In the scripture collection room, Xiao Lin's face looked slightly pale, and large beads of sweat kept falling from his forehead, but there was no reaction at all.
After a long time, Xiao Lin opened his eyes, wiped his sweat, and let out a long sigh. The demonic energy is a time bomb, but it cannot be driven out. It seems that it has become integrated with the body and cannot be separated.
"It seems that it can only be resolved with Buddhist methods." After murmuring, Xiao Lin was in a dilemma. Neither Tianjizi nor Nanhu Zhenren had collected Buddhist and Taoist techniques.
Shaolin Temple! It is difficult to find Buddhist techniques, but Buddhist techniques can still be found. I believe that with his intelligence and ability, he will be able to create his own techniques by learning from those techniques.
Through the formation, Xiao Lin could sense that not all the cultivators outside had left. There were still a few people lingering here, and they seemed to have certain expectations for what was inside. Xiao Lin could only curl his lips at this. Now there is no one else in the entire cave except him, but he can't go out yet. Who knows if there are other people besides these people, especially those masters who build the foundation and elixir stage.
Thinking of this, with a thought, a large number of jade slips were taken out from the storage ring, all related to formations. After seeing the power of formations, he became very interested in the ways of formations.
Wu Jizi is a master of weapon refining in the world of cultivation, and his attainments in formations are top-notch. Nearly half of his collection is about formations. After picking out the basic formation jade slips, Xiao Lin directly imprinted them into his mind, such as the Liangyi Formation, the Three Talents Formation, the Four-Phase Formation, etc., and then Entered a state of retreat.
In the blink of an eye, a month passed, and a smile slowly appeared on Xiao Lin's calm face. I don't know if it's due to his interest or his innate aptitude, but he has completely understood nearly a thousand basic formations. If he can master them more, a great formation master in the world of cultivation will be born soon.
What makes him even more happy is that with the help of formations, he can more easily communicate with the world and thus improve his own realm.
"It's time!" Xiao Lin stood up from the futon, put all the used jade slips back on the shelf, and walked out of the scripture room.
Standing at the highest point of Huludao, Xiao Lin was worried. There was no ship around, how could he leave?
Flying with a sword? Xiao Lin shook his head. Although the quality of Can Feng was very high, except for its super attack power, it did not have the characteristics of a magic weapon at all. Flying with a sword would not work at all. Apart from Can Feng, he has no other magic weapon, so what should he do?
At this moment, Xiao Lin inadvertently saw a group of migratory birds returning from the north circling above his head for a while and then landing not far from him. Then he discovered him and was so frightened that he immediately spread his wings and fled. Only one A migratory bird stayed next to him, tilting its head and staring at him.
"Haha" a bright light flashed in Xiao Lin's eyes, and he threw a ball of innate Qi onto the migratory bird. He jumped more than 20 meters into the air with his feet and shouted at the same time: "Gu Youda Crossing the river with a reed, Xiao Lin is flying through the air, so happy!" Just as the voice fell, he tapped his toes lightly on the water, and his whole body leaped out again.
In just over ten minutes, Xiao Lin's feet touched the ground. He looked back at the ripples on the water and felt a surge of pride in his chest: A dozen miles is nothing. One day after another, he will trample the entire world. Underfoot!
Turning his head, he took a deep breath, as if a whale was swallowing water. The spiritual energy of heaven and earth was sucked into his body to replenish the previous consumption. With a tap of his feet, he disappeared by the Taihu Lake.
In order not to attract the attention of secular people, Xiao Lin walked all the way, specifically choosing places with few people. In just half a day, he arrived at the edge of the Yangtze River. Seeing the boats coming and going on the river, Xiao Lin became worried: One mile away No matter how wide it is, it won't stop him, but if he crosses the river at this time, it will definitely cause an uproar.
Forget it, find a place to rest and then cross the river at night! With this thought in his mind, Xiao Lin was about to turn around and leave. At this moment, an old voice came from behind: "Young man, you might as well come and sit here with me!"
