Chapter Forty-Eight: Wandering the Void Visiting the Masters in the Dragon and Tiger Mountains

Li Qiang, who has been concentrating on cultivation, does not know everything that happened in Area 44 of the secret military base of the United States, let alone that the real crisis in Huaxia is less than two years away.

With the help of a large number of spirit stones, at this time, his five souls have been cultivated to the realm of the five elements of perfection, if he wants to continue to improve, he must go out of the body, get out of the protection of the body, and enter the high altitude to be tempered by the scorching sun, so that the soul is more and more condensed and powerful, this is the ninth layer of "soul refining".

In order to step by step, and in order not to attract the attention of the martial arts students, Li Qiang chose to perform the first out-of-body soul at night, because at this time, Li Qiang's soul had already been substantiated, and after the out-of-body experience, the soul phantom would appear.

Carefully out of the top of the head of the Baihui acupoint, through the roof into the air, actually felt a trace of coolness, as if in the late autumn night, undressed and bare-assed outside.

He knew that this was because the soul had always been warm in the body, and the flowers that belonged to the greenhouse were fragile once they were separated from the protection of the body. Now it's time to take off the protection, jump into the icy water, and exercise yourself.

As the altitude rose higher and higher, Li Qiang felt that the chill was getting bigger and bigger, and finally when he rose to more than a thousand meters, he had reached the limit of his soul's endurance. So at this kilometer altitude, played Shaolin Five Elements Boxing, exercise is the most effective way to resist the cold, between a punch and a kick, the biting chill gradually dissipated, and the warm feeling poured all over the body.

In this way, the soul is becoming more and more condensed and stronger, and it can only reach one thousand meters at the beginning, and gradually rises to two thousand meters, three thousand meters, six thousand meters, and nine thousand meters.

On this day, the starry sky was bright, the bright moon was shining, on the clouds at an altitude of 10,000 meters, Li Qiang felt refreshed and energetic after playing a boxing technique, and couldn't help but move the idea of night travel.

When the soul begins to detach itself from the body, it is very weak and has no power to protect itself. If someone finds out, any steel bullet will cause great damage to the soul, so Li Qiang has always been in the martial arts school, and the soul does not dare to leave the scope of the martial arts school, and the other four souls in the body are also always paying attention to the surrounding situation.

Now the soul can rise to a height of 10,000 meters, and its strength is not what it used to be, and it already has part of the strength of the body, so that even if it encounters danger, it can be easily dealt with.

When the soul is separated from the body, it is already unaffected by the gravitational pull of the earth. For the soul, the body is both the prison of the soul and the guardian of the soul. If you are weak, your body is your guardian, if you are strong, you can leave your body, the sea is wide and the fish jumps, and the sky is high for birds to fly.

In fact, this is the essence of the rules of heaven and earth, to protect the weak and encourage the strong. "It's about constantly surpassing oneself.

Since the soul is as light as nothing and is not affected by the gravitational pull of the earth, as soon as the true qi is slightly urged, Li Qiang flies at a hypersonic speed. Of course, this speed is related to the strength of the soul, Li Qiang can only fly at 5 times the speed of sound now, and if it is faster, the soul will not be able to withstand it.

Looking at the brightly lit cities below and the highways full of traffic, I came to Yanjing unconsciously.

Yanjing is worthy of being the capital of China, the ancient capital of thousands of years, the geographical location is the left ring of the sea, the right side of the Taihang, the north pillow Yanshan, the south of the water, is really the place of the dragon's residence. It's a pity that with the changes of the world, the vicissitudes of life, now Jishui no longer exists, leaving only the legend about Jishui, which includes the Temple of Heaven, a landmark building in Yanjing.

According to legend, in ancient times, the Yellow Emperor and Chi You had fought by the Jishui River, because of Chi You's strong martial arts, the Yellow Emperor lost the battle, and retreated to the main peak of Wangwu Mountain at the source of Jishui, Temple of Heaven, Qing Zhai for three days, on the day of August 15, pray to the Jade Emperor, the Jade Emperor asked the Queen Mother to summon the Nine Heavens Xuannu to help each other, and finally broke the Chi You to dominate the world.

Since then, on August 15 every year, the Yellow Emperor has gone to the Temple of Heaven Mountain to worship the sky, and the emperors of the later dynasties have continued this tradition every year, but after the later emperor moved the capital to Yanjing, he felt that the source of the water was far away from the Temple of Heaven Mountain, and on the same axis of Yanjing, a high platform was built in order to worship the sky, and in order to show sincerity, it was also named "Temple of Heaven", which is the origin of the Temple of Heaven in Yanjing.

Li Qiang descended to the Temple of Heaven and looked at this high altar built to worship the heavens, pray for good weather and abundant grains, of course, it was actually to thank the Jade Emperor for his help, but in another way of speaking, it was just to fool ordinary people.

Now Li Qiang has become more and more convinced that this kind of ancient myths and legends are actually derived from reality. As the saying goes, art comes from life, and every myth and story is an artistic reproduction of real life, otherwise it is impossible to talk about it like this.

In today's realm, Li Qiang already has a clear understanding of the methods of these immortals, and in the eyes of ordinary people, he is already an immortal, even if he is a master like the old man of the Pang family.

