Feng Zixu's fingertips lit up with a little starlight, and drew a bright lightning bolt in the sky, which seemed to contain endless changes.
In the lightning room, Qi Jingzhi's eyes were dazzled by just one glance. He didn't even think of evading, but his eyebrows were pointed, and he immediately stood there as if he had lost his soul.
"Huh?"
Feng Zixu stared at the red ghost mask that suddenly appeared on his disciple's face, and said curiously: "There are quite a few bits and pieces on him!"
She could see clearly just now that only half of the starlight on her fingertips had penetrated into Qi Jingzhi's eyebrows, and the rest was swallowed up by this ghostly face that looked like haze.
Seeing the bright starlight glowing all over the red ghost's face armor, Feng Zixu sensed it briefly and figured out most of the function of this object. She couldn't help but raised her eyebrows and said angrily: "It's really a small tree that can't stand up until it's cultivated! This little He'er is so thoughtful that he even has to be wary of a kind-hearted master like me!"
"But it's good this way. At least I won't suffer a loss easily, and I won't have to worry about it all the time."
As the Xuandu Temple Master spoke, the corners of his mouth were slightly raised, and his brows and eyes were full of cunning, which really meant that he had nothing to do with the word kindness.
Within the red ghost's mask, a mountain with three peaks rises from the ground, its brilliance is brilliant and brilliant like smoke.
On the tallest Xiyi Peak, Qi Jingzhi stood in front of the stone tablet inscribed with the words "The heart shakes like a dancing crane, and the bones rise like a flying dragon", closing his eyes and concentrating, half asleep and half awake.
"The immortal feather is a crane. A crane is a yang bird, and it swims in yin. Because of the golden energy, it rides on the fire essence to support itself..."
The general outline of the "Immortal Feather Sutra" echoes among the three peaks of this mountain for a long time.
Only now did Qi Jingzhi truly understand the true meaning of this verse and understand why Xianyu Mountain is most famous for the Honglu Dinghuo Sword Intent.
There was nothing that could be done about it. At the beginning, Lu Yunzi had only a little knowledge and could not achieve any great success. When he arrived at Qi Jingzhi's place, he did not even have a master and could only practice and prove himself.
Along the way, he had seen many kinds of spirits, among which wood spirits and gold spirits were the most common, but he had never encountered a real fire spirit.
The blood flame of the Yin evil wind mother is not the fire of the five elements, but the greed of the human heart and the resentment of the evil spirit. The golden rooster with a golden candle on its head and splashing lights is the golden essence.
Even for monk Yiren whose foundation is fire, Qi Jingzhi has only seen one Jinyun envoy Dong Mao from Wuyun Division. The others, even Zhu Yihou, who has red beard and hair and raises fire to burn the sky, are still wood but not fire at their roots.
As for the fact that he first understood some of the charm of "The Flying Dragon Calls the Rain", and then listened to Mu Yingxian's song "The Wind in the Pines", and unexpectedly discovered the aura of pines, cypresses, armored wood that fit perfectly with him, then it was truly a fateful meeting. , it is determined by God.
"The combination of strength and softness calms the mind!"
The young man's lips moved, and bits of starlight continued to separate from his body, flying upwards and blending into the bright starry river that suddenly appeared in the sky.
This galaxy looks quite magical, with red gold in the middle, winding through the sky, and countless stars inside that flicker and flicker like candles.
The next moment, the galaxy rolled back, collapsed inward, and in an instant, it condensed into a beautiful woman wearing colorful clothes, dancing in the air, and landed gracefully on the top of Xiwing Peak.
Feng Zixu ignored Qi Jingzhi, and turned her eyes. She glanced at the stone tablet first, and then looked at the three hazy peaks at her feet. She saw that the cliffs and stone walls were vertical and high, as if they were being cut with an ax or a chisel, with a faint murderous aura.
Immediately, the Xuandu Temple Master was attracted by the young figure on the three crane peaks.
Practice boxing under the moon, fly up a tree, fight against villains, subjugate a tiger with one sword, chop off the head of a black donkey, nail the body of a white snake...
One after another, this young man was filled with murderous intent and his heart was as hard as iron most of the time.
Feng Zixu read these experiences and thoughts of Qi Jingzhi one by one, and couldn't help but chuckle: "He really is a murderer full of evil intentions, but he has too many rules in his heart, and his nature is restrained."
"I can't help but help you to help you split the jade cage and fly the colorful phoenix, open the golden lock and drive away the dragon, so that the world can see the true color of our little crane!"
After saying that, the Xuandu Temple Master reached out and flicked his hand, and an extremely long picture scroll appeared in front of them. It was filled with cranes and long beaks.
They are tall, hairy and sparsely fleshed, with turtle backs, soft-shell turtle bellies, slender toes, and phoenix-winged sparrows. There are nearly a hundred of them in the forest.
Among the nearly a hundred cranes, most of them are frost cranes with red crowns, white feathers and black tails. The rest are of various colors. Among them, the majority are blue cranes, followed by flaming cranes, and yellow cranes and black cranes again. Of.
