After eating and drinking, we took a boat to go south.
Naturally, he didn't forget to return the big pot when he left. There was still whole crab meat in the pot, which was considered as a thank you gift for using the pot. Everyone in Lao Wang's family was trembling with fear.
Xu Mo said: "Eat it while it's hot."
After saying that, he drifted away.
"Master Xu, my skills have improved, and my eyes and ears have become much clearer." Lin Jiuyuan is a seventeen-year-old child after all. Normally, he can be tense and behave coldly, but when he gets to know someone, he will reveal something that belongs to her.
So innocent at this age.
Xu Mo looked at Lin Jiuyuan with a smiling face and said that this is not strange.
"The Jinshui River God is also a Taoist evil spirit. Eating its flesh and blood can increase magic power (resentment, hatred) for practitioners, and it can also increase qi and blood and enhance skills for warriors. It is very beneficial."
Of course, there was something Xu Mo didn't say.
Everything in this world has advantages and disadvantages.
But again, you can’t just not do it just because there are disadvantages. You have to calculate the pros and cons and weigh the pros and cons. If the pros outweigh the cons, there’s no harm in doing it.
Anyway, Lin Jiuyuan was very happy.
"Master Xu, when can you teach me how to practice?"
Lin Jiuyuan asked, with an expectant look on his face.
Xu Mo said, just do it now.
"Those who practice Dharma have different methods, but in the final analysis, the paths lead to the same destination. I think the end point is the same. Jiuyuan, what I tell you is the basis of Dharma practice. The way to cultivate immortality is like climbing a high mountain and looking up at the foot of the mountain.
It’s difficult to see the top of the mountain clearly when the clouds and mist surround it. I don’t know how high the mountain is or where the top is. Let me ask you, what will happen if you rush to climb the mountain in this situation?”
Xu Mo asked.
Lin Jiuyuan thought carefully before replying: "If you don't know the way forward and don't know the conditions of the mountains, you may end up on a dead end, fall off a cliff, or fall into a mountain stream. You will suffer and waste time. Although you work hard, you will achieve nothing in the end."
"Yes, so, most of the immortal cultivators in this world are just messing around. They seem to be clever and powerful, but in fact they are walking a path of no return that they don't even know where to go.
"
After saying this, Xu Mo said: "What I said is more important than the specific techniques and methods. Jiuyuan, you have to think carefully these days. If you have the results, you can discuss them with me. If you have any doubts, you can
ask."
"Yes, Master Xu!" Lin Jiuyuan really began to think about this issue seriously.
Xu Mo stood on the bow of the boat, looking at the river and the water. Later, he borrowed fishing gear from the boatman and began to learn to fish.
For Xu Mo, fishing is not about whether he can catch it, but about the process. The feeling of sitting on the bow of the boat and concentrating is very wonderful.
Think of the river as the mundane world and the fish as living beings. You sit on the bow of the boat, high above, like an immortal in the clouds, escaping from the mundane world, unconstrained and free. But all living beings are in the palm of your hand, and the fishing line is hanging down.
This means seems to be power, but in essence, it is of little significance, but it cannot be eliminated.
At the same time, you will also have insights.
Every time I close the pole and every time I land the hook, I have a different mood.
Lin Jiuyuan ate crab meat and his skill greatly increased, and so did Xu Mo.
This is not considered the secret art of human elixir.
It is more like the kind of immortality that is close to Xu Mo's heart, the kind of creation that seizes the heaven and earth, takes the essence of all things, tempers oneself, and strengthens one's cultivation.
Big crab can also be regarded as one of the 'treasures of heaven and earth'. In Xu Mo's eyes, it is the same as the century-old Ganoderma lucidum and the thousand-year-old snow lotus.
Very effective.
Xu Mo is practicing both martial arts and martial arts this time.
The first is martial arts. Internal strength has achieved great success, reaching the state of perfection and reaching the pinnacle. This is also related to the dozens of iterations of internal strength training in the past.
