"How late is it, fellow Taoist, to come..."
Looking at the figure in the white escaping light from a distance.
Rong Tuo's old face twitched, he picked up the robe on the ground and hurriedly put it on, and held his hand towards Chen Heng.
Chen Heng smiled faintly, pressed his head down, stopped at the foot of the steps, and walked slowly into the hall.
And as he approached, Rong Tuo couldn't help but feel his hair standing on end, and felt a trembling feeling in his heart.
The person who came was tall and tall, wearing plain clothes and a white crown. Although his face was covered with bamboo and wood and his appearance could not be seen clearly, he seemed to be a young Taoist with a refined and elegant demeanor.
But there was an indescribable power about him. Just standing still, the aura around him seemed to be tense. It was extremely fascinating and far different from ordinary people!
Rong Tuo is already at the eighth level of Qi training, and is not far away from cultivating True Qi and achieving foundation building.
But with his Qi training skills, when facing Chen Heng, his spiritual senses were still trembling with fear and trembling, blood flowed rapidly, and his whole body was stabbed with pain.
Before this, he had only experienced this bizarre feeling from the dead General Tong Gaolu of the Zhu Kingdom.
Both of them are like a majestic ancient mountain, with a majestic aura of smoke and dust, rolling stones and flying sand in their movements! Once others confront each other, it is like a snake and a rabbit bumping into a falcon. If they are not mentally tough, they may not even be able to resist, and they will be slapped into pulp!
"How is it possible? Is it possible that he has acquired the Taoist technique of refining the body outside Tong Gao Road?!"
Seeing that the distance between Chen Heng and himself was getting closer step by step, Rong Tuo sweated heavily on his forehead and screamed in his heart:
"But isn't that Taoist skill impossible to teach to others? In just a few days, he has actually reached the state that Tong Gaolu was in during his lifetime? His eyes are so bright that he can almost escape from his body!"
Rong Tuo could no longer hide the panic on his face at this time. The distance between him and Chen Heng was only three feet away. At this distance, if Chen Heng wanted to attack and kill him, it would only be a matter of a few seconds.
He actually wanted to set up the escape light and crash through the palace and fly away directly, but he was afraid of being underestimated, and his heart was like a mess.
"It seems it's quite hot in this hall, fellow Taoist?"
When Rong Tuo was still in doubt, Chen Heng stopped in his tracks and said with a half-smile.
"..."
Rong Tuo was startled and quickly wiped it with his hands, only to realize that he was already covered in cold sweat and his heavy clothes were soaked through.
He knew that Chen Heng noticed his other thoughts when he got rid of Tong Gaolu. He was deliberately venting his anger to humiliate himself.
But after all, Rong Tuo is old and mature, so he is not embarrassed.
After calming down his mind, he flicked the big thorn on his sleeve and greeted Chen Heng to sit down with a smile, as if nothing had happened before, and personally poured wine for Chen Heng.
About half an hour passed.
Several Qi practitioners from the Rong family entered the palace again, and when they saw Chen Heng, they all looked shocked.
Among them, Huang Zaichen, who was worshiped by the Rong family, was the most serious. When he looked at Chen Heng, his face turned pale and almost colorless.
Counting this person, he had fought with Tong Gaolu twice.
In the first encounter, only two of the Rong family's five worshipers survived, and the rest were torn apart by brutal hands; in the second encounter, Tong Gaolu's roar caused chaos in his body, and the fetal breath was out of control. He almost couldn't hold back the light and fell from the cloud to his death.
Even after Tong Gaolu punished him for treason, Huang Zaichen still had trouble sleeping at night. He dreamed several times that his body was torn apart and he bled to death, and he woke up screaming in horror.
As soon as they entered the hall, they saw Chen Heng sitting in it with leisurely time. His energy was powerful and faint, like mountains rising in the sky and rivers and seas flowing across his body.
If you don't look at the physical form, it's almost like Tong Gaolu has been reborn.
His mind was frightened for a while, and it was difficult to maintain the calmness on his face. He subconsciously turned around and was about to run out of the palace.
