Chapter 7: Condensation
"Well, it's okay, it's not as good as you say. Ning Mu groaned a little, touched his dark face and said.
Lin Sheng covered her mouth and smiled, and winked at her ambiguously: "Senior brother, there will be a real battle of the sect's Demon Ridge tomorrow, you and I can form a team, and Senior Sister will take you majestic." ”
"Hmm. Ning Mu responded vaguely, Lin Sheng obviously misunderstood what he meant, but he thought he was modest, but in fact his talent was really embarrassing, and he secretly made up his mind that he would work harder in the future.
Near the back mountain, but it is a peach forest, a breeze strokes, the sky is full of peach blossoms flying, like a fairyland, so that Ning Mu is quite shocked, fortunately, he was really shocked by the grandeur of the sect, and quickly came back to his senses.
Lin Sheng naturally sensed Ning Mu's surprise: "Senior brother, this is just Taoyuan Peak under the jurisdiction of my master, as a collective cave house for all the female disciples in the sect. In addition, there are also Uncle Master's Sword Forest Peak, Lin Rujian Rain, Second Uncle's Ascending Peak, clouds and mist surrounding the foot like a fairyland, Third Uncle's Bishui Peak, and so on. ”
Ning Mu nodded and pondered for a moment: "It will cost an unknown amount of financial, manpower and material resources to build this entire sect. ”
"Senior brother...... Haha"
Lin Sheng was stunned and laughed again and again: "Mortals can't establish such a big sect, there are records in the sect classics, and this place is a sect style naturally generated by the strong aura of heaven and earth. ”
Ning Mu's dark cheeks turned red, and he was out of shape, he wanted to pat the fart of the strength of the Withering Moon Sect, but he slapped it on the horse's leg, and with the hateful worldly eyes, he had to always remember that he was an immortal, and he was an immortal.
"Tsk, boy, you really worked hard for this broken sect, even the master of a sect has only built a foundation for a layer of cultivation, is it necessary? Moreover, what kind of broken book is written in a bullshit, just this scene is vainly called the sect of heaven and earth development, haha, it's ridiculous. The old man sneered disdainfully.
A trace of doubt flashed in Ning Mu's eyes, but the old man was shocked, stunned: "Strange, strange, this sect is really the product of the opening up of heaven and earth! It's really strange, if so, even if this sect is down, it won't even have a baby in the infant transition period?"
Ning Mulian asked: "Immortal grandfather, what is the infant transition period?"
The old man waved his hand in the phantom of divine consciousness in Ning Mu's mind: "Farewell to Immortal Grandpa, Immortal Grandpa's call, it's weird and awkward to hear." My surname is Fang, and everyone in the world calls me the Emperor of Heaven, and you can call me the Emperor of Heaven. ”
Emperor Fang Tian pondered for a while, and said: "There are eight realms of cultivating immortals, condensing qi, building a foundation, forming a pill, infantile transformation, refining void, turning into a god, Mahayana, and crossing the catastrophe, and only after that catastrophe of heaven and earth can you cultivate into an immortal and survive forever." ”
"With such a big sect, the sect master has only built a foundation?" Ning Mu initially had a vague concept of cultivating immortals, and only then did he exclaim in surprise at Emperor Fang Tiandi's previous words.
A jade hand dangled in front of his eyes for a moment, Ning Mu looked at Lin Xiang, who was only on the second floor of condensation, but saw that his little face was slightly frowning, and his worry was strong: "Senior brother, why have you been in a daze, and you still exclaimed out in shock? Yes, is there something uncomfortable?"
Ning Mu shook his head awkwardly: "No, no, there's nothing uncomfortable." ”
Lin Sheng stroked Ning Mu's forehead: "Then I'll go on, don't underestimate the cultivation of the sect master who only builds the foundation level, compared to the Taishang elders of some sects, it is weaker than that, but it can't stand up to the deep foundation of our Withered Moon Sect, and there are countless powerful martial arts, and they can often win by leapfrogging the level......
Only then did Ning Mu understand that Lin Sheng was talking to the immortal grandfather in his mind, but he was still expanding his knowledge, and when he was talking about the sect master's cultivation, he didn't find any doubts, so the worry on his face disappeared, and he was replaced by shame.
After a short time, they passed through the peach forest and came to the opposite side of a large mountain. Ning Mu raised his head, what he saw in his eyes were rows of holes on the side of the mountain road, a trace of doubt flashed in his eyes, and he asked, "Senior Sister Lin Shang, why are there so many caves in the mountains?"
"Silly junior brother, this is the cave house. There is a small spirit gathering array made by the second master and uncle in the cave mansion, and the cultivation speed inside is more than twice as fast as that outside. There are three uncles who take the mountains as the media, and the cave house is prohibited, and it is said that the old monsters in the foundation building period cannot be broken. Lin Sheng smiled stupidly.
