Chapter 8: Red Silk Energy
The Cangling Sect is a strange sect, and the eccentricity is not only in its perverted punishment, but also in its two special rules.
These two rules can be said to have created a precedent for the dual cultivation of the Immortal Sect, and they are also the two major rules that are unique to all known Immortal Sects.
One of the rules said: "All disciples who are promoted to inner disciples will select high-grade and well-related immortals from among them, and they can carry out dual cultivation and complement each other, but before cultivating the highest level of the Soul Breaking Realm, it is strictly forbidden to have affection." Except, though, for underground romances. Another door rule says: "All immortals who have reached the highest level of the Soul Breaking Realm must have a clear love, and it is strictly forbidden for any party to abandon love, and it is strictly forbidden to have underground romances." ”
In any case, there are very few inner disciples who finally reach the Soul Breaking Realm, and there are only three pairs of immortals who can reach the highest level of the Soul Breaking Realm, so this rule is clearly just for viewing, and it has no effect at all, but it has also stimulated the formation and development of the underground love affair of the Cangling Sect to the current popularity.
Just after the head of the house said this, Liang Chen and Yanling glanced at each other from time to time, intentionally or unintentionally, wanting to see if the other party had feelings. After confirming his match, Liang Chen also replied with great certainty: "Follow the master's wishes, I will learn from Yanling seriously." ”
"That's good! That's good! I'll set a deadline for you to start cultivating tomorrow. Before the Inner Disciple Primary Conference in February next year, you must cultivate to the fifth level of the foundation building period, and I believe you can definitely do it. Seeing Liang Chen's firm gaze, Sima Yaoran's heart was very happy.
Yan Ling is still a little undecided, after all, she is not very easy to get along with, and her temper and personality are not very good, how should she get along with Liang Chen after double cultivation? But these are Yan Ling's evaluations of herself, and the head of the family does not think so.
Liang Chen saw that Yanling's eyes were a little half-blinking, that is, he knew that her heart was very nervous now, that is, in front of the boss, he only heard a "plop", and Liang Chen knelt directly in front of Yanling. He kowtowed to Yanling three times with great respect, and said eloquently while kowtowing: "Yanling, please accept Liang Chen's worship." Today, Yanling accepted Liang Chen's apprentice, Liang Chen is grateful, from now on, I Liang Chen will be Yanling's apprentice, and I will be for the rest of my life. ”
Yan Ling saw Liang Chen bowing to herself, and she didn't know when she was a little more moved, if she was someone else, she would have been happy in her heart, and she would make a comical move on the spot. But Liang Chen in front of him is not such a person, at least in the two days that Liang Chen has been with her, in her eyes, Liang Chen is still a kind-hearted, simple and honest teenager, unlike some people who have complex hearts and worldliness. In fact, Liang Chen is indeed such a person.
Yanling gently helped Liang Chen up, and said softly: "Yanling feels honored to accept you as an apprentice, you will be my Yanling's apprentice in the future, unique." Get up, and I have understood your heart. Having said that, in fact, Yanling has already treated Liang Chen as a good junior and good friend, and she has never said this to others.
Liang Chen is actually quite impressed with Yanling, not because of her appearance (of course, I don't know yet) or her figure, but because she changed her fate, but that's all. Think about how grateful you should be in your heart for helping someone.
Sima Yaoran saw that Liang Chen and Yan Ling's teacher ceremony was very good, and he felt very warm in his heart, saying that when he saluted his immortals back then, the other party did not accept him very politely, but looking at the current appearance of Liang Chen and Yan Ling, it is indeed quite resonant.
Seeing that the time was ripe, Sima Yaoran said slowly to Liang Chen and Yanling, who were silently looking at each other, "Then Liang Chen's entry has been decided. Starting tomorrow, Yanling, you will start teaching Liang Chen to cultivate the first layer of the Qi Refining Period, and I will come over to check it in a month. And Liang Chen, these three Hui Qi Pills will be given to you for your cultivation in the past few days, if they are not enough, you can ask me for them. Remember to only allow a maximum of half a grain a day, otherwise it will cause the meridians to break, and you will not be able to stand it. As he spoke, Sima Yaoran slowly took out a few pale white beads the size of a grain of rice from his sleeve and handed them to Liang Chen's hand.
