More than two months later, it was early autumn. In a certain area of mountains between Guanluo and Guanluo, the vegetation was still green, the flowers were in bloom, and the scenery was beautiful. Most of them were hot springs underground, and the ground was extremely warm.
In this rare and beautiful place, Zhao Qing walked leisurely and saw three or two cranes, groups of white deer, squirrels and rabbits on the roadside, all of which were not surprised.
This is the Jueqing Valley that the sweeping monk said he once fought with Dugu Qiubei. It is also the place where the Gongsun family, the owner of the valley, lives in seclusion, like a paradise in the world.
Although Zhao Qing had heard the sweeping monk tell him the general location, it was really difficult to find the entrance. He circled back and forth and took many detours before he successfully entered the valley.
At that time, the ancestor of the Gongsun family served as an official in the Tang Xuanzong Dynasty. Later, when he saw Yang Guozhong's chaos in the government, he became angry and lived in seclusion in this valley. For hundreds of years, he had been a vegetarian, refining elixirs and collecting medicines, isolated from the world.
According to Zhao Qing's personal investigation, the internal skills practiced in the valley are some skills that teach people to abandon love and cut off desires, and require a large amount of precious herbs to assist in alchemy. They should be the inheritance of Taoist alchemy and pursue health and longevity.
When the rare medicinal materials in the valley are used up, most of the martial arts inheritance in the valley will be difficult to cultivate, becoming much more difficult, and the effects will be far less than before.
During the Divine Eagle period, after Qiu Qianchi destroyed the hundreds of Heartless Pills left by his ancestors, Gongsun Zhi couldn't even find all the precious medicinal materials to prepare the pills. This can be seen from the fact that he has not refined them again for more than ten years.
Of course, Zhao Qing didn't attach much importance to the Gongsun family's alchemy cultivation techniques, because in this era when there were still a lot of medicinal materials, this generation of Jueqing Valley Masters only had the skills of first-class experts from the outside world. It can be seen that the techniques they inherited were those .
But speaking of it, there are hot springs and floor heating in the mountains of Jueqing Valley, and all kinds of rare and exotic grasses grow there. It is indeed a wonderful paradise, quite suitable for people to maintain health and live in seclusion.
…
More than two months ago, after the Shaolin Temple conference, Xiaoyaozi left with Tong Lao, Wuyazi and many other disciples of the Xiaoyao sect.
After discussions in the Shaolin Temple, Qiao Feng's master Xuan Ku succeeded him as abbot, and asked the Shaolin sect to appeal to the world not to conflict with Qiao Feng and Xiao Yuanshan because of their status as Khitans.
The former Shaolin's number one master, Xuan Cheng's martial arts recovered as before, and he made more breakthroughs than in the past. He also mastered the Yi Jin Jing Kung Fu. With three moves, he defeated the people from the Shenshan Mountain who wanted to cause trouble, which saved some for the Shaolin Temple. reputation.
The sweeping monk still lives near the Sutra Pavilion. Apart from curing Xuan Cheng, he has not shown any amazing skills and is almost unknown to outsiders.
Although the heroes saw him communicating with Xiaoyaozi that day, few people really thought that he was also an unparalleled master. They all thought so. If he was really a peerless master, the Shaolin sect is not a hidden sect. It must be hidden there and not known to the outside world.
After the sweeping monk broke through the realm, Zhao Qing competed with him again and won the battle. By the way, he asked him for some advice on the eighth consciousness.
The sweeping monk has entered the realm of "Arahantship" without a degree. The eighth consciousness is abandoned and stored, and the alaya consciousness is transformed into a different and familiar consciousness, and he can truly sense the existence of the eighth consciousness. ….
As a result, his understanding of reincarnation has been greatly deepened, and his ability to understand destiny, which was originally only a superficial level, has greatly improved, and the effect is far better than before, allowing others to experience some of the deep memories of previous lives.
