Longevity begins with slaying demons and eliminating demons

Chapter 132 The Second Spell of Jinghong Pen (Please subscribe for the sixth update!)
How to construct a new spell with "Jinghong Pen"?
Gu Xu had pondered this question for a long time.

As a time traveler, he has many excellent poems from previous lives in his mind.

He originally thought that as long as he casually copied a line of poetry with the "Jinghong Pen", the corresponding image would immediately manifest, producing extremely terrifying power.

Just like the method of "Wan Lai Kong Ji" he performed in Lu's old house back then.

As long as you write "birds fly away in thousands of mountains, traces of people in thousands of paths disappear", you can create a white snow scene and erase all extraordinary elements on the opponent - such as the monk's true energy, the special attributes of the magic weapon, the ghost's Mana and more.

But after that, he copied a lot of poems from his previous life, but unfortunately, the "Jinghong Brush" didn't respond at all, as if it had turned into an ordinary writing brush.

until today.

When he saw Shi Xiaohan dressed in black and walked into "Mingzhi Hall" without hesitation, this song "Sapphire Case" written by He Zhu, a poet of the Song Dynasty, involuntarily appeared in his mind.

In this poem, the beautiful woman drifts away in the late spring, "walking gently on the waves, dusty socks", only spring knows her whereabouts.

Of course, the reason why Gu Xu thought of this poem was not because of the sorrow of "longing for a beautiful woman but not having the chance to meet her".

He just felt that the feeling of loss in the words was very similar to his own state of mind at this time.

Like the continuous spring rain.

Like catkins fluttering in the wind in Yishui County.

So, at this moment, he vaguely understood the essentials of using the "Jinghong Pen"——

It lies in the true feelings, and lies in the heart.

Because of this, simple and rough copied words have no effect.

It's no wonder that many years ago, the ancestors of the Lu family were able to achieve enlightenment purely through poetry and painting without practicing incantations or martial arts, and finally ascended to immortality.

It turns out that in his eyes, the process of writing poems and painting is a process of comprehending the true meaning of the Tao and asking his own voice.

"Jinghong Brush" was once the natal object of the ancestors of the Lu family.

Naturally, it also inherited the way of enlightenment of the ancestors of the Lu family.

So, in this harsh winter, Gu Xu sat by the window of Zangshuge, looked at the empty and lonely courtyard outside the window, and used the "Jinghong Brush" to construct its second spell——

"The city is full of wind and wind".

…………

The cold wind howled, and the snow fell.

Time flies.

Before he knew it, more than ten days had passed since Shi Xiaohan entered the "Mingzhi Hall" retreat.

It was almost time for Gu Xu to leave Yishui County and go to the Laoshan ruins, but she didn't come out from there either.

But Gu Xu was still the same as usual.

Eat, practice, and do tasks.

The life of an exorcist practitioner is always like this, simple and boring.

It wasn't until the [-]th day of the twelfth lunar month when the "Land of Discourse on Dao" opened again that new waves appeared in his life.

Gu Xu sat on the bamboo mat at home, holding the "Shenji Token" in his hand, and once again boarded the arena floating in the boundless darkness.

This time, the opponent he matched was called "Kun".

Of course Gu Xu remembered that "Kun" was Chu Fengge's code name.

Especially as soon as this opponent stepped onto the ring, he began to raise his head and chest and declare his title, which made Gu Xu [-]% sure of his identity.

I saw Chu Fengge with his hands behind his back, reciting impassionedly: "I have a sword that kills the enemy, and the jade edge is like a white rainbow. Talking and laughing will destroy thousands of troops, and the cold light will break through the sky."

"Isn't Chu Fengge a monk of the fourth realm? If I remember correctly, the 'Land of Discourse' is a duel between monks of the same realm, but why did I match him?" Gu Xu felt this in his heart. A little confused, "Could it be that this 'Lun Dao Realm' can also open small fried fish?"

Chu Fengge on the opposite side quickly told him the answer: "Currently, there are too few monks in the fourth realm in the 'Shenji Camp'. This second-level cultivator will fight."

Hearing his words, Gu Xu nodded, thinking that such an arrangement is quite good.

After all, the original intention of the sages of the Daqi Dynasty to create the "Land of Discourse on Dao" was to help the young monks in the "Shenji Battalion" reserve to exercise their actual combat capabilities.

Ever since defeating "Kirin", "Bifang" and "Qingluan" in succession, Gu Xu felt that there should be no monks of the same realm who could fight against him in this "land of discussing the Tao".

Continuing to bully the weak obviously does not help to improve one's fighting ability.

It's better to compete with a high-level monk like Chu Fengge in advance.

"That's such a coincidence, Master Chu," after hearing what Chu Fengge said, Gu Xu smiled and said in a joking tone, "Also, Master Chu, in my personal opinion, the name of your poem this time , the level seems to be a bit inferior to last time!"

Before attacking your opponent, find a way to distract him.

This is the tactic that Gu Xu learned from "Kirin".

The sweet and clear "good brother" in the mouth of "Kirin" is as lethal as a mental attack spell to ordinary people.

For Chu Fengge, one of the most lethal words is undoubtedly to complain about his latest poem title.

Sure enough, as soon as Gu Xu finished speaking, Chu Fengge immediately raised his voice and said angrily: "That's not because those subordinates of this official are too useless! If they have you... no, I have half the literary talents of Miss Lu's family. And why worry about not having a good title?"

"Then Master Chu, do you need to send you a message?" Gu Xu said with a smile, "For example, 'Qiu Shuang cuts the jade sword, the setting sun and the pearl robe'—"

"Shut up! Stop talking!" Chu Fengge immediately interrupted him sharply.

If Gu Xu was allowed to continue like this, Chu Fengge was afraid that he would not be able to withstand the temptation, so he lowered his dignity and asked Gu Xu to help him write a new title.

He, Chu Fengge, wanted to become the number one man in the world, how could he do such a depraved thing?
This time, Gu Xu planned to use the technique of talisman to fight.

Although he couldn't bring the "Jinghong Brush" into the "Land of Discussion", he planned to try to use the technique of talisman to simulate the meaning of "full of wind and catkins in the city".

He already understood at this time that the "Jinghong Brush" is not only a weapon for fighting, but also a magic weapon that can help him understand the Dao and question his heart.

Although he is only a second-level cultivator now, with the "Jinghong Brush", he can already vaguely feel a breath of "Tao".

Whether it is "Wan Lai Kong Jing" or "City full of wind and wind", they are all the concrete products of "Tao".

So Gu Xu wanted to do a small experiment.

He wanted to recreate this breath of "Tao" without getting rid of the "Jinghong Brush".

This may sound like overconfidence.

However, Gu Xu knew that his future goal was to become a saint.

"Tao" is an important hurdle that cannot be avoided on the road to holiness.
