The spiritual consciousness circled Lin Xuan's body and then took it back. There was no hostility at all, but Lin Xuan felt that his forehead was covered with crystal drops of sweat.
I was shocked. Speaking of it, I can be considered a high-level cultivator now, but compared with the old monsters in the Nascent Soul stage, there is still an unreachable gap. Just the consciousness is like this. If I take action, what will happen?
Earth-shattering...
After turning all the thoughts in his mind, Lin Xuan naturally did not dare to continue sitting arrogantly when he saw his master standing up. He also stood with his hands tied, with a hint of respect on his face.
An old man in a green robe walked into the cave. Judging from his appearance, there was nothing special about him. The only thing that impressed people was that he had only one eye and was tall, two meters tall.
"Uncle Master!"
"No need to be formal, sit down!"
The old man seemed very approachable, and then his eyes turned around Lin Xuan's face: "Are you the new disciple of Junior Nephew Tong Yu?"
"Junior Lin Xuan, pay homage to our master."
"Well, that's right!" The old man nodded: "I have heard from my nephew Tong Yu about you. At just over forty years old, you have entered the stage of condensation. You are indeed a talented and beautiful person.
When I was young, I was far behind."
"The master is ridiculous, the disciple is just a fluke." Lin Xuan was startled, and quickly and carefully replied, although the possibility is very small, he is also afraid that the secret of the Blue Star Sea will be exposed, keep a low profile, keep a low profile.
"Okay, you don't have to be so restrained. Although I have advanced to the Nascent Soul stage, I am not a man-eating monster." The one-eyed old man stroked his beard and smiled, and there was a hint of humor in his words: "
Since you are the young master of our sect, you should know my name. My surname is Xu, my double name is Jinqing, um, nephew of Tong Yu, you can tell Lin Xuan about me."
"Yes, Uncle Master." Master Tong Yu saluted, then turned his head and began to narrate like Lin Xuan...
This Elder Xu is seven hundred years old this year. He is the second master in the Spiritual Medicine Mountain to advance to the Nascent Soul stage after Tianchen Zhenren. Although he is slightly inferior to the ancestor, he is also amazingly talented.
character.
Lin Xuan naturally listened with respect on his face, and he felt relieved. With the powerful strength of the Spiritual Medicine Mountain, Youzhou would not be affected by the war between good and evil. At least, self-protection would be no problem.
.
"Okay. Lin Xuan, now you know a little bit about me. I think Junior Nephew Tong Yu also talked to you just now. Do you know why he accepted you as his disciple and made you the young master of the Spiritual Medicine Mountain?
"Xu Jinqing suddenly spoke calmly.
"Disciple, I don't know. Master has not answered this question like this junior."
"Oh?" Xu Jinqing had a look of surprise on his face, then coughed lightly and said, "Okay, let me tell you."
"Junior, I am all ears." Lin Xuan bent down slightly.
"Lin Xuan. Do you know what is most important for a cultivator who wants to go further on the immortal path?"
"This..." Lin Xuan was startled. Xu Jinqing clearly said that he wanted to answer his question, but why he suddenly changed the topic again. Although he was slightly dissatisfied, he also knew that as an old monster in the Nascent Soul Stage, the other party would definitely be fine.
Chatting with myself. What I said must mean something, so I thought about it carefully.
There are many factors that affect the realm of cultivation, but strictly speaking, there are three factors: focus, qualifications, hard work, and elixirs...
Needless to say, he has excellent qualifications and excellent spiritual roots. When he practices, he will get twice the result with half the effort. He will make great progress with each passing day. This is why there is a difference between geniuses and ordinary people in the world.
Pills are essential for every cultivator. As for its effectiveness, just look at Lin Xuan's situation.
As for hard work, it is impossible to rely solely on hard work and sweat, but it is indispensable. Otherwise, no matter you are a genius, you still have enough elixirs. If you do not practice Qi and meditate, your hard work will only be mediocre in the end. A common man.
"Qualification and hard work are the most important." Lin Xuan thought for a while and answered. Pills are theoretical after all. Looking at the world of cultivation, except for himself who has such a heaven-defying thing as the Blue Star Sea, others, even Tian Xiaojian, Due to his status, it is absolutely impossible to treat the elixir as a sugar pill.
"Yes, but do you know which qualification is the best?" Xu Jinqing stroked his beard and smiled.
Lin Xuan raised his brows and felt a little bored. This old monster at the Nascent Soul stage had too many questions, but on the surface, he still said respectfully: "It's the Holy Spirit Root."
The so-called Holy Spirit Root is a term used in the world of cultivating immortals. This kind of Spiritual Root is considered to be the most outstanding one known. Not only does its cultivation speed far exceed that of cultivators with other Spiritual Roots, but it also encounters bottlenecks when it comes to thinking. The difficulties to break through are also much smaller.
Throughout the ages, nine out of ten old monsters who can advance to the Nascent Soul stage are the owners of the Holy Spirit Root!
Of course, this does not mean that having the Holy Spirit root can successfully condense the Nascent Soul, but at least, as long as the person is not too lazy and has a certain chance, there will be no problem in condensing the elixir.
