone for the new disciples of the Lingxiao Sect, and they are the transition and foreshadowing for them to cultivate more powerful high-level Dao methods when their realms are higher in the future.

Therefore, although this introductory Dao method is important, it is the foundation for the new disciples to defend themselves and even fight in the future, but in the long run, it is actually not particularly crucial.

Retracting the catalog, the female disciple of the study hall took out a jade box from a large bookshelf next to it, opened it in front of Shen Shi, and saw a jade slip made of green jade in the jade box, with a faint aura flickering and faint handwriting, and at the top were three clear big characters - "Golden Stone Armor".

After thanking the senior sister, Shen Shi and Sun You walked out of the Yunshan Hall side by side, and there was a faint feeling of reluctance in his heart, maybe he still liked the bookish atmosphere here. However, he was not particularly sad, because it had already been written in the Lingxiao Sect's disciple rules that the disciples of the sect could come here at any time to read and consult, and the place behind the Yunshan Palace, known as the "Sea of Books", was prepared for them, of course, from the pure environment here, Shen Shi could faintly deduce that it was not free to read in the sea of books......

And when he was still thinking a little bit about the sea of books and books in the hall behind him, Sun You, who was beside him, suddenly snorted coldly, and his face sank.

Shen Shi was stunned for a moment, glanced at Sun You, only to see that he was looking ahead, his face was a little not good-looking, and following his gaze forward, Shen Shi saw that under the shade of an ancient tree outside the Yunshan Palace, on the edge of the staggered shadow of the tree and the sunlight, in the light of the sea breeze blowing through the shadow of the tree and swaying, there was a delicate and beautiful woman standing at this moment, with a somewhat complicated look and eyes, looking at him quietly.

The corners of Shen Shi's mouth moved slightly, and then he laughed, although he hadn't seen her for three years, although she had grown up and become more and more beautiful, but the face and eyes in his eyes seemed to be the same as yesterday.

He smiled and waved at her standing under the old tree.

In the distance, Zhong Qingzhu's eyes seemed to fall on him alone, looking at the man on the stone steps, looking at his hearty and smiling face, in a trance, as if he was still the same as he was on Qingyu Island at that time.

The breeze blew slowly, brushing her hair over her snow-white skin, like turning back in time, reflecting in the depths of her gentle eyes.

Then, too, she smiled, smiled and waved her hand, and in the shade of the light and shadow, she laughed and exclaimed:

"Stone!"
