Chapter 116: On the eve of the treasure hunt
Updated: 2013-12-09
As soon as he collected the token, Chen Zhi raised his legs and entered the light mask, only to see that the attics everywhere were indeed glowing with gray light, most of them were already filled with people, only some of the pavilions that were closer to the side were still glowing with some green light.
After Chen Zhi frowned, he still flashed lightly, came to a house without any bright light, pushed the door, and walked in.
As soon as he entered inside, Chen Zhi turned his eyes and looked around.
No wonder no one wants to live here, it turns out that there is nothing except a table of eight immortals in the hall on the first floor, and this table is full of dust, and it has obviously not been cleaned for a long time.
However, Chen Zhi didn't feel anything about it, and after taking a casual look, he walked towards the stairs near the hall and went up to the second floor with a "swoop".
After coming to the second floor, Chen Zhi casually found a room to enter, but saw that the walls of the room were empty, and there was no furniture at all.
No wonder no one came to this room! Chen Zhi sneered in his heart, his sleeves flicked, and a gust of wind blew, blowing the dust on the floor and blowing out of the house.
Then he found a place, sat down, and then took out a talisman from his bosom, pinched it with both hands, and then shook it with his hand, and the talisman suddenly turned into a large white light, enveloping the whole room in it.
Chen Zhi instantly laid down an isolation magic array!
Then, he raised his hands again, and a few talismans were pasted under the white light, glowing with various spiritual lights.
After doing all this, Chen Zhi slapped it on his waist, and the two books fell into his hands at once, and they were the two books he had just bought.
Chen Zhi first put the book on his lap, and then flipped through the pages one by one.
As soon as the book was opened, what caught his eyes was an ancient text, but fortunately, Chen Zhi was studying archaeology, and he was finally able to recognize the general meaning of these words.
Among the translated words, there was a requirement that the cultivator must not start choosing the same major practice before the middle stage of qi induction.
As time passed, Chen Zhi's originally calm face gradually showed a hint of a smile, showing a lot of interest. But after another meal, Chen Zhi showed a thoughtful expression on his face.
"I see, no wonder there is no requirement to have no major exercises, although this technique is a wind attribute exercise on the surface, but in fact it can be regarded as a variant of the wind attribute exercise, no, it should be said that it is more accurate to say that there is no attribute exercise. Chen Zhi shook his head, a strange look on his face, and muttered to himself.
The exercises in this book mention a theory that Chen Zhi finds quite interesting - balance.
The so-called hidden breath is not really to converge the aura, but to emit most of the aura into the atmosphere to achieve a delicate state of balance, and to do this, the cultivator must have learned some of the basic spells of the five elements, but he cannot use one of them as a major practice to practice a particularly profound, far more than the depth of other exercises.
Because it is mentioned in the book that if the mana of various attributes is not in a delicate state of balance, then this set of exercises will lose its effect and will not be able to achieve the effect of hiding the mana on the body.
However, after truly mastering this set of exercises and understanding the essence of the exercises, it has no effect on learning other major exercises.
The mystery of this, only a few words are mentioned in the book, it seems to be related to a so-called meridian memory, but it is not understandable at Chen Zhi's current level, so after Chen Zhi looked at it a few more times, he put this concealment technique into the treasure bag.
Then, Chen Zhi took the book "Eight Veins Xuanning Gong" in his hand and slowly flipped through it.
He had already read this book a little, but at the moment, he still frowned.
Because this book is written in conjunction with the "Concealment Technique" just now, it is obviously the same kind of text, but it is a little vague, and ordinary people can't see what is written on it at all.
Even cultivators like them had to spend a lot of energy barely reading a few words, and then they had to take a break before they could continue reading.
Moreover, Chen Zhi also felt that these words were good at first, and he could probably see seven or eight words clearly at a time, but later, it seemed that he could only see five or six words clearly at a time, at first, he thought that this was his own illusion, or maybe it was caused by too much energy consumption, but after resting for a while, he found that he could only see five or six words clearly at a time, and this time, Chen Zhicai was really surprised.
