Chapter Twenty-Three: A mountain pill is for one person
Afterwards, Lin Xiu closed his eyes and fell asleep, in the Taoyuan dream, Lin Xiu first consolidated the cultivation of the first layer of condensation, and after the spiritual power in his body swelled, he used the rest of the time to practice the sword qi technique and the cloud soaring technique.
Among these two techniques, the Tengyun Technique was already quite proficient because of the unexpected help of that little goblin. This was not the case with the Sword Qi Technique, even if Lin Xiu's spiritual power was full at the moment, when the Sword Qi Technique could occasionally be completely controlled, the power was pitifully small. But Lin Xiu did not give up his cultivation of sword qi because of this, how powerful was he temporarily put it down, and he only wanted to reach out and hit the spiritual power through two fingers.
After this night, Lin Xiu's chance of succeeding in using the Sword Qi technique had been increased to forty percent.
When I woke up, it was dark. Lin Xiu suddenly remembered that Brother Shangguan had said that he would send the pill early in the morning, so he hurriedly went out and ran into the alchemy building.
When I raised my eyes, I saw that the master was looking at a Ding furnace with flying eyebrows, and seemed to be extremely dissatisfied with some of the pills in the furnace, so he habitually picked it up and smelled it, and then threw it away.
"Master, ...... you" Lin Xiu was greatly surprised, because at this moment, Master's face was ruddy, and the whole person seemed to be more energetic than when he first saw him.
The master turned his head and smiled at Lin Xiu, and then beckoned Lin Xiu to come to his side. He uncovered another Ding furnace and took out a cloud of colorful things the size of Lin Xiu's fist.
"Master, why don't you breathe well and start alchemy again?" Lin Xiu asked.
The master smiled and said, "I am very energetic for the teacher, and what else is pranayama." Just now, your senior brother Shangguan came here, and he asked for a bottle of 'Huiyuan Dan' from the master, which was a high-grade good thing, and it took him half a year to refine it three years ago. But I don't need it, I'll talk about it later when I need it. ”
Looking at Master's good face, Lin Xiu still asked with some suspicion, "Master, have you really recovered?"
The master just smiled and didn't answer the question again, but handed Lin Xiu the colorful thing in his hand that looked like dough.
"Eat it, and that's your breakfast. Master said.
Lin Xiu was holding that thing in his hand, and he really didn't have much appetite, but when he saw that it was prepared for him by his master, he took a bite of it. After tasting it, Lin Xiu only felt that this thing was extremely bitter, and he almost spit it out of his mouth. The cat-faced goblin hiding in his clothes poked out his head, and after sniffing it forward, he immediately retracted into Lin Xiu's arms.
"Hehehe, isn't it delicious?" asked the master with a smile.
Lin Xiu frowned at the bitterness of that thing, and asked, "Master, what the hell is this, why is it so bitter?"
"The medicine is bitter, this is the 'rootless fruit' that I have spent a lot of effort refining to refine, don't think it's bitter, this kind of elixir, don't even think about it from those senior brothers on your mountain. Master said, "The rootless fruit can enhance your physique, and the second can help you absorb aura, and most importantly, the rootless fruit can be directly transformed into gentle spiritual power in your body, so that the muscles and veins around your body are more suitable to merge with the aura. ”
The rootless fruit in Qi Heng's mouth is actually the "Sanqing Pill", and the effect is indeed as he said, which is very helpful for cultivation. The white-clothed disciples of the Zhongnan Sect can receive one pill a month, all of which are regarded as treasures, and many people will accumulate them, and they will only take them when they are cultivating to the Great Advancement. In order to take care of Lin Xiu, Qi Heng deliberately made the Sanqing Pill the size of a wild fruit, and when he ate one, it was equivalent to the amount of other disciples for two years. If this kind of thing was known to others, Qi Heng would inevitably be blamed. Therefore, he thought of a name for the rootless fruit, so as not to leak out of Lin Xiu's words.
After taking the "Fake Pill" last night, Qi Heng's spiritual power in his body was completely improved, although the external appearance was still the same as before, but in fact, his current cultivation was close to the Dan stage. But the consequences of this practice of consuming life span to improve cultivation are extremely serious, if Qi Heng can't get married in more than ten years, he will inevitably die of a broken vein.
But in order for Lin Xiu to continue to move forward on the road of cultivation, Qi Heng didn't care about this. Lin Xiu is like an old man to him, even if his family background is not thick, he will never wronged Lin Xiu. In addition to this rootless fruit, based on his many years of experience in alchemy, Qi Heng also thought of a lot of pills to assist in Qi Condensation cultivation, but Lin Xiu's roots were still shallow and needed to be gradual, but the fist-sized Sanqing Pill at the beginning of his first was enough to make all the white-clothed disciples salivate.
As soon as he heard that this ugly and unpalatable thing in his hand was beneficial to cultivation, Lin Xiu immediately devoured it.
