In just a quarter of an hour, the Chaos Immortal Spirit Pearl swallowed 450 million spirit stones and elixirs. Its power was unparalleled and did not belong to the human world. Its immortal power was endless and shocked Fang Qing and the two old monsters.
Standing up slowly, Fang Qing shook his head. He had seen this situation more than once. The old gangster's power could never be measured by common sense!
He is now well-informed, has extraordinary vision, and his cultivation level is not low. However, he still cannot see clearly what kind of unparalleled power the old rogue Chaos Immortal Spirit Pearl possesses. This is the gap, an unimaginable gap.
Without moving any other supplies, Fang Qing disappeared into the town world in an instant. Looking at the extremely desolate pit, Fang Qing took a step forward, identified the direction, and headed towards Lingyun City at an extremely fast speed, which was unimaginable.
Traveling through the vast mountains, Fang Qing's eyes were filled with terrifying fighting spirit. After a life-and-death fight, he understood part of the essence of swordsmanship.
Putting aside the auxiliary power of sword intention, the pure swordsmanship and fighting skills are the skills that a true monk must master, and this is the original appearance of swordsmanship, which is extremely terrifying.
"When the heaven and the earth were not opened, there was chaos in the void space. There was no law and order of swordsmanship, but only the fierce destructive power;"
"The heaven and earth first opened, the essence of heaven and earth was strong, and many creatures were born. Some strong men observed the most essential destructive power between heaven and earth, and created basic combat skills suitable for fighting."
"Subsequently, countless creatures came forward and opened up a path of swords, imprinting it into the world and passing it on to future generations, making up for the shortcomings in the fighting method. Since then, the art of swordsmanship has been vast and has an incomparably far-reaching influence."
"So, swordsmen must not only learn and understand martial arts, but also understand the essence of swordsmanship and make the martial arts more powerful, so as to dominate the world!"
While advancing at top speed, Fang Qing gradually understood the purpose of the old gangster's Chaos Immortal Spirit Bead, sealing his other powers in order to let him understand the essence of the sword and completely broaden the path of the sword. It was a well-intentioned thing.
Fang Qing's heart was full of gratitude. The old gangster was indeed a strict teacher and a famous teacher. Instead of giving advice on Fang Qing's tactics and martial arts, he found a new way and started directly from the essence of tactics and martial arts. It was simple but difficult, just look at Can he understand the essence of swordsmanship?
"Between heaven and earth, all laws and ways all have their origins. If you understand one of them, you will have endless benefits! The origin of swordsmanship? The essence of swordsmanship?"
"This shouldn't be a concept. I need to slowly ponder the deeper meaning. Senior Huangwu is right: after looking at the swords in the world, you can understand and understand the true meaning! My journey has just begun."
Fang Qing thought of what Qiao Feng told him that day. That sentence broadened his path of swordsmanship a lot. He had not yet touched the original level of swordsmanship.
Perhaps, as Jiao Huangwu said: Looking at the swords in the world and understanding the true meaning, Fang Qing needs to enrich himself with countless sword skills.
By then, having clearly understood the word "true meaning", Fang Qing should be able to initially touch the "origin of kendo". Fang Qing is very confident about this.
In this way, Fang Qing was thinking about the way of the sword while he was on the road. Half a day later, Fang Qing saw a majestic ancient city, located in a mountain range, with a palace in the center towering into the sky. At that time, the symbol of power of the Lingyun Dynasty - —Lingyun Palace!
Soon, Fang Qing arrived at the bustling gate of Lingyun City. The silver-white metal gate was extremely tall and full of majesty. It was engraved with cloud patterns, which were the symbolic cloud patterns of the Lingyun Dynasty.
"Little brother, is this your first time coming to Lingyun City?"
Just when Fang Qing was looking at the gate of Lingyun City, not far away from him, a middle-aged man spoke to him with a smile. He was a master of the first level of Yuxu Realm.
"Yes, I grew up in the mountains. This is my first time coming to Lingyun City. Who is your senior...?" Fang Qing nodded to the middle-aged man and said these words. He asked the middle-aged man.
"Hahaha, what senior is not senior? I'm Xiagu Beichun, from Danding City. I wonder what I call my little brother?" The middle-aged man was very free and easy, and told Fang Qing his name and origin. He asked Fang Qing.
"My subordinate Qin Xuanhuang is also a monk from the Lingyun Dynasty. He is not in the eight major cities and comes from a remote mountainous area."
Fang Qing revealed his name, but still kept his true name and origin secret. There was no other way. The name "Fang Qing" was too eye-catching, and he didn't want to expose it yet.
