Chapter 5: Hunting and Killing Demon Beasts
Cultivating the truth lies in the accumulation of bits and pieces. Refining the Qi Realm, inhaling the spiritual power in the body, and dispersing it into the meridians of the whole body. It is only divided into three stages: primary, middle and high according to the effect of dispersing to the whole body and achieving the effect of quenching the body, as well as the accumulation of spiritual power.
At the beginning of the Qi Refining Realm, as long as there are no congenital defects in the body, it basically takes one month, or at most two months, to cultivate. Breaking through from the primary level to the middle level is nothing more than the increase in the inhalation of spiritual power, and the body is once again tempered and becomes more powerful and powerful. At the intermediate level, because the spiritual power in the body is relatively abundant, it can also be sent out of the body after accumulation under the guidance of the sect's magic formula. This also indicates that the spiritual power has reached the minimum requirements for cultivating the Dao Method.
In the middle level of the Qi Refining Realm, when you want to cultivate to maturity and stability, and can impact the high level, except for a few supreme geniuses, the rest of you need to cultivate for more than half a year. Generally speaking, the nine-month period is the most common.
After refining the Qi Realm at the high level, if you want to break through the first layer of life and death and enter the Ning Yuan Realm, you need to cultivate for at least sixteen months, and the spiritual power in the monk's body can meet the needs of rushing through the level. Therefore, most of the countless cultivators in the Hongmeng realm will stay at the high level of the Qi Refining Realm. If he could break through to the Ning Yuan Realm, he would already belong to the elite ranks of monks, and it would be enough to become a capital to show off.
At the beginning of the Ning Yuan Realm, the monk will open up the spiritual power jade mansion in the dantian, and all the subsequent realms are related to the spiritual power form in the jade mansion.
It is said that since Yanghuang Island was sealed, Dugu Yangming and Linghu Xuzheng received the newly promulgated task of Qitang - calcining stones. The two of them worked tirelessly every day, and every three days, they could get five spirit crystals. This kind of spirit crystal income can only be used to ensure continuous cultivation. But whether you want to buy the alchemy equipment of the Dan Hall or the alchemy equipment of the Array Hall, it is impossible. Even buying some elixir is out of reach.
In this way, more than nine months passed, and it came to the 15th day of August of the new year.
Dugu Yangming had already entered the high level of the Qi Refining Realm, and Ling Hu Xu was also approaching the high level of the Qi Refining Realm. The two of them felt that the time was ripe, so they took the spirit crystal and walked towards Bai Yuantang.
On the way, Ling Hu Xuzheng asked in a low voice, "Second brother, what kind of Dao method are you going to cultivate?"
"Fourth, the cultivation of Dao magic powers is not allowed to be sloppy. The Dao methods of the first order to the third order have four realm levels, and each Dao method is not an overnight achievement if it wants to be cultivated to perfection. As long as you choose a Dao method that you can cultivate, you can do it. As for which set I'm going to choose, I didn't think about it, so I'll check it out first. ”
"Yes, the fourth-order to sixth-order Dao methods have seven folds, and the non-order Dao methods have nine or thirteen folds. Second brother, your comprehension is so high, you must be able to practice a few more Dao methods. ”
"Tsk, how greedy your second brother is!"
Let's say that the more than 900 newly promoted disciples have all reached the middle level and above of the Qi Refining Realm. Among them, there are still nine people who are the most eye-catching, and there are also sixty people who have reached the high level of Qi Refining Realm.
The Gong family is the main family of the True Martial Palace, and Gong Yingyi, who appeared among the disciples of this generation, is an unborn cultivation wizard. Nowadays, it is rumored that he is already about to impact the Ning Yuan Realm. And Wu Hanxu and other eight people who followed closely behind, were not far behind. The nine of them, for the first-order Dao method, looked extremely bland, just picked one at random.
Although Dugu Yangming is also among the sixty people, his mentality is completely two situations. Although he knew about being accepted as a disciple of his own lineage, he knew very well that he did not have that blessing. Therefore, he still came with the spirit crystal to buy the first-order Dao method.
In Baiyuan Hall, it is extremely lively. Everyone whispered about the pros and cons of various Dao methods, and after confirming each other, they paid off the spirit crystal and left happily with the Dao booklet.
