In the past two days, new rumors have arisen in Qingyang Sect.
It's more of a fact than a rumor.
"Have you heard? The man named Gu Chen seems to be unable to become a disciple of Elder Qingyangzi because of his unknown identity."
"Of course, how could someone with such unknown origins become a disciple of Elder Qingyangzi?"
"What's funny is that the other party doesn't have any cultivation, but he actually thinks he can become the disciple of Elder Qingyangzi. Who gave him the courage?"
"Other than Senior Brother Liu, who is qualified to be the disciple of Elder Qingyangzi?"
The news about Gu Chen's inability to become a disciple spread faster and faster than the previous news about Gu Chen's intention to become a disciple, and with the help of thoughtful people, it became more and more intense.
Gu Chen, who was in Donglai Peak, didn't know all this. He was meditating quietly, feeling the rhythm of the meridians in his body and becoming familiar with the new meridians in his body.
The new meridians condensed into a sword shape, which was really weird. It felt like it was my own meridians, but it didn't look like my own.
Gu Chen has been familiar with it in the past few days and is not in a hurry to practice it.
It's not that Gu Chen doesn't want to practice, but once he starts practicing, as soon as the Yuan Power starts to flow, the meridians will start to hurt. If the Yuan Power really starts to flow, the meridians will hurt like tearing apart, which always makes Gu Chen have to stop. Come down.
Learning from the past, Gu Chen did not dare to use his Yuan Power rashly until he was familiar with this meridians.
Meridians always have rhythm in the human body, just like blood must flow through the body through blood vessels and breathing needs to pass through the lungs. This rhythm of meridians is also natural and reasonable.
It's just like people don't notice the contraction of the lungs even though they breathe, people don't pay attention to the blood flow in the blood vessels even though the body is warm, and people often don't pay attention to the negligible rhythm of the meridians even though they practice.
In fact, the rhythm of meridians is useless to many people. Ordinary people cannot feel that rhythm. Although cultivators can feel it, they do not pay attention to it.
Just like if you have lungs, you will naturally be able to breathe. With blood vessels, there will naturally be blood flow. It is born this way. No one will explore why it is like this. Similarly, with meridians, there will naturally be rhythm, and that rhythm It has no reflected effect in practice, so no one would ever care about this kind of thing.
Gu Chen originally wouldn't care about it, but now he has no other way. He can't practice, so he can only keep trying everything he can notice to find clues.
Two days have passed since Gu Chen meditated under the ancient pine tree. During these two days, he did not move.
Qingyangzi sat on the stone table on one side, sipping tea and looking at Gu Chen with some doubts.
He didn't know that Gu Chen was feeling the rhythm of the meridians in his body. He only thought that Gu Chen was meditating and practicing. But the strange thing was that Gu Chen had been sitting for two days, but there was not even the slightest change in his body. The insignificant trace of Yuan Qi remained. Still so insignificant.
Gu Chen suddenly frowned and raised his chin slightly, as if he had caught something and was eager to catch something at the same time.
At this moment, a sword light shot out, pointing directly at Donglai Peak.
Qingyangzi raised his hand and put his two fingers together. A short sword stopped between the two fingers. There was a strange brilliance flowing on the sword. It was a sword script.
The sword book was sent by Zhong Ding, the head of the Qingyang Sect. The content inside was very simple. It said that since it had been decided to give Gu Chen a chance to realize the stone, it should be done sooner rather than later. It happened to be the so-called "Sword Book" in the Qingyang Sect next month. During the Jingzhe Month, it is customary for the disciples of the mountain sect to either become disciples or enlighten to the stone. The purpose is to allow Gu Chen to temporarily stay on the main peak, which also opens the door for the enlightenment of the stone.
After reading the content, Qingyangzi frowned and remained silent.
Zhong Ding originally did not agree to let Gu Chen realize the stone. Even if he agreed later, he was unwilling to do so. Being so proactive at this time made him feel that there was something wrong. He didn't know whether he should agree to it. It was just what Zhong Ding said in the sword book. The words are very reasonable.
At this moment, Gu Chen opened his eyes, and there was deep confusion and confusion in his eyes. Obviously, what he gained this time was limited and not as much as expected.
Qingyangzi asked: "But what's the problem?"