This Temple of Heaven occupies a huge area, and now it has become a park for people's leisure and entertainment after tea and dinner, and there is no sacrificial function.

This made him think that if this Jade Emperor had not died, how would he feel if he had not yet died, and the people who had worshiped and thanked him every year in the past suddenly stopped worshipping now? Just like in the current society, if you give gifts to the leader every year, the leader may not necessarily take care of you, but if you suddenly don't give it this year, the leader will definitely feel the same.

In fact, the reverse is the same, the leader will give you a red envelope every year, you will be grateful at the beginning, but the number of times, you think it should be, once the leader does not send it, you will think that the leader has deducted your red envelope, and there is resentment in your heart, which is called "Shengmi Endou Mi hatred".

After taking a turn in the park, in addition to the strange and grand architecture, there is no sense of history that is simple and vicissitudes, and there is no mysterious atmosphere of sacrificing heaven and earth.

.........

In this kind of cultivation day after day, Li Qiang's soul has become more and more condensed, his strength has also been continuously improved, and the cultivation time has been changed from night to noon.

On this day, Li Qiang, as in the past, sat cross-legged on the clouds at an altitude of 10,000 meters, and the fierce Gangfeng was like a sharp blade, rolling up layers of heat waves, constantly cutting his soul, and undergoing the double tempering of Gangfeng and scorching sun.

After cultivating like this for more than three hours, until the strength of the sun weakened, Li Qiang stood up with a long roar, moved his body, and felt that his whole body was full of explosive power, and after several months of cultivation, the tempering of his soul finally reached a peak.

With the tempering and condensation of the soul, the power of the soul is also getting bigger and bigger, and it can finally drive the body out of the gravitational pull of the earth, and when it reaches this realm, even if it enters the ranks of the immortals, because the basic characteristics of the immortals are to soar through the clouds and fog and soar in the day.

He couldn't wait to rise into the air, soar up, and come to the clouds at a height of 10,000 meters, and now he knows why the gods like to ride the clouds. In fact, it is not that the clouds and mist need to bear the weight, but that the clouds and mist should hide their figures, otherwise you will be flying in the air, and the people below will be too shocking.

Driving a cloud, all the way to Longhu Mountain, because of the existence of spiritual stone mines in this place, Li Qiang suspected that the Taoist sect Longhu Guan who occupied this place should also collect spiritual stones, because many of the caves he found had traces of excavation. If this is the case, there must be a master in this dragon and tiger view, after all, the spirit stone is too helpful for cultivation.

In fact, this is also the reason why he rushed back to Qingjiang immediately after collecting the spirit stone for a while, because he was worried that he would be discovered by the masters of the Dragon and Tiger Temple.

Standing on the high-altitude clouds, looking down at the mountains below, the Dragon and Tiger Mountain is located in the middle of the 100,000 mountains, the tiger is on the dragon plate, the dragon and the tiger are contending, indicating that this place contains heavy treasures, so that the dragon and tiger compete with each other, and do not let each other. Facts have also proved that there are indeed spiritual stone deposits here, which is also the reason why the ancestor of Longhuguan opened a sect here thousands of years ago.

"This fellow Daoist, you are so bold!"

Li Qiang, who was enjoying the beautiful scenery below, suddenly heard a soft drink in his ears, and couldn't help but be surprised, and followed the prestige, only to see that in the dense forest on the mountainside below, there was a small courtyard, with green bricks and green tiles, hidden in the green trees, if it wasn't for someone shouting, and looking carefully, you can't find it.

A man in the courtyard was looking up.

Immediately lowered the figure, came to the courtyard, found that this courtyard is not big, covers an area of more than 200 square meters, there are tall trees growing outside the courtyard, at this time on the steps under the eaves, there is an old road with Buddha dust in his hand.

"Dao Chief, I don't know what I mean by that?" asked Li with a forced salute.

Although this Taoist priest looks ordinary, he can find himself on the clouds at a height of 10,000 meters, and he also talks to himself, which can be imagined his strength.

"Daoist, please sit down, seeing that Daoist is not very old, he should have only cultivated to such a realm, right?" said the Taoist priest, pointing to the wooden chair next to the wooden table in the courtyard.

"Thank you, Daoist!" Li Qiang sat down and said: "Daoist's eyes are like torches, he has indeed just arrived today, and on a whim, he can't help but want to swim." ”

"No wonder, didn't your elders tell you not to fly at high altitudes?" the Taoist priest asked with a strange expression.

"Don't tell the Taoist that since the master taught me the exercises more than ten years ago, I haven't seen the master again. Li Qiang said.

"I don't know which sect the Lingshi is a master of?" the old Taoist priest continued to ask.

"I only know that the family teacher's surname is Chen, and I don't know which sect it is. This set of statements has long become the source of Li Qiang's exercises, and it is seamless.

"In that case, I will tell you about the situation on the earth, lest you not be in vain. Lao Dao pondered for a while and said: "In fact, the earth has long been occupied by other planetary creatures, and these aliens are not only technologically advanced, but also the martial arts civilization has developed to an incredible extent.

In fact, our Huaxia cultivation method is a kind of primary exercise obtained from alien civilizations, and it is unknown how to obtain it.

After these aliens occupied the earth, they used the earth as a hunting ground, and every hundred years, people would come to hunt and capture humans. ”
