Chapter 296: Immortal Qi, Pure Yang Thunder
"Of course it's a workaround." Yan Shouyi said with a smile: "The core reason why it is difficult for you to obtain merit now is that you are too weak compared to this world, but what if you change the world?"
"Senior brother, what do you mean..." Zhou Heng's eyes lit up when he heard this, and he said: "Change to another world that is weaker than this one?"
"That's right." Yan Shouyi nodded slightly and said, "Junior brother, with your current level of cultivation in the True Qi Realm, in our world, you are just an ordinary Secret Sixth Grade, and at most you are stronger.
"But if it were a world where the strongest one was only equivalent to the seventh level, you would be like a land god, and your actions would naturally be more likely to cause feedback from the world."
"Yes, this is a good idea!" Zhou Heng nodded and laughed, but he had some doubts, "But will the merit obtained in this way be different from the merit obtained in our world?"
"There is no difference in essence." Yan Shouyi shook his head and said: "There is only a difference in quantity. Maybe if you do some earth-shattering things in other worlds, it may only be easier than killing a fifth-level evil spirit. more."
"The evil spirits of the fifth grade of Zong are not that common." Zhou Heng said with a smile: "Looking at it this way, it is indeed a good idea to go to other worlds to accumulate merit."
"That's the truth." Yan Shouyi nodded slightly and said, "However, how to act in accordance with the laws of heaven and earth's movement requires detailed world information, which your Zhoutian Xunjie Division should have. "
"Well, I will ask." Zhou Heng nodded, and then said with a smile: "Senior brother seems to know the Zhoutian Xunjie Division very well."
"Junior brother, you are overthinking." Yan Shouyi chuckled and said, "Your senior brother, as the headmaster of Chunyang Palace, I am number one on the Heavenly Ranking. Will the Zhoutian Xunjie Division have no contact with me?"
"That's true." Zhou Heng nodded.
"Junior brother, when do you plan to explore?" Yan Shouyi asked.
"There's no rush for this. I plan to consolidate my newly achieved cultivation realm now on the mountain." Zhou Heng thought for a moment and then said, "And I have one more question to ask when I return to the mountain this time."
Then, he simply explained to Yan Shouyi that he needed to practice various types of Qi and needed more internal strength.
"This is easy to talk about." Yan Shou drank a cup of tea and said with a smile: "Later, I will ask Chen Xuan to take you to the Daoxu Cave, where many martial arts secrets are stored.
"However, the Chunyang sect has rules. The secrets are not free. In addition to what you have learned at the beginning, if you want to learn more martial arts, you must complete the corresponding tasks. Junior brother must be prepared."
"Senior brother, don't worry, we are prepared." Zhou Heng said with a smile, "But there is no rush in this matter. After I have consolidated my cultivation in a few days, it will not be too late for me to ask Chen Xuan to take me to the Daoxu Cave."
"Junior brother, please stay in Jinding first, and then tell me when you have consolidated your cultivation level." Yan Shou nodded slightly and said with a smile: "There are still several side halls here. I usually live alone. It’s boring, junior brother, you can still drink tea with me here.”
"Thank you, senior brother." Zhou Heng said with a smile.
…
…
The next morning, when the sun was rising and the air was filled with purple air.
Zhou Heng sat cross-legged in the sea of clouds in front of the Golden Dome, his eyes slightly closed, the inner scene and the outer scene, intersecting heaven and earth, all-encompassing, accommodating everything, the atmosphere unfolded, echoing the purple air of the rising sun in the distant sky.
He is meditating on and practicing the Secret of Immortality.
"You are studying the martial arts "The Secret of Immortality" [Secret Sixth Grade]. Since you have a high level of knowledge in similar martial arts, you have a deep understanding of it and understand the mystery. Your proficiency is +1."
"Congratulations! The proficiency level of the martial arts "Secret Sixth Grade" of "The Secret of Immortality" has reached 1, and you have officially learned this martial art. Due to your profound knowledge of similar martial arts, the proficiency level is +25,000."
"Congratulations! Because you have learned similar martial arts, your understanding of the martial arts "Chun Yang Dan Jing" [Level 5] has deepened. You are blessed to the soul and your proficiency is +1000."
"Congratulations! Since your internal energy nourishes the physical body and improves the strength of the physical body, the proficiency of the martial arts "Golden Bell" [Secret Sixth Grade] +2000."
"Congratulations! Due to the improvement of your internal energy, your proficiency in the martial arts "Innate Phaseless Sword Finger" [Secret Sixth Grade] will be +1000."
…
[Secret Sixth Grade] Immortality Secret: Seventh Level (5871/7000)
…
When the morning sun rises and the purple air dissipates, the sea of clouds around the top of Yuxu Peak has been dyed with golden clouds.
Just in response to the name of Jinding.
Zhou Heng refined the Qi of Immortality and brought about a series of improvements.
