Seeing Liu Zhendong's appearance, Zeng Shu also laughed out loud and said, "Senior brother, do you really think that Venerable only has the realm? Not to mention the rest, my control skills are at least one grade higher than that of Senior Brother, right?"

Liu Zhendong hurriedly said: "Isn't that a grade, at least two grades higher." ”

Zeng comfortably shook his head and said, "It's not that exaggerated, Senior Brother is too modest." Although the drill that day was not used, it had already pushed the junior brother to the limit, in addition to the fine control, the junior brother also carefully observed the senior brother's sword formation, and of course, the junior brother's innate qi also made a great contribution. ”

Looking at the innate qi overflowing from Zeng Shu's fingertips, Liu Zhendong observed it for a while, and said, "Good guy! Senior brother, how did you exercise this innate qi? Why are you so powerful!"

Zeng Shu retracted his innate qi and said: "Senior brother is also in the Venerable realm, and the cultivated innate qi is definitely stronger than the lay stage, and this can be thoroughly known after the senior brother breaks through to the Venerable realm, and now the senior brother is talking in detail, and it is not helpful to the senior brother at all." ”

Liu Zhendong raised his head and said, "Venerable realm? ”

Ying Zi put down the dishes in Liu Zhendong's bowl and said, "Isn't it okay to eat first! You have broken through to the realm of heaven and man, and you also have to eat!

Liu Zhendong was right when he thought about it, his essence and spirit had not been cultivated to the extreme, at least at present, the innate qi gave him the feeling that this was the case, after running the exercises every day, he could detect the increase, and he had not reached the so-called bottleneck period at all.

Zeng Shu echoed: "That's right, senior brother, let's hurry up and accumulate innate qi now, after all, you are cultivating three kinds at a time, and the time consumed is several times more than that of a normal cultivator." ”

Liu Zhendong looked at Zeng Shu and asked, "By the way, junior brother, you are younger than senior brother, how did you cultivate? You really ate the pill as a jelly bean! The speed of cultivating innate qi is too fast." ”

Zeng Shu smiled slightly, pointed to his head, and said, "Senior brother, there is a gap between people, and although the junior brother is young, he really calculates that the cultivation time is much longer than that of the senior brother. ”

Zeng Shu is not wrong about this, after all, he has been cultivating since he was a child, Liu Zhendong is a halfway monk, if he really wants to turn the cultivation time, Liu Zhendong can only be regarded as his junior brother.

Chang Yulian asked in a low voice, "Daoist Zeng, after entering the Venerable Realm, will the spirit and spirit also change?"

Zeng Shu said: "There must be changes, in fact, the lay stage and the monk stage, the essence and spirit have changed, otherwise, why spend time and effort at the risk of death, condensing the gas vortex, the spirit pearl and the purple sea god mansion?"

Liu Zhendong sighed lightly and said, "But I didn't find much difference?"

Zeng Shu said angrily: "That's because Senior Brother has not fully developed, the more you cultivate to the back, the more Senior Brother can find the huge difference between them." ”

Liu Zhendong was skeptical about this, compared to when he didn't break through, he felt that the gap was not big, but the recovery rate was much faster.

Zeng Shu coughed comfortably, and said softly: "Senior brother, your situation is a bit special, normally speaking, you can detect changes quickly, but you are cultivating all three, resulting in whether it is the gas vortex, the pearl of the spirit and the purple sea god mansion, they have not been completely stimulated to their potential, so I can only suggest that senior brother cultivate more and stimulate all the potential as soon as possible." ”

Liu Zhendong frowned and said, "What does Senior Brother mean is that my breakthrough is incomplete? In fact, I didn't activate the characteristics of the lay stage at all?"

Zeng Shu nodded and said: "Maybe this is a gain and a loss, after all, the senior brother cultivates all three, and in terms of the total amount of essence and spirit obtained to crush the layman of the same level, he has lost the essence and spirit that ordinary layman should have changed a long time ago." ”

Liu Zhendong sighed and said, "If you say this, you haven't completely lost it, right? Then I don't have anything to worry about, I'll come sooner or later anyway." ”

Seeing Liu Zhendong's heartless appearance, Zeng said comfortably: "This is just my guess, and I don't know if Senior Brother can stimulate all his potential." ”

Liu Zhendong patted Zeng Shu's shoulder and said: "That's a sure thing, it's a sure thing, the potential will only be late, and it will definitely not disappear." ”

Zeng Shu rolled his eyes and said, "I hope so." ”

Zeng Shu's worry is not unreasonable, normally speaking, after breaking through to the layman, the essence and spirit in the body will naturally undergo qualitative changes after passing through the gas vortex or the Essence Pearl and the Purple Sea Divine Mansion, which is also an important reason why the monk has to risk his life and condense it, but because Liu Zhendong appeared three things at the same time, the change of the origin was extremely slow, and there has been no great breakthrough, so Zeng Shucai was very worried, will it not produce the effect of qualitative change, which has a very great impact on Liu Zhendong, if Liu Zhendong can successfully sublimate the spirit and spirit, then the strength will be greatly improved, it is no exaggeration to say, although Yi will not be able to defeat Zeng Shu, but it can also cause great difficulties to Zeng Shu, and it is impossible to be easily beaten by Zeng Shu as before.

