On the way back, You Ziji became more and more puzzled.
"Second Senior Brother, why do Senior Uncle Hao and Fifth Senior Sister want the Samadhi True Fire? Mysterious realm monsters can be generated. Logically speaking, their strength can be obtained easily."
Gu Xuan explained patiently: "Samadhi True Fire is indeed not a rare thing, but it is extraordinary when it appears in humans.
The history of exchanges between humans and monsters lasts for tens of thousands of years, and they have been fighting each other for thousands of years. It was not until the establishment of Tianfu that they integrated the power of monks to defeat the already weak monster forces and drove them to Jiaozhou. The south became a demon country.
Monsters are born from the heaven and the earth. No matter what species they are, as long as they become spirits, they are regarded as spirits of all things like humans. They cannot be wiped out in any case. Therefore, we made a three-part agreement with the monsters to help them establish a stable monster kingdom and control all parts of the world. The spirits gathered in one place and gave them space to live, thus maintaining peace for hundreds of years.
Our Xuan Ming Dao is one of the six major sects in the world, second only to the Three Prefectures. Naturally, we have to set an example. We can neither capture monsters to study, nor should we cultivate monsters on our own. Therefore, there are indeed some shortcomings in the aspect of Samadhi True Fire.
Of course, junior brother's Samadhi True Fire is really pure and rare among monsters, so it is of great value for exploration. "
You Ziji understood a little more and sighed: "Even for sects like the Six Major Sects, even if they do things with good intentions, they will be bound by rules."
"Junior brother, you can think of this. It seems that you have thought it through. This is the quality that a cultivator should have." Gu Xuan first praised You Ziji, and then his tone became serious, "But your statement is very dangerous. If not The rules are to do things according to your own preferences. How is that different from the devil?
Without these rules and regulations to regulate your behavior, how would you know whether what you are doing is really the right thing to do, rather than doing bad things with good intentions.
There are naturally many rules in this world, and there are also many unreasonable things, but they cannot be eliminated. If there are disadvantages, we should change them instead of completely denying them.
Junior brother, you are talented and intelligent, but you are also prone to arrogance. Remember to discipline yourself in the way of a saint at all times to avoid falling into the wrong path. "
"Junior brother, please keep this in mind."
For the first time, You Ziji's feelings towards Gu Xuan changed. His teaching method was different from that of his senior brother Chang Yunbai. He was more straightforward, so he seemed much stricter, but it really made You Ziji feel true love and care. It's not like Qin Shuyun and Hao Lianfeng who ignored You Ziji's will.
After three days, You Ziji finally returned to the foot of Tiangui Peak Mountain. I thought that a lot of dust had fallen in my thatched house, but I didn't expect it to be very clean. It seemed that someone had been cleaning it frequently. Even the thatch on the beams had become several layers thicker. You Ziji looked at Gu Xuan with confusion.
"Junior brother Ji and Xiaogui did it for you."
"It's really troublesome for them." You Ziji was very grateful and wanted to thank him in person.
Gu Xuan didn't think so. As a senior brother, Ji Wenyi was still very incompetent. "What's the trouble? This is what they should do. We Xuanming Dao disciples always lead one by one before becoming a disciple. You, senior brother Ji, started before you. Naturally, he will take care of you. If you have a junior brother in the future, you should also take care of him in the same way. As for Xiaogui, his realm is too low. More work will also help his cultivation. "
Then he changed the subject and asked again: "Have you missed any homework at Danyang Peak these past two days?"
You Ziji was clearly arranged by Fifth Senior Sister Qin Shuyun, so he had no time to practice, so he said truthfully: "No, I just looked at the alchemy notes and some pill knowledge given to me by Fifth Senior Sister, and learned how to make elixirs."
"That's not considered wasteful." Gu Xuan looked at You Ziji and seemed to have something to say, "Junior brother, are you wondering why I don't want you to become their disciple?"
You Ziji nodded. He did have some doubts. It seemed that alchemy and weapon refining were also a good option.
Gu Xuanyu explained earnestly: "If you can learn alchemy and weapon refining, I will not stop you, but you cannot go to Danyang and Chihuo Peaks to become apprentices."
You Ziji wondered: "Will it delay cultivation?" He remembered that in the secular world, apprentices need to do odd jobs for three or two years, help on the side for three or two years, and work instead for three or two years. How much they can learn depends on their intelligence, and even how big they are. Some of them were learned secretly, and the master didn't teach them at all. If this goes on for ten years, if this material is not available, the good youth will be wasted, and it will be too late to change careers.
Gu Xuan shook his head, "It's not a matter of delaying your cultivation. The elders accept disciples just because they want someone to pass on their mantle, so they will urge you to practice. It's just that, little junior brother, you have a special physique and cannot fight with others with the help of external forces. When the time comes, you will be in Chi You can’t use any of the magic weapons that Huo Feng has worked so hard to refine, and you can’t use Danyang Peak’s unique elixir. How will you fight the enemy once you get off the mountain? So you need to find a suitable master to reasonably improve your combat effectiveness and refine elixirs. If you are interested in the art of weapon refining and have plenty of time, it is never too late to learn it."
You Ziji thought about it carefully and said, "Second senior brother, does he know that the teacher's skills are suitable for me to learn from?"
Gu Xuan sighed softly, "Your situation is very rare and needs to be discussed with the elders in the sect. You should lay the foundation first. If you have any questions, go directly to Junior Brother Ji to discuss it. If he can't do it, you can come to me."