However, Zhao Qing didn't want the sweeping monk to explore his memory, so he just asked for advice and asked the other party for relevant details.
Unknowingly, as the accumulation deepened, she developed a clear understanding. It took roughly an opportunity for her to initially cultivate the most superficial level of destiny.
In addition, Zhao Qing also conducted relevant experiments by passing on Duan Yu's "Shen Pediatric Meridian" to "resolve the poison in Duan Yu" that he had long promised.
As a yang-attributed poison, the Manggu Zhu Clam was refined into internal energy by the Divine Foot Meridian, and produced a total amount of yang-heat internal energy that exceeded the power of ordinary masters. The quality was extremely high and extremely pure.
Duan Yu tried to use the Beiming Divine Art to assimilate it. Due to his lack of realm, it took him half a day to dissolve a wisp of it and transform it into Beiming Qi.
By absorbing and analyzing it with Ming Yu Gong, Zhao Qing vaguely guessed the secret.
The most poisonous creatures in the world, such as the Mangu Clam and the Ice Silkworm, can be said to be the essence of heaven and earth with special attributes walking in the world. They are equivalent to the animal version of masters in the realm of harmony between man and nature.
Most of this kind of natural spiritual creature is not the result of reproduction, but happened to mutate from a large group of toads and silkworms. Its lifespan is far longer than that of its kind, and can live for decades or even hundreds of years.
Seeing that she was studying the poisonous power of Zhiyang, the sweeping monk also used his knowledge and told Zhao Qing that in the past hundreds of years, there have been several masters who used ice silkworms to cultivate the "Ice Silkworm Palm", but they turned poison into poison. The method whose quality is internal force is too inefficient, and the power it exerts is not very outstanding.
Obviously, Huijing should have obtained the method of catching ice silkworms from these people. He may also have the matching ice silkworm palm training method, but most of it must be assisted by a lot of medicinal materials. Before he could collect them, they were stolen by You Tanzhi. Gone is the ice silkworm.
After referring to the Zhiyang internal power generated by Manggu Zhuhu, Zhao Qing also had some relevant ideas on how to bring his Yang attribute internal power up to the level of Mingyu Gong.
At the same time, using the simulated internal force effect of the "Wanxiang Haoxu Gong" which is equivalent to the upgraded version of Xiao Wuxiang Gong, she can gradually simulate the toxicity of the Manggu Zhu Clam in her internal force after many analyzes.
Although it is slightly less toxic than the original version, it can be used as an auxiliary method. If it is integrated into the aura, it can turn a ten-foot radius into a poisonous gas field that will kill you if it touches it. It is extremely efficient when dealing with a large number of ordinary enemies.
The only limitation is that this Yang toxicity does not match the Mingyu Qi of Zhi Yin and Cold. The rate of simulated transformation is slow, and it will also affect the operation of one's own aura when facing opponents of the same level.
Speaking of which, after refining the poison in his body, Duan Yu's sword energy was almost as powerful as a monk. The sword energy contained the heat of the sun and was flammable when touched, which was equivalent to an upgraded version of the flame knife.
As long as he performs normally, he will have strength that is superior to ordinary top masters. It can be said that he is already the number one master of the Duan clan in Dali, comparable to the total strength of Tianlong Temple.
After staying in the Shaolin Temple for nearly two months, Zhao Qing had a premonition and knew that Xiaoyaozi would probably pass on what he had learned throughout his life before ascending. ….
At the same time, the growth rate of Tao seeds in the "Condensing Jade Technique" gradually slowed down, which made her realize that she should take more walks outside.
Therefore, Zhao Qing thought of the two places, Wuliang Mountain Jade Cave and Jueqing Valley, which have beautiful scenery, especially the latter, which also contains many excellent magic weapons, and may be able to find the remains of Dugu Qiubai in the past. Traces of this, and a little more understanding of this master in the realm of "unity of man and nature".