"Qin Xuanhuang? Are you Qin Xuanhuang? Hiss! Qin Xuanhuang, the owner of a special physique? It's really amazing."
The middle-aged man Gu Beichun was shocked. He looked at Fang Qing in surprise, his eyes full of shock and surprise. Fang Qing was extremely curious and said the words "possessor of a special physique".
"Yes, I am Qin Xuanhuang. Have you ever heard of me, senior ancient?"
Fang Qing nodded, feeling very helpless in his heart. He walked in the world of Qin Xuanhuang under the name Qin Xuanhuang, but he still couldn't get rid of the helplessness of becoming a "celebrity", and he could still dominate!
"Hahaha, it turns out to be Brother Qin. The battle between the brothers in Yandang Mountain can be said to be a household name. If anyone in the Lingyun Dynasty has the most famous name, it is naturally the Qing Emperor Fang Qing. The second one should be Qin. Brother, I didn’t expect that Gu met a young hero today.”
Gu Beichun burst into laughter and looked extremely excited. He was like a star-chasing fanatic, looking at Fang Qing feverishly. The monks around him kept gathering around and saluted Fang Qing, which made Fang Qing even more depressed. .
He originally wanted to enter the city in a low profile, but he didn't expect that Gu Beichun would reveal his whereabouts in one voice. The gate of Lingyun City was bustling with activity, and many monks rushed to surround him, wanting to get to know him.
Soon, surrounded by everyone, Fang Qing and others walked towards Lingyun City and arrived at the city gate. The master of the third level of Yuxu Realm who guarded the city gate bowed slightly to Fang Qing and let them go directly, with an extremely respectful attitude.
Others did not receive the same treatment as Fang Qing, and no one who had to pay the city entrance fee was left behind. Many people did not care about the small amount of money and immediately paid the city entrance fee. As Fang Qing walked towards Lingyun City, his fanatical attitude made Fang Qing Qing is so funny, what about it?
The prosperity of Lingyun City is definitely not comparable to that of Yangchun City. Here, there are countless shops lined up in rows. Four or five-story restaurants and shops can be seen everywhere, resplendent with splendid lights and high hanging lanterns.
It was bustling with traffic, and there were countless monks, merchants, and people coming and going. Fang Qing looked at the scene around him and kept nodding, mentally comparing Lingyun City with other cities he had seen.
From Fang Qing's point of view, even if Lingyun City is not as good as Guanghan City and Jinjiao City, it is still one of the top cities in the four dynasties.
According to Gu Beichun who was beside him, Lingyun City ranked high among the cities of the four dynasties, ranking in the top three, second only to Qingjiao City and Batian City, and one point more prosperous than Luoxia City.
Because there is the Lingyun Secret Realm deep in Lingyun City, and the aura of heaven and earth in Lingyun City is a bit richer. Many casual cultivators like to live in Lingyun City. This is one of the reasons why Lingyun City ranks among the top three.
Regarding the issue of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth in Lingyun City, Fang Qing has sensed it since entering Lingyun City. The spiritual energy of heaven and earth here is indeed much richer, even richer than the spiritual energy of heaven and earth in the vast mountains outside the city. He has already felt something. Guess, that's because of Lingyun's secret realm.
"Brother Qin, this street is Lingyun Street, the main street of Lingyun City. All the way south along Lingyun Street is the direction of Lingyun Palace, which is also the center of political power of Lingyun Dynasty."
Gu Beichun spoke, and he began to introduce the situation of Lingyun City to Fang Qing. Through Gu Beichun's introduction, Fang Qing learned a lot of information.
Lingyun Palace is located in a mountain range five hundred miles to the south. Lingyun Secret Realm is located deep in one of the spiritual mountains. It is a forbidden area of Lingyun Dynasty and it is impossible for ordinary people to approach there.
"Brother Gu is very familiar with Lingyun City."
After some exchanges, Fang Qing got to know a thing or two about Gu Beichun's personality. He was quite a good person, open-minded and informal. He sincerely made friends with him and didn't have much utilitarianism.
"Brother Qin doesn't know. After four hundred years of struggle, several generations of our family were lucky enough to open a small grocery store on Lingyun Street, selling some elixirs, elixirs, weapons and the like. Gu I often come to Lingyun City for inspections, so I have some understanding of Lingyun City."
Gu Beichun explained to Fang Qing with a smile, which made Fang Qing a little surprised. This guy is still a businessman, so you can't tell.
The two kept walking along Lingyun Street for about three miles. Gu Beichun pointed to a shop on the west side and said: "The 'Yingchun Store' is the shop opened by Gu. The Gu family has limited financial resources, so they can only shop in Lingyun." Opening a shop on the outermost edge of the street made Brother Qin laugh."
