Chapter 1196 Harvest from the trip to the forbidden area
"That's it."
Liang Yan suddenly felt enlightened after hearing this. He had been a little surprised before as to why innate Tao fruits could actually be produced in this small forbidden area. It turned out that everything here was left by the angry monk.
"Have you only completed the first five phases of "Eight Parts of Yanyuan"?" Jingyuan asked again.
"good."
Facing this angry monk's old friend, Liang Yan did not hide anything, nodded and said: "I have fully understood the first five phases. As the level of cultivation increases, the power will become stronger and stronger, but only the last three...
Xiang, no matter how much I study it, I still can’t figure it out.”
"Normally, Senior Angry Monk's "Eight Parts of Evolution" is a sage's method. The diamond can eliminate demons and has infinite power. If you want to understand the next three phases, in addition to talent and bones, you also need a certain amount of opportunity."
Liang Yan's heart moved and he said: "Opportunity? Could it be what the senior said."
"It's the 'Holy Buddha Cloud Fruit'!"
Jingyuan said calmly: "The "Eight Parts of Yanyuan" was created by the Angry Monk. He has the appearance of a saint and can figure out the supreme way, especially the last three phases, which contain the true meaning of Buddhism. Unless you also achieve the status of a saint
, otherwise we can only rely on the 'Holy Buddha Cloud Fruit' to understand the last three phases of this magical skill."
"No wonder Lian Xin came all the way here to take away the 'Holy Buddha Cloud Fruit'. It seems that he has also reached a bottleneck period and needs to use external objects to improve himself."
Liang Yan sighed in his heart, feeling a little regretful about missing out on the Innate Dao Fruit this time.
The two were silent for a while, and then Jingyuan slowly said: "According to the few words Lian Xin talked with me, he should have gone to the north, but where exactly he went, the poor monk doesn't know."
"Thank you, senior, for informing me."
Liang Yan cupped his hands and asked again: "This junior started too late and is a little curious about this senior brother, but I don't know what mistakes he made back then that made Master care so much?"
Jingyuan thought for a while, shook his head and said: "This poor monk doesn't know very well. I only know that Lian Xin is a person who does whatever it takes to achieve his goals. Maybe some of his actions have touched the bottom line of Senior Angry Monk? In short,
When you meet Lian Xin, you need to be very careful and don't be merciful just because he is your senior brother, otherwise the end will be miserable."
"Thank you, senior, for your advice."
Liang Yan nodded, glanced at the haggard old monk again, and couldn't help but frown.
"Senior, forgive me. Liang didn't know that the 'Nine Heavens Golden Thunder Fruit' was left by Master to help you get rid of your inner demons. Now that this innate Taoist fruit has been stolen, Liang is also responsible. I don't know if there is any compensation."
Law?"
"That's all."
Jingyuan shook his head and smiled: "No matter how good the 'Nine Heavens Golden Thunder Fruit' is, it is just a foreign object after all. It can save a poor monk for a while, but it cannot save him forever. If you want to survive this fateful disaster, you must face your inner demons."
When he said this, he sighed softly: "The world says: 'Put down the butcher's knife and become a Buddha immediately'. This is the greatest absurdity in the world! If a person has done all evil and puts down the butcher's knife when he dies, then he will
Can you become a Buddha immediately? A poor monk sits here and meditates, endures the troubles of inner demons, suffers day and night, and has no end in sight. This is the retribution of a poor monk, and he cannot blame others."
After hearing what Jing Yuan said, Liang Yan couldn't help but nodded secretly. This man had a very deep wisdom. I'm afraid the master also saw the Buddha nature in him, so he didn't kill him.
If he can escape from this calamity, he will be a virtuous monk who will bring blessings in the future and have good intentions. If he cannot survive this calamity, it will prove that the evil thoughts in his heart have not been eliminated, and he must atone for his previous sins.
"Hahaha!" Jingyuan smiled heartily at this time and said, "No need to worry, little friend. Have you seen these Buddha statues on my waist? As long as I can carve a Buddha statue that is completely free of evil spirits, it proves that I can face myself.
The inner demon is gone."
"Then I wish you success, senior."
Liang Yan came back to his senses, bowed his hand to Jingyuan and said, "Thank you, senior, for telling me about senior brother today. Liang has important matters, so I won't disturb senior's practice here. I'll see you another day."
"Okay, disciples of the Angry Monk, see you soon."
Jing Yuan also put his hands together and bowed to Liang Yan.
After bidding farewell to Jingyuan, Liang Yan did not stay at Luofeng Temple, but fled southward, finally returning to Guangling City.
After he returned to the city, he did not return directly to the Wenxiang Chamber of Commerce. Instead, he found a sparsely populated inn in the city. After handing over some spirit stones, he got a guest room equipped with a spirit gathering circle and defensive restrictions.
