Chapter 7: At the gate of the city where the Semi-Saint's class begins, Xu Xiaoshou is practicing Taoism and refining spirits.
"Rumble..."
A huge and dull explosion soon came from the surrounding area, as if the sound was muffled in a drum.
This change happened too fast.
Almost immediately after Zhong Yuanzi knocked down the plaque on the city wall.
Everyone looked around, and the second real body turned around suddenly, and suddenly they saw the source of the sound, which was the out-of-control Greedy God...
No!
It's inside it!
Greedy God briefly broke free from the shackles of the blood shadow copper coins, but at this moment, explosions continued to occur inside his body, and his body was distorted by the explosions.
Its neck, abdomen, and back quickly bulged into huge bumps one after another, which soon exploded and rushed out of the body.
“Boom, boom, boom, boom—”
Blood splattered everywhere, and the God of Greed was blown from the inside out and riddled with holes.
What jumped out from his body with the sound of explosions was a pile of various body parts belonging to "people".
There are limbs, internal organs, bones, and even a cute head with a fluffy afro...
Zhong Yuanzi!
The various parts of Zhong Yuanzi's body that were torn apart were pieced together at high altitude, and soon turned into a mutilated version of Zhong Yuanzi's body with one arm and a broken leg.
The second real body was stunned.
What ability is this?
Without waiting for much thought, Zhong Yuanzi under the plaque at the entrance to Nancheng melted into a pool of blood, then quickly transformed into an arm and merged with it.
The little bit of blood that the second true body had just touched was originally intended to be fed to the imitator, imitating the use of all attributes.
At this moment, it also squirmed and turned into a calf covered with leg hair. It flew away and inserted into the incomplete version of Zhong Yuanzi's body, forming a complete human body.
"good!"
Zhong Yuanzi drank in the air, not knowing what to do, but under the cover of the holy power, he quickly put on another set of explosion-proof clothing.
He came back again, just like the injuries he suffered just now, none of which he had ever suffered before!
"Ah this..."
The second real body lowered his head and glanced at his hands, and saw that the blood of the half-saint had disappeared.
Looking at the south city gate again, the guy who was kicked out by him had indeed disappeared.
Is this new born in front of me Zhong Yuanzi’s true body?
"Isn't it right?"
At this moment, the shadow of Xin Gugu flashed through the mind of the second real body, and he suddenly realized something.
"Blood attribute?!"
He was sure that the person he had just hit was Zhong Yuanzi's true form, and the latter was indeed injured.
But because it was a critical moment, Zhong Yuanzi injected all his power into it with the help of the semi-saint's blood that spurted out of his body at that moment.
After being divided between the Greedy God and himself, before being digested, he quickly evolved and re-integrated, and completed his "rebirth" in an alternative way of "gecko tail cutting"?
"How to kill such a person?"
The second true form finally realized how terrifying a semi-saint-level spiritual refiner with all attributes and a guy who has studied all kinds of things is.
If this guy's spirit, body, and mind cannot be extinguished in an instant, I'm afraid he won't need a semi-saint incarnation, and his existence itself will be equivalent to a half-immortal body!
And to be able to destroy Zhong Yuanzi with one move...
Who in the world has this certainty?
Even the death of Yan Wuse had to rely on Void Island for a whole game to draw out the battle line and wear it out bit by bit.
You have to make Yan Wuse no longer want to live before you can really kill him!
Therefore, if we want to kill this person, we have to repeat the situation of Void Island at the gate of South City and exhaust Zhong Yuanzi bit by bit?
The second truth directly denies such nonsense.
He changed his approach, with a bit of curiosity on his face, and looked in awe at Zhong Yuanzi, who still didn't have much hostility towards him at this moment:
"Senior Zhong is amazing!"
"Junior just gave it a try. I didn't expect senior to be able to block my blow... By the way, what question did you ask me just now?"
People outside the venue were immediately struck by this face.
If you can't beat me, start to get close?
Even Ye Xiaotian, a native of Meisi, had never reacted to Xu Xiaoshou's smooth transformation.
"arrest!"
Du Dufang's Qin Xin movements are extremely fast.
The Greedy God Queen, who was the first to arrest the heavy injuries and then quickly repair her body, stared at Zhong Yuanzi with a slight gaze:
"Mr. Zhong is back!"
