It takes one thousand meritorious deeds to comprehend the [Chongning True Lord Talisman] method. This is not a problem at all for Chu Chen. His meritorious deeds are close to three thousand and he is fully qualified for enlightenment.
So, his little Yuanshen flew into the temple of the heart, sat cross-legged and meditated under the temple where the founder of the Sanqing Dynasty and all the gods stood, and understood the Dharma [Great mighty virtue, great wrath, great bravery, great incarnation, the great general who rules the heavens and the earth, and the demons]. Marshal's secret method].
An hour later.
"The talisman is still a little short of meaning, and I haven't been able to understand the true meaning." Chu Chen muttered to himself.
Just now, after some enlightenment, he understood the "Refining General" method to some extent, but he was only unable to learn the true meaning of the "talisman gall" of the "Chongning Zhenjun Talisman", and he was not able to fully understand it. master.
Fu Dan is also Fu Qiao.
As the saying goes, the great creation of heaven and earth is always in one orifice. If a person can know this orifice, all methods can always be accessed. If he does not know the talisman orifice, he will make ghosts and gods laugh; if he knows the talisman orifice, he will make ghosts and gods scream in surprise.
The talisman orifice is the most important part of the talisman.
Without mastering the "talisman key", even if the talisman is formed, the [Chongning Zhenjun Talisman] will not be effective and will not have the power it should have.
Speaking of which, this was one of the few secret techniques of the Heart Temple that he failed to comprehend immediately.
He is an enlightened person with extremely high understanding. In addition, the temple of the heart can help people "enlighten the Tao". He rarely encounters this situation.
However, he was not surprised at all.
Back when he went to Qingzhou City, the Shinto fellow who practiced [Guandi Divine General Technique] he met said that after cultivating the Divine General to the "highest level", if he wanted to improve, he would rely more on "enlightenment". There is no such thing as a shortcut to the end.
If you want to refine the exquisite magic and master the [Chongning True Lord Talisman], you must start from the Spring and Autumn period.
In recent years, Chu Chen has read "Spring and Autumn" frequently in his spare time, and often discussed Taoism with others, and his knowledge is quite solid.
"It seems that it depends on chance."
At the beginning, [Marshal Guan] became a top-level god because he accidentally spent his mana to train his soldiers and horses to reach heaven. By chance, he had an epiphany and understood the word "righteousness", and he suddenly became a top-level god.
Chu Chen sighed with emotion and did not continue to comprehend.
When it comes to cultivating immortality, the most important thing is "enlightenment". Sometimes, it is useless to be stubborn and stubborn.
Of course, these are not the point. The point is that there is news from Qingying in Damengzhenxiang, and he has to reply to the news.
Thanks to Chu Chen's accurate intelligence, according to Qingying, the Diyuan Chamber of Commerce was in good condition last night. Only a few small shops in remote cities were looted by passers-by, resulting in a loss of nearly 200,000 jade coins.
A mere two hundred thousand jade coins are insignificant to the current Diyuan Chamber of Commerce and are not considered a loss.
After years of development, the Diyuan Chamber of Commerce has become famous with the "Da Bu Yuan Dan". Using the Dan Shop as a spear, it has overcome obstacles and continued to expand. Now it has become one of the most famous chambers of commerce in the eight states in the southwest. There are nearly a thousand monks affiliated to the chamber of commerce. , with a cash flow of tens of millions of jade coins, and strong strength, it is already a considerable neutral force in the eight southwest states.
Speaking of which, the Ma family from Zhongzhou have recently entered the eight southwest states one after another. However, the development has not been smooth, there is a lot of resistance, and there have been many disputes with local forces, which is far less than the smooth sailing of the Diyuan Chamber of Commerce.
After all, Qingying has the Diyuan Longjun as her backer and the Golden Toad Ancestor to take care of her, so her development is much smoother.
"Erlang, how are you doing there? I heard that the two female lions from Demon Lion Mountain are seeking revenge on you. Are you injured?"
Qingying knew that Chu Chen possessed the art of clones, so she was not surprised to win one against two, but was worried that Chu Chen would be injured in the fight. "It doesn't matter to me, I suffered some flesh wounds, mainly because the mana consumption was a bit high."
"That's good." "Yeah!"
