Chapter 251: Black Jade Qilin, Long Xinglie
Chapter 251: Black Jade Qilin, Long Xinglie
"Wan Zhuliu's disciples are coming..."
Inside the cabin, the Scarlet Flame Dharma King paced slowly with a subtle look on his face, and suddenly turned back to look at Yu Banzhou:
"If I remember correctly, Wan Zhuliu only has one disciple? Isn't he afraid that this disciple will die on Hengshan Road?"
"Dragon King, you..."
Yu Banzhou's heart skipped a beat and his face turned pale.
Who is King Zhenwu?
Among the twelve gods on the list, King Zhenwu Wan Zhuliu is at the top, the unshakable number one in the world in the past sixty years, and his magic sword that subdues demons, intimidates the world.
He is the only unparalleled figure in the world whose hands are stained with the blood of earthly immortals.
"He's the disciple of King Zhenwu, you can't touch him!"
"fart!"
The Scarlet Flame Dharma King frowned and interrupted: "When did I ever say I would attack his disciple?"
"Then you?"
Yu Banzhou breathed a sigh of relief, with cold sweat running down his forehead.
The Scarlet Flame Dharma King stood with his hands behind his back and asked to himself, "There are still three deputy hall masters in Zhenwu Hall who have not moved, but Wan Zhuliu chose to send his own disciples out. What do you think he wants to do?"
"This, I don't know..."
Yu Banzhou shook his head. His understanding of the King of Zhenwu was limited to legends and intelligence. How could he guess his thoughts?
"Longhu Temple has been dominating Hengshan for more than 2,000 years. Even if Wan Zhuliu came here himself, he might not be able to gain an advantage. What's the point of sending a disciple here?"
The Scarlet Flame Dharma King thought for a long time, then asked:
"During the months since I was away, has the headquarters sent any messages?"
"The headquarters did not give any other instructions, but I took the initiative to ask. I heard that the leader went to the coast of the East China Sea again. It is said that the Elephant King and the Eagle King also accompanied him..."
Yu Banzhou replied.
"Are you looking for the spirit turtle that carries the palace again?"
The Scarlet Flame Dharma King had a subtle look on his face: "He brought people with him. It seems that the leader is very angry because he couldn't figure out the answer twice."
"Dragon King, do you mean that the leader is going here to predict the fate of the Sea-Splitting Mysterious Whale Hammer?"
Yu Banzhou's heart was slightly moved.
"nature."
The Scarlet Flame Dharma King was somewhat amused: "In the world, there are very few methods that can predict the fate of the Heavenly Destiny Mysterious Soldiers, but it does exist, they are just not accurate."
"What exactly is the Heavenly Destiny Mysterious Soldier? Even the leader can't figure it out?"
Seeing that King Chiyan seemed to be in a good mood, Yu Banzhou asked carefully.
It is widely said that the most sophisticated divination methods in the world are all in the Divine Religion, and he deeply agrees with this.
Different from those martial arts masters in the underworld, the divination they teach is a ritual.
Rituals come from the gods. All rituals are just appearances. Behind all the incredible things that can be accomplished by performing rituals is the power of the gods.
What man cannot calculate, God can.
"All things have spirits, including the heaven and earth. It is said that these twelve Heavenly Profound Soldiers were bred by the heaven and earth, and contain the spirits of the heaven and earth, so they have unfathomable power."
The Scarlet Flame Dharma King had a deep understanding of the Heavenly Luck Mysterious Soldiers. He was once only one step away from mastering the Dragon-Tiger Health Furnace.
But he didn't say much, just one sentence:
"This is about the Heavenly Destiny Mysterious Soldiers. Even if the leader holds those kinds of grand sacrifices, it won't mean anything. But if the 'grand sacrifice' includes the temple-carrying spirit turtle, it may not be the case. That spirit turtle..."
Yu Banzhou listened attentively, but the Red Flame Dharma King's voice was so soft that he did not hear it. When he raised his head, the Red Flame Dharma King's hand had already landed on his shoulder.
With a "pop" sound, Yu Banzhou's face turned pale and all the energy in his body poured out.
The flickering figure of the Scarlet Flame Dharma King suddenly became much more stable, and he nodded with satisfaction:
"Longhu Temple is not a good place. Qin Shixian must have known this, so he fled here... Well, don't get close to Hengshan City. Just pass this news to Zhenwu Hall. Then, someone will naturally go to verify it!"
"Yes!"
……
……
Huhu~
The autumn rain is very light, and the wind blows across the Longhu Mountains, washing away the slight heat.
"Cool!"
Li Yuan's body shook, his internal energy surged, and the wind and rain in the sky were shaken away.
He stepped forward, pushing with one hand to the left and grabbing with the other hand to the right. Visible air currents gathered in front of him. His arms danced like a big spider weaving a web, engulfing all the air currents in the yard.
boom!
He spread his hands apart, and the air current immediately dispersed with the wind and rain.
Li Yuan's movements were not violent, but each and every one of them contained tremendous strength. With the naked eye, it was visible that veins beneath his skin were rising like dragons and snakes, as if a layer of iron armor covered his body.
