My daughter Xiaoyue still couldn't go to school the next day. According to their procedures, once she had a fever, she would be suspended from school for three days and quarantined at home. Even a certificate from the hospital was useless. After Xu Zhipeng finished his work, he stayed with his daughter for most of the day and did not return until the evening. By the time we returned to Xuanwei, it was already past eight o'clock.
The evening homework had not yet been completed, and by the time he had finished moving for three weeks, it was already ten o'clock in the evening. Normally at this time, he would have already fallen asleep.
People who have never experienced it have no idea how boring it is to be alone on the mountain. Therefore, he, who used to fall asleep at midnight, was now used to going to bed early.
But tonight won't be boring.
He took out the Yue seal given by Lao Ma, held it in his hand and rubbed it. This was the first magic weapon he got, and he couldn't wait to refine it.
He knows the techniques for refining magic weapons. Each sect has some differences, but they all reach the same goal, which is to refine the energy in the magic weapon into one that is consistent with one's own, so that it can be used with ease.
The refining of Taoist seals is fairly simple. Its function is single, which is to clear the sky and the earth and give orders to ghosts and gods. Investigating its essence, it can be classified as Lu Ling Dao.
But Xu Zhipeng was not careless. He carefully placed Yue Zhang on his Dantian, holding it up and down with both hands, while his true energy circulated and invaded the seal.
The vitality in the bronze medal was hazy, not much. Xu Zhipeng condensed them into shapes according to the technique, turning them into lines of true energy, and finally condensed them into three.
This Yue seal must be quite old. It is said that in the past when cultivating, Qi was not calculated by items, but by quantity. Later, the spiritual energy gradually dried up and became increasingly rare. The monks no longer dared to measure it crudely. Talented people stepped forward and created a hierarchical system of true energy with bars as the unit of measurement. In modern times, it is barely surviving. The vitality in this Yuezhang seal exists in the form of mist, so it is easy to judge its age.
There is still a ghost soldier remaining in the seal, with sparse Yin energy and an indistinct form. If he is directly exposed to the Yang world, it will disappear in half a quarter of an hour.
This is also the reason why Ma Lumin's family suffered this disaster. Xu Zhipeng had already expected that there would be ghost soldiers inside the seal, so he had always been careful. I just didn't expect that he would be in such a state of ruin, but he could still hold on to his desires and not devour the lives of mortals.
He was deeply impressed! Putting yourself in his shoes, if it were him, Xu Zhipeng couldn't answer whether he could maintain his mentality in a life-and-death situation. Cultivation is to cultivate the mind, and he taught me a good lesson today.
Xu Zhipeng naturally had a way to save his life. The best way to support ghosts and gods is incense. Although Xuanwei's incense is scarce, it is still enough to support him.
After refining, he lit a stick of incense, turned his thoughts into incense, and fed it to him.
"General Yang Xing, see the seal master!" The Yin Qi on the ghost soldiers was still a little thin, but it was also condensed a lot. After being summoned by him, he flew out of the seal, stood in front of Xu Zhipeng, and bowed respectfully.
"No need to give gifts!" Xu Zhipeng saw his attire, iron armor and silver helmet, and knew that ancient people like them were all about etiquette, so he did not stop his grand gift. He just politely helped him stand up with his hands.
"Yang Xing, right? Where are you from? Which dynasty are you from?"
"Reporting to the seal master, Xing only remembers that he was from Kaifeng Prefecture of the Song Dynasty. Others are vague and have no recollection."
"Well, it's been a thousand years!" Xu Zhipeng said with emotion. "Yang Xing, times have changed. From now on, when you are in my place, you don't have to pay too much attention to these red tapes. Just follow orders." This ghost soldier is principled. When it comes to using this kind of underworld soldier, Xu Zhipeng is more Don't worry, so he doesn't need to set too many rules for him. Of course, if you are restless, that's a different story.
"Yes, Master Seal." Yang Xing cupped his fists and bowed, standing aside respectfully.
It seems that the habits of life can't be changed at once, but these are just trivial things and harmless.
Although the vitality in Yue Zhang Seal has been refined by him into three strands of true energy, it has only been transformed and incorporated into some of his aura, but it still cannot be said to have been completely refined by him. This is a water-milling process, which may take ten days, or a month or two. When the refining is completed, he can absorb the vitality into his Dantian and transform it into his true energy. By that time, he will be able to possess the Eight Paths of True Qi. The fourth level of Qi refining, the middle stage of the Qi refining period.
