Chapter 11: Dusty Memory
A familiar image suddenly came to mind.
A young man carried a medicine basket on his back to collect herbs on the small green hill behind the village, and walked around the mountain for a long time, picking some valuable herbs, preparing to go down the mountain to go home, passing by a cave, the young man stopped. Every time you go down the mountain, this cave entrance is a must-pass, but I never dared to enter it before.
On the same day, the boy came to the entrance of the stone cave again, I don't know why, maybe it was the curiosity that the boy had, so he couldn't help but want to go in and explore.
The boy removed the medicine basket from his back and set it aside. Looking at the dark hole, my heart fluttered, and although I was nervous, I still felt into the depths of the hole.
The young man held on to the stone wall with both hands, silently counting how many steps he had walked in, and when he counted to fifty steps, the stone cave suddenly turned to the right. Looking back at the hole with a glimmer of light behind him, he wanted to return to the hole. But I don't know why, the curiosity and impulse in my heart made the teenager make the decision to continue deeper.
After walking for almost a hundred steps, there were two more turns, but fortunately there were no forks in the cave until now. The boy seemed to be enchanted, and the more he walked, the more he wanted to go deeper, and he couldn't remember how many steps he had taken, but he felt that the deeper he went, the more he felt a chill.
Suddenly, a faint, strange sound of rapid breathing came into the young man's ears, and he was startled, and he tried to suppress his violently beating heart, and carefully touched it in the direction of the sound.
As we got closer, the voice grew clearer, and it could be heard as a man.
After walking a short distance, the passage suddenly became a little narrow, and when he came to this narrow passage, the young man looked in. I saw that the space inside suddenly became wide, although it was dim, but there was a glimmer of light.
In the blur, I saw a man and a woman in the stone cave, the woman was dressed in white and lay across the stone bed, but the man couldn't wait to untie his clothes, and was about to do something to the woman who was lying there without knowing anyone.
Seeing this, the young man suddenly understood the scene in front of him, his heart was shocked, and he unconsciously retreated, but because he was too nervous, he accidentally tripped on a stone under his feet, and his body fell backwards with a stumble, and he couldn't help but let out a soft cry.
This soft cry alarmed the man who was about to do his good deeds, but the man was startled, hurriedly put his clothes on his body, glanced back in the direction of the exit, and immediately found the boy who had fallen.
I saw a trace of coldness and resentment flash in the man's eyes, his body shook, and he fled towards the outside of the cave, and at the same time, with a wave of his right hand, he shot a magic decision, only to see a cold mant swishing towards the young man lying on the ground.
The boy who fell to the ground was about to get up, when he suddenly felt that it was dark in front of him, and he lost consciousness. Just as the man passed by the young man, the cold light that hit the young man just now was strangely reflected and hit the man, only to hear a miserable scream, and the man fled in a hurry.
Only the unconscious boy and the woman in white on the stone bed were left in the stone cave. I don't know how long it took, but the woman gradually woke up, and when she realized what had happened, she was afraid.
She only remembered that when she passed by this small green mountain, she saw a strange flower that was very beautiful and holy, and she fell, and when she came to the flower, she only felt a strange fragrance coming, and suddenly her head was dizzy and she lost consciousness.
Walking out of the stone cave, the woman saw the boy who had fallen to the ground, felt his pulse, and found that there was no major problem, but he was unconscious.
Glancing at the young man, the woman said in her heart: "If it weren't for you today, I'm afraid I would have been innocent and humiliated under the clutches of the devil!"
Then he picked up the boy and fled out of the cave, and when he came to the entrance of the cave, the woman gently put it aside, sighed, and the figure flashed, and fled into the distance, and disappeared without a trace in a moment.
Coming back from his memory, Ling Yifan was stunned for a while, the young man in the picture was himself, the woman was Yun Mengyao, and he also recognized the man, it was none other than Feng Siyuan, but he was facing away from him at the time, so Feng Siyuan didn't see his true face.
