Taoist Myth: I am the last true immortal in the world

Chapter 270 Progress Bar

At night, everyone found an open area to rest in the virgin forest.

At this moment, everyone was eating dry food and chatting all over the place.

Chen Yun, as usual, found a trunk of a big tree to lean against and took out a kettle to take a sip from time to time.

In addition to practicing tonight, he also had something very important to do, but there were so many people here that it was not convenient to do it for the time being, so he also participated in the chat.

Wu Kejiu was telling anecdotes, "Do you know the poet Li Bai?"

Zhang Ling said with some admiration: "With such a great name as Banished Immortal, everyone should know it, right?"

Wu Kejiu blinked and said, "Then do you know that Li Bai was also an extremely powerful ascetic during his lifetime?"

Chen Yun really didn't know this, so he asked with some curiosity, "Is layman Qinglian also a member of my Taoist sect?"

"Isn't he a poet?"

"I heard that he also practiced swordsmanship with Pei Min, the Sword Master of the Tang Dynasty. Then Pei Min is not a member of the Taoist sect."

Longnu Sanjiu, Sun Yan and others were all surprised.

Chen Yun knew something about Pei Min. It is said that this man was praised as a swordsman. His swordsmanship was very high and rare in the world. He was from the Kaiyuan period and had participated in the wars against the Xi people, Khitan and Tubo.

According to the "New Book of Tang", Pei Min's official rank was "General Zuo Jin Wuwei".

How superb is Pei Min's swordsmanship?
There is a rumor about the integration of swords and paintings, which can prove his swordsmanship.

It is said that during the Kaiyuan period, Pei Min wanted to ask the great painter Wu Daozi to paint a mural in Tiangong Temple to save the soul of the deceased because of his mother's death.

Wu Daozi said: I haven't painted for a long time. If General Pei insists that I paint, I have to ask the general to dance a "Sword Dance" to inspire my painting ideas.

Pei Min immediately took off his mourning clothes and danced with his sword. He was seen "moving as fast as flying, turning left and right." Suddenly, he "threw the sword into the clouds, dozens of feet high. If lightning was shot down, Min held the sheath in his hand and held it." , the sword penetrated the room."

The sword was thrown dozens of feet high, but he was able to catch it with the scabbard in his hand and put it straight into the sheath. It was really a unique sword skill.

At that time, thousands of onlookers were shocked and admired.

Wu Daozi was also moved by the fierce momentum of the sword dance, and he had a quick thinking in painting. With the help of God, he waved the painting on the wall, and the wind blew, and soon a mural "the most spectacular in the world" was completed.

This kind of swordsmanship is nothing to practitioners, but it is indeed magical in the mortal world.

Therefore, it is not incomprehensible that Li Bai, who likes sword dancing, would learn swordsmanship from Pei Min.

Chen Yunzheng recalled Pei Min's message.

Wu Kejiu smiled and continued: "You don't know that Li Bai met Sima Chengzhen, the great master of the Shangqing Sect, as early as when he was twenty-five years old, and obtained the Qi Conquering Technique, and then, he Although his official career was not very smooth, his cultivation talent was extremely high. In less than twenty years, he had reached the level of a mid-level mage. Later, he was taught the Taoism by Master Gao Rugui of Ziji Palace and was accepted as a disciple."

It turns out that this is the case. Chen Yun has always been curious about Li Bai's death and asked: "Since Qinglian layman has a superb cultivation level, why is it rumored that he became immortal in his sixties?"

The emergence mentioned here refers to death, not the emergence into immortality.

Speaking of this matter, Wu Kejiu sighed, "Li Taibai's temperament is really too crazy. It is said that he was drinking on the Dangtu River when he suddenly noticed a very powerful demon in the water, which turned into a moon and was printed upside down on the river. Li Taibai himself Thinking that his cultivation was superb, he did not go back to Ziji Palace to call his brothers and elders for help. He jumped into the water to fight with the demon alone. The result was as you can imagine. He was drowned by the demon on the spot and his soul returned to heaven. It is not known whether he was killed or not. The Three Officials were granted the position of immortal by the Great Emperor.”

Probably not.

Chen Yun did not hear anything about Li Bai's canonization of gods in Taoism.

However, after hearing Wu Kejiu's story, Chen Yun immediately felt a chill in his heart, because he found that as his cultivation level became higher and higher, he seemed to be starting to become a little "arrogant".

In the past, when he encountered dangerous situations, his first reaction was to look at the situation, and even to think of ways to save his life first.

However, after entering the Sun Moon Lake Cave, the situation seems to have changed.

You may have been cautious at first, but in the two battles after breaking through to the high-level mage, it seemed that you were a little overconfident.

For example, when playing against Kang Yuan, he didn't think about anything at the time. He directly used the vertical golden light to fall to the ground and fight with the opponent.

Another example is that in the previous match against Lu Cheng, I still started a fight with the opponent without knowing the specific methods of the opponent.

Although it may seem like a last resort on the surface, this is indeed not my style.

Chen Yun didn't notice this before. It wasn't until Wu Kejiu gossiped about Li Bai today that he vaguely realized that he had been acting more and more "arrogantly" recently.

This is not a good sign.

One of the most important training courses in Taoist practice is to cultivate the mind.

Nowadays, I sometimes do things that seem to go against my own heart.

Chen Yun knew that it must be that his cultivation was becoming more and more advanced, and he was becoming more affected by the calamity of lust.

The calamity of lust is something that is not easily noticed by ordinary people, but it will affect every move of the person caught in the calamity all the time.

"No, I have to find a way to break the calamity of lust. Otherwise, when I become a highly skilled mage, I may not be as arrogant as I am. I may even fall into obsession."

