Chapter 252: Earthquake and sky split, sword art left behind (4k)
Putting away the crape myrtle soft sword not far away, Zhao Qing recalled the process of his hundred-day retreat, and also felt a little sad.
She suddenly realized that if she hadn't left a spiritual imprint on Abi and suppressed the instinct of reincarnation at the critical moment, the probability of success would have been reduced by at least 30%.
At the beginning, I had a vague premonition that Abi would help me achieve breakthroughs in the future, but I didn't expect that it would be realized in this way.
So, with your own breakthrough method, if you leave a lot of mental imprints on others in advance, you should be able to greatly reduce the chance of failure, right?
Zhao Qing thought secretly in his heart and realized that the essence of this method is to strengthen the connection between the soul and the world after it is completely separated from the body. It is equivalent to a warning signal and a beacon when you are on the verge of being lost.
Theoretically, the more spiritual imprints left on another person, the brighter the "lighting beacon" will become and the stronger the effect.
However, the brightness of this "lighthouse" should have a limit, and it mostly depends on the spiritual state of the person being marked. The clearer and brighter the mind, the brighter the "spiritual light source" it can carry. p>
After thinking about the improvement plan for the realm breakthrough, Zhao Qing began to slowly walk towards the outside world, and suddenly sensed something unusual about the surrounding environment.
In her induction, on both sides of the thick wall of black ice, there was originally a situation where Yin Qi and Yang Qi were temporarily evenly matched, but after a hundred days, there were some changes in the rise and fall of Yin Qi and Yang Qi. The momentum of Yin Qi surged, and the pressure
The Yang Qi becomes restless.
After this period of seclusion, the yin and yang here have reached a new state of balance, including me. In other words, if I leave this place, the yin and yang here will be instantly out of balance, leading to drastic changes.
?
With a thought in his mind, Zhao Qing has already judged the current problem and confirmed the cause and effect of the changes here. It should be that in the process of his transformation into the "Ultimate Yin Wuji", he unconsciously attracted a large amount of Yin Qi and consumed himself.
point, a fragile balance is temporarily maintained.
Boyangfu, Taishi of the Western Zhou Dynasty, believed that earthquakes would occur when the qi of heaven and earth were out of order, "yang was suppressed and could not come out, and yin was suppressed and could not evaporate."
"The Star Sutra" also says: "Either the sky splits, or the earth trembles. In both cases, there is excess qi and insufficient yang. In the earthquake, there is excess yin, and in the case of the sky splitting, there is insufficient yang, both of which are strong and strong."
After the balance is broken, disasters such as local earthquakes will occur here, which will be much more powerful than the underground spring eruption that I previously predicted. After the true "unity of man and nature", my ability to perceive the environment has improved.
There have been many improvements and it is obviously more accurate.
Understanding the danger involved, Zhao Qing was slightly frightened, and judged that the longer he waited, the more unstable the balance of this place would be, and the greater the damage the accumulated energy would eventually cause, so he should escape as soon as possible.
Through complete control of her body, she realized the method of action with the least resistance in the water. She quickly went upstream along the excavated underground ice channel, trying to escape from the cold blue water pool before the yin and yang energy alternated and the underground magma erupted. She tried to stay as far away as possible.
source of the earthquake to reduce possible trauma.
Passing through the ice tunnel that was nearly a hundred feet long, breaking out of the blue and lush black ice layer at the bottom of the pool, Zhao Qing quickly floated upwards, and had already sensed the huge energy fluctuations emitted by the rapid changes in yin and yang below. p>
She once again caught a glimpse of the long silvery fish and translucent shrimps that were also floating at high speed in the pond. Knowing that these weak creatures were likely to suffer heavy casualties in this disaster, she couldn't help but have some feelings of "the world is ruthless, but all living beings are sentimental"; p>
And found that his mind has become more sensitive than before, and he has made a clear breakthrough in "other minds". He is no longer restricted by species, and naturally senses that these fish and shrimps are far weaker than human thoughts, and understands
The fear in their hearts.
The next moment, Zhao Qing was a few feet away from the water, and was caught up from below by a shock wave whose speed far exceeded the speed of sound in the air, and had an astonishing collision with her protective aura.
……
A moment ago, Gongsun Jun calmly listened to the detailed reports of the other two disciples, his brows furrowed more and more, and he couldn't help snorting and scolded:
"Unexpectedly, you two have followed the rules in the valley and have good character. However, after only staying outside the valley for more than ten days, you have turned into cheating and slippery, and you have become tainted with the glitz and glamor of the outside world. Humph, one and two, both
What I said there was completely untrue."
"How can a young female fairy around fifteen years old be able to make up a story? She doesn't take me, the Valley Master, to heart at all..."
