Chapter 41 The essence of the fog bamboo, the spirit of the essence
On Spirit Whale Island, the bloody battle between the Shiyuan Yimai and the Qin Ying Island Lord was about to break out.
Qin Xuan is now an elite disciple of the Star Dao Academy, and his uncle Mu Yin is the head of the Spirit Whale Mu Clan, and he is not without power on the island.
In addition to Qin Wanhou and Qin Ying's long veins, the other three veins of the four major branches of the Qin family were unwilling to continue to be enemies with Qin Xuan, and took the opportunity to congratulate Qin Xuan on his promotion to the Taoist Academy, and the head of the three veins took the opportunity to give a lot of valuable gifts.
When Mu Yin received the gift, he also agreed not to blame the past, the condition was very simple, in the future, a bloody battle to determine who was the lord of Spirit Whale Island was about to begin, and the three families must be neutral, or fall to the same line as Shiyuan.
Qin Fu, the great housekeeper of Shiyuan in the past, was still stupid, holding a bamboo broom, Mu Yin was still in a wheelchair, Qin Ying had been avoiding in Qinjiabao, Qin Wanhou was running around, desperately giving gifts to the Giant Wood Courtyard.
Qin Yan was stripped of her Taoist credentials, and she was no longer an outer disciple recognized by the Xingchen Dao system, and these days she was busy visiting various big families on Spirit Whale Island, claiming that her father was still a high-powered island master, and her cultivation was only one step away from the Daoist Jindan, and in a few years, the Qin clan on Spirit Whale Island would have a Jindan real person.
Life, death, wealth, and nobility.
The calm before the storm is difficult to breathe, no matter whether you win or lose, the bloody case in Shiyuan that year will eventually end with another bloody case.
......
The foggy bamboo forest at the southern foot of the Whale Head Mountain for several miles around the stone park has been uncombed for decades, snakes and insects breed, more than 100 families in the vicinity have moved away one after another, and countless mountain fields have been deserted, allowing the bamboo forest to spread for seven miles.
Qin Xuan walked in the depths of the Bamboo Sea, his spiritual sense spreading, and he had been looking for those most ancient spirit species, Fog Bamboo.
He vaguely remembered that there was an ancestral cave in the middle of the fog bamboo planted three hundred years ago, which was said to be the temporary residence of the ancestors of the Qin family when they arrived on Spirit Whale Island, and they were meeting the scattered cultivator ancestor in the cave.
Time has been long, and most people have forgotten it, and Qin Xuan also read about it by chance in the "Mu Zu Sutra" that was passed down by the heads of the Mu family in the past.
He walked in the bamboo forest with the secret method of the practitioner of the star turning qigong, and along the way, the exercise was also rotating, relying on the medicinal spirit specialty to continuously absorb the essence of fog and bamboo, cool and reduce fire, calm the nerves and condense, dissolve poison and eliminate troubles, and sharpen the eyes.
The life span of fog bamboo is very short, 30 years of flowering, flowering will wither, only the spirit of the fog bamboo can live for a thousand years, 60 years of flowering, flowering does not wither.
When night fell, Qin Xuan found more than 100 of the oldest spirit species fog bamboos, and in three hundred years, they had already turned into a small bamboo sea more than four feet high, and the spirit mist was thick and white.
The Ancestral Cave is in the middle of the bamboo sea, just a small cave nine feet high, dark and damp, there is an old stone tablet covered with dark moss at the bottom of the cave, and there is a vague remnant of the old ancestor Mofa of "the intersection of the two veins, and the blessing and misfortune rely on each other".
When Qin Xuan walked here, there was also a blood-condensing sevenfold green bamboo snake demon entrenched in the cave, which was driven away by him with the horned lotus essence qi, and applied an evil charm to dispel the yin qi in the cave.
He looked at the ink left by his ancestors, and quickly recalled the description of this stone tablet in the volume of the "Wood Ancestor Sutra".
In the past, the ancestor of the loose cultivation called himself "Mu Laozu", the source of the surname of the Mu family on Lingjing Island is coming from here, the ancestor of the Mu family is just the Taoist child around the ancestor, after the ancestor left, the Taoist child recalled the past, and recorded the words and deeds of the ancestor into a book with this volume of "Mu Zu Sutra".