Gu Chen nodded and said with some hesitation: "I feel that the path I have taken in practice before is all wrong."
"All wrong?"
"It's all wrong."
The more Gu Chen said, the more certain he became, but the more certain he became, the more difficult it was for him to accept.
If those paths are wrong, it means that the Kunlun Sect's teachings are wrong. In other words, it also means that the Kunlun Sect's exercises are wrong.
As the most famous and number one sect of immortality in the world of immortality, the Kunlun sect, its cultivation techniques are considered to be directly pointing to the great road. But the path to immortality is actually wrong in the end?
Qingyangzi was silent and a little worried. He suspected that Gu Chen might have doubts about the past path after he abandoned his cultivation. He could no longer firmly believe in this path. This was a very bad beginning. He asked: " Why do you think...the path you took in the past was all wrong?"
It is a good thing to find out that something is wrong, but it is a big problem to find out that everything is wrong.
Gu Chen shook his head and said: "I don't know either, I just have this strong feeling, especially after my meridians were reshaped, they are a little different from before. This feeling is even more obvious."
Today's meridians form a sword shape, which is more complicated than the original meridians, but it is also obviously more comprehensive. It has gone out of the place where there were no meridians before, although the shape is really weird.
Qingyangzi thought of a possibility and said: "Maybe it's because your new meridians are different from before, so the flow of qi is the same as before, which makes you feel this way. Let me help you take a look first. "
Gu Chen nodded. Qingyangzi's cultivation level is extremely high. From his perspective, he might be able to see something. If it is because of abnormalities in his meridians that he feels that way, then this abnormality It would be better to resolve it early.
Qingyangzi stretched out his right hand and placed his fingers on the veins of Gu Chen's left hand, transmitting his energy.
He closed his eyes and prepared to explore Gu Chen's meridians.
But immediately after, Qingyangzi looked at Gu Chen in astonishment, with a face full of surprise and uncertainty. He could find Gu Chen's pulse, but could not detect Gu Chen's meridians.
After carefully sensing Gu Chen's body, he could clearly capture the extremely weak Yuan Power in Gu Chen's body, and Yuan Power could only exist in the meridians, but the fact was that he still couldn't find Gu Chen's meridians at all.
He tried several more methods, either changing the way Yuan Power was delivered, or increasing the influx of Yuan Power, but it had no effect at all. After a while, Qingyangzi withdrew his hand.
"How about it?"
Qingyangzi shook his head and said, "I...don't know either."
Not wanting Gu Chen to be affected by this, Qingyangzi didn't say that he couldn't detect Gu Chen's meridians.
Gu Chen was silent, thinking that he could only figure out a solution for this matter by himself. He did not dare to think that the Kunlun sect's techniques were all wrong, but now it seemed that because of the new meridians, those techniques were probably It doesn't suit me anymore.
Looking at the dagger in Qingyangzi's hand, Gu Chen asked, "What's the matter?"
Qingyangzi did not hide anything and told Gu Chen the contents of the sword book, which meant that Gu Chen could make up his own mind.
Gu Chen thought about it and felt that this might be a good choice. He has no way to practice now and is stuck in the road ahead. Although there is a trace of Yuan Power in his body, it is too weak. After all, he cannot be regarded as a true Yuan Refiner. Those who are cultivating immortals in the realm of immortality, or who may have some insights and breakthroughs after thinking about it in front of the Sun and Moon Twin Stones.
Thinking of this, Gu Chen said: "I'll go over."
Qingyangzi said: "The leader may have selfish motives. I'm afraid things are not that simple. Now you..."
Gu Chen smiled and said: "Father, after all, I used to be a cultivator in the One Yuan Realm. For the fourth generation disciples of Qingyang Sect, I am considered a strong one. Even if I don't have any cultivation now, I'm not that easy to manipulate. .”
After Qingyangzi heard this, he thought it was indeed true, but he still couldn't rest assured and took out a talisman.
"In this case, be careful when you go. If anything happens, burn this talisman. I will come right away. Even if nothing happens, you must burn this talisman before you go to Wu Shi. When you arrive, I will definitely arrive when the time comes.”
Gu Chen reached out and took it. The talisman was yellow and in the shape of a triangle. A stroke of cinnabar connected into a line on both sides of the talisman, which looked very special.
"I understand, foster father."