Although the Diyuan Chamber of Commerce did not suffer much loss, after all, the family has a big business now. After a turmoil, the things at hand were heavy. After learning that Chu Chen was fine, Qingying went to handle the errands of the Chamber of Commerce again.
Chu Chen was not idle either and rushed straight to Yuqin County to inspect the areas under his jurisdiction.
After a night of meditating and cultivating, the mana and spirit in his body returned to its peak, and his whole body was full of vigor and vigor.
Yun] was very fast on his feet and quickly arrived at the county town, where he met the county governor Wang Xi and Du Guan Ning.
When the two met Chu Chen, their attitudes had quietly changed significantly compared to a month ago.
Previously, Chu Chen had just taken office, and the two of them were respectful. However, they did not really regard Chu Chen as a "senior with great supernatural powers." Instead, they retained their previous inherent influence and felt that the gap between themselves and Chu Zhenshou was not that big. big.
Perhaps, they can catch up with an epiphany.
Especially the county governor Wang Xi. His son once called Chu Chen brothers. Three years ago, he was still referring to him as "Uncle Wang." How could his mentality change all of a sudden.
However, as Chu Chenli fought against the Green Snake Witch King, last night he defeated two great mid-level fourth-level magical powers with one against two, and he really saw the gap. To be honest, even if they had an epiphany, they would not be able to keep up with them.
Wang Xi felt sad in his heart, but with a smile on his face, he cupped his hands and said respectfully:
"Thanks to the great power of the Chu governor, he beheaded the enemy generals in the midst of thousands of troops.
As soon as the coach fell, the demons in our Yuqin County lost their backbone and fled in a hurry. The whole county suffered little loss..."
While talking, Wang Xi and Ning reported to Chu Chen the situation of the major cities in Yuqin County.
After hearing the reports from the two men, Chu Chen inspected Yuqin County again. Seeing that the situation was indeed not serious, he was very satisfied, and then went to Qingshi County and Yunxi County to inspect.
In fact, today, the Celestial Court of Heaven began to counterattack the demonic forces. Countless powerful men with great supernatural powers were dispatched, and another battle ensued.
However, Xianting did not announce his transfer, but ordered him to continue to guard the three counties of Yuqin, Qingshi, and Yunxi, to protect the living beings in order to prevent subsequent demonic forces from jumping over the wall.
Chu Chen was happy and free. After receiving the decree and touring various places, he returned to Xylophone City in the evening of that day.
Speaking of which, after returning to Xylophone City, Qi Xiuxin, Wang Xi, and Ning had similar reactions. They were all frightened by Chu Chen's strong performance last night, and their mentality changed slightly.
Yuqin Guards House.
As soon as Chu Chen came back, he went straight to the clean room, took a bath, burned incense, and practiced daily homework.
Maybe he smelled the spiritual fragrance, and the little ghost woke up quickly and floated out of the pure Yin treasure gourd.
Chu Chen laughed dumbly:
"Little devil, you finally came out."
"Brother, you are so unjust. I asked you for help, but you ignored me. I was beaten and smoking..."
The little kid's face was full of complaints. He touched his head and hands from time to time to show his senior brother that he was being taught a lesson by his master and looked pitiful.
"Senior brother, I got something by chance. I went into seclusion to study the Dharma. It's not a coincidence. Also, you deserve it this time. You are quite capable of asking Master to kneel down and kowtow for you. You are a cow and a horse."
The little devil's momentum weakened and he smiled sheepishly:
"I just thought to myself, who knew, my mouth is so fast, I said it all at once."
Chu Chen was speechless. It seemed that the little devil would have to be beaten next time. However, there is no way to do it. The more clever the fairy child is, the more innocent he is. It is his nature, and preaching cannot change it.
Chu Chen was too lazy to care.
Anyway, no one will take it to heart.
At that moment, he took out a Diyuan Dragon Palace tea jar from the Bracelet Immortal Mansion and untied the two talismans [Golden Light Talisman] and [Three Light Talisman] on the mouth of the jar.
A ray of bright divine light shot towards the roof.
Green smoke curled up, and then a miniature lioness appeared in front of Chu Chen.
It is the soul of Empress Liuqiao of Demon Lion Mountain.
