When Xu Zhuang came out of Shangzhen Palace, another four or five hours had passed.
Since there was no one left in the palace, he was not polite to Master Daochen. He chose to go to Duxu Palace and Jing Zhongyue, and simply asked Master Daochen for some advice on cultivation. Although he was laughed at and scolded, he benefited a lot.
Walking outside the Shangzhen Hall, Xu Zhuang thought for a moment and realized that he was already here, so he was not in a hurry to return to Chongyun and show his face in the Jade Cauldron Hall before practicing some more in the hall.
The Shangzhen Hall is the highest of the three halls, so Xu Zhuang looked down and was too lazy to seal the letter to call the Golden Bridge. He saw exactly where he was going and jumped out. A breeze picked up and flew away with him. After a while, Then he settled outside the Jade Cauldron Hall.
After getting dressed, Xu Zhuang walked into the hall. He saw a Kun Dao in his thirties hurriedly walking towards the outside. Seeing Xu Zhuang come in, he was slightly surprised. He stopped walking and said politely: "Han Fuxia has seen the hall master." .”
Xu Zhuang nodded in response and asked casually: "Why is Elder Han acting in such a hurry?"
Han Fuxia said respectfully: "Today is the day to choose and train the young warriors who will bear the mountain. The deputy palace master ordered me to take the list and go to the warrior palace to see him."
"Oh?" Xu Zhuang raised his brows. The Danshan warriors claimed to have the ability to fight with the Golden Core cultivators. Although there was some water in them, they were still commendable.
Although a strongman is purely trained with foreign medicine and Taoism, not everyone can withstand the training, and those who are slightly qualified will naturally be more inclined to practice Taoism rather than embark on the path of a strongman. So choosing good seedlings is an important matter.
But even so, it is logical that the deputy master of the Jade Cauldron Hall does not need to be present in person. It can only be said that Yun Hengshi is indeed personally involved in the affairs of the Jade Cauldron Hall.
"In that case, let's go, Elder Han." Xu Zhuang asked casually, but Han Fuxia had important matters to attend to, so he didn't drag her around and just gave the order and walked to the palace.
Since Yun Hengshi was not in the palace, it saved Xu Zhuang the effort to go and see him, so he went straight back to the palace master's exclusive hall and entered the inner quiet room.
The inner quiet room is less than a hundred feet in size. It is equipped with treasure boxes, bookshelves and other hidden monks' belongings. However, Xu Zhuang rarely uses it, and it is basically empty.
There is a pure wooden table at the end of the quiet room. Although it is not as good as the Xuanbing table that Xu Zhuang obtained from Fayuan Cave, it is still favored by many Taoists.
Before the wood collapsed, there was a bronze incense furnace that was connected to the ground. Xu Zhuang flicked the lid of the furnace, and a stream of fresh air came out. He took a gentle breath and suddenly felt refreshed, his eyesight clear, and his whole body relaxed. .
This is the spirit essence provided by the three halls for each hall to practice. It is made from the most refined and pure Qing Qi and various kinds of spirit essence. It is of great benefit to the practice of any kind of Taoism and Taoism. No wonder there are many three The elders of the temple have been practicing in the temple for a long time.
As Xu Zhuanggui is the master of the Jade Cauldron Hall, the amount of supply is naturally the best among the three palaces. This is enough for the third level of Nascent Soul cultivation, and it is also very useful for him. Therefore, although he did not practice in the Jade Cauldron Hall for a long time, But when the Dharmakaya is in the temple, the spirit essence will be collected in a glass condensation pot, and will be used to return to the main body.
In fact, when Xu Zhuang's practice has reached this point, and the progress of Taoism is not slow, his real need for cleverness and cleverness has actually become a major shackle for his rapid progress. With daily practice, he can absorb a huge amount of energy. With few things to do, he really wanted to find a place to go to Dongzhen Hall to practice for a while.
Xu Zhuang flew down to the cave, crossed his legs and closed his eyes. With a slight breath, he inhaled the fresh air from the furnace into his nose. He spent about a cup of tea refining the spirit, and then he opened his eyes. With a flick of his sleeve, he took out two magic weapons given by the sect.
After thinking for a moment, Xu Zhuang put Duxu Palace on hold for the time being. Instead, he took the moon in the well in his hand, pinched a hand gesture, contemplated for a moment, and slowly spit out a ray of magic power from his mouth, which landed on the stone well body. , turned into a ball of mist, with vast runes hidden in it, and fell into the well in an orderly manner.
Duxugong and Jingzhongyue, although these two magic weapons are not specially refined for Taisu Taoism, they are also made by experts in the sect. The spirit of them is not resistant to Xu Zhuang, who has Taisu Taoism. With it in hand, it is not difficult to perform sacrifices.
This sacrifice only took three days and three nights, and Xu Zhuang was able to refine the first and second levels of Jing Zhongyue's treasures, and initially mastered the use of Jing Zhongyue.
