Chapter 87 Breakthrough to the True Dan Realm
Chapter 87 Breakthrough to the True Dan Realm (Second update, please subscribe)
Feng Shaoyu, the leader of the Divine Sword Sect, took the bamboo tube containing information from the elder of the Flying Eagle Hall.
As the leader of a sect, he had experienced so many ups and downs, but at this moment, his hands were trembling slightly.
It seemed as if the information in his hand was of great weight.
The hall was very quiet, and everyone's eyes were fixed on the information with apprehension.
Sect leader Feng Shaoyu took a deep breath to calm his anxious mood, then immediately pulled out the small stopper of the bamboo tube that was sealed with wax, poured out a small roll of paper, carefully opened it and spread it out, revealing the secret text written in small characters on the rope inside.
He opened a booklet and began to decipher it himself.
After the information was deciphered, Sect Leader Feng Shaoyu couldn't help but frown as he looked at the contents of the intelligence.
When everyone saw the sect leader's expression, they were all startled.
After taking a deep breath, Sect Leader Feng Shaoyu read out the contents of the intelligence.
The intelligence content is simple.
"The old Emperor Wu has passed away. The Empress Dowager has temporarily assumed the power of the Emperor Wu. The rebellion in Yujing has been quelled."
After hearing the intelligence, everyone present became serious.
"How could it be that the Empress Dowager temporarily holds the power of the Martial Emperor? Isn't there a Martial Prince?"
"Prince Wu is too young, and his cultivation is not strong enough to convince the public. However, isn't it a bit inappropriate to let the Empress Dowager take charge of the power of the Martial Emperor?"
"Yes, I heard that the old Martial Emperor who passed away had experienced the Yin Empress Rebellion. Didn't he know that letting the Grand Empress Dowager take charge of the Martial Emperor's power might cause huge hidden dangers?"
"The old Martial Emperor must have had his reasons for doing this."
"Why is there no information about Master Uncle and his men in the intelligence?"
"Yes, how are the uncles and the others doing now?"
People at the scene began to talk about it.
Although this information is not very good, at least it is not the worst.
At least it means that the rebellious forces have failed. Even if Dachang will be in chaos for a while, it should be able to make a smooth transition.
As for the future, that is unknown.
With the example of Empress Yin's rebellion more than two hundred years ago, everyone present had little confidence in the Empress Dowager's temporary control of Emperor Wu's power.
Unfortunately, this information is too simple and there is no way to know the specific details. We can only wait for follow-up.
At least everyone can have a good rest.
Chen bell tower.
Li Qian was holding a large book and studying it carefully.
But, I just can’t understand it at all.
This big guy was obtained from the black iron ring space. It was made of unknown animal skin and was rough and sturdy.
However, the text above is not popular at all and has little relevance to current texts.
He wondered if this was the writing of a demon?
"I wonder if there are any records of this kind of text in the library of the Divine Sword Sect?"
Li Qian thought to himself.
Even if he wanted to decipher the text now, he had no idea where to start.
With a sigh, Li Qian could only carry the big thing into the house, pretending to put it away, but actually put it directly into the black iron ring on his finger.
Arriving at the top of the bell tower, Li Qian looked at the condition of the hourglass and began to prepare.
When the time came, he grabbed the striking rod and slammed it against the clock.
Dong Dong Dong Dong Dong.
When the clear bell sounded, Li Qian felt as if his whole body was bathed in the sound of the bell, and he felt very comfortable all over.
So he held the sword in one hand and a piece of Yuanshi in the other, and began to practice.
After finishing the practice, Li Qian felt that his progress in cultivation had improved a little, and a satisfied smile appeared on his face.
The speed of cultivation is getting faster and faster.
Standing on the bell tower, Li Qian suddenly saw his master Zhou Buping walking up from the foot of the mountain.
Master hasn't returned since he went down the mountain yesterday afternoon.
This is something that has rarely happened since Master came to Chen Zhongtai.
Li Qian jumped off the bell tower and waited for his master to come up at the intersection.
"There are results from Yujing."
Zhou Buping said as he walked.
"Master, what's the result?"
Li Qian's heart moved, remembering that the sect had sent a large number of experts to Yujing before.
Zhou Buping briefly explained the situation.
"The old Emperor Wu has passed away, and the Empress Dowager is in charge of the power of the Emperor Wu. Isn't there a Prince Wu?"
Li Qian asked curiously.
"It should be that the old Emperor Wu was worried that Prince Wu would not be able to control the world after he succeeded to the throne, so he let the Empress Dowager take the throne temporarily."
Zhou Buping said: "Of course, this is just our guess. We will have to wait until the people who went to Yujing come back to find out what exactly happened."
"So, our Divine Sword Sect should have made the right bet?"
Li Qian thought for a while and said.
Since the rebellion had not succeeded, the Divine Sword Sect did not have to worry about being liquidated.
