7. Hanshan ()

Although Hanshui City is famous for its name, it is also a harbor city, but in fact, there are several seemingly majestic mountains near its area.

At this moment, Ye Xuan was in one of the forests called Hanshan.

This Han Mountain is the closest mountain to Hanshui City, but this mountain has only one peak, with a relative height of about 400 meters. Compared with the other nearby mountains with an altitude of more than 1,000 meters, this mountain can only be considered shabby.

But Hanshan also has advantages that other mountains cannot match, that is, the mountains are long.

According to the old residents of Hanshui City, the mountains of Hanshan are stretching for more than ten thousand miles, spanning the two states of Hanzhou and Jingzhou. Such a continuous length naturally breeds countless creatures and feeds several cities, towns, villages, and especially the areas in Jingzhou.

Logically speaking, such a mountain must have earth veins.

The reason why mountains, rivers, lakes and seas are famous is because of their spirituality; and the reason for their spirituality is because they contain a large amount of spiritual energy in heaven and earth.

The earth veins are spiritual veins formed by the precipitation of these spiritual energy in the world through hundreds or even thousands of years. The earth veins are not only born in mountains, but may also be born in rivers, lakes and seas, or even in a region.

The so-called outstanding people and the land are mostly deduced by the reasons for the earth veins.

On the Tianyuan Continent, most of the places where the mountain gates of those sects are located are selected in places where the earth veins exist. Because the spiritual energy emitted by the earth veins is extremely abundant, it can speed up the cultivation speed of practitioners, which is no less than the so-called blessings of the cave heaven.

However, the "Shanhe Art" practiced by Ye Xuan is not that simple.

If you simply absorb the spiritual energy emitted by the earth's veins, "Shanhe Jue" will not become a heaven-level martial art.

What this "Shanhe Jue" practices is to directly absorb a Earth vein and incorporate the spiritual energy contained in the Earth vein into oneself to transform one's meridians.

Moreover, because the earth veins are naturally transformed by heaven and earth, it contains a trace of mysterious and yellow true energy, if a practitioner successfully refines the twelve meridians and eight extraordinary meridians, a sense of calmness will be emitted in every move, and it will naturally be easier to communicate the momentum of heaven and earth.

And in addition, there are other benefits to practicing "Mountain and River Art".

Because the meridians in the body are transformed into existences similar to those of the earth veins, the spiritual energy they trigger will not be wasted when the practitioner performs martial arts, which ensures that the practitioner has stronger power and more lasting combat power than the opponent when facing the enemy.

In addition, the earth veins are transformed by the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, and the practitioners will absorb and call spiritual energy more quickly than others.

Of course, there are some differences in this kind of speed. If the opponent is also practicing the heavenly level Qi-inducing technique, no matter how fast it is, it is impossible to get much faster.

However, it is not easy to be born in the earth veins. Although the master who created the "Shanhe Jue" had a strange idea, he also knew how to leave a glimmer of life. Therefore, although this technique absorbed the earth veins, it still left a little vein. After thousands of years of precipitation, a new earth vein will be born, and the vein energy of a region will not be eliminated.

However, Ye Xuan, who was in the cold mountain at this moment, had a look of confusion on his face.

He slowly closed his eyes and opened them again. A golden color appeared in his pupils, but the scene in front of Ye Xuan was no longer the scene of Hanshan, but replaced by a white mist.

"How could this happen?" Ye Xuan's eyes faded, but his brows frowned. "The pulse observation technique has failed? Is there any expert here to set up the formation?"

The technique of observing the pulse is a technique of observing the image prepared by the "Shanhe Jue" for practitioners.

Through this secret technique, practitioners can easily see whether an area contains earth veins.

Under the action of the meridian observation technique, the area containing the earth veins will emit a red and yellow stripe. If the history of this earth vein is long enough, the deeper the red and yellow colors will be, and the longer and thicker the stripe will be.

However, among several mountains near Hanshui City, Ye Xuan did not find any existence of the earth veins when he used this meridian observation technique.

And this Hanshan was Ye Xuan's last destination, but when he came to this Hanshan to perform the meridian observation technique, he saw a piece of white mist, which was completely different from what he usually saw. If there was no earth vein, then the situation seen under the meridian observation technique was no different from what he usually saw.

However, Hanshan showed another strange situation, and the pulse observation technique was completely blocked.

If there is a sect above Han Shang who sets down the mountain gate here, then it is possible to set up a strange formation to suppress the earth veins for the sects, and Ye Xuan cannot see the situation by using the vein viewing technique, he can still understand it.

But there is nothing on this Hanshan Mountain, and everything is no different from normal mountains. Although the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is indeed more abundant than other mountains and forests. However, these spiritual energy is obviously floating around and not being used. This is obviously a land without a border.