However, this time, Xu Jinqing shook his head: "Wrong, the best qualification is not the Holy Spirit root."
"What, it's not the Holy Spirit root?" Lin Xuan was startled. This was completely different from the information he had known before.
"Yes, it should be the bitter spirit root." Master Tong Yu also spoke at the side.
"Bitter Spirit Root?" Lin Xuan couldn't help but frown, he had never heard of it at all.
"The so-called Bitter Spirit Root, as the name suggests, on the surface, the person who possesses it is like an ordinary mortal, and the speed of cultivation is pitifully slow. However, if this person has a firm mind, he can eat a hundred times what ordinary people cannot eat. Bitterness will activate the Bitter Spirit Root, so his cultivation speed is even far faster than the Holy Spirit Root." Xu Jinqing explained calmly.
After hearing this, Lin Xuan had a faint thought in his heart, could it be...
"Yes, the reason why my teacher accepted you as my disciple is because you are also the owner of the bitter spirit root." Master Tong Yu also spoke: "When my teacher first met you, you were only more than 20 years old, but you were already Foundation building was successful. I secretly used secret methods to observe the situation inside your body, but found that you have no spiritual roots at all. How is this possible..."
"So you guess..."
"Well, if you can successfully build a foundation in your twenties, apart from the Holy Spirit Root, you only have the Bitter Spirit Root. There is nothing difficult to judge." Master Tong Yu took a sip of tea.
Lin Xuan was chewing this passage secretly in his heart. From a logical point of view, there is nothing surprising. Since the Bitter Spirit Root is better than the Holy Spirit Root, then after discovering such a genius, he will naturally try his best to take him under his sect, but Even so, there is no need to establish yourself as the young master!
At the same time, Lin Xuan kept smiling bitterly in his heart. Even if his master is cunning and cunning, how could he know that he has no bitter spirit root at all? He is truly a mortal. The reason why he can achieve his current level of cultivation is all because of the blue star sea.
.
Seeming to see the doubts in Lin Xuan's heart, Master Tong Yu smiled and said: "Xuan'er, I have my own reasons for doing this for my master. Do you know that the founder of our Spiritual Medicine Mountain, Master Tianchen, also has a bitter spirit root?"
owner."
"Oh?" Lin Xuan looked moved, but still didn't express anything.
"Although the Holy Spirit Root is rare, there will always be one every hundred years. Geniuses with Bitter Spirit Roots are often hard to see even if they wait for thousands of years. However, once such a person is born, he can always become a generation of outstanding people and do great things.
He will cause earth-shattering events, and his sect will usually benefit a lot from it." Xu Jinqing said with a smile on his face.
"That's it." Lin Xuan nodded. This reason barely made sense. He cupped his fists and said, "Master, don't worry, I will definitely live up to the hopes of you and my master."
"Yes." Both of them had a look of satisfaction on their faces.
Xu Jinqing pondered for a moment: "Xuan'er, do you have the ability to refine your own magic weapon now?"
"Returning to the master, my disciple has not condensed the pill for a long time, not yet." Lin Xuan said honestly, and at the same time, a ray of hope rose in his heart.
"Well, jade cannot be used until it is cut. This natal magic weapon is the most important thing for us high-level monks. You need to think about it yourself. Your master and I can't help you, but I have wasted hundreds of years, so it's okay
By chance, I collected some ancient treasures and gave them to you for self-defense!"
"Thank you, Master!" Lin Xuan was overjoyed and bowed deeply. The things given by the old monster at the Nascent Soul stage could not be any worse. As for the fact that he already had an ancient treasure for self-defense, of course he didn't mention it at all.
.
Xu Jinqing reached into his arms, took out a jade box, and then opened it gently.
Lin Xuan took a closer look and saw that it was a green and crystal embroidery needle. However, unlike ordinary treasures, there was no obvious spiritual energy fluctuation on it.
Lin Xuan couldn't help but be stunned, and then showed a thoughtful expression.
"This treasure is called the Green Scale Needle. It is made from Xuantian Cold Jade. Not only is it extremely hard, it is naturally equipped with ice-type attacks, but it also contains a strange poison. Once the poison enters the body, it will be in the elixir-condensing stage.
The monks also have no way to save themselves. It is a treasure that I acquired in my early years. Of course I can’t use it now, but given your level, it should be just right.” Xu Jinqing held the green scale needle in his hand and slowly narrated it.
"Thank you, Master!" Lin Xuan's face showed excitement without hesitation. Flying needle magic weapons are rare in the world of cultivation, but each one usually has great magical powers. The poison contained in this green scale needle
, which should be a major feature.
Although generally speaking, monks are not very afraid of ordinary poisons after undergoing the I Ching cleansing process, but the world is so big that there are all kinds of strange poisons, and there are also a few strange poisons that even high-level monks would talk about. Xuantian
Cold jade is one of them. This object exists in ten thousand years of glaciers and is born with the poison of extreme yin and extreme cold.
He happily pocketed it.
Master Tong Yu also had a smile on his face: "Xuan'er, my teacher has always been in name only. When you achieved the golden elixir, I didn't send you a congratulatory gift. Now I'll make up for it." He also put his hand into his arms.