This is a major event involving the succession of power in the Chang Dynasty. The losing party will inevitably be liquidated.
"It's too early to talk about this now. However, the situation is still good for now."
Zhou Buping shook his head.
The one who took the throne this time was the Empress Dowager.
"It's okay for now."
Li Qian secretly breathed a sigh of relief. As long as the Divine Sword Sect was fine, he would be fine too.
Next, he just needs to practice step by step to improve his strength. Even if there are changes in the future, he will have the strength to protect himself and do something for the Divine Sword Sect.
After all, the fact that he was able to practice peacefully on the Chenzhongtai was largely due to the fact that the Divine Sword Sect provided him with protection.
If you gain something, you have to give something.
He is not an ungrateful person and he knows how to repay kindness.
"Master, are there any other types of text recorded in the library of the Divine Sword Sect?"
Li Qian suddenly asked.
"I don't know if there is a library, but there is a retired elder in my Divine Sword Sect. He comes from a family of scholars and is extremely obsessed with the study of foreign texts. I heard that he has collected a lot of books on foreign texts. If you are interested, you can go find this elder."
Zhou Buping said.
Then he told Li Qian about Elder Gu’s situation.
Li Qian wrote it down.
The next day, after ringing the Chen Bell and finishing his training, Li Qian went down the mountain and prepared to go to Linjian City to find the ancient elder.
He even tore off a page from a large book and took it with him.
If anyone asked him where this piece of paper came from, he could just say he got it by chance.
When he arrived in Linjian City, he first went to see Li Mo, and then according to the address provided by his master, he came to the place where the ancient elder lived in retirement.
It was a big house with the words "Gu Fu" written on it.
After Li Qian introduced himself, the servants of the Gu Mansion quickly led Li Qian to the living room and served him tea.
Not long after, a white-haired old man with a scholarly air walked out.
"You are Zhou Laogui's disciple. What do you want from me?"
Elder Gu looked at Li Qian and asked curiously.
Li Qian bowed quickly and said, "Elder Gu, I accidentally got a page of a strange text whose origin is unknown. I heard that you are proficient in various strange texts, so I came here to ask for your advice."
"I do know a little about different texts, but I don't dare to claim to be proficient in them."
Elder Gu stroked his beard.
Li Qian took out the page of animal skin paper directly from the package he was carrying.
When Elder Gu saw it, his eyes suddenly lit up. He walked over quickly, took it from Li Qian, and examined it carefully.
"This should be made from the tanned skin of an exotic animal. Unfortunately, the processing technology is not up to standard, so it is a bit too rough and crude."
He fumbled with the parchment and muttered to himself, "There are also these variant texts. It seems to be barbarian text. No, it is more complex and more primitive than barbarian text."
Then he looked at it carefully again, earnestly identifying the lines of rough and almost aesthetically pleasing words.
"Wow, this is actually a demonic language that is even older than the barbarian language."
Elder Gu finally recognized it.
Although he didn't recognize 99% of the characters, he had studied a few specific characters and had a deep impression on them.
"Where did you get this thing?" Elder Gu couldn't help but ask.
"Elder Gu, I got it by accident."
Li Qian said.
"Such a complete demon text is really rare. I'm afraid it can only be found in a very small number of ancient sects and the royal library of Yujing."
Elder Gu’s eyes glowed.
He loved exotic texts most in his life.
After retiring, he devoted all his energy to researching and finding alternative texts.
I am particularly obsessed with this so-called most mysterious demon text.
It’s a pity that he has access to very few books on demons, and even if there are any, they are often just brief mentions.
"Senior, can you understand?"
Li Qian couldn't help but ask as he saw Elder Gu couldn't let go of it.
"Haha, young man, you think too highly of me. I can recognize less than one percent of what is written on this piece of beast skin paper. As for understanding it, that is a fantasy."
Elder Gu smiled and said, "But, give me some time. I am confident that I can research some of it."
"Then I'll trouble Elder Gu."
Li Qian said quickly.
"No trouble, no trouble at all."
Elder Gu waved his hands repeatedly, very excited.
After all, being able to study a complete ancient book on demonic writing was something he had never dared to dream of.
So, Li Qian left the page of the ancient book with demonic writing and let Elder Gu study it slowly.
Anyway, there are quite a few such ancient books with strange writings in his black iron ring. A mere page would not have much impact, not to mention that he has already memorized them all.
The masters sent by the Divine Sword Sect to Yujing returned one after another, bringing back more detailed information about the rebellion in Yujing.
The Divine Sword Sect suffered a lot of losses in the Yujing Rebellion this time. The master of Xuanyang Peak was severely injured and had to retire. A sword user died of his injuries. In addition, three powerful elders and eleven ordinary elders died. As for the injured, there were even more.
The most important thing is that Xiao Tianren, the only member of the Divine Sword Sect, was also seriously injured and stayed in Yujing to recuperate.