The disciple in charge of Bai Yuantang saw Dugu Yangming come in, as if he had seen a plague god. Without waiting for Dugu Yangming to speak, Senior Brother said with a smile: "Senior Brother Dugu, if you want to choose the method of that series, I'll take it out for you directly, okay?"
"Okay! I want the Desert Flying Snow Dao Method of the Solar System, Senior Brother Lao Jia will bring it to me!"
As soon as these words came out, everyone in the lobby laughed "haha", and it was not until a senior sister scolded him that he returned to calm.
Which senior brother took out a thick record book with an embarrassed face, and said in a deep voice: "The first-order Dao method of this sect is all on this. The cultivation steps of each Dao method are recorded in detail. In order to ensure that each disciple slowly comprehends the Dao Dharma, the sect ordered people to copy it into a separate booklet. Senior Brother Dugu, when you have chosen, let me know. Of course, spirit crystals can't be missing. ”
Dugu Yang started to look at it early tomorrow, and he could still hear him nagging. He looked at it, but an hour had passed, and the vast majority of his fellow disciples had long since dispersed in the hall. When he finished reading it, he closed the booklet again, took a long breath, and said, "Thank you, senior brother! I'm going to buy that thunder control technique!" As he spoke, he took out one hundred and twenty spirit crystals and placed them on the counter.
Who said: "My name is Zou De!" Looking at Dugu Yangming, Zou De laughed again, shook his head and said: "Senior Brother Yangming, if you are serious, it will be as scary as not being serious." He asked Linghu Xuzheng again, "Senior Brother Linghu, which Dao method did you choose?"
"Back to Senior Brother Zou's words, I chose a chain of water arrows. As he spoke, he also took out one hundred and twenty spirit crystals.
After the two took the booklet, they said in unison, "Thank you, brother!" and left side by side. As soon as he went out, one of them said slowly: "Dugu Yangming, you are really careful enough! This thunder control technique, even if you cultivate to the Ning Yuan Realm, I am afraid that it will be difficult for you to cultivate to the fourth level." ”
Dugu Yangming looked back and found that he didn't know this person, and he didn't pay attention to it, so he still walked forward. Linghu Xuzheng arched his hand and said: "It turned out to be Senior Brother Gong!
Gong Yingyi laughed "haha" and said, "You two still live in a stone mansion?"
"Exactly! My second brother once looked for Senior Brother Xu, but was rejected by Senior Brother Xu! Yes, I am afraid that I will never have the opportunity to move out of that dark and damp place in the future. ”
Gong Yingyi only nodded and did not answer. Seeing this, Ling Hu Xu chased Dugu Yangming with a cane.
Dugu Yangming and Linghu Xu are bringing as many as 2,400 spirit crystals from Yanghuang Island. In order not to make others suspicious, the two also carefully disguised themselves for nearly a year. But since the purchase of the Dao Method, the two of them have no worries, and every month, except for the occasional calcined stone and simmered stone, they practice the Dao Law in the cave.
In the cultivation of Dao and Fa supernatural powers, it can better reflect a person's natural understanding. If a person is gifted and intelligent, and has a wonderful understanding, he will be able to understand the Tao he has learned. It often saves a lot of trouble, and more importantly, it can create new ways according to one's own understanding. After all, all the Taoism and methods that have been handed down from ancient times to the present day were all created by people.
And Dugu Yangming is undoubtedly a cultivation wizard who has never forgotten and whose understanding is unsurpassed. Compared with Gong Yingyi and the others, what he is worse is only the gap in various cultivations. During the cultivation of the Dao Law, he always patiently explained all kinds of difficulties to Ling Hu Xuzheng. Because of this, Ling Hu Xuzheng's cultivation speed began to have a qualitative change.
In a hurry, another seven months passed. On Kaizhe Island, the wind is still calm. Maybe it's because everyone is diligent in cultivating, or maybe everyone is starting to worry about the future. Because after cultivating for nearly two years, it is already obvious whether a person is a person who is worth cultivating with great effort in the sect.
This is not to say that those who are slightly behind in cultivation have no chance. Because any outer disciple who reaches the sect's regulations and breaks through to the Ning Yuan Realm is qualified to go up to Buzhou Mountain and start the true path of cultivation. But some people who are out of balance in their hearts will inevitably start to have a negative side and wander around Kaizheng Island all day long. When people are idle, right and wrong will inevitably follow.
