Chapter 23: The Reason for Apprenticeship

Just when the Soul Devouring Ancestor wanted to open his mouth to ask Shen Lang to go down, he only heard a vicissitudes of life voice outside the door: "This disciple old man wants it." ”

This is infuriating the Soul Eater Ancestor, no one came to rob it for a long time, the Ancestor was just about to open your mouth, you came to rob someone, and when you were about to speak, the Soul Eater Ancestor saw the person who came in, and immediately closed his mouth obediently.

A middle-aged man in Tsing Yi appeared in the hall, although the Tsing Yi people looked average, but they had a shocking temperament, with an inexplicable rhyme between their gestures, and a big yellow gourd hanging from their waists.

This person is the Wine Sword Ancestor who is in charge of punishment in the Netherworld Sect, and except for a few big men in the sect, he has the highest power and strength.

Even the young Son on the throne could only step forward to greet him, and said politely, "Ancestor, why are you here?"

The Wine Sword Ancestor replied lightly: "Since it is to select disciples, why can't the old man come?"

I saw a middle-aged man walking up to Shen Lang, staring at Shen Lang for a long time, with a look of remembrance on his face, and touched Shen Lang's head: "Yes, it's exactly what the old man wants, let's go, little ghost." ”

When the young saint son saw the middle-aged man speak, he naturally congratulated: "Since the ancestor likes it, this disciple will return to the ancestor." Shen Lang, don't meet the Wine Sword Ancestor yet. ”

Shen Lang saluted respectfully and said, "Disciple Shen Lang, meet the ancestor." ”

The Wine Sword Ancestor nodded, mumbled, and walked out of the hall with Shen Lang, the Soul Devouring Ancestor on the side really didn't know what it was like to feel, although he was not able to accept Shen Lang as a disciple, but he still had to build a good relationship in the future, I didn't expect this kid to be able to get the favor of this ancestor, and his future status was still above himself.

The Wine Sword Ancestor carried Shen Lang and flew directly to the residence of the Wine Sword Ancestor, Shen Lang suddenly felt that the whole person was like a streamer, flying rapidly in the air, I don't know how much faster than the previous Streamer Shuttle, this is still the Wine Sword Ancestor using mana to cover Shen Lang, otherwise just the wind and Shen Lang in this rapid speed will not be able to stand it.

Soon the Wine Sword Ancestor fell on top of a mountain peak, and the whole mountain peak was surrounded by clouds and mist, and the Wine Sword Ancestor fell next to a pool where hundreds of lotus flowers were planted, and the fish in the pool also appeared and disappeared from time to time.

The ancestor took Shen Lang to a cave. It is said that it is a cave, it is just the outside, the space inside is extremely large, and the light is sufficient, everything is fully arranged, and the Wine Sword Ancestor sat on the green jade lotus platform in the middle after putting Shen Lang down.

After looking at Shen Lang for a long time, the Wine Sword Ancestor asked Shen Lang in a soft tone: "Little ghost, do you know why the old man took you as an apprentice?"

Shen Lang shook his head inexplicably, for this kind of character who sees the beginning and the end of the dragon, Shen Lang still has to be careful, this kind of master's mind is the most difficult to guess.

The deafening voice of the Wine Sword Ancestor resounded in the cave: "That's because you are the only one in so many batches of disciples whose swordsmanship is okay. ”

Hearing the ancestor say this, Shen Lang naturally didn't dare to refute, for these masters, they all looked up to themselves when they said that they were improvised, especially the person named the Wine Sword Ancestor, who was also a master of using a sword.

The Wine Sword Ancestor continued: "In addition, the sword you learned is still the Four Elephants Holy Spirit Sword Technique. ”

Shen Lang guessed, could it be that this set of swordsmanship was created by the Wine Sword Ancestor, but according to the swordsmanship and the style of the Wine Sword Ancestor, it shouldn't be like it.

The Wine Sword Ancestor fell into the memory, his expression was a little happy, and then he became very gloomy and sad, and said in a somewhat low tone: "This set of swordsmanship was created by Qin Feng, the first disciple of the old man, and he was also very talented back then, and he was very popular with the old man. ”

sighed, as if he was nostalgic for his former disciple, and continued: "It's a pity that he died in a secret realm when he went out with his friends. ”

"Later, the teacher found out the clues, your senior brother was killed by someone, and the teacher killed that person's sect, but unfortunately he was besieged by several people, saying that the old man bullied the small. After all these years, the old man has never found a suitable disciple, but fortunately, now that the heavens are favoring, the old man has finally discovered you, and you are the hope of the old man!"

Shen Lang suddenly felt that his head was big, and he didn't have to provoke an enemy first, and after so many years, the strength of the enemy was not weak.

The Wine Sword Ancestor knew very well what Shen Lang was thinking, and said directly: "The old man will not force you to avenge Qin Feng, since you have accepted you, then you are also the old man's disciple." The old man has only accepted two disciples in his life, one is Qin Feng, and the other is you, if the old man can't break through by then, the old man's qiē is all yours. I just hope that if you succeed in cultivation, you can use this set of swordsmanship to avenge your senior brother who has never met. ”

Shen Lang looked at the Wine Sword Ancestor who was already a little pleading in front of him, at this moment he was not the first elder on the throne, but just an old man who pinned his hopes.