These cranes gather or disperse, dance or stay, play in the clear stream, soar in the clouds, fly and peck at food, or spread their wings and groom themselves. They are all lifelike and wonderful.
Where the cranes live, flowers are blooming, pine trees are strong, water is rushing, lake rocks are towering, the cranes are in harmony, and the scene is harmonious.
The entire painting is characterized by concise brushwork, bright colors, precision, subtlety, and flexibility.
There is an inscription at the front of the volume, which reads "Dancing Crane Picture" in three seal characters. There is a postscript at the back of the volume, which is a poem. .br>
"The fetus transforms into an immortal quality, and the long-lasting sound is in Jiugao. When emptied, the sound is clear, and the frosty hair reflects the sun."
"Thousands of miles away, I have only a few outlines, and thousands of mountains look at the lush pottery. The fragrance is condensed and the light disappears, but the wind accumulates and the charm becomes higher."
"How far can the phoenix couple climb? The chickens are suddenly tired of thinking. When they ascend to the sky, they fly out of the basil."
Feng Zixu turned her head and smiled at Qi Jingzhi who had opened her eyes at some point: "If you want to move forward steadily, the foundation is the most important, and you must solidify it step by step."
"Let's talk about this state of destiny first. I still owe you the idea of Dancing Crane as my teacher, and now I'll give it to you. This scroll is extremely important. Don't be arrogant because you think you've already achieved it."
Hearing this, Qi Jingzhi's face showed surprise.
Just now, he thought that the "Dancing Crane Picture" was something similar to the "Chi Tiger Fish Picture" of the Cui family in Yecheng. Unexpectedly, it turned out to be the incomplete inner refining method of the "Immortal Feather Sutra". This was far more complicated than a sentence. "The heart shakes like a dancing crane, and the bones emerge like a flying dragon" is much more vivid.
Thinking of this, the young man nodded silently and scanned the "Dancing Crane Picture". He was quickly attracted to the largest flying crane in the center with beautiful green feathers all over its body.
Looking at the nearly a hundred cranes in the entire painting, this green crane is the most lively and eye-catching, especially with a pair of red eyes, which not only adds a bit of beauty and mystery, but also reveals a cunning and intelligent light, which makes Qi Jingzhi very excited. It feels familiar.
Feng Zixu turned to look at her disciple, with a smile on her face, and asked unconsciously: "Is this blue-feathered and red-eyed crane good-looking?"
Qi Jingzhi suddenly felt his scalp tightening and immediately nodded his head without hesitation: "At first glance, my disciple didn't realize that this was a crane. He thought it was a phoenix bird Qingluan mixed in among the cranes. !」
"You little crane do have some eyesight!"
Feng Zixu felt quite satisfied when he heard this, and the smile on his face became even brighter: "Not long ago, you touched the threshold of your heart and soul. Under the influence of your spirituality, your name and surname appeared on the crane-releasing stele in the Crane Zhao Pavilion in Xianyu Mountain."
"When I was surprised, I remembered that an ancestor once lived in seclusion in Qi State and left behind an introductory inheritance, so I casually gave you permission to practice."
"I originally thought that even if you had "Dancing Crane Picture" in hand, success would not happen overnight. If you didn't, it would be just a few years of hard work for you to see how it turned out, so I didn't rush to pick it up. lead."
"Unexpectedly, my master just took a nap, and you broke through without even saying hello. It's really surprising!"
As he spoke, the smile on Feng Zixu's face gradually faded, and the look he looked at his disciple became even more unkind, as if he was looking at a small, straight tree.
Seeing this, Qi Jingzhi was quite dumbfounded. He had been left alone so far, and could only fumble around cautiously, but he did not feel aggrieved, let alone complain. Who would have thought that this master would actually slap him down and find fault with his disciple? .
However, seeing Feng Zixu's glaring eyes, the young man had no choice but to nod his head and said: "My disciple is reckless and ignorant, so I have to worry about Master."
"It's good to know!"
The master of Xuandu Temple snorted lightly, and his tone became cheerful again: "This scroll looks ordinary, but in fact it is the true scripture passed down from generation to generation in Xianyu Mountain."
"To complete the foundation of the Zhuang Destiny Realm, the first step is to visualize the picture drawn by Master in his mind, and the second step is to integrate his heart and soul of the Angry Crane into the cranes. .”
"Xiao He'er, remember, before completing these two steps, never
Xu Xian changes his mind! "
Seeing that his master was rarely serious for a moment, Qi Jingzhi's expression immediately became solemn and he solemnly replied: "My disciple, I have written it down!"
Seeing this, Feng Zixu suddenly stretched out a hand, pinched the young man's cheek and pulled hard: "You are not very old, you are covered with young feathers. It is the time when you are full of vitality, don't worry about it. He is dressed up like an old man who is half buried in the earth, which makes people feel disgusted just by looking at him!"
Qi Jingzhi had only had Master Meng as his teacher before, and had learned a lot of sage principles. He never forgot to reflect on his own name, and he always practiced it throughout his journey. He almost had the words "respect and sincerity" engraved on his face. Today I worshiped this Xuandu Temple Master as my teacher, and I really met my nemesis.
