Longevity begins with slaying demons and eliminating demons

Chapter 117 High Grade Spells
After a day of indulgence, Gu Xu's life is back on track.

When the sun rose, he took the pamphlet that Chu Fengge had given him, and went to the lobby of the Yishui Exorcism Department's Yamen, and once again approached his boss, Chen Jisheng.

"Did you encounter any troubles again?" Chen Jisheng put down the official document in hand, raised his head and asked, "Do you need my help?"

Gu Xu shook his head and said, "I just have a difficult choice, and I want to seek Master Chen's advice."

"Difficult to choose?"

Gu Xu put the booklet that Chu Fengge gave him on Chen Jisheng's desk, and said with a smile: "After I finish the task of the Lu family's haunted house, I can choose a high-grade spell as a reward. But the catalog says There are so many good things here that I can hardly keep track of them.”

"Gu Xu, don't you claim to 'read all the classics'?" Chen Jisheng chuckled, "Shouldn't you know this kind of thing better than me?"

"The authorities are obsessed, but the bystanders are clear," Gu Xu responded, "It is precisely because I have read many books and learned many spells that I know that everything written in this catalog is excellent. It's easier to think 'I want it all'.

"If it were you, Mr. Chen, you might be able to see more clearly what I need most right now."

"You mean that the old man is poorly educated and ignorant?" Chen Jisheng narrowed his eyes slightly, and said in a joking tone.

"Don't dare," Gu Xu shook his head and immediately denied it, "I just want to say that Mr. Chen has sharp eyes."

"You kid, you can really talk," Chen Jisheng said with a faint smile, "No wonder you like girls so much."

Gu Xu remained silent.

Seeing his appearance, Chen Jisheng suppressed his smile, took the booklet and began to read the contents carefully.

On each page of the booklet, the name and brief introduction of a high-grade spell are written.

In addition, it also records the cultivation experience of some predecessors.

After all, the biggest difference between high-grade spells and middle-grade spells is that they contain the true meaning of the Dao—only after comprehending the true meaning of the Dao, can the power of the top-grade spells be fully exerted.

This also means that when cultivating high-grade spells, monks need to agree with the founder of the spell to a certain extent.

If the three views are inconsistent, it is difficult to achieve a positive result.

For example, a soft-hearted person will never be able to practice the murderous "Sura body"; a person who is in love with flowers will never be able to practice the "forgetfulness method" that needs to cut off the mortal relationship.

Therefore, the practice experience of the predecessors is of great reference value in the process of selecting spells for future generations.

On the title page of this book, there is a line written by Luo Chuan, the head of the Exorcist Division: "The most powerful is the one that suits you."

"Do you have any preference?" Chen Jisheng asked Gu Xu while flipping through the book, "Would you like something about agility, control, or—"

"—The stronger the lethality, the better." Gu Xu stood beside him and said without hesitation.

He knew that he needed a very powerful spell right now.

Although the "ghost-killing talisman" also has a strong power.

But after all, it is only effective against ghosts and has no threat to humans.

In case he encounters humans like Tang Hui who are more afraid of ghosts than ghosts in the future, Gu Xu still doesn't have enough deterrent means at hand.

…………

"Lightning Jue", "The Curse of Overturning the Sea", "Jade Rainbow Piercing the Sun", "The Sea of ​​Fire in Purgatory", "Mount Tai Overwhelms", "The Earth Shakes the Stars", "Flying Phoenix Dance", "Chasing the Wind and Snow"...

The name of each spell in this catalog looks imposing, coupled with the miraculous description, dazzled Chen Jisheng, and even he himself was faintly moved by it.

"How about this spell?" Chen Jisheng pointed to a page in the book, and said to Gu Xu, "If I remember correctly, you just practiced a new fire-attribute skill recently, and it should be quite suitable for it of."

Gu Xu took a serious look, then said with a smile: ""Seven Styles of Burning Heaven"...Master Chen, no one in the exorcism department has practiced this spell for hundreds of years. You really have confidence in me!"

I saw that on this page of the catalog, the first message is as follows:

"This spell is powerful and easy to learn. If you miss it, you will regret it for a lifetime."

The next few messages are:
"Senior mistaken me!"

"The first message is a lie, everyone must not believe it! If you choose it, you will regret it forever!"

"As soon as I entered 'Fentian', it was as deep as the sea, and Qingsi was a passerby from then on."

"If I unfortunately die in the process of practicing "Seven Forms of Burning Heaven", please help me collect my body."

"This spell looks like a heavenly book... If anyone can understand it, I will kneel down and call him grandpa."

"Five years have passed... I haven't even learned the first form of the "Seven Forms of Burning Heaven". Is this spell really taught to people?"

"..."

It does look a bit daunting.

Chen Jisheng raised his head, looked at Gu Xu and said with a smile: "Boy named Gu, you have already made up your mind, right?

"When I turn this page, your eyes are brighter than usual - if I'm not mistaken, you're not here for advice, but for confidence, right? "

Gu Xu nodded without denying it: "Master Chen really understands me."

He paused for a moment, and then continued: "The founder of this "Seven Forms of Burning Heaven" is senior Chiyangzi—he is the master of the contemporary Great Qi State Teacher, and he once had a cultivation level close to the peak of the eighth realm. One step can soar into a fairy.

"Back then, he was almost invincible in the entire wilderness by virtue of the "Seven Styles of Burning Heaven" - in this catalog, there should not be any stronger spells than it.

"Because senior Chiyangzi is also a talisman master and is good at formations—so I guess that the reason why the "Seven Forms of Burning Heaven" is so difficult to learn is because it involves the profound meaning of talismans and formations. The spell is much more complicated.

"Coupled with the fact that it is a fire-attribute spell, I think it is tailor-made for me."

These few words of Gu Xu sounded a little arrogant, but his tone was very calm, as if he was describing a matter of course.

"Then why are you hesitating?" Chen Jisheng asked, "Based on what I know about you, you should not be the kind of person who would be intimidated by its difficulty."

Gu Xu replied lightly: "Because senior Chiyangzi was just a step away from ascending to immortality, suddenly went mad, abolished his cultivation, and became a mortal with no power to restrain a chicken. He died of illness a year later.

"So I suspect that there may be something wrong with the 'true meaning of the great way' he is looking for."
