Daojun: Start with the top-grade golden elixir

Chapter 24

Learning Taoism at the age of eight, building foundations for ten years, practicing methods for thirty years, traveling in Shenzhou for 28 years, and becoming a top-grade golden elixir at the age of Jiazi.

At the beginning of Xu Zhuang's learning of Daoism, although he could be said to be very talented, but in the Taisu orthodox sect, he was not considered astonishing.

For a long time, Xu Zhuang practiced steadily and steadily, and he was a ten-year-old horse. He succeeded in practicing at the age of 30, which is not too slow, and he became the true seed. At the age of 32, he traveled away from the mountains, walked through the world of mortals, experienced wind and rain, was born and died, and met the fate of immortals.

Jindan cultivator, live 2000 years, Yuanying venerable, live [-] years, Yuanshen real person, long-lived and long-sighted...

As a cultivator, sit and watch the wind rise and the clouds fall into the vicissitudes of life. For a Jindan cultivator with a long lifespan, ten years is not to mention a short span of time, but for Xu Zhuang's short practice career, This is already the longest retreat.

"The years in the mountains really go like flowing water, but in the blink of an eye, ten years have passed."

Xu Zhuang walked out of the majestic Beiji Pavilion. The spring day outside was just right, and the warm sun, which had not been seen in more than ten years, could not hurt Xu Zhuang's eyes, but brought a trace of trance.

However, a little bit of nostalgia was put behind my mind in an instant. Although ten years is not long, the Arctic Abyss Gorge is not a prison, but the forced confinement is different from my own choice. A kind of freedom and joy, from Xu Zhuang's heart rising.

He raised his head and saw the blue sky with fluffy clouds, suddenly raised his hand and flicked his fingers, and a white rainbow sword qi flew out, directly shooting into the sky, with an astonishing momentum, as if it wanted to cut the sky open. In an instant, he cut through the clouds, but suddenly fell into them. It would be better to drop water into the lake, but there is no wave.

Xu Zhuang smiled slightly, jumped into the sky by the wind, and passed the first layer of clouds. A sword mark that was hundreds of thousands of feet long and separated the layers of clouds suddenly jumped into the sky. eye.

Taisu Sword Qi can change the presence or absence of form and quality, it can be invisible or intangible!Pass through the first layer of clouds, cut through the sky behind it, without hurting the former one!
Xu Zhuang smiled heartily. In the Arctic Pavilion, he obtained the cultivation experience of the senior monks in the cave. The benefits are endless.

Therefore, not long after Xu Zhuang completed "Tai Su Has Intangible Quality Sword Qi", he refined the change of this quality, this level of state, among many masters of Taisu's authentic sect who practiced this sword art, Also very rare.

It's just that due to the inconvenience in the Arctic Pavilion, Xu Zhuang has never used it yet, but once he tried it, it was really amazing.

Imagine if Xu Zhuang fights with others in the future, and kills with a single sword, no matter how the opponent defends, Xu Zhuang's sword energy suddenly changes into a qualityless sword, passes through layers of protection, and suddenly changes into a qualitative sword in front of the opponent!There is simply no defense against it.

Just to perform such a change, the consumption of mana is really intense.

Xu Zhuang tried his hand for a while, and he consumed a huge amount of mana, but this is just a change of sword energy. How about if the imperial envoy sword pills can be divided into tens of lights?What's more, this sword pill of mine is made of meteorite iron and gold. It looks small and round, but it actually weighs more than a thousand catties.

With Xu Zhuang's magic power, he can use this sword pellet to perform various sword techniques, but if he wants to turn such quality into nothing, he doesn't know how difficult it will be.

He suddenly understood why this sword pill had been lying in the magic treasure pavilion in the door for a long time before it accidentally fell into his hands. It turned out that the genus of the sword pill did not quite match with the advanced swordsmanship in the door.

However, if it wasn't for Jianwan's company, I don't know how many hardships I have walked along the way, or even today's situation is different, who can tell.

