Volume 2, Chapter 92 of the Cliff of Lingshan Locking the Evil Dragon, The Fish and the Bear's Paw
Since Lei Ao got his concubine's 'order', his anxious heart has finally settled down, but every time he sees Su Zhi's bedroom, he is still struggling with whether to go in.
Under such worry, three days have passed, and I don't know if this Su Zhi really went mad and died, or if he was angry with Lei Ao, three days have passed, and he still hasn't come out.
But because of the concubine's words, Lei Ao decided that he should wait longer, but when three days passed, he finally couldn't help it.
"It's too much to deceive, too much to deceive!"
Lei Ao howled in a low voice outside Su Zhi's door, Su Zhi has been in retreat for a month, he can't bear it for a month, he can't sleep well, let alone cultivate, he is a pampered city lord, and now he has simply become a down-and-out cultivator, no, it's even more down-and-out than a loose cultivator.
Anyway, it's just one word, miserable, Lei Ao feels that he is too miserable.
"I can't go on like this, if I go on like this, the elder named disciple has not been done, but the life of the city lord has been lost, the last day, I will come again tomorrow, and no matter whether this Zhuo Feng can come out or not, I will go in." ”
After making up his mind, Lei Ao left angrily.
In the enchantment, Su Zhi looked calm and sat with his eyes closed.
He didn't know that because of his sudden retreat, Lei Ao was as anxious as an ant on a hot pot, of course, even if he knew now, he was in no mood to pay attention to it, and now, he himself was already in a mess.
"What's going on? I stepped into the eighth layer of qi refining when the one hundred and eighth aperture was broken, why am I still in the eighth layer of qi refining now?"
Su Zhi frowned slightly, puzzled in his heart.
In the ten days after taking Liuliguo, in ten days, the tricks on his body broke through directly from one hundred and seven to the one hundred and forty-fourth tricks, and on the ten days, he worked hard and bravely to break the thirty-seven tricks, but in addition to the thirty-seven more tricks in his body, Li Ai saved mana, he actually didn't encounter a bottleneck?
It was unbelievable, but since he hadn't hit a bottleneck yet, he must have not had enough of his knack - he thought.
So, Su Zhi decided to use all the power that could be used to impact the bottleneck, pills, spirit stones, in short, all the things that are conducive to boosting mana were taken out by him, and finally, to this day, he broke through the one hundred and sixty-fifth acupoint, but what made him uneasy was that he still did not encounter a bottleneck.
This puzzled him, you must know that he had broken through the realm before, and he would usually encounter the next layer after breaking through a dozen or twenty tricks, but this time, he had broken fifty-eight tricks in a row, and he still hadn't broken through the bottleneck, no, he hadn't encountered the bottleneck.
"Refining the nine layers of qi, the mana is complete, if you realize a complete legal intention, you can use the legal intention to attract the rules of heaven and earth, and achieve the way to build the foundation. ”
This sentence was recorded in the classics by the Meteorite Sect, and it was also common knowledge that everyone knew in practice, but now, Su Zhi had doubts about it.
"If the ninth layer of qi refining can be perfected, then why is it that in the commentary of the Feather Sutra, the 'ventilation chapter' of the first layer, that is, the stage of my current cultivation, if you want to achieve perfection, you must break the three hundred and sixty-five points of the whole body?
Su Zhi found that he seemed to have been ignoring this problem before, maybe this was because his realm was not enough at the beginning, or maybe it was an instinctive avoidance?
And now when Su Zhi has to face this problem, he has no way to avoid it.
"The wonder of the Feather Sutra does not need to be said, the record in it will never be wrong, since there is no problem with the Feather Sutra, then there is only one possibility. ”
After thinking about it repeatedly, Su Zhi became more and more sure of his guess, "The Qi refining period is more than nine layers. ”
When he first practiced the Feather Transformation Sutra, he had guessed whether only by opening up the three hundred and sixty-five points could he be regarded as cultivating the Qi Refining Realm to perfection, and now it seems that his original conjecture was right.
"Hmph, yes or no, I just need to follow the path of the Feather Sutra, and the answer will be revealed. ”
Su Zhi waved his hand, and several medium-grade spirit stones appeared, feeling the rich aura on them, and as soon as he turned around, the one hundred and sixty-five points that had been opened in his body were frantically absorbed.
Following.
After a night of absorption and adjustment, the one hundred and sixty-five points in Su Zhi's body have been filled with mana, and Su Zhi's whole person has also been raised to an unprecedented state, at this moment, he moves at will, and he feels that his whole body has endless mana, and this mana is thick, I am afraid that it is not much worse than Li Yunqiong, especially in terms of quality, I don't know how much purer than Li Yunqiong's mana?
"With my current mana, if I meet Li Yunqiong, I can suppress him in a dignified manner. ”
With the improvement of realm and mana, Su Zhi's self-confidence naturally improved.
"Zhuo Gongzi is here?"
At this moment, a voice came into Su Zhi's ears.
"Huh?"
Su Zhi was slightly angry, he laid down the enchantment talisman and obviously told the other party that he was in retreat at the moment, and the other party even forcibly used his divine sense to break through the enchantment and transmit the sound to him, fortunately he had already finished his retreat, if he was cultivating to the critical point at this moment, the consequences would be unimaginable.