After eating, Lin Xiu sat aside to learn alchemy from the master, and the two of them chatted and talked about it, and then mentioned Lin Xiu's father.
Suddenly, Lin Xiu's mind flashed, and then he said to the master: "Master, the disciple has been out for a while, and Daddy is alone at home, I am a little worried, and I want to take time to go back and visit." First, I came to report his safety, and secondly, I also told him that I had entered the Zhongnan faction. ”
Master nodded and said, "That's how it should be, but Master has to do alchemy every day, and I don't know when I will be able to give you a ride." ”
Lin Xiu said: "The disciple doesn't need to be sent off by the master, there is a convoy at the foot of the mountain that will pass through Zhong Nanshan and Chang'an Town, and it will be possible to come back in about three or four months." ”
Lin Xiu secretly thought: It is estimated that it will take about a month to go to Chang'an Town with the Tengyun Technique, and it will inevitably delay at least half a year for the turtle to fall asleep, but as long as he can come back safely, he will be punished by the master at most.
So, Lin Xiu asked tentatively: "But I'm afraid that Daddy will keep me at home for a while, if it's delayed for a long time, I don't know if it will make Master embarrassed?"
Without thinking about it, the master suddenly laughed, "What's so embarrassing, if you weren't worried that you had a three-year condensation agreement with the senior brother in charge when you started, it wouldn't matter if you went to a master for a year and a half." ”
The master of the mountain gate is strict with his disciples, and he is easily not allowed to go home to visit relatives, this is for the prosperity of his disciples, and the disciples can have good cultivation, and the second is to cut off the mundane thoughts of the disciples. However, it is also the rule of the Zhongnan faction that allows one time after entering the school, and the time is also relatively relaxed, as long as the master agrees, there will be no problem within a year. However, the other masters of the Zhongnan Sect have always been strict, and even if they agree to let their disciples go home, the time will never exceed a month. And Xiaoquanfeng went back and forth between the two of them, and there were no rules to follow in the past, and it is not difficult to imagine the relaxation in these aspects.
If it weren't for the master, Lin Xiu would have almost forgotten that he still had to condense his qi within three years. But now that he has succeeded in condensing, he doesn't need to worry at all. After listening to what the master said, he said confidently: "Master rest assured, after returning home, the disciple will definitely succeed in condensing his qi within a year." ”
Qi Heng thought about it for a while, and felt that it would be good to let Lin Xiu go home. As long as he has his own pill body, even if Lin Xiu does nothing in the cultivation realm in the future, it will not be difficult to protect his condensation within a year. Even if Lin Xiu's talent is extremely poor, even if he works hard, he will not let the senior brother in charge drive Lin Xiu out of the Zhongnan faction.
So, Qi Heng said: "Okay, Lin Xiu, you have to be careful after you go down the mountain, come back safely, and the day of going down the mountain will be postponed for a few days, and the master will refine some rootless fruits for you, you take them with you, and eat one every day." ”
Lin Xiu nodded hurriedly, and his heart jumped with joy. It is one thing to have the opportunity to sleep and break through the dream of Taoyuan, but more importantly, Lin Xiu can finally see Daddy, even if he can only see his old man's safety, Lin Xiu's heart will be greatly settled.
While waiting to go down the mountain, the master was refining the pills in the Dan Tower, while Lin Xiu insisted on cultivating. After eating the rootless fruit, the effect did not show the slightest in normal times, but once he entered the dream realm, Lin Xiu immediately found that he had improved to a certain extent in terms of the speed of absorbing spiritual energy and the magnitude of the limit. Ten days later, Lin Xiu's sword qi technique's success rate increased slightly, reaching the fifth layer. And he is able to control a cloud of white clouds on his own and soar freely in the dream space.
In the early morning of the tenth day, the sky was slightly bright, and Lin Xiu, accompanied by his master, flew down Zhong Nanshan. The master handed Lin Xiu a bulging package.
"Apprentice, there are some broken silver and a set of clothes in this bag, and a hundred rootless fruits, you go outside, and the master will refine them for you, but you also have to remember to eat one every day. After seeing your father, remember to come back quickly, those people on the mountain are thinking about seeing your jokes in three years, and Master will not let them get their way. Saying that, Qi Heng showed a little reluctance on his face, but soon smiled again: "Go back and tell your father, just say that the master on the mountain values you very much." ”
Lin Xiu smiled knowingly: "Master, you also have to take care of yourself. ”
After the master and apprentice said goodbye, Lin Xiu didn't immediately perform the Tengyun Technique, he planned to walk for a day first, and wait until he was far away from Zhong Nanshan.
After walking along the path he came from for a few hours, Lin Xiu suddenly saw a middle-aged man in a purple robe standing in front of him.
"Master Meng Yang?" After seeing the other party's face clearly, Lin Xiu couldn't help but frown.