Xu Zhuang didn't want to think about it anymore, he set up his escape light and left. When he was not in a hurry, he seldom flew with his sword escape, and flying with the wind was a special experience, and now his speed of flying with the wind can also be called extraordinary.

This is because the evasion technique that Xu Zhuang used when he didn't use sword evasion, is now on a higher level, and his evasion speed has naturally increased.

Xu Zhuang has retreated for ten years, and the harvest is not very small. Now it is not the same as when he first became a golden core. Not only is his mana perfect, his swordsmanship has greatly improved, and he has also practiced all the methods that he used to practice in the realm of practice.

Taoism is mysterious and strange, and the mysteries of different Taoism techniques are different. Although their powers are different, they are all divided into nine levels of perfection. Practicing Taoism can take as short as three to five days and as long as a hundred thousand years. For any practitioner It is said that, like practicing, it is a long and endless road.

In this world, there has never been a shortage of practitioners who are obsessed with the mysteries of Taoism, but ignore the fundamentals.

When Xu Zhuang was young, he practiced a lot of Taoism, but when he reached the third stage, there were only a dozen or so most suitable Taoist methods. nor.

No matter what kind of Taoism is advanced, the difficulty, power, and mystery will increase exponentially. For many monks, unless the golden core is hopeless, it is really not worthwhile to spend time cultivating Taoism to the fourth level when refining the law. It's a smart move.

But now that Xu Zhuang's talent has soared, he has refined a top-grade golden elixir, and practiced Taoism again, but in the blink of an eye, after only ten years of practice, he has practiced several of the most commonly used Taoism to the first level quadruple.

The first one is the Five Elements Escape Technique used by Xu Zhuang today. The Five Elements Escape Technique is the material basis of the Taoist theory. The Five Elements Escape Technique has always been one of the most common escape methods in the Taoism. The magical effect is endless, and it is also Xu Zhuang's common escape method.

There is also a Taoist technique called Yiqiqianjun, which is also learned in the school. It is a technique that focuses on quality and Taoism, and can attack and defend.

However, although this technique is known as "breathing into a thousand jun", its actual power naturally depends on the practitioner's level of Taoism and mana. If Xu Zhuang uses this technique again now, it may not be possible with the power of "a thousand jun". It is unknown whether it can be included, or it can crush mountains.

A method of finding traces, tracking, and locking. Its functions are simple and practical, and its name is also very common. It is called the small trace-seeking technique.

There is another unnamed technique, which was obtained by Xu Zhuang in the fairy mansion where he once obtained the "Secret Record of Three Phases, Six Seals and Nine Apertures Condensing Pill". It is very mysterious.

Although this martial art is practiced by Xu Zhuang because of its special origin, it is no different from the ordinary martial arts and the method of looking at qi. The Yuxiao sect who used to have advanced martial arts can shoot thunder light suddenly from both eyes, and the power is not trivial.

Finally, there is a method of thunder, called Chihuo Ganglei, which was not taught by Taisu's authentic sect, but learned from the exchanges between Xu Zhuang and Yuxiao sect's disciples. Not so powerful.

But this lightning method has an ingenious point, it can be refined into thunder beads that are half magic weapon and half Taoism with fire and cloud sand. One shot of lightning is not very powerful, and thousands of lightnings are powerful. .

Xu Zhuang used to refine a lot of thunderbolts, and now there are still many left, but the power of the third-order scarlet fire thunderbolt is no longer suitable for him, and later he bestowed it on Li Changfeng.

Speaking of his cheap disciple, although he gained some benefits from worshiping in his sect, he really didn't receive any guidance from him, and he practiced very diligently.

Xu Zhuang retreated for ten years, and only received news from Li Changfeng a few times. The first time was seven years ago, when Li Changfeng reported to him the completion of the repair of Chongyun Peak and the progress of his practice.

Since breaking through the barriers of the 72 paths of pure and turbid qi, the journey has been smooth, and finally 81 paths of pure and turbid qi have been refined.