Xu Zhuang put his spiritual sense into the well and felt it carefully. He immediately noticed the purple light in it, which was constantly changing, like the moon hanging in the sky, and never extinguished. He tried to use his magic to collect it, but for a long time he couldn't shake it. .
Xu Zhuang was not surprised. Instead, he changed the method. Suddenly, a flood of magic power opened up, and a vast water poured in. In just a few breaths, half of the magic power was poured in, and then he saw the mouth. Qi Yuanzhen suddenly rose a little.
Xu Zhuang raised his brows slightly, and then changed his eyebrows to close his eyes. Perhaps it was because the forbidden treasure refining ritual had not been completed yet, but this time it was a different situation.
Compared with the speed at which he poured in the mana, the mana flowing out of Yue Zhongyue was like a fine spring. It took a stick of incense to take out all the mana.
However, compared to the slow speed, the loss of transformation and retrieval is negligible.
"From this point of view, if it is not due to loss, the amount of mana that can be transformed into it is very considerable."
Xu Zhuang nodded his head slightly. As for the speed of using it, although it is slow, it may be improved as the sacrifice is completed. Moreover, his magic power is not so easy to be exhausted under normal circumstances. Now he is squandering it wantonly. At this time, you can also use the moon in the well to replenish your body, not to mention the three-dimensional elephant body, and the transformation should be wonderful...
Xu Zhuang suddenly realized that among the Yuanying monks, he might be praised as having "boundless magical power".
Only in this aspect, Jing Zhongyue has lived up to Xu Zhuang's expectations. However, Xu Zhuang chose Jing Zhongyue due to the entanglement between Su Yunsha and Jing Zhongyue, who had endless magical uses and defensive abilities. There is a reason.
He pressed the mana again, and most of the mana was absorbed by this energy. Until the mana of one yuan was almost bottomed out, he stopped the momentum, and then with a slight shake, the little mana was separated into a body.
As soon as Xu Zhuang's dharma body left the deity, he frowned slightly. The feeling of weakness with only a little bit of magic power left was really not comfortable. Without any need to communicate, he took the moon in the well from the deity's hand, and when he took the magic power, his body's magic power suddenly became stronger. A slight increase.
"Good!" Xu Zhuang watched the dharma body's mana gradually recover and couldn't help but clasped his hands in admiration. As he expected, with Jing Zhongyue's presence, his dharma body finally had the ability to act independently of the main body, and could live up to his 'residence in the world' name.
After summoning the dharma body halfway and becoming proficient in Jing Zhongyue's use, Xu Zhuang finally set his sights on Duxu Palace.
Jing Zhongyue had already surprised him. Naturally, he was more looking forward to this treasure that was his first choice. He made up the magic formula and began to draw the ladle in the same way.
This time, however, it took a little more effort. After four days and three nights, Xu Zhuang finally refined it into a 10% treasure ban. After experiencing it as usual, Xu Zhuang suddenly threw the Duxu Palace to the ground.
But they saw that Duxu Palace soared in the air, and at the same time, it also underwent wonderful changes. When it fell to the ground, it had turned into a portal. Although it was only about one foot high under the restrictions of Xu Zhuang, it still looked majestic. Upright and majestic.
Xu Zhuang stood up from the collapse and came to the outside of the door. He gently pushed in and looked through the door. Behind him, he was no longer in the Jade Cauldron Hall, but a whole new world suddenly appeared.
Xu Zhuang walked through the door. In front of him was a white jade screen wall. Walking around it, it turned out to be a magnificent palace. A few hundred steps away, there was a row of jade imperial pathways, six steps high, with a pattern on it. Yuhuimon's Amyrlin Seat.
"This..." Xu Zhuang walked up the royal road and looked at the seat. There was something strange on his face. With such a shape and condescending position, he couldn't help but think of the emperor's chair in the earthly golden palace. The refining people in the palace may have this preference.
While he was sizing up the hall, Xu Zhuang's eyes suddenly moved and he turned around, only to see a white-clothed scholar with a pure sun scarf on his head and a fish-dragon fan appearing strangely under the royal road. He looked at Xu Zhuang. He took one look, lowered his eyes, bowed respectfully, and said: "It's the new palace master who is here. I've been sleeping for a long time, so I didn't greet you in time. Please forgive me."
A strange look appeared on Xu Zhuang's face, he slowly walked down the royal road, and asked suspiciously: "Who are you?"
When Xuzhuang performed the sacrifice, he already knew that although Duxu Palace's treasures were perfect and had endless magical uses, his spirituality was not very strong, and he was still far away from achieving his true form. This person could not be the Yuan of Duxu Palace. spirit.
As for the outsider's talk, it is even more ridiculous. Duxu Palace is not a small world in the cave, but a forbidden magic weapon that he has refined. Even the real Yuanshen cannot break into it without his discovery.
The scholar in white sighed softly, cupped his hands and said: "Palace Master, the young Guan Bin is the soul body that resides in Duxu Palace, and serves as the steward for the previous palace master."