At the same time, he finally understood why the swarthy young man had sold the book cheaply! Because at this decreasing rate, he would probably be so tired of reading a word that he would have to rest for a while if he continued at this decreasing rate.
So, with a hint of try-and-see mentality, Chen Zhi turned Bi Lingmu into action, and then looked at it again.
After this operation of the spiritual eye, the effect made Chen Zhi happy!
I saw that the vague words in front of me that were like scattered ink, under the effect of Bi Ling's purpose, suddenly became clear and abnormal, and Chen Zhi read a few pages in one go.
But when he turned one of the pages, and just wanted to continue reading, he suddenly felt a burst of dazzling light coming from the page, and he shook a flower in front of his eyes, and his body was crooked and fell to the ground.
In this way, Chen Zhi was shocked, but then he was overjoyed!
Obviously, this book was forbidden by someone, and the burst of white light just now was under the effect of Bi Ling's purpose, and he felt it very clearly, and it was obviously not an illusion.
In this way, if the swarthy young man said that this thing was found from the ancient ruins, it would probably not be fake.
But Chen Zhi is not in a hurry about this!
The person who wrote this book spent so much energy to seal a part of this book, obviously he had his own ideas, but Chen Zhi didn't know why, and he could only attribute the reason to not being able to see the handwriting on it clearly.
Because it is not uncommon in the cultivation world to impose prohibitions on inherited things for fear that the disciples of the sect will be greedy for the power of supernatural powers, regardless of their own cultivation. He knew very well that if he had cultivated enough. Naturally, you can get this supernatural cultivation method naturally.
So Chen Zhi put the book away, and then sat there silently, remembering the information he had just obtained from the book.
The so-called eight veins in the "Eight Veins Xuanning Gong" refer to the eight meridians in the human body: Ren Vein, Du Vein, Chong Vein, Belt Vein, Yin Pulse Vein, Yang Stilt Vein, Yin Dimensional Vein, and Yang Dimensional Vein.
Therefore, this set of exercises is divided into eight layers, and each layer corresponds to a meridian. It's just that under Chen Zhi's existing skills, he can only see clearly the cultivation methods of the two layers of exercises.
But in the future, Chen Zhi only looked at the cultivation method because of the prohibition in the book, but he didn't know whether to cultivate or not for a while.
In addition, Chen Zhi also knew that if he wanted to impact the Dan Period, then he had to choose the same exercise as his main practice no matter what, and then he could impact the realm of the Dan Period.
Therefore, even if you don't practice this set of exercises, the basic Five Elements Exercises will still have to be cultivated.
It's just that compared to the mediocrity of the ordinary Five Elements Exercises, although this set of exercises is very likely to be a set of powerful exercises, the dangers hidden in it make Chen Zhi have to be cautious!
After all, his understanding of this set of exercises is basically still in a state of partial understanding, and even many of the contents in it can't even be seen clearly!
And in this way, how to compare the advantages and disadvantages of this set of exercises and the basic Five Elements exercises has become a big problem.
"Let's take another look, if this book really has anything unique, it's not too late to cultivate!" Chen Zhi pondered for a while, then took out the book and read it quietly.
This time, he read it word by word at a speed several times slower than before, and then played it back in his mind, so as to make sure that nothing was missed.
After a while, Chen Zhi's face became colorful, sometimes very excited, sometimes frowning and contemplative, and from time to time there was a strange situation of bitterness and depression.
After about three hours, the expression on Chen Zhi's face finally calmed down.
After a few moments, he took a deep breath with a cloudy face, and opened his eyes, which flashed with a faint sense of depth.
"I see, the reason why this exercise requires cultivators to cultivate in the late stage of qi induction is because they must absorb the five elements of spiritual energy at the same time in the early stage, so the cultivation speed will be much slower. However, if you start cultivating in the early middle and early stages, you will not have enough bearing capacity of the meridians because of absorbing the five elements of spiritual energy at the same time, and the meridians will break and go mad. ”
"However, the benefits of practicing this set of exercises are also obvious, it is said that due to the absorption of the five elements of spiritual energy at the same time, no matter which attribute of the exercise is to be performed in the future, there will be no problem that the spiritual energy of that attribute is insufficient and cannot be used, so that when fighting the method in the future, there are many more types of exercises to choose from. Chen Zhi muttered as he looked like he was talking to himself.
