Chapter 18 Time
The heavy rain is about to stop, leaving only a few small raindrops that seem to be beating on the stone bricks, reflecting the colorful rainbow light in the sky after the rain, and it ends quietly.
The rain stopped, just like its short life. In just a moment of falling, it came to the end of its life, gathered together with thousands of accumulated water, and seeped into the land without leaving a trace.
After the rain, life blooms. A green grass bud emerges from the gap between the stone bricks. Even if the wind and rain blow by, its flexible grass body only bends slightly. After the wind and rain, it is still as stubborn as ever. .
The black satin shoes stepped on the stone bricks, and the long white fingers twisted the grass that had just grown after the rain, and chuckled: "It has been a long time since I saw the rain fall. This rain came at the right time."
The young Taoist gently threw the grass into the breeze, turned around and walked towards the Taoist Palace in the center.
He was wearing a complex black robe that reached the floor, covering the uppers of his shoes. The young man had a slender figure. As the young man turned around, the corners of his clothes fluttered slightly.
Although there was still some light rain falling on the mysterious black robe, it penetrated without a trace. It was obvious that the material was made of fine silk and satin.
The long black hair was tied up with a green jade hairpin. The young Taoist gently brushed the black hair hanging in front of his forehead and said to himself again: "Unconsciously, my hair has grown so long."
As soon as he arrived at the gate of the Taoist Palace, he saw a young man wearing a python robe walking out slowly. The young Taoist saluted and said, "Senior Brother Zhang."
The young man is Zhang Keyu, the eldest son of Prince Xing.
At this time, Zhang Keyu was a little surprised and said: "Junior Brother Sheng, I heard Master Qingxin tell me that you have understood the Water Gathering Heart Technique. This is your last retreat, but you have not left the Taoist Pagoda for more than three years."
The young Taoist priest was Xu Disheng. Hearing this, he smiled and said, "Ten years is just a blink of an eye for practitioners like us. I haven't seen you for three years, but my senior brother is still as handsome and handsome as ever."
Zhang Keyu smiled bitterly and said: "If you don't enter the innate world, you won't increase your lifespan. Although my brother has just discovered the realm of Tongmai and his appearance has been there for a long time, he is still far away from the extraordinary innate state. Junior Brother Sheng, you have mastered the Water Gathering Heart Technique." ?”
A glimmer of light flashed in Xu Disheng's eyes, and he said with a smile: "It's just the beginning of understanding the wonderful way."
The Water Gathering Heart Technique in his mouth is exactly the first form of "Canghai" given to Xu Disheng by Qingxin Daojun ten years ago, which is to gather water.
"How about I try the above-mentioned spell with you, brother?" Zhang Keyu was also a little curious about Qingxin Daojun's technique, but he was a little happy to see it.
"But listen to senior brother's instructions." Xu Disheng said respectfully, but he had already pinched the seal in his hand, with a black sleeve
His robe was flying and he said: "Gathering water makes me sleepy."
Zhang Keyu has been practicing Xuanqi for more than twenty years. In recent years, he has finally spread the pure Xuanqi throughout his meridians and filled his whole body, which can be called the state of Tongmai.
He stood in front of the Tao Palace, but the air around him suddenly became thicker. A circle of water curtain appeared out of thin air, covering his whole body close to his skin, imprisoning his body and making him unable to move.
Zhang Keyu moved his fingers and found that the water curtain was pliable but could not be taken off. A smile appeared on his lips and he said: "But, as a brother, I won't bully you. I won't suppress you with the mysterious energy of the meridians. I will only talk about the spell. Shangqing, break it." boundary!"
A stream of pure profound energy rushed out from the Jianggong acupoint and surrounded the whole body.
With a "boom", the water curtain around him broke open.
"Gather water and kill." Xu Disheng pinched his hands again.
Water mist condensed in the air, and a slender water arrow slowly took shape. The water arrow was transparent, trembling slightly, suspended in the air, and looked harmless.
However, Zhang Keyu's expression turned slightly serious. He waved his sleeves and waved a stream of pure profound energy around himself, gathered it into a shield shape, and said: "Protect the body."
The water arrow rushed out and hit the mysterious energy. The mysterious energy shield cracked and slowly dissipated.
