Chapter 14: The Road is Long
Above the immortal mountain of Baiyun Sect, the smoke and clouds are misty, and the immortal mist rises. At this time, the sun had just risen, and the fiery red light reflected from the other side of the sea of clouds, turning this vast sea of clouds into a rising flame, slowly swaying with the breeze.
On the top of the immortal mountain, there was a figure in white, facing the glorious sky, sitting cross-legged on a mountain rock, his young face was full of serious looks, and there were beads of sweat on the tip of his nose.
It was Liao Tianxing, who was cultivating the Purple Cloud Immortal Recipe of the White Cloud Sect.
After the ceremony was over, he was taken back to the small courtyard where he had lived by the disciples of the Baiyun Sect, and was told that the books that needed to be transcribed by him would be delivered in batches after three days, and that the copies he had transcribed would be picked up by someone every seven days.
Liao Tianxing wondered, he was also a disciple of the Baiyun Sect, why didn't he have any cultivation methods after joining the sect? This Baiyun Sect went to great lengths just to hire a book copyist? The more he thought about it, the more he couldn't figure it out, so he simply didn't think about it anymore, and when the first batch of books was delivered three days later, he was suddenly taken aback.
Those books were yellowed, and even the stitches of some books were broken and almost disintegrated; the paper of some books was extremely old, almost disintegrated, and the handwriting on them was almost blurred; some books were already missing pages, but at a cursory glance, Liao Tianxing actually found that the font in the books was actually an extremely ancient language.
These books seem to have a very long history, Liao Tianxing picked out one of them, and found that there was a cultivation method on it, and there were all kinds of meridians and breath of the human body on it, and the description was extremely detailed. Then he took out another book and found that it also recorded the cultivation method!
Liao Tianxing was very excited, and he finally understood that these old books were all treasures, great treasures! The slightest resentment in his heart had long since disappeared, and after sorting out the books briefly, he began to transcribe them.
In the process of copying, he sorted out the methods that were in line with his current stage of cultivation, and the most suitable of them was this Purple Cloud Immortal Formula. This exercise uses the power of the sun to temper itself, absorb the power of the sun to improve the physique, so that the whole person is full of vitality, and external evil cannot invade. The most important thing is that the starting point of this secret book is very low, and ordinary people can also cultivate.
But it's a pity that the second half of this book was torn off, and Liao Tianxing couldn't find this batch of books after searching all over them, so he had no choice but to give up. Fortunately, the first half of the Purple Cloud Immortal Recipe was enough to satisfy his cultivation, and as for the second half, it could only depend on whether he would meet in the future.
Liao Tianxing had been sorting out the books for three days, and he finally understood the system of cultivation: the initial stage was the realm of qi induction.
The so-called qi induction, as the name suggests, guides the qi of heaven and earth into the meridians, tempers the physical body, and reaches the time of Xiaocheng, the body is strong and strong, and all poisons cannot invade.
And after the qi induction stage, there is the realm of qi acceptance. In the Qi Induction Realm, it only guides the spiritual energy of heaven and earth into its own body to refine the body, and does not have the ability to store the spiritual energy. The aura vortex slowly rotated, gradually accumulating and growing after absorbing the aura of heaven and earth.
After receiving qi, it is refining qi, and the aura vortex slowly rotates, removing its dross, taking its essence, and slowly condensing.
At the end of Qi refining is the legendary Jindan Realm. The so-called golden pill is the golden pill formed in the dantian after the aura vortex is condensed to the extreme, and it slowly stops. This is the essence of self-cultivation.
However, it is difficult for someone to reach the realm of refining qi into a pill, and the aura vortex is contracted to the extreme, and the energy and time required are not trivial. Throughout the ages, there have been many talented people who have died of resentment because they couldn't do this.
And in the realm after Jindan, there are also records in books, but only a few words. The realm after Jin Dan is rare in the world, and it can already be called an "immortal" stream, perhaps only the sect masters, elders of several major sects, and some old monsters of the hidden family can reach such a realm. And those who have reached such a state turn their hands into clouds and rain with their hands, and move mountains and reclaim the sea, and their power is boundless.