Liang Chen nodded lightly, carefully holding the three Hui Qi Pills and temporarily storing them in his wide bag. And Yan Ling also looked at Sima Yaoran, who was smiling, and replied softly: "Follow the master's wishes, Yan Ling will help him cultivate from tomorrow." That voice sounded too flat, Yanling usually spoke coldly, and her attitude in the forest was really different. Her mood is very complicated, and she reluctantly agreed to the head after a fierce ideological struggle, after all, her nature is to belong to the kind of woman who doesn't like to be close, and it is also her nature to be cold as ice.
"Liang Chen, remember, your talent was discovered by me, and I also unearthed you. You must cultivate well, and don't waste the hard work of the head and your senior sister. Otherwise, you will not only be expelled from the division, but you will also be punished very severely. Although Sima Yaoran loves Liang Chen very much, he has also not forgotten the truth that talent depends on his own person. For geniuses, especially geniuses like Liang Chen, they must be more strict with him, only in this way can he become a well-deserved immortal pride.
Liang Chen nodded firmly, although his appearance was as calm as water, in fact, his heart was already heavy. He had never cultivated before, and it was really a very difficult and risky difficulty for him to quickly cultivate and achieve results from today under the eyes of the head and senior sister. If you want to climb this mountain, I'm afraid it's not enough to have talent.
"Well, so be it. You guys go down first, and don't mention this matter to the outside world after today, including Liang Chen's strange things. Today, you go back and have a good rest, and after tomorrow you will start to enter the cultivation state. Of course, there is also your robe, Liang Chen, I have already sent someone to put the robes in the room where you live now. In the future, that room will be your Liang Chen's, if there is any problem, just find the master, I will be. Sima Yaoran saw that it was not too early, so he asked him and Yanling to retreat first.
Yan Ling and Liang Chen slowly walked out of the Rakshasa Palace, and during the time in front of the door behind the rockery, Yan Ling did not say a word to Liang Chen. She just glanced at Liang Chen's cheek from time to time, and hurriedly retracted it when she saw that his gaze was noticed, but she didn't know why Liang Chen was so calm, and she didn't know why she had a special feeling for Liang Chen, anyway, her gaze never left Liang Chen's cheek from beginning to end.
In Liang Chen's opinion, this is simply a huge coincidence, and he doesn't know whether this coincidence is a blessing or a curse for him, an auspicious or a bad one. Cultivation is not a very simple thing, if it is not well controlled, it is very easy to go mad, and finally the seven orifices bleed to death. And Yanling is just a stone in his heart for him, no matter how he touches it, he is also indifferent. Yan Ling's inner thoughts, Liang Chen is really unpredictable.
In this way, the embarrassing atmosphere lasted for nearly half a day, and even when Liang Chen and Yanling were separated, the two sides did not say a word, but the moment Yanling turned around, Yu Guang couldn't help but glance at Liang Chen who entered the house, and saw that he had already entered the door, so he quickly withdrew the afterglow. Liang Chen, of course, didn't know anything about it.
After Liang Chen returned to the house, his first reaction was that he felt a lot more relaxed, as if a thousand-pound stone had just been removed from his back, and it was finally time to catch his breath. The series of assessments just now is really thrilling, if there is only one in the hands of this spar Cangling faction, then he will suffer a great disaster.
However, since the head of the sect has begun to value himself now, it can be regarded as a good thing, at least, from now on, Liang Chen can officially live in this magical immortal sect as an inner disciple, and no longer have to wander outside to live.
Liang Chen saw a clean bucket in the corner of the room, the bucket was filled with buckets of cold water at some point, and there was a slightly damaged flower towel hanging on the edge of the bucket.
After spending the morning, Liang Chen's body was also a little tired, but after all, his body was still quite dirty before, since there was water here, it was better to take a bath in this cold water. Liang Chen's physique is very good, although he has been wandering for many years, but he has been bathing in the river since he was a child, and he basically goes to exercise his body every day, so he has never had any illness, and it is still very refreshing to take a cold shower in this immortal sect.
