Chapter 415 Heavy Snow, Wind and Cloud

Chapter 415 Heavy Snow, Wind and Cloud (Corrected Yi Xingshu)
On the gray stone platform, something flickered.

The Weapon Control Scroll covered the stone platform like a star map. The surroundings were dark, like a bottomless abyss, which made people feel frightened at the sight of it.

Li Yuan looked inside through the archway. It was pitch black without any light.

[Walking through the secluded area: You can walk in the "secluded area"]

Reaching out to take the Sea-Splitting Black Whale Hammer from the Star Map, Li Yuan was very curious:

"What exactly is this Netherworld? Where does it lead to?"

Li Yuan muttered to himself.

He had heard the word "secluded realm" from three different places.

The Long Corridor is one of them, the only twelfth-level control effect "Walking to the Mysterious Places" in the Sea-Splitting Black Whale Hammer, and the "Golden Scales Chapter of Worshiping Gods in the Eight Directions Temple" in Emperor Qian's hand when he listened to the sound last time.

“It’s very deep.”

Taking another look at the bottomless corridor, Li Yuan muttered to himself.

After a long time, he put down the Black Whale Hammer and looked at the Pure Yang Dragon Scale Armor. The Guidao treasure refining technique was indeed effective, but the blood of Taoist Nie also had a great impact.

"Pure Yang Qi."

Li Yuan thought in his heart that this condition was not difficult for him to meet. Many days ago, he had already comprehended the two unique skills of "Pure Yang Finger" and "Jingtao Palm" from the Jingtao Palm form diagram.

Pure Yang refers to great success, which can naturally meet the conditions.

"The body of the fire dragon should be the thirteen spiritual forms? The Mirage Dragon Belt cannot be controlled for the time being, but the body of the fire dragon can be changed first..."

Master Li Dao's mobility is amazing. It is said that he has a lot of talent. These days, he has temporarily put aside the comprehension of several magical skills, and has focused on promoting middle and lower-level martial arts, and has also changed his four forms.

In addition, preparations are also being made to control the Belt of the Mirage Dragon.

Of the three conditions for controlling this top-grade magic weapon, the shape of a spirit dragon, the transformation of a dragon snake, and the shape of wind and cloud, he only lacks the shape of wind and cloud.

"The form of heaven and earth is truly difficult to comprehend."

Since he had accumulated talents, Li Yuan had hardly ever encountered any martial arts that were difficult to master. No matter whether it was a unique skill or a magical skill, he could quickly get started.

As for the shapes of heaven and earth, he had only comprehended the two forms of thunder and lightning. As for the two forms of wind and cloud, he had just started to learn them. It would probably take some time for him to fully comprehend them.

“No wonder every school uses talent as the first criterion for accepting disciples. If one lacks talent, even if one has supernatural skills, it will be difficult to get started, let alone master it.”

Master Li Dao sighed.

He has not been able to comprehend the shape of wind and clouds for nearly a month. If he had an average or low level physique, he would not be able to enter the door even if he was blown by cold wind for a hundred years.

After sorting out and pondering for a long time, Li Yuan put down the Pure Yang Dragon Scale Armor and walked into the Black Whale Secret Realm.

The inverted mountain formed by the black whale's true qi is an excellent place for him to practice martial arts, especially martial arts and skills related to true qi.
Practicing here will achieve twice the result with half the effort.

"The art of forging weapons and refining treasures."

In front of the gate of Xuanjing Mountain, Li Yuan sat cross-legged, thinking in his mind.

After this attempt, he felt more and more that this treasure refining technique was extraordinary. Before this, his only understanding of divine patterns came from the divine fire forging platform.

"The law contains divine patterns, and divine patterns are the law. I'm afraid this treasure refining technique also comes from the Xuanjing Sect?"

Looking at the tall archway in front of him, Li Yuan guessed who the previous owner of the Black Whale Hammer was, but this treasure refining technique was obviously different from any other weapon-making technique in the world. Instead, it had more of the style of "military training manual".

