Chapter 528 Gradual recovery [Added update for ‘Kodi’]
"Hey, this man doesn't need to be angry."
Before I saw the person, I heard his voice first.
After the laughter, the person who opened the curtain of the back hall and walked out was dressed in Tsing Yi, with a turban and a hat tied up his black hair, and under the hat was a rich smile.
He raised his hand and said with a smile: "I am the innkeeper, known as Liu Sanpang."
"I don't know that Monk Gaozong has lost his welcome. If you want to stay in a hotel or eat, my Izumo Inn is..."
The gloomy green-faced man interrupted the shopkeeper Liu's unfinished words with a deep voice: "We are here, not intending to be separated from your master, just to find the person in the painting."
"Someone said they saw this person in your inn."
As he spoke, the green-faced man opened the scroll in his hand again.
In the center of the scroll is a woman, a very beautiful woman with a graceful and graceful figure.
The face was also very clear, it was Miao Nightingale who had just stayed at the inn not long ago.
Liu Sanpang carefully tapped the scroll in front of him and said with a smile: "There is such a person, but once the quiet room restriction is opened, no one else can open it except the person holding the key. I'm sorry that I can't do anything."
The green-faced man chuckled: "Is there nothing you can do? If there is really nothing you can do, those thirty-six quiet rooms have already been filled up by those monks who are in retreat, and it will be difficult for others to free them up."
"The formation is rooted and shrouded. It is not up to me to fully activate it. Since Monk Gaozong has a way, why not ask my master for instructions. Then all the problems will be solved soon."
"Hey, may I ask, how did this woman offend Emperor Gaozong?"
The green-faced man's expression became increasingly gloomy. If he was so powerful, he would not appear here in person. He is just a small deacon of the Hehuan Sect's external affairs, not even the helmsman.
That is to say, there was an order from above to catch the escaped person, so he did it personally. He didn't expect that this inn was so stubborn and wouldn't give him the honor of raising the banner.
"If she leaves the customs, there will be a generous reward as soon as the shopkeeper informs her."
"let's go."
The three of them came in a hurry and did not stay too long. After exiting the door of the inn, the green-faced man waved his hand and said: "You two keep an eye on her here. No matter the front door or the back door, don't let her go."
"I'll go find the steward."
Leaving someone to look after him, the green-faced man quickly left.
After finding a restaurant and restaurant, the two people who were ordered to come down by the big man couldn't help but chat: "At the beginning of Qi training, I didn't expect that the superiors would take it so seriously."
"If one escapes today, leave him alone, and tomorrow the second one will escape. If they are all escaped, what will you and my brothers eat and drink? The higher-ups must be thinking the same way. Now they are just killing the chicken to scare the monkeys."
"Well, it's just hard on you and my brother. I'm afraid I'll have to stay on guard for a while. I just hope that person can get out of seclusion quickly and don't stay cooped up for too long."
The two looked at each other and sighed together. Anyway, as long as he finds someone, it will be fine, but now he is stuck in the inn again, and he can't leave even if he really gets wings.
…
Miao Nightingale in the quiet room didn't know so many things happened, and she didn't know that her whereabouts had been exposed.
Two volumes before me.
The basic Taoist Qi training and basic magical powers.
Tu Shanjun did not teach advanced knowledge, nor did he continue to teach Miao Yeying the detailed explanation of alchemy. It was enough to have a basic understanding of pharmacology and be able to mix some spiritual fluids on his own, and it would be of no benefit to her to learn more in depth.
In particular, although Miao Yeying has all the five elements of spiritual roots, she focuses on water. Not only is she not very comfortable with the fire control method, but she is also quite restricted. It is better to improve her cultivation while she is pure and then learn the life-saving skills with both hands.
If you really want to refine some other elixirs in the future, Tushanjun can take action. Even if it doesn't work, you can use the spirit stones to buy them from Guxian Tower.
Prepare the spirit liquid and take the elixir.
Meditate and practice qi, refining your own qi and blood.
Fast forward more than two months.
Miao Yeying opened her eyes and used a body-washing technique to cleanse her face and body. The robe also woke up from the darkness. When I stood up and moved my body, the physical body's fullness due to the replenishment of qi, blood and tonics had disappeared.
The whole thing looks more symmetrical, not as strong as a rock. Not only has her power not diminished, but it has become stronger. Because she finally absorbed the tonic, she also stretched her magic power to her body and refined it into a round shape.
The black-red bracelet opened its scarlet eyes, stretched out a silk thread to trap a vajra-type magical weapon, opened its bloody mouth and bit it off in one bite. The sharp fangs were comparable to magical weapons, let alone magical weapons. Even magic weapons can't resist it.
There is no use in keeping these magic weapons. Miao Yeying is just a Qi practitioner and cannot be used if he takes them out. If he sells them, he will be easily forgotten. It is better to let him eat them all to help him regain his divine power.
In two months, Tu Shanjun chewed into pieces three magic weapons and hundreds of magic weapons. Those things piled up in the soul flag, regardless of whether they could be used or not, as long as they contained evil energy, became his food.
Nowadays, there are still a few magic weapons left and many remaining alchemy materials from back then.
As the vajra was crushed by the fangs, only five or six intertwined cracks remained on the body of the soul flag, and these five or six were the deepest and widest.
The soul flag has regained some of its former power, allowing Tushanjun to use more magical powers.