At this point, as long as the clear and turbid are united and cultivated into mana, because the foundation is perfect, it can be regarded as the true seed of the sect from then on.

However, the True Inheritance Seeds has always been just a common name, and they are actually inner disciples, and there are thousands of Taisu Sect members, so the True Inheritance Seeds are not rare, and the difference in cultivation level is also very large.

So after five years of hard work, Li Changfeng finally broke through the realm of refining, but instead of feeling complacent, he became more and more urgent.After feeling that his cultivation has stabilized and he has cultivated a few more close-to-body Taoism, he embarked on the old road of Xu Zhuang, the master, and went out of the mountain gate to travel.

This was also the last message Xu Zhuang received from Li Changfeng, just half a year ago.

In addition, in the past ten years, there were two letters from Han Wang. The first letter was to send a talisman, which was said to be a magic talisman refined by the Venerable Yuanying in the door, and gave Xu Zhuang the ability to eliminate evil spirits. , but the effect is not very gratifying. ;
The second time I sent a letter, it was a rare thing that happened, a monster of the golden core of the magic way appeared out of nowhere, dared to slaughter mortals in the realm under the jurisdiction of Taisu Zhengzong, practiced cultivation methods, and seriously injured the sect. A golden core monk who used to exorcise demons.

For thousands of years, the land of Shenzhou has been ruled by Taoist orthodox sects. It has been peaceful for a long time, and there has never been any space for demons, monsters, and heretics to survive, let alone the territory under the jurisdiction of Taisu orthodox sects.

So this matter is very rare and very bad, so Han Wang had to deal with it himself, and there was no follow-up for the time being to find the solution to the demon's inspiration.

However, Xu Zhuang didn't feel any urgency now. He was guarded by the Great Cave Array in the sect, and his practice in the Beiji Pavilion was very stable for ten years, and he hadn't really felt the influence of the evil spirit until now.

And Xu Zhuang has only refined the golden elixir not long ago. Although he has gone through a short retreat, he is far from reaching the bottleneck. His self-awareness is boundless, and it is time to forge ahead.

Anyway, there is nothing left and right, so it is better to go back and see how the current situation of Chongyun Peak is, and then practice in seclusion for a while.Xu Zhuang has the nature of cultivating the Tao. If he can improve his cultivation by simply sitting in the gate, he actually doesn't mind practicing behind closed doors. He can cultivate to the great completion of the golden core in one breath, and even become a nascent infant. .

If there is such a day, what kind of evil spirits from outside the sky and entanglements in common matters will bother him.

Just as he was thinking about it, Xu Zhuang felt his spiritual consciousness suddenly stagnate, his eyes darkened, he suddenly stopped the light, and looked up, the sky seemed to be covered by dark clouds suddenly, and the sky was dark, and then the sky spun, and the whole person seemed to fall As if falling into a vortex, sinking 'downward' continuously, Xu Zhuang was trying his best to stabilize his body, when a piercing laughter suddenly sounded very close behind his ears, like a stone rubbing against a metal, it was very strange.

"Who!" Xu Zhuang suddenly turned around, but there was nothing behind him, and then he suddenly realized that everything was as usual, the blue sky was clear, and the white clouds were blooming, and he looked under the clouds, Chongyun Peak was already in sight, his own escape light It doesn't seem to stay for a moment, everything is just an illusion!
"Heavenly evil!" Xu Zhuang's face darkened, showing an ugly expression. He never thought that one moment he thought that evil was harmless, and the next moment he would be invaded by an external evil. Although he went away in an instant, he could never again Take it for granted!
"Obviously in the great formation of the Zongmen's cave, he should have been safe, and he has not been disturbed during the past ten years of cultivation in the North Pole Pavilion..."

Thinking of this, Xu Zhuang was startled, whether he was not disturbed, it was all his own family's thinking, and the evil spirit invaded, and he had nothing to investigate?Or was it because he thought of the evil in his heart just now, and under the inspiration, he was harmed by the evil for the first time?

