Chapter 16: The Finishing Touch
The red sun is low, and the evening breeze fades away the summer heat, blowing comfortably.
More than 300 black crows formed a long, sparse queue on the official road.
Although the old demon of Yangquanzi escaped, he finally rescued the little medicine boy, and the black crow guard who transferred to Beiding Mansion was no longer in a hurry, and walked very leisurely all the way.
Yang Xiong rode crookedly on the back of the ox, swayed to Ren Xichou, glanced at the black flame ornament on the other party's face, and asked with a big grin: "Old Ren, the second brother mentioned the Laoshzi method of the Demon Gate Southern Sect earlier, you must know, tell me?"
Ren Xichou has long been surprised by this guy's temperament, and he didn't think it was at all wrong when he heard the words, although he was born in the Demon Sect, he could use human skin as a drum without blinking, and he was also a taciturn and gloomy style, but he was unexpectedly skilled, and in the face of Yang Xiongji, who can be called the number one henchman of the school captain, he never stingy with a smile and tongue.
He chuckled at the moment: "My lord, this is to beat that Wei Shuqing with words, lest he think that our black crow guards can't enter Xiangzhou, and he is really afraid of him." His method of raising a knife does have some shadows of the Demon Gate Southern Sect's exercises, but it is only this suspicion, and this kind of unfounded suspicion cannot shake the foundation of the Wei family, but no one wants to make a fuss in vain, right? Not to mention the identity of our edict, when the day comes, it is a crime that can kill his entire clan. ”
Ren Xichou paused slightly, as if he was a little unsure, and hesitated: "As for whether Wei Shuqing has anything to do with the Demon Gate, I really don't dare to make a conclusion, even if it is true, from the perspective of the exercises, it is at most a side branch, and it is still far from the subtle methods such as the finishing touch." ”
"Oh? This is the side branch? I look at it, why do I feel very powerful, not only do not delay the pregnancy and cultivation of the knife intent, but also can maintain the peak of inspiration The realm does not fall, which is like the second brother, this realm has been up and down all day long, I feel terrified when I look at it from the side. ”
Yang Xiongji was interested, sat up slightly straight, and shouted: "Somehow, my realm has always stagnated these days, and it is like only a thin veil separated from that inspiration, and it is hazy and always indistinguishable, but no matter how you poke it, you can tell me about this mysterious method, maybe I can touch the bypass." ”
Ren Xichou was a little surprised when he heard this, and he couldn't laugh or cry, he shook his head and said: "Lord Captain is gifted and has magical exercises, his true realm is not something you and I can speculate, not to mention that you have touched the bottleneck of step inspiration in such a short period of time, and you can already be called an outlier, so there is no need to worry at all." As for the secret method of the Southern Sect, I was born in the Northern Sect, so how can I understand it? It's just that I heard Master mention it when I was a child, and the real finishing touch of the words is a magical power that directly points to heaven and man. ”
"It is said that there was a late patriarch of the Demon Gate Southern Sect, who was more than half a hundred years old when he started to practice, and his secular identity was a great painter, the best at painting dragons, and many large temples would solemnly invite them when they wanted to decorate the murals. This patriarch loves to paint obsessively, and after the inspiration, the number of life expectancy increases, and in the eyes of outsiders, he becomes a little unenterprising, and he actually uses all the aura that he has worked hard to absorb to paint in the void every day. ”
"He only drew dragons, and for some reason he never painted dragons with eyes. Although the dragon painted with aura is lifelike, it only looks majestic, but in fact, its power is far from that of sword qi and sword qi. Among the demons, the strong ones have always been respected, and this patriarch who lost his mind became a laughing stock for a while. ”
This deed is very strange, and there must be a peak and a twist of the following, which gradually attracted the attention of many black crows, and sure enough, he let Xichou continue: "Later, Nanzong encountered a great enemy, and at a critical time, this ancestor stepped forward, and with a stroke of his finger, he traced out of thin air a three-zhang green dragon with flying scales and claws, and then bit his fingertips, and for the first time, he dotted a pair of bloody eyes for this green dragon with his heart's work. This eye, is the wind and clouds change color, the ancestor broke through several small realms in one fell swoop, achieved supernatural powers on the ground, rode the wind and resisted the dragon, swept away the revenge with a snap of his fingers, and the awe-inspiring divine power can be called earth-shattering. ”
Yang Xiongji listened very attentively, but at this point he pouted, and pretended to be disdainful: "Since you have such ability, you should have taken it out to deter the enemy, and you have to turn the tide at the last moment, I think you are just a person who sells fame and reputation! It sounds like this finishing touch may not be better than Wei Er's method, how can it directly point to the realm of heaven and man?"