It is a matter of accumulation and thinning.
The same goes for practicing magic. Xu Mo found that a trace of magic power was produced in his body.
In other words, it is the condensed resentment and hatred of the big crab.
The magic power in this world is these weird things. As long as you practice the law, you can't avoid it. The difference lies in where you get it from.
Because he ate the big crab, Xu Mo also had his own magic power. In this way, plus the magic power borrowed from the wandering god, and the magic power borrowed from the Qinglian Sword Canon, a three-legged power was formed.
Used to cast spells to increase their power.
The same goes for using it to control a sword.
"Then the stars borrow their strength, and the universe borrows their laws, how can we explain this?"
Xu Mo sat on the bow of the boat, looking at the river. Under the night, the surroundings seemed extremely quiet, suitable for thinking.
What Xu Mo recited just now was the "Flag Order Spell" that ordered hundreds of ghosts and small black flags to restrain souls.
He often uses this spell, which was taught by Lao Zhou and is a small skill.
I didn't think so at the time, but now, as Xu Mo's own vision has improved, his understanding of the immortality of this world has also made great strides forward.
"The stars, the universe, where is the magic to borrow? It's not some weird thing hidden in the dark. It seems that this flag order spell should be used as little as possible. Maybe, because with it, some weird thing
Already targeting me."
Xu Mo looked up.
The night sky was deep and nothing could be seen.
But in this night, he always felt that there was something hidden in the sky. Just as he was sitting on the bow of the boat looking at the river at the moment, there might be a person above the sky, sitting cross-legged on the river of stars, overlooking all living beings.
"Don't think about this matter." Xu Mo suddenly felt a palpitation in his heart and quickly looked away. Not only could he not think about it, he could not look at it either.
Because Xu Mo discovered that what he just thought might be true.
There is really a terrible one
Being is sitting upright among the clouds, overlooking the common people.
What a terrifying existence is that?
It took a while for Xu Mo to calm down the palpitations in his heart.
More, I can't think about it, and I don't dare to think about it.
Xu Mo planned to be pragmatic and focus on the present first.
How can he go further, how can he obtain more benefits? This time, he wants to explore more places.
"Let's go to the Xiangshui Lake first. The Big Green Snake Xiangying and I have agreed to meet at the Xiangshui Lake on the 10th. Although there are still several days, there is no harm in arriving early. When Xiangying arrives, we will communicate and wait for spiritual signs.
Taoist."
This is Xu Mo's plan.
As for the great demon Yuan Jun, Xu Mo has no intention of looking for him specifically.
Last time he was able to find the other party, I guess it was the big crab who went to complain. This time he ate all the big crabs, so I guess no one went to complain.
"Consider him lucky, but speaking of it, I don't have much grudge against that big demon Yuan Jun. It wasn't him who fucked me last time."
Xu Mo didn't want to think too much.
He abandoned his distracting thoughts and began to immerse himself in the mysterious and mysterious realm brought about by 'fishing'.
Not to mention, I didn’t know why at first, but suddenly I found out what was inside the portal, and I suddenly became enlightened and immersed in it.
Interestingly, Xu Mo suddenly thought of the "Diamond Sutra", the "Tao Te Ching", and the "Prajna Heart Sutra" in his mind. There were many mysterious and mysterious truths in the scriptures. At this moment, he had new insights and understandings.
One night passed.
Not a single fish was caught.
But his cultivation level has increased a lot.
The boat travels through Jinshui River and then enters the Xianghe River. The same waterway and the same scenery, but the mood is very different.
"The way to control a sword lies in the mind. The true energy is like water, like a flowing stream, and the sword is like a fish. It can swim freely in the water. Wherever the true energy goes, the sword can also go..."
Xu Mo was preaching to Lin Jiuyuan at the moment.