"Let's ask all questions after we capture this person."
Zhong Yuanzi suddenly became unhappy and waved his hand behind him, "Wait a minute!"
Looking back at the imaginative young man who was talking to me, he said regardless of previous suspicions: "Tell me directly, did you realize it, or did someone else teach you?"
As he said that, Zhong Yuanzi spun his foot and stepped out an extremely dim one, much inferior to the second true body...
Fire-type road plate!
"Bull Demon..."
Seeing this, the second real person almost burst into tears.
How could he?
He also has a system?
This is impossible!
The battle at the gate of South City seemed to have been pressed on the pause button.
The eyes of the spectators outside the field popped out, and Ye Xiaotian inside the field was dumbfounded. Even Zhong Yuanzi’s companions...
Fang Wenxin and Yu Lao were equally astonished, staring at the Xu Xiaoshou-style "Secret Formation Diagram" at Zhong Yuanzi's feet, falling into confusion.
At this moment, everyone can be sure of one thing:
Neither Zhong Yuanzi's nor Xu Xiaoshou's Mysterious Formation is a Mysterious Formation, but a prototype of a Mysterious Formation.
Prototype!
This is the key!
But the problem comes again...
Before Xu Xiaoshou and before Zhong Yuanzi showed this skill, there was no other person on the mainland who had shown such ability.
Are all these damn "research scholars" hiding?
If he hadn't been forced into a hurry, even Holy Mountain wouldn't have known that Mr. Zhong would do this ten years later?
Fang Wen had more on his mind than the others.
He knew that this meant that a new path had been opened up in the spirit refining world!
The secret of attributes is no longer either zero or one, it can be 0.5, 0.7...
It can grow!
Even he temporarily suppressed the urge to take action.
Compared to a ghost beast, the change in the overall pattern of the spirit refining world seems to be more important?
It's hard to say, this is just like what happened in the Battle of the Ten Seats when Kuileihan first realized his spiritual thoughts and was not favored by others.
No one paid attention to it at that time.
Things are different now.
In today's world, we have a correct view of genius, and we know that one person can really change the world.
Looking at Mr. Zhong’s reaction, it is clear that this is a matter bigger than the sky. Whoever comes has to wait behind him!
Fang Wenxin glanced at Greedy God and restrained her move.
In the middle of the battle, Zhong Yuanzi couldn't help but clasp his hands, circling around the youthful young man. Not only did he look excited, but he also muttered something:
"I've been studying it for hundreds of years!"
"I've always believed that nothing happens overnight."
"In other words, as spiritual refiners, we ourselves have no way of knowing what step the process has progressed from zero to one."
"This must be a 'mistake'!"
"The fault does not lie with the spiritual refining master, nor does it lie with the spiritual refining path. The fault is that no one has discovered this secret yet. My friend, am I right or not?"
"Ah, yes, yes!" The second real body nodded in agreement, somewhat clearly seeing this person's character - he is really a researcher, in terms of expression!
Zhong Yuanzi snapped and put his hand on the young man's shoulder. His palm was bleeding without even realizing it.
This time, the second real body did not dare to resist, and screamed the true name of the deity while trembling in his heart.
"You saint slaves have a water ghost. He was Yu Mo from our spiritual department before. I did this experiment with him."
"But he told me that this was impossible, and he didn't know how far he was from the secret of water."
"I asked, 'You should have a foundation for your own path, maybe 30%, maybe 70%, you can always come up with a rough idea.'"
"He said, 'No, I always feel like I'm only one step away, but after taking this step, I feel like I'm still half a step away, and I can't reach it for a long time...'"
Speaking of this meal, Zhong Yuanzi held down the young man who dared not move and looked at the white-haired Taoist boy on one side:
"Is this how you feel?"
Ye Xiaotian wiped the sweat from his forehead, glanced at Xu Xiaoshou's expression without any feedback, and raised his voice gently:
"yes?"
Nothing and nothing!
So, what is the situation now?
To fight or not to fight?
Do you want to fight the ghost beasts or save the ghost beasts, or is your problem the most important?
If the question is important, should I answer it honestly or dishonestly... Xu Xiaoshou, you should give me a signal!
The second true form really can't give a signal right now.