From a mortal's point of view, Lady Liu was completely dead, but in the eyes of the monks, she was still alive.
As long as she uses the "Art of Soul Seizing Body", she can "resurrection from death". "Fellow Daoist Liu Qiao, what are your thoughts?"
He was very interested in the [Nine-Headed Jade Lion Tag] of Empress Furong, and guessed that the treasure was related to the nine-headed lion that was the immortal pet of Taiyi to save the suffering, so he asked Empress Liu Qiao about it.
Taiyi Ku Tianzun is also known as the Qinghua Emperor of the East Pole. He is the attendant of the Jade Emperor together with the Changsheng Emperor of the South Pole. He comes from the Qi of Shiqing.
, is an innate spirit, transformed by the Tao, with a compassionate heart, compassion for all living beings, and a vow to save all living beings, and has a high status in the Taoist sect. He was very interested in the treasure that was related to this great god's mount. As long as Empress Liu Qiao is willing to reveal something, he will not kill her true spirit and send her to the underworld to serve her sentence.
Empress Liu Qiao's soul appeared in the sky, her eyes were calm, and she said calmly: "There is no origin. My king was wandering in the void and was attracted by the blood of my lion clan. He came from the sky. It was an accidental acquisition. If you don't believe it, forget it."
Chu Chen nodded slightly. It was a coincidence. Sometimes it was so mysterious and mysterious. He was very experienced.
"It doesn't matter if I believe it, I will send you to the netherworld." Empress Liu Qiao looked surprised. She believed it so easily?
"You really don't kill my true spirit and send me to the underworld?" "This is natural."
Chu Chen nodded slightly:
"The Immortal Way values your life, reincarnation, and obeys the will of God. I will not kill your true spirit, but don't be happy. I will cast a spell to refine your spirit, strip away the original aura of your spirit, and leave a trace of your ghost to the underworld. It’s just torture, I killed you in vain, it’s too cheap for you, the living beings who died in your hands will complain about Pindao.”
The Lion Demon Mountain is a force that belongs to the Palace of Ten Thousand Beasts. This group of monsters from the Palace of Ten Thousand Beasts is the most violent and ferocious, and they are too numerous to describe. It would be easier for them to save them.
There are generally two types of so-called transcendence.
One is to help the ghost escape from the sufferings in hell and send her to another life. This is a good fortune for the ghost.
The other is "physical transcendence", which directly destroys the true spirit, eliminates all troubles in one fell swoop, and makes all the four elements empty.
It's a pity that Chu Chen doesn't intend to do any kind of "transcendence". He just wants to send her to the underworld to be tortured. Good deeds will be rewarded with good things, and evil deeds will be punished with evil consequences.
Back then in Guangping County, Qingzhou, Chu Chen and others admired Mr. Qingyun so much because he was willing to give up his own Taoism and practice to make up for the hundreds of thousands of people on behalf of the Qingyu Mountain God.
Otherwise, if Mr. Qingyun is a third-grade Taoist and is selfish, even if he goes to the underworld after death, his future will be extraordinary.
Mr. Qingyun is a truly responsible and upright scholar.
"Nvgan deceived the human race! You really have no good intentions!" Empress Liu Qiao sighed, with an angry look on her face.
For monks, if the true spirit is killed, it means complete death, but if the soul goes to the underworld, there is still a way to survive.
Of course, the so-called "path to life" is to enter the netherworld with cultivation, be able to withstand the torture of hell, and have the opportunity to be reincarnated.
Once she is deprived of her cultivation and becomes an ordinary ghost, with the consequences of her karma from practicing demonic skills, she enters the netherworld, where life is worse than death...
While he was talking, Chu Chen went straight to the alchemy room, started a fire in the furnace, and threw "Liu Qiao Empress Yuan Shen" into the alchemy furnace.
First, use the demonic fire of the East to refine the demonic evil energy of "Empress Liu Qiao's Yuan Shen", and then use the true fire of her life to run Ge Xianweng's [Tai Chi Internal Refining] secret method to refine it, stripping away the natural energy of her Yuan Shen little by little.
"Ah ah ah~ No, I won't go to the Netherworld. Fellow Daoist Chu, great master of Chu, you should kill me!"
