Chapter 7 It’s hard to say goodbye when we get together
Under the Baoguang Pagoda, there is an old man with a white beard in the stone chamber. His crown is crooked, his bun is messy, and his complexion is extremely poor.
He activated the secret summoning technique several times, tried to forcibly summon the Time Cauldron, and teleported Tianjiu here, but all ended in failure.
"Damn it! My magic power has become so weak! I can't even pull a piece of trash away."
The old man's face was twisted with rage, and there was fear and sorrow in his eyes.
"No, I must summon him before the Mother Cauldron of Time activates. Alas, it seems that I have to practice the strengthening secret technique. Although it will cause more damage to the body, there is no other good way."
The old man's eyes gradually became determined. He sat cross-legged on the bluestone ground, closed his eyes, and muttered something. After a while, a few wisps of smoke appeared on his head, and his face became even more withered...
Only the frog stared at all this with his eyes wide open in curiosity.
Tianjiu lay drowsily on the wooden board on the second floor of Jibaozhai. He was too sleepy and tired.
Suddenly, a heartbreaking pain came, and Tianjiu jumped up and hugged the arm covered with red spots. At this time, the red spots were shaking violently, sometimes black, sometimes turning red, which looked strange and abnormal under the light.
"Old man, what on earth do you want to do? I won't be fooled. Even if you blow me up, I won't go. I've lost that little tripod of yours a long time ago!"
Tianjiu gritted his teeth and growled at Red Spot.
But the pain continued, and something heavy on his head shook faintly. Tianjiu had a splitting headache and almost shouted.
He didn't dare to shout loudly, but just moaned in pain. His head was getting more and more painful and heavier, as if something heavy was about to fly out of his head.
Tianjiu endured the severe pain, tremblingly found a pen and half a piece of paper, closed his eyes and meditated, and started writing with all his strength.
After a stick of incense, there was a crisp buzzing sound, and a colorful glow emerged from Tianjiu's forehead. He groaned and saw in despair a familiar small tripod floating in the sky above his head...
In the stone room at the bottom of Baoguang Tower, the white-bearded old man's crown fell to the bluestone floor with a bang. His face was haggard, his eyes were sunken, and wisps of black smoke were rising from his head.
He put his hands on his Dantian and recited some incomprehensible spells in his mouth. Suddenly, he roared "Hey", his eyes opened angrily, two streams of black blood flowed from the corners of his eyes, and a huge beam of light visible to the naked eye shot out from the top of his head...
…
At the same time, Tianjiu struggled and pressed the piece of paper against the wall, raised his hand and bit his index finger, and wrote his name with blood. After doing this, he put his broken bag on his back, and in the great glow of the glow, he was hit by a burst of light.
It rolled up and disappeared into the house.
The half piece of white paper fluttered slightly in the wind, and a few lines of black text were extremely eye-catching...
"Xiao Na:
If you find this place and read this letter, it means that I was taken away by that hateful old man.
Although I know this will make you sad and heartbroken, there is really nothing I can do and I can't resist.
Xiao Na, you should have heard the story of the Baoguang Tower. The Baoguang that happens once in a century should be real. Some time ago, I accidentally got a small tripod, which took me to an old man underground. The old man
They said that I was a 'Heaven Guide' and wanted to send me to another world to cultivate immortality. I was not willing. However, the old man was too scary. His power was beyond the imagination of today's people. The old man drugged me and often threatened me.
I, want me to find him.
Xiao Na, I have a feeling that it will be difficult for me to resist his power. If I leave, you have to cheer up. I know you will hate me. But don’t worry, I will do my best to find a way home. No matter it is ten
Years, a hundred years, even a thousand years, I will definitely get it back.
Xiao Na, if I don't come back within a year, just forget about me. I may have disappeared in time and space, because all the "Sky Guides" have not come back. It is an unknown world and an extremely dangerous one.
And in this cruel world, even if I really turn into dust, I will still feel proud and happy because I met you, which gave me infinite nostalgia and affection for my home, the earth.
I never promised you anything, but you never said a word of complaint. In the past few years, I have not been with you well. How much I want to take you away, but my reason tells me that it is selfish and will put you in a huge dilemma.
In crisis.
Xiao Na, if you don’t hate me too much, go and see me off. The colorful glow that appears every hundred years in the Baoguang Tower is the footsteps of every Heavenly Guide leaving the earth.
Maybe you will see it tomorrow, and that will be the last smile I leave you, or the last time I can see you...
"Tianjiu left a pen"
※※
Tianjiu banged again and fell to the bluestone ground, and the small tripod turned into rays of light and sank into his head.