"I don't know the details inside, but Wei Shuqing obviously first had the weather and then extracted the sword intent to conceive alone, and used external objects such as luck to lose the natural meaning, and the ancestor actually entered the Tao with painting, and the cultivation intention was more ...... before cultivation."
Ren Xichou didn't bother to refute this guy, just shook his head and said: "The finishing touch seems to have abandoned the way of nourishing qi from the beginning, using knives, swords, pens, dragons, snakes, and insects are all insignificant appearances, but there is a little truth hidden in the chest, and the longer the savings, the greater the achievement after the finishing touch." It is said that the patriarch sighed afterwards that if he could be given another Jiazi time, he would be able to touch the boundary between heaven and man, and as for whether it was true or not, it would be up to me and other descendants to know. ”
Yang Xiongji's face turned a little dark when he heard this: "Didn't you say that if you want to practice this method, you must first learn Danqing, and you must honestly raise his grandmother's one hundred and eighty years of divine will, and no one can beat it in the same realm during this period?"
Ren Xichou smiled rarely: "A hundred years of supernatural powers, and even expected to go further, isn't it a peerless method?"
Not far in front of the two, Liu Tugou, who had never spoken to him, suddenly looked back, with a warm smile on his face.
He drew in the air with his right hand, and in the blink of an eye, he traced a brilliant and clear shoot, the top of the bud stretched out a leaf, the brilliance flowing, almost transparent, and the veins on the leaf surface were more radiant, which was extremely vivid.
From this bud that could not be seen from the species, Ren Xichou, the Grandmaster, and the half-step inspired Yang Xiong Halberd clearly felt a certain mysterious and profound divine intent, and they could even be sure that it was by no means an empty shelf outlined only by sword qi, but really had the power of a half-step divine power, and the whole body exuded a dangerous qi that made people palpitate.
It's just that compared to the colorful tiger with more divine will than aura, this sprout with more aura than divine will is much inferior.
Yang Xiongji was dumbfounded, and was stunned for a long time before he said, "Second brother, what are you...... You are rebuilding in vain, and you want to learn the finishing touch? But you can't order this broken grass leaf, and where can you compare to that fierce tiger, neither majestic nor riding!"
Ren Xichou was much more steady, but it was still difficult to hide the look of shock on his face, after all, a cultivator was the most focused on spirit, and changing the divine consciousness atmosphere was tantamount to denying his own path, let alone half-heartedly and having two meteorologies at the same time, which was almost unimaginable.
The previous battle with Wei Shuqing, because it was extremely short, and the small leaves in Liu Tugou's palm were fleeting at that time, and almost no one could see it except Wei Shuqing.
Liu Tugou's smile was even stronger, and a little more narrow, in fact, since the knife was planted, whether it was the tiger weather or this strange spiritual root that was roughly derived from the cultivation of the two parts of "Yimu Jue" and "Slash and Knife Cultivation Spectrum", compared to the slaughtering heart knife in the heart lake of the sea of knowledge, it was no longer insignificant, but it was just the externalization of the heart knife.
Speaking of which, this situation is quite similar to the finishing touch.
Thinking of this, the second master suddenly made a decision, in the future, if he was forced to do so, he would never use the Slaughtering Heart Knife again, and he should plant the knife again to see if it could be beneficial to the achievement of supernatural powers.
Thinking like this, he laughed and said, "!"
He turned his head, held up the young spiritual root with his palm, and brought it to his mouth, and then blew lightly on the lone leaf.
The blade shook slightly, and a knife qi flew out of the leaf surface violently, growing in the wind, and in the blink of an eye, it was as long as a zhang, winding like a snake flying forward.
The flat official road cracked in an instant, and the sand and rocks flew in an instant, and the scene was extremely terrifying.
Liu Tugou squinted, but his mind was no longer on this extremely powerful sword qi.
In the distance, at the end of the line of sight, a shining silver line appeared, which was the flash of iron armor, and a moment later, I saw a jungle-like spear, shining golden, exuding dazzling brilliance in the setting sun.
"Hengshan Iron Cavalry, the Son of Heaven is specially allowed to hold the golden gun!"
