Chapter 74 Melancholy Doppelganger
Chapter 74 Melancholy Doppelganger
"The true effect of the Pagoda's exquisite body will only be revealed after you advance to the Treasure Body Realm and comprehend the skills and magical powers."
"Don't think I'm a good strategist now. In fact, you are digging a big hole for yourself."
"In the future, when you are able to practice martial arts and magical powers, I hope you will not regret it."
"Okay, I won't waste my time talking to you. Just go ahead."
After the clone said this, the whole world began to shatter.
"Not yet~" Xu Chen couldn't help but say.
"The battle of blood and energy, the power of fists and weapons, I really don't want to die in this, not to mention that you put poison on the knife."
"There's no need to do this to deal with a cultivator like me who doesn't know any magic or supernatural powers."
The world was completely shattered, and Xu Chen's soul was transferred to an unknown space.
In a huge monastic academy, Xu Chen possessed a little boy.
The little boy was wearing linen clothes, had a thin face, and a bony body that looked as if it could be blown down by a gust of wind.
It was already autumn, and the little boy and his classmates were practicing hand seals in the cold wind.
"Qian, Kan, Gen, Zhen, Zhong, Xun, Li, Kun, and Dui, the nine basic seal gestures must be practiced to the core."
"The 81 minor seals below the nine basic seals are even more important. If you are not proficient in them, even if you have spiritual power in your body, you will not be able to perform magic."
"The foundation is very important. Practice well. Six seals in one breath is considered qualified, 12 seals is excellent, 21 seals is a genius, and more than 30 seals are considered a genius."
A middle-aged monk in Taoist robes walked among the group of children, explaining the seal method with a rather perfunctory attitude.
Even so, both the child possessed by Xu Chen and the other children listened carefully, afraid of missing a word.
In the following days, the little boy practiced seal techniques during the day and a technique called Nalingshu at night.
In just one month, the little boy mastered the twelve seals in one breath and released his first spell.
At this time, the little boy was noticed by the middle-aged monk who taught him and was accepted as his disciple because of his excellent performance.
Food, clothing, housing and transportation have improved visibly.
"Fire control."
The little boy formed twelve seals in one breath, a flame appeared in front of him, and then turned into a bird and flew towards the wooden target in the distance.
"boom!"
There was a slight explosion, and the wooden target turned slightly black, with signs of burning.
"The coordination between spiritual power and seals is not that good, but it is still very good among peers."
"You are too weak, and the effect of learning the Soul Gathering Technique is too poor."
A book with the words "Pagoda Linglong Body" on the cover was placed in front of the little boy.
"This is the secret method of body training that I shamelessly asked the school for. It is helpful for practicing the five elements magic and can also strengthen one's own qi and blood."
"It suits you very well. Practice well and don't let me down."
The little boy was somewhat moved and picked up the book on the Pagoda Linglong Body Skills, then knelt down directly in front of the middle-aged monk.
"You don't have to do that. If you can become famous through cultivation, it will also bring honor to me."
In Xu Chen's eyes, the following time became the rise of a genius.
The little boy learned the exquisite body of the pagoda, the art of absorbing spirits and various magic spells faster and faster, and his own strength became stronger and stronger.
Three years later, in the competition among various colleges, the little boy used hand seals to perform his self-created Five Elements spell, Fire, Wood and Dragon, and won the championship.
On the day he won the championship, the little boy practiced the exquisite pagoda body, and a ten-foot-high exquisite pagoda appeared faintly behind him.
His soul was separated from this world, and Xu Chen returned to the Holy White Space.
At this time, although Xu Chen felt his energy and blood surging, he always felt like something was missing.
So consciousness returns to the original body.
At this time, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth seemed to be summoned and gathered towards Xu Chen.
Feeling this, Xu Chen quickly sat up, and the shadow of the exquisite pagoda appeared behind him. The exquisite pagoda had been practicing for a whole day, and Xu Chen felt that his blood and qi were full.
"I also learned a lot of good things this time."
Xu Chen habitually formed seals with his hands and performed the most basic fire control technique.
After completing the seal, I felt a sense of being pulled away from my body. In the end, I didn't draw anything and the fire control technique was not released successfully.
"It seems that I don't have spiritual power. I need to wait until I reach the Treasure Body Realm." Xu Chen said regretfully.
In the world of perception, he learned a large number of five elements spells and also created many spells of his own.
On the training ground at home, feeling his own strength, Xu Chen's face showed surprise.
"The power of one dragon and five tigers is indeed a proper Qi and blood foundation-building method. It actually increased my Qi and blood power by more than two tigers."
In addition, Xu Chen also felt that there was a special power contained in his own blood and qi. It felt like it was the special power that merged into his blood and qi after absorbing spiritual power.
"Keep up the good work and continue practicing."
At this moment, Xu Chen was full of energy.
"Since this method of building a Qi and blood foundation is easy to master, let's first master it to accumulate Qi and blood power."
Xu Chen returned home and took out the remaining Qi and Blood Foundation Building Methods. Finally, he focused his attention on a five-shaped jade slip of Qi and Blood Foundation Building Methods.
Because the Five Elements Body is similar to the Pagoda's exquisite body, Xu Chen feels that he can practice it faster.
After deciding to practice the Five Elements Body, Xu Chen returned to the Holy White Space.
This time he pushed open the silver door of the Star Body Building Method.
It is dark, deep and silent, with the stars twinkling in the distance.
The clone sat cross-legged in the darkness, staring blankly at the sea of stars in the distance.
Before Xu Chen could say anything, his clone spoke.
"Look at the sea of stars in the distance. Doesn't it look like the starry sky you couldn't reach when you were a child?"
“Even though there is light, it cannot save the present darkness.”
“Every star radiates endless light and heat, but I am millions of miles away from the stars.”
“When I needed it, there was nothing I could do.”
"When I had the strength to touch it, I still couldn't do anything."
"Tell me, am I a waste?"
The clone's voice was haggard and hoarse, like a young man who was deeply depressed and had suicidal tendencies.
For some reason, Xu Chen felt that this clone could deal with himself without any fight.
"Can you come by?"
"Why don't you go and see Chanbian Sanfa? He's a caring and healing big brother who may be able to cure your depression." Xu Chen couldn't help but say.
"I'm useless. I can't do anything."
The clone murmured softly, looked at the brilliant sea of stars in the distance, and waved his palm casually.
A powerful force hit Xu Chen directly.
"boom!!"
Just like being hit by a high-speed train, Xu Chen turned into a bloody mist.
Consciousness incarnates in the Holy White Space.
He looked at the golden gate and then at the silver gate.
"Deep depression plus neurosis is better than not talking."
After seeing the gap, Xu Chen gave up, his consciousness returned to his body, and he practiced the Five Elements Body with peace of mind.
With the experience of practicing the Pagoda Linglong Body, he was able to master the Five Elements Body in just 10 days.