If Rong Jin hadn't had quick eyes and quick hands to pull Huang Zaichen in time, he would have made a bigger joke.
After these people sat down with their respective thoughts in mind, Chen Heng still looked calm and composed, with a calm look in his eyes.
It was Rong Tuo who saw that the atmosphere was a little stagnant, so he took the initiative to persuade them to have a drink and tell some romantic stories and gossip, which made the scene liven up a little.
Among them, Chen Heng also heard that the mortal named Sima Yu was frightened by Tong Gaolu and died of vomiting blood after returning home. The Forbidden Army General Longhu also wanted to choose another person.
Everyone has his or her own destiny, so he just treated it as a normal chat without any regrets, and just let it go.
After three rounds of drinking, Chen Heng saw that Rong Tuo was still talking and laughing, and Chen Heng had no intention of spending time with him. He put down the jade cup in his hand and asked Rong Tuo directly.
"It's easy to say, it's easy to say, the 'Jade Cell Mother Pond' has been established with a legal agreement. How dare I neglect my fellow Taoist for this."
A trace of embarrassment flashed across Rong Tuo's face, and he forced a laugh:
"Three covenants were made in the previous legal deed. The first one is that the property on Tong Gaolu's body should be obtained by Taoist friends. This clause has been properly fulfilled. The second one is that I, Rong, will present a thousand talismans as a gift. posture……"
Speaking of this, Rong Tuo clapped his hands.
When they were young, two beautiful palace ladies brought a large jade plate into the palace. The plate was filled with a thousand talisman coins. The aura inside was so bright that it looked like a ball of floating candles. Rong Jin and others were stunned when they saw it. It's because of envy.
"These two women are strangers brought to us by Dan Sujin last year. They were born with warm skin and a strange body fragrance——"
Before Rong Tuo finished speaking, Chen Heng waved his hand and put the thousand talisman money in the jade plate into the Qiankun bag, and said calmly:
"Thank you."
The rest of Rong Tuo's words were stuck in his throat, neither swallowing nor spitting out.
In the end, I could only let the beautiful palace lady leave, sighing in my heart, and swallowed a glass of bitter wine.
"Two of the three covenants in the legal deed have been completed, and only the last one is left."
Chen Heng said: "Did Taoist friend forget it?"
"..."
Rong Tuo, who was sitting in the main seat, actually fell silent for a moment when he heard these words.
The "Jade Cell Mother Pond" was built by Taizu of Rong State and has been passed down for more than 300 years. It has nourished several generations of Rong Qi practitioners. For a small family like them.
The "Jade Cell Mother Pond" is like a "spiritual vein". It is an important weapon that can be passed down to the family!
When Tong Gaolu pressed forward step by step, Rong Tuo panicked and chose to trade with the "Jade Cell Mother Pool".
But as soon as Tong Gaolu died, he felt a little regretful.
…
"That's it! That's all! He can only go in and practice for five days... No matter how good his Qi training skills are, how many days can he practice? There is no need to collect Qi!"
He has a legal bond with him, but he is afraid of Chen Heng's Taoism.
After hesitating for a long time, Rong Tuo still sighed and handed over his hands. With a faint gesture to Chen Heng, he took the lead and turned into a long stream of air and flew away, disappearing within a few breaths.
Chen Heng smiled slightly, bowed his head to Xuan Tao and others in the palace, and moved his body, turning into a pure white light and following him forward.
After the two left.
The people accompanying him in the hall all had complicated expressions and different expressions.
Rong Xuantao's expression was extremely serious, his eyes were as cold as a knife, and there was a hint of anxiety and uneasiness, while Rong Jin was a little unnatural, sometimes clenching his fists, sometimes stretching his palms, and restless.
As for Huang Zaichen, he was only filled with envy and jealousy.
"Jade Cell Mother Pool" is also known as Xiaolingmai.
The rich spiritual energy in it has already turned into liquid. One day of practice in it is equivalent to one month of practice in the outside world! It can be said to be the place where Qi Shi Jiuxia can truly practice their skills.
The "Jade Cell Mother Pond" is divided into fourteen levels, the lowest of which is just a rough embryo, which is only a few points better than those practiced outside by collecting qi for cultivation.