It is not the Nine Heavenly Sword Techniques, nor the Qinglian Sword Code, but Xu Mo's own kendo ideas that he created through the fusion of the sword codes. It is Xu Mo's own creation.
Whether it works or not, I haven't tried it yet, but it's not bad to use Lin Jiuyuan as this guinea pig.
Lin Jiuyuan didn't know that she had become a guinea pig. At this moment, she was still excitedly trying to memorize and study seriously. She was very energetic. In Xu Mo's previous world, it would definitely be 985 and 211 material.
"Master Xu, the sword is like a fish, the true energy is like water, the water can move, the sword can go, I understand, I have enlightened!" Lin Jiuyuan was very excited, like a child who got his favorite toy, and immediately started to draw the sword
Experiment.
As a result, it really worked.
The girl stepped on the oar and made a splash, causing a splash of water. Then she shouted loudly and flew out with the long sword in her hand, traveling along the water, flying five feet away, and even performed a set of sword flowers in the air.
Xu Mo was also stunned when he saw it.
But the next moment, he lost control of his energy and lost control of his sword, falling into the water.
"Ah, my sword!"
Lin Jiuyuan's beauty turned pale.
Xu Mo smiled and reached out to grab it.
The long sword that was about to sink to the bottom of the river immediately swam upwards, broke out of the water in an instant, and hung in front of Xu Mo.
"Master Xu!" Lin Jiuyuan was overjoyed, but she couldn't figure out how Xu Mo could control her sword so easily.
"Master Xu, you said before that in the art of sword control, you need to cultivate the sword and warm it up when you first start. It's like two strangers trying to get along, so you..."
Lin Jiuyuan naturally didn't know that Xu Mo had wielded her sword last time.
Very familiar.
"As a teacher, if you have high skills, you are not limited to these rules."
Xu Mo returned the sword to Lin Jiuyuan.
But before returning it, he put the sword close to him and whispered a few words.
Lin Jiuyuan didn't know what he was talking about. She was naturally curious and asked. Xu Mo replied: I told it that from now on, it will also be called Jiuyuan.
Lin Jiuyuan was puzzled at first, but he quickly came to his senses.
This is the ‘name-giving technique’.
Xu Mo had previously told her about "The Transformation of All Things into Spirits". The first step in turning dead things into spirits and giving birth to auras is to give them names.
Of course, not everyone can do it.
That must be an expert with "magic power" and good conduct.
So she gave her a name, but it was useless; Xu Mo gave her a name, but it was useful.
"Thank you Master Xu!"
Lin Jiuyuan was naturally overjoyed.
Lin Jiuyuan holds the Jiuyuan Sword. Although it sounds awkward, it can improve his strength, so who cares?
The next step is to warm and nourish the spirit. This is a long-term process and needs to be done by Lin Jiuyuan himself.
Two days later, we arrived at the shore of Xiangshui Lake.
Xu Mo's cultivation level has not improved significantly yet, but Lin Jiuyuan's improvement is definitely immediate. At this moment, she is smiling, and there is water vapor around her long sword, like a fish, swimming and flying around.
The boating master has long been used to strange things. When he first saw it, he was really shocked, but no matter how rare the thing is, he will get used to it.
Lin Jiuyuan's strength increased several times in just a few days.
This is an unexpected surprise.
Not to mention herself, even Xu Mo was shocked.
"This girl is so talented!"
Xu Mo thought to himself.
The reason for his high talent may also be related to the 'eyes' parasitized in Lin Jiuyuan's body by Taoist Lingzhao.
Xu Mo thought about it, and this time he teamed up with Xiang Ying to take down Taoist Lingzhao.
When I entered the Lin family again, my mood was completely different.
Xu Mo became more cautious and confident.
Cautiousness has witnessed the fight between the Buddha of Fazen Temple and the Lord of Guihuafang City, and knows the hidden dangers and terrors in this world.
And self-confidence is simply because his own strength has increased.
Killing the Sword Demon twice was Xu Mo's confidence.