"Who?" Xiao Lin turned around and looked around cautiously, but found no one. The residual force in the sea of ??consciousness was already mobilized and ready to take action at any time.
The old voice came again, "Young man, don't be nervous, I have no ill intentions towards you. I have another guest here, you know him too."
It was finally confirmed that the voice came from the river, but who was the acquaintance he mentioned? There is no doubt that the owner of the voice successfully aroused Xiao Lin's interest.
"Old man, please lead the way!"
"You jump directly into the river and you can see it after diving thirty meters." The voice fell and stopped.
Is the Nandu section of the Yangtze River thirty meters deep? With such doubts, Xiao Lin jumped into the river, and the innate true energy running around opened a protective film for him.The river opened up, and then the whole person dived quickly.
In the blink of an eye, he dived more than 20 meters, and Xiao Lin had a vague suspicion in his mind. There were traces of formations around here, but the opponent's techniques were too clever, and he could not identify what formations were used.
At this moment, Xiao Lin's eyes lit up. A cave five meters high appeared in front of him. The river was avoided by the formation, and there were three ancient seals written in Panshui Cave. Judging from the traces outside, at least there were With a history of tens of thousands of years, I was horrified: "If the other party is a person from ten thousand years ago, then"
As soon as Xiao Lin landed in front of the cave, the closed stone door opened with a bang, and a boy of twelve or thirteen years old with handsome features walked out. He slapped him and said crisply: "Taoist, please come inside, my family." The master has been waiting for a long time."
Xiao Lin did not dare to rush forward. Although the other party was only in his teens, he had the perfect cultivation level of Jindan. He also said: "Please lead the way!"
The boy quipped again, and after making a gesture of invitation, he led Xiao Lin deeper into the cave, and at the same time the cave door slowly closed.
After entering the cave, Xiao Lin was shocked. After walking for more than ten meters in the narrow passage, his eyes suddenly opened up. A few hundred miles ahead, there are a few white clouds scattered in the blue sky, and there is no sun; under your feet are dozens of acres of medicinal gardens, covered with herbs, most of which are more than ten thousand years old, such as red fruits and ten thousand years. Ginseng, Ningshencao, Huanhunzhi, etc. After reading "Record of Cultivation Experience", Xiao Lin understood the value of these herbs.
Originally, he thought he was a rich man, but compared with the owner here, Xiao Lin only felt that he was a beggar.
The pure aura slowly rises around the medicine garden, like a fairyland on earth. Taking a deep breath, he felt refreshed.
The aura of heaven and earth here is more than ten times that of Huludao.
"How's it going? It's not bad here, old man!" While Xiao Lin was stunned, an old voice came from beside him. He looked around and saw an old man in his seventies and only 1.6 meters tall who didn't know when to stand. Next to him, there was a woman who came with him, dressed in a fiery red palace dress, noble and elegant, it was Tianfeng who had been separated for only a month. At this time, she was looking at Xiao Lin with a smile.
"I've met senior!" Although it was just the first meeting, Xiao Lin was sure that the other person's cultivation was unfathomable. Even the Eclipse Night, Decepticon, and Lu Youya he had seen were far different from each other.
"Kid, what do you think of my place?" The old man nodded and asked the question just now.
Xiao Lin nodded in wonder and said: "Everything is a masterpiece, its value is immeasurable, and"
The old man seemed to be interested and asked: "And what?"
After taking a deep breath, Xiao Lincai said: "The juniors have little knowledge, so I hope the seniors won't laugh at me. And it seems that this is a separate space!"
The techniques of opening up space have gone beyond the scope of cultivators, and even Xiao Lin doubted that ordinary immortals could not achieve this level. It is precisely because of this that Xiao Lin is not sure.
"Hahahaha" the old man looked very happy, neither denying nor admitting.
He raised his right hand and opened his clenched withered hand, and a pavilion the size of a thumb flew up, then gradually grew in size until it was ten square meters in size and three meters high, then it stopped and slowly flew to the sky above the medicine garden in front of him. Then, the boy climbed up the stone steps and poured a cup of tea for the three of them.
