Chapter 9: The Mysterious White Shadow
Ten days have passed in a blink of an eye, and with the efforts of Qingluhuo, the grains in the courtyard have finally matured and produced plump fruits, which made Wang Yong stunned.
Wang Mang immediately went to pick with Wang Mang, but the seedlings could not be pulled out. Unlike ordinary grains, the grains that have been strengthened by the heron fire can be harvested many times, and this is only the first batch, and it can be harvested again after ten days.
Grinding the newly picked grains into noodles and making them into big steamed buns and serving them on the table, Wang Yong's eyes widened and his eyebrows jumped.
"I said, brother, what are you planting? How are they colorful, can you eat this thing?"
"This is called the Five-Colored Essence Grain, which is a good thing for us cultivators, of course you can eat it, you can understand it when you take a bite. ”
Wang Mang smiled, reached out and grabbed a steamed bun and took a big bite.
A sweet taste filled the cavity, and then turned into a stream of heat and rushed into the body, and in an instant, the whole body seemed to be on fire, the body temperature rose violently, and the skin turned red in the blink of an eye, as if drunk, and there were streams of heat coming out of the middle of the head.
Wang Yong jumped up when he saw it, "Brother, are you okay, your face is red, this thing can't be poisonous, right? ”
Wang Mang grabbed him and smiled, "Poisoning? You don't know how refreshing I feel now, if this is also called poisoning, I would rather be in the middle of the day." Saying that, Wang Mang wiped out the steamed buns in his hand in three or two bites, and then put his hands together and grabbed two more, and they were all reimbursed in less than a minute.
opened his mouth and burped, and a hot breath rushed out of his mouth, as if he had eaten three catties of red pepper.
"It's really good, it's not a loss of five-color refined grain, with my meal of at least three catties of rice, I only eat three steamed buns to be full. Not bad!"
Wang Yong observed Wang Mang carefully, afraid that he would suddenly die of poison, and that careful look made Wang Mang laugh.
"Look at your timid look? I'm not stupid, can't I even tell the difference between poison and food? Take one and eat one, and you'll know how precious this thing is when you eat it." It's not that for the sake of your boy and me, I am reluctant to give you food. ”
Wang Yong reluctantly took a big steamed bun and put it in front of him to look at it carefully. This kind of steamed bun is very large, very soft and elastic. The big bowl used for eating is full with only one pot, and this steamed bun is still five colors, red, yellow, blue, white and green. No matter how you look at it, it doesn't look like normal food, but it looks like poison, which is the reason why Wang Yong muttered in his heart.
At this time, Wang Mang snorted and stared at him with his eyes open, Wang Yong had no choice but to grit his teeth and close his eyes, open his mouth and bite it.
"Huh, this smells...... Not bad, ah...... It's!"
In less than a second, Wang Yong felt the changes in his body, his body temperature rose rapidly, and his body was like soaking in a hot spring, which was very enjoyable from the inside out. At the same time, the aura in the Purple Mansion actually reacted, and the speed of flow increased significantly, three or four times faster than usual.
"How's it going? Now you know the benefits of the five-color essence grain, right?"
"Brother, is this thing like an elixir, which helps to restore the aura?" Wang Yong's eyes widened, his face full of surprise.
Wang Mang nodded, "You also know, I won a Guiyuan Pill when I defeated Wang Shijie, that thing is in our Wang family, only direct children have it, and each direct child can only get three pills every year, which is quite a precious elixir." After taking the Guiyuan Pill, the speed of the aura is greatly improved, and the strength can be restored faster. ”
Wang Yong nodded, although he had never eaten Guiyuan Dan, he was already familiar with its efficacy.
"You mean, the effect of food made from five-color essence grains is similar to that of Guiyuan Dan?"
"That's right, if you compare, the effect of this steamed bun is roughly the same as that of a Guiyuan Dan. I ate three steamed buns in a row just now, which is equivalent to eating three Guiyuan Dan, which is a year's inventory of direct children. ”
As soon as he heard that the steamed bun in his hand was so effective, Wang Yong wiped it out in two bites, and reached out to take it again, but at this moment, a hot breath came up from his chest and lungs, and he involuntarily opened his mouth and burped loudly, he was already full.
Wang Mang laughed, patted Wang Yong's shoulder, shook his head and said, "Brother, good things should also be done according to your ability, with your physique, a steamed bun is the limit." I don't think you can eat anything in three days, haha, it looks like you're out of luck. ”
Wang Yong was just about to take a pity, but he was suddenly stunned and found that his Purple Mansion had actually reached a state of perfection.