Guest rooms like this are usually provided as temporary accommodation for low-level monks, but Liang Yan didn't mind it either. After arranging a layer of forbidden magic circles around the room, he sat cross-legged in the room.
Liang Yan gained a lot from this trip to the Jiuyun Mountain forbidden area, so the first thing he did after coming out was to count the spoils of the trip.
The first was Song Huaiyu's storage ring. Liang Yan found a copy of "The True Art of Ice Condensation" from it. He flipped through it and found that although this method was quite mysterious, it was incompatible with the swordsmanship he was currently practicing and could only be regarded as a
The trading items were temporarily put away.
There are also two magic weapons, namely a cold jade bracelet and a set of ice needles. Although these two sets of magic weapons have the power to resolve catastrophes, they are very ordinary in Liang Yan's eyes. Even Song Huaiyu himself did not take them.
When he came out to use it, he obviously felt that it was of little use against an enemy like Liang Yan and that it was not as useful as his own magical power.
"Keep it for now. Maybe you can find Wu Xin or that stupid bear in the future and it will come in handy."
Liang Yan thought to himself, put Song Huaiyu's magic weapons and secret books into his storage ring, and then counted her spiritual stones, and found that there were as many as ten million.
"As expected of the elder of the Luowang Chamber of Commerce, he is indeed rich!"
Liang Yan smiled slightly, pocketed these spiritual stones, and opened Ying Laosi's storage ring.
This product is relatively shabby, with only a few hundred thousand spiritual stones in the storage ring.
But think about it, this person was seriously injured, exiled, and was chased all the way. He finally reached Guangling City, and had to buy various medicinal materials and manage relationships.
No matter how strong his previous net worth was, it could not withstand such a huge expense, and it was natural for him to be drained of it.
In Ying Laosi's storage ring, not only were there no spiritual stones, but there were almost no valuable magic weapons or elixirs. The only puppet he could use was destroyed in the battle in the forbidden area and is now just a pile of scrap copper.
Rotten iron.
Liang Yan searched for a while and finally took out a dusty black leather ancient book from a corner.
He blew away the dust and revealed several small seals on the cover, which read: "Sword Art of Immortality"!
"Huh?"
The moment he saw these small seal characters clearly, Liang Yan remembered what he had overheard in the Taoist temple.
That night, Gou Qi and Ying Si had a dispute, and one of them mentioned a book of sword tactics. Although Ying Si promised to pass it on to Gou Qi, he only passed on the first half to him, and had to wait until he was safe to hand over the remaining half.
come out.
Now it seems that the sword art they are talking about is probably this "Sword Art of Immortality".
Liang Yan's heart moved, and he opened the cover of the ancient book and found that it indeed recorded a secret method of sword cultivation.
It's just that this secret method is very obscure, and the preface does not match the following. Judging from Liang Yan's current swordsmanship, I just feel that it is full of loopholes, and it is really not a profound sword manual.
"How could Gou Qi be tempted by such a sword manual?"
Liang Yan had a look of confusion on his face. You must know that Gou Qi is also a master of swordsmanship who has cultivated Jianwan. His vision and knowledge are not inferior to his own. Why would he pay so much attention to such a rough sword art?
"Is there something else going on here?"
Liang Yan's heart moved, and he read down the sword manual again, hoping to find out the reason in the subsequent exercises.
However, he had only turned a few pages when the sword manual came to an abrupt end. The following pages were all blank, with no formula at all.
"this"
Liang Yan was stunned for a moment, but he immediately reacted. He couldn't help but shook his head and smiled to himself:
"Gou Qi, Gou Qi! You pretend to be smart, but you don't realize that you have been deceived by the people around you. He doesn't have the second half of the sword technique at all!"
The situation in front of us is obvious. Ying Si only has the first half of the sword art, but he deliberately leaked it to Gou Qi to let him protect his own safety. In fact, no matter whether the trip is successful or not, Gou Qi will not get the sword art he wants.
Thinking of this, Liang Yan took out the "Sword of Immortality" separately and put it into his storage ring.
Although he couldn't figure out what the secrets of this sword manual were, Liang Yan did not ignore it. After all, something that Gou Qi valued so much should still have some value.
After searching the two people's storage rings, Liang Yan probed his consciousness into the Taixu Gourd.
In this vast space, there are three treasures floating in the air, namely a black lotus heart, a golden tree, and a gloomy black fire.
Liang Yan pondered for a moment, then the incarnation of his spiritual mind raised his hand and took the black lotus heart over first.
This object was obtained from the corpse of Gou Qi. The reason why he and Gou Qi can sense each other is because of the connection between the Black Lotus Sword and this object.