He stretched out his hand and said: "Give me your feather fan. Since Master Hao is in trouble, you can't do it without paying a price, so let him enlighten this feather fan. Maybe you can use it."
You Ziji didn't hesitate, and naturally he couldn't let it go if it was beneficial.
…
After Gu Xuan left, You Ziji found the Taiqing secret book that he had compiled before in the house and continued to practice. In the past three days, I have been doing alchemy and reading, and I have not exercised. The insights gained from reading the secret books are also a bit unfamiliar.
After You Ziji looked at the combing again, he continued to practice in the yard.
His palm skills are becoming more and more weird and unpredictable, and his skills have reached the limit. The increase in power is actually due to the use of true energy. The air-splitting palm attacks continuously, breaking through the waves and emptying the air. The power is much stronger than before, but once it is compared with Master Hao, , Second Senior Brother wanted to compare, but it was really unsightly.
What he had seen in the past two days was beyond his imagination, making him unable to calm down. He also remembered that in Tianhai Lake, Commander Ren who used Jin Palm was already powerful in the Xuan Realm, but due to an unexpected combination of circumstances, he was killed by Ling Yue Yue Hua Shang took his life because this person did not have the magic weapon and armor at his disposal.
Think again about Liu Sanshi, who was born in Qizhou, who used the magic weapon to force him, Ling Qing, and Ling Yue to the end. In addition to his own mysterious and profound skills, didn't he also borrow the benefit of the magic weapon?
Not to mention the monks of Tianyu Temple, they have a feather fan in each hand.
The more You Ziji thought about it, the more frustrated he became, but he couldn't use the magic weapon, and his palm skills became more and more indulgent. He had no rules and was just venting his emotions.
After a long time, his energy was finally exhausted. Although the real fire furnace tried its best to restore his true energy, it was only a drop in the bucket. Who said he couldn't use spiritual energy now.
Suddenly, You Ziji remembered something, reached into his arms, and took out two bottles of pills.
One bottle is Xuanwu Dan that the four people from Danyang Peak worked together to refine. It is used to enhance the essence of the body. Senior Brother Zou Shun selected four of the best quality for him. You Ziji can’t use it yet. The other bottle is The Qi Restoration Pills he refined at Danyang Peak were all good ones selected by Qin Shuyun for him to use. If he couldn't use the spiritual energy to recover quickly, he would have to take medicine.
You Ziji found a shady place, poured two pills from the porcelain bottle into his hand, and put them both in his mouth. He didn't know how much he needed each time, so he only swallowed one pill first and kept the remaining one under his tongue.
The elixir entered the abdomen, and a pungent air filled the esophagus. Perhaps his alchemy technique was not perfect enough, and the fire energy of Samadhi True Fire entered the elixir through the Shadowless Pocket, causing a burning sensation.
Fortunately, he is best at dealing with flames, and this burning is not even as irritating as a chili pepper.
The elixir enters the abdomen, but before it reaches the dantian, the true fire furnace located here can't wait to stretch out its tongue of fire and suck the elixir into it. It rolls up and down in the samadhi true fire, slowly shrinks, and finally disappears. You Ziji was greatly shocked. Could it be that he couldn't even use the elixir?
Fortunately, at the next moment, a strong burst of true energy dispelled his thoughts.
True Qi gushes out from the true fire furnace and rushes towards his limbs and bones to replenish his consumption. The amount of infuriating energy is equivalent to less than half of You Ziji's reserves. Of course, this is related to You Ziji's alchemy strength. The medicinal power of the Qi Restoration Pill did not reach a perfect balance during refining, and a lot of medicinal power was lost. In other words, if this pill is used to its limit, at least two pills will be needed to fully replenish the true energy of a Foundation Establishment monk.
You Ziji did not hesitate to bite the remaining Qi-Reviving Pill under his tongue and swallowed it, and his true Qi surged again. He followed the basic exercises for two weeks and absorbed all the energy for his own use.
The light in his eyes soared, and most of his true energy was restored. He basically regained his fighting strength, and his heart suddenly became enlightened.
"Although I cannot use magic weapons and am not powerful enough, if I have the help of elixirs, I may not be invincible after a long fight with others."
You Ziji was in a happy mood, and the gloom was gone. He poured out the elixirs from the porcelain bottle and looked at them. He saw that there were thirteen elixirs left in it, which was obviously not enough. Fortunately, he has learned how to refine the Huiyuan Pill and only needs to solve the source of the herbs.
"When I see Senior Brother Ji tomorrow, I'll ask where I can get the medicine."
In addition to the elixir, You Ziji thought of the "talisman" again, and sighed in his heart that the elder brother's foresight, combined with the power of the elixir, was such that he was ready for both offense and defense.
You Ziji took out the yellow paper and drew a few drawings with his fingertips. Unfortunately, he had not practiced for many days and his technique was a bit rusty, so he could not be perfect.
He was unwilling to do this, so he sat on the stone bench and wrote furiously, forgetting food and sleep, to carve out amulets. One talisman after another, his movements became faster and faster. However, he couldn't keep up with the speed by gathering the spiritual energy in the air. A half-painted talisman was about to be scrapped. A little spiritual energy suddenly burst out from the true fire furnace. It bursts out along the meridians. You Ziji didn't stop for a moment and completed the remaining strokes of the talisman smoothly.
The talisman exudes a dazzling spiritual light, which is obviously extraordinary.