However, the Taizu of the Rong family was a monk at the third level of foundation building, and he was only one step away from opening up the Purple Mansion. For a person like this, the "Jade Cell Mother Pond" he dug was naturally of a lower or even middle grade.
It's a pity that Huang Zaichen has never experienced the taste of practicing in the "Jade Cell Mother Pond".
In addition to feeling disappointed, there is only pure envy in my heart, which is not like Rong Xuantao and Rong Jin's thoughts.
"Do we really want that person to enter the 'Jade Mother Pool' and just watch like this?"
Seeing that Rong Xuantao remained motionless, even though he was still afraid of Chen Heng in his heart, Rong Jin couldn't help but send a message and asked: "Didn't Taizu leave a few things in the clan? I don't know what they are. it works?"
"Brother asked me to get that 'White Lion Fantasy Picture' and keep it with me in case something goes wrong."
Hearing this, Rong Jin was happy at first, and then a little shaken.
Although the White Lion Fantasy Picture is good, it is hard to say whether it can remove Tong Gaolu, and it is even more unknown to face Chen Heng.
"Didn't Taizu still leave a few treasures? How about bringing out a few more?"
Rong Jin said cautiously.
Rong Xuantao looked at him sideways, sighed, and stopped talking.
Seeing that Rong Xuantao remained silent, Rong Jin could only force himself to calm down, no matter how anxious he was.
the other side.
The two of them lowered the escape light from an underground palace. After hearing Rong Tuo's repeated instructions, Chen Heng smiled lightly and opened a thick stone door.
As soon as the door was closed, Chen Heng felt as if he was about to float up.
What you can see is only a Chinese pond made of various kinds of gold, jade and agate. It is seven feet long and wide, as high as a pavilion. Countless spiritual energy in it is condensed like pulp, sometimes splashing, sometimes flying, whether hard or soft, There is also a mixture of movement and stillness, and a variety of mixed phenomena.
The stone door behind Chen Heng also seems to have a restriction. Once it is closed, it will be covered with countless runes and golden jars, which are consistent with the material of the "Jade Cell Mother Pool" itself, locking the powerful spiritual energy of this pool, and letting them continue to biochemically. , inexhaustible.
When the golden talisman with runes on the stone door first appeared, Chen Heng was suspicious that the Rong family was up to something. Later, when he saw that it was all right, he realized that his knowledge was shallow.
"No matter what your plans are, the legal contract has been established. You can only take action against me in five days."
Chen Heng flicked his sleeves, sat down on the ground, and said with a smile: "I just hope you can be smarter and don't seek death."
The regulations in the deed only stipulated that after Tong Gaolu was removed, Rong had to lend him the "Jade Mother Pond" for five days to practice, but it did not say what Rong would do after five days.
The legal contract they made is different from the legal contract between Chen Heng and Tu Shange. The regulations are much more tolerant. Even if they are violated, they will not be killed, but their moral conduct will be damaged, but it is inevitable.
As early as when Tong Gaolu died, Rong Tuo had a vague idea of getting rid of Chen Heng along the way, but he gave up because he was worried about Chen Heng's false identity as a disciple of the great sect and was bluffed by Chen Heng with his true energy.
Now when he was drinking in the palace, Rong Tuo's eyes often showed murderous intent, but he was forced to endure it.
To this.
Although Chen Heng is not disapproving, he does not regard him as a formidable enemy.
A single Tong Gaolu had forced them to do nothing, but regardless of the fetal breath, he was in the realm of Tai Su Jade Body, and he was able to escape easily.
Moreover, after practicing in the "Jade Cell Mother Pond" for five days, his Taoism can improve again. Even if the Rong family still has a few secret treasures and talismans, it is still unknown who will win and who will lose.
…
"What a magical and precious land. I am very lucky to have such an opportunity in front of the abyss of the earth."
Chen Heng took a deep breath, feeling refreshed and comfortable in his mouth and nose. When he breathed that breath into his inner organs, even his body seemed to be a little lighter, and his mind was happy.