He was very interested in Zhong Yuanzi's research, and at the same time he also knew that the current situation was quite strange.
But he is very experienced.
Strange or something, which battle has never seen a sudden change in style?
If the horse can still run forward, the situation is not bad. Then our first principle is: don’t destroy this balance!
"He said 'yes', Mr. Zhong, wake up?"
The second real person said something for the dean, and patted Zhong Yuanzi on the shoulder who had stopped in the snow and continued to speak.
I don’t know if he was thinking about it, but Zhong Yuanzi, who had been down for about ten seconds, felt as if his brain had been restarted after being stimulated, and the turning point came very suddenly:
"I call it the Dao Diagram, which is an 'intermediate process' between the Mysterious Array Diagram and the innate attributes."
"Because it's still under research, I haven't shown it before, and the Holy Temple doesn't know about it... I feel like they will destroy my personal research, well, I feel..."
Zhong Yuanzi squatted down and pointed at the fire-type road map that was slowly rotating on his feet, giving a lesson to the spiritual masters who were lying on the city wall and squatting on the mountain in the distance, paying close attention:
"The master touches the Tao, and the throne realizes the Tao."
"The complexity and brilliance of the Dao patterns on the Dao Diagram, to a certain extent, reflect the progress of our spiritual masters' understanding of the Dao of Heaven."
"Just like me, I personally don't like the fire element. I understand it by about 70%, 80%, or at most no more than 10%. The main directions of exploration are temperature, yin and yang. I am more interested in the coldness of fire...
"
"Well, I'm off topic. Let's put it this way. A person's energy in life is limited. Even if he has full attributes, he still has to make a choice..."
Unknowingly, the people on the mountain and on the city wall were approaching.
Even if Zhong Yuanzi only mentioned it in a redundant way, he unconsciously revealed some elemental knowledge and exploration direction. To outsiders, it would be a treasure.
Some people's whole body has started to fluctuate with Taoist rhyme, and they have obviously entered a state of enlightenment.
Semi-Saint’s sermon, the Elemental God Envoy’s class begins!
For most people, this opportunity is rarer than being born at the Ranming Ruins.
After all, there is still a life-and-death crisis at the ruins, and Zhong Yuanzi lets people enjoy the spring breeze and rain. Now, he is guiding the way from the immortal!
Fang Wenxin, Mr. Yu couldn't help but get closer.
They are both spiritual refiners and attach equal importance to this elemental book.
Even Ye Xiaotian, who was from Meisi, also approached. Like other spiritual masters, he looked at the so-called "Dao Diagram" at Zhong Yuanzi's feet and began to study it.
The scene was suddenly harmonious.
"Show me yours."
Zhong Yuanzi suddenly pointed at the white-haired Taoist boy, as if he was naming important study representatives in class.
Ye Xiaotian was confused. He raised his head and looked at Fang Wenxin, who was a few steps away. His heart almost jumped out of his throat.
When did you come here?
He glanced at Xu Xiaoshou from the corner of his eye, and after seeing Xu Xiaoshou's imperceptible nod, he stepped out of the space secret formation diagram.
"Everyone come and see!"
Zhong Yuanzi pointed at Ye Xiaotian's feet.
Fang Wenxin held his breath. He looked closer and saw that it was really vivid and bright...
It’s really scary!
When Ye Xiaotian turned his eyes, he could see Fang Lao Hongyi's nose hair leaking out!
The Zhan Dao on the mountain in the distance was too empty. Hearing the sound, he no longer dared to step forward. Hu Di rushed over, forming a huge encirclement.
There were dozens of people here, and there were figures flying closer in the distance...
In addition to the manic greedy god "Hoho" who was abandoned, the Meisi people who practiced ancient swordsmanship also found it difficult to integrate.
The spiritual masters gathered at the gate of Nancheng, almost forming a bustling vegetable market!
Ye Xiaotian only felt that he was the best piece of meat among them, and he was stabbed by the eager eyes, which made him feel uncomfortable all over!
"Do you see this Dao pattern clearly? He is talking about the concept of teleportation. I remember that the first space attribute spiritual formation master developed a space ring from this Dao pattern."
"This whole thing... look at this white-haired guy, what he has mastered is 100% of the secret formation diagram, it is perfect!"