At the same time, I truly understood the mystery of this long-lasting secret.
This is an internal skill that focuses more on the practice itself. It uses acupuncture points all over the body to sense the mysteries of all things, and induces the vitality of heaven and earth to enter the body for refining, thereby enhancing one's own true energy.
If you obtain this skill when you are at the third level, you can directly cultivate the innate true energy. It is not impossible to use your cultivation level at the peak of the seventh level to challenge the secret sixth level true energy state with all your strength.
It can be called a miracle.
Unfortunately, when you reach the secret sixth level, using the inner world and the earth to sense the laws of the outer world and attracting the vitality of the world into the body, this cultivation method is no longer unique to the Secret of Immortality, but is practiced by everyone.
Therefore, for the vast majority of secret sixth-level warriors, the Secret of Immortality can only be regarded as an ordinary beauty-preserving and health-preserving martial art, with some ability to extend life.
But Zhou Heng is different. His inner scene has an all-encompassing and accommodating core. After cultivating the true energy, the inner scene can accommodate it, thereby enhancing its original effect.
This allowed Zhou Heng to expand the range of heaven and earth energy, from the original maximum of 500 feet to nearly 550 feet. It was easier to mobilize heaven and earth energy, especially in the performance of Taoism, which became smoother and smoother.
"Compared with martial arts, the true qi refined by Changsheng Jue is obviously more suitable for performing Taoism." Zhou Heng couldn't help but laugh secretly.
At the same time, he couldn't help but think that if he processed and modified Changsheng Jue as a basis, maybe he could really come up with some so-called "cultivation" skills?
However, this was just a temporary idea, and his thinking was divergent, and he didn't think deeply about it.
For the next half a month, Zhou Heng spent his time in the sea of clouds around the Golden Summit to temper his true qi, temper his body, and consolidate his secret sixth-grade cultivation realm. At the same time, he practiced the five-grade martial arts of the three sects that he had obtained in Yuan Zhenzi's cave heaven.
That is: "Dongxuan Lingxu Finger", "Tianxu Wanying Fenguang Sword Jue", and "Yuyu Qingchen Sword Technique".
These are all the master-level martial arts of Zhixu Sect, and they were lost three thousand years ago. Even the current head of Zhixu Sect, Chen Yingyu, would not know them.
"I have to find a chance to return the inheritance of Zhixu Sect from the statue of Taoist Qingyu." Zhou Heng thought to himself. He had received the generous reward of three fifth-grade martial arts and one third-grade divine art of Zhixu Sect, so he still had to do things.
Thinking of this, he slowly opened his slightly closed eyes, restrained his consciousness that sensed the laws of heaven and earth, calmed down the running true qi, stood up, stepped on the sea of clouds, crossed the void in the air, and returned to the top of the golden peak.
It's time to go to Daoxu Cave Heaven.
...
The wind and snow were howling on the back mountain of Yuxu Peak, but they couldn't get close to the plank road.
Zhou Heng and Chen Xuan walked on this plank road to the entrance of Daoxu Cave Heaven. The whole plank road was set with restrictions, which not only blocked the wind and snow, but also prohibited flying.
This is because Daoxu Cave Heaven was actually left by a celestial being among the third generation of disciples of Chunyang Palace.
For most of the current disciples, this celestial being is a ancestor. Going to Daoxu Cave Heaven is basically equivalent to visiting the tomb of the ancestor, so the necessary respect is still required.
After walking along the long plank road, the two came to a stone platform that was suspended from the cliff, with a white and thick cloud in front of them.
"Uncle Master, please wait." Chen Xuan stepped forward, took out a token carved with white jade, pinched the formula in his hand, muttered something, and finally shouted in a low voice, "Open!"
As soon as the voice fell, the token carved with white jade was seen to emit a bright green light, illuminating the white cloud in front, causing the cloud to tumble apart, revealing a suspended door with golden light flowing.
"Uncle Master, this is the Daoxu Heaven Gate." Chen Xuan said respectfully: "Please come in."
He just brought Zhou Heng here and opened the Daoxu Heaven Gate, but did not go in.
"Thank you." Zhou Heng nodded gently, and then he stepped directly into the void, walked out of the suspended stone platform, and walked towards the Daoxu Tianmen.
There was clearly a deep abyss under his feet, but he did not fall down. This was the power of the Daoxu Tianmen. When the door appeared, an invisible road was formed.
When Zhou Heng came to the door, he saw the golden light on the door flowing quickly, covering him. The next moment, he found himself in another world.
There seemed to be no distinction between heaven and earth here, no sun, moon, stars, mountains, rivers, and all things. It was just a gray world, and even the legal rules were very obscure.
It was obviously not a normal world.
However, before coming to Daoxu Dongtian, Zhou Heng heard Yan Shouyi say that this cave was later transformed and was completely different from ordinary caves, so there was no need for surprise.
