The next morning.
Chu Liang got up early, feeling refreshed, and finished washing up slowly.
After walking through the misty valley with those people from the Demon Cult for so long, looking at the flowers, plants and trees on the Shu Mountain now, it feels like I have returned to the earth, which is extremely friendly.
The golden berries swaying in the small flowerbed are also cute, the little fish busy watering there are also cute, and the golden retriever digging holes next to it is also... forget it has a big head.
The more I look at it, the more stupid I get.
After breakfast, he rushed to Tongtian Peak Chuanjian Hall to find Wen Yulong.
After killing Jie Yin on the South Road, I got a statue with a storage space, and all the treasures of Jie Yin should be inside. But Chu Liang couldn't open the storage artifact, so he had no choice but to seek help from professionals.
"Senior Brother Chu, I've been waiting for you for a long time!" In the sword-passing hall, the young man sat there full of energy.
"Junior brother Lao Wen is worried about him." Chu Liang responded with a smile.
"What good things did you get back when you went out this time?" Wen Yulong asked impatiently.
Now he may have developed a conditioned reflex. Every time Chu Liang comes back from doing errands, he will be given a chance to show off his talent.
In fact, Chu Liang has also developed a habit. Although hearing Yulong always makes him unexpected, he always says "it smells really good" at the end.
Extreme flight, flying leaf sword, zongzi form, treasure leaf lamp, divine light ghost-slaying sword, lamp ball swordsmanship...
If it were those ordinary weapon-refining disciples, it might be in line with one's imagination, but it would definitely not be possible to use the same materials to produce the same powerful effect.
In other words, mediocrity.
"There's nothing to refine this time, it's something else." Chu Liang sat down and took out the sinister statue. "I seized such a statue with storage, but I can't open it. Is there any way you can open it?"
"Let me see."
Wen Yulong took the statue and looked at it carefully for a while, his brows becoming increasingly serious.
After a long while, he put the statue on the table and said hesitantly: "Senior Brother Chu, this is a bad Ksitigarbha."
"Oh?" Chu Liang raised his eyes.
He had heard a little about the so-called "Evil Ksitigarbha".
There is a legend in Buddhism about Ksitigarbha Bodhisattva. He is a good Bodhisattva who made a great wish: "I will never become a Buddha until hell is empty." But the Pluto Sect in this world also has beliefs about Ksitigarbha, but they believe in "evil Ksitigarbha".
In the legend of the Pluto Sect, Ksitigarbha is an evil god who was suppressed in hell by the hypocritical gods. He is bound in the land of the netherworld by 380 million chains blessed by divine power. Thousands of evil ghosts are there every day. Even if it gnaws at its body, it remains immortal and never wants to return to the human world. Those who believe in it believe that Ksitigarbha will one day transform into an evil ghost and return for revenge.
But he didn't understand exactly what this evil Ksitigarbha looked like or what it said.
"In the Pluto Sect, there is a demonic artifact that is the tenth in the Ten Thousand Treasures Record, the True Body of Ksitigarbha. It is said that this object can summon the real Ksitigarbha divine power from the netherworld. I don't know whether it is true or not." Wen Yulong said: "You captured it. This statue should be an imitation of Ksitigarbha’s true body, with some kind of guiding power.”
"I doubt that the legendary evil Ksitigarbha can lock it."
This is a bit scary.
Chu Liang leaned forward and yawned, "Then wouldn't it be dangerous to hold this thing in your hand?"
"If I guess correctly, the power of this thing should be that it can be used to summon part of Ksitigarbha's divine power." Wen Yulong said: "But it won't be too exaggerated, and it won't attract evil spirits if you hold it in your hand. However, After the contents are taken out, I still advise you to get rid of it."
"Does this mean you can take it out?" Chu Liang asked after hearing this.
"It will be a little troublesome, but it should be possible." Wen Yulong said with a smile, "Put it here for a while and I will study it for a while. When it is about to be opened, I will notify you to come over and open it in front of you."
Chu Liang knew that the reason why he opened it in front of him was to avoid suspicion that he had stolen the treasure inside. In the world of cultivating immortals, there used to be people who opened storage magic weapons on behalf of others. This is considered an industry practice.
Although he didn't doubt that Wen Yulong would steal it, since there was this rule, there was no need for him to disobey it.
"Okay, thank you very much," he said.
"You're welcome. I want two hundred sword coins for this order." Wen Yulong held out two fingers.
"What?" Chu Liang frowned, "This should be easier than refining a magic weapon, right? It also costs this much?"
"Hehe." Wen Yulong said: "This kind of work is usually based on the value of the stored magic weapon. You are a big guy like this evil Ksitigarbha. Although I don't know which demon cultivator you seized it from. , but the level is definitely not low, and the treasure inside is definitely worth the price you pay. And I am probably the only one among the disciples of the Sword Transfer Hall who can open this thing, otherwise you will have to find someone at the elder level, which is not the price."
"oh."
…
After coming out of the sword hall, Chu Liang was thinking about how to get some sword coins. I still have to save money for the elixir-forming materials, but I can never have too many sword coins.
As soon as he went out and saw the door of the Dharma Protector Hall next to him, he simply walked in.
I recently got a new magical power from outside, and I wonder if I can exchange it for some rewards.