But these are still too far away for Liao Tianxing, and now he is not even in the realm of qi induction.
At this time, the sun is already shining, and after spring, the weather is slowly getting hotter, and there is already a hint of summer.
Liao Tianxing jumped down from the rock, wiped the sweat on his forehead, and planned to return to his residence to continue copying books.
He had been cultivating the Purple Cloud Immortal Technique for more than half a month, but he still made no progress. When Liao Tianxing was cultivating, he clearly felt that the power of the sun was surrounding his body, and his body seemed to be roasted on a fire, but no matter what, the power of the sun could not enter the meridians, and there was always an invisible barrier blocking him from communicating with the aura of heaven and earth, as if the advancing river was cut off and could not move forward.
But even so, Liao Tianxing did not give up, he still meditated alone in front of the sun every morning, using his strength to impact this layer of diaphragm, he believes that one day, all obstacles will be broken by him, and he will soar into the sky from then on!
Although the effect of daily practice was not great, Liao Tianxing noticed that it seemed that because of this half month, his body was much stronger, and his skin had changed from the previous fair and smooth to a light bronze color, which added a little strength to him.
After Liao Tianxing packed up and stopped, he embarked on the return journey.
Along a winding path, Liao Tian walked down the mountain, and saw from a distance that there seemed to be a figure wandering at the door of his small courtyard, which looked like Sima Nan who took him to the square during the apprenticeship ceremony, and he didn't know what his sudden visit was.
Liao Tianxing has been refining his body with the power of the sun these days, although he can't draw qi, but under the scorching fire of the sun in the past few days, his body has greatly improved in all aspects, and with his eyesight before, he can't see such a long distance.
Liao Tianxing came to the door of the small courtyard, bowed to Sima Nan, and said, "Senior Brother Sima, I haven't seen you for a long time." What advice do you have for coming to my small courtyard today?"
Sima Nan hurriedly returned the salute, he smiled and said, "Senior brother is polite, my brother came here this time to inform you of something." He paused and continued: "Six months later, all the disciples of the sect can participate, and if they win, they will get the heavenly and earthly treasures rewarded by the sect, as well as the magic weapon exercises!" He showed a yearning look on his face, and said to Liao Tianxing mysteriously: "If you win this time, it is also possible to accept the sect master's personal inheritance with the legendary Meng'er Senior Sister and become a personal disciple!" His eyes lit up, and he muttered: "That's Meng'er Senior Sister, Tianzi is the first beauty of my Baiyun Sect!"
Liao Tianxing saw that his saliva was about to flow out, and he was curious, so he asked, "Senior Brother Sima, who is the Meng'er Senior Sister in your mouth, worthy of your fascination?"
Sima Nan's face was straight, and he instantly put away the pig brother on his face, and said to Liao Tianxing: "In the past hundred years, only two people have reached the top of the ladder when they entered the sect, one is you, and the other is Senior Sister Meng'er. He explained, "Senior Sister Meng'er is amazingly talented, after joining the sect, she had the cultivation of the Qi Refining Realm at a young age, and then won the first place in the new disciple competition that year!"
Sima Nan said again: "Senior Sister Meng'er is the first beauty of our Baiyun Sect, and she is kind, lively and lovely, and she is deeply loved by everyone, if I am lucky enough to be able to cultivate with her this time, it will be worth living ten years less..." He was intoxicated with his imagination and had forgotten the existence of Liao Tianxing next to him.
Liao Tianxing didn't bother him, quietly waiting for Sima Nan to break away from his world, and asked, "Senior brother, where is this big competition held?"
Sima Nan knew that his pig brother was seen by Liao Tianxing, his face was feverish, and he said, "Senior brother, the place where Dabi is held is still the Five Saints Square in the sect!" and then left in a hurry.