"Brother, my Purple Mansion has reached a state of consummation. ”
"So what? You haven't consumed much lately, and it's normal to eat a five-color steamed bun and reach a state of perfection?"
"No, this is a state of consummation, you forgot, I completed the evolution of flesh and skin half a year ago, and I have been cultivating for this time, wanting to make the Purple Mansion reach consummation, so that I can evolve my bones and break through to the second level of supernatural powers, but I have been unable to do it for more than half a year. Unexpectedly, it has reached it now. ”
Wang Mang then understood what was going on, speaking of which, he had just experienced this situation some time ago, but he had a special physique, and there was no adaptation period at all, and he easily reached the consummation state of the Purple Mansion by relying on Guiyuan Dan.
But Wang Yong can't, he has been in the adaptation period for half a year, if it weren't for the medicinal power of the five-color essence grain this time, I'm afraid it wouldn't be able to adapt for another half a year.
"That's great, you immediately bring some five-colored steamed buns to the retreat mountain, there are still twenty days, you should be able to complete the bone evolution, reach the second level of supernatural powers, and then go to the martial arts competition to make your name." ”
Wang Yong was stunned, he didn't think about it when he participated in the martial arts competition, but he knew what kind of goods he was, and he was just a supernatural person, and he was humiliated by participating. But now it's different, if it's really like Wang Mang said, if he can break through the double of supernatural powers, then his strength can rank in the middle and upper middle among the younger generation of the Wang family.
There are regulations in this martial arts competition, only people under the age of thirty are allowed to participate, and the average strength of this part of the people is the double level of supernatural powers, and those who can reach the triple level of divine power are considered masters, and those who reach the quadruple of supernatural powers like Wang Haoyue are the only ones.
"I ...... I'm really going to be able to participate in the tournament?
"As long as you work hard, not only can you participate in the martial arts competition, but also achieve good results, come on, I believe you can." ”
Receiving Wang Mang's encouragement, Wang Yong felt full of confidence, and immediately brought enough dry food for twenty days, as well as enough five-color essence food, to go to the retreat mountain, preparing to assault the second heavy Shenzhong.
Sending Wang Yong away, Wang Mang gathered all the five-colored essence grains harvested this time, and with a wave of his hand, he opened the Hundred Ghosts Night Walking Diagram and collected them all.
Now Wang Mang's strength is still too weak to give full play to the power of the Hundred Ghosts Night Walking Diagram, but the simple opening and closing can still be done, and it is used as a huge storage magic weapon. Instructing his servants to watch over his house, he strode to the cave in the barren mountain.
After ten days of hard work, with the help of the magic power of the Divine Fist of Mount Meru to crack the earth, the cave has now become a tunnel, with a length of thousands of meters. At the end of this tunnel, the strong mountain aura was permeated, thick like mercury, with the strength of Wang Mang's eighty horses, it was very difficult to move there, and if it was an ordinary person, I was afraid that it would be crushed into pulp.
This is where the leylines of the entire barren mountain are located, and the so-called leylines are similar to the place of the cultivator's Purple Mansion, which is the center of the entire mountain.
If a mountain is tall and majestic, then its leylines must be long and long, imposing, and even some famous mountains, their leylines can also give birth to living spirits, which is very precious and rare, and at the same time, for cultivators, that kind of living beings are dreamed of.
Whoever can get one, whether it is refined or made into a magic weapon, can greatly improve their strength. It's a pity that this kind of creature is extremely rare and hard to find.
If Wang Mang wants to practice the mountain moving chapter of the Sumeru Mountain Divine Fist, he must use the power of the leyline, and the specific method is simple and simple, as long as he uses the aura to attract the qi of the mountains into the body, and then uses the qi of the mountains to hone the various organs of the body.
It's simple, but it's hard to do. First of all, the qi of the mountains is extremely heavy, and a fist-sized mass is enough to crush the mountains, so you must be extra careful when using the aura to guide you, otherwise not only will you not be able to move the mountain, but your body will also be crushed into a meat patty.
There is also the fact that when the aura is used to attract the qi of the mountains, the consumption is very huge, and ordinary cultivators with dual supernatural powers cannot afford to consume it at all, and even the ancestors of the Wang family who created this set of supernatural powers at the beginning were also practiced after the quadruple supernatural powers.
Wang Mang is the second level of supernatural powers, and it stands to reason that he can't practice moving mountains at all, but his talent is special, he has a purple mansion capacity that far exceeds others, and there is a lot of spiritual energy stored in it, which can barely cope with it.
