Chapter 63 Undercurrent
That night.

Academy, in Lin Lan's courtyard.

"My lord, just now a steward of Qian Wang's mansion came and said that he brought a gift for the princess."

Fan Qingyao walked in with an exquisite sandalwood gift box in both hands, and asked, "Would you like to open it and have a look?"

"Demolish." Lin Lan practiced with half-closed eyes, and responded without looking at it.

After Fan Qingyao opened the gift box, she found that it was a medicine bottle with a note attached to it.

She picked up the note and looked at it, and said softly: "Mr. Lin Lan, at least you can enter the top five with your strength. This time, the school is willing to help me. The school will give gifts. This Yuzhen San will be given in advance." Give it to Mr. Lin Lan."

"Yuzhen San? What kind of elixir is this?" Fan Qingyao asked suspiciously.

Lin Lan said casually: "Go to the pharmacy and ask an instructor, don't you know?"

"Okay, I'll go right now."

Fan Qingyao immediately turned around and went out with the medicine bottle.

Lin Lan continued to practice with her eyes closed.

After half an hour, Fan Qingyao came back excitedly and said, "My lord, Qiu Jiao of pharmacy said that this Yuzhen San can increase the magic power to 300 years, which is comparable to Taiqing Yuludan. It is an extremely precious medicine." What about panacea?"

"How to take it?" Lin Lan asked.

"Just take it directly. Qiu Jiaoyu said that this panacea is mild and can be absorbed in ten and a half months." Fan Qingyao said immediately.

"Then give it to me." Lin Lan said casually.

Fan Qingyao let out a cry, poured out the elixir, fed it to Lin Lan, and asked in confusion, "Master, you don't seem to care much about this elixir?"

After Lin Lan swallowed this somewhat refreshing elixir, she said calmly: "For me, it doesn't do much, it just improves mana, it doesn't help supernatural powers, and there is no improvement in Taoism."

"That's right, the young master has changed so much... so powerful, and his mana has increased very quickly." Fan Qingyao said deliberately.

Lin Lan glanced at her servant girl speechlessly, and this girl became more and more playful after getting acquainted with her.

However, he wasn't lying.

He was originally born with excellent aura, and he was assisted by the Heaven Thief method. After accumulating the limit of tranquility, his practice speed was more than ten times faster than normal.

If he practiced for about a month, he would be able to improve his mana for ten years.

With the help of Chaoyuansan and Tianyuandian, plus these three months of practice, his own magic power has reached about 120 years.

But mana is only second.

The key to Taoism lies in the 'supernatural power'.

For him, he does not lack the mana and will required to practice supernatural powers. The most difficult thing is to improve the level of skill.

Of course, this 'difficulty' is also relative to himself.

At the beginning, it took him nine days to reach the level of "Yujian" in the realm of sword intent, and to refine the prototype of supernatural powers, because of the help of the artistic conception map of swordsmanship and supernatural powers and the sword sharpening stone.

As for the other five supernatural powers, if you want to improve your artistic conception, you have to wait a little longer.

Even though every supernatural power has a visualization map of artistic conception, when you visualize in your mind in a state of tranquility, you can easily achieve the unity of mind and heart, and it is easier to grasp the artistic conception, but it took about half a month to practice. Become the embryonic form of supernatural powers.

It is only more than ten times faster than a real genius, and slower than the supernatural power of swordsmanship.

After all, he is a fellow practitioner of the six supernatural powers, and the most difficult thing is that the six supernatural powers must be developed simultaneously.

So after three months, it didn't take long for his six supernatural powers to be refined into the prototype of supernatural powers, and it generally took more than ten years to refine them.

The key that really allowed him to easily defeat Wu Hua was Mo Tianshi's "Ten Thousand Laws Returning to One".

The supernatural method created by the magic celestial master in his life is indeed incredible.

After careful study, Lin Lan probably understood the principle of this supernatural power——

In fact, it is 'compression'.

