Longevity begins with slaying demons and eliminating demons

Chapter 275 Improving Cultivation Techniques
"Ye Huo Sutra..." Gu Xu thought silently.

When he imagined the notch on the stone wall as a picture, as the lines of burning flames, the scene of hell and karma naturally appeared in his mind.

Subsequently, a large amount of information flooded into his mind, forming a complex and profound scripture.

"Yehuo Jing" is an unfamiliar name to him, and it has never appeared in the Taoism classics he has read.

Gu Xu speculates that this may be because after the "Longevity Sect" was banned by the Daqi Dynasty as a demon religion, all its Taoism and martial arts secret books were destroyed and must not be passed on to the world.

This "Yehuo Sutra" hidden in the stone wall is most likely the exercise practiced by Changshoujiao back then.

"If I remember correctly, Changshoujiao had a saint-level powerhouse many years ago," Gu Xu thought to himself, "This means that this "Yehuo Sutra" should contain the true meaning of Dao Top grade exercises.

"It and the "Red Flame Truth" are both fire-attribute exercises, but its flames are even hotter. Not only can it purify yin qi and temper the true essence like the "Red Flame Truth", but it can also be tempered through thousands of tempers. Strengthening the soul. If I practice this exercise, the power of the "eclipse" and "star wall" and other soul attack techniques I have mastered will be greatly improved.

"Especially after I entered the fifth realm and was able to leave the body, its effects will be more obvious.

"Oh, it's a pity that it's a top-grade exercise..."

Because Gu Xu aspires to become a saint, he must walk out of his own "Tao".The high-grade exercises that are regarded as treasures by other monks are to him a shackle that hinders his progress.

Others, especially those monks who were born as commoners and lacked cultivation resources since childhood, when they read this "Yehuo Sutra", they may be as elated as if they discovered a treasure worth thousands of gold.

But there was no disturbance in Gu Xu's heart.

After all, he can't use top-grade exercises.

However, after he read the scriptures of "Yehuo Sutra" several times in his mind, he suddenly discovered a serious problem——

The division of practice realm in "Yehuo Sutra" seems to be different from other exercises in the Great Wilderness.

In the orthodox practice system of Dahuang, the nine realms of practice are called "Ghost Gate Pass", "Huangquan Road", "Naihe Bridge", "Wangxiang Terrace", "Meng Po Pavilion", "Fengdu Gate", "Yan Luo Palace", "Jiu You "Prison" and "Climbing to the Immortal Way".

However, in the "Yehuo Sutra", the nine realms of practice are called "Peeling Clothes Pavilion", "Black Rope Prison", "Peeling Blood Pond", "Punishing Prison", "Void Death City", and "Hot Annoyance Prison". , "Annoyed Pot Hell", "Avici Hell", and "Nirvana".

The former is to go to hell first and then to heaven.

The latter has been roasted and baptized by karmic fire in hell, and after washing away its own dirt and sins, it will achieve the detachment of the soul and the immortality of the body.

And according to the description in the scriptures, in order to reach a higher level, apart from penance and enlightenment, you also need something called "mind force".

Gu Xu studied for a while, and found that the meaning of "mind force" is actually quite similar to "incense" or "faith", which refers to trust and admiration from the heart from others.

"It's no wonder that the 'Longevity Cult' was wiped out by the Daqi court," Gu Xu thoughtfully, "In the Daqi Dynasty, which believed in Taishang Haotian and Emperor Ziwei, it is indeed possible to practice this method of becoming a god by oneself." It is said to be contemptuous of God and treasonous."

It is naturally impossible for Gu Xu to practice such a deviant high-grade exercise, after all, he is still receiving the imperial salary.

It's just that he is a little greedy for the flames in the "Yehuo Sutra" that can temper the soul.

Ever since he had a fierce contest with the mysterious Gu master who was hiding in the dark when he bought the courtyard house in Zhengpingfang, he has fully realized the importance of the power of the soul.

After all, he has been targeted by the behind-the-scenes organization now, and it is very likely that he will fight again with that Gu master and his accomplices with their own unique skills in the future.

Only by making one's soul power stronger can one have a better chance of winning in the next fight.

In addition, the names of realms in the "Ye Huo Sutra" full of the atmosphere of the underworld, as well as the picture of the karmic fire in hell, made Gu Xu involuntarily think of the terrifying phantom he saw in front of Chiyangzi's grave at the end of last month.

He always felt that this "Ye Huo Sutra" might hide more secrets.

"How about... I will try to analyze the true meaning of the Dao in the "Yehuo Sutra", take its essence and discard the dross-keep its effect of strengthening the soul, remove its content that is against God and banned by the court, and then Use it to improve my "Red Flame Truth"?"

Theoretically speaking, "Red Flame True Jue" is considered to be of relatively high quality among middle-grade exercises.It can be said that it is more than enough to use it to cultivate to the sixth level.

But if there is an opportunity to improve the quality of his exercises and improve his practice efficiency, Gu Xu will certainly not refuse.

Perhaps in Gu Xu's eyes, "improving exercises" is just like "improving talismans", it is a trivial matter that is not worth mentioning.

But if outside monks knew what he was thinking at this time, they would definitely be shocked.

Because the kung fu determines the trajectory of the true energy in the monk's meridians, and it is the foundation for the monk to perform all spells and martial arts.

It's like an "operating system" for monks.As long as there is a slight problem, it may lead to the disorder of the true essence, the inability to use various Taoism methods normally, or even go crazy and die suddenly.

Under normal circumstances, at least a high-level monk who has practiced for decades and has a lot of experience can have the ability and confidence to improve or create exercises.

Gu Xu has been practicing for less than a year, and he dares to tamper with the exercises, which can be said to be audacious.

He didn't hesitate for long.

After making this decision, he immediately took out a pen and paper from "Xianyunju", first drew a diagram of the movement trajectory of the true essence of "Red Flame True Art", and then referred to the scriptures of "Yehuo Jing" to analyze it. Some details have been modified.

Soon, the white paper in front of him was filled with dense patterns and symbols.

…………

Time flies.

About an hour later, Gu Xu finally drew a preliminary improvement plan for "Red Flame True Art".

At this time, the orange lantern beside him suddenly went out and turned back into a crumpled talisman.

Gu Xu knew that this was because the true essence in the talisman had been exhausted, so he had to restore the original.

So he took out a talisman seal again, poured more true essence into it, and turned it into a brighter and longer-lasting lantern.

Then, he took out an old copper coin, recited the name of God, and asked, "Are there any loopholes in my modified exercises?"

The coin is tails up.

A satisfied smile appeared on Gu Xu's face.

Then he put away the pen and paper, lifted the lantern, and continued to walk deep into the cave, all the way down the steep slope.

The further you go, the higher the temperature.

The sound of the gurgling water became more and more clear.

After turning a few corners, his vision suddenly became brighter.

Soon, the lava river that Luo Sishou mentioned appeared in front of him.

Hot magma gushes out from the darkness and gallops along the river, like countless wild horses condensed by fire, containing majestic power.

The fiery air filled the cave, making Gu Xu feel like he was in a sauna.

However, at this moment, he suddenly discovered that he was not the only one in the cave——

I saw a woman sitting on the magma with her eyes closed, motionless.

She was dressed in red, holding a sharp golden and red spear in her arms, and her long black hair was scattered behind her.

Her skin was as pale as paper, and her red lips were as bright as blood.