Feng Zixu pulled away the corner of the young man's mouth and pulled it upward, as if trying to force a smile on the young man's face.
Qi Jingzhi knew that he was unable to resist, and he respected his master in his heart, so he could only cooperate honestly.
Unexpectedly, the master of Xuandu Temple immediately dropped his hand and said in disgust: "Forget it, it's really uglier than crying!"
She waved her hand, stopped teasing the little apprentice, and ordered with a smile: "Originally, my master wanted to imprint this "Dancing Crane Picture" directly in your heart, so that you can save the first step of hard work. However, you had the intention of being on guard as a teacher before. Although it is understandable, you can no longer think of me communicating with you from heart to heart again!"
Feng Zixu said and looked around: "This mask is a bit extraordinary. You should retreat here immediately. When the visualization is successful, we will talk about other things."
This is the serious command of the teacher. Qi Jingzhi wanted to accept the promise solemnly, but he remembered the lesson just now and just nodded lightly.
Feng Zixu nodded towards his disciple, and immediately rose into the sky, forming the mysterious galaxy hanging high in the sky.
Qi Jingzhi breathed out gently, looked away from the sky, and fixedly looked at the "Dancing Crane Picture" in front of him.
I have to say that today he has received the inheritance of Zhengfa, the blessing of the sect, and a master who teaches and gives guidance. This feeling is really good, even though this master is quite... unscrupulous, independent, and especially likes to bully his disciples. , but he is indeed a kind-hearted person, and he is an easy person to get along with.
This young man from the mountains who was raised by his grandpa has never felt such love and warmth before, and he is really flattered.
Feng Zixu withdrew her fingers from Qi Jingzhi's eyebrows and no longer paid attention to the disciple who was studying in seclusion. Instead, she turned to look at Ban Nu who was shrinking aside, with an interesting look in her eyes: "Is this coward of yours a horse or something?" Tiger?"
Bannu immediately neighed like a horse, with a flattering look on his face.
The corners of Feng Zixu's lips curled up slightly: "Okay, I'm more discerning than your master! It's just that you two have the same problem of not being honest!"
After saying that, she suddenly let out a light scold, and the Cai Lian on her right arm immediately flew out and slashed towards the horse's neck of the black and white tiger-striped beast.
Bannu immediately let out a low roar, and clear light rose up all over its body, and a small flag appeared in front of it. The flag was spread out in the wind, revealing a tiger-shaped beast with white fur and a long tail, and a colorful body.
The Cai Lian's strange-shaped sword suddenly slowed down when illuminated by the clear light of Zuowu Banner, becoming light and soft, no longer sharp or sharp at all.
Soon after that, one end of Cai Lian had already touched the top of the Zuowu flag, making a small muffled sound.
The Zuowu flag was intact, but it was raised back with some unbearable force and got stuck on Bannu's face.
"Zouwu Banner? Is there really such a thing in this world that can only be beaten without fighting back?"
Feng Zixu's tone was filled with surprise. Although the blow just now was just casual, not everyone could receive it without any damage.
A strange light bloomed in the eyes of the Xuandu Temple Master. He immediately raised his hand, pointed his sword upward, and drew a circle in the air. The colorfully trained strange-shaped sword immediately changed the slashing strike into a binding, and tied Bannu and Zuowu Banner together. Encircled in it.
For a time, among the waves of the East China Sea and above the clear sky, the roar of tigers and horses could be heard endlessly, which sounded very miserable. Occasionally, there was also the sound of women's laughter mixed in, but it was quite clear and sweet, full of joy.
I don't know how long it took, but Qi Jingzhi suddenly opened his eyes, his eyes filled with a bright light.
"Hey, it's done so soon?" Feng Zixu's voice came next.
Qi Jingzhi came to his senses and was about to answer when he suddenly felt something strange about his body, which was quite awkward and heavy.
He quickly looked down and found that he, including Ban Nu, were all tied up tightly by his master's colorful and strange-shaped swords.
Qi Jingzhi and Ban Nu's eyes met, and they could see the joy of surviving a desperate situation.
The young man's heart suddenly flashed back to the previous tragic scene of Langya Lord being torn apart. He quickly looked at Feng Zixu and replied: "My disciple has seen the appearance of ordinary cranes since he was a child in the mountains. After studying the "Immortal Feather Sutra", he followed the general outline I have been constantly visualizing the descriptions in it, and now that I have the "Dancing Crane Picture" given by Master as a reference, it has been extremely smooth, and I have already initially sketched a picture in my mind."
"It's just that the cranes next to me are okay, but the master's crane with blue feathers and red eyes is too mysterious and magical. I can't understand the essence of it for a while. I'm afraid it will take some time."
Hearing this, Temple Master Xuandu laughed again.
Immediately afterwards, I saw a wooden raft flying out of the waves, riding on the clouds for nine days, with the blue oar swaying gently, the cloud sails swaying, flying over the mountains and across the sea, and suddenly disappeared into the distance.