Liao Tianxing suddenly realized that the square where the statue of the holy beast was carved was called the Five Saints Square. However, he had been thinking about it all the time, if he went to the stone pillars of the five holy beasts to test that day, which holy beast statue would light up the gem in the mouth of the statue?
Thinking of this, Liao Tianxing's heart itched. Although he is full of poetry and books, he is still a big child in his bones, and in the hearts of children, curiosity always comes first.
Liao Tianxing saw that it was still early, so he ate and began to copy books. He planned to go to the Five Saints Square in the dead of night to test his compatibility with the spiritual power of heaven and earth. At this time, there were still many disciples moving around in the sect, and there were many inconveniences.
Time flies, and in the blink of an eye, it's night.
It seemed that the weather was not very good, and when I looked up, I could barely see the twinkling stars, and even the moon hid in the thick clouds, refusing to show her face.
Liao Tianxing strolled on the way to Wusheng Square, looking at the scattered courtyards of the Fairy Palace on the way, he was sometimes amazed, sometimes stopped, blowing the cool breeze at night, which was quite comfortable. In the distance, the Genting Immortal Que stands on the top of a high mountain, overflowing with precious light.
After walking for a long time, he finally arrived at his destination, Wusheng Square!
There were no disciples patrolling the Five Saints Square at night, and no disciples were walking around here. The five huge stone pillars looked swarthy in the moonless night, and the cool night breeze whined through them.
Liao Tianxing felt that there was a cold swishing behind him, as if someone was watching him. He jerked back, but found nothing.
He walked slowly towards a stone pillar, placed his hand on it gently, closed his eyes and waited. He hoped that one of these pillars would be recognized by him.
But the time of half a cup of tea passed, and there was no other sound except for the whining of the wind. It seems that Liao Tianxing has no chance with this stone pillar.
There was a hint of disappointment in his eyes, but after a moment he picked himself up again, after all, there were still four stone pillars waiting for him to try!
But the truth is often more cruel than imagined.
Half an hour later, Liao Tianxing sat on the ground with his back against a stone pillar, raised his head and looked at the dark night sky, silent.
I really can't cultivate. This road, is it so difficult to walk?
If you can't cultivate, how can you save your father who is seriously injured and dying, and how can you protect your loved ones?
"Ahh
He hated, hated his damn physique, why couldn't he cultivate! He hated, hated why the damned demon clan invaded and slaughtered the world!
His fists clenched, and blood dripped to the ground, blooming bright flowers in the dark night.
"Why are you arguing here if you don't go to bed so late?" The crisp female voice suddenly broke into Liao Tianxing's ears, he looked up in amazement, he didn't expect that there were also disciples patrolling the Five Saints Square at night?
At this time, Liao Tianxing saw that on the stone pillar against his back, a green-clothed figure floated down from the top of the stone pillar, like an immortal. A moment later, the figure fell in front of him.
Her figure is petite and exquisite, and her long hair flutters under the night wind, but the sky is too dark for Liao Tianxing to see it really.
However, just when he wanted to get closer and see the face of the person who came, a sudden change occurred!
The entire ground of the Five Saints Square seemed to be trembling, and the small pebbles on the ground were even jumping. The wind suddenly became more urgent, and it whined and howled, as if some fierce beast was roaring in it.
At this time, a strong light burst out from the mouth of the holy beast statue on the five stone pillars, shooting straight into the sky! The clouds in the sky were broken by these five thick pillars of light, allowing the silver-white moonlight to fall and shine on the earth.
The ground in the Five Saints Square shook more and more intensely, and Liao Tianxing even heard a faint roar coming from the ground. At this time, he couldn't care about the woman who had just spoken to him, because the center of the Five Saints Square was completely shattered! A black light was like lightning, heading straight to Liao Tianxing's position, and it came in an instant!
At this time, an old woman's tightly closed eyes slowly opened, she stood up tremblingly, and let out a soft sigh, "It's time to come, it's still here after all." ”