After hearing Gu Beichun's words, Fang Qing immediately looked over. It was a small shop with three floors. It was simple and unpretentious. Set against the surrounding luxurious and splendid shops, it looked even more inconspicuous and shabby. Only a few young monks came and went.
"That's right! The little hermit hides in the wild, her nobility is restrained, and the unicorn hides in the fields. Brother Gu's shop has great potential, but who knows if it will rise in the future?"
Fang Qing looked at the Yingchun store and opened his mouth. He saw the potential of the Yingchun store and opened his mouth in a meaningful way, which made Gu Beichun extremely happy.
The two soon arrived at the entrance of Yingchun Store. Gu Beichun invited Fang Qing to sit inside. Fang Qing pondered for a moment and immediately decided to stay in Yingchun Store temporarily to learn about the situation in Lingyun City and look for opportunities to visit Lingyun Danding Pavilion and Xia. The whole family met with the Lingyun royal family again.
Looking at the situation in the Yingchun store, Fang Qing nodded. The Yingchun store sells a variety of things. Although there is nothing precious, the quality is good.
Some of the yellow-level elixirs are of sufficient age and are not fraudulent. There are many ordinary-level weapons that are forged properly and are no less than the weapons sold by the Fang Family Divine Weapon Pavilion.
There are not many elixirs, they are all low-grade yellow-grade elixirs. On the surface, the highest-grade elixirs on display are Huang-grade high-grade detoxification pills and Zhenyuan pills. It seems that Gu Beichun has no progress in elixirs. purchasing channels.
"I've met Third Uncle."
Behind the counter, an old man bowed to Gu Beichun and spoke. Fang Qing was speechless. The old man was two hundred years old, but his cultivation level was only at the third level of the Martial Phase Realm. His potential was basically exhausted, and he was senile. He called Gu Beichun. The third uncle made many people look at him with strange eyes.
"Well. Come, brother Qin, let me introduce to you. This is Gu Polu, Gu's cousin, the shopkeeper of Yingchun store. Polu is responsible for all the large and small affairs and management matters of Yingchun store." Gu Beichun Nodding, he introduced Gupolu to Fang Qing, and Fang Qing bowed his hands to Gupolu.
"Polu, this is my friend. Please arrange it. I want to have a few drinks with Brother Qin."
Gu Beichun told Gu Polu and immediately led Fang Qing towards the depths of the Yingchun store. Gu Polu's eyes were full of surprise and confusion.
He did not dare to neglect, and immediately asked the waiter to take care of the Yingchun store, and he personally went to arrange Gu Beichun's account.
In an ancient room deep in the Yingchun store, Fang Qing and Gu Beichun sat down at a rosewood table. Gu Beichun poured tea for Fang Qing with an extremely polite attitude.
This scene happened to be seen by Gu Polu, who was carrying a large food box and two jars of wine. Gu Polu was shocked. He knew that his third uncle was extremely ambitious and had the highest talent in the history of the Gu family. , is the hope and future of the Gu family.
His status in the Gu family is extremely high, and even the head of the old family has high hopes for him. All the resources of the Gu family are fully open to Gu Beichun, in order to allow the Gu family to gain a foothold in Danding City and Lingyun City.
Today, Gu Beichun, the proud figure of the Gu family, treated a young man who was only at the ninth level of the Martial Arts Realm with such courtesy, which shocked Gu Polu.
He once again confirmed his guess that this Brother Qin's background was absolutely extraordinary and astonishing, not to mention his talent.
Have you ever seen a peak martial arts master in his mid-twenties? How many people there are in Lingyun City can be counted on one hand.
"Huh? Polu, why didn't you bring the jar of sapphire wine?" Gu Beichun glanced at his cousin, his face sank slightly, and he asked Gupolu in a deep voice.
"The third uncle doesn't know. Three days ago, the second uncle entertained Mr. Xu, the deacon of the Golden Spear Sect, and used sapphire wine, so..."
Gu Polu's heart tightened, and he immediately explained to Gu Beichun. Gu Beichun raised his eyebrows, glanced at Fang Qing with some embarrassment, nodded, and signaled Gu Polu to put down the food and wine.
"Brother Qin, I'm really sorry, Gu..." Gu Beichun smiled sarcastically, his eyes full of helplessness, as if he had something to hide.
"It doesn't matter! Brother Gu is too polite. Qin is not very good at drinking. It's a blessing to be able to drink with Brother Gu. I have some wine here. Brother Gu might as well try it."
