At this time, Zhu Xianning's voice pulled Qingyun's thoughts back from the distant past life.
"Qingyun, have you been to the endless void and stayed in it for a long time?"
Hearing this, Qingyun no longer concealed anything and said yes in the affirmative.
"Haha, to be able to survive in the endless void filled with spatial turbulence, you are really a proud man with great luck!"
Zhu Xianning said with emotion that these words seemed familiar to the young master. It seemed that Alian always said this to him.
"Hehe...hehe...luck, indeed luck."
"There is a saying that goes well, luck is also a kind of strength. The power of the stars contains the law of 'empty'. The monks of the third level basically need to understand the power of the law, so the power of the stars in you is currently It seems useless, but in the eyes of some powerful people in the spirit-returning realm, it is nothing less than a rare treasure that is hard to find."
This time Qingyun nodded quite pertinently.
Because last time when Pan Yueren realized that he contained the power of stars, his expression was one of envy.
"But, once you choose to burn your body to get rid of the shackles, it means that you are about to officially face the catastrophe of ascension. Therefore, even if many seniors in the spirit realm have the opportunity to set foot in the void and understand the laws of the void, they will be extremely restrained, and some are even afraid of it. I can't avoid it, and you can guess the reason without me telling you."
Qingyun was speechless.
In today's world, there is no hope of ascension. The realm of spiritual return is the end point for most monks. It is easy to misunderstand the laws of the void casually.
"Then Master Zhu, what burden does the power of the stars in Qingyun's body have on him?"
Long Fushi's words warmed my heart.
"Don't worry, write a poem. You don't have to worry at all, because even the monks who have returned to the spiritual realm can only perceive but cannot use the power of this law, let alone Qingyun. After slowly digesting and absorbing it, in addition to strengthening the muscles and bones, he I can’t use it even if I want to!”
Zhu Xianning smiled.
"Who said that, my Luo Yun Sword is not enough?"
Qingyun cursed in his heart.
But what he doesn't know is that the power of the stars, which is the law of emptiness, cannot be used by himself, but it will also change his body bit by bit.
The so-called "strengthening the muscles and bones" is by no means as simple as it seems. Over time, his body will become more in tune with the void.
At the most, it can provide him with an unexpected way to survive when facing the Nine Heavens Thunder Tribulation. At the most, it can at least slowly comprehend the power of space.
If he were to encounter the Pan family's special skill "Sapphire Shadow Movement" again, not only would he be able to break free from the restraint and escape easily, he would at least be able to detect it in advance and respond instead of just waiting to die.
To be honest, although Qingyun and Zhu Xianning met often, for some reason, Master Zhu was always very polite and respectful to him. This made the young master always feel an unspeakable sense of alienation when getting along with him.
He felt that it was not because of his indifference and caution, but rather as if Zhu Xianning was treating him like an uncle.
According to his speculation, it was probably because Mr. Fei liked him more that he was so pleased with him.
But even if it pleases you, it doesn’t have to be like this…
"Flattery."
Long Fushi once used an idiom that Qingyun found difficult to pronounce after reciting it seven or eight times, and ruthlessly commented on his hard-working substitute teacher.
Of course, this did not affect the two of them from seeking advice and learning from the hard-working Master Zhu.
"What's wrong, Qingyun, why are you looking at me so strangely?"
The alchemist deals with the spiritual energy of heaven and earth all day long, and his five senses and spiritual consciousness are far superior to ordinary people. When he noticed that Qingyun's eyes were a bit incomprehensible, Zhu Xianning asked with a hint of confusion.
"Ah...ha...haha...it's nothing about Master Zhu. I just think that you are really different from the kind of 'immortal style' alchemist I imagined."
The young man smiled awkwardly. Rather than "immortal spirit", he would rather use "withered and rugged" to describe the high-level alchemist in his heart, just like Fei Danqing, who had a bad old man look.
"Oh? Xianfeng Daogu?"
Zhu Xianning rubbed his goatee again habitually, and the expression on his face became more confused.
"Well, it has been some years since the student entered the sect, including what he saw and heard when he was abroad in the past. To use an inappropriate analogy, the alchemist is immersed in alchemy and neglects his practice. His strength should be weaker than that of monks of the same realm. But you can beat me. From the first day I met you, you made me feel very powerful.”
What Qingyun said was really not complimentary at all.
Putting aside his outstanding academic achievements, although Zhu Xianning was inferior to Hongchen Ke in front of the Jiangyundong student dormitory, you must know that he was facing the "invincible" Hongchen Ke.
Moreover, Hongchen Guest also has an incredible number of top-grade spiritual swords hidden in his body!
If used with all his strength, the life-saving means left by the master of the Juexian Sect to his daughter will probably be no weaker than the Demonic Creation Order on Yao Mengxun, and it will be easy to kill an ordinary powerful person in the Spirit Realm!
Later, Zhu Xianning's performance was remarkable, both in terms of his knowledge and vision, as well as his ease and calmness when facing the two masters of the spirit realm, Pan Yuezhi and Pan Yueren, and the young master was not harmed in the slightest under his protection. .
Unexpectedly, this "praise" made Master Zhu's face suddenly turn red. His hands shook and he almost had two strands of his beard pulled off. He even made a little embarrassed twitching, which made Qingyun look at him. Goosebumps fell all over the place.