Liang Chen poured out some water from the bucket, then soaked the flower towel, quickly wiped it on his face, and immediately felt that his spirit was up, refreshed, and comfortable. Liang Chen saw that there was no place to take a bath around this house, so he simply put the bucket in a relatively hidden corner of the house and stood there to wash it.
Liang Chen quickly took off his shirt, and in less than a minute, his body was stripped naked, revealing his muscles and bones that looked somewhat strong. His figure looked burly, although Liang Chen was only sixteen years old, but his chest and abdomen could be seen piece by piece of abdominal muscles, which looked very amazing. Because Liang Chen has been learning martial arts with those martial artists on the rivers and lakes since he was a child, although he is a wandering child, he has already developed a good habit of exercising every day.
Liang Chen sat in this huge bucket, the depth and width of the bucket were just as high as his lower shoulder blades, Liang Chen sat in it with his eyes closed, slowly scrubbing his body with a flower towel, showing an expression of great enjoyment.
Just when his towel scrubbed to the position of his chest, he suddenly felt a faint pain in that piece, Liang Chen instantly opened his eyes and looked straight at his front chest, but saw that there were several traces of red filamentous material on his chest, and in the center of those filamentous substances, there was actually a dark blue mark deeply imprinted on it.
Liang Chen could clearly see that this imprint should not have fallen unintentionally, but was born with it. He used to think that this mark was just an ordinary birthmark, and he didn't care about it, after all, it is extremely common for people to be born with a long birthmark. But now when I look at this birthmark, the more I look at it, the more I feel that something is wrong, the birthmark is surrounded by purple-red filamentous substance, and those filamentous substances are a bit like the white fairy qi that Liang Chen saw in front of the obsidian table in the Rakshasa Hall this morning. These filamentous substances are probably some kind of mysterious energy.
"Could it be that this Qingyang Crystal has stimulated the latent mysterious energy in my body?" Liang Chen made a bold guess after thinking of what had happened this morning.
He tried to touch the birthmark, but as soon as his fingers touched its outer wall, a sharp pain came from his chest, and the red silk energy seemed to be alarmed, scattering in all directions.
Liang Chen didn't feel pain and stopped touching them, he wanted to test these energies and uncover their secrets. When I touched my finger again, it still hurt, but it didn't hurt as badly as before.
After touching it several times, Liang Chen's teeth were already bitten to death, and a few drops of cold sweat appeared on his forehead, it was estimated that the pain just now was a burst of pain, after all, he was still a mortal, and he would definitely be a little unbearable.
It was probably the tenth touch, the slight pain that had been a little heavy from the previous time magically disappeared, and when the fingers leaned forward, those red filamentous energies no longer scattered and fled, but gathered in the middle of the purple birthmark and flowed out through the tiny gaps in the skin. The filamentous energy was probably familiar with Liang Chen's fingers, so it produced an affinity, and the red silk fell on Liang Chen's fingers little by little, forming an energy mass similar to a small spark.
After all, Liang Chen was still just a mortal, and he didn't have the ability to control this kind of energy, so his fingers could only passively be slowly pushed outside by the mysterious energy that seemed to be weak but was actually powerful, and it wasn't until thirty seconds later that the energy stopped out. Liang Chen carefully put the red silk energy on his fingers, carefully observing this spark-like micro-strand energy cluster, only to see countless red gas filaments as thin as hair intertwined with each other, making irregular movements around the center, and as they moved faster and faster, the color of the energy mass became darker and darker.
Liang Chen didn't know what method he had come up with, and wanted to test the power of this tiny energy. He carefully approached the edge of the top layer of the bucket with the small spark that was moving, and when the filaments felt as if there was a strange object next to them, before the energy mass could touch the edge of the bucket, the red thread rushed forward one step ahead. Streams of red silk were like rockets shot by the guards on the city walls, but they were heading for one place.
It was too late, it was fast, and it was only a blink of an eye for Liang Chen, and the red silk actually passed through the edge of the bucket in an instant, and walked into the air to become one. And the edge of the piece, there was actually a round hole the size of a copper coin, Liang Chen took a closer look, the round hole seemed to be its own, and there were no traces or cracks left by burning or colliding.
At this moment, Liang Chen looked at the little energy mass above his finger again, and was surprised to find that this energy mass had not changed at all, and it was exactly the same as the energy before it was released.