The new magical power he has now, the Evil Dispelling Curse, was rewarded by the White Tower. There is no way to practice it, so he definitely can't hand it in; the magical power of the wonderful hand is for thieves, and Chu Liang doesn't want it to spread. On the one hand, it is a legend. If you go out, you won't be able to keep it secret. On the other hand, you can't guarantee that it won't be abused; so in the end, the only thing you can hand over is the newly acquired "Godly Slaughter and Blood Refining Technique".
The door of the Dharma Protector Hall is still deserted.
The square-faced young fellow named Yuan Zhuo was still sitting there, reading quietly.
Chu Liang stepped forward and greeted: "Fang... uh, Senior Brother Yuan!"
Yuan Zhuo raised his head and responded: "Junior brother Chu Liang."
Chu Liang was a little surprised that the other party had only seen him once, but he could still recognize him at a glance after so long.
"I captured another demon sect technique, and I wanted to see if I could exchange it for some rewards." Chu Liang said.
"Bring it to me for a look." Yuan Zhuo stretched out his hand.
Chu Liang handed him the copy of "The Divine Slaughter and Blood Refining Technique". Yuan Zhuo glanced at it with his consciousness and immediately said: "There is indeed nothing in the library."
"Great." Chu Liang smiled.
Yuan Zhuo paused again and then said: "Junior Brother Chu, I'm sorry, you'd better not practice this technique yourself."
"Ah?" Chu Liang asked, "Why?"
If Yuan Zhuo hadn't told him, he would have really planned to practice.
"This Demonic Cultivation Technique focuses on refining the essence and blood of living beings before death to strengthen themselves." Yuan Zhuo explained: "Such actions are against the Dao and will inevitably be entangled with karma."
"Usually, people in demon sects practice techniques to offset this karma, and some people even specialize in karma and enter the Tao. But...evil methods are evil methods. The so-called evil will be punished, but it is actually this karma that causes trouble. . Even if you can deceive your own heart, you can't deceive the way of heaven. No matter how many ways they practice to offset it, the end result is often that they can't escape the reincarnation of the way of heaven, that's it."
When he said this, Chu Liang understood.
The most typical one is the Famous Red Sword. There should be some kind of law about karma. Meeting those bloody people is like taking a beating.
He kills quite a lot of creatures these days, but if he kills monsters for the purpose, not only will he not increase his karma, but he will also gain merit. But in the future, if you kill for the purpose of absorbing blood essence, you will inevitably suffer from karma.
Originally, Chu Liang thought that he could practice his magical powers while slaying demons. But now it seems that it is a bit simple.
"If you just practice this technique, you won't actually be polluted too much, but as a practitioner, you'd better be cautious when walking throughout your life. This kind of unnecessary karma should be avoided as much as possible. Otherwise, when you ask questions in the future, you will inevitably It won't be a threshold for you." Yuan Zhuo said: "Moreover, if you want the magical power of blood refining, there is nothing else in the Dharma Protector Hall."
"Is there a Dharma Protector Hall?" Chu Liang's eyes lit up.
"This is natural." Yuan Zhuo said: "Such magical powers are actually not too rare. The reason why there are so few people practicing them is because the energy of the practitioners is limited, and they cannot pursue all the secrets of their own. Strong spirituality. Usually only after reaching the sixth realm can one have extra energy to perfect oneself."
His words made Chu Liang realize something.
The magical powers that he currently masters are not few among the disciples of the Divine Realm in Shushan, and even the Talisman Sword Techniques and so on are already extraordinary.
The reason why he felt that he had learned little was actually because he did not put most of his energy into improving his cultivation.
My time here is peaceful, just because I have a big-headed doll to carry the burden for me!
A normal practitioner may be busy improving his cultivation and attacking the golden elixir at this stage. After that, the golden elixir will attack the five elements. Step by step, he will focus more on his cultivation.
For all kinds of complicated magical powers, many of them have to be given up selectively.
But I never worried about this, so I had a lot of time and energy to focus on improving magical weapons and magical powers.
"If you want, then use the reward for surrendering your magical power this time to exchange it for a replacement skill." Yuan Zhuo said as he stood up and walked back.
After a while, he came back with a jade slip.
"This "Spiritual Light Blood Tempering Technique" progresses a little slower, but it is more reliable. Only by practicing in this way can I follow the right path." Yuan Zhuo warned.
Chu Liang took it and thanked him seriously: "Thank you, Senior Brother Yuan, for your teaching."
"It's not about teachings, it's just about experience." Yuan Zhuo remained expressionless and calm.
Chu Liang savored Yuan Zhuo's words and felt that what this square-faced senior brother said was correct and in line with the Dao. This person could never be as simple as an ordinary deacon disciple.
Unknowingly, there was a hint of reverence in his eyes.
Just as he was about to say goodbye, Yuan Zhuo suddenly raised his hand and said, "No, your reward is not enough for the price of this "Spiritual Light Blood Tempering Technique". You have to make up the difference."
"Ah?" Chu Liang stared. Is there any idea of making up the price difference? He quickly asked: "How much do I need to make up?"
Yuan Zhuo calculated with his eyes flickering and replied: "Seventy sword coins."
"Um……"
Chu Liang pursed his lips.
The light in his eyes disappeared.
Good morning.
Another two chapters of nearly 6,000 words, the monthly ticket is up.
