Chapter 341 Practice (double monthly vote plus update event 3)
Six years later.
In the refining room.
Fang Xi blew out a wisp of elixir fire and continued to refine a piece of emerald green talisman.
A little bit of cinnabar seeped into the inside of the talisman, turning into mysterious runes all around.
"The spiritual thought is used as the pen, the spiritual sand is used as the ink...Sealed with insect wax, the jade talisman is completed!"
Recalling the manufacturing instructions in the jade slip, Fang Xi released her powerful spiritual thoughts, causing the runes to quickly outline around the jade talisman, stabilize it, and then seal it with a layer of spiritual wax.
By this time, this jade token was no different from the 'Thousand-mile Messenger Talisman' that Fang Xi had obtained before.
"The last step... split into two, become one and united, go!"
Fang Xi seized a certain opportunity and made a move with her finger.
Wave!
A green sword light flashed through, splitting the jade talisman into two evenly.
Bang!
The two jade tablets fell and were grabbed by a big hand formed by the gathering of mana.
"If I refine this talisman, I'm already very familiar with it...it's not easy."
Fang Xi held two freshly baked messenger charms and sighed.
In the past few years, the energy he invested in jade talismans was only in alchemy.
After consuming a lot of resources, he finally got started and successfully refined the first jade talisman.
Through my own thinking and the foundation of Talisman Tao, I discovered several minor problems in the refining method and improved them without resorting to the Nine-Eyed Bodhisattva.
Now, we can achieve stable output.
From the perspective of investment, it is naturally a loss.
But judging from my own improvement in the way of talismans, it is completely worth it.
Thinking of this, Fang Xi took out another jade talisman.
After the same elixir fire sacrifice, his expression moved inexplicably, and he blew up a basin of silver sand and gravel.
The sand and stone were melted by the elixir fire in mid-air, turning into strands of silver threads, which were submerged into the jade talisman, forming a somewhat incomplete seal script.
"seal up!"
When Fang Xi saw the seal script taking shape, she immediately clasped her hands together, and the magic power at the peak of the mid-stage pill formation surged out.
Wrapped in cyan light, the jade talisman instantly solidified, leaving the incomplete silver seal script deeply imprinted on the center of the jade talisman!
"It's done..."
Fang Xi held this jade talisman and couldn't help but feel very emotional.
Ever since he was able to observe the "All Heavens Treasure Mirror" with his spiritual consciousness, he has been trying to copy the patterns on it.
Later, the way of talismans advanced by leaps and bounds, and with the help of Zhong Hongyu's 'Void Spiritual Root' when building the foundation, I could barely remember a few incomplete symbols.
It's just that the incomplete runes cannot be left on ordinary rune paper.
Even third-level talisman paper cannot bear it and will spontaneously ignite!
And now...
A jade talisman with incomplete silver runes carved into it is quite stable!
"I finally found a way to use those runes... This silver rune obviously involves the power of the void, and it is also quite useful in the research of the teleportation array..."
This rune was named 'Void Seal Script' by Fang Xi, and it was considered to be the least incomplete one that he found.
Even so, nearly half of it is missing.
But after being sealed in the jade talisman, it actually possesses some considerable power.
"The art of jade talismans was originally invented by monks... Even after the ancient cultivation methods were lost, today's monks can still reproduce and improve them..."
"This jade talisman of mine can barely be regarded as a semi-self-created brand new jade talisman, although... it is only half completed."
"I bought the method of making jade talismans mostly to copy these silver runes..."
The corners of Fang Xi's mouth raised slightly.
That Master Qingyang can be said to have done a very loss-making business.
In the past few years, the other party has been in constant contact, promoting jade talismans, and inviting Fang Xi to act together, but Fang Xi has simply ignored them.
I also witnessed the way his tone changed from being arrogant and self-reliant at the beginning, to gradually calming down, and then to the subtle humiliation at the end... just like a young man who has experienced various traps and suffered severe beatings from society.
"This new jade talisman... its effect should be related to the void."
Fang Xi held the jade talisman and thought about it, but did not inject magic power into it.
After all, he had only a partial understanding of the effects of this incomplete rune.
If Xiaohan Cave collapses, it will not be beautiful.
After putting away the jade talisman, Fang Xi went to the practice room again, sat cross-legged on the futon, and began to practice unshakably every day.
On his body, green and yellow colors flash alternately, and there is a faint purple energy rising from the withered golden elixir in his body...
A few hours later.
Fang Xi opened her eyes: "Finally, I have completely perfected the fifteenth level of skills... Now if I meditate again, I can only restore my magic power, but it has no effect of improvement."
In fact, he had faintly touched this state a year ago, but he had never been arrogant or impatient and had purified his magic power.
Now, I am afraid that without the help of any elixirs, just relying on my own spiritual body qualifications, I am almost certain to break through the late stage of elixir formation!
The characteristic of 'Yimu Dharmakaya' is that it is endless. Even if the breakthrough fails, it will not suffer backlash like other knotted pills. The Dantian and meridians will be damaged and need to be nursed back to health for a long time.
Fang Xi can recover in a few months and then carry out the next impact...
After repeating it several times, it can be said that it is almost certain to break through the late stage of pill formation.
After all, even if there is only a 20% to 30% probability, as long as there are enough attempts, you can still succeed!
This is the value of the ‘Yimu Dharmakaya’!
Not to mention, the increase in longevity brought by this Dharma body is enough to give practitioners more opportunities to pass the level!
Fang Xi had the same idea when forming pills before.