This is the residence of Qi practitioners!
Even the "Jade Cell Mother Pond" is like this. As for the tenth-level spiritual veins and the beautiful scenery in the spiritual cave, it is even more desirable.
Chen Heng immediately hesitated, and after calming down his mind, he started to use the techniques in "Tai Su Jade Body" to nourish his body.
There is a reason why I chose Tai Su Jade Body instead of practicing Qi Realm.
In just five days, even if he didn't worry about collecting energy, it would be impossible to use up this pool of spiritual energy.
After all, refining spiritual energy and strengthening fetal breath is a rather complicated and trivial process.
Even if he practices the most exquisite Qi training skills in the Nine Provinces, such as the "Taishi Yuan Zhenjing Said by Shenwu Shuhua Daojun", in five days, he can only improve his Qi training level by one level. The third level was promoted to the fourth level of Qi training.
But Taisu Yushen was different.
This magical power to sanctify the body created by Tai Suzhang only requires the absorption of spiritual energy, which is very simple.
In five days, Taisu Jade Body was not only able to absorb this pool of spiritual energy, but with this support, his realm was at least able to take a few steps forward from the third level of the Mysterious Realm.
Let’s leave aside the significant increase in combat power brought about by physical strength.
It was a blessing for Chen Heng that he could only spare this pool of inspiration.
"Rong Tuo, if you are unkind, don't blame me for being unjust."
Chen Heng closed his eyes and slowly formed a "Photography Seal" with his hands according to the scripture instructions in "Tai Su Jade Body".
The stone room was originally filled with precious light and auspicious air, but it gradually became dimmer and dimmer every moment, and the sound that originally sounded like surging water also diminished a lot.
About three days.
Chen Heng ended his practice. He quietly experienced the changes that Tai Su Jade Body had brought to his body. His pupils were full of jade light and he looked up.
All that was seen was a shallow puddle of water in the "Jade Cell Mother Pond". If you didn't concentrate, you might just ignore it.
Chen Heng laughed, took out a pen and paper from his Qiankun bag, and rustled down a letter.
Then he came to the "Jade Mother Pond", stayed silent for a while, and carved words with his hands, leaving a line of large characters like a flying dragon and snake.
After doing this, he Shi Shiran opened the stone door and walked out of the underground palace.
Outside, there were several officials waiting, and they were surprised and happy to see that Chen Heng had left the "Jade Mother Pond" within five days.
But before they could come forward to ask, Chen Heng tiptoed a little, and the fetal breath gathered into a cloud, carrying him to Qingming in an instant.
"Thank you for your hard work, no need to send me off."
There was only a faint sound of laughter in the sky, and all the officials looked at each other, not knowing what to do.
Until it was time for a cup of tea.
Rong Tuocai rushed over in a hurry. He didn't care about the officials who saluted him. He pushed with both hands and jumped into the stone gate.
As soon as he took a look, the sight in front of him shocked him out of his wits.
The original majestic scene of auspiciousness and radiance is now gone.
There is no transfer of rosy clouds, no water light, and no clouds and smoke.
In the full pool of spiritual energy, there was only a thin water stain visible at the moment. Even the water stain was not very large, just the size of a baby's palm print.
"how come……"
Rong Tuo murmured to himself in a trance, circling unconsciously around the "Jade Cell Mother Pool". Suddenly, his fingers touched the deep and shallow bumps.
Looking closely, Rong Tuo felt that blood was rushing from the soles of his feet to his forehead.
Those are several large characters with a silver-hook stylus. The fortune is smooth and vigorous. The lines are ups and downs, orderly, and fluttering. The whole line is written in one stroke, with a kind of indulgence like a fairy's brush, and the world is unrestricted.
"The long sword of the Thirty-six Peaks is here, and the fighting spirit of the stars is majestic.",
Rong Tuo looked around tremblingly, and saw that there was a name at the end of the long sentence. When he saw it, it was the two characters "Chen Heng".
"Ahhhh! Kuangbi! Shuzi is crazy!"
Rong Tuo couldn't bear it any longer, he roared with anger and his vision went dark.
