Volume 1: Abandoned Land Chapter 30: Stealing Snake Eggs
Gu Lingyan's teaching method is also unique. He did not analyze a foundation-laying technique like other lecturers. Instead, from childhood to adulthood, he first talks about the human acupoints, meridians, and then to the formation of the five elements of spiritual power between heaven and earth. Finally, he analyzes the principle of the practitioner's breathing spiritual power, from shallow to deep, and thoroughly analyzes it.
This collective teaching method is only six times. After six times, everything depends on yourself. You reach the sixth level of Qi refining within six years. If you pass the assessment, you can become an inner disciple. Therefore, when you listen to lectures on weekdays, Kong Laosan almost concentrated his energy and kept the content taught by Master Gu in mind. Even if you don’t understand something, he would ask his fellow senior brother or the senior brother Fu in the beast garden for advice. It was not slow to enter the country. In just half a month, the original unclear part of the Qi refining process gradually became clear. When the mind was clear, the cyclone that had already stagnated in the Dantian loosened again.
In the snake courtyard and the wooden house, Kong Laosan closed his eyes slightly and kept pinching out magic tricks with his hands. The whole person seemed to be integrated with the surrounding environment, and a quiet and cool charm emanated.
The effects of the foundation laying technique are not much different. Whether it is the "Yin Ling Sutra" obtained by Kong Laosan from the evil Taoist, or the skills used by other family disciples to lay the foundation when they were introduced, they are essentially laying a solid foundation and using the spiritual power of the heaven and earth to nourish themselves and improve their physical health. What can truly determine the future and destiny is the advanced technique chosen after building the foundation.
However, the end of this book "Yin Ling Sutra" in Kong Lao San's hand records five methods of refining foreign soldiers: "Five Yin Bags", "Purple Cloud Gourds", "Ghost Banners", "Bloodthirsty Vine", and "Bone Puppet". Each type of refining foreign soldiers here comes at the cost of the flesh and blood of millions of creatures, which can be said to be extremely vicious.
At that time, the evil Taoist spent seven years to refine the ghost banner. He slaughtered a large number of creatures to barely complete the sacrifice. However, no matter whether the evil Taoist or Confucius, he could not exert the power of the ghost banner itself.
As time went by, Kong Laosan's breathing became longer and longer. At the same time, a trace of clear white spiritual power visible to the naked eye lingered from all around, turning into a silk of air, and sank into Kong Laosan's mouth and nose.
The third-class spiritual roots are not good or bad in the world of immortal cultivation. They are more common ordinary qualifications. Of course, for cultivators, being talented is not enough, and tempering their minds is also important.
Now Kong Laosan has been practicing in the Qingling Sect for nearly half a year. The clear white spiritual power, which was originally as thick as an index finger, has soared a circle. With the operation of the exercises, these spiritual threads seem to have life, like a small snake, constantly circulating along the eight extraordinary meridians in the body. Every time they pass, they will be filled with a cool feeling. At the same time, under the continuous infiltration of the spiritual power of heaven and earth, the impurities that were originally hidden under the skin of the viscera and spleen muscles in the bones and meridians were gradually eliminated from the body. Looking at the appearance, Kong Laosan, who was originally thin and dark, had undergone considerable changes, his skin became much whiter, and his whole person looked full of spiritual energy.
After three hours, after nine cycles of spiritual power in his body, Kong Laosan slowly opened his eyes and felt the growing light and aura in his body. He felt a little happy and exhaled a long breath of turbid air.
The levels of the Qi Refining Period are not obvious. They are the entry-level stage for cultivators. They have been here for half a year since they came to Qingling Sect. On weekdays, except for feeding and caring for the Blood-Crown Snake, they spend almost all their rest of their time breathing and meditating. In addition, the spiritual power in the beast garden is much more abundant than other places. Kong Laosan is not worried about reaching the sixth level of Qi Refining within six years.
After finishing his breathing, Kong Laosan looked at the gray-black liquid attached to his skin, and couldn't help but smile bitterly. It seemed that a thin layer of moss was growing all over his body. The impurities in his body were discharged from the body with sweat. During this period, after each breathing, he had to take a shower and clean up these impurities. Now it has become a habit.
The heaven and earth are hot, and there are not so many rules in the Snake Courtyard. Kong Laosan simply came directly to the stream flowing through the Snake Courtyard, took off his legs, and with a "thump", he dived into the bottom of the water like a swimming fish, completely relaxing himself.
Half an hour later, just as Kong Laosan was floating quietly on the water and wandering around the world, a faint "click" sound suddenly came into his ears.
"kindness?"
Kong Laosan was stunned and woke up immediately, looking towards the bottom of Snake Mountain with surprise. Kong Laosan could hear clearly that the strange sound just now came from that corner.