After Liu Zhendong finished eating, another one slipped into the backyard and began to carefully observe the traces of the land after the battle.

It is obvious that the spirit in the backyard has returned to normal, only the footprints on the ground stubbornly prove to Liu Zhendong that there was a battle here.

After squatting on the ground and observing for a while, Liu Zhendong walked under a big tree, put his hand on the big tree, closed his eyes and began to enter a deep meditation state.

Although Liu Zhendong worked hard, the effect of such a tough perception was not good, and when verifying the previous conjecture, Liu Zhendong found that the first step was wrong!

Liu Zhendong obviously could not accept such a result, and after pondering the process of argumentation for so long, he actually died in the first step like this! Such a result would obviously feel sad and sad for any person.

Liu Zhendong was constantly experimenting alone, and he was comfortable and keenly aware of the changes in the backyard, and his eyes began to look out the window, and the three girls naturally followed the gaze, and naturally saw Liu Zhendong's funny behavior.

The white moonlight shone on Liu Zhendong's face, everyone present was a monk, even if there was a problem with eyesight, it could be made up for by spirit, so Liu Zhendong's hideous expression was seen clearly, and with the technique of massaging the big tree, and shaking her body like an epilepsy patient, a big question mark appeared in the head of the three girls at the same time.

Chang Yuting muttered in a low voice: "Master, is this going crazy?"

Chang Yulian and Ying Zi both looked at Zeng Shu at the same time, obviously asking the erudite Zeng Shu to explain a thing or two.

Zeng Shu squinted his eyes and shouted, "Senior brother, don't practice outside! It's cold, come in and warm up." ”

Liu Zhendong said angrily: "Cold, do you think I'm a person who is afraid of cold?"

Ying Zi couldn't stand it, walked to the window, and shouted: "Liu Zhendong, get in! Don't be ashamed!"

Liu Zhendong said confidently: "What about my exercise, what is there to be ashamed of exercising? It's really funny!"

Ying Zi shouted: "Liu Zhendong, do you want me to take a picture of you to show you, you are funny and mentally retarded now!"

Zeng Shu also walked to the window and said: "Senior brother, exercise is not something you exercise like this, the so-called speed is not enough, you better come back first and lay the foundation, if you are not mistaken, your spirit has a lot of margin, just meditating can meditate for a long time, let's put this first." ”

Chang Yuting and the two sisters also stood in front of the window, Chang Yulian was fine, and the management of facial expressions was not bad, but Chang Yuting was a little inadequate, her face was full of smiles, and she was densely lined up with the two words 'shame'!

Seeing this, Liu Zhendong could only stop exploring, and returned to the villa in a gloomy manner, and Zeng Shu began to give Liu Zhendong some guidance.

The things discussed by the two sides have already involved the core knowledge mastered by the Venerable Realm, so the two sisters Chang Yulian can't understand it at all!

The three girls glanced at each other, got up and left the study with a tacit understanding, and said bluntly, "Excuse me!" Then Chang Yulian and Chang Yuting sent fragrant tea and pastries, so Liu Zhendong and Zeng Shushu discussed all night, until the arrival of Chang Jinde the next day, interrupted the seminar.

Zeng Shu had a certain understanding of Liu Zhendong's foundation, but he didn't expect Liu Zhendong's foundation to be so poor! Except for the first two hours of discussing the essence of the essence of the spirit and spirit, the rest of the time was Zeng Shu constantly instilling basic knowledge, including the control skills and precautions of the spirit and spirit, the mixing ratio of the spirit and the innate qi, and how the spirit should play the role of the finishing touch.

In order to help Liu Zhendong better understand the essence of spirit and spirit, Zeng Shu had no choice but to try his best to solve these basic problems, otherwise, Liu Zhendong only knew one and did not know the other, and it was easy to go astray, resulting in the end of painting a tiger and not becoming an anti-dog.

Chang Jinde brought the unique book that he inadvertently obtained this time, that is, the authentic works of the Four Great Mountain People, and after reading it comfortably and quickly, he said: "I see, as a result, you broke through to the Venerable Realm in this way, and then half-guessed and half-ignored, and made this realm of four dissimilarities, right?"