"Ha...uh...Qingyun...you are so amazing...so amazing..."
As if realizing that he was a little out of sorts, Zhu Xianning coughed lightly. The blush on Zhu Xianning's face quickly faded away, as if he had used some secret method to collect Qi and blood, and then said seriously:
"Qingyun, I have said this to Fu Shi before. The art of outer alchemy, that is, the way of alchemy, was passed down from eternity ago. It is an indispensable method for human beings to become immortals if they do not practice inner alchemy. However, ...Or as you said, refining elixirs without refining the body is just a heresy that delays cultivation, resulting in limited realm and loss of life."
Having said this, Zhu Xianning paused intentionally, but these words shocked the young master, and he quickly shook his head and clarified:
"Master Zhu, that's not what I meant, I just..."
He really couldn't believe that Zhu Xianning, a master of the Jade Pot Pills, would compare his lifelong practice to heresy.
Waving his hand, Zhu Xianning immediately turned his gaze to Long Fushi, who was silent but calm, and spoke again:
"Human energy is limited, and there are only twelve hours in a day. Being obsessed with alchemy has already delayed your practice. If you will..."
"Thank you Master Zhu for your teaching. I know it well when writing poems."
After taking a sip of spiritual tea, Long Fushi interrupted.
"Composing a poem..."
Qingyun frowned slightly.
Zhu Xianning kindly reminded him, but Long Fu Shi's attitude was obviously not only perfunctory, but even a little disrespectful, which made him very surprised. Xindao Fu Shi didn't seem to have his own way before?
However, Qingyun's voice seemed to be very useful. He noticed that Long Fushi paused for a moment when he put down the tea cup, and finally said apologetically:
"Master Zhu, forgive me for writing poems. I am just a daughter of a noble family who grew up in a small town. She is like a frog at the bottom of a well. She has never seen the blossoming Kyushu. From now on, I will definitely devote myself to alchemy and live up to Master Zhu's high expectations."
After saying this, Long Fushi raised his teacup and offered a toast to Zhu Xianning.
"Haha, don't blame me for writing poems. My family master and master have praised your talent more than once. I am also afraid that this pearl will be left in the ocean and make the sect regretful."
Zhu Xianning didn't take it seriously at all. He had the same tolerance for this gentle and intellectual delicate girl as Qingyun.
However, Qingyun knew very well that Long Fushi had unparalleled curiosity and thirst for knowledge about all the mysteries of the world. Regardless of whether she had used the puzzle just now, I knew she was telling lies.
Just talking about the twelve hours in a day, Qingyun's heart moved slightly, because he could no longer remember how many times he reminded Long Fushi to ask her to rest at least once every few days.
Although in the Yuan Hua realm, where cultivation has reached its peak and Yuan Shen is about to become complete, monks no longer need primitive sleep, long-term high stress will have more or less effects on both the body, mind and spirit.
But Long Fushi's energy was much stronger than that of Qingyun, who had Qilin bloodline.
Even though she no longer worked hard to earn credits for refining the evil elixir, she seemed to have really become fascinated by the elixir that was originally not worth a try.
And Long Fu's interests in poetry were too broad, covering almost everything in astronomy and geography. If he wanted to satisfy his strong thirst for knowledge, he could only make full use of his time.
After caring about her a few times, the young master found that it was nothing serious, so he stopped talking to avoid spoiling his sweetheart's mood.
When talking about the realm of cultivation, Zhu Xianning couldn't help but say a few more words.
According to what he said, Qingyun's understanding of the path to alchemy is actually the same as what most monks think, which is a bit narrow. This is because his practice time is still short.
But in fact, the journey of the Alchemy Cauldron also contains some supreme "Tao".
"road?"
Qingyun and Long Fushi asked in unison.
"Yes, I just said that the decline of inner alchemy means the change of eras and the change of laws. It is replaced by outer alchemy, which is the method by which monks today mostly use elixirs to improve their cultivation."
Looking around at the bustling crowd, Zhu Xianning's fingers danced like butterflies through flowers again, and then the presence of the three of them seemed to be reduced a lot again.
"This is not just a change of methods. Just imagine that the inner elixir can help people become immortals. If the outer elixir is really just a heresy, wouldn't we all be fools?"
"Damn, who just said that Alchemy is a heretic?"
Although Qingyun chuckled, he silently complained in his heart.
"There are thousands of avenues, all leading to the same destination. If you don't cultivate yourself, it's just an appearance. Only by complementing each other can you reach the right path."
The young man didn't know how much knowledge Zhu Xianning had learned from Mr. Fei, but he was able to score ninety points with his beard pinched and his air of being mysterious and mysterious.
Of course, both of them were smart people, and they quickly understood what Zhu Xianning meant.
Yes, elixirs and spiritual practice do not conflict. The two are complementary to each other. Since external elixirs can replace inner elixirs and become the mainstream practice method, they are also in line with nature and cannot be just a way to prevent people from becoming immortals. Or the stupid way of making wedding clothes for others.
In other words, shouldn't those alchemists who are weak in cultivation but want to refine the elixir of immortality, including ordinary monks who try to achieve enlightenment at once, be eliminated by heaven and earth?
Ding ding~: Maybe I’ve been watching too many harem dramas recently, and I’ve always been criticized for the male protagonist being a softie. I’ll improve it in the future, haha~