In the stone room, the little frog still had his chin bulging and his eyes widened. Next to the Mother Cauldron of Time, an old man with a white beard was lying on the ground, spitting out black blood from his mouth, and his whole face was dyed black and red. It was extremely bloody and terrifying.
.
"Hahaha! Little guy, I finally brought you here! It's not in vain that I lost most of my cultivation. It's fine when you come, it's fine when you come!"
The old man said to Tianjiu happily with his mouth full of black blood.
"You~~!" Tianjiu looked at the old man, his scalp was numb, and he wanted to go up and bite this old monster to death.
"Why are you trying so hard to get me to cultivate immortality? What good will it do to you? No matter how hard you do your duty, will Tiandaozi care about you? Can't you let me go?"
"Presumptuous! Can you slander Tiandaozi?"
The old man raised his hand, and a beam of white light came out from his finger.
Before Tianjiu had time to react, a blood hole appeared in his left arm. It took a while before the pain entered his heart.
"Oh, old man, you are so cruel, you almost shot me to death!"
Tianjiu cried, his eyes filled with fear, this speed was too fast, killing him was a matter of the blink of an eye.
"Hmph! If I don't teach you a lesson, you really think my words are nonsense. I warned you before and asked you to come to my place as soon as you enter the Qi refining period, but you actually dare to disobey!"
"Old man, it's better if you don't tell me, you liar, the medicine you gave me almost killed me, do you know? The feeling is worse and more painful than death!"
"Hmph, not everyone can bear the Nine Nether Marrow Cutting Pill. It's not an exaggeration to say that you will survive nine deaths, but the fact that you survived is also your fate. It seems that God is not kind to me! You are such a good-for-nothing.
My mana is almost exhausted, I really want to beat you to death!"
After saying that, the old man struck out two palms in the air.
I saw Tianjiu rolling over on the ground, his bones creaking and almost breaking.
"Ah——!" Tianjiu ghost cried and howled.
"Grandpa, I was wrong. Stop hitting me. If you hit me again, you will kill me. I will listen to you."
Tianjiu wanted to fight the old man with a gun several times, but thinking of the old man's terrifying speed, he finally endured it.
He had to endure it and wait for the most advantageous blow. He always felt that this old man had no good intentions and urged him to come so desperately. He must not simply send him to cultivate as an immortal. There must be a conspiracy buried there. Before the conspiracy was launched, he didn't want to
Use your only trump card. Once it fails, the old man will definitely be on guard. When the time comes, it will no longer work.
The old man nodded with satisfaction.
"Hmph! You loser, you are overestimating your ability to oppose me. In my eyes, you are nothing more than an ant."
The old man said proudly, the black blood in his mouth gradually stopped flowing.
"Are you going to send me away now?"
Tianjiu asked tentatively, if the old man sent him away immediately, it meant that the problem was not big, otherwise, there must be a conspiracy.
"Hey, what's the rush? Little guy, use your spiritual consciousness to look inside and see if you can enter your sea of consciousness?"
Sure enough, this old man had no good intentions! A light flashed deep in Tianjiu's eyes.
"What is spiritual consciousness? Where is the sea of consciousness?"
"Idiot! Sit down cross-legged, close your eyes, focus your mind and look inside. Do you see a white ball?"
Tianjiu reluctantly followed the instructions.
"No, I didn't see anything, it was pitch black." Tianjiu said weakly.
"Damn! Idiot!"
The old man swayed and strangely came to Tianjiu, and slapped Tianjiu on the head.
"I'm calling you stupid, I'm calling you stupid!" The old man slapped him several times, and Tianjiu felt that the sky was dark and the earth was dark, and the stars were shining everywhere.
"I see it, I see it!"
Tianjiu shouted fiercely, if he couldn't see again, he might be beaten to death.
"But it's not a white ball, it's a white dot. What is this white dot? Can it still run up and down?"
"Trash, so weak! Oops! This is the first time I have encountered a consciousness that is so small that it is just a white dot. Move it quickly, towards your head, and it will naturally go into your sea of consciousness." The old man said.
I hate the way iron cannot become steel.
"Oh, there's nothing there, it's empty and gray." Tianjiu said anxiously.
In fact, what he saw was not an empty space, but a huge purple-black cauldron, floating in the air as if standing tall on the sky, emitting a bright glow. His little white spot was warmed by the glow, and it was indescribable.
of comfort.
He was not prepared to be led around by the old man.
"What! Nothing?" the old man became furious.
"Have you not practiced "Luo Tian Jue"? There should be some formulas in it!"
