Chapter 08: Genius

As if in a dream, Xu Xian felt that his soul had become more ethereal than ever, as if he had been empowered. Originally, the scriptures in the "Great Cave True Scripture" were completely incomprehensible, but suddenly all the scriptures were clear.

This has nothing to do with Xu Xian's talent and knowledge.

When the Dao root is planted, even if Xu Xianmu is illiterate, the meaning of these scriptures will naturally appear in his mind.

This is like a fool who suddenly opened his mind and saw the vitality of the world and the mystery of all things in the world.

There is no need to deliberately pull it, Xu Xian, who is sitting cross-legged with his five hearts facing the sky, according to the method of breathing recorded in the scriptures, begins to absorb the essence of the Taiyin Star in the twenty-four stars with his breath, and stores the qi of the five directions in his body.

With the loss of time, unconsciously, Xu Xian's soul began to change, and his physical body was also changing.

This kind of change may not be obvious to outsiders, but Xu Xian himself knows it very well.

Of course, in a short period of time, Xu Xian will not be able to have many magical powers like the Taoist priest of Guangning, but the accumulation of small amounts will add up, and sooner or later he will also have magical powers beyond natural phenomena.

......

......

The moon is in the sky.

Small bridges and flowing water.

The small river next to the alley flowed quietly under the moonlight, and there was no one around, but on a quaint stone arch bridge not far from Xu Xian's house, there was a figure standing abruptly.

This person is none other than Maoshan Taoist Guangning who disappeared after separating from Xu Xian during the day.

Guangning told Xu Xian that if he went to Zhenjiang Mansion in the future, the two might have a chance to meet again, and the implication naturally meant that he was going to leave Qiantang County now.

This is not the case.

After separating from Xu Xian, he quietly followed Xu Xian to this place.

Although for various reasons, he did not teach Xu Xian the method of cultivation, but just gave a copy of the "Great Cave True Scripture" and left, but no matter what the two said, it can be regarded as a causal involvement. He was very curious about what Xu Xian would do with the "Great Cave True Scripture", and estimated in his heart that Xu Xian should suffer a lot, maybe he would have no clue at that time, and he would not be allowed to enter the door, and he would even say that he was a liar!

Cultivating the Tao is not an easy thing to obtain, and the requirements for aptitude are very high, and many mortals will not be able to get started even if someone personally teaches them the method of cultivation. Therefore, in this world, there are still a few people who can enter the Tao.

It's just that the development of things seems to be a little different from what Taoist Guangning imagined.

"This ......"

In the dark night, the Guangning Taoist priest looked at the little soul light shining from Xu Xian's position in front of him, and freely absorbed the qi of the five directions and the power of the stars under the starry sky, completely stunned, opened his mouth wide and couldn't close it, and there was no speech.

After half a ring, the Taoist priest of Guangning, who seemed to be deeply shocked, shook his head with a wry smile and muttered: "This is impossible! No one taught me, and I entered the Tao overnight! I took more than half a month to succeed under the guidance of my master!"

The Taoist priest of Quang Ninh is a person who has come from the past and knows very well how difficult it is to plant the Tao as the first step on the path of cultivation.

When he gave Xu Xian the "Great Cave True Scripture", he only thought of two possibilities.

First, Xu Xian couldn't settle down, had no perseverance, and found that the scriptures were too difficult and couldn't understand them at all, so he put them on the shelf and left them behind.

The second is that Xu Xian is very patient, and after repeatedly studying the "Great Cave Sutra" hundreds of times, he gradually understands the mystery and slowly enters the Tao.

But now, Xu Xian made Daoist Guangning almost feel ashamed, and the difference was too big.

"It's really extraordinary, it's amazing, and the future is limitless. It seems that I have made a great chance?" the Taoist priest of Guangning muttered to himself.

He is proficient in physiognomy, and when he saw Xu Xian for the first time outside the door of the Red Mansion, he was abrupt in his heart, and found that Xu Xian was by no means an ordinary person, so he treated Xu Xian differently. Otherwise, where would he give the scriptures for no reason and form this good fate.

It's just that what he didn't expect was that his assessment of Xu Xian was still lighter.

"I'm really curious now to see how that will change when we see each other again. The Taoist priest of Guangning finally smiled slightly, and the figure floated away from the arched bridge, and soon the figure disappeared into the night.

This time, he really left Qiantang County.

......

......

Dongfang just had a white belly, and I don't know whose house there was a sound to break the silence, and the whole street and alley soon came alive.

Xu Jiaorong got up early to wash up, prepared breakfast, didn't forget what she thought last night, and cooked an egg for Xu Xianduo to replenish her body. After doing everything, he went to knock on the door and asked Xu Xian to get up.

Xu Xian heard a knock on the door and immediately retreated from his wonderful cultivation state.

Although I haven't slept all night, I am very energetic, I don't have the fatigue after staying up all night, my head is unprecedentedly light, and my perception of the small things around me is much clearer!

It's like a mirror that has been dusted for many years, and suddenly it has been wiped clean and becomes bright and transparent.

Moreover, Xu Xian also found that his whole body was very uncomfortable, as if he hadn't taken a bath for a long time, slimy. When he rolled up his sleeves and took a look, he found that there was a layer of dirt attached to his skin, and he could rub a 'pill' with his fingers at will!

I didn't care about eating breakfast, in Xu Jiao's incomprehensible eyes, Xu Xian prepared two large buckets of water for the first time, closed the door and took a bath, changed into clean clothes, and finally refreshed.

"How does this situation feel so similar to the legendary Zhuji?

In his previous life on Earth, Xu Xian had also read a lot of Xianxia novels. Often the first step in cultivating immortals is to build a foundation, and at this time, the physical fitness will be greatly improved, which can be regarded as the first step away from the mortal womb of the flesh.

It turned out that Xu Xian was thinking too much.

How can it be so easy to become an immortal, the Taoist priest of Guangning has cultivated for many years and still can't figure it out, and the future Bai Suzhen will only be qualified after cultivating for 1,800 years.

After Xu Xian planted the Dao Root, he was reborn, but it was limited to comparison with ordinary people.

At Xu Jiaorong's request, he ate an extra egg for breakfast, and then Xu Xian began to review his homework and prepare for the upcoming autumn government exam.

If you pass the government examination and become a child, you will be eligible to participate in the college examination in the autumn of this year and gain the fame of Xiucai.

Xu Jiaorong knew that his younger brother didn't have much talent for reading, so he didn't have high requirements for Xu Xian, and his biggest hope was that Xu Xian would be able to get a reputation for his talents.

In the eyes of some people, it doesn't seem to be very difficult to take the Xiucai exam, but if you can be admitted to Xiucai, it is actually quite powerful.

The college examination is three times every two years, and an average of one time can be tested by four or five people in the entire Qiantang County, which is considered good.

As a showman, the Dali Dynasty will give subsidies every year, and the money is not very much, but at least he can support himself and not starve to death.

And although it is almost impossible for Xiucai to be an official, he can be an official.

Officials, officials, and officials are not as high as officials, but they are also decent civil servants, and their status is higher than that of most people.

In addition, Xiucai also has many privileges, such as not having to pay taxes, not having to kneel when meeting the county master, and being a well-known figure in the local area......

Therefore, if Xu Xian can be admitted to Xiucai, Xu Jiaorong is afraid that she will wake up with a smile in her dreams.

While reading the book, Xu Xian couldn't help but smile.

Originally, the souls of the two lives were fused, and it was not difficult for him to gain fame.

Now after a night of cultivating, my head is even more ethereal than ever, and the things in the books are basically not forgotten at a glance, and going to the exam is simply cheating!