"If you look at mine again, mine will no longer work, it will be dull..."
Zhong Yuanzi said a lot, turned his feet, and switched to a road map with spatial attributes.
But what he mastered was even worse than what Xu Xiaoshou had. Obviously, spatial attributes were not his major.
"Yes, that makes sense."
"Mr. Zhong is right, it's definitely not either zero or one. There should be such a visual process in between. I understand!"
"Mr. Zhong, I have a question, how to cultivate this great road map?" Some people who are open-minded and eager to learn have already started asking questions.
Zhong Yuanzi was stunned for a moment when he heard the sound, then frowned and scratched his head, "It's easy."
"Huh?" Everyone was looking forward to it.
"How to put it, gathering, flowing, feeling...when you need it, it will come out. My method is to refer to the normal mystical formation diagram and let the power flow under my feet..."
"Oh? I'll bleed too, okay~~"
"You can't seem to pull it out, let me try and drink!"
"You can't do it, it's up to me!"
"..."
The vegetable market is busy again.
There was a bang at the gate of the south city, and the ghost transformed and the Xigu appeared.
He was startled for a moment.
When he saw Senior Fang and Ye Xiaotian side by side, Mr. Yu pushed the other person and said "Don't squeeze" and climbed onto the neck of the person next to him, while the other dozens of people were surrounded by the explosives like they were constipated and making obscene comments.
When the sound...
"It turned out to be a nightmare!"
Xi shook his head and slapped himself hard, wanting to end this terrible scene.
"wrong!"
"I'm not dreaming!"
His eyes were solemn, and when pain hit his face, Xi realized that all this was not a dream, nor was it an illusory swordsmanship.
The people from the Holy Temple and the Holy Slaves really brought together the casual cultivators inside and outside Yujing City to defecate collectively at the gate of Nancheng!
"In broad daylight, everything is clear..."
"What are you doing!"
It was so outrageous that no one noticed his approach, so Xi squeezed into the crowd and immediately saw a group of spiritual refiners studying the secret formation diagram.
Oh, it turns out I was researching this, okay, okay...
"Squeeze your mother! Get out!"
"Hey, you are not the leader of the foreign department... the ancient sword cultivator, get out!"
"Go away, this is my seat!"
Xi pushed his way in and was squeezed out by a group of people.
He looked around in shock, and immediately caught a glimpse of Mr. Siren, who was also standing at the outermost edge and couldn't say anything.
"Has..."
Xi subconsciously wanted to say hello.
I quickly realized that this was the person on the first floor in the sky, the enemy!
God, what happened to this world?
How come everyone can get together and have a lively discussion?
Am I lagging behind, or are you going behind my back and collectively rebelling against the Holy Mountain? Is it the guidance of the Taoist Palace Master?
Xi, who felt that he had been abandoned by the Taoist Palace Master and joined the Xuanji Palace Master's camp, just wanted to ask about all this.
He saw the wry smile on Mr. Siren's face.
The other party spread his hands, indicating that the ancient sword cultivator didn't need to say anything because he didn't belong to this group at all and couldn't be squeezed in.
"..."
Xi felt his ears were deafened.
All sounds are moving away from your brain.
He racked his brain and couldn't figure out why, until he suddenly caught a glimpse of Xu Xiaoshou, whose presence in the crowd was almost zero...
Xu Xiaoshou!
Yes, he is here too!
Then there is an explanation, it must be his fault!
The reason why Xi noticed the existence of Xu Xiaoshou was because this guy suddenly stood up and spoke:
"I don't agree with Mr. Zhong's statement!"
His firm voice was like a breath of fresh air among the noisy crowd at the vegetable market.
Because among the unbearable voices of "um um ah ah", no one spoke with an absolute tone, even Zhong Lao's voice was a bit uncertain.
"Who are you? You don't agree with this... uh, Master Shou?"
"Master Shou, what do you have to say? Speak quickly, I'm all ears!"
"Here! Here! Look here, I have set up the bench. Master Shou, stand a little taller..."
"I can fly!" The second true body was happy.
Everyone turns doubt into expectation.
For example, if the elemental god is a teacher, one word can make people realize the truth.
Master Shou is an assistant. In short, he definitely does not belong to the group of students below. After all, he knows how to draw the Dao.