Shen Lang nodded, knelt down and said, "Disciple Shen Lang, meet the master, when the disciple is successful in cultivation in the future, he will definitely help Senior Brother Qin Feng defeat the opponent, so that the Four Elephants Holy Spirit Sword Technique will be known to the world." ”

Shen Lang's promise made the ancestor very happy, he stood up and laughed, shaking the entire cave a little, tears left in the corners of his eyes, but Shen Lang couldn't stand such a strong momentum, and hurriedly shouted: "Master, stop, the disciple can't bear it." ”

Hearing Shen Lang's plea for mercy, the Wine Sword Ancestor realized that he had lost his temper and quickly stopped.

Touching Shen Lang's head, the Wine Sword Ancestor said: "It's because the teacher is too excited, there hasn't been a satisfied disciple for so many years, when I think of your senior brother's matter, I can't help but feel a little emotional for a while." ”

After the Wine Sword Ancestor talked to Shen Lang again, he took Shen Lang to his residence.

The layout inside is also readily available, and there are a lot of jade slips placed in it, and the wine sword ancestor said with some sadness: "This quiet room used to belong to your senior brother, and those jade slips were also collected by your senior brother during his lifetime, and these will be yours in the future." ”

Shen Lang didn't care about this, the Wine Sword Ancestor was able to let himself live in this quiet room, and he already regarded Shen Lang as his disciple in his heart.

After settling Shen Lang, the Wine Sword Ancestor left, just telling Shen Lang to get up early tomorrow, and the Wine Sword Ancestor would preach to Shen Lang.

Stroking the items displayed in the room, there was no trace of dust on them, it seemed that the Wine Sword Ancestor often came to this room, Shen Lang casually picked up a jade slip and looked at it.

Inside are some of Qin Feng's cultivation experiences recorded during his lifetime, and each step is explained in great detail, it seems that Qin Feng is also a person with intentions.

After looking at it casually, Shen Lang meditated and rested, today he can worship under the Ancestor of the Wine Sword, and his status has ascended to the sky in one step, Shen Lang can see that this master has a very high status in the door, and even the high Holy Son has to be respectful to his master.

However, these things are just foreign objects after all, and if you encounter a real enemy, people will not ask you who your master is, but only see whether you are strong or not.

Shen Lang took out the Tongmai Pill rewarded by the sect, which was a pill specially developed for the Tongmai period in the sect, after taking it, it could enhance the strength of his mana and open up the meridians more easily.

After taking one pill, Shen Lang began to cultivate, after all, only one meridian has been opened now, and there are still thirty-five unopened meridians waiting for Shen Lang!

As far as Shen Lang knew, only after breaking through the pulse period, he could practice the spell of flying, or the flying of the sword, and he soared in the sky twice in a row today, and Shen Lang enjoyed this feeling very much.

After all, in the previous life, everyone had a dream of flying, but this dream was replaced by a machine, not that people themselves could fly like birds.

Only after breaking through as soon as possible can you learn the spell of flying, and then you can really fly into the sky on your own.

The overnight cultivation passed quickly, and after Shen Lang took the Tongmai Pill, the progress of his cultivation was indeed greatly accelerated, and overnight, he broke through half of the second meridian, and he was able to open the second meridian in one more day.

Early in the morning, Shen Lang got up early, and today the Wine Sword Ancestor personally preached for himself, saying that he couldn't be late for anything, this was the benefit of the true disciple, and he became the mantle disciple of the elder.

The strength of each elder was not comparable to that of the previous junior mentors such as Yang Ming, this was a true cultivation master, and he knew every detail of the breakthrough well.

Such a character cultivates his disciples one-on-one, and he is naturally very attentive, and he can answer questions for himself anytime and anywhere, which is the real master-apprentice inheritance.

Shen Lang felt that the Wine Sword Ancestor really cared for his disciples, and for the sake of his senior brother who had never met before, he went to other sects to make trouble, and was besieged by many monks of the same level. Shen Lang could imagine that the battle situation at that time must have been very tragic, but the master did not give up.

Early in the morning, in the mountains, the dew fell on the lotus leaves, forming a grain of water droplets, cicadas chirping frogs, so uncomfortable environment.

The Wine Sword Ancestor was already sitting on the edge of the pool at this time, and Shen Lang hurriedly stepped forward to salute: "Disciple to meet Master." ”

The Wine Sword Ancestor smiled kindly, motioned for Shen Lang to sit down, and said by himself: "Lang'er, the foundation of your previous cultivation has been very solid, and now your cultivation is no longer very useful to you, this is a law decision prepared for you by the teacher, and it is very suitable for your cultivation." ”

After that, he handed Shen Lang a jade slip, which was different from the ordinary jade slip, the shape of this jade slip was more exquisite and complex, and Shen Lang started after holding it

After a while, Shen Lang finished reading, and the Wine Sword Ancestor continued: "As a teacher, you not only have a good understanding of kendo, but also have a lot of spells, and your mana is much stronger than that of disciples of the same level, and your physical body is also very strong, which is an advantage in talent, so you have to improve comprehensively, this is just right for you to cultivate, make your mana more refined, more powerful when casting spells, and at the same time strengthen your physical body." ”

Shen Lang nodded, just now when he was reading, he felt that this non-martial arts method was far stronger than before.