Now, he finally understood why Yun Mengyao had been taking so much care of himself. Suddenly, Yun Mengyao's shadow unconsciously appeared in her mind, as if she had some kind of magical power, lingering in her heart.
Just as Ling Yifan's thoughts were flying, Kong Mochen said with a slightly solemn expression: "At the beginning, you haven't entered the sect to cultivate, and I am afraid that it will leave a bad shadow on your psychology, so I sealed your memory, you should not have broken the seal until after Yuanying, but I still underestimated the special nature of the five attribute mutant souls, and I actually broke the seal in Fan." He felt it the moment the seal of Ling Yifan's memory was broken.
Ling Yifan suddenly felt in his heart, I see! For some reason, he really wanted to meet Yun Mengyao now.
walked out of the cave mansion and walked towards Yun Mengyao's residence. After a while, when he came to the cave of Yun Mengyao of Tianchi Peak, he was quite surprised by Ling Yifan's visit to Yun Mengyao.
It's been two years, and when they see each other again, both of them have an inexplicable throbbing in their hearts, and she is still so cold, arrogant and holy. He is less youthful and more calm and introverted!
Long...
"How have you been in the past two years!" Yun Mengyao was the first to break the silence.
"It's okay, what about you!" Ling Yifan replied softly with a complicated heart.
"I'm okay, you, what's wrong?" Yun Mengyao asked suspiciously, in the three years since joining the sect, Ling Yifan took the initiative to find himself for the first time.
Ling Yifan was in a complicated mood, she wanted to say something, she wanted to tell her about what happened back then, but she didn't know how to speak at the moment, first, she couldn't win the trust of others without evidence, and second, even if she believed in herself, in the absence of evidence, not only could she not help Feng Siyuan, but it would only add to her troubles.
Thinking of this, he suddenly changed his mind and said, "It's okay, I just came out of retreat, and I'm going to choose a few secrets, and I thought that I haven't seen you for a long time, so I'll come and have a look!"
Hearing this, Yun Mengyao's fair cheeks flew into a flush.
Ling Yifan also felt a little inappropriate after speaking, but he didn't know how to explain it, he only felt that the atmosphere was a little awkward, and then he said, "Senior sister, I still have something to do, so I'll leave first!" After speaking, he left in a panic.
Looking at Ling Yifan's departing figure, a faint smile appeared on Yun Mengyao's cold face.
Bidding farewell to Yun Mengyao, Ling Yifan calmed down his complicated feelings. Thinking that he has now broken through the mortal, the original entry secret has already been cultivated to the fullest, and it is time to go to the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion to choose a few decent secrets.
Leaving Tianchi Peak, he went straight to the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion, showed the Elder Token to the deacon disciples, and went directly to the third layer where the Heavenly Rank Secret Technique was stored.
This place is much smaller than the first two floors, and in addition to a few sets of exercises, there are only a dozen kinds of secrets.
Ling Yifan came to the jade slip that recorded the secret, and this jade slip was divided into two parts, one part was a brief introduction, and the other part recorded the method of cultivation.
If you decide to choose a certain secret, you only need to imprint your Divine Consciousness on it to activate the Jade Slip and obtain the cultivation content within it. And once the jade slip is activated, the disciple in charge of the treasure pavilion will know it in a special way, and once it is chosen, it cannot be changed lightly, except for a special identity like Ling Yifan, of course.
Ling Yifan consulted casually, and suddenly stopped his gaze on a secret called "Imperial Sword Technique", this secret can be cultivated when he steps into the mortal, he needs the spirit sword to cooperate with him, he can fly in the sky, and Dacheng can breathe fifty miles, which is the secret of the lower level of the heavenly rank.
Generally, most of the disciples who have entered the mortal stage choose this "Imperial Sword Technique", first, it is more practical, it is the only secret that can fly in the air before entering the Yuan Infant Stage, and second, it is easy to cultivate.