"But...it's better to succeed once than once."
"That's why we need to prepare various pills or secret techniques to break through the bottleneck..."
Fang Xi thought for a moment, stood up, and walked out of Xiaohan Cave.
…
Xuanbing Palace.
Main hall.
Feng Bingxian was sitting on the crystal-like throne, looking at the noisy foundation-building elders below with a very helpless expression.
Back then, she invited the guest Qing Taishang to relieve the catastrophe in the Xuanbing Palace. However, many monks were able to work together in the same boat when the Taoist tradition was in decline. Now that the crisis has been resolved, they have begun to secretly fight for power and gain, mixed with many personal grudges, love, hatred...
…and the surrounding affairs of the cultivator families, it’s really a mess.
"The Master of the General Affairs Hall... I am going to hand over the position to Junior Sister Lan."
After some discussion, Feng Bingxian couldn't help but propose a candidate and made the final decision.
"Thank you very much, Palace Master. I will manage the General Affairs Palace well."
This junior sister Lan is extremely beautiful, with a charming charm in every frown and smile. Her appearance is still higher than that of Feng Bingxian. She is the female cultivator in the Taoist couple.
"That's very good... As for the Qi family, just a foundation-building family, they dare to test the Shangzong and just destroy the family..."
Feng Bingxian's beautiful eyes were full of evil, and she could decide the life or death of a foundation-building family with just one word.
The monks present looked very natural. After all, apart from the Bingsha Sect, the Xuanbing Palace was the first-class force nearby!
To put it bluntly, after wiping out a group of foundation-building families, among casual cultivators, there is always a chance for geniuses to obtain foundation-building pills by chance, or even build foundations on their own, to fill the vacant positions. Unless there is a war in the world of cultivators, there is no risk at all.
manpower.
Feng Bingxian has perfected her cultivation base and has been the master of the palace for a long time. She is very majestic and handles the affairs of the sect quickly.
At this time, a stern young man in black robes stood up and said, "Palace Master... I have something important to report to you in the Foreign Affairs Palace!"
This person is Hong Changsheng, the founder of the Foreign Affairs Palace, who has always been responsible for investigating foreign intelligence.
As soon as he spoke, he immediately attracted the attention of all the elders.
"explain!"
Feng Bingxian had a vague premonition and flicked her sleeves.
"...Palace Master, does he still remember the 'Xuanyin Old Demon'?"
Hong Changsheng asked.
"This person is an elder of the Scarlet Blood Sect who was very powerful, but he died inexplicably..." Feng Bingxian replied without any expression.
"Is there something else going on in this matter?"
Junior Sister Lan asked.
"How could the Scarlet Blood Sect be willing to accept the death of a Dan-Jie? They should have been secretly pursuing clues... and the strange thing is that before and after the death of the old demon Xuanyin, several Dan-Jie elders of the Scarlet Blood Sect were also inexplicably sitting there.
Hua… is obviously being targeted.”
Hong Changsheng spoke eloquently: "This secret force has been very covert, but recently it has leaked its clues... The Scarlet Blood Cult has begun to conflict with the Qingye Chamber of Commerce, and has robbed many large caravans of this chamber of commerce..."
"It turned out to be the Qingye Chamber of Commerce?" The other foundation-building elders were shocked, but they thought it was reasonable: "Of course the only one who dares to plot against the Yuanying force is the Yuanying force... Where is the evidence?"
"How can such a thing leave evidence? But the Scarlet Blood Sect has issued a statement that when the old demon Xuanyin died, the old man Tiansha of the Qingye Chamber of Commerce also happened to pass away... This is obviously not a coincidence!"
Hong Changsheng said: "Although the Qingye Chamber of Commerce has given an explanation, another Danjie elder was sneak attacked by the Demon Sect monks and almost died... The two sides are already at war with each other, and the war in the world of immortality has started again. We, Xuanbing Palace, must be prepared.
"
"This matter..."
Feng Bingxian bit her red lips: "I'm afraid I have to report it to the Supreme Elder..."
This was too important a matter and she didn't dare to make the decision without permission.
"No need to report, I'm right here."
A rough voice sounded.
Fang Xi strode in from outside the hall: "I just happened to be out of seclusion. I didn't expect to hear such interesting news..."
When he came to the main seat, Feng Bingxian immediately got out of the way and led everyone to build the foundation and salute: "I have met the Supreme Elder."
"That's all."
Fang Xi sat down calmly, touched her chin, and felt a little funny in her heart: 'This Tianmeng... has done a great job.'
'The Qingye Chamber of Commerce is also unlucky, there must be a spy... I found out that the old man Tiansha was sitting at the transformation node, and then went to attack and kill the old demon Xuanyin...'
'I didn't expect that Jin Dan Yuan Cheng, who we had a close relationship with back then, has passed away... It's hard to hide it for so long.'
Since high-level monks in this world are often the lifeblood of a sect, their level of cultivation, status, and even death are all top secrets and can basically be kept secret for many years.
Fang Xi was not surprised at all that the death of old man Tiansha had been concealed for so many years.
On the contrary, Master Qingyang invited him to take action several times before. At that time, there was an incident with the Scarlet Blood Cult. The time of friction between the two parties was very close, so Fang Xi couldn't help but think more about it.
"I will discuss this matter with the palace master. Please step aside first!"
Fang Xi waved her hand and asked many foundations to retreat.
Feng Bingxian looked at Fang Xi in astonishment, and heard Fang Xi's slightly rough words in her ears:
"Palace Master... I want you to help me practice!"