There was no specific place to store secret books in Daoxu Dongtian, because all martial arts and Taoist secret books had been placed in the Dao law of this cave.
With just words and voices, you can call up the catalogue and the tasks that need to be completed to obtain the secret book.
Most of these tasks come from the disciples of Chunyang Palace outside who send messages to the sect, or need the sect's help, or report back the information of certain enemies found outside...
After being sorted by a dedicated person, this information will be converted into clear tasks, and then corresponding to different levels of martial arts according to the difficulty and emergency situation.
However, since the number of martial arts and tasks is generally not the same, there will usually be a situation where one martial art corresponds to multiple tasks, or there may be multiple martial arts corresponding to one task. As long as the task is completed, you can choose any one of the corresponding martial arts.
"The fourth-grade internal power." Zhou Heng said in a deep voice. Since you want to find it, find a powerful one first. Even if the task cannot be completed, you can take a look first and then choose the fifth-grade one of the sect.
As soon as the voice fell, he saw a list of books in front of him, a total of 37 internal power secret books.
"Heavenly Escape Method", "Heavenly Thunder Treasure Appearance Dao Body"... "Pure Yang Great Sage Golden Book", "Infinite True Yang Immortal Technique"...
Zhou Heng checked the requirements for obtaining the Heavenly Escape Method.
"You need to kill the scattered immortal 'Kong Xu Zi', the master of the Three Yang Palace in the East Sea."
He looked at the Pure Yang Great Sage Golden Book again.
"You need to kill nine fourth-grade grandmasters of the four evil ways and seize a fourth-grade treasure weapon of the evil way."
...
Zhou Heng soon realized that this was not something he could read now.
So, he changed his words and called for "fifth-grade internal strength of the sect".
Then, the catalog in front of Zhou Heng changed accordingly, and the number also changed a lot. This time there were nearly two hundred volumes.
This means that among the fifth-grade martial arts inherited by Chunyang Palace, there are more than 200 internal skills alone. These are the sect-protecting skills of countless medium-sized sects, or the martial arts that some small sects cannot obtain.
Chunyang Palace can be said to have a profound foundation.
Even Zhou Heng was dazzled by these secret books, and didn't know which martial arts to choose for a while.
However, after some consideration, he decided to choose according to the task situation, to see which tasks are relatively easy to complete and have good internal skills.
This way, he can give priority.
...
Finally, Zhou Heng chose "Chunyang Fury Thunder Skill".
This is a fifth-grade internal skill derived from "Chunyang Dan Jing", which can make the pure yang true qi manifest the power of thunder, and can also refine the pure yang fury thunder Dharma.
It is like the wrath of the thunder god, with great power.
For Zhou Heng, this internal skill is not only convenient and quick to practice, but also can directly enhance the power of his purple thunder sword technique, the magic sword to control thunder true art, and the five thunders.
It can be said to be very suitable.
The corresponding task was also quite to Zhou Heng's liking. Since it was derived from the Pure Yang Pill Scripture, the difficulty was not high.
The location was in Anhe Prefecture, Pingzhou, adjacent to Huangtong Prefecture, a place he was familiar with.
According to the description of the task information -
Starting from a month ago, strong men or male warriors with considerable cultivation often disappeared in the middle of the night in various places in Anhe Prefecture. After a few days, their bodies would be exposed on the streets, and their bodies were all skinny.
Among them were many famous local seventh-grade warriors. The government office in the prefecture city could not find out the truth and catch the murderer, which caused great panic among the locals.
More than half a month ago, the son of Weng Kang, the owner of Yuhuabao Shop in Anhe Prefecture, also suffered a tragic fate.
This Weng Kang and his son were both outer disciples of Chunyang Palace, and he himself was the general manager of Chunyang Palace's jewelry industry in various prefectures in Pingzhou, earning a lot of wealth for Chunyang Palace.
So Weng Kang wrote a letter to the sect, hoping to find out the matter and avenge his son.
After receiving the letter, Chunyang Palace, after reviewing and sorting it out by the disciples who were specifically responsible for this aspect, initially suspected that there was an evil master from Honghua Palace who was practicing the evil method of taking yang to replenish yin.
Then a task was formulated, and it was recommended that the person who accepted the task should have a cultivation level of no less than the sixth level of the secret.
——The tasks of Chunyang Palace are not only used to exchange for martial arts secrets, but will also be issued in other places at the same time, and can be exchanged for other things after completion.
Therefore, it will not delay the task time.
…
After Zhou Heng accepted this task, he went down Taihua Mountain directly.
He went to Ziwei Palace and then landed in Pingzhou. Then, he flew into the sky with a sword, emptied his air and flew towards Anhe Mansion.
After breaking through to the sixth level of the secret, he has been practicing.
I am really itching.
It’s just right to find an evil master to try martial arts.