As the muscles and bones of the whole body are relaxed, the sound of blood flowing directly out of the body, and the sound of internal energy being released is like the whistling of a strong wind.
"Click~"
At a certain moment, there was a loud explosion inside Li Yuan's body, followed by a continuous and long sound of bones rubbing against each other.
"The progress of cultivating the Ten Thousand Blade Spirit Dragon Body has improved a lot..."
Li Yuan slowly stopped his movement. He stretched out his arms, and without much force, scars and textures like those left by a sword appeared on his skin.
Like the Shenzu Sutra, this unique horizontal training technique is divided into seven levels. Every time a level is broken through, some scar-like textures will appear on the body.
"After learning the Dragon Zen Diamond Sutra, I can actually speed up the progress of other horizontal martial arts. The unique skills created by the grandmaster are indeed extraordinary."
The autumn rain was heavy, but Li Yuan stood in the rain without seeming to be affected.
After more than four months of hard training, mainly with the nourishment of various elixirs, his internal energy was still not deep, but under the circulation, it could barely make it immune to wind and rain.
As long as he didn't do anything, he felt he could stand in the rain for a whole day without getting his clothes wet.
"Rainwater is fine, but what about crossbow arrows? I don't think it will work. It consumes a lot of internal energy to resist arrows..."
Bathing in the autumn rain, Li Yuan was in high spirits.
After arriving at the Longhu Temple, apart from some unpleasantness on the first day, he did not say that he was like a fish in water, but he was quite comfortable.
The Longhu Temple does not have any restrictions on inner disciples. They only have one or two tasks a year, and they can pay to hire someone to do it. Other than that, no one will care even if they stay indoors all day.
He had long been accustomed to forging iron, practicing martial arts, and meditating every day, and even enjoyed it.
"With my current internal energy, I can already try to open up the meridians."
Li Yuan stretched out his hand and caught a few drops of rain.
He was already very familiar with the various stages of the meridian opening practice.
To open up the meridians does not mean to open up the meridians in the human body, but to penetrate deep into the body and outline an extremely complex network of meridians between the tendons, bones, skin, flesh, limbs and bones on the basis of the two major circulations of Qi and blood, and internal strength.
Only when the meridians are fully developed can the blood vessels be fully unblocked.
Many of the most superior secret techniques and deadly secret moves in the unique martial arts often have to reach this stage before they can unleash their true power.
For example, the Shenzu Meridian, with the meridians in the foot complete, the burst of movement can be three times faster. The killing move of the Dousha Hammer, and even the practice of the Longchan Vajra Posture and the Wanren Linglong Body, all require the involvement of Qi channels.
"Realm is very important. When Old Han changed his form, he was already able to fight against masters who had achieved Tongmai. However, his unique skills were still in their infancy, and he was only considered complete after reaching Tongmai..."
Li Yuan closed his eyes slightly. In the past four months, he had not made any breakthroughs in his method of worshipping the gods, but under the nourishment of the black whale's energy, his mental power had increased many times. Even without the blessing of the five-step spirit snake skin belt, he could already achieve a certain degree of inner vision.
With the help of the spiritual power, the inner vision is quite clear.
Beneath the membrane are two complex circulatory networks. Qi, blood, and internal strength circulate around the waist, abdomen, and heart, like two layers of inner armor, protecting the tendons, bones, and internal organs.
"The construction of the Qi channel is related to the martial arts learned. If I want to build the Qi channel, I have two choices. One is the Hundred Beasts Thunder Dragon, and the other is the Dragon Zen Diamond Sutra."
Li Yuan muttered to himself.
The Qi channels need to be perfected, but the more perfect it is, the better. The more complex the Qi channels are, the more internal Qi is needed to support them. Therefore, most warriors have their own emphasis.
For example, for the Thunder Dragon, the emphasis is on the spine, while for the Fighting Hammer, the emphasis is on the arms, waist and abdomen.
"In theory, the more complete the Qi channels are, the more martial arts one can possess..."
Li Yuan had made up his mind.
With the Weapon Control Scroll in hand, he was destined to not be able to specialize in any one martial art, no matter if it was the Hundred Beasts Thunder Dragon or the Dragon Zen Diamond Sutra. At least, he had to leave room for the 'Sea-Splitting Mysterious Whale Diagram'.
In this case, he naturally felt that the more comprehensive the better.
"Well, it's better to be complete. Otherwise, I always feel there are loopholes... I have to ask someone for details. Alas, my cheap master hasn't come out yet."
Li Yuan stood in the rain for most of the night, practicing various martial arts and standing meditation many times, but there were no thunders.
"The practice of Tiger Leopard Thunder Sound is too troublesome... Who knows, I might even have to go to the 'Health Preservation Secret Realm'."
When Li Yuan opened his eyes, the night rain had stopped and the sky was turning pale.
Call ~
With a light shake, Li Yuan got rid of the moisture on his body and went back to his room to take a nap. Before daybreak, he put on his clothes, got up, and started cooking with swift hands and feet.
On the day he came out of the health secret realm, Li Yuan went to the Internal Affairs Hall and bought back all of his 300 kilograms of spiritual rice for this year.
