In the next few days, Wei Shiqi went up to Xiongzheng Cliff alone, using the "heavy water" restriction to practice stick skills and flying swords. He did this non-stop from morning to night. When his true energy was almost exhausted, he found a hidden mountain col and used it to practice flying swords. The human-faced dove and red-eyed snake hidden in the Penglai bag were roasted and eaten to replenish their vitality. Ever since he compressed the vitality in the acupoints to the "Twelve Layers", successfully condensed the Tao Fei, and transformed the vitality into true essence, it was only a drop in the bucket to replenish the vitality by swallowing monster flesh and blood. The only way to refine it was with the "Aiki Zhixuan Jing" Only by taking demon pills or swallowing pills such as Qiankun Yiqi Pill and Huang Chi Pill can you replenish your true energy.
However, compared with directly absorbing the essence of the sun and moon, the vitality of heaven and earth, these two methods have considerable disadvantages.
"The Heqi Zhixuan Sutra" refining the demon elixir goes against the Kunlun righteousness/dharma. Over time, the impurities in the demon elixir are deposited in the body, polluting the Tao embryo, and the gain outweighs the loss. Swallowing elixirs is not a long-term solution. Taking Huangjiandan as an example, taking it for many years will weaken the potency and cause serious harm to the body. It is not advisable to exceed three bottles at most.
Most elixirs have this drawback. Mild, pure and harmless elixirs that can be taken for a long time. According to Qingming, there are only Qiankun Yiqi Dan and Wannian Zhiye. However, the Qiankun Yiqi Dan was refined by the master himself. There are not many left. They have been destroyed by Ruan long ago. After Jing is used up, Wannianzhi Liquid is too precious, so it should be used when the bottleneck of practicing one's natal magical powers is broken through.
Wei Shiqi thought about it, thinking about finding a time to go deep into the abyss of ghost gates, hunt monsters, and reserve enough flesh and blood for emergencies.
Let’s talk about everything after the year-end gambling game.
Calculating that there was not much time left before the agreed time, he returned to Wuya Temple, drank tea and fruits in the Tangfu room, rested for a long time, and then returned to the quiet room, swallowed the elixir, adjusted his breath and sat in meditation. When it was daylight, Wei Shiqi and Yu Yao joined hands on the Luming Cliff. They had been waiting there early in the Qingming Festival, squatting on the ground bored and scribbling with branches. When they saw their figures, they jumped up and used all their strength. Waving hands.
The three of them chatted and waited for a while. Unexpectedly, the opponents who wandered over turned out to be Jiang Yongshou and Pan Yun.
Jiang Yongshou still looked like a skinny and consumptive ghost, his face was even worse than before, his eyes were sunken, and he was weak. He relied on Pan Yun's arm to support him, and it seemed that he would fall down if he let go.
How is this going? Wei Shiqi asked Qingming with his eyes. Qingming shrugged and spread his hands and said: "Well, something went wrong. This senior brother Jiang didn't want to miss this year's year-end gambling game and was the first to take away the three elders Ding, Xu and Situ. The disciples have all been defeated, and I want to compete with you for the last spot in this year’s gambling game.”
Wei Shiqi looked at him for a few times and knew that the Qi of Hardware was deeply rooted in his heart and there was no cure. Jiang Yongshou would risk his life to enter the gambling game just to get a chance of survival. He defeated the disciples of three elders in a one-on-one fight, but the price he paid was heavy. He couldn't even stand firmly, but he still managed to come to Luming Cliff to fight with him for the last time.
Pan Yun suddenly said: "Junior brother Wei, can you give the opportunity of the year-end gambling game to senior brother Jiang? As a senior sister, I owe you a favor, but I will never hesitate to do so!
Jiang Yongshou moved his arm as if to dissuade her, then forced himself to hold it back, lowering his head and feeling speechless. The matter has come to this, what can we do if we don’t give in?
Wei Shiqi said: "Even if Senior Brother Jiang enters the gambling game, he is still cannon fodder, so why bother to hold on!"
"Junior brother Wei, you don't know something. Guan Canghai, a disciple of Elder Situ, is amazingly talented and has already broken through the sword energy barrier. If senior brother Jiang hadn't defeated him, the person competing with you for the place in the gambling game today would be Guan Canghai. There is no doubt that he will act viciously. , fall out ruthlessly, you are by no means his opponent, even if Senior Sister begs you to give up this opportunity, Senior Brother Jiang... He... He... can't wait for the next time..." As he said that, Pan Yun With red eyes and a cry in his voice, Jiang Yongshou let out a long sigh and patted the back of her hand, feeling secretly sad.
Qingming stood aside, smiling and saying nothing, letting Wei Shiqi reply.
Wei Shiqi's heart was as strong as iron, and he waved his hand and said: "I'm sorry, I am bound to win this year's year-end gambling game, I can't let it go."
Pan Yun screamed: "Junior brother, we are the same kind!"
Jiang Yongshou pushed her gently and whispered: "Junior sister, don't force anything, and don't say anything anymore!" There was determination in his eyes, he opened his mouth and spat out a shiny sword pill, waved it in the wind, and turned into a dragon. Shape sword.
Pan Yun stepped back step by step, staring at Wei Shiqi viciously, grinning, almost wanting to swallow him whole.
With no one to support him, Jiang Yongshou staggered a few times, lost his footing, and slumped to the ground, coughing repeatedly and spitting out a mouthful of blood. Wei Shiqi's heart moved and he tentatively walked around behind him. Sure enough, Jiang Yongshou found it extremely difficult to even turn around. He put his hands on the ground and gasped like a bellows.
Pan Yun cursed angrily: "Wei, you shameless villain! Bastard!"
Wei Shiqi ignored this and flicked out the sword pill with his fingers. The Hidden Snow Sword hovered in front of his chest, and the blue light spread like a dream.
Qingming clapped her hands and said, "Hurry up and let's get started!"
Before he finished speaking, Wei Shiqi took half a step without hesitation, his true energy surged, and the Hidden Snow Sword shot out quickly, slashing towards the back of Jiang Yongshou's neck.