With just one glance, Xiao Lin was overwhelmed by the magic power emanating from the pavilion, and even made him feel dizzy: Immortal weapon! An immortal-level pavilion for drinking tea!
The old man made a gesture of invitation, took the lead in walking up the stone steps to the pavilion and sat down, saying: "This is the tea brewed by Ningshen grass, you are welcome!"
" Ningshen grass is the top herb in the world of cultivation. It is precious and rare. Not only ordinary cultivators, but also masters at the level of loose immortals in the Mahayana stage can only ask for it. Its value is not inferior to that of immortal weapons. The main medicinal effect is to help cultivators condense their minds.
And the old man actually used such precious herbs to make tea. He was hit twice in a row, and Xiao Lin was already a little numb! I couldn't care less. Such good things are not often encountered. I picked up the cup and drank it all in one gulp. Then he closed his eyes and felt the changes in his body. A faint fragrance spread from his mouth, split into two streams and headed towards his Dantian and the sea of ??consciousness in his mind.
The medicine enters the sea of ??consciousness first, and suddenly the calm sea of ??consciousness undergoes earth-shaking changes. The rolling water that seems to be real and imaginary moves towards the phantom in the sky, while the soul opens its big mouth and swallows the water below one by one. The water swallowed into the stomach, and the whole person became more and more solid.
At the same time, in the Dantian, two streams of true energy circulate rapidly along the tendons and veins, as if they were injected with chicken blood. At the same time, a large amount of spiritual energy is inhaled through the acupuncture points, and thenLater transformed into infuriating energy.
After a long time, Xiao Lin opened his eyes, stretched out comfortably, and his eyes became clearer and clearer. He stood up and faced the old man, bowed to the ground and said, "Thank you, senior, for your cultivation!"
The old man just nodded and did not speak. He only turned his gaze to Tianfeng. Only then did Xiao Lin notice that something was wrong with Tianfeng. Her beautiful face looked very pale. Beads of sweat continued to slide down her smooth forehead. The surrounding spiritual energy was billowing from the top of her head, and a huge and majestic wave appeared. The momentum began to spread, and while it was faintly increasing, it seemed extremely unstable.
With just one glance, Xiao Lin could tell that Tianfeng was trying to break through.
"à¦" At this moment, Tianfeng let out a scream that pierced people's hearts. His whole body gradually began to return to normal, and his pale face regained its rosy color. He stood up and bowed to the old man as well.
"Thank you, senior"
The old man smiled and nodded, stroking the gray beard on his chin, and said: "That's your fate. I just bought two children a glass of water, so I can't thank you."
Since the other party said this, Xiao Lin no longer struggled with this issue. Instead, he sat upright and said, "I wonder why the senior summoned the junior to come here?"
The old man gradually put away his smile and said calmly towards the direction of the cave behind him: "Wu Gan, why don't you come out to meet the guests!"
Martial arts? Who? Looking in the direction, a young man of seventeen or eighteen years old came out from there. He was about 1.7 meters tall, with a round face, a wide nose, and a stocky body. He was wearing a short shirt, revealing his strong muscles. muscle.
"Grandpa" Wu Gan reluctantly came to the old man, said hello in a low voice and stopped talking. He looked like he was about to cry without tears, as if he had been greatly wronged.
The old man said helplessly: "This is my grandson Wu Gan. His parents disappeared eight hundred years ago. He grew up with me and has never seen anyone else. Don't be surprised."
Xiao and Lin nodded, but they were thinking about another thing, eight hundred years ago! How old is this old man?
As if he knew what the two of them were thinking, the old man did not explain much and said: "I invite two children here this time because I want to ask you for a favor!"
At this time, Wu Gan intervened and said anxiously: "Grandpa, my grandson doesn't want to leave you, and he will stay with you for the rest of his life!"
The emotional old man wanted Wu Gan to go out with the two of them to see the world, but this was too nonsense. He noticed when Wu Gan came out just now. This Wu Gan has the cultivation level of Jindan Dzogchen. Can he follow them?