Fang Qing waved his hand to signal Gu Beichun not to be polite. With a wave of his hand, two dark red jade altars appeared on the table, exuding a rich and refreshing aroma of wine.
That was the spiritual wine he got from capturing Sun Feifan that day. There was really too much of this spiritual wine in the world, especially the collections of the Nine Saints and Nine Heavenly Masters. It was even more abundant, with hundreds of jars. He didn't even have time to organize and check the high-grade spiritual wine.
"Hiss! Three hundred years of vermilion fruit wine? Xuanjie top-quality spiritual wine? This...this..."
Gu Polu, who was anxious at the side, was shocked. The old guy was well-informed and knew the spirit wine that Fang Qing took out in an instant. Gu Beichun was also shocked. He had never seen a top-grade Xuan-level spirit in his life. As for wine, it was an eye-opener today.
"Oh? Shopkeeper Gu seems to be a person who knows a lot about wine, but Mr. Qin's understanding of the art is very superficial. Shopkeeper Gu, please sit down, and can you explain it to Mr. Qin?"
Fang Qing was a little surprised. His knowledge of spiritual wine was indeed very shallow. He had seen some introductions in Qianqiu Miscellaneous Notes, but had no time to study it. He only knew that spiritual wine could also improve the strength of monks.
"This...?" Gu Polu was quite flattered. He glanced at Gu Beichun and wondered whether he should accept Fang Qing's invitation.
"Since Brother Qin wants to ask for advice, Polu will sit down for now and I will also listen to the knowledge of the spirit wine." Gu Beichun nodded and asked Gupolu to sit down.
Gu Polu took out three ordinary jade bowls and personally poured wine for Fang Qing and Gu Beichun. His attitude was extremely sincere and filled with heartfelt gratitude and excitement.
The vermilion wine is like amber, and the rich aroma of the wine fills the whole room, making people feel comfortable all over. The medicinal power in it cannot be underestimated.
Gu Polu toasted first to Fang Qing and then to Gu Beichun. He looked extremely respectful and cautious. Fang Qing picked up the toast, nodded to Gu Beichun and Gu Polu, and took a small sip. The wine had a mellow aroma. , accompanied by a slight sweetness, turns into a warm current in the stomach, which is extremely comfortable.
"Good wine! Thank you Brother Qin. Gu Beichun is really lucky to be able to drink such good wine."
Gu Beichun picked up the wine glass and took a sip of Zhu Guo Liquor. His face was full of gratitude. He put down the wine glass and thanked Fang Qing with a very respectful expression.
Gu Polu carefully took a sip of the red fruit wine. For a moment, power fluctuations appeared on his body, and his face turned red. Before he could express his gratitude to Fang Qing, he immediately used the Gu family's skills to dissolve the pure medicinal power of the red fruit wine. Soon, Gu Polu Lu's cultivation realm has improved, reaching the peak of the early stage of the third heaven of the Martial Phase Realm.
"Gu Polu thanks fellow Taoist Qin for the wine."
Gu Polu stood up and bowed to Fang Qing to salute. His face was full of gratitude. The Gu family was just a small family and could not afford Xuan-level elixirs and elixirs. He stayed in the early twenties and thirties of the Wuxiang realm. Years have passed, and now he has reached the peak of the early stage of Wuxiang Realm in an instant, and Zhuguo Wine is indispensable.
"It's okay! Shopkeeper Gu, please sit down and let's talk about the art of spiritual wine."
Fang Qing waved his hand, indicating that Gu Polu didn't need to be polite. A mere glass of red fruit wine was really insignificant to the wealthy Fang Qing.
"Gu Polu knew everything. The red fruit wine produced by fellow Taoist Qin was made of the top-grade Xuan-level elixir red blood vermilion fruit as the main ingredient, the lower-grade Xuan-level fire grass, the lower-grade Xuan-level three-leaf sunflower, and the top-grade Huang-level hundred-year-old elixir. Red ginseng is used as an auxiliary ingredient, and four elixir liquids are combined to form the main liquid of the spirit wine."
"In addition to the fire spirit rice, Sanyang rice, and the blood of the flame demon lion, after three steaming and three brewing methods, the essence was extracted, and it was collected and sealed in a jade altar."
"Finally, it was hidden deep in the ground for three hundred years, and was nourished by the heavy power of the earth's energy, so that this red fruit wine could be obtained. This wine has the effect of warming the meridians and nourishing the flesh and blood. It has great effects on monks in the transcendent realm. It is precious. Incomparable. ”
Gu Polu explained to Fang Qing the brewing method and efficacy of Zhuguo wine, and Fang Qing nodded, feeling that the art of brewing wine was profound and profound, no less than refining elixirs and making medicines.