When Tianjiu heard this, he felt secretly happy. It seemed that the old man with the big purple and black cauldron didn't know that it looked like the unlucky little cauldron that had disappeared. How could it have come into his sea of consciousness? Tianjiu couldn't believe it.
He had an explanation, but he wasn't ready to tell the old man.
"Uh! Old man, when you sent the book to me, you didn't say that I must practice cultivation! Besides, the book has been burned like this, so it seems that it is no longer of use."
Tianjiu took out the thin book that was beyond recognition from his backpack. Most of the book had been burned by the last explosion.
"I will destroy you! How dare you destroy my book!" The old man went crazy again, his eyes filled with murderous intent.
"Uh, wait, wait, can you please explain it to me? I don't know how to practice. I'm afraid that if my practice goes astray, it will ruin your career."
The old man's face turned black and green, and the original blood color disappeared.
He lamented in his heart that this loser did not practice Luo Tian Jue by mistake. If he had practiced it, he would almost 100% succeed in seizing the body, and he could start practicing immediately. But now, his plan to seize the body had to be
It has changed. Although the chance of successfully seizing the body is extremely high, this good-for-nothing has almost zero spiritual power because he has not practiced. This will bring unnecessary trouble to his later cultivation.
"Hmph! Don't move. I'll teach you a few breathing exercises. You can meditate according to this method." After the old man finished speaking, dots of starlight flew out from his forehead and disappeared into the nine heads of the sky. Dots of starlight entered the sea of consciousness.
A few formulas suddenly appeared.
"These few formulas teach you how to absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. You must work hard to accumulate some spiritual energy in your Dantian. Otherwise, you will not have spiritual energy to protect your body. When the time comes, your body will be torn to pieces.
"
There was a deep meaning in the old man's eyes. In fact, he knew that if this body had no spiritual power, it would be useless if he got it. Before he is familiar with the body, cultivation is extremely dangerous, and his muscles and veins may be broken if he doesn't get it.
And died.
"Oh, let me try!" Tianjiu replied thoughtfully.
Next, the old man angrily explained to Tianjiu the key points of breathing and the path of spiritual energy. When the old man almost threatened to kill him again, he deposited the first trace of spiritual energy into his Dantian.
"Okay, go to the corner and practice, don't get in the way!"
The old man kicked out, and Tianjiu felt a huge force knocking him down. He hit the bluestone wall with a bang and fell into the corner. The little frog jumped up quickly and landed on Tianjiu's head.
Go up and avoid the fate of being crushed.
"Damn, this old man is too vicious. He's always punching and kicking him. If he keeps doing this, he'll be killed sooner or later."
Tianjiu helplessly sat down cross-legged, his spiritual consciousness entered the sea of consciousness, memorized the formulas of the exercises, then exited his spiritual consciousness, closed his eyes and chanted the formulas.
Within a few breaths, his consciousness sensed a weak vibration above his head. In the air, a small green molecule jumped happily and flew towards his head, flashing a little light, and then disappeared into his nose.
It travels quickly around the body along the meridians. After walking for a week, it finally rushes into the Dantian and disappears.
Then, the second and third cyan molecules entered the mouth and nose, walked in the same way, and finally lost their traces in the Dantian. Tianjiu did not feel any obvious changes in his body, but when the cyan molecules wandered in the meridians
, I feel indescribably comfortable, with a sense of relief and hunger like a drizzle after a long drought.
"This cyan molecule should be spiritual energy." Tianjiu analyzed.
He thought of what the old man said. Ninety-nine percent of the earth's spiritual energy had been absorbed by Tiandaozi and Hongmeng. With the loss over the past ten thousand years, the earth's spiritual energy was now almost equal to nothing. Every cyan molecule entering the Dantian was like
The water droplets merge into the sea and have no effect at all.
Tianjiu thinks this way, if he can cultivate some spiritual power according to the old man's method, maybe his strength will become stronger. If it comes to a life and death situation, maybe it can be of some use.
While practicing, Tianjiu also paid close attention to the old man's every move.
The old man did not return to the Mother Cauldron of Time. He sat down cross-legged with his eyes closed tightly. His hands gently rested on his legs. After a while, invisible whirlpools seemed to rise around the old man.
Tianjiu noticed that the green aura above his head was draining rapidly, and it seemed to be running towards the old man. However, these had little impact on him. There were still some cyan molecules in the air that ran to the top of his head and were inhaled by him.
Half an hour later, the old man's complexion gradually improved, turning from black-green to black-gray, and then to blue-black again.
Tianjiu's mood also became anxious. These changes in the old man showed that the old man's injuries were getting better. The better the old man was, the worse Tianjiu became. Now he felt more and more that he was the lamb to be slaughtered.;