The old man gently touched Wu Gan's head and said: "You two must have guessed it. I would like to ask you to take Wu Gan out for training."
After hesitating for a moment, Xiao Lin said: "Forgive me for being honest, brother Wu Gan, with such a high level of cultivation, it seems that he cannot achieve the purpose of training with us. Our cultivation level is really"
"Hahaha" the old man stood up and said: "Old man's own judgment, I also believe that your cultivation will soon surpass Wu Gan. It depends on whether you are willing to do this little favor for me!"
Xiao Lin agreed very much with what the old man said. It's just the Great Perfection of the Golden Elixir. He believes that in a hundred years, he will definitely be able to surpass it. He solemnly said: "Since the senior said so, the junior will not postpone it any more."
??Wu Gan has the cultivation level of Jindan Dzogchen, so how high is the cultivation level of the old man who is a grandfather! He has almost offended the cultivation world in Huludao, and he should make a few powerful friends.
Seeing that Xiao Lin agreed, Tianfeng naturally would not refuse. She has been here for a month, enjoying high-level hospitality like never before. Her cultivation level has soared from the late Xiantian stage to the early stage of Foundation construction, and she owes a big favor.
"Grandpa!" Seeing that his destination was decided, Wu Gan hurriedly grabbed the old man's sleeve and shook it coquettishly.
The old man's face darkened and he scolded: "Don't mess around! You must listen to Xiao Lin and Tianfeng after you go out. If I find you messing around, I will expel you from Panshui Cave, you know!"
"I got it!" Wu Gan knew very well in his heart that no one in the entire Saturn could escape his grandfather's gaze, so he must not take any chances.
Seeing the tears welling up in Wu Gan's eyes, Xiao Lin finally understood why the old man had to let him go out to practice. Cultivation is not about having advanced skills and top magic weapons to survive calamities and rise to the top. The most important thing is to read all the ways of the world and condense it. With an indomitable heart towards the Tao, one can transcend the world and look up to the world.
With this understanding, Xiao Lin felt that the two kinds of Qi in his body were much more active, and the connection between his body and the heaven and earth was further strengthened.
Xiao Lin¡¯s changes did not escape the eyes of the four people, especially the old man, who sighed in his heart and said in just a few words:You can also feel something through the words, it¡¯s so evil. However, when he was only in his twenties, he vaguely had his own Tao. Although his grandson Wu Gan was much higher than Xiao Lin, he was still confused about the Tao. He only hoped that he would be able to do it after going out to practice. Make some progress.
¡¡¡Boundary line¡¡¡¡
In the middle of the night, the old man personally sent Xiao Lin and the three of them to the shore. Looking at the retreating figures, the old man's nose felt sore. The boy next to him saw that his master was so sad and couldn't help but said: "Master, since you are reluctant to let go, why do you want to send the young master away?"
The old man took a deep breath, turned around and said calmly: "Although Xiao Lin's cultivation level is low, he is making rapid progress. If you stay with him, you will soon be able to break through the bottleneck. Alas, Qian'er has been stuck in Dzogchen for almost eighty years. year!¡±
The boy shook his head and said, "Wouldn't it be a huge loss if I passed on the two secrets of "Complete Explanation of Formation" and "Tianxuan Divine Calculation" to them?"
The old man shook his head and said: "You don't understand. Although Xiao Lin's talent and qualifications are high, they are not what I value most. What I value most is his luck!"
"Luck?" The boy tilted his head and thought for a while, but he didn't understand.
"Well, luck! For cultivators, the most important thing is not talent, skills, magic weapons, and pills, but luck. Although the theory of luck is illusory, it does exist. Just like Quan Zhenzi back then, However, when he was more than sixty years old, he formed a golden elixir, but eventually turned into ashes and fell into the world. The root cause is that his luck is too weak. And Xiao Lin is the person with the strongest luck I have ever seen! If Gan'er is with him, he can borrow his luck, and his cultivation path will be much smoother."