On March 15, the sky was high and the clouds were light. Thousands of acres of sea, sparkling water. Ethereal islands, submerged in countless island shadows.
This day is the day when the sect opens Tielin Island. Tielin Island is a demon island that has been repeatedly hoeed and ploughed by the powerful people of the True Martial Palace. On the island, the highest-level demon beasts in the depths of the dense forest will have a fifth-order. The outermost ones are the most common first-order demon beasts, and there are also second-order demon beasts that will occasionally appear.
Like first- and second-order demon beasts, high-level monks in the Qi Refining Realm can be easily killed. Third-order demon beasts, high-level cultivators of the Qi Refining Realm, if they want to kill alone, there is already a big problem, but there is a theoretical possibility.
At noon, I saw a blue light rising on Tielin Island, and then a roar resounded through the islands. The disciples who knew knew that this was the Yuan Dan Realm elder of the sect who had unlocked the entrance seal on Tielin Island. After a while, after the Great True Man leaves, he can take a boat to Tielin Island.
Strangely, in the first two days of the opening of the island, no one went there. Of course, like Gong Yingyi, even if they don't do anything, they can still cultivate quietly. Risking one's life like this is nothing more than obtaining cultivation spiritual materials. If you have the conditions, you don't have to.
On the third day of the opening of Tielin Island, two figures appeared on the beach, slowly walking towards a medium-sized boat.
"Yo, two junior brothers, are you going to Tielin Island?"
"Yes, brother, I don't know when the boat will start!"
"Don't hide it from the two junior brothers, go to Tielin Island, different from other islands, you need to receive two spirit crystals per person. If you have all the spirit crystals, you can start the boat immediately. The two juniors and disciples only had three hours to enter Tielin Island, and they needed to rush to the shore. Otherwise, I will sail away according to the rules of the sect. The next day, we will pick up the two again. ”
"You won't slander people, right? The disciples of the True Martial Palace, how do you come into contact with people, they are becoming more and more unreliable!
"Haha! Senior Brother Yangming, I'm acting in strict accordance with the rules of the sect. If Senior Brother Xu finds out, I won't be able to eat and walk around. ”
"Fourth, give this person four spirit crystals, let's go and see first!"
After the boat sailed away, Dugu Yangming scolded again: "Which golden-faced straw bag surnamed Xu knows that he is revolving around the children of the family." All day long, I only know that I have a straight face and a stinky shelf. Sooner or later, I will defeat him with dignity and make him beg me for mercy. ”
The person in charge of the boat just laughed "hehe" and "hehe", but he didn't answer.
The boat traveled for about half an hour and came to the small bridge. The man in charge of the boat said: "Two junior brothers, the place you are going has arrived. ”
Dugu Yangming jumped off the boat and walked towards Tielin Island. Linghu Xu asked respectfully, "I don't know what senior brother is called?"
"My surname is Quan, and I am three terms ahead of you. ”
"Thank you, Senior Brother Quan! I'll come here as soon as I go with my second brother!"
It is said that when the two entered the forest, they did not dare to go deeper into the forest, and only wandered around the beach.
"Second brother, this doesn't seem to be a monster!"
"We're waiting for the demon beast now, and that's the demon beast looking for us. If you want to find it, go inside, there must be. One or two, it doesn't hurt at all, I'm afraid that if there are many at once, it will be troublesome. We now have limited spiritual power, and we can cast the Dao method up to four times a day. This is no joke. Take a walk around again and see how it goes. ”
The two of them went around for another half an hour, and were about to sit down to rest, when an angry roar came. The roar, like a cow and a leopard, suddenly sharp, suddenly low. Walk up like a horse.
Ling Hu Xu said hurriedly: "What kind of demon beast is this?
"Wait, kill it, just ask!"
"Second brother, when is this coming, you are still joking!"
"Shhhh ”
"Roar!" stopped the demon beast, and a demon beast shaped like a seven-month-old cow roared out, its eyes emitting a red light, and its mane was extremely bright.
Dugu Yangming scolded: "His stinky sister's turned out to be a third-order demon beast. I'm afraid of it!"
"Second brother, where is the door of this demon beast?"