"There are twenty days left before the birthday of the head of the family, and the martial arts tournament will start five days earlier, which means that there are only fifteen days left for me. ”
Feeling the powerful mountain qi in front of him, Wang Mang sat cross-legged on the ground, pulled out the aura, and immediately began the work of channeling the mountain qi. He was confident, firmly believing that he would definitely be able to practice the Mountain Moving Chapter within fifteen days, and break through to the third level of supernatural powers.
Just when Wang Mang was devoting himself to cultivation, at the other end of the leyline, between the rocks less than three hundred meters away from here, there was actually a crystal-like cup.
There was a terrible cold air on the surface of this cup, which froze all the rocks within a hundred meters of the surrounding stone into ice stones, and directly above the cup, there was a white mist, and in the mist, there was a woman dressed in white, with her hair and skin white, lying there with her eyes closed.
Suddenly, the woman's eyebrows moved, and she opened them suddenly, and two blue lights flashed in the mist, and where the blue light swept, the rocks cracked one after another, and they were actually frozen and cracked because the temperature was too low.
At this time, the blue light in the woman's eyes gradually disappeared, and she turned over and stood up, her eyes staring straight in one direction, as if she had found something. And the direction she was looking at happened to be the place where Wang Mang retreated and cultivated.
In the barren mountain veins, Wang Mang sat here for a day and a night, and the heavy mountain qi was slowly injected into the body with the aura as the guide, and then according to the cultivation method of the Sumeru Mountain Divine Fist Moving Mountains, all gathered in the right arm, and began to expand and transform the meridians of the right arm.
The standard of the third level of supernatural power is to transform the most mysterious meridians in the body, so the name of the third level of supernatural power is called the expansion of the veins.
Like the first two skin training and bone forging, they are all transformations of the body, the only difference is that the expansion of the pulse requires not only aura, but also the power of heaven and earth. It's like the qi of the mountains in the leylines in front of you, according to different supernatural powers, borrowing the power of heaven and earth from different castes.
Because of this, when he only had a mutilated version of the Sumeru Mountain Divine Fist, no matter how strong his talent was and how large the amount of spiritual energy was, he could not cultivate to the triple level of divine power and complete the transformation of the meridians.
After a day and a night, Wang Mang decisively regained his merits and stood up. In just one day, eight of his oversized nine Purple Mansions were empty, leaving only one Purple Mansion aura.
The aura capacity of the eight Purple Mansions was enough to be comparable to twenty or thirty people if it was compared to an ordinary Divine Power Dual Cultivator. So much of the aura has been used, but only one arm has been transformed, which shows how difficult it is to cultivate the Mountain Moving Chapter, if it weren't for Wang Mang's special physique, he wouldn't be able to practice it at all if he changed to others.
After discovering this situation, Wang Mang suddenly had a feeling that perhaps the ancestor who created the Sumeru Mountain Divine Fist in the first place did not pass on the supernatural power was probably because this supernatural power was too difficult to practice.
If a normal cultivator cultivates, not only will it be difficult to achieve success, but on the contrary, he will also delay his cultivation progress and get stuck at the threshold of the triple supernatural power, and not only will he not be able to practice at that time, but he will not even be able to change his cultivation to other supernatural powers.
Although it is difficult to practice, once practiced, the power is far beyond other supernatural powers, even if it encounters the same high-grade supernatural powers, with the power of the Sumeru Mountain Divine Fist, it is enough to defeat the opponent. Looking at the entire Desolate Ancient Royal Family, I am afraid that only the legendary supreme supernatural power can suppress the Divine Fist of Mount Meru.
Looking at his right arm, although it was still the same on the surface, there was no special change, but it exuded a momentum, a dignified and majestic momentum like a mountain, as if it was not an arm, but a hundred zhang peak.
"Congratulations to the master, congratulations to the master, the cultivation of the Mountain Moving Chapter has been a small success, according to this progress, it will not take fifteen days at all, and it will be completely practiced in ten days. ”
Qingluhuo's fart slapped over, and Wang Mang was very comfortable, and when he was about to praise him a few words, a cool breeze suddenly blew in his face. It stands to reason that at this time, he is thousands of meters deep underground, and close to the leylines, it is impossible for the wind to blow, but this cool breeze is very real.
Wang Mang stretched out his hand to feel it, and suddenly, the surface of his outstretched palm began to freeze, and the ice condensed extremely fast, and in the blink of an eye, his entire left arm was sealed by ice.
"What's going on? ”
The aura was running, wanting to shatter the ice, but Wang Mang was horrified to find that the aura could not reach his left arm, and the ice not only froze his epidermis, but even the internal meridians were frozen.