"Oh?" Duxu Palace has too many functions. Xu Zhuang hasn't checked all the physical examinations yet. He just went inside to check. He didn't know that this treasure also has the magical function of housing the soul. Hearing this, he investigated carefully and confirmed that it After confirming his words, he nodded and asked: "Just now I checked the restrictions and found that you are not the only one who has a soul body in the palace?"
Guan Bin heard the words and responded: "That's right. There are more than twenty servants in the palace, more than ten maids and concubines, and two elves...Does the palace master want to summon them?"
Xu Zhuang waved his hand and said, "Why are you staying in Duxu Palace?"
Guan Bin said: "The servants and maids in the palace are all miserable people. They received the kindness of the previous palace master and did not want to reincarnate after death. Fortunately, they were able to stay in the palace and can accompany the palace master. As for the elves, They all have their own reasons, if the Palace Master wants to know, I can prepare a report for the Palace Master one by one."
"Oh?" Xu Zhuang asked, "I have said so much, what about you?"
He observed that Guan Bin actually still had a little authority over the Duxu Palace. Of course, this was also given through Baojin, and he could take it back. But from this point of view, Guan Bin must be a person whom the previous palace master trusted a lot. .
The trust of the new palace master is not the same as the trust of Xu Zhuang, so Xu Zhuang must ask clearly.
Guan Bin was silent for a moment and sighed: "The younger one was a Taoist friend of the previous palace master during his lifetime. He stayed in the palace after his unexpected death."
"Oh?" Xu Zhuang nodded thoughtfully. Although Guan Bin's words were ominous, he did not ask any more questions, but suddenly asked: "Who is the previous palace master?"
Guan Bin was slightly surprised. He didn't expect that the new palace master didn't even know who the previous palace master was. However, after thinking about it, he suddenly understood, so he cupped his hands and said, "The previous palace master practiced in Taisu Zongzong. , Taoist name Zhaokong Zhenren."
"Zhaokong Zhenren?" Xu Zhuang muttered, and suddenly said with a solemn expression: "He is actually the ninth generation patriarch?"
Master Zhaokong is one of the nine generations of Patriarchs in the Patriarch Hall, but unfortunately... of each generation of Patriarchs, except for the Master who will be invited to the Patriarch Hall after abdication, usually only the fallen Patriarchs will be invited to the Patriarch Hall. After being invited into the Patriarch's Hall, Master Zhaokong probably no longer exists in this world.
However, in this way, the person in front of him was actually the Taoist friend of the ninth generation ancestor, a trusted person. Xu Zhuang couldn't help but cupped his hand and said: "It turns out that it is the senior who is here in front of me. I am the true successor of the twelfth generation of Taisu. Taeko Xu Zhuang, I have met the senior."
Guan Bin gave a bitter smile and responded: "How can I be treated as a palace master in a small boarding palace? If the palace master cares about his class, he might as well call me Taoist Friend."
When Xu Zhuang heard this, he cupped his hands and called out, "Friends of the Pipeline."
Hearing this voice, Guan Bin had a look of reminiscence on his face, cupped his hands and said, "Yes, Palace Master."
Xu Zhuang nodded slightly and asked: "Fellow Daoist lives in the palace. He was originally in charge of the affairs of Patriarch Zhaokong. Now that Duxu Palace is under my control, do you have any plans?"
Guan Bin hesitated: "I wonder if the palace master can let me go and reincarnate?"
"There is nothing wrong with you." Xu Zhuang immediately responded: "If fellow Taoist has this intention, I can release the restraint and order fellow Taoist to leave at any time."
Guan Bin didn't know he was relieved, and thought for a moment and said: "Palace Master is new to Duxu, so he probably doesn't know much about things in the palace. The younger one has lived in the palace for a long time, so he is quite familiar with it. He can sort it out for the palace master." Then leave."
"Good." Xu Zhuang bowed his hands and responded: "In that case, I have someone who is accompanying me. How about I call her here in the future, and my Taoist friend will explain everything in the palace to her before leaving. Late?"
Guan Bin bowed and said, "That's very good."
Xu Zhuang nodded, pondered for a moment, and then said: "Then please, fellow Taoist, take me to the palace?"
Guan Bin asked: "There are ten side halls in the palace. I wonder where the palace owner wants to go first? Among them, the Zhaokong Hall was originally the residence of the palace owner. The rest include two alchemy rooms, a furnace room, and a treasure house. , collection of books..."
Xu Zhuang's eyes lit up and he asked: "There is actually a collection of books in the palace? Are there any Taoist books left?"
As the founder of our sect, Master Zhaokong, Master Yuanshen, the collection of books he left behind really made Xu Zhuang coveted. As for the treasure trove, it must have been filled up in the treasury of the Dharma Hall.
Guan Bin heard the words and responded: "People from your ancestral family once went to the palace to check the library and made rubbings of various books, but they did not take away the books."
Xu Zhuang never thought that there would be such an unexpected joy, he put his hands on his hands and said with a smile: "Okay, let's go to the library first!"