The Divine Sword Sect suffered such a huge loss, one can imagine how brutal the Yujing rebellion was.
It is said that in the battle, more than a dozen celestial beings fell from both sides, including top-level celestial beings, and even more were injured.
Time flies.
In the blink of an eye, one year has passed.
This year is destined to be a turbulent year.
As the master of Xuanyang Peak had to retire due to serious injuries and a sword master had fallen, two true disciples in the True Disciple Hall stepped forward and took over the positions of the master of Xuanyang Peak and the sword master.
More than a dozen elders came one after another. The elders with real power were injured and retired, and many core disciples who had reached the master level were promoted to elders.
There are also elders who have reached the level of Grand Master and have participated in the suppression of the rebellion in Yujing. They have been promoted to powerful elders with sufficient merit.
Moreover, the Divine Sword Sect held another true disciple selection and added a true disciple from the younger generation of inner sect disciples.
Outside the Divine Sword Sect, things were also turbulent. The aftermath of the Yujing Rebellion was far from over, it had only just begun.
None of this has anything to do with Li Qian.
Apart from the inner sect missions twice a year, he has never left the Divine Sword Sect.
I practice by ringing the bell every day and make rapid progress.
late at night.
On the clock tower.
Li Qian slowly opened his eyes and let out a long breath.
He had an idea and summoned the system interface to check the latest information.
Host: Li Qian.
Cultivation: Innate True Essence (99/100 in the later stage).
Sacrificial vessel: Chen bell (French 4453/10000).
Martial arts: Sword Stab Fist (perfect), Heartless Sword Technique (perfect), Immaculate Holy Body (great success 77/100), Soul-Chasing Sword Technique (perfect).
Martial Intention: Unintentional Sword Intention (Truth 42/100).
Secret skills: Wanhua sword energy, blood burning technique.
"My cultivation is finally reaching the True Dan realm."
Li Qian muttered to himself.
In addition, the speed at which the Immaculate Holy Body is improved is also extremely astonishing.
It has reached the great success 77.
The reason why it was so fast was that he now absorbed the demon stone three times a day, and the amount absorbed each time also increased a lot.
At this rate, he suspected that it would take at most half a year to perfect the Immaculate Holy Body.
What happens when the Immaculate Body is fulfilled?
He was very excited.
Whoosh!
Li Qian put on a black cloak, moved his body, flew into the air, left the Chenzhong Tower, and flew towards the distance.
To break through the True Dan realm, you must go somewhere else.
This time, he chose to stay away from the Divine Sword Sect.
Anyway, he has Yuanshi, so he doesn't have to worry about the insufficient concentration of Yuan Qi of heaven and earth.
The vital energy contained in the Yuan Stone is extremely rich and pure. He only used less than four Yuan Stones in his practice this year.
There are hundreds of such Yuanshi in the black iron ring.
In a deep mountain dozens of miles away from the Divine Sword Gate.
The trees are dense and there are no villages around.
The only drawback is that the concentration of heaven and earth energy is much lower than that of Chen Zhongtai.
But it doesn’t matter, he has the Yuanshi to help him break through.
Li Qian sat cross-legged on a stone.
He held a piece of Yuanshi in his palm.
"let's start."
He took a deep breath and immediately practiced the Wuxin Sword Technique. True energy surged in his body and his pure holy body began to absorb the vital energy between heaven and earth.
The vital energy is surging and gathering.
The Yuan Stone between his palms released a large amount of pure Yuan Qi, which was absorbed into his body and combined with his Qi, blood and spirit to become an even purer true essence.
As his true energy increased, he could feel his meridians filling up and aching.
It's like breaking through a bottleneck.
In the Qi Hai Dantian, the six true essences vibrated violently, and the originally stable six-line aura structure disintegrated on its own. More true essences gathered and gradually formed the seventh true essence.
However, this is far from over.
As the seven true energies circulated and changed, they gradually combined to form a stable seven-star aura.
The most important thing is that a strange crystal was born at the core of the Seven Star Aura.
“Is this the real pill?”
Li Qian sensed the crystals in his Qi Hai Dan Tian.
This crystal pill is extremely terrifying.
It looks only the size of a sesame seed, but it contains more than 90% of his innate true energy.
"It seems that only the Seven Star Aura can compress the True Essence into a True Pill."
Li Qian basically understood the mysteries of aura at different levels.
The subsequent Bagua aura and Nine Palaces aura will make the condensation of the true elixir more thorough.
Until the final transformation of the true elixir is completed, and the celestial being is achieved
It's not easy.
Finally broke through to the True Dan realm.
Li Qian opened his eyes and couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief.
After the true elixir was formed, his strength increased rapidly again.
True Dan is not on the same level as True Yuan.
It's like the difference between true qi and true essence.
No, it should be said bigger.