"Valley Master, what I said..." One of the disciples was about to retort, but suddenly his body shook, his footing became unstable, and he fell to the ground.
"Earthquake?" The five people present spoke in unison, their faces suddenly changing color.
Due to several undetectable foreshocks a month ago, the birds, animals, insects and fish in the valley had related sensations, and became a little restless and the atmosphere became abnormal. Gongsun Jun had a premonition that something big was going to happen in advance, and sent him to
People came out of the valley to investigate.
However, he never imagined that this major event related to Jueqing Valley would actually be a violent earthquake, and it was caused by a visitor from outside the valley.
At this moment, the sky and the earth shook violently, and the surrounding objects shook together. The air currents stirred up, causing strong winds to rush upward. A large amount of earth, sand, and gravel shot up all over the sky as light as nothing, and the rocks under their feet were violently violent.
Shaking, as if falling into an abyss.
At the same time, a long crack suddenly appeared in the clouds high in the sky, dividing the entire cloud into two pieces, revealing a strange rainbow light, as if the sky was split open.
Upon noticing this horrifying situation, Gongsun Jun was shocked. He ignored the four disciples beside him and quickly pulled out the golden knife he carried with him. He inserted it heavily into the stone wall beside the mountain road and went deep into it to fix it. To prevent yourself from falling into the deep valley during this earthquake.
The four apprentices were even more frightened, but they did not have the appropriate sharp weapons or sufficient skills to imitate their master's actions. They could only stand in an unstable posture, lean inward as much as possible, and dig their fingers into the gaps in the mountain wall. in.
The earthquake lasted for more than ten breaths, but to Gongsun Jun and the other five people on the edge of Broken Heart Cliff, it felt like more than ten years.
Later, when they felt the shock stop and just breathed a sigh of relief, the abyss at the edge of the Broken Heart Cliff that had been shrouded in fog all year round dissipated, and a white mist-like water column spewed out from the bottom up, and at the top Standing there is a fairy in blue who looks as graceful as a fairy.
Seeing the peaceful gaze from the other party, Gongsun Jun and the other five people felt an indescribable strange feeling in their hearts, as if they had come into contact with a vast, boundless, sacred and immeasurable new world. Immortals and gods gave rise to infinite awe.
Could it be that the earth-shaking earthquake just now was actually caused by the birth of this immortal? What kind of magical power is this? How extraordinary is it?
Gongsun Jun, who had been scolding his apprentice not long ago for not believing in the theory of immortals and gods, was stunned at this moment and fell into an unprecedented shock. He didn't even notice that his hand holding the handle of the knife loosened in the aftershocks.
More than ten feet away, Zhao Qing just used the power of heaven and earth mobilized by his soul to block the impact of the earthquake, and with the help of the water column erupted from the cold pool, he jumped to an altitude of more than a hundred feet in one fell swoop. Zhao Qing stared at himself and the edge of the Broken Heart Cliff. At a short distance, the colorful lightsaber suddenly unsheathed and slashed out a dazzling sword light towards the water column that was about to fall back.
As the sword light that seemed like a rainbow of fairy energy exploded on the water column, turning it into a mist like colorful auspicious clouds, she moved ten feet toward the cliff side out of thin air, and landed on a place where a lot of gravel rolled down. On the Broken Heart Cliff, there is no dust on the whole body.
He smoothly pulled back Gongsun Jun and others who were about to fall off the cliff due to shock. Sensing that the yin and yang turbulence underground had subsided, Zhao Qing sheathed his sword and swayed lightly in the air before disappearing in front of them. , leaving behind a story of immortal deeds passed down from generation to generation.
……
Sighing that the immortal disappeared without a trace as soon as he appeared, Gongsun Jun was both surprised and happy. He took his four disciples back to the mountain road where they came from, and prepared to count the losses caused by the earthquake.
On the way back to the valley, he couldn't help but think of the saying in the famous book "The Mirror of the Sky": "When the sky splits and sees light, there will be blood; if the sky splits and sees people, the country will perish."
With the birth of such a sword-wielding immortal, is it possible that the world outside Jueqing Valley, as "Sky Mirror" said, will see large-scale wars within a few years?
At the peak on the other side of the Broken Heart Cliff, Zhao Qing stood on a protruding rock, looking at the clouds in the sky that seemed to be divided into two by gods, feeling the strong wind blowing in front of him, and he felt something in his heart.
Lots of relevant insights.
For her, the personal experience of the huge power of the yin and yang between heaven and earth, and the experience of using the water column to rush into the sky, made her think more deeply about the use of the power of heaven and earth.
Vaguely, Zhao Qing understood Xiaoyaozi's original knack of riding the wind and controlling the air. His perspective on things in the world had upgraded from the level of artistic conception in Lu Xiaofeng's world to one that included changes in Yin and Yang and the Five Elements, and he clearly understood what he saw.
