Seeing that there seemed to be signs of being tampered with at the entrance of the stone chamber, Liu Qingyan carefully examined the anomaly. He felt panicked and worried about Qin Changze's safety. When he tried to unlock the restriction with his original method and successfully opened it, , my heart felt a little more settled.
He hurriedly passed through the dark passage and headed all the way to the stone chamber. When he saw that familiar figure still sitting in the stone chamber, Liu Qingyan truly let go of the big stone in his heart.
Uncle Qin is still safe, how good it is! Liu Qingyan couldn't help but curl her lips and looked at Qin Changze with a smile.
From the moment Liu Qingyan unlocked the restriction at the entrance of the cave, Qin Changze had already sensed him with his spiritual consciousness. Until he stood in front of him with all his hair and tail, his smile was the same as before. Qin Changze suddenly felt that the fame in the world was not important. , as long as this kid returns safely, he will have nothing else to ask for.
A year ago, Qin Changze practiced the Red Sun Flame Sword Heart Technique and with the help of the Stone in Fire body forging, he successfully repaired his own tendons, repaired damaged spiritual roots, and even made his Single Fire due to the characteristics of Stone in Fire. The quality of his spiritual roots had improved to a higher level. At that time, he secretly went out to look for Liu Qingyan, but found that he had not returned from his mission.
In this way, Qin Changze returned to the stone room and practiced day and night, trying to restore his previous cultivation. Because the quality of the spiritual roots was better and he had practiced it once before, practicing again from the Qi training period to the foundation building period was just a process of accumulating spiritual energy. The spiritual stone He has never been short of it in the past, and he will not be short of it now.
In less than a year, Qin Changze has returned to the early stage of foundation building. At this speed, it will only take two or three years to return to the original late stage of foundation building.
This experience from being reduced to a useless person to regaining his cultivation level made him feel as if he had returned to heaven from hell overnight, and this opportunity to return to heaven was brought to him by Qingyan, so he swore in his heart that in this life We must do our best to protect Qing Yan thoroughly.
Seeing Qin Changze open his eyes, Liu Qingyan said happily: "Uncle Qin, your body has recovered? Has your cultivation level recovered?" The abnormality at the entrance of the cave just now must be because Uncle Qin had gone out before, so he Reassured.
Qin Changze stood up and came to Liu Qingyan, patted his hair and said with a smile: "Don't worry, my uncle's body has recovered. His cultivation has not yet fully recovered, but it will only take two or three years to fully recover. You are finally willing to come back." , these two years have made my uncle very worried!"
Seeing that the young man who originally only reached his chest was now at the same level as his shoulders. His figure, which was originally as thin as a bamboo pole, had also plumped up in the past two years and now had the figure of a normal fifteen-year-old boy. Qin Changze suddenly felt something in his heart. A sense of relief that my boy is beginning to grow up.
Talking about this year's experience, Liu Qingyan couldn't help but pour out his bitterness to Qin Changze. He started from the cheating skills he practiced, to the great changes in Jinshi Valley, when he was crushed under the rocks, and how lucky he was to release Chen He was saved by the master, and then talked about the thrills on the way to Luo City, and because Amao was locked in the storage bag, he had to stay in Washington for a few days, and then he went to what Hua Xi said would happen in the world of cultivation. Important events and the fact that disciples from the inner sect and above of the Sword Sect returned one after another were not concealed.
Of course, there is no need to talk about the awkwardness of accidentally bumping into Master Shi Chen.
Liu Qingyan's mentality was as if he had gone through a life of near death and wanted to ask for comfort and praise after returning home to meet his elders. Qin Changze did not disappoint him, pulling him up and down to check him until he was confirmed After it was confirmed that he was fine, he smiled with relief and said: "The past two years have not been easy for you. You have been in so many troubles at such a young age, but now you are finally back safely. In this way, my uncle can rest assured!"
Liu Qingyan suddenly suppressed his smile, raised his eyes to look at Qin Changze, and said cautiously: "Uncle Qin, this time in Jinshi Valley, I also saw eldest brother... no, Master Xiao."
Qin Changze's eyes froze, but then he acted as if nothing had happened, and asked with a faint smile: "Oh, Master Xiao? He formed the elixir so quickly, and it turned out to be Xiao Qingyan! I heard that he didn't remember the past. What happened to you, he doesn’t remember you, are you feeling... sad?"
Liu Qingyan was also stunned for a moment, but he quickly came to his senses: "I heard that Master Xiao was the one who made the elixir in the past two years. As for not remembering me," Liu Qingyan's lips curved slightly, "I was just a casual rescuer of his." Among the people who have lived in this world, who is a very ordinary person, who has the right to talk about whether it is difficult or not to be sad about this kind of thing! But I will never forget the feeling of saving each other. Even if Master Xiao is now much higher than me in cultivation, whenever I have the opportunity in the future, I will I must also repay Master Xiao’s kindness.”
Qin Changze raised his hand and patted Liu Qingyan on the shoulder: "Qingyan is indeed very transparent. I am very happy that you can think so!"
Liu Qingyan nodded solemnly, and then changed the topic: "This time the master sect urgently summons the disciples from the inner sect and above to return to the sect. Uncle master, what do you think will happen?"