As soon as all kinds of conjectures were generated, they were deeply planted in Xu Zhuang's heart like a devil's root. Xu Zhuang knew that no matter what happened, his mood was indeed disturbed, so he quickly closed his eyes, sacrificed his heart sword, and cut off all kinds of distracting thoughts. His face became much calmer.

"Great Zizai Xuanjun Liumiao Yuzhuo Tianzi!" Xu Zhuang silently chewed on this inescapable Heavenly Demon title, feeling a chill in his heart, "Even the great array of caves can't completely isolate this demon? I'm afraid it's far beyond what Senior Brother Han and I understand and guess."

Xu Zhuang instantly became deeply afraid of the harm caused by the demon's influence, and his desire for a solution became urgent.

He glanced at Chongyun Peak, which was far away, and he no longer had the slightest thought of returning to the cave to practice behind closed doors. Suddenly, he retracted the five-element escape method, gave birth to a sword light, turned it into a white rainbow, and turned it into a white rainbow. If he didn't enter, he went to the cloud again.

-

In fact, few people set foot on the third floor of Langhuan Tower on weekdays, but it has been disturbed recently. Xu Zhuang didn't even want to waste the time he landed on the hanging platform. This yellow paper book.

If people see this appearance of being absorbed in body and mind, they will think it is some kind of profound Taoism, but in fact, what Xu Zhuang read is not a Taoist book, but just a miscellaneous note. At the speed of Xu Zhuang's reading, hundreds of thousands of words can be read He finished reading without missing a word, but the information he wanted to know was only a few words mentioned.

Since Xu Zhuang left the Beiji Pavilion, he was suddenly disturbed by the summoning of the Heavenly Demon, and before he could return to Chongyun, he went to see the Master Zhangjiao.

Unexpectedly, when he arrived in the cloud palace, Tong'er greeted Yuanhua before he saw the face of Daoist Yuanhua. When he met his face, he chanted: "Ji Shou Tian is in the middle of the sky, and a little light shines on the sky; the eight winds can't be blown, and I sit upright in my heart." lotus.

Before Xu Zhuang thought about it carefully, Tong'er asked Xu Zhuang if he still wanted to meet the real person. In the end, Xu Zhuang still didn't enter the Yun Palace, but turned back and went straight to Langhuan Tower, hoping that among the countless books, he could find Help him exorcise evil spirits.

This is already the sixth day he came to Langhuan Building, he read countless books, but he gained very little.

In this Langhuan Tower, if you want to talk about restraining heresy, magic, monsters, spells and supernatural powers, there are countless methods. I don't know how many methods to exorcise evil spirits, but Xu Zhuang has tried more than ten kinds of books. There are many useful methods, but none of them work.

If this continues, is it possible to try all the methods of exorcising evil and demons in Hengsha?
Xu Zhuang closed the books in his hands in disappointment, sighed, and felt a little bit in his heart, even if he turned the Langhuan Tower up again, he might not get what he wanted, and he might have to find another way to deal with the foreign demons. Otherwise, is it possible that in the end, he still has to seek the real Yuanhua?
It must be known that Taoism’s orthodox views on demonic obstacles and catastrophes are not really to be avoided. There is no saying that seeking the Tao can go smoothly to the end. Going through catastrophes is not a purely bad thing. Which one is not going all the way?Even if one achieves the primordial spirit and claims to live forever, there are still three disasters.

And the orthodox sect of Taoism has always followed this principle in the training of its disciples, never being stingy, but never spoiling, if there is no sect to rely on, everything can be solved.

So what if it is a true sect, if you fight against your peers outside, your skills are not as good as others, and you are killed, there may be fellow sects, relatives and friends who will seek revenge for you, but there will be no sect shock, please use the truth of Yuanshen to avenge you.

So until the very last moment, Xu Zhuang didn't want to do this, which is why the real boy didn't really refuse him to see the real teacher, but he turned back in the end.

But if he can't get rid of the disturbance of evil spirits, it's even more impossible to calm down and practice. Now Xu Zhuang has been caught in a dilemma.