Everything is just a shallower level in the vast universe.
Referring to the changes in yin and yang in this earthquake, she initially created a unique trick of "earthquake and sky splitting" based on the method of "using yin to force yang", which can inject "taiyin true water" into the ground and break the balance of yin and yang underground.
In this state, small things can be used to make big things happen, causing small-scale earthquakes.
The power of this unique move mainly depends on the distribution of yin and yang qi underground. When the balance of yin and yang is very stable, it will not be able to exert much effect.
But as long as you find a suitable area, the power that can be unleashed can be so great that it is beyond imagination. It is not impossible to shake the earth and crack the sky, destroying cities and mountains; it is just a matter of whether it will affect yourself.
It’s hard to say.
Since the manipulation of Taiyin True Water cannot yet reach the ultimate level, currently, although Zhao Qing has created the "earthquake and sky-shattering", he is unable to display it.
……
The earthquake in the Jueqing Valley this time was not large in scale. It was mainly concentrated in the area around Duanchang Cliff. It did not cause any casualties. It only destroyed a few houses in the valley that were close together.
After the aftershocks basically disappeared, Zhao Qing returned to the cold pool under Broken Heart Cliff and dived into it again, hoping to explore the power of this disaster.
In addition to the black ice at the bottom of the pool cracking and being filled with rocks that fell and rolled down from high places, she unexpectedly discovered that due to the pressure relief through the underground ice cave in another valley, the earthquake caused no damage to the Hantan area.
Not too big.
Thinking that he had not yet seen the scenery behind the passage, Zhao Qing dived into the ice cave, passed through a somewhat collapsed ice cellar that sloped upward, and came to the water at the exit.
Unlike the cold water pool on the other side, which only has cold-resistant species, although the water pool here is smaller, the species of fish and shrimp in the water are much richer. There are dozens of fruit trees growing around it, plus the lush flowers and grass beside the water.
The scenery is pleasant and it is a good place to live.
She was about to look around twice and leave after satisfying her curiosity. Suddenly, she discovered a dozen or so inscriptions on the edge of the gap where a newly fallen rock connected with the cliff.
Pushing the tens of thousands of pounds of rock blocking the words two feet away, Zhao Qing looked at the thousands of newly exposed words and couldn't help but feel a little shocked.
"Returning to younger sisters tends to Wuwu, Wuwu tends to be the same person, and the same people tend to be great. A turns to C, B turns to Geng, Geng turns to Gui. The friendship between Zi and Chou, the friendship between Chen and Wu, the friendship between Wu Wei. The wind and thunder are a change, the mountains and rivers are changing.
It is a change, water and fire are a change. Qian Kun stimulates each other, Zhen Dui stimulates each other, Li Xun stimulates each other. Three increases make five, five increases make nine..."
Isn't this the general formula of the Dugu Nine Swords? Zhao Qing browsed through the nine complicated sword formulas carved on the mountain wall one by one, thinking deeply in his heart.
According to her guess, Dugu Qiubai chased the sweeping monk to this place and won a great victory. Out of excitement, he casually carved the "Dugu Nine Swords" that contained his martial arts philosophy.
Later, perhaps we encountered a similar earthquake. The huge rocks fell to the edge, and the soil fell between the gaps, gradually accumulating, and covering it up.
In "The Legend of Heaven and the Dragon Slayer", Guo Xiang came to the Zhongnan Mountain Ancient Tomb, but Yang Guo and Xiao Longnu did not return, and no one knew where she was. She probably returned to live in this beautiful valley.
Over time, they naturally discovered the sword formula carved on the mountain wall behind this rock, and recognized its origin from the writing on it, as well as the "Qi-breaking style" that included the use of heavy swords and wooden swords.
, and passed it on.
……
After staying in this valley for more than ten days, Zhao Qing pondered the subtle manipulation of the "Taiyin True Water" after the "Reversal of the Universe". At the same time, he analyzed the newly discovered "Dugu Nine Swords" and used "Yi" for it.
The yin and yang changes in the Sutra include all the moves in the world and I am amazed.
For her now, the "Nine Swords of Dugu", which has broken all the moves in the world, and its artistic conception of no moves, can no longer bring any inspiration.
However, Dugu Qiubai's astonishing attainments in the "Book of Changes" are undoubtedly much ahead of Zhao Qing, and perhaps even better than Xiaoyaozi, who is about to become enlightened. It is worthy of her reference and learning.
After thinking about it, Zhao Qing decided that before looking for a secluded place near Xiangyang, he would first go to the "Eternal Spring Valley", which has magical spring water that allows people in the valley to stay young and live over a hundred years. p>
In her expectation, the spring water in the "Eternal Spring Valley" could have such a miraculous longevity effect, and it must contain extremely valuable secrets.
