Killing Demons: Upgrading from Calligraphy

Chapter 70 Mo Jiao
"Is this mana?
A completely different feeling than inner energy. "

Feeling the cold and clear power in the sea of ​​consciousness, Qi Xiu moved slightly.

The feeling that mana gave him was not as real as inner energy.

Nothingness is penetrating.

Tangible and intangible.

But it contains some kind of potential power, which can vaguely trigger some changes and rules in this world.

After trying to control the magic power in his mind for a while, Qi Xiu moved his lips and recited a short spell.

This is one of the spells recorded in the Bitan Youlin Heart Sutra, and it is also the most important spell.

Mo Jiao!

The mantra was recited, and obscure syllables came out of Qi Xiu's mouth.

The mana in the sea of ​​consciousness turns into a light mist and pours into the body along with the chanting of the mantra, and faintly condenses into mysterious and ancient symbols, triggering the supernatural in the dark.

A moving shadow gradually emerged from the void.

Just when everything is running according to the records in the Heart Sutra.

The Ziji Dao Seed in Qi Xiu's dantian suddenly shook.

It seems that he sensed the intrusion of alien energy on his territory.

The majestic, powerful and majestic Ziji inner energy suddenly surged out.

Like an evil tiger that pounces on its prey, it crushes and annihilates all the mana flowing into the body with overwhelming force.

"puff……"

The two forces collided within the body, and the backlash caused Qi Xiu's blood to spurt out more than two meters away.

Rebel!

His eyes were shocked, and Qi Xiu frowned.

Unexpectedly, the first time he used a spell, he would be cut in half by the Ziji True Skill that he had worked so hard to cultivate.

He casually drew two [Medicine Talismans] to heal his internal injuries, and Qi Xiu gritted his teeth and started using the Purple Extreme Skill.

Take the Ziji inner energy that is still raging in the body, as if searching for the remaining mana, back into the Tao seed.

Wiping the blood from the corner of his mouth, Qi Xiu stared at the blood he spurted out and whispered secretly:

"So, is this the difficulty in cultivating both magic and martial arts?"

Inner energy and mana.

Like fire and water.

Coexisting in the same body, water and fire are naturally incompatible and opposed to each other.

The two forces are facing each other tit for tat, both wanting to shatter and annihilate the opponent and dominate the body.

In the end, it is the practitioners themselves who suffer.

But what Qi Xiu didn't know was the reason why he suffered such strong backlash.

It is not all due to the confrontation between inner energy and mana.

It's because he is completely different from the normal method of practicing both law and martial arts.

According to common sense, orthodox dual cultivation of magic and martial arts will cultivate internal energy and magic power at the same time.

And control the total amount of internal energy and mana.

Let the two be in a relative balance.

Avoid the situation where one party becomes too powerful and annexes and annihilates the other party.

Qi Xiu's current situation is that his true power and inner energy have been cultivated to the point where the true meaning is perfect and condensed into a Tao seed.

But the mana has just begun.

The complete imbalance between the two forces caused the inner energy to completely overwhelm the magic power, causing backlash.

This situation also reflects the shortcomings of casual cultivators like Qi Xiu.

There is no guidance from the elders of the sect.

Sometimes there are more than just detours.

You may even go the wrong way and end up in a dead end.

Fortunately, he has a solid foundation in real skills.

Ziji Zhengong also has extremely strong healing effects.

This backlash will not damage the foundation.

Otherwise, if it had been someone else, the person would have been dead in just one moment.

Feeling that the internal injuries are gradually recovering under the double healing of the medicinal talisman and Ziji Zhengong.

Qi Xiu is still determined to be a traitor.

He tried to use a bit of mana again.

But this time, mana has just poured into the body.

Ziji's inner energy suddenly rose upon hearing the wind, and he was about to pounce on him restlessly.

Hey, this is so shocking. You were trained by me, and you still want to turn against me!
Seeing Ziji's inner energy rushing towards the magic power again, Qi Xiu immediately used his true power to forcibly curb the movement of the inner energy and press it back into the Tao Seed.

The whole process was extremely difficult.