At that time, he can use some Taoist magic. Thinking of this, he was filled with passion. No wonder cultivators like magic weapons. Not to mention their functions and power, their strength can also be greatly enhanced.
The Yuezhang Seal is just an ordinary talisman-type magic weapon, and it is not very powerful. If it can encounter those powerful magic weapons, or even spiritual treasures, then I don't know how much progress it can make.
It's a pity that it's just out of reach!
In the Age of Ending Dharma, spiritual energy is exhausted, but these magic weapons and spiritual treasures also need the nourishment of spiritual energy, otherwise, all that awaits them is their demise. The reason why this Yuezhang seal has been preserved to this day is probably due to Yin Chenmu. Isolating the breath inside and outside naturally slows down the consumption of vitality. Xu Zhipeng secretly guessed, but it was almost the same.
From then on, whenever Xu Zhipeng practiced, he would place the Yue Zhang Seal in his Dantian. While practicing, he would also refine the vitality in the seal.
Time flies, and more than a month has passed in the blink of an eye. For more than a month, he practiced with peace of mind and worked hard to refine the vitality in the seal. Finally, with unremitting efforts, the three vitalities were completely refined by him and could be collected into his Dantian at will and became his true energy. However, he couldn't drain the water and suck all the energy into his dantian, but left a stream of energy in the seal. If he needs to use a seal, he can also input his own energy into the seal to enhance the power of the seal.
He would also take some time to go down the mountain to meet his daughter on weekends, do homework with her and go shopping with her. My daughter is only in the first year of junior high school, and her studies are not heavy. She has enough time to go out on weekends. Xu Zhipeng also kept a relaxed attitude and combined work and rest. He didn't have much ambition at first. Now he has entered the middle stage of Qi training and knows that if there is no opportunity, there will not be much progress. It’s just a matter of time and effort!
Spring Festival is coming soon!
I don't know what happened recently. There haven't been many tourists on Zhuge Xian Mountain, but the number of tourists coming to Xuanwei has increased a lot, and the incense is becoming more and more prosperous.
This can be considered a good thing!
Ghost soldier Yang Xing's incense and spiritual food were sufficiently guaranteed, Xu Zhipeng also relaxed some restrictions, and his strength was greatly improved. Now, his yin energy is so heavy that he is almost condensing into a physical form.
These are not stated. Xu Zhipeng himself, since he has entered the fourth level of Qi refining, can already practice the Five Elements technique. The first thing he chose to practice was Qi Control among the Five Elements. Among them was a spell called Wind Control, which allowed him to slide on the wind.
This is a spell that he has been thinking about for a long time!
The method of controlling Qi is actually not very advanced, so you can master it once you learn it. Controlling the wind is just one of them. There are also the offensive wind blade technique, the cleansing breeze technique, and when you practice to a high level, you can also cast flying sand and rocks, phoenix tornado and other advanced spells.
In terms of talismans, he has also mastered the art of drawing fire-control talismans and golden light talismans. One is for attack and the other is for defense, which can just make up for his weakness in both offense and defense.
The Taoist temple now often has a few regular customers. One is Lin Xuxu and the other is Li Jiaqi. They often come to the Taoist temple to report once every one or two weeks. Sometimes they bring one or two close friends with them to stay at the Taoist temple for a whole day. Xu Zhipeng didn't object either.
They have even tidied up the guest room to make it easier for them to rest and stay. However, Xu Zhipeng did not have the habit of staying overnight and would drive them down the mountain before dark. After all, the Taoist temple is a place of pure cultivation. Although the Taoist priests are not allowed to have sex with men and women, and even their mysterious Taoism includes the method of yin and yang cultivation, he is still not used to having female guests stay overnight.
Xuan Wei's reputation is now gradually growing. Xu Zhipeng is happy but also has a headache.
Just yesterday, his senior brother, monk Zhichen, came to visit with a little girl from the subdistrict office, saying that the subdistrict was going to vigorously develop the tourism industry in Zhuge Xianshan. In the past, Xuanwei had been cultivating behind closed doors and was not known to outsiders, so the streets did not come to trouble them. But now that the reputation of the Taoist temple has been established, it has also come into the eyes of the street office.
With the redevelopment of Zhuge Xianshan, the staff from the sub-district office came to discuss the development of his Xuanwei.