According to the identification of the Military Control Register, it is not considered a "weapon" but a "treasure".

"Magic weapon, magic weapon?"

After his thoughts wandered for a long time, Li Yuan finally stood up and walked slowly towards Xuanjing Gate to receive the true teaching trial.

The great master holding the Fang Tian Hua Ji was extremely ferocious. He was defeated miserably many times, but he gradually became familiar with his moves and fighting methods.

But after all, the gap is too big. Even if one wants to move around with light skills, there is still a long way to go.

"We need to get some of Senior Sister Nie Ying's animal skins... If we buy them, we won't have enough gold to upgrade to the Military Master Scroll. How about we just owe them first?"

Letting out a long sigh and suppressing the scattered thoughts in his mind, Li Yuan concentrated his mind, walked into the arena, and faced the giant holding the Fang Tian Hua Ji.

……

……

A heavy snow swept in, and the whole world was bleak.

Almost overnight, the mountains, rivers and earth were all covered in silver, and it was the winter solstice again.

Huhu~
The north wind howls.

Xin Wenhua walked on the snow to the back mountain of Longmen's main peak. This is the highest point among the Longmen mountains. The wind was too strong and there was little snow around.

But the morning mist did not dissipate, and it remained like a cloud, being blown up and down by the wind.

Arriving at the edge of the cliff, Xin Wenhua stopped and through the strong wind and fog, he could see a figure sitting cross-legged in the air, moving with the wind but never falling.

"Junior Brother Li's true energy is becoming more and more powerful..."

Although it was not the first time he had seen it, Xin Wenhua still felt quite frightened.

After the qi meridians are forged in the body, the true qi can burst out of the body and condense within ten feet without dispersing. Therefore, a warrior who has forged multiple qi meridians and has extremely powerful true qi can stand in the air to a certain extent.

But this is only in theory.

He had perfected his marrow refining several months ago, but even now, he could only stand in the air for a short while. He had never seen anyone like Li Yuan, who could stand in the air for several hours.

"call!"

"Suck!"

The wind was very loud on the cliff, but Xin Wenhua could still hear the long breathing sound. The breathing sound was very long, but the movement was very loud. With every breath, the fog and wind on the cliff were suppressed. At first glance, it seemed as if a big monster was swallowing the essence of the mountain.

Compared to his reserved demeanor when he was forging iron in Jingtao Hall, Li Yuan at this moment exuded an aura that frightened him. After staring at him for a long time, he even had the urge to draw his sword.

"I'm afraid Junior Brother Li is going to refine his marrow?"

Xin Wenhua had a complicated expression. The words that Long Xinglie had told him to protect this kid two years ago seemed to still echo in his ears, but it was like a dream.

In just two years, this kid has gone from shape-changing to almost marrow refining. It took him twenty years to reach this stage.

A tenfold difference...

"call!"

The wind blew the clouds and mist moved, and Li Yuan sat quietly in the air, seemingly ethereal like a fairy, but in fact his mind was extremely tense, and the blood and true energy in his body were flowing violently, making a "rustling" sound.

Relying on the thirty-six energy channels, he had been able to stand in the air long ago, but this was extremely exhausting and consumed a lot of his true energy.

He had only been able to do it in recent days after he had practiced the fourth level of Tian Yi Jiu, and at the same time practiced several light skills, transformed his body into a fire dragon, and gained a preliminary understanding of the form of wind and cloud.

But he also had to concentrate, as he had fallen down several times before.

"The wind is ever-changing and the clouds are formless..."

Li Yuan stretched out his hand, feeling the wind blowing through his fingertips. A cloud of mist kept changing into various shapes in his palm:

"What Daoist Master Long said is very mysterious. In fact, the essence of the shape of wind and cloud is change."

Perhaps it was because of martial arts terminology, or perhaps it was out of habit, but even Daoist Master Long sounded somewhat mysterious when he mentioned the shape of wind and clouds.