He is the same type of person as Mr. Zhong - a research scholar!
"Say, little friend." Zhong Yuanzi chuckled, with only kindness on his face. He recognized this little friend he had made for many years.
"Yuan...Ye Bansheng's, this one is at most 70% or 80%, definitely not 100%, definitely not perfect!" The second true form pointed at the space mysteries array diagram and said something shocking.
Ye Xiaotian frowned when he heard this.
All of a sudden, he handed his back to Fang Wenxin, pushed him away with his butt, and glared at Xu Xiaoshou.
They are all geniuses.
They are all good scholars.
They are all top-notch and stand out from the crowd. Who can endure the insults of others?
"You guys really dare to say such arrogant words, but do you know how difficult it is for me, your dean, to cultivate this secret of space?" Ye Xiaotian has actually been unhappy with Xu Xiaoshou for a long time.
Behind him, Fang Wenxin was knocked slightly dazed by his butt.
He looked at Ye Xiaotian who was opening his mouth to curse, then at Mr. Zhong and Xu Xiaoshou, they seemed to have woken up as well.
Then, he fell into the same kind of confusion and shock.
How dare he...
What's going on here...
Mr. Yu didn't take it too seriously to watch the excitement, and completely integrated into it, riding on the neck of someone who didn't know who it was, and said with excitement, "Xu Xiaoshou, come on!"
As soon as the second real body's footsteps turned, the space disk swiveled away the person next to it, and at the same time invited Mr. Si Ren in.
Mei Si was stunned, he immediately became the center of everyone's attention!
Guinea pig?
"This is the Ancient Sword Master, an expert in the Heart Sword Technique, and the controller of Prajna Wu..." The second true form pointed at Mr. Mito and introduced him before saying:
"My teacher also knows the secret formation diagram. Although it is the secret formation diagram of ancient swordsmanship, it has the same effect as the spirit refining."
"The road to spiritual refining has no end yet. Ancient swordsmanship has an end, right? Sword God Gu Louying is one, right?"
Everyone nodded.
Even Fang Wenxin was attracted back by this example.
After all, he is also a spiritual refiner. He can become a semi-saint. He is no exception to learning, is a genius, and is interested in the Great Dao.
Xi looked at Mr. Siren, who had become a test subject, and then turned his gaze back to observe Xu Xiaoshou from a distance.
This was the first time he had observed a person of his own age at such a close range and without hostility.
I have to say, he is more charming than me!
He talked and laughed freely among the Semi-Saints, and even dared to question Mr. Zhong...
"My teacher is a genius, but you dare to say that just because he has mastered the Heart Sword Art, Prajna Wu, has he reached the end of the Heart Sword Art? No!"
"There are eighteen sword styles in ancient swordsmanship. Among them, only Love Swordsmanship has the third realm. Is it because other swordsmanship should not have it? No!"
"You are so stupid that you dare to think that by cultivating the secret formation diagram, you have completed 100% of the journey of spiritual refining!"
Xi watched Xu Xiaoshou condescendingly shouting and scolding a group of people, and for the first time he felt the strong spiritual impact that this peer could bring:
"The reason why the swordsmanship of love has a third realm is because the sword god practiced the nine major swordsmanships and eventually became a god and ancestor with his swordsmanship!"
"This does not mean that other swordsmanship does not have a third realm, because if my teacher can be called a god and ancestor, Prajna Supreme, there will be another name, another sword style!"
Xi's body trembled.
Mei Siren's pupils also trembled, and a Taoist rhyme began to circulate around his body.
Before Xu Xiaoshou could stop, his shouts were deafening and thought-provoking:
"Once the secret of space is cultivated, if it is 100%, then I, Half Saint Ye, will no longer be a semi-sage of secret, but a Holy Emperor, and I will be called a god and ancestor!"
"From this point of view, not even the water ghost, not even me, Senior Ye, has reached the end of the road to spiritual refining."
"So, Zhong Yuanzi, you are wrong!"
"The Dao Diagram may be popularized by everyone in the spirit refining world, but if your concept is wrong, the whole world will be wrong!"
"If you dare to draw conclusions before your path is clear, then you will be a sinner in the Holy Spirit Continent in the future!" ()