Wang Mang was frightened and quickly retreated, but this freezing air was very evil, let him retreat as fast as a bird, but his body still froze quickly, and in the blink of an eye, the ice crossed his shoulders, and his legs began to freeze, so it was impossible to even move.
"Oh no, master, this is the snow girl's ghostly resentment and coldness, once you touch it, you will never die, master, hurry up and use the Hundred Ghosts Night Walking Map, otherwise it will be too late. ”
Qingluhuo shouted a warning, but it was too late, Wang Mang was just about to use the Hundred Ghosts Night Walking Diagram, but his whole body was already frozen, and he stood there as an ice sculpture.
The heron fire flew out in time, hovering around Wang Mang, looking anxious. At this moment, a woman in white flew out of the leylines, holding a small cup in her hand, like an offering cup used in the festival.
"It turned out to be a heron fire, and you got out of trouble, congratulations. ”
As soon as Qingluhuo saw this woman in white, the flames all over her body jumped violently, and she retreated four or five meters, as if she was very scared.
"Snow ...... The Snow Maiden is really you, seeing that you are doing a good job, why don't you hurry up and release the ice spirit and let the master out. ”
Xue Nu was stunned for a moment after hearing this, "Master, Qingluhuo, you are really embarrassed to us hundred ghosts, and you actually recognized a human with supernatural powers as the master, is it to get out of trouble and be willing to be his slave?"
"You are talking nonsense, how can my Qinglu Ghost King be someone else's slave, how can it be reasonable. ”
"Hmph, what is it that opened your mouth and closed your mouth to the master just now, isn't it a slave for others? I see that you are really getting more and more useless, in this case, it is up to me to make you nirvana, so that you will continue to embarrass us in the future. ”
After speaking, the Snow Girl sneered twice, held the offering cup in her hand and put it to her mouth, and opened her mouth to inhale. It seems that the cool air just now was blown out by her, but I didn't expect that just a breath of cool air would have such a great power.
"Don't don't, Snow Girl, listen to me, I have a secret, don't do it first, listen to my explanation." ”
"Hmph, you coward among a hundred ghosts, what else do you have to say, I don't listen, you go and die. ”
opened her mouth and was about to blow, but at this moment, there was a sound of ice breaking next to her, and the snow girl was taken aback, and when she turned her head to look, she saw that the ice on Wang Mang's body began to crack in a large area, and the source of the rupture was the right arm that had just been cultivated.
"How is it possible? A cultivator with dual supernatural powers can actually fight against my ice spirit. ”
In the exclamation, the ice on Wang Mang's body was completely shattered, and Wang Mang roared and punched at the Snow Girl. The Snow Girl smiled coldly, her sleeves fluttered, and she touched Wang Mang's Mountain God Fist.
"Poof"
There was a dull sound, as if a punch had been punched in the water, and there was not even a splash. Wang Mang was shocked, and at this moment, the Snow Girl had quickly turned around and came behind him, waving her sleeves again.
Wang Mang was in danger, and the powerful mountain power of his right arm exploded, and even a virtual mountain peak appeared in mid-air.
"Bang"
This time there was a loud sound like a landslide, the snow girl's face changed slightly, her body flew back quickly, her sleeves shook from side to side, and the power of the terrible mountain was resolved, it seemed that in the face of Wang Mang's right arm's attack, she could no longer easily deal with it.
The Snow Maiden was dissolving the power of the mountains on her side, and the situation on Wang Mang's side was even worse, after a blow, the surface of the transformed right arm quickly froze, and in the blink of an eye, the entire right arm was frozen in ice. Although the meridians have been completely transformed and have not been completely frozen, the flow speed of the aura has slowed down significantly, and the impact is huge.
Wang Mang hurriedly retreated, using the power of the mountains to shatter the ice.
"Qinglu Fire, is she also a member of the Hundred Ghosts Night Walk?"
Qingluhuo hurriedly flew over and hovered behind Wang Mang.
"That's right, master, this guy's name is Snow Girl, he is good at using ice and snow supernatural powers, he is very powerful, he is a martial arts faction among the hundred ghosts, and it is very difficult to deal with. ”
"What do you mean?" Wang Mang asked with a frown.