When she arrived at the Heartless Valley, she first picked some love flowers unique to the valley, and relied on the effects of the Divine Foot Meridian and Wanxiang Haoxu Gong to analyze and simulate the toxicity of the love flowers.
They are flowers with branches and leaves covered with small thorns. The color of the petals is extremely delicate. They are like roses and more fragrant, and like camellias for more beauty. According to legend, they are ancient exotic flowers from India. They are called "Manzhu Shahua" and were praised by Manjushri Bodhisattva. If it were transformed with great intelligence, it would have become extinct there.
According to the people in the Jueqing Valley, when a person has lustful thoughts, not only does his blood flow accelerate, but some unknown things are born in his blood. The poison on the love flower thorn is usually harmless to people, but when it encounters these things in the blood, it will immediately cause people unbearable pain.
According to this statement and Zhao Qing's experiments, the special toxicity of love flowers should be specifically targeted at certain types of hormones in the human body. The higher the concentration, the greater the damage.
Compared with the toxicity of the red clam, the simulated love flower poison is relatively useless, and it is difficult to have much effect in actual combat. Although it is strangely more difficult to suppress with internal force, it requires a small wound to have an effect.
However, this also brought some inspiration about martial arts to Zhao Qing. He discovered that with such special internal power, he seemed to be able to develop a complete system of martial arts targeting the seven emotions and six desires, a bit like the so-called magic sect.
In addition, Zhao Qing secretly borrowed the swords of gentlemen and ladies in the valley and a matching black sword from the "Dual Blades of Yin and Yang" passed down by the master of the valley, and gained a lot of golden energy.
Among them, the gentleman's lady's sword is made of a mixture of dark iron and cold iron, and the black sword is made of half fine iron and half dark iron and cold iron. Since the valley owners have passed it down from generation to generation, there are six strands of golden energy in total.
in obtaining
During the period of Jin Xing's Qi, Zhao Qing took the opportunity to explore the battlefield where the two sweeping monks had fought in the valley. However, the Jueqing Valley was a vast area, and after several days, there was still no harvest.
…
At night, Zhao Qing came to the west of Jueqing Valley. He looked up and saw a mountain peak rising into the sky. There was a high cliff in front of the peak, and a deep valley below. The peak was deep into the clouds and mist, with no end in sight.
After walking some distance further, we saw that the cliff was rugged with rocks and dense trees, but the mountain path was quite narrow and the surface was slippery. It was easy to slip and fall into the abyss. It was indeed a dangerous place.
Seeing the vines and vines on the mountain road, Zhao Qing was not disappointed. He pulled out a long sword from his waist and slashed it from a distance. In a flash of sword light, he cleared the area. Ten feet of vines and dead branches and grass.
At this moment, the clouds on the moon were blown away by the wind, and the moonlight was strong. The long sword in her hand emitted a rainbow-like halo, flickering, flowing, and wandering. It was fantastic and beautiful, and the god of observation was snatched by it. It's like a long rainbow appearing in an illusion, the color is bright and unparalleled.
This sword was originally Xiaoyaozi's sword in the past. The sword is inlaid with seven priceless rainbow jade. The warmth of the jade suppresses the coldness emitted by the cold iron material itself. ….
Later, the sword was passed on to Wu Yazi, who managed to embed it into the cliff and use it as a decorative object to indicate the direction outside the Wuliang Mountain Jade Cave. However, it was too wasteful and was taken out by Zhao Qing.
Because there were two masters with profound martial arts skills, Xiaoyaozi and Wuyazi, although they did not use the sword much, there were still as many as seven strands of golden energy contained in this rainbow lightsaber, which was more than enough. exceeded Zhao Qing's expectations.
In addition to obtaining the Qi of the Golden Element, when he fought against Xiaoyaozi more than two months ago, Zhao Qing wanted to find a handy sword that could be used when fighting against masters of the same level.