Chang Jinde nodded and said, "That's true, I just slowly groped and experimented, condensed the seventh spirit pearl, and then relied on a set of theories that I understood to create a realm. ”

Zeng Shu was silent for a while, and said: "Tyrannical Heavenly Things! You actually hold such an ancient book, but you have only cultivated the seventh Essence Pearl!, considering your old age, you have basically been stereotyped, and it is impossible to re-cultivate." ”

Liu Zhendong picked up the ancient book and looked at it, there were a few quaint big characters on the cover, Liu Zhendong didn't know any of them, after opening the book, the font inside looked at Liu Zhendong's big head, which was quite difficult to understand, and the meaning of many words, if they were connected together, Liu Zhendong didn't understand what it meant at all.

Zeng Shu looked at Liu Zhendong's expression and said, "Senior brother, you can't be ignorant of ancient texts, right?"

Liu Zhendong nodded painfully and said, "It's not a secret, Senior Brother's understanding of ancient Chinese is very average, and why is this font so weird!"

Zeng Shu said: "This is the most common ancient font, and the handwriting is quite clear. ”

Liu Zhendong shook his head and said: "The handwriting is very clear, but the question is what is this saying! Can't you just say it in the vernacular if you put together a mess of words? Why do you have to pretend to be a cultural person?"

Zeng Shu had a black line on his head and said, "Senior brother, the Four Great Mountain People were monks 500 years ago, how do you want him to record them in the vernacular?"

Liu Zhendong sighed and said: "500 years ago? my obedient, 500-year-old books, are so well preserved!"

Chang Jinde nodded in agreement, said: "I was also surprised at the time, I thought it was a modern handicraft, but the content above is extraordinary at a glance, after reading carefully, I concluded that it must not be a modern handicraft, it must be a book written by ancient monks, especially after seeing the inscription and name, it is actually the real handwriting written by the four mountain people, which makes me determined to study it carefully." ”

Liu Zhendong looked at it and said: "Good guy, there is no difference between the handwriting before and after, are these four people quadruplets? Something is wrong, even if it is a quadruplets writing font, there will be a difference, right? Could it be that this is a standard writing font, just like our modern printing style?"

Zeng Shu said angrily: "Senior brother, the four mountain people don't mean that there are four people! This is the code name of a monk!"

Liu Zhendong said in a bit of a daze: "What kind of mess? Codename? Is it still popular for ancient monks to take nicknames?"

Zeng Shu said angrily: "Senior brother, are you really stupid or fake stupid, in ancient times, in addition to the surname, there was also a name, and there was also a name taken by your parents, when you become an adult, you can take your own words, of course, there are also nicknames taken by outsiders, or your own numbers, such as a certain monk of the human family, called Qinglian monk!"

Liu Zhendong slapped his thigh and said: "I understand! It's the same as that person, the surname is Mi, the name is Qu, the name is Ping, and the word is Yuan!"

Zeng Shu said: "Yes, yes, that's pretty much what it means, in short, these four mountain people are very famous, and they boast of having the power of half immortals, unless they are true immortals in the realm of heaven and man, the rest of them are not his opponents." ”

Liu Zhendong put down the book and said, "Senior brother also read the book just now, can you briefly introduce to the senior brother, the general content of the book record, the main thing is that the senior brother also wants to test you, to see if you are stupid." ”

Zeng Shu secretly thought in his heart, obviously you are stupid, senior brother! I can't recognize all the words, and I can't understand the meaning, if you really drop a secret book in front of you, I'm afraid you will also be on the table!

Zeng Shu had no choice but to open the book and interpret it word by word, Chang Jinde stood outside the door, the so-called law does not pass on six ears, Chang Jinde is to avoid leisure, and the other is to keep it secret, after all, this is the true work of the four mountain people!

Zeng was comfortable translating very quickly, and the first time he didn't mix his own opinions, he simply reread the content recorded in the book.

In fact, a lot of space in this ancient book is talking about some basic knowledge, only in the middle of the paragraph, a brief overview of the interpretation of the spirit of the next four mountain people, and at the end is to introduce his understanding and application skills of the environment.

After listening to this, Liu Zhendong found that these four mountain people were nothing more than that! The content expounded was not very powerful, and the only thing that was more important might be the understanding and application of the 'realm'.

But Zeng Shu didn't see it that way, and when he took Liu Zhendong to read the ancient books for the second time, he gave some basic insights, especially for the basic content, Zeng Shu admired the four mountain people very much, thinking that this was a powerful monk, especially a few of them, Zeng Shu nodded frequently in approval.