Chen Yun began to pay attention to this issue.

It's just that if you want to break the tribulation of lust, you need a specific method.

The simplest thing is to get what you want, that is, to get what you want in your heart. For example, at the beginning, he killed Lin Feiyun to briefly break the tribulation.

But now it seems impossible to get what I want in my heart.

Chen Yun couldn't help but think of Xie Ziran's delicate face again, and couldn't help but sigh secretly in his heart, "What kind of crooked thing am I doing? There are so many women in the world, and I can get a lot at my fingertips. Why do I miss the last one?" The woman you’ll never get?”

Perhaps it was because of the tribulation of lust that he was in low spirits. Even when Wu Kejiu, Qin Ming and others gossiped about other things, Chen Yun was not interested in hearing them anymore.

……

It's just dark.

Chen Yun was patrolling around as always.

Because this is a primeval forest, it is very likely that there are many wild beasts, and there may even be spiritual beasts.

Therefore, for everyone's safety, he patrolled more carefully than usual.

Of course, he was not idle either. While patrolling, he also used his magic power to set up a bonfire near the camp and cook wolf stomach soup for consumption.

An hour passed, and tonight's first steamed wolf stomach soup was ready.

Chen Yun, who was patrolling in mid-air, used his magic power to capture the pottery pot, then cooled it down slightly and swallowed it all in one gulp.

Immediately, he cleaned the clay pot with water magic, added the ingredients for cooking wolf stomach soup, used magic again to capture it, put it back on the bonfire, and continued to cook it.

After a while, the Langwei Decoction took effect, stimulating the medicinal effects of the Lianjing Huaqi Decoction.

While Chen Yun inspected the surroundings of the camp, he sensed the transformation of true energy in his body.

Perhaps because of the breakthrough to a high-level mage, although the amount of true energy that was transformed at this time was large, the increase was very limited.

Another hour passed.

The effect of the first refining Qi Decoction tonight has ended.

Chen Yun checked the growth rate of true energy and said, "The increase is a bit small. I estimate that after refining all the remaining refining qi soup, I can reach the middle stage of the advanced mage. And it's not necessarily certain. The details still need to be determined." You won’t know until you refine it.”

Although the growth rate of his cultivation has slowed down a lot now, he doesn't feel too disappointed.

After all, you should rely on yourself to practice this kind of thing.

Chen Yun felt that he was very lucky to be able to quickly improve his cultivation with the help of spiritual soup at a certain stage.

He continued to take the Wolf Stomach Decoction for the second time.

It's just that this time Chen Yun's attention is not entirely on refining the medicine.

At this time, he stepped on the top branch of a big tree in the sky, and a radiant pagoda appeared in his palm, which was the five-color glazed pagoda.

"I've had this thing for so long, but I still haven't been able to try it out."

Chen Yun stared at the five-colored glazed pagoda for a while, "I have judged before that if I can break through to a superior mage, I will be able to use this treasure. After all, I judged at that time that if I can break through to a superior mage, it will be extremely possible." I may be able to master some of the power operations of 'gods', and it is true that after becoming a high-ranking mage, I have mastered some of the abilities of the soul."

Try to see if you can use the power of the soul to activate the pagoda.

He mixed the consciousness of the soul with the true energy and put it outside his body, then injected it into the pagoda bit by bit.

During this process, Chen Yun was very cautious. After all, this five-colored glazed pagoda was a treasure used by the tribal gods during his lifetime. Its power must be very amazing. If it accidentally rebounds, he is likely to be injured, and even his soul will be severely damaged. .

Therefore, he must be careful.

Fortunately, Chen Yun injected the true energy mixed with divine consciousness into the pagoda without causing any backlash.

And what surprised him was that with the infusion of Yuan Shen's spiritual consciousness, he gradually felt that there was a slight connection between himself and the pagoda.

Although there is no progress bar on the pagoda, Chen Yun can vaguely feel that his consciousness and the pagoda are constantly harmonious, as if he is cultivating "proficiency".

At present, his estimated progress may be less than one thousandth.

Chen Yun is not anxious at all. He has obtained this treasure for so long and it has not been able to play any role. Now that he has seen hope, how can he be anxious about it?

He injected his consciousness bit by bit.

As time went by, around the time of midnight, Chen Yun noticed that the pagoda seemed to have absorbed enough spiritual consciousness and no longer accepted his true energy infusion.

So far, Chen Yun's predicted progress bar is 100% accurate.

"I feel that I can continue to inject spiritual consciousness. Why can't I inject it now?"

Chen Yun felt a little puzzled and secretly guessed: "Is there a certain limit to the amount of spiritual consciousness that the pagoda can receive every day, just like a magical weapon that requires seven or forty-nine days to fully master?"

He thinks this is very likely.

If we estimate according to tonight's progress bar, then in a hundred days, he should be closely connected with the pagoda.

By then, will it be possible to activate this powerful artifact?

Chen Yun still doesn't know this yet, but since the pagoda can be infused with spiritual consciousness to increase tacit understanding, then, what about the Tai Chi Purple Ribbon Treasure Clothes?

He couldn't wait to take out the Tai Chi Purple Ribbon Treasure Clothes.

Immediately, Chen Yun injected the true energy mixed with divine consciousness into the purple ribbon treasure clothes just like before.

A magical scene happened spontaneously!

The Tai Chi Purple Ribbon Treasure Clothes does not require the same "tacit understanding" as the Five-Color Glazed Pagoda. In other words, it also needs to cultivate a "tacit understanding", but the progress bar does not have to be full before it can be used.

As soon as Chen Yun's spiritual consciousness was injected into him, the Tai Chi Purple Ribbon Treasure Clothes turned into a stream of light and was worn on him!
