Thought for a while.
Huang Ming regained his energy and began to look at the three jade slips recording the exercises.
The first jade slip.
What is recorded is a fire-based technique called "Fire Flame Kung Fu", which has three levels.
But there is something strange about this "Fire Flame Gong".
The first level is the advanced mental training method used to improve Qi refining.
The second level is a separate palm technique called "Flame Palm".
The third level is even stranger.
It turned out to be some individual fire spells.
For example, fireball, fire pillar, pyroblast, ring of fire, wrath of fire, etc.
It's a bit like a compilation of fire exercises.
It seems that this technique is not the original version.
Rather, this elder simplified and synthesized it based on his own cultivation experience.
The second jade slip is a "Secret Method of Refining Weapons".
It records the refining methods of more than ten kinds of powerful magic weapons as well as the required heaven and earth spiritual materials.
It seems that the elder Zhifan of Miyun Sect should have been a master of weapon refining.
As for the last jade slip.
Recorded are some common spells that are not fire-based.
For example, the fading technique, the breath gathering technique, the turtle breath technique, the sound transmission technique, the divine search technique, etc.
They are all small, uncompleted spells, but very practical.
After reading the jade slips of the exercises.
Huang Ming began to read the cultivation experience and skills left by Elder Zhifan again.
Among them happened to be the introduction about spiritual roots and heavenly calamity that Huang Ming was most concerned about.
According to the jade slip.
Anyone who practices immortality must first learn to refine Qi, regardless of the attributes of their spiritual roots.
Only by refining Qi and raising one's five senses to a certain level and entering the foundation-building stage can one practice those techniques with great masters.
In other words, the Qi refining period is about laying the foundation.
Only when you reach the foundation building stage can you be a true immortal cultivator.
But when it comes to the foundation building stage, you have to choose the corresponding cultivation method according to your own spiritual root attributes.
Only in this way can long-term mana improvement be guaranteed.
As for the later stage, you will continue to practice the corresponding Five Elements exercises or practice other exercises.
For example, Buddhism and Taoism, Confucianism and Taoism, even ghost ways, witch ways, demon ways, etc.
It all depends on personal preference.
As for the spiritual root test, it is actually very simple.
The spiritual energy of heaven and earth absorbed by immortal cultivators is originally composed of the energy of the five elements.
Such as checking spiritual roots for others.
All he needs to do is use his kung fu to inject into his body the spiritual energy of heaven and earth that has just been absorbed but has not yet been refined.
Then look at the absorption of spiritual energy by its spiritual roots, and you can judge the properties of its spiritual roots.
For example, when the Qi of the Five Elements enters the body, it is completely transformed into the Wood Spirit Qi, which is the wood-attribute Heavenly Spirit Root.
More than half are wood auras and the others are water auras or fire auras.
It is a dual-attribute or three-attribute Mu Zhen spiritual root.
The kind that can be transformed into four or five attributes at the same time is a pseudo spiritual root.
but.
If it can be transformed into five attributes, and can also sublimate the five attributes into another kind of non-Five Elements Qi, it is a strange spiritual root.
As for thunder, wind, ice, yin (darkness), and yang, it depends on which one it transforms into.
It would be even easier if you test it for yourself. You will know after you practice and refine it yourself.
As for the heavenly calamity, it is also recorded in the jade slips.
The so-called heavenly tribulation is also called the tribulation of thunder.
It is a constraint and test imposed by the laws of heaven and earth on cultivators.
It's a bit like an exam in the secular world. Only those who pass the exam can stay.
There are two types of heavenly tribulations, one is called the tribulation of ascension.
It refers to the tribulations that need to be experienced when one has completed cultivation in one realm and is preparing to ascend to the upper realm.
Generally, it only appears in the Nascent Soul stage, when you advance to the Divine Transformation stage, or when you become a true immortal in the Mahayana stage.
The other is called the calamity of destiny.
It is said that after reaching the Divine Transformation Stage, it doesn’t matter whether you are in the Void Refining Stage or the Integrated Stage, or even the Mahayana Stage.
As long as you don't become an immortal, there will be a destiny disaster every few hundred years.