After reaching the Yuan Infant Period, the Yuan Force in the body can be released, and the feet of the colorful clouds stand in the air.
Then, Ling Yifan stopped his divine sense on a piece of jade slip with "Heaven Breaking Sword Technique" written on it, this is a set of attack secrets, Heavenly Rank Superior. The cultivation of Dacheng is infinitely powerful, and it can even pierce the mountain range with a sword, which is really earth-shattering, and Ling Yifan is fascinated by it for a while.
"A sword piercing through the mountain range, what kind of power is this!When can I reach such strength?" Ling Yifan said to himself enviously.
Yun Mengyao's cultivation is this "Heaven Breaking Sword Technique", this sword technique has a total of eighteen styles, one sword is more powerful than the other, and the more difficult it is to cultivate in the future. Yun Mengyao had only cultivated to the ninth sword.
In the face of these dozen secrets, Ling Yifan is also difficult to decide, and he really has his own merits.
"The secret is not necessarily that the more powerful the better, the best is what suits you. Grandpa Kong is well-informed, so let's ask him for advice!" Thinking so in his heart, he sent a message to Kong Mochen.
"Hey, all the good dreams have been ruined by you, well, I'll take a look, you still choose the "Imperial Sword Technique", which is more suitable for you. If you attack, choose the "Sky-Breaking Sword Technique", and here the "Sky-Breaking Sword Technique" is still a bit powerful, okay, you can study it yourself, I won't care about you. With that, there was no sound.
Ling Yifan was speechless for a while, after getting along for a few years, Kong Mochen was sometimes very strict, and sometimes he was not serious.
According to Kong Mochen's construction, Ling Yifan chose two secrets and returned to the 'Lingxiao Cave' and began to study the secrets.
After practicing a few times, he practiced the "Heaven-Breaking Sword Technique" skillfully, and this "Heaven-Breaking Sword Technique" can now be used to the fifth sword, and if the secret method is cast, the seventh sword can be played.
After practicing the "Heaven-Breaking Sword Technique", Ling Yifan couldn't wait to take out the "Imperial Sword Technique", and this "Imperial Sword Technique" was not complicated to perform. It only takes the divine sense to control the spirit sword and release the spirit sword in a special way according to the operation formula of the "Imperial Sword Formula", so that the spirit sword forms a sword trick under his feet. And through the guò divine consciousness control zhì its flight in the sky, its speed is related to cultivation, the higher the cultivation, the faster the speed.
According to the law on the "Imperial Sword Technique", Ling Yifan practiced this "Imperial Sword Technique". With Ling Yifan's current cultivation, he can only achieve a few miles of breath, dozens of feet above the ground, which is already very happy for him.
Now Ling Yifan has a suitable defense secret, but according to Kong Mochen's construction, the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion does not have a suitable one.
"By the way, Grandpa Kong must have it there!" Ling Yifan said to Grandpa Kong Mochen with a flattering look when he thought of this, "Grandpa Kong, do you see if I still lack a defense secret, are you..."
"Hmph, I knew you were going to want it, and it was ready for you a long time ago. Kong Mochen said helplessly.
Ling Yifan only felt that his head was swollen, and a piece of information came to his mind, this was the Heavenly Rank Superior Defense Secret "Silver Bell Technique". This secret can form a round silver hood on the outside of the body, completely covering the body in it to form a defense, and it is a first-class defense secret. Unlike some other defense secrets that can only form one face, Ling Yifan was overjoyed to receive this secret, and he was skillful in drilling, and he could exert the power of this secret in three percent, but even then it was extremely strong, far from being comparable to the previous secrets.
Now that there are two attribute elements in Ling Yifan's body, which have reached seventy percent, they are not inferior to those of high-grade monks, and now Ling Yifan finally has a little proud capital.
Counting the time, it has been two years since I retreated in the 'Lingxiao Cave', and it has been a full three years since I stepped into the Ethereal Sect. Ling Yifan sighed in his heart that time had passed, but now he had the qualifications to step into this continent.