When a normal person practices multiple supernatural powers, various supernatural powers coexist, but they do not affect each other, they just coexist.

But Mo Tianshi's "Ten Thousand Laws into One" is to force the multiple supernatural powers to influence each other, oppress each other, and stabilize the balance, so as to make the power of supernatural powers more condensed.

Every time there is one more supernatural power, the power of the supernatural power can be condensed twice, the highest is that the six supernatural powers interact and oppress each other, and the power can be condensed to six times the original level.

Any one of the supernatural powers is six times the original, so his sword light has that power.

Even though his kendo supernatural power has only been in its infancy for more than ten years, but after the sword essence has been condensed six times, the power of controlling the sword is comparable to that of a demigod. Only in this way can he easily defeat Wu Hua with only his kendo supernatural power.

"There are still more than ten days left in the Chengyuan Examination, and I can still make some progress."

Lin Lan opened his eyes, took another look at the visualization map of kendo artistic conception hanging in front of him, continued to close his eyes, and visualized silently.

Under the extremely quiet and active thinking, sword intents are constantly bursting out in the mind, criss-crossing in nothingness, removing the chaff and preserving the chaff, and gradually becoming more pure and subtle.

The mana in the body is constantly running and improving in the rolling ice flow formed by Yuzhen San.

The power of supernatural power is also under the influence of Qing Jingyi, slowly melting the mind, mana, and artistic conception into one, melting and forging the prototype of supernatural power by itself, deepening the heat at a perceivable speed.

This is why he has been nesting in the house for the past three months.

With this terrifyingly efficient practice speed, if you go out to attend lectures or practice swords, it will only waste time.

"Young master, then I will start to practice."

Fan Qingyao glanced at Lin Lan who was immersed in cultivation, and sat down on the chair beside him, while carefully placing a slender hand on the back of Lin Lan's hand.

Lin Lan glanced at her from the corner of his eye, and then his heart moved, and the tranquility that had already accumulated to the limit merged the excess into her body.

After a maximum of one month of accumulation of tranquility, the effect will reach its limit, and the excess can be separated out.

——He discovered this three months ago.

However, perhaps because of Heaven Thief's method, for other people, the effect of tranquility is not as outrageous as for him.

But it can also keep the mind clear and quiet, and increase the speed of smelting magical powers several times.

Therefore, Fan Qingyao smelted the prototype of supernatural powers in just two or three months, several times faster than Pavilion Master Yue estimated.

The house became quiet again.

Time, in the peaceful practice, passed bit by bit, gradually approaching the day of the Chengyuan Exam on the ninth day of the first lunar month.

……

……

But for Chonghua City, this day is destined to be unsettled.

——The new Xuezheng of the Chonghua Academy, the genius 'Lin Lan' who has only been admitted to the Palace for a short time, defeated the second Xuezheng of martial arts, Wuhua, after only three months of practice!
This shocking news disappeared without wings, like cooking oil in a raging fire. In less than half a day, most of Chonghua City was boiling.

……

The imperial palace, the hall of worship.

"what?"

Chen Yan, who was dressed in ragged blue robes and bloodstains all over his body, was standing in front of the palace gate, looking at the figure of the old man sitting cross-legged with his back facing him in surprise. He couldn't believe it. He said calmly: "Master, you said that Lin Lan defeated the second Xuezheng of Chonghua School of martial arts?"

The deep and hoarse voice of the old man Qiujian sounded slowly: "According to the information from the Temple of Enshrinement, the prototype of Lin Lan's supernatural power of swordsmanship is at least nearly a hundred years old. Even if it has not reached the level of semi-supernatural power, it is not far behind."

"It's only been three months...how could it be so fast?" Chen Yan couldn't believe it.

"This talent is indeed terrifying." The old man Qiujian said in a low voice: "In the history of Renzong, there are few people who can compare with him. He is really a peerless wizard in the way of swords."