It is recorded in the scriptures that Mu Laozu met Qin Fang, the ancestor of the Qin family, who was hiding in the cave, and said that Qin Fang had a secret hidden in his body, so he would be plotted by others, and he had lost the opportunity to preach the golden pill, and it was also a creation in the underworld to be able to escape to this place.
Mu Laozu said that this sea area is the intersection of the two major leylines, two hundred years ago the whale head mountain was pushed out of the sea and turned into this island, the opportunity is rare, suitable for you to establish a clan here, there will be blessings and woe in the future.
Qin Xuan didn't come specifically to find the ancestor's ink treasure pen, and when he saw the stone tablet mentioned in the scriptures, he just took a closer look and appreciated it, and then crossed his knees in the cave to practice.
"Medicine Spirit" is indeed a very wonderful Heavenly Dao specialty, after a few hours, he has been faintly able to communicate with the surrounding spirit species Wuzhu, but their foundation is too shallow, after all, it is not as good as Grandma Mulian.
It was difficult for Qin Xuan to communicate with ordinary fog bamboo, as if he was separated by a moat, he shouted loudly here, but there was no feedback on the other side.
The most common kind of fog bamboo can also draw aura and derive spiritual mist, but the aura they absorb in the whole process is extremely meager, he thought, this is the reason why many clan sects will widely plant fog bamboo in the mountains, they are natural spirit gathering magic weapons.
The spirit seed fog bamboo is more capable in this regard, and it absorbs slightly more spiritual energy by itself.
There is a way for all things.
Kiritake is the best example of this truth.
The aura of heaven and earth they pull is ethereal and pure, containing a trace of mist and bamboo essence, which purifies the mind and calms the nerves, making it easier for practitioners to fall asleep.
It's a pity that the number is far from enough, and in order to improve their cultivation faster, cultivators can only use a large number of spirit crystals.
When he quietly left the stone garden in the middle of the night, Qin Xuan had a thousand spirit crystals with him, but he was not in a hurry to use these spirit crystals to cultivate, but used this opportunity to temper his newly mastered bloodline secret art, the Spirit Palm.
He didn't dare to use too much spiritual power in the snake cave last time, and now he doesn't have this kind of scruples to exert his full strength, and his spiritual power is stimulated along the palm of his hand, and the volley turns into an invisible palm shadow, almost a square circle, and a large amount of spiritual mist is ingested in one grab.
For the same kind of Heavenly Dao specialty, different ideas and usages will bring different effects, it may be the Demon Dao Method, or it may be the Xuanmen Dao System.
Qin Xuan condensed a large amount of spiritual mist into the spiritual palm, turned it into a few drops of spiritual liquid and inhaled it into his body, and there was a sense of calming and condensing when he landed, and the spiritual energy contained inside was also the most complete and pure.
Slowly, he integrated the Seven Star Palm Technique, and deduced the seven changes of the Spirit Palm, which could be used to fight the enemy in battle.
After grinding like this for a few days, his spiritual palm became more and more interesting, the limit range was the land of three zhang, and if he raised his hand to grasp it as he wanted, the spiritual mist of the three zhang square circle could be condensed into liquid by him.
After cultivating in the Ancestral Cave and the Fog Bamboo Forest for a few days, Qin Xuan slowly discovered another interesting thing, the Fog Bamboo Essence could improve his eyesight, and it could also improve the range and acuity of his spiritual sense, the bamboo fragrance was faint and quiet, cool as rain, but unfortunately it was too difficult to collect.
The reason why his horned lotus essence can be quickly formed and condensed into rice grains is mainly due to the fact that the mulberry grandma and more than 100 thousand-year-old spirit seed horned lotus trees, although there are many spirit species fog bamboo in the fog bamboo forest, but the distribution is too scattered, and there is a lack of extremely high attainment spirit seeds.
There were 100,000 fog bamboos and more than 6,000 spirit seeds in the Fog Bamboo Forest, and Qin Xuan didn't believe that there was no existence that could become a demon.
He began to search carefully along the bamboo forest, walking all the way, all the fog bamboos were sensed, and his luck was not too bad, and finally by a small stream, he found a spirit seed fog bamboo with a faint purple qi flowing throughout, but unfortunately it was only a hundred years, and the accumulation was too shallow.