The water arrow rebounded and turned in an instant, hitting the stone bricks in front of the Tao Palace.
"boom!"
The stone bricks exploded, and a large pit with a radius of two feet and a depth of about one foot appeared on the ground.
Obviously, this water arrow is extremely powerful.
If it hits the human body, even ten people can pierce the candied haws together.
"The magic of this Water Gathering Heart Jue, if driven by the same amount of profound energy, is probably even better than the Shangqing Spell." Zhang Keyu praised.
"Senior brother, you are overly complimentary." Xu Disheng walked closer and looked at the stone bricks. "This time of retreat, I have not left the Taoist Tower for more than three years. Although I have mastered the Water Gathering Heart Art, I am still a little dull in some places. I am about to go to the Taoist Tower. I’m going to the palace to see Master and ask for advice.”
Zhang Keyu looked at the main hall behind him and said: "Uncle Qingxin and Master have been to the Taoist Palace in Dongqin Prefecture a year ago. At this moment, there are only you and me in the Taoist Palace. I just went to the third floor of the Taoist Palace to get the medicine." , but there are not enough elixirs such as pulse-forging pills and qi-nourishing pills in my palace."
Xu Disheng was a little confused and said: "Senior brother is already in the Tongmai realm, so why do we need this kind of pill for warriors to strengthen their bodies?"
Zhang Keyu walked down the steps and said with a smile: "It's a reward for the servants."
With the dignity of the Crown Prince, he can rule over a state and have countless servants. This is the proper use for him.
Zhang Keyu said again: "
On the other hand, Junior Brother Sheng, since you entered the Taoist Palace, you have devoted yourself to practicing hard. You were doing well at first. You often walked around the Taoist Palace and met me often. Now in the past few years, it has become more and more serious, often going into seclusion for one year, two years, and this time it has been more than three years without leaving the Taoist tower. You were just a five-year-old child when you first came here, and you had this kind of mentality. Now, ten years have passed, but you are still the same as before, which makes me admire you a little. "
"Master and Uncle Qingyu, haven't they often been in seclusion for more than ten years?" Xu Disheng stretched out his palm, and a small drop of rain fell on his palm.
"The lifespans of several elders are as long as five hundred years, but if we don't enter the innate world, we will only live a hundred years at most." Zhang Keyu sighed with a hint of envy in his eyes.
"That's why we should practice like this in order to be brave and diligent." Xu Disheng lowered his gaze and looked at the green grass growing between the gaps in the stone bricks, with a hint of yearning in his tone.
"In the past few years, there have been a lot of letters from the Xu family in Ruyang. People from the Xu family have come here several times and want to see you. You have been in retreat. The Taoist mansion is a forbidden area in Youyang Palace, so I won't let you in."
"The Ruyang Xu family, after ten years, it's time to go back once." Xu Disheng said softly.
"Junior Brother Sheng, if you need a carriage or something, you can just ask the palace guards." Zhang Keyu got on the gorgeous sedan on one side, "Go back to the Palace of Supreme Harmony."
"Yes, please come down from the Crown Prince's residence." A guard and a sedan bearer were waiting for Zhang Keyu to get on the sedan and headed towards the front palace, Taihe Palace.
For ten years, Xu Disheng has been practicing non-stop, and now he is a handsome young man of fifteen years old.
The original wisp of pure profound energy has now spread all over the body's more than twenty acupoints and meridians, and there are only a dozen or so acupoints left to fill up before it can be ranked in the realm of unblocking meridians.
Xu Disheng noticed that he was absorbing and transforming the vitality of the world faster and faster, and gradually made a bold guess.
The jade flute that was constantly rotating slowly in the sea of consciousness, shedding green light, had been like this since birth, but his body had never felt any change.
He also thought that his aptitude for detecting the second-grade profound veins was extremely unreasonable, whether it was inherited from his parents or the bloodline of his ancestors, so there was only one explanation left!
The explanation is that the jade flute that was born with him and the green light that slowly sheds all the time improves nothing else but his own qualifications!
Especially in recent years, Xu Disheng's rate of converting the vitality of heaven and earth into the pure profound energy has increased dramatically, which is extremely unreasonable.
After thinking about it, this is the only explanation.