Chen Yan muttered in a daze: "Then I..."

"What are you panicking about?"

The old man Qiujian said indifferently: "It's only at the level of semi-supernatural powers. With your current strength, you are no worse than him. As long as you continue to raise the sword with your own body, let the heart and soul blend with the divine sword to a deeper level, and achieve 'forget yourself like a sword. 'to the point where you can give full play to the power of the divine sword and ordinary semi-supernatural powers, where is your opponent? It is not difficult to win the championship."

"Yes." Chen Yan took a deep breath, with a look of determination in his eyes, "I know."

"As long as you can survive the difficulty of cultivating the sword with your heart and soul, there is hope to reach my current level in the future, and even great supernatural powers may have a chance."

The old man Qiujian sighed softly: "It's a pity that my disciples in the past were not qualified enough, and their sword hearts were not pure. None of them could succeed. Over the years, I have found that you are such a hopeful success."

Chen Yan immediately knelt in front of the palace gate, and said in a deep voice, "I will definitely live up to my master's entrustment."

"It seems that Lin Lan has almost become your demon."

The old man Qiujian said: "It just so happens that Lin Lan is also going to take part in the Chengyuan Trial. Then you have to beat him hard and fast, so that you can have a pure sword heart in the future, and you can truly cultivate your sword with your heart and soul."

Chen Yan clenched his fists without saying a word, his eyes were full of despair.

……

The Jingtiantai is called by the princes as a hell-like existence, but in fact the Jingtiantai's mansion is very clean, with lush flowers and trees, and there seems to be no dust on the ground made of white jade.

Every 'Qing Angel' official who enters and exits the Jingtiantai will also brush his shoes clean before entering the Jingtiantai Mansion.

This is the rule of the first lord of Jingtiantai. If the ground is dirty, he will be punished severely.

This rule, even the venerables of the Jingtiantai dare not go beyond it in the slightest.

Even though the venerables have a respectable status, comparable to the master of the secret pavilion of Renzong, none of the venerables dared to offend the first lord.

There is a saying in Taoism that the Southern Dou marks life, and the Big Dipper marks death.

The founder of the first generation who established Jingtiantai seemed to be admiring the knowledge of Taoism, and even the position of Jingtiantai was named after Beidou.

Director of Jingtiantai Mansion, in the mansion of Venerable Yaoguang.

At this time, there was a young man with a knife standing in the courtyard. Half of his hair was disheveled, but half of his scalp was bald. There was a crooked scar on his face. His eyes were closed, and the long knife in his hand was trembling constantly, making a burst of noise. There was a strange sound like howling ghosts and howling gods.

"Okay."

A cold woman's voice suddenly sounded in the courtyard: "Jing Banshou, with your current accumulation and morality, winning the championship is like picking something out of a bag, but don't forget the mission given to you by the first lord, your goal is not to win the championship."

The strange ringing sound gradually dissipated.

The man with the knife slowly opened his eyes, and said expressionlessly: "Lord Yaoguang, of course I know the request of the first lord, but I still don't quite understand...why did you choose me?"

The cold woman's voice said lightly: "There is no particular reason, just because the supernatural power of the 'Sanghunyin' you cultivated is the most difficult to guard against, and you also practice the technique of the channel of sacrificing the physical body of the Taoist gate, which is just right to deal with the county. The Lord's best choice."

The corner of the knife-wielding man's mouth suddenly turned into a crazy smile: "My lord, do you really allow me to kill the most honorable Princess Pingle in the world?"

"If you can kill, that's your ability." The cold woman's voice sneered.

Hearing the words, the man holding the knife couldn't help but clenched the handle of the knife tightly, trembling slightly all over, as if he couldn't suppress his inner excitement.

He took a deep breath, and then asked with a smile: "What about the others? Can I kill them? I heard that recently there was a peerless genius named Lin Lan, and I happened to kill them for you. Isn't it?"