Seeing Zeng Shu's face of admiration, Liu Zhendong was a little puzzled, aren't these things very basic? Last night, if Liu Zhendong remembered correctly, many things were duplicated with the contents of ancient books.

The reason why Zeng Shu admired it was that this was something that was recorded 500 years ago! Although from the current point of view, these contents are somewhat basic, but many of them are basic contents, and the opinions of the four great mountain people belonged to the well-deserved pioneers 500 years ago, but it is a pity that such good content, for unknown reasons, has not been passed down well, otherwise, the entire cultivation world will progress for several decades, and maybe more new theories will appear.

Liu Zhendong didn't take this into account at all, Zeng Shu was well-read, and had read many books and notes left by Venerable Realm monks, so naturally when he was reading the books, he would combine them with the works of the Four Great Shanren eras.

Zeng Shu pointed to the essence content on the middle section and said: "Although the junior brother does not cultivate the essence, but the opinions of the four mountain people on the essence, the senior brother can have a fine taste, Chang Jinde Chang Uncle belongs to the kind that is a pity, it is estimated that it is also related to loose cultivation, and he does not pay much attention to the middle length of the most essence in the book, but focuses on the least important end, but unfortunately, if he had realized that the middle section is the most important place earlier, maybe he would not have gone astray." ”

Liu Zhendong touched his chin, looked carefully at the words on the book, and said: "But how do I see it, these contents are also very ordinary? Why do you want to say that this is the most important point in the book?"

Zeng Shu took a deep breath and said, "I can't blame you for this, after all, Senior Brother, like Uncle Chang, has a very poor foundation, not enough knowledge reserves, and is not yet at the Venerable level, so naturally he can't understand the exercises hidden under this text." ”

Liu Zhendong squinted his eyes and said, "Senior brother, you said this is a set of exercises? What kind of ghost exercises is this? Why can't I see it at all?"

Zeng Shu sighed and said: "Senior brother is really stupid, this is a set of exercises, Uncle Chang probably also pondered a little, so he was able to cultivate the seventh pearl of spirit, but unfortunately, I didn't think it through, this is a very powerful set of exercises, senior brother, come over with your ears, I will repeat it to you." ”

Liu Zhendong hurriedly clung to his ear, and Zeng Shu began to whisper to Liu Zhendong about the hidden exercises and running formulas of words.

After Liu Zhendong heard it silently, he said, "Wouldn't this be too simple?"

Zeng Shu just told very little content, Liu Zhendong didn't believe in such a simple thing, it was a very powerful set of exercises, and he felt that Zeng Shu was lying to him.

Zeng Shu said angrily: "The mountain is not high, there are immortals, the water is not deep, and the dragon is spiritual." The quality of the exercises does not lie in how cumbersome the exercises are, if you don't believe it, you can run the experiment immediately. ”

Liu Zhendong naturally didn't believe it, and immediately closed his eyes and began to meditate, it was only a small week, that is, 4 hours, after Liu Zhendong opened his eyes, his face was frightened, and the effect was really good! It was completely beyond his expectations! Compared with the "Nothing Done" exercises, the efficiency of this set of exercises was several times higher, and Liu Zhendong felt the change in the power of the source, that is, the difference between the spirit and spirit between lay monks and monks that Zeng Shu had been emphasizing.

Zeng Shu squinted his eyes and said, "How about it, this time Senior Brother should believe it, right?"

Liu Zhendong looked at his hands and said: "It's really strange, it feels very average when it is running, and I don't notice any difference, but after the operation is completed, the effect is surprisingly good!"

Zeng Shu took a sip of tea and said, "Senior brother, this is called plain and bland! That's why I say that this exercise is advanced, that's why." ”

Liu Zhendong smiled and said, "It's still a great junior brother, and you can see the extraordinary at a glance!"

Zeng Shu rolled his eyes, and thought to himself, this is not because you are stupid, senior brother! I mistakenly put all the gold in brass, fortunately I am here, otherwise, this peerless secret book, I don't know what you will spoil it into.

When the four mountain people wrote this ancient book, they may have forgotten an important precondition in the expression because they did not have apprentices, not everyone is him, so some of the content he wrote, especially the text about the essence exercises in the middle of the book, is very difficult to understand, on the surface it looks mediocre, and even some like nonsense, Chang Jinde also gave up the content in the middle for the first time, and focused on the first half and the end, until the book was almost studied, Chang Jinde was patient, studied the content of the middle section, and then was studied out of some connotations, and achieved his seventh spirit pearlIt's a pity that I don't understand it thoroughly, otherwise, it would not just condense the seventh spirit pearl, but directly condense the whole 9 spirit pearls, and become the Venerable, which is also the most regrettable place for Zeng Shu, thinking that Chang Jinde is an important reason for the tyranny of heaven and things!