Forcibly suppressing the inner Qi instinct, Qi Xiu's whole body's Qi was extremely chaotic, and Qi waves surged, knocking away all the objects around him.

As for himself, veins popped up on his forehead and his face turned red from holding back.

It took a full quarter of an hour to suppress the restless inner energy back into Taoism.

Fortunately, Zi Ji Zhen Kung was made by combining several martial arts, refining and reorganizing it.It can be regarded as a martial arts completely created by him.

So it has a strong control over it.

Coupled with the innate advantages of the original Tao seed, he successfully pressured the inner air back to the Tao seed.

If you switch to other real martial arts, this kind of restlessness originating from the instinct of inner energy cannot be restrained at all.

The more depressed you are, the more restless you become.

Unexpectedly, Qi Xiu smiled helplessly when he was forced to be in such an awkward situation for the first time after entering the True Inner Realm. It would be because of his own inner energy.

Taking advantage of the inner energy being pressed back into the Tao seed.

Quickly mobilize mana, recite incantations, and cast spells.

While reciting spells and incantations, he continued to suppress the restless Taoist inner energy.

Qi Xiu frowned, large beads of sweat dripped down his cheeks, and the ground under his feet was wet.

As the mana condenses in the body, more and more symbols appear.

A mysterious aura gradually became stronger.

boo——

Like the sound of an object breaking out of the water.

Qi Xiu's eyes flashed with green light, and he felt slightly happy.

Become!

Raise your right arm.

A slender figure with a cold breath, black scales and long horns, scarlet eyes full of coldness, and lips and teeth full of sharp white teeth poked out from the broad sleeved robe.

Mo Jiao!

The core spell of Bilang Youlin Heart Sutra.

Use mana to concentrate and raise an ink dragon.

Use the ink dragon to swallow the miasma and gloomy energy of the world to consolidate and strengthen your magic power.

This method has endless uses.

The ink dragon absorbs spiritual energy, and all filth and evil spirits are digested by the ink dragon.

He only gets the pure mana after purification.

In this way, it will not be like practicing other spells.

The body was alienated and miserable.

Compared with the kind of people like Wu Changqing who feed spiritual insects on their own, they become neither humans nor ghosts, and their body is like an insect nest, which is like a sky and an earth.

"It is indeed a Heart Sutra that is on par with the real power. The quality is really good."

Playing with Mo Jiao, whose wrist was only as thick as chopsticks, Qi Xiu felt much happier.

Compared to other practitioners.

His starting point is already higher than many others.

Other practitioners practice the Bitan Youlin Heart Sutra.

Must follow the rules.

By stabbing magic patterns and soaking in cold springs, he accumulated magic power bit by bit.

The magic power accumulated in this way is mixed and impure due to various factors such as daily breath, thoughts, and energy, and cannot be consistent.

But he is different.

His magical power was entirely created out of thin air by the gods.

Pure, standard, ultimate!

That's why he was able to condense the ink dragon so smoothly.

Let's be someone else who practices this Heart Sutra.

It was absolutely impossible to condense the ink dragon for the first time.

Most of them are low-grade ones such as black snakes and black loaches. If you can cultivate middle-grade ones like black python, you will burn high incense.

Need to continue practicing hard in the future.

Only by correcting it bit by bit can it finally turn into an ink dragon.

It is far inferior to Qi Xiu, who has a high starting point and a solid foundation.

After refining the ink dragon, Qi Xiu admired it for a while, then his expression suddenly changed.

He quickly brought the ink dragon into the sea of ​​consciousness.

And the next second Mo Jiao returned to the sea of ​​consciousness.

The Ziji inner energy that could no longer be suppressed burst out of the Tao seed.

Like a tiger running down the mountain, it galloped and roared, quickly covering Qi Xiu's body.

Looking for a trace of magical energy.

However, with his previous experience, Qi Xiu has withdrawn all his mana into the sea of ​​consciousness.

The internal energy is dominated by the body.

Unable to enter the sea of ​​consciousness.

After running in the body for more than ten weeks, he was "unwilling" to return to Taoism and gave up angrily.