"Immortals cherish life, but poor people are compassionate, so how can they kill easily." "Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh"
Fortunately, Chu Chen's alchemy furnace was tightly sealed, soundproofed, and separated from his spiritual consciousness. Otherwise, if Empress Liu Qiao's screams were spread out, I'm afraid it would damage the reputation of Master Chu Da.
About a day later.
Under the refinement of the [Tai Chi Internal Refining] Immortal Technique, Empress Liu Qiao's soul collapsed, leaving only a soul left behind.
As soon as the ghost door opened, he directly sent its ghost into the netherworld with extremely skillful movements.
For a moment, in the alchemy room, the green pine alchemy furnace was filled with bright light and energy.
The soul is the essence of a monk.
Chu Chen did not waste any time, and took out another empty Yuanlong Palace tea can, taking away the dense energy of the lion demon's origin and sealing it up.
I have to say that Long Jun’s personal tea can is very easy to use, has many uses, and is also beautiful in appearance.
The monster with great supernatural powers is full of treasures.
In addition to the original energy of the lion spirit, Chu Chen also obtained her corpse.
Its lion bones, lion blood, and lion hair are all of top quality.
Materials and materials treasures are among the "rare treasures". They can be sold at a high price at the Diyuan Chamber of Commerce.
Of course, Chu Chen didn't plan to sell it. Instead, he planned to take the lion's blood, lion bones and the energy of the lion's soul to refine a spiritual elixir that would replenish energy, strengthen the spirit, strengthen the foundation, and enhance cultivation [Sacred Lion] Dan].
The elixir for improving cultivation is extremely precious and cannot be refined by ordinary alchemists.
The high-level essence-strengthening elixir is even more precious.
However, over the years, as his Taoist practice improved and his attainments in alchemy also increased, the art of alchemy underwent a qualitative change invisibly and reached a new level.
Many times, he didn't need any prescriptions, so he just improvised the medicinal materials and got them at his fingertips.
This [Sacred Lion Pill] was the name he gave randomly.
As long as he has the right spiritual materials, he can refine elixirs that enhance his cultivation.
However, spiritual materials that can strengthen one's roots and improve one's abilities are extremely rare. Once such magical herbs are available on the market, they will be quickly sold out regardless of their age.
After entering the realm of great supernatural powers, Chu Chen needs elixirs that are at least a thousand years old and are even rarer. The Diyuan Chamber of Commerce has not received a copy of such immortal grass elixirs so far. There are low-level elixirs, but unfortunately they are of no use to him.
Of course, there is one main ingredient of the essence-strengthening elixir that is relatively easy to obtain - hunting monsters.
Monsters will resist, and when they are about to die, they will lose their cultivation or even self-destruct. The success rate of collecting herbs and making elixirs is also very low, which requires extremely strong strength and a certain amount of luck.
However, overall, this is a good way to obtain the elixir of strengthening the foundation and cultivating the vitality.
Many human chambers of commerce and alchemists are very keen on killing monsters and beasts to make alchemy.
However, Chu Chen never took the initiative to hunt monsters and refine pills.
First, if you use monsters and other sentient beings to make elixirs, the "erysipelas" is very serious, so it is not advisable to take too much;
Secondly, it is the teachings of Master Xu Ping and Master Huolong Alchemy.
Both masters warned him several times not to take the initiative to kill demons and make elixirs, as it would be easy for him to become "obsessed" and fall into evil heretics. Only by chance and chance could he kill demons and make elixirs.
Chu Chen deeply believed this and never broke the precept.
This time, the powerful lion spirit from Lion Demon Mountain came to his door and happened to successfully collect the "big medicine", so he naturally accepted it with a smile.
Two days later.
After deducing the elixir method, Chu Chen roughly researched the "Sacred Lion Elixir Formula".
Immediately, he took out the Dream Stone and contacted Qingying, asking her to help purchase the auxiliary medicine for refining the [Sacred Lion Pill].
Chu Chen stretched out and was about to go out when a flash of light flashed from the [Prefecture Deputy Capital Control Order] on his waist.
Immediately, his consciousness sank, and it was a message from the Governor of Taihe.
"There are parliaments in the eight southwest states again. It seems that the dust of the evil disaster has settled, and the reward from the heavenly court has arrived."
Chu Chen murmured to himself.