Only by successfully overcoming the tribulation can you continue to practice. Once you fail, you will directly perish and fall into reincarnation.
However, disasters of destiny are also divided into strong and weak ones, and the number of sky thunders also varies from person to person.
Some only need to go through one step, while others have as many as five or six.
This is related to one's personal cultivation realm and the exercises practiced.
The stronger one is, the greater the power of the heavenly tribulation that one needs to face, and the greater the number of heavenly thunders.
Therefore, since ancient times, there have been very few people who have truly achieved enlightenment and become true immortals. Nine out of ten people died during the tribulation.
This is also the reason why those high-level monks stay in seclusion all year round and rarely appear in the world.
Because the elder Zhifan of the Miyun Sect is already in the late stage of Nascent Soul, he is also faced with the future of advancing to become a god and transcend tribulations.
Therefore, these records about the heavenly calamity in the jade slips were what he searched for specifically to help him survive the calamity in the future.
After reading all the jade slips, Huang Ming felt very complicated.
There is both the joy of knowing the details of the spiritual roots and the heavenly tribulation, and also the worry about the heavenly tribulation.
After all, he has acquired spiritual roots, and every time he advances to a higher level, there will be a catastrophe.
The jade slip didn't mention the acquired spiritual roots, let alone the minor tribulation. Perhaps Elder Zhifan didn't know about it at all.
But a catastrophe is a catastrophe. How could Huang Ming dare to try it without sufficient preparation?
He now finally understood why Xiao Hua was looking for items that could help him overcome the calamity.
The road to immortality is not as beautiful as imagined.
I pondered for a long time.
Huang Ming put away his thoughts and put all the jade slips into the storage bracelet.
He looked up at the remains of the Miyun Sect elders and hesitated for a while.
In the end, I couldn't help but feel curious.
He stood up again and went to check the red sword at the Dantian of the skeleton.
Huang Ming bowed to the remains.
Then he waved his hand and summoned the long red sword in the skeleton into his hand.
Looking at this sword, it is about three feet three long and two inches wide. It has a dragon swallowing mouth and a gold plate.
The sword is engraved with ancient flame patterns, and the handle is inlaid with dragon head buttons. The sword flashes red when you shake it, and a wave of heat hits you when you hold the sword.
This is a superb fire attribute sword.
Huang Ming habitually injected some mana into the sword.
But there was only a flash of red light.
The long sword began to vibrate on its own in Huang Ming's hand, as if it wanted to pierce the air.
Huang Ming was startled.
He quickly picked up the "Prison-Suppressing Ming King Jue" and a golden light appeared in his hand, and he firmly grasped the red sword.
But the long sword still struggled violently in Huang Ming's hands, making "wuwuwu" sounds.
"Wow, what level of magic weapon is this? It has such strong spirituality?"
"Is it another magical treasure?"
Huang Ming couldn't help but feel secretly happy as he looked at the long sword that was constantly struggling in his hand and making bursts of golden sounds.
"Hey, that's not right. Tongtian Lingbao has its own formula, but this sword doesn't have it."
"Is it just a high-level magic weapon?"
"Hiss, how can a high-level magic weapon have such strong spirituality?".
Huang Ming couldn't figure out the origin of this red sword.
But I also know that this red sword must be a good thing.
Since I can't figure it out for a while, I'll put it away first and talk about it later.
After putting away the long sword, Huang Ming came to the left wall and began to look at the two rows of large wooden boxes.
The row of wooden boxes above was empty, and Huang Ming was a little disappointed.
But now that I'm here, how can I be worthy of myself if I don't open them all and take a look.
So Huang Ming moved the empty boxes on the upper floor and opened the outermost wooden box on the lower floor.
"These are..., mid-level spiritual stones! Your sister is getting rich!".
Huang Ming couldn't help but blow out a snot bubble.
The box is full of mid-level spiritual stones that are one to one hundred, sparkling.
Huang Ming's eyes widened and his saliva drooled for nearly a meter.
There are six large boxes, each with at least 300 pills.
Three times six, that's 1,800, which is equivalent to 180,000 low-level spiritual stones.
This is not called making a fortune, he is clearly making a fortune.