Ye Xuan had to be surprised: If it was a land without a border, how could the pulse observation technique fail?

By stopping the use of pulse observation technique, Ye Xuan's vision returned to normal.

He looked around and found nothing unusual. After hesitating for a while, he chose to continue going up the mountain.

At this moment, Ye Xuan was at the foot of the mountain. Since he could not see clearly whether Hanshan had earth veins, he decided to go deep into Hanshan to check and make a decision. After all, Hanshan is Ye Xuan’s last hope. If there were no earth veins here, then his cultivation progress would probably have some twists and turns.

What Ye Xuan hates the most is words such as twists and turns, accidents, etc.

There are three irreversible processes in a cultivator's life.

One is the foundation-laying stage from the age of eight to twelve. Only after laying the foundation at the age of twelve can the cultivator's talent and talent begin to show. If some people with a talented person can enter the lower level ninth level after laying the foundation at the age of twelve, if they have a good Qi-induced technique, they can generally reach the level of the first level in the upper level after practicing for three years. If nothing unexpected happens, it is inevitable that they will break through the innate age at the age of seventeen or eighteen.

However, the body that Ye Xuan took over was almost fifteen years old, but he was still in the ninth grade of the lower level, which made him a little confused. Logically speaking, the foundation of this body was extremely solid. After all, it was a child of a large family, much stronger than the body he had earlier, but his realm still had not improved. The only explanation is that the owner of the original body was a stupid guy.

Of course, it may also be related to the fact that the Qi-inducing technique he practiced is too bad.

From this point of view, we can see that there is a gap between the children of the aristocratic families of the White Jade Dynasty and the children of the truly famous families and sects of the Tianyuan Continent.

Taking the Lu family as an example, only core disciples can practice the Lu Qi Induction Art and the Tingfeng Sword Technique. To become a core disciple, in addition to talent, there is also some review, such as loyalty to the family, etc. After all these tests, no one can tell how much time it will waste.

What's more, before becoming a core disciple, the Qi-induced techniques and martial arts practiced by these tribes were also varied, and there was no unity at all.

However, those famous sects and powerful families are not like this. Even though there are also some assessments and tests of loyalty, the Qi-induced artifacts they practice for their disciples are unified. Only by practicing the same martial arts can the speed of their entry into the country become the criterion for judging the level of talent.

If you have good talent and are loyal to your family and sects, you will naturally have better learning of martial arts and better treatment.

Thinking of this, Ye Xuan could only sigh helplessly: According to normal circumstances, if you practice the Lu Family Qi Induction Art, it would be fine for a disciple with better talent to reach the first level of the upper level at around 20 years old.

However, Ye Xuan has a better technique for quoting skills than the Lu family's Qi Induction Art. If he is stuck in this level because he cannot find a vein and cannot break through the innate world before he is twenty years old, then he will really be in tears.

Because this is related to the second "there are three irreversible processes in his life", he missed this point back then, and it was rare to take over a good body, and he was unwilling to miss it again.

Before he knew it, Ye Xuan came to the middle of Hanshan Mountain. He looked at the only peak of Hanshan Mountain - that was the destination of his trip.

There are three methods of observing the pulse recorded in "Shanhe Jue".

One is looking far away.

If the earth veins contained in a region are just born, then the veins will be majestic. From a distance, you can see the red and yellow color rising into the sky.

The second is close view.

After hundreds of years of precipitation and sublimation, the pulse is calm and restrained. When you look far away, you will only see spiritual energy spreading and you cannot tell whether there is a vein.

At this time, you can only get close to this place and observe carefully. If you find something, you will see the red and yellow earth veins that are like galaxies erupting from a stream of spiritual energy, washing a region.

The third is to observe the situation.

After accumulating for a long time, the earth veins will no longer erupt spiritual energy, but will begin to condense. This kind of earth vein is called the old vein, which no longer appears on the surface, but will hide under the region, making it extremely troublesome to find.

The method Ye Xuan wanted to use at this moment was to observe the situation. He had used the first two methods. Except for the Hanshan that could not be seen through, there were no earth veins in other nearby mountains.

Since he started practicing "Shanhe Art" and learned to observe the pulse, he has only used the method of observing the situation twice.

This is the third time now.

Using observation of the situation is not as simple as the first two methods. This is a method that is somewhat related to the terrain and Feng Shui. It requires the practitioner's own experience and eyesight to judge. Fortunately, Ye Xuan has studied "Shanhe Jue" and various Feng Shui studies, and it has been more than a year or two, so this will not stump him.

It’s just that you can see whether there are Earth veins and where the source of Earth veins is, these are two concepts.

To absorb the spiritual energy of the earth vein, you must find the source of the earth vein.

However, whether it is to observe the situation or find the source of the earth's veins, you must at least stand on a high place.

This is why Ye Xuan had to climb the peak of Hanshan.