A pound of spiritual rice costs one or two taels of gold. The price of spiritual rice is very expensive, but Li Yuan feels that it is worth the money. The medicinal effect of spiritual rice is mellow and mild, and you can eat a lot of it.
In other words, it increased his progress in martial arts training.
"Squeak~"
The red corn hasn't even come out of the pot yet, but the little mouse has already poked its head out of the hole in the wall, drooling all over the floor.
On the windowsill, the 'Cat Ancestor' gave it a look of disdain, but couldn't help but look over, licking his lips in an anthropomorphic manner, the aroma of the spiritual rice was too strong.
"Come, try them all."
Master Li Dao was in a good mood. He took out two small bowls, filled half a bowl, and gave each to the cat and the mouse.
The little mouse couldn't wait and wanted to dive into the bowl, but the little tiger just glanced at him and then slowly started to taste it.
"Really good stuff."
Li Yuan squatted outside the door. The spiritual rice was sweet and delicious, and did not need any side dishes. After finishing a bowl, his body felt warm.
"Squeak~"
The little mouse ate until he was full, but he still looked at him eagerly.
"greedy."
Li Yuan clicked on it and put away the remaining spiritual rice. The temptation of spiritual rice was too great and he was afraid that if he was not careful, the little guy would eat himself to death.
"Take good care of your home."
After giving instructions, Li Yuan pulled out two weapons from the pile of weapons in the yard and walked towards Chungang Peak.
……
"Uncle Li is here."
"Uncle Master, has my Qiushui Sword been repaired?"
"Uncle Li, this is the iron material you need..."
At Chungang Peak, quite a few people gathered around Li Yuan's forging platform. Most of them were Chungang Duo's disciples who came to watch him forge iron, while a few came to ask him to forge or repair weapons.
Li Yuan responded with a smile, accepting all the offers and taking in more than ten weapons of various types.
There are no weaklings in the inner sect of Dragon and Tiger. At a glance, the weapons control effects of these inner sect disciples are all top-notch secrets, or even unique skills.
It covers the twelve rudders of Longyin and Huntian Halls.
when!
After a casual greeting, Li Yuan immersed himself in his blacksmithing.
During these four months, his attainments in weapon forging have further improved. Although he is still a little behind Old Lei Tou, he has become a master weapon forger.
The several famous and top-quality instruments he created were all top-quality products of their class, otherwise they would not have attracted so many people just by offering them for free.
In front of the forge, a flame was blazing.
Li Yuan was concentrating on forging iron and repairing various weapons. He had plenty of energy and great skills. In addition, he had the support of seven forging hammers of various grades, so his movements were smooth and extremely fast.
At the end of the day, not only were six or seven weapons repaired, but the rare iron materials collected were also tempered.
"call!"
As the sun set, Li Yuan slowly put down the forging hammer. Fine beads of sweat instantly poured out from his body, and all the pills and spiritual rice he had taken during the day were digested.
"The Bingdao Fighting Hammer, the Ancient Elephant Six-Shaped Hammer, oh, and the Seven Star Palace Wanchuan's Jinglong Hammer Technique? Being able to integrate so many hammer techniques into one, and to wield them as he wishes, Junior Brother Li's talent is truly excellent!"
Li Yuan wiped the sweat off his forehead and looked up. The person who spoke was standing outside the forge.
'This guy is really flamboyant!'
This thought popped into Li Yuan's mind the first time he saw that person.
The person who was speaking was extremely tall, at least two meters away, with a well-proportioned and slender body, and was covered in black armor. Even from more than a hundred meters away, one could feel his fiery gaze.
At dusk, it shines like a torch.
"What is this senior brother's name?"
Li Yuan narrowed his eyes slightly, but he had already guessed the identity of the person.
"Long Xinglie."
The tall young man walked over slowly, still looking at Li Yuan:
"Incorporate the Dragon Zen Vajra Posture into blacksmithing. Blacksmithing is practicing martial arts. Junior Brother Li is really diligent."
The son of dragon and tiger, Long Xinglie!
This was Li Yuan’s first thought, and the second was, this person is so dazzling!
[Black Jade Kylin Armor (Level 7)]
[…The armor is made of the ‘Rare Thunder Iron’ from the Wind and Thunder Valley, mixed with the bones, flesh and skin of the Black Jade Kylin. It has been tempered by thunder and fire for a thousand years, and nurtured by many Grandmaster-level warriors for a hundred years. It has become magical…]
[Control conditions: Qilin body, thirteen spirit forms, and ultimate level of horizontal training]
[Control Effect: Level 7 (Light Gold): Auspicious Beast Qilin, Thunderous Thunder
Level 6 (Yellow): Horizontal Training Talent, Immune to Lightning and Fire, Qilin Body]
Divine-level armor!
The dazzling golden light made Li Yuan a little dazed, but he quickly reacted and bowed:
"Li Yuan greets Senior Brother."
In the sixty years of Longhu Temple, there have been only six true disciples. The status of true disciples in the sect is no less than that of the deputy hall masters. And this Longhu Taoist is known as the invincible Longhu Taoist in Jiazi.
His status is no lower than that of the nine hall masters of Dragon and Tiger!