"Chengyuan is always protected by formations in the test. It is very difficult to kill people in the test, and we can only give you one chance."

The cold female voice said indifferently: "Jing Banshou, put away your desire to kill. Although I don't think you can kill Princess Pingle, you are indeed the greatest threat to her."

The man with the knife said with a bright smile: "Really? Then I really want to try it."

……

Yan Mansion, located near the palace city of Chonghua City, is also a well-known courtier's residence in Chonghua City.

Because the owner of this mansion is Yan Boqi, Minister of the Household Department, a senior member of the dynasty, and his daughter Yannan is also a genius in the Chonghua Academy. She was promoted to Xuezheng at a young age, and her future is limitless.

In the study room, an old man in green robe with gray temples was sitting in front of the table, holding a green pen in his hand, quietly writing a piece of paper.

He is "Yan Boqi", the Minister of the Ministry of household affairs.

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door of the study room, and a man's deep voice came from outside the room: "Master, I'm back."

"Come in."

Yan Boqi said without raising his head.

Immediately, a middle-aged man in Tsing Yi dressed as a coachman walked in from outside the study, it was the 'Uncle Qi' who often followed Yan Nan.

Not seeing what Yan Boqi did, an invisible barrier of sound insulation formed instantly.

"My lord, all the things you told me have been done."

The middle-aged man in Tsing Yi said in a low voice: "The two dragons you raised in Yizhou Zhoumu Mansion have been appeased and fed by your subordinates, but they are still a little dissatisfied. It's just that I heard that the subordinates are still investigating, so there is no trouble. .”

"After all, Ying Jiao is dead." Yan Boqi said indifferently: "I don't know if Ying Jiao was killed by that demon celestial master, or for some other reason, but there is no trace of Ying Jiao, it's really strange."

"The magic celestial master's Taoism is not good enough, how can he kill the dragon?" The middle-aged man in Tsing Yi asked doubtfully.

"It's hard to say."

Yan Boqi shook his head slightly, "A few days ago, I contacted the sect and asked Dayin from Houchu to help investigate, and found that the demon master was an abandoned disciple of the Taoist sect, and in the ancestral court of Houchu, he His former status seemed to be extremely high, and he was probably a Daoist wizard, but for some reason, he was abolished by the headmaster of Daozong, and even expelled from the gate."

He said softly: "Perhaps...then the Heavenly Demon Master really has some special way to kill the dragon?"

"Wizard of Dao Sect?" The middle-aged man in Tsing Yi was stunned, "I've never heard of it."

"It must have been a facelift."

Yan Boqi narrowed his eyes slightly, and said, "I don't know where he is now. Could it be that he has received the legacy of the first national teacher and went to retreat to practice painstakingly? Perhaps Lin Lan may know a thing or two."

The middle-aged man in Tsing Yi sighed: "At the beginning, the master asked me to take the young lady to make friends with Lin Lan. At first, I thought that Lin Lan's qualifications were mediocre, and I don't know why he was favored by the magic celestial master. The master's vision is indeed much more vicious than mine."

"Nothing unusual?"

Yan Boqi smiled, "Then Lin Lan has almost cultivated to the level of semi-supernatural powers in three months. Such an amazing talent, either hides his aptitude, or he got the treasures of the first generation of the national teacher, such as some pills, so he made up for his mana. this flaw."

The middle-aged man in Tsing Yi nodded slightly and said, "What the master said is true."

Yan Boqi asked again: "What's the result of the investigation on Lin Lan in the church?"

"Several Zhongyin philistines in Mingzhou have conducted a detailed investigation on Lin Lan."

The middle-aged man in Tsing Yi took out a roll of documents from his sleeve, handed it to Yan Boqi, and said at the same time: "From the comparison of Lin Lan's life in the past 20 years and his current temperament, Lin Lan has either been taken away, or It is the awakening of the memory of the reincarnation, but since he can enter the entrance palace, he cannot be the one who was taken away. According to the calculation of time, Lin Lan should have awakened the memory of his previous life during the two months in prison."