The moment Black Lotus Heart took hold, the Black Lotus Sword had already flown over from Taixu Gourd's sword-raising valley.
This flying sword that had been with Liang Yan for many years was now cheering like a child, flying up and down in front of him, looking very excited.
Liang Yan had a heart-to-heart connection with this natal flying sword, so he could naturally feel its desire. At this moment, he gently stroked the sword and said with a slight smile, "Do you want this lotus heart?"
The tip of the Black Lotus Sword trembled slightly, and a ray of light flowed up and down, as if it was nodding.
Liang Yan pondered for a while, then suddenly waved his sleeves and shouted:
"for you!"
Before he finished speaking, the lotus heart was thrown by him. The black lotus sword was so excited that it immediately turned into a black light and pounced upward, sucking the black lotus heart into the sword light.
The flying sword and the lotus heart merged with each other, and a lotus pattern began to appear on the originally dark black sword body, which looked strange and alluring.
"It's...devouring this lotus heart"
Liang Yan narrowed his eyes slightly and felt an essence, surging, and the same source of power as the flying sword, gradually pouring into the body of the Black Lotus Sword, constantly transforming and improving the flying sword.
A feeling of satisfaction and excitement was transmitted to Liang Yan's heart through Feijian, as if long-lost relatives were finally reunited.
Suddenly, a black halo spread, and the Black Lotus Sword cut through the sky, hitting the location of the Sword Raising Valley like a meteor.
The Sword-Raising Valley is a valley opened by Liang Yan in the small world of Taixu Gourd. It is also the habitat of the four flying swords.
Seeing the Black Lotus Sword return to the valley uncontrollably, Liang Yan couldn't help but change his face slightly, and hurriedly controlled the incarnation of his spiritual mind to rush over.
I saw four flying swords stuck in the majestic valley, namely Mayfly, Zi Lei, Ding Guang, and Black Lotus.
When the other three flying swords saw the incarnation of his spiritual mind, they all trembled slightly, as if they were saying hello softly. Only the Black Lotus Sword was lifeless and stuck motionless on the mountain wall.
"Is it going to retreat?"
This idea suddenly came to Liang Yan's mind. Although it was a bit funny, judging from the current situation, it was really close to the same thing.
He carefully inspected the Black Lotus Sword again and found that there was a special surge of power in the sword body, which seemed to be constantly strengthening the flying sword. Other than that, there was nothing special about it, so he slowly felt relieved.
Come.
"It seems that this time Devouring Lotus Heart, the Black Lotus Sword will sleep for a long time, and I won't be able to use it for a while."
It is a good thing that the Black Lotus Sword can be improved, Liang Yan thought to himself, and gradually withdrew his gaze, focusing on the remaining two treasures.
Before he could make a move, a voice sounded next to him:
"My little friend, you have good luck this time. Although you didn't get the 'Nine Heavens Divine Thunder Fruit', since this tree can bear the innate Dao Fruit, it must be a rare treasure."
Liang Yan knew without looking back that the person speaking was the old tree spirit living in Taixu Gourd.
After hearing what the other party said, he suddenly felt a little funny. He turned his head and glanced at the old tree spirit, with a strange look on his face.
"Haha, I know what my little friend is thinking."
The old tree spirit seemed to have seen what he was thinking, and said calmly: "I am different from it. Although they are both innate Dao fruits, there is still a big difference between the 'Nine Heavens God Thunder Fruit' and the 'Taixu Tianluo Fruit'
There are many, and as a tree demon, I have already developed spiritual consciousness, unlike this Nine Heavens God Thunder Tree, which is so ignorant that it has not yet given birth to its own spiritual consciousness."
"That's not bad."
Liang Yan nodded and did not refute, but asked: "Ji Hang wanted to take this sacred tree away at that time, but you took the initiative to keep it. This tree must be of great use to you, right?"
"Indeed, this sacred tree is very important to me. I kindly ask you to give it to me. In exchange, I will take out all the remaining power of the Thunder and Lightning Law from this sacred tree and help you pour into it the Purple Thunder Heavenly Sound.
In the sword." The old tree spirit said slowly.
"Is this true?"
Liang Yan looked indifferent at first, but when he heard this, he couldn't help but look happy.
"I never lied. Although the 'Nine Heavens Golden Thunder Fruit' was snatched away by Ji Hang, the power of the thunder and lightning law left in the sacred tree is not inferior to the innate Dao Fruit. It's just that after taking out these thunder powers, the god
The tree will die completely.”
When Lao Jin said this, he paused slightly, looked at Liang Yan, and then said:
"In short, the law of thunder and lightning belongs to you, and the remains of the sacred tree belong to me. How about this deal?"