"Among our hundred ghosts, there are several factions, among which there are auxiliary factions like me, who have little combat power, but have extremely strong auxiliary abilities, and the dark witch faction who is good at cursing and plotting. And the most powerful of them is the martial arts faction, they have the least number, but each of them is extremely strong in combat, and people like me are not opponents at all. The Snow Girl is from the martial arts faction, and she is also a top-ranked powerful character in the martial arts faction. ”
The snow girl on the other side heard that Qingluhuo had told her old bottom, and her pretty face couldn't help but change color, and she snorted coldly, "Qingluhuo, you actually revealed the matter of a hundred ghosts to an outsider, I think you really don't want to live." ”
"Snow Maiden, aren't you awake yet? This is the descendant of the Evil Spirit Emperor, who inherited the master of the Hundred Ghosts Night Walking Diagram. You dare to speak like this to your master, it's too presumptuous. ”
"What? He inherited the Hundred Ghosts Nocturnal Diagram? Impossible, just by virtue of his little cultivator with two supernatural powers, Qingluhuo, you are really getting more and more stupid, do you think I will believe this kind of deception to children?"
The Snow Girl was full of sarcasm, and then used her natal weapon, that is, the cup, and put it to her mouth to prepare to use her magical powers, completely killing Wang Mang and Qinglu Huo.
At this moment, Wang Mang finally launched the Hundred Ghosts Night Walking Diagram, the powerful evil spirit clone woke up, thousands of eyes and thousands of hands opened at the same time, the snow girl was startled, instinctively felt fear, let out a scream, turned around and smashed the mountain, and disappeared.
Qingluhuo was very proud when he saw it, and his previous fear was swept away, "Haha, you know how powerful you are now, right? Master, let's chase her quickly and take her away." If she still wants to resist, you will simply destroy her mind. ”
After talking for a long time, Wang Mang stood in place and didn't move at all. Qinglu was stunned for a moment, and only after a closer look did he realize that something was wrong. I saw that Wang Mang's face was pale, his whole body was sweating, his legs were trembling, and he seemed to be unable to stand even on his feet.
"Master, what's wrong with you, are you hurt?"
"Whisper to me, if the Snow Girl hears it, neither of us will want to live. ”
Wang Mang sat on the ground, took out steamed buns made of five-color essence grains, ate three in one go, and then ran the Beidou Mind Method to restore his aura.
Using the Hundred Ghosts Nocturnal Diagram just now, although it was only a matter of a moment, Wang Mang's only remaining aura was consumed. The power of the Superb Dao Weapon is endless, and the aura consumed for each use is also terrifying. According to common sense, the minimum requirement for using Dao weapons is also to have Gang Qi, and low-level energy such as Reiki is simply not possible.
The reason why Wang Mang was able to use it reluctantly was because there was a trace of his soul mark in the evil spirit clone, and the evil spirit clone was equal to one of his clones, otherwise, it would be impossible for him to wake up the evil spirit clone. But even if it can be awakened, it is actually just a bluff, if the Snow Girl was not afraid of running away in a hurry just now, but desperately fought back, then now Wang Mang may have been killed.
After a full day, Wang Mang's aura was restored, and the green heron fire hurriedly flew over.
"Master, are you alright? It really scares me to death, if you have any three long and two short, then I don't want to live. "It's still a series of sycophants.
"Okay, tell me about this Snow Maiden, how did she end up in the leylines of the barren mountains?"
"Okay, one of the Snow Girl's hundred ghosts, she has strong combat power, and she is still ......"
Qingluhuo told him about the Snow Maiden, and the more Wang Mang listened, the more frightened he felt.
"Are you saying that a hundred years ago, there was a woman who broke into the Ancient Cave of the Charm and the Devil, and the Snow Maiden was responsible for killing her and occupying her body, but because the woman was very strong, there was an accident, and the Snow Maiden did not fully control the body, so that the woman went crazy and broke out?"
"Yes, at that time I got a part of the memory of that woman, and I knew that she was from the family of the Ancient King. Master, do you know her?"
Wang Mang's expression was serious, and he immediately remembered what Wang Yong had said to him, a hundred years ago, the amazing and brilliant female powerhouse of the Wang family came out crazy after breaking into the forbidden land, and then went on a killing spree, and even a Taishang elder in the family died in her hands, and finally this woman blew herself up, and the huge power turned a mountain into an iceberg, and it has been more than a hundred years now, and the iceberg has no sign of melting at all.
"Master, don't be discouraged, in my opinion, as long as you break through to the triple level of supernatural powers, and cooperate with the power of the Hundred Ghosts Night Walking Diagram, you will definitely be able to subdue the Snow Maiden. It's just that if you want to find her first, it's best to make a sneak attack and catch her off guard. It's a pity that she was allowed to run away just now, I don't know where she hid?"
Wang Mang smiled slightly when he heard this, "Where is her hiding place, I think I know where it is." ”