Yan Boqi unfolded the document and read it carefully for a while, then nodded slightly and said: "That's true. People who have awakened the memory of the previous life seem to have experienced the previous life again, and their personality is naturally closer to the previous life, as if they have changed."

Immediately, with a slight flick of his fingertips, the document turned into dust and disappeared without a trace.

"Then... do you want to deal with Lin Lan?" asked the middle-aged man in Tsing Yi.

"Against Lin Lan?"

Yan Boqi shook his head and smiled: "Do we still need to deal with it? He is so dazzling now that the Jingtiantai of the Taoist and Buddhist Sects may not be able to sit still. With his little knowledge, he dared to participate in this Chengyuan test. It's suicidal."

He pondered for a while, and said: "Let's confirm the life and traces of the demon celestial master first. I heard that the demon celestial master lived in Chonghua City for a period of time after he was expelled from the gate by the Taoist sect. Renzong's natal supernatural power, maybe he knows any Renzong practitioners in Chonghua City?"

The middle-aged man in Tsing Yi immediately said: "Master, I will send someone to investigate right away."

Yan Boqi nodded slightly, and then ordered: "You have to pay attention to the concealment, and don't forget the purpose of my Yinjiao."

The middle-aged man in Tsing Yi said respectfully: "Yes, sir, don't worry, even the young lady has never noticed."

……

King Qian's Mansion is located in Tianmufang, almost occupying a square, with rich gates and red walls, luxurious and majestic, it can be called the largest garden mansion in Chonghua City.

Wangfu Dongyuan.

A beautiful figure in white clothes lay on her back on the shady grass, she was a stunning woman in a white skirt and blouse, no matter the delicate lips and nose or the beautiful eyebrows and eyes, they were all ingenious and almost perfect.

It's just that there is a trace of indelible sadness on this beautiful face, silently looking at the somewhat dark and hazy sky, his eyes are a little confused.

"White Moon."

A slightly hoarse voice sounded.

The stunning woman was slightly taken aback, quickly got up and knelt down, and said in a low voice: "Princess, you are back."

The person who came was tall and heroic, with a world-weary temperament in his eyes, he was the princess of Pingle.

"Your fifteen sisters all said that you have been lying here all day."

Princess Pingle looked at this stunning woman, sighed helplessly, and said: "Don't worry, I have already verified for you that your two sisters who fell into the hands of Jingtiantai are the leaders of Chengyuan's trial this time." Additional rewards."

The stunning woman raised her head excitedly when she heard the words: "Princess, I..."

"You can't go."

Princess Pingle shook his head and said: "This is obviously a lure by Jingtiantai, and it is so obvious that the goal should not be to lure you into the game, but to wait for me to win the championship and save people. I guess... your two sisters, There should be some means of purifying the roof, even if I rescue your two sisters, I may not be able to really save them."

The stunning woman was silent for a moment, then sighed, "I guess it's to force me to go back."

Princess Pingle said indifferently: "You just stay here in Prince Qian's Mansion. Even if Chonghua City is broken, nothing will happen to Prince Qian's Mansion."

The stunning woman bit her lip and said, "But..."

"Don't worry." Princess Pingle said softly: "I'll save your two sisters first, even if they really have the means left by Jingtiantai, at worst, I'll ask Grandpa Guoshi to do it, and it may not be impossible at that time Save your two sisters, don't you believe me?"

"The one I trust the most is naturally you, it's just..."

Speaking of this, the stunning woman sighed, but said respectfully: "Then I will trouble you."

……

Evenings go and courts come and go, and they live endlessly.

In the blink of an eye, it is time to update the year sequence, and the 27th year of Dao Qi has come to an end.

But this New Year's Eve is destined to be difficult for many people.

With the undercurrent surging, finally ushered in the Chengyuan Exam on the ninth day of the first lunar month.