"Bold demon beast, your cover door is there, report it quickly, otherwise, you will be killed on the spot." ”
Ling Hu Xu was laughed angrily, shook his head and said, "Second brother, you are only really!"
When the two of them were looking for a flaw in the demon beast, with a "bluff", the demon beast flew with four hooves and rushed towards Dugu Yangming. Dugu Yang was already on guard by 10,000 tomorrow, and before the demon beast attacked, he had already gathered his spirit in his right hand and began to use the thunder control technique. He has cultivated this thunder control technique to the third level, the thunder samadhi. When the demon beast approached, three bolts of lightning came out of his hand, hitting the demon beast's mouth, nose, and forehead at a speed like a wind.
Urgent, castrated fast. The demon beast couldn't dodge for a while, and was hit hard by the lightning control technique. When the demon beast was injured, a series of water arrows came with the wind and pierced the bridge of the nose. The demon beast staggered, but did not fall, intending to flee back to the forest. At this time, the feet of the demon beast suddenly became weak, and the four hooves seemed to be tied by something. Then, a series of water arrows hit him in the forehead.
After this blow, the demon beast fell heavily to the ground, rolled its eyes, and died quietly.
"Second brother, your quicksand technique has also been cultivated to the third level?"
Dugu Yangming observed the demon beast and replied disdainfully: "This still needs to be asked, this demon beast may weigh two hundred catties." We were able to carry the whole body back. ”
"Makes sense!"
When carrying the demon beast, Ling Hu Xu couldn't help much, so Dugu Yangming simply let him walk in front, and he dragged the corpse to the small bridge alone.
Linghu Xuzheng asked, "Second brother, we each cast two Dao methods, in fact, we can also jointly kill a demon beast!"
"Kill, of course you can kill. It's just that if you and I are exhausted, we encounter a demon beast again, what should we do? With this third-order demon beast, you can buy a low-level Ruyi magic weapon, as well as a sharp blade that is enough to dissect the third-order demon beast. In the future, you won't have to work so hard!"
"Second brother, I want to save some spirit crystals and buy the magic weapon repair furnace of the Qi Hall, when I have nothing to do, I can ponder and ponder. ”
"Hey, little four, that's good! In terms of cultivation, the second brother will definitely support you! It's just that the spiritual materials on this demon beast can obtain up to three hundred spirit crystals. The monsters that will be fought in the back will start collecting for you. ”
"Which of you are going to work on which of the seven halls of the sect?"
"How can I have your careful eyes, learning from others all day long, thinking about this and that!"
The two talked and laughed, crossed the small bridge, and came to the shore. The strength of the cultivator of the Qi Refining Realm has already exceeded several times that of the normal physique, and with a flick of Dugu Yangming's hand, he threw the demon beast into the cabin. He wiped his face with seawater and shouted, "Boatman, go back!"
Zou De stared at the demon beast, and suddenly said, "Green beetle cow!"
"Hey, what bulls, cows! Let's get out of the boat!"
Zou De ignored Dugu Yangming's shout, reached out and touched the cow's nose, and muttered: "The third level of the thunder control technique is really infinitely powerful, but if you want to cultivate to the third level, it will take at least three years or more to do it!"
"Senior Brother Zou, what are you looking at?"
Zou De suddenly woke up and said with a smile: "The two junior brothers don't know that this green beetle cow is one of the strongest demon beasts on Tielin Island, and it is also one of the most precious demon beasts. Only the new blood of this frog cow is enough to exchange for 300 spirit crystals, plus the cow tendon is the main material of alchemy, the cowhide is the main material of the refining array, and the cow bone is the main material of the refining vessel. The total income is probably between eight hundred and nine hundred spirit crystals. However, the two junior brothers are a little lucky!", he said, and also turned on the boat and returned to the main island.
"What kind of fluke? You sail a boat, and you can't see people with a dog's eye?"
"Haha! Senior Brother Yangming, you stinky mouth, you can really stink to death! Don't you know, only the Thunder Dao Method is the most effective way to deal with frog cows. It's just that this stupid cow only knows how to attack with brute force, which is why you two can get it so easily. It's not an exaggeration to say it's a fluke!"
"Oh! With this little cultivation sect, I won't have a comfortable day!
Dugu Yangming looked at the gradually slanting sunset, stunned, and said in his heart: "This is a bumper harvest that is really obtained with strength!"