Although this sword is too gorgeous, its material and craftsmanship are better than the double swords of gentlemen and ladies collected in Jueqing Valley. They are top-grade among cold irons. They are not blunt swords that do not open an edge. They are much better in terms of lethality. When unsheathed, it's not noticeable.
Zhao Qing casually sheathed the sword and continued walking towards the cliff. He saw a cliff in the distance with the three characters "Broken Heart Cliff" engraved on it.
Each character is half a foot square, and seems to be carved with an extremely sharp weapon. Each stroke is almost half a foot deep into the mountain wall, and is six to seven feet above the ground. It cannot be climbed without the most expert.
From these three words up, the cliffs of the mountain peaks are dozens of feet bare and barren of grass. They are surrounded by clouds and mist, and the wind is so fierce that it is difficult for even birds to stop on the top of the mountain.
The cliff faces an abyss. Looking down from the mouth of the abyss, it is dark and bottomless. Under Zhao Qing's eyesight, which sees the night as day, it is also full of clouds and mist, blocking his sight.
Obviously, the cliff here is exactly where the little dragon girl jumped off the cliff in "The Legend of the Condor Heroes" more than a hundred years later.
Zhao Qing came under the three big characters, jumped up slightly, stretched out his palms to stick to the smooth stone wall, and inserted his fingers into the carvings of the characters, thinking deeply in his heart.
Under her induction, the carvings of these three words contained an extremely sharp sword intent. It seemed that it had gone through a long time, but it was still sharp. If it was in close contact, it would be enough to leave a mark on the body of an average expert. Injury that is difficult to heal.
I'm afraid it will take more than a hundred years for the sword intent in the carvings to gradually dissipate, which is somewhat similar to the spiritual imprint left by Xiaoyaozi in the Qibao Ring.
Could it be that the person who carved these three characters was Dugu Qiufei who came here back then?
Reaching out to sense the sword intent from decades ago, Zhao Qing had a vague feeling. In a trance, he seemed to see a majestic figure with earth-shattering divine power. He swung his sword light in the air and left his mark on the cliffs.
Although more than forty years had passed, she relied on the stronger sword intention in her soul and her profound swordsmanship. It only took her a moment to realize from the carvings one stroke after another. He has learned dozens of extremely profound sword techniques.
Each of them contains a part of Dugu Qiubai's swordsmanship. The sum of the dozen of them has made Zhao Qing very familiar with this figure he has never met in terms of spirit and martial arts, and he has become the person who knows him best in the world. One of several people.
talk
Say, what does the word "broken heart cliff" mean? Suggesting that heartbroken grass can be used as an antidote to love flowers?
Or is it that Dugu Qiubai, like his later descendants, also had an extraordinary emotional experience. After seeing the unique love flower here, he felt something in his heart, so he did it casually?
Zhao Qing thought secretly in his heart and tended to do both. He checked the surroundings and found that there were no other traces of sword intent nearby, nor had they been damaged by the sword energy or light.
After thinking about it, she looked again towards the dark abyss below. Without much hesitation, she jumped to the stone wall at the edge of the cliff, tested the smoothness and slope, and then slid down lightly.
Although the steepness of the valley here exceeds the vertical angle, it can be said that it is narrow at the top and wide at the bottom. Even a top master who specializes in Qing Gong cannot climb up. However, Zhao Qing's Ming Yu Gong at this time is The suction power has reached an extremely amazing level, but it can overcome this problem.
Otherwise, just dig a hole in the mountain wall to stay.
Soon, Zhao Qing arrived at the bottom of the Broken Heart Cliff. At the bottom of the valley was a large deep pool of clear water, surrounded by cliffs more than a hundred feet high, with no way to pass.
The big tree beside the pool has a strange shape and no name. When you raise your head, the clouds and fog cover the valley, making it difficult to see the sky.
But what particularly caught her attention was the faint cold air emanating from the depths of the pool, which contained a strange aura.
Stargazing is like a dusty dream