"Forget it, anyway, I've always been inhaling the Five Elements Spiritual Qi indiscriminately, and this book is quite against my temper, so let's cultivate like this!" Chen Zhi looked back and remembered that he had entered the cultivation world by mistake, and there was no one to guide him in his cultivation at all, he had always cultivated on his own, where would he have thought that these Five Elements Spiritual Qi would also be eliminated and absorbed according to the need, and he couldn't help but shake his head and smile bitterly.
Chen Zhi stretched out his hand and pointed, and a candle in the distance was immediately lit with a "poof", and then Chen Zhi took advantage of this faint light to start practicing this exercise.
As the aura continued to flow, the flames of the lamps also kept shaking, and the figures reflected on the walls also shook. And Chen Zhi sat there, but he didn't move at all, only a trace of white gas constantly spewed out from his nostrils showed his vigorous vitality.
Time passed minute by minute, and the shadow behind Chen Zhi slowly turned into blank due to the blurred clarity, and the sky outside finally brightened. But Chen Zhi still maintained that state, and did not move at all, until the night came again, and the whole room also dimmed.
Chen Zhi remained motionless. The candle's lifespan had long since come to an end.
Two days later, a sudden fluctuation of prohibition from outside finally woke Chen Zhi up from his meditation and cultivation.
"It's strange, I've set up some forbidden things outside, so there shouldn't be anyone who casually tries to break in, right?" Chen Zhi frowned, his expression moved, he stood up, turned around and walked out.
When he came to the house, he immediately noticed that in the forbidden place in front of the house, there was a blue transmission note, which was scurrying around like a headless fly.
Seeing this scene, Chen Zhi raised his eyebrows, took out another talisman, and spit out a "Close!" at the prohibition.
Chen Zhi spread this talisman in the palm of his hand, and injected some aura into it, and this talisman suddenly turned into a flame and burned in the sky above Chen Zhi's palm, and a man's feminine voice came out, and Chen Zhi frowned when he heard it.
"Listen to the guests in the attic, the treasure hunt that will start tomorrow will be divided into five groups, please participate on time at that time, and those who do not arrive at the time will be deemed to have abstained from the competition. ”
"Oh! yes, the Treasure Hunt is about to start, and the organizers have asked everyone to get ready. It turns out that I have been cultivating for more than two days without realizing it?"
Chen Zhi raised his eyebrows and rubbed his hands, and the talisman suddenly turned into ashes and fell to the ground, but Chen Zhi himself sat down again and began to think about his tomorrow's treasure hunting meeting.
At the same time, somewhere on the ground in Mengyun Valley, more than a dozen purple-clothed people were burying something in the ground from time to time in an underground hall within a radius of several miles.
"How is it? The effect of this temporary Yin Gathering Array has weakened so much, can it still work?" an old man with a layer of green qi on his face suddenly spoke, and asked an old man with a horse face beside him.
"Rest assured, the effect of this Yin Gathering Array is not only related to the quality of the spirit jade used, but also related to the thick Yin Qi of the place where it is arranged, there are so many Yin Yin stones in this place, and the formation is arranged here, it is simply a natural power bonus, and when the time comes, it will be able to exert at least four or five percent of the effect!"
"Haha! That's right! The reason why I chose this place is because there are so many Yin and Nether Stones here, and as long as the cold qi is activated at that time, those monks who are not practicing water attribute exercises will have their exercise power greatly reduced!"
Just as the two were discussing, a man's deep voice suddenly came from behind, and when the two heard it, they hurriedly turned around: "See the leader!"
"Well, you're doing a good job, now, you'd better go and preside over the Treasure Hunting Conference, it's best to take the 'Ignition Pill' again to cover up the cold on your body. Don't let people see the flaws. "It's the old man with yellow hair.
"Yes, Chief!"
When the two of them heard this, they shook at the yellow-haired old man and withdrew from the tunnel.
After seeing the figures of these two people exiting the tunnel, a sneer inadvertently rose at the corner of the yellow-haired old man's mouth!