Qin Changze thought for a moment and said: "According to what you said, Xuanyu Sect and my Sword Sect are like this, so other sects may not be calm either. This is unusual, maybe... it has something to do with the rare treasure in Jinshi Valley It may be related, or it may be something else. To put it bluntly, your cultivation is not high now, and my cultivation has not recovered yet. If the sect does not announce what is happening on a large scale, let’s not get involved first. It is more important to improve our cultivation. "
"Well, uncle, I understand!"
When Liu Qingyan came out of the stone room, it was already the morning of the second day. Unknowingly, the two of them had talked for such a long time.
Back in his small courtyard, Liu Qingyan threw a few spiritual stones to Amao and let him chew the stones to grow hair. Then he fell on the bed and slept in the dark. Even if a practitioner can not sleep for a long time, Sleeping, after experiencing so many things, Liu Qingyan also wanted to have a good sleep and relax her body and mind.
It was a deep sleep, and when she woke up, it was still daytime. Liu Qingyan asked Amao, and then she realized that she had slept for two days and two nights.
After listening to what Qin Changze said, Liu Qingyan no longer inquired about this so-called important matter. Instead, she stayed in the small courtyard every day, practicing the Five Elements Body Refining Technique, swinging the sword and practicing basic sword techniques, and then practicing making talismans.
Making talismans is not a simple skill. Even though I have traced the runes of the earth wall talisman in my mind thousands of times, when I actually start writing, I still taste failure again and again.
From being able to draw only half of the runes to successfully making an earthen wall talisman, Liu Qingyan experienced no less than thousands of failures. During this period, he went to the market and purchased tens of thousands of talisman papers. After adding some cinnabar, nearly seven hundred spiritual stones were spent. Adding in the ones eaten by Amao, Liu Qingyan had less than two thousand spiritual stones in hand.
When practicing the art of making talismans, Liu Qingyan was quite willing to risk everything. He would not give up until he achieved his goal. Even when it came to burning spiritual stones, he persevered without hesitation.
Because he was completely groping by himself, from the initial failure to the subsequent success, Liu Qingyan did not rely on external help at all. He took it one step at a time, summed up the experience of failure and success bit by bit, and finally succeeded in making it. Talisman.
During this period, Liu Qingyan was almost buried by the sand brought by the semi-finished earth wall talismans several times. In the end, he used the transportation technique to transport the sand to the place where it was dumped. They were all disposed of near the cliff where the weapon refining waste was found.
After repeated failures, Liu Qingyan's success rate in refining earth wall talismans remained at around 50%. When he seemed to accidentally find out that the success rates of other talisman makers were mostly around 30%, Liu Qingyan said to himself The results are quite satisfactory.
He relies entirely on his own talisman-making skills, and because he has not been taught by his predecessors, he has also avoided many of the shortcomings of talisman-making that are currently common in the world of cultivation. Instead, he has become his own school.
Of course, it was impossible for him, a young monk in the Qi training period, to do it. When he encountered difficulties in the process of making the talisman, he dug out the jade slip he got from the stone chamber. After studying it, he found that the jade slip was The method of making talismans recorded in "The Basics of Talisman Dao" is somewhat different from that in "Fundamentals of Talisman Dao".
The method of making talismans recorded on the jade slips in the stone chamber emphasizes the way of nature, integrating the meaning of nature into the talisman brush. Each stroke drawn on the talisman paper coincides with the five elements; while the currently popular "Basics of Talisman Tao" emphasizes regularity. Familiarize yourself with the rune trends and make no mistakes when writing, otherwise you will fail.
Liu Qingyan originally practiced according to the introduction in "Fundamentals of Talisman Tao", but failed repeatedly. After refining the Talisman using the method described in the stone chamber jade slips, he seemed to have a new idea, and it didn't take long for him to successfully refine the earth wall Talisman. It was produced, and in the end it reached a 50% success rate.
There is an essential difference between the method of making talismans described in the stone chamber jade slips and the method in "Basics of Talisman Tao". The former coincides with the natural way, but the latter sticks to the old rules. It is clear at a glance what is good and what is bad.
However, the talisman-making method described in the former has been lost for tens of thousands of years. Today, the only talisman-making technique spread in the world of cultivation is the latter. The stone chamber Liu Qingyan discovered by chance not only changed Qin Changze's fate, but also laid the foundation for his own future. The direction of the Talisman!
After handing over the successfully refined earth wall talisman to the Zongwu Hall, Liu Qingyan finally made up for his sect contribution points of the past three years before the deadline set by the deacon uncle, avoiding the fate of being punished.
Over the past year, in addition to practicing the talisman making technique, Liu Qingyan has been diligently practicing sword skills and sword energy every day. After Uncle Qin's guidance, Liu Qingyan discovered the next step of using the sword in his hand to release sword energy. , that is, to cast sword energy without using the sword in your hand.
Although it was just a short sentence, in order to achieve the goal of casually casting sword energy, Liu Qingyan always thought hard but could not get the key point. However, sword energy is such a mysterious thing that it cannot be explained in words at all. It can only be understood until Liu Qingyan still failed to succeed in breaking through from the peak of the sixth level of Qi training to the seventh level of Qi training.