Now he should be able to use the dream-entrance technique to attract Miao Yeying's consciousness and make it appear in the soul flag. This way, he can also hone his fighting skills and not have to rely on talismans to face the enemy.
This is not to say that the talisman is not good. Compared with the magic formula that requires twisting and sealing, the talisman can be fired instantly, unexpectedly and powerfully.
But we cannot ignore our own abilities.
Miao Nighting stretched out her palms and looked at her body, looking inside her body. She must have accumulated mana that reached the sixth level of Qi training. She already felt the invisible bottleneck at that level, which was the restraint and suppression of her in the later period.
Just like what she knew before, if there is no opportunity or barrier-breaking pill, she doesn't know how long it will take to break through the current bottleneck.
If you are lucky, it may pass in a few years; if you are unlucky, it may take ten or decades, or even more likely, you may not be able to break through in your lifetime.
"Barrier-Breaking Pill." Miao Yeying raised her head and drank a red pill. She suddenly felt a huge and gentle spiritual energy surrounding her, as if she was in an ocean of spiritual energy, and the energy around her body was condensed.
As the Dantian expanded, the vision suddenly became brighter.
The savings sank, and the original feeling of slight shackles disappeared, replaced by unprecedented freedom. The body happily absorbed the spiritual energy and continuously converted it into mana.
The abundant spiritual energy created by the inn's spirit gathering array was also absorbed by Miao Nightingale.
"Late stage of Qi training!"
Miao Yeying let out a sigh of relief, with a faint and unreal look in her eyes. She didn't expect that in just half a year, she would break through to the late stage of Qi training, and on average, she would reach the first level of Qi training every month.
Simply unheard of.
Even the legendary Tianlinggen cannot compare with it.
However, all this was because she obtained the Soul Flag and the Master who resided on the Soul Flag. "Opportunity? Yes, this may be the greatest opportunity. From now on, there will no longer be any need to seek outside opportunities."
I had never heard that you can practice meditation just by sitting still. None of the monks who reached the bottleneck had the opportunity to go out and seek breakthroughs, but she could practice steadily without worrying about the bottleneck.
"Exit?"
"The supplies are rich, the elixirs are sufficient, and the spiritual liquid has not been used up yet. Why did you leave the border?"
"Do you feel suffocated after being in seclusion for too long?"
Miao Yeying then thought about it and thought that this was really the case. Since she didn't lack anything and her practice was on the rise, now was not the time to tell her what she was going to do in seclusion. There was nothing else to do except hang out. Do.
"What Master said is absolutely true."
Tushanjun continued to chew on the magic weapon,
Once these magic weapons are in his belly, he should be able to repair the Soul Banner to 60-70%. This will give him some confidence to avoid having to take a detour whenever he encounters a foundation-building monk.
…
March again.
The green-faced man widened his eyes and asked suspiciously, "Don't you see anyone coming out yet?"
"Return to the deacon, our brothers have been on guard for five months, and we really haven't seen that man come out." The handyman disciple was miserable.
At first they were still chatting and laughing, calm and composed, and even imagined how to chase and intercept him. However, as time went by, they became worried, fearing that they might accidentally escape the person.
But when they went to the inn to inquire again, they still got the same answer as before, saying that the formation in the quiet room was still functioning and the monk who rented the quiet room had not left.
"Could it be that she was deceived? In fact, she left long ago?"
"It should be...impossible." The green-faced man frowned and looked solemn. He also felt that something was fishy, but he didn't know what the problem was: "If it really doesn't work, I can only report it and ask the hall master to help. .”
While he was struggling, the handyman disciple who was guarding the back door hurriedly ran over out of breath and said happily: "Deacon, deacon..., that person... that person came out."
"Out?"
"Walk!"
…
Not far from the entrance of Fangshi, a green-faced man and two handyman disciples blocked the way of a person. The person looked like a slender woman, and her aura was covered by the spell, making it impossible to tell the depth.
The green-faced man stepped forward and asked coldly: "Partridge Pond Hualou Miao Nightingale, do you know your guilt?"
Miao Yeying, who was wearing a bamboo hat, focused his eyes on one place, and his sharp gaze was like a knife scraping away from the three of them. He only heard a faint saying: "I'm afraid you have mistakenly identified the wrong person, and I don't know what you are talking about." .”
The big man snorted and shouted: "Miao Yeying, don't pretend to be confused. Just take off your bamboo hat, put down your weapons, and surrender. Your Majesty can give you a lighter sentence, otherwise you will die without a burial place."
"It's up to you!"
"One in the late stage of Qi training, two in the middle stage of Qi training?" Miao Yeying clenched her sword tightly, opened her scarlet eyes on the bracelet on her wrist, turned them up and down, and glanced at the three people in front of her.
The green-faced man had a sullen expression. No matter what his cultivation level was, this Donglai City was the headquarters of the Tianlang Sect after all. With Grandmaster Jindan in charge, they would definitely be held accountable for their unprovoked actions.
In this case, the gain outweighs the loss.
However, he didn't care so much. He was confident that the strength of the three of them was enough to solve it quickly. However, after looking around and seeing the garrison monk not far away who was looking lazily but never leaving them, he had to give up.
"Miao Nightingale, you can't escape!"
"The hall master is coming soon. I wonder how you can escape. The city won't be able to protect you by then."