"Of course, this is also what you can cultivate now, and when you become a holy son, you will have the opportunity to contact the treasure book of the town sect in the sect-, this is the real treasure book of divine skills, and the top three divine skills can also be ranked among the exercises in the whole world. The Wine Sword Ancestor continued.

I didn't expect that there was such a miracle in the sect, Shen Lang was really eye-opening, thinking that if he was lucky enough to become a holy son in the future, he would be able to learn it at that time, and now it is better to lay a good foundation first.

"Back then, your senior brother's talent was also one of the best in the door, and he created it himself before the foundation building period, although his cultivation was not high at that time, but this set of swordsmanship was not so simple. ”

Listening to his master introduce his own swordsmanship, Shen Lang was also full of curiosity, and he was even more curious about his senior brother who had never met.

The Wine Sword Ancestor continued to speak: "This set of swordsmanship is your senior brother Qin Feng, according to the changes of Zhou Tian's astrological signs, combined with the four-elephant formation, after three years of enlightenment, this is the swordsmanship that came out of zào, Lang'er, what you are using now is just the skin, you must study this set of swordsmanship more, and in the future, you will also create your own swordsmanship." ”

For the master's explanation and encouragement, Shen Lang naturally had a deeper understanding in his heart, this set of swordsmanship was really as he thought, it was not just as simple as it appeared.

Moreover, the Wine Sword Ancestor said in his words that this set of swordsmanship was made by combining Zhou Tian's changes and formation creation, which shows that the power contained in it is really not simple.

Shen Lang is naturally looking forward to encouraging himself to create his own swordsmanship in his master's words, but with his current cultivation and experience, it is still a little impossible to create his own swordsmanship.

Putting away those fantasies, Shen Lang began to listen to the wine sword ancestor preaching, this ancestor not only has a high status, but also ranks among the best in the sect for cultivation, for these primary cultivations, he explained very thoroughly, and today's main explanation is this set.

The old ancestor told the origin of this set of swordsmanship, and the next thing to tell Shen Lang is the change of this set of swordsmanship.

Although this set of swordsmanship was created by Qin Feng, many of the key points in it were also indispensable to the guidance of the Wine Sword Ancestor.

Just listening to a sword word in the name of the ancestor of the wine sword, he can naturally think of his profound attainments in swordsmanship, otherwise he would not have taught a genius disciple who created his own swordsmanship.

The Wine Sword Ancestor began to guide Shen Lang from the most basic four-style sword moves, and although he was very satisfied with Shen Lang's self-taught, he still sternly pointed out some of the roughness of the sword in it.

"Lang'er, you must know that swordsmanship is different from spells, and the power of spells lies in the depth of comprehension of spells, and swordsmanship is different, do you know what a sword is?" Listening to the question raised by the master, Shen Lang also fell into thought.

The Wine Sword Ancestor was not in a hurry to get Shen Lang's answer, but took the yellow gourd from his waist and drank it slowly.

A fresh aroma of wine emanated from it, and I thought that this was the origin of the word wine in the name of the ancestor.

Shen Lang combined his own understanding and some experiences in his previous life, and said seriously: "The disciple believes that the sword is a sword, an extension of the human body, just like the limbs of the human body, it is just a weapon used by people, but it is also the life of every swordsman, and there is nothing else besides the sword. ”

The Wine Sword Ancestor was not satisfied with this answer, but took another sip of the wine in the gourd, looked at Shen Lang and smiled slightly, with appreciation and remembrance in his eyes.

"You little slippery head, your answer can be right or wrong. Listening to Master's evaluation, Shen Lang naturally understood that each Kendo Grandmaster had a different opinion from himself, so he wanted to hear Master's answer.

"As you said, the sword is a weapon or magic weapon in the hands of a cultivator, these are the sword itself, we are not those crazy people who specialize in the way of the sword, so in addition to the sword, we can also use spells, magic weapons or other things. Patting Shen Lang's head, the Wine Sword Ancestor continued to explain.

"The so-called swordsmanship and spell also have different paths to the same end, there are different classifications in swordsmanship, some swordsmanship attaches importance to sword moves, some pay attention to sword intent, and some are sword momentum, different swordsmanship has different emphasis, so Lang'er, your swordsmanship is still far behind!"

Listening to his master's evaluation, Shen Lang also knew that he really had a lot of deficiencies to learn.

The Wine Sword Ancestor did not hesitate, and continued to explain this set of swordsmanship to Shen Lang, and Shen Lang was also like a sponge quickly absorbing the knowledge explained by the Wine Sword Ancestor.