“That place seems to be a place to store snake eggs”
Thinking of this, Kong Laosan's expression changed slightly, "Someone stole a snake egg?"
This thought just flashed through my mind, and another extremely crisp "click" sound came. This time, Kong Laosan could hear it clearly, and it was indeed the sound of a snake egg shattering.
This time, Kong Laosan really changed his face. After half a year of visiting Qingling Gate, he had never practiced any magical magic except for breathing and meditating. The only thing he could use to fight against the enemy was some talisman paper he bought from the market.
At this moment, Kong Laosan didn't care much about it. He jumped out of the water, put on a robe, took out a piece of talisman paper, and then quietly walked towards the place where the sound came.
However, as soon as the steps moved, the surroundings suddenly became lively. The blood-crowned snakes seemed to have discovered the thieves who had discovered the snake eggs stolen, suddenly rushed out from all around Snake Mountain and shot towards the place where the snake eggs were stored. Some second-level blood-crowned snakes even "hissed" twice, spitting out several thin blood-colored wind blades, and blasted hard towards the darkness without hesitation.
The next moment, a sound that made Kong Laosan remember suddenly came from the dark. Before Kong Laosan could react, he saw the thief who stole the snake eggs flapping his wings and flying up, holding two snake eggs in his claws, and holding one in his mouth.
"That flat-haired beast?!"
Seeing this scene, Kong Laosan immediately reacted. Without thinking, he directly activated the talisman paper in his hand and sacrificed it directly towards the spiritual crane.
When I first arrived at the beast garden, the spirit crane not only deceived him two spirit stones, but also made him wait for a long time in front of the door and was fooled by a flat-haired beast. Kong Laosan kept holding anger in his heart, but he didn't know the origin of the spirit crane, so Kong Laosan couldn't find it bad luck, and he didn't expect the other party to come to him automatically.
However, Kong Laosan just wanted to extricate his anger and did not want to really hurt the spiritual crane. The spiritual crane in front of him was much smarter than ordinary spiritual beasts. He didn't know who was raising it in the sect, so he actually made it a thief like this.
The talisman paper burned out, and the orange-red flame turned into a ball of fire, and shot out in the direction of the spirit crane in an extremely rapid manner. The spirit crane carried three snake eggs and thrust away like a pheasant. He only paid attention to the blood-crowned snakes attacking behind him, and had never seen the fire balls attacking ahead.
"Click!"
With a crisp sound, the snake egg in Linghe's mouth was directly broken by the fireball. The egg yolk and egg white mixed together, splashing the head of Linghe. At the same time, the fireball burst and instantly covered the entire crane head of the other party. Even under Kong Laosan's intentional retention, the pure white feather above Linghe's neck was still burned. Although he had not suffered any damage, he looked extremely embarrassed.
The attack suddenly came. Linghe was stunned in the air for a moment before he seemed to react and looked at Kong Laosan in a daze.
Seeing this, Kong Laosan smiled and felt a sense of revenge. He was about to say something, but he saw the spiritual crane in front of him suddenly roaring twice, as if extremely angry, and rushed towards Kong Laosan with a fierce momentum.
"Oh"
It seemed that this spiritual crane dared to cause trouble for him. Kong Laosan sneered in surprise. Another talisman was already in his hand and ready to sacrifice it at any time.
However, what surprised Kong Laosan was that just when the spiritual crane was pounced on the way, he seemed to have thought of something, turned around and flew to the other side, and finally landed on the eaves not far away. After carefully putting the snake eggs in their claws, he rushed towards Kong Laosan again.
Seeing this scene, Kong Laosan was speechless. The spiritual crane in front of him was obviously much smarter than ordinary spiritual beasts. He was not only greedy for money, but also cheated. If the other party was not really a spiritual crane, Kong Laosan would have suspected that the other party was a cultivator like him.
Just as Linghe was less than ten feet away from Kong Laosan and the talisman paper in Kong Laosan's hand was about to be sacrificed, a scene that surprised Kong Laosan appeared. Linghe's two dark claws suddenly flashed two black lights, trembling slightly, and the two black crane claws condensed into shape and surged in the wind. In just three breaths, the black crane claws, which were originally the size of a fist, soared to three feet in size, and looked towards Kong Laosan like a pot lid. At the same time, a palpitationary pressure emanated from it.
"This is"
Kong Laosan was stunned, and his face changed drastically. He didn't want to activate the talisman in his hand. The fire light flashed, and the talisman directly turned into a ball of fire and bombarded the attacking claws. He felt the terrifying pressure emitted by the two claws. Kong Laosan felt cold in his heart. This aura was obviously far beyond the full-strength attack of the ordinary ninth-level Qi Refining cultivator.
"Fourth-level spiritual beast?! It is comparable to a foundation-building powerhouse!"