The so-called wind is ever-changing and clouds have no form. In other words, wind and clouds are natural phenomena without fixed shapes and they change with the airflow.

The wind and the clouds are not the core; change is.

"It took two months in total. The shape of heaven and earth was more difficult than a unique skill. Fortunately, it was done."

Li Yuan stood up in the wind and fog. He had gained a lot during this period, including but not limited to overcoming his fear of heights.

The cliff was about 800 meters high. He free fell two or three times. With his physique, he was only slightly injured. With the power of the Dragon Tiger Pill in his body, he didn't even notice anything.

"The Jiao form is a combination of six forms, the small dragon form is nine, the big dragon form is thirteen, and the heaven and earth form does not match the beast form, so let's just count it as one form...

Even so, the number of forms I have changed has reached 220!"

Walking slowly in the air, Li Yuan took one deep step and one shallow step. The Black Whale Qi spread out like the wind and enveloped him. Looking at the four suns rising gradually in the sky, he was in a very good mood.

In the days after he obtained the Pure Yang Dragon Scale Armor, he reduced the number of times he went to Jingtao Hall and concentrated on practicing martial arts and stacking talents.

With the help of the medicinal power of the Dragon-Tiger Pill, the various martial arts he practiced were all perfected, and the Cloud Dragon Nine Appearances also reached perfection a few days ago as he comprehended the form of wind and cloud.

"Next, it's the Mirage Dragon Belt."

Touching the Mirage Dragon Belt around his waist, Li Yuan couldn't help but smile. After changing the Mirage Dragon's body, he could add another three hundred forms.

"Next time I see Old Han, I'll make sure he sees the elegance of the Thousand Beast Thunder Dragon!"

Moving on the wind, Li Yuan landed on the cliff. After his feet were on the ground, he gathered his true energy. The dragon-tiger pill in his stomach trembled, the medicinal power spread, and his true energy gradually filled up.

"Congratulations, junior brother, for your great progress in martial arts."

Xin Wenhua bowed to congratulate him and suppressed the complicated feelings in his heart.

Whenever he met Li Yuan, he would forget that he was also a top genius in the state, and was rated as one of the best among men by the health-preserving furnace.

“It’s just a small improvement.”

Li Yuan habitually said something modest, and decisively changed the subject, talking about the hurt feelings of his fellow apprentices:
"The sect assessment is about to begin?"

There is no fixed date for the Longhu Temple's sect assessment. For many years, it is held with the first heavy snow in midwinter, and this year is no exception.

"It will start when the sun rises, but the true teaching test will not be until the afternoon, so there is no rush."

Xin Wenhua nodded. He didn’t care much about the sect assessment. After all, given his relationship with Li Yuan, it would definitely be someone else who would be defeated.

"It's just right. I want to go down the mountain for a walk."

Li Yuan didn't care much about the sect's assessment. After all, apart from Xin Wenhua and Long Xinglie, he was not really familiar with the other true disciples.

"It's good to go down the mountain for a walk."

Xin Wenhua quite agreed. Inspired by Li Yuan, he had not gone down the mountain for many days.

"By the way, Senior Sister Nie hasn't come out of seclusion yet?"

Li Yuan asked.

He went to look for Nie Ying several days ago, wanting to buy some spirit beast skins, but the latter was in seclusion. He wanted to find Taoist Nie, who had gone down the mountain.

Helplessly, it was delayed for some days.

"It takes a few days or half a year to enter the four stages of Taoism. There is no fixed time."

Xin Wenhua sighed.

If the nine hall masters had not been in seclusion, he would not have been so busy.

……

When the two men went down the mountain, the sect assessment had not yet begun, but the inner and outer gates were already quite lively, with disciples of the Dragon and Tiger Temple everywhere in the heavy snow.

Li Yuan saw Qiu Changying and Fang Yunxiu, but did not disturb the two who were preparing for battle. He and Xin Wenhua went to a nearby restaurant to have a meal, and then slowly walked towards the weapon forging shop.