"The last time I was in the Chijin Mountains, this Lei Ao had already appeared, but he only made a move at the end, obviously because I was unreasonable to him before and deliberately did it, but more importantly, it should make me feel grateful to Dade, so that I can ask for retribution. ”
Su Zhi is a stupid person, maybe he couldn't see through the other party's methods at the beginning, but afterwards, he found the problem after a little recollection.
"Although I was ashamed of this arrogant method, it did save my life at that time. The grace of saving my life, I don't dare to forget it, but if I want to hold Su hostage because of this, then he is despicable. ”
Su Zhi's face became more and more gloomy, Lei Ao's move was too despicable in his opinion.
Fortunately, Lei Ao didn't know what Su Zhi was thinking at the moment, otherwise he really wanted to cry without tears, he guarded it for a month, but he didn't get the benefits, and he was misunderstood by Su Zhi at this moment, which was really bad for eight lifetimes.
"Childe has not been out of retreat for a month, Lei is really worried, he has offended today. ”
After Lei Ao transmitted the sound again, the mana in his hand moved, and with a palm, he slapped the enchantment talisman laid by Su Zhi, but when his palm was about to touch the enchantment, something happened that stunned him, and the enchantment that still existed a while ago suddenly disappeared at this moment.
The high-level realm talisman can resist the attack of the cultivator in the late stage of qi refining, in order to break through this barrier with one blow, Lei Ao used six or seven percent of his mana, but now the palm he slapped out of six or seven percent of his mana was actually empty.
This strong sense of frustration almost made him vomit blood.
At this time, the door of Su Zhi's room opened, and he came to Lei Ao in a green shirt, looking at the depressed Lei Ao, Su Zhi was a little embarrassed.
Before Lei Ao's sentence of 'one month', Su Zhi suddenly woke up, and he seemed to blame Lei Ao for his mistakes.
Before reaching the foundation, there was no grain at all, that is to say, you have to use grains to replenish energy, because of the reason for taking glazed fruits, although you haven't eaten for a month, it's okay, but this Lei Ao doesn't know.
"This retreat is really sudden, which makes the Thunder City Lord worried, and the kid is ashamed. ”
Su Zhi hugged his fists to apologize, if he was still suspicious of this Lei Ao before, then now he is really grateful to the other party.
Originally, Lei Ao also wanted to put on a face for Su Zhi and let him know that he was a foundation building monk after all, but seeing Su Zhi's sincere apology, most of the depression in his heart disappeared, especially after feeling that he might have passed this 'test' perfectly, he was in a more cheerful mood.
"Where did Childe speak, Childe can trust Lei to cultivate here from Lei, but Lei was abrupt and disturbed Childe's cultivation, and I hope Childe is not strange. ”
......
The two exchanged pleasantries, and in addition to Lei Ao's greeting, it was already lunchtime before they knew it, Lei Ao invited Su Zhi to sit at the table, and Su Zhi naturally readily agreed.
"Childe try it, this 'bear paw and fish' is a famous local dish, although it is not as delicious as the sect, but it is also unique. ”
"Oh?"
Su Zhi sighed lightly, and was not polite, he put a piece of fish shreds in his mouth and sucked it carefully, "The duo juice is fat, and it melts in the mouth, it is really the best in the dish." ”
Su Zhi complimented, and then clamped a bear paw.
"Huh?"
Su Zhi frowned, the fish just now was indeed delicious and evocative, but this bear's paw?
"Is Childe wondering why the taste of the same dish is so different?" Su Zhi's reaction seemed to have been expected by Lei Ao, so he asked.
Su Zhi nodded, the previous shredded fish could indeed afford the word 'famous dish', but the taste of this bear's paw is not to mention being called a 'famous dish', when it comes to ordinary, it can be regarded as a compliment, because it is really unpalatable, and I am afraid it is not as good as a novice chef.
"Does Childe know Confucianism?"
Lei Ao did not answer Su Zhi directly, but asked rhetorically.
"Confucianism?"
Su Zhi was puzzled: The sect established by the scholars and literati who rushed to take the exam in the secular world became the Confucian school? However, what the other party said was obviously not this.
"Could it be?"
A light flashed in Su Zhi's mind, as if he had seen this 'Confucianism' in the classics of the Falling Star Sect.
In ancient times, the demon race was at its peak, ravaging the heavens and the earth, just when the human race could not resist, a self-proclaimed 'Confucianism' school in the cultivation world arose, the people of this school, the mana is not outstanding, and the Taoism is not smart, but with a heroic righteousness, it is hard to suppress the arrogance of the demon race, and even let it disappear in ancient times.
"Childe guessed correctly, it is the ancient Confucianism. ”
"This 'bear's paw and fish' is taken from its school of thought, 'fish I want, bear paw also I want, you can't have both, give up the fish and take the bear's paw." 'The doctrine of the developed dishes. ”
"Of course, Childe may not understand what I mean when he says this, but Childe can know that this fish and bear's paw also correspond: 'Life, also what I want, righteousness, also what I want, you can't have both, and those who sacrifice their lives to take righteousness are also'." And these two sentences are equally applicable to us in terms of cultivation, where 'birth' is like the power we chase on the surface, and 'righteousness' is like the foundation that we ignore. ”
"Is the Lord of Lei City using this to tell Zhuo, don't sacrifice your roots?"