Ning Mu's eyes were calm and unwavering, so he could defend against the small formation of the Zhuji Immortals, which was too weak. Seeing that he didn't show a look of surprise, Lin Sheng couldn't help but look at Ning Mu twice, thinking that he was a child of a certain great family, after all, even the Zhuji Immortals couldn't look down on him. For a while, the heart of spring rippled.
Nearby, there was an old man sitting cross-legged on a stone plate carved with stone patterns, closing his eyes and recuperating.
Lin Sheng walked over quickly, and respectfully clasped his fists and saluted: "Seventh Senior Uncle, disciple Lin Shang." ”
Ning Mu subconsciously felt a little nervous.
"Hmm. The old man's eyelids were raised, and a trace of light flashed when his cloudy old eyes glanced over, and he quietly raised his thin old arm, and said lightly: "Take people, two Tianling grasses." ”
"Yes. A trace of pain flashed in Lin Shang's eyes, and he respectfully saluted again, and took out two palm-sized grasses from his arms, but shining with a faint blue light, and handed them to the old man's thin hands.
The old man held this grass and threw it to himself out of thin air, and the heavenly spirit grass disappeared in the blink of an eye, this hand saw Ning Mu is stunned and felt strange, the old man even pinched his hands, and pointed at the mountain at will, and an invisible curtain of water slowly expanded from a small point to a size enough to pass through a person.
Lin Sheng walked over quickly and beckoned to Ning Mu: "Senior brother, come over quickly, this water curtain has a limited time, if you ask for the seventh uncle after the deadline, you will have to hand over the Heavenly Spirit Grass." ”
Ning Mu also naturally knew the importance of this strange grass, and walked forward quickly, walking through the water curtain with Lin Shang, and couldn't help but ask: "Senior Sister Lin, the spirit grass was so important that day, did it have any big effect?"
A look of doubt flashed in Lin Shang's eyes, but he remained silent: "Tianling Grass is a kind of small grass containing spiritual power, because it can grow generally, the adult cycle is several decades shorter than that of spiritual things such as Ganoderma lucidum and ginseng, although the spiritual power is also relatively weak, but the Heavenly Lingsan refined by it can also greatly improve cultivation, with the assistance of Tianlingsan, only one day of cultivation is equivalent to the results of seven days of cultivation." ”
Lin Shang pondered a little, and said: "However, this kind of spiritual grass is only in the hands of the sect or a few big clans, and a mature Heavenly Spirit Grass only bears two seeds, and it takes twenty years to mature, so it is still very precious." In the sect, you also have to spend a large amount of contributions to redeem it. ”
Ning Mu's eyes flashed, this is indeed a good thing.
After a short time, they climbed the surrounding paths, and finally approached a cave that was much taller than the one below. Along the way, there were countless fairy sisters laughing and playing, and they were all smiling and generous, dressed coolly, and Ning Mu was so excited that he almost couldn't move.
"Senior brother, it's here. Lin Shang said.
Ning Mu came back to his senses and took a closer look at the mountain. The caves at the foot of the mountain are always more than ten in a row, which looks a bit shoddy, but there are only three of them on the top of the mountain, and one of them is the gate that is three zhang high in front of Ning Mu.
Lin Sheng pinched the trick with one hand, his expression between his eyebrows froze, a little boulder gate, suddenly there was a circle of ripples, and in the blink of an eye, the boulder gate slowly swirled, Lin Shang and Ning Mu quickly drilled into the cave through the crack, and the boulder gate returned to its original position between the swirls, before it came to a standstill.
The light in the cave is not dim, but on the contrary, it is very bright, as if the sun's rays are shining in, which is quite strange. It was a very simple place, with only a stone bed, a teapot on a log table, two or three small cups of water, and nothing else.
"This cave exudes a refreshing atmosphere. Ning Mu said.
Lin Sheng smiled faintly and said, "That's natural, except for the elders of the entire Dry Moon Sect in this cave mansion, there are only twenty-five. Whether it is a prohibition or a spirit gathering formation, it is all drawn by the head of the sect and the major elders. ”
"That prohibition is also strange...... Ning Mu wanted to say something, but found that Lin Sheng had already sat cross-legged on the stone bed with his eyes closed, and took out the book of "Xiao Ning Qi Duel" from his arms, opened it, and looked at it carefully.
"Heaven and earth are ruthless, and all things are dogs!" wrote such a sentence on the first page, which made Ning Mu stunned and fell into deep thought, but turned the second page, which is a jerky and awkward ancient text, with a note on it is the mantra of the first layer of condensation, there are five pages of paper, Ning Mu opened the sixth page, which is a human meridian map, marking countless meridians large and small up and down the human body, and there are ten pages of paper that interpret the role of meridians.
After Ning Mu read the whole article word by word, the cave was dimmed, exuding a soft moonlight, Ning Mu learned that cultivation needs to recite the mantra silently at the same time, use divine thoughts to lead the ethereal aura, pass through the second vein of Ren Du, and then introduce it into the dantian. Ning Mu silently remembered the five pages of paper in his heart in order not to disturb Lin Shang, and soon, it was dawn.
