Traveling through the little expert and his wonderful employers

Chapter 17 Foundation Building

The road to practice is long and difficult, with mediocre aptitude, exhausted lifespan, and there are many people who have no chance of the Dao.

However, there is no shortage of geniuses in the world.The first disciple of the Wuxiang Sect has entered the late stage of the golden alchemy at a bone age of 25, and the young master of the Yanxia sect has formed the alchemy at twenty.Many amazing people, either because of their aptitude and understanding or because of their hard work due to chance, have reached the realm that most practitioners in the world are struggling to pursue.

Especially Xuantian Sword Gate.

Under the head of the sect, Qingxu, the youngest disciple is eleven years old. He is a genius of the Ice Spirit Root, and he built his foundation after three years of entry.In the small competition of the inner sect, a "struggling sword" showed its sharpness, and it had no opponents during the foundation building period.There was a sensation in Jianmen for a while, and the limelight was immeasurable.

The hustle and bustle outside the world has nothing to do with this place.

The cascading waterfall caused a thunderous roar, and the surging water waves in the pool wet the clothes of the sword-practicing young man by the pool.

It is just the beginning of growth, and there seems to be a bit of childishness between the handsome brows.But his eyes were quiet and firm.

His movements are dexterous, his flips and leaps are not stagnant, and his sword moves are smooth but extremely simple. Repeated hooking, hanging, pointing, picking, stabbing, teasing, and chopping over and over again, combined with his exquisite and changeable footwork, is extremely disproportionate.

But the young man practiced it over and over again without realizing it. From the sun hanging in the sky, the water is shining brightly, to the moon on the branches, reflecting the clear brilliance of the Bitan.

It was as if the sun and the moon were rotating, and the change of time could not move him at all.

Banquet Shiqian built the foundation half a year ago.

He never thought that there is a wonderful skill in the jade pendant left by his mother.

When he first entered Wanggui Peak, he got up at dawn every day to take care of the Lingtian. Shen Shi practiced a set of basic swordsmanship that he had learned at home to strengthen his body until dusk, and then he practiced Baopu Guiyi Jue until midnight. , So back and forth, practice hard.

Coupled with the rich spiritual energy in the peak and the spiritual gathering array in the house, after three months, the spiritual energy can finally run smoothly in the spiritual veins, guide the energy into the body, and officially step into the threshold of spiritual practice.Even though it was so slow and difficult, he still didn't waver in the slightest.

He tied the jade pendant and the forbidden jade talisman that Bai Han gave him in Kaifeng Peak together, and hung it on his chest.There is Bai Han's aura in the jade talisman, and Bai Han can sense it when he uses it.The patriarch in the distraction period had such a keen perception, presumably he noticed something strange about the jade pendant, one day when he had just poured water from the pool to water the spiritual field, he appeared directly, checked and asked a few words, and guided him to recognize the owner with a drop of blood.Yan Shiqian didn't hesitate at all in his actions.

When the blood dripped, the dull jade pendant suddenly glowed with dazzling five-color aura.He opened his eyes wide in horror, and looked at the vision in front of him in disbelief. The sword cultivator in white beside him just said lightly: "Since it is a relic of a relative, it must be a secret method. You can explore it yourself." He left without taking a second look. .

Due to the variety of spiritual roots, the spiritual energy absorbed by the five spiritual roots is mixed, and the progress of practice is slow.However, the "Hunyuan Five Elements Jue" is to mix the five elements into one, so that the spiritual energy incorporated into the body is transformed into each other, and the mixed spiritual energy becomes single and pure.

Before he entered the threshold of practice, he had many doubts.His father's realm has been at the half-step Golden Core for many years, and his mother is a mortal, and there are very few intermarriages between monks and mortals, but in his childhood impressions, his parents were harmonious and affectionate, so he didn't think too much about it. .

Today, he has an almost absurd guess: his mother is not a mortal, but a monk whose cultivation level has been sealed or her spiritual veins have been abolished.

The violent and raging spiritual energy washed over the meridians. Accompanied by an inch of bone-piercing pain, the originally weak spiritual veins gradually became tougher and opened up, and were washed away by the spiritual energy again and again. This method of building a foundation that almost reshaped the spiritual veins was a little careless. Then the spiritual vein will be damaged, and no matter how difficult it is to practice in the future, it will enter the realm again.

Yan Shiqian only felt that the severe pain made the Lingtai clearer, and he had never been so clear about what he was doing.Even with such a heaven-defying skill, his own inborn flaws still restrict his advancement. If he can't change it in one fell swoop, even if he builds a foundation smoothly at this moment, it will be useless in the long run.

I don't know how long it took, the invisible shackles in the body collapsed suddenly, and there seemed to be a clear light shining down, suddenly enlightened, the whole body was pure and not stained with dust.

There seemed to be a warm current gurgling through the spiritual veins, and the breathing of the spiritual energy gradually stabilized. Yan Shiqian let out a breath slowly, as if the depression that had been stagnant in his chest for many years was relieved, and he felt more comfortable than ever.Then he slowly opened his eyes...

The sword repairman in white in front of him stood with his hands behind his back, looking at him quietly, his gaze was still calm.

Yan Shiqian could see concern in those indifferent eyes.

"Three days to build the foundation, born with a pure body, not bad." It was just a few simple words, and there was no audible appreciation in the coldness.

Those who listened were almost in tears.

For the first time in the years since his parents left, someone treated him like this.

For two and a half years after he entered the Forgotten Return Peak, he only did simple things such as taking care of the spirit fields, but the spirit stones have never been short, and the pills and talismans in his hands are all top-grade. Only then did I realize that Bai Han had given the order.

When he first started practicing Qi, Bai Han gave him a copy of "A Preliminary Study of Swordsmanship". Later, he thought about it, how could the Patriarch of the Distraction Period carry such elementary sword formulas, and he presumably found them specially for him.

When practicing the sword art for the first time, sometimes Bai Han couldn't get the right move after practicing for a long time. Occasionally, Bai Han would see him, but he would not speak, and when he raised his hand, a wave of spiritual energy would hit him, and he would forcefully correct his movements.

Bai Han would leave for more than a month every year, and he would come to see how he was entering the country before leaving.

Bai Han seldom talked to him, and seemed to have no concern.But he can feel it.

Yan Shiqian often thought, how could he meet Bai Han and have him treat him like this.

"And come with me."

Jianxiu in white pushed the door open and walked forward step by step, neither stepping on the clouds nor using the method of shrinking the ground to an inch.The boy who followed him closely seemed to be walking steadily, but he couldn't hide the excitement and joy in his eyes.

The sound of water gradually rose, and before I knew it, I had reached Bitan under the waterfall.

There is no time in practice, and there is no age in the mountains.

Forget Return Peak is still quiet, but immature children have grown into handsome young men.

Jianxiu in white turned around and spoke slowly,

"In the past, I took you as a Taoist boy. I never thought that you would have a chance. Now that the foundation has been established, I will tell the master to choose a peak for you to apprentice."

It took more than two years to cultivate from the beginning to the foundation, even if it is placed in the inner sect, it can be regarded as a genius.Naturally, the elders of the peak master scrambled to accept him.

Yan Shiqian froze in place as if struck by lightning: Bai Han wanted to drive him away.

There was a moment of silence, only the sound of the roaring waterfall was in his ears, as if he was mocking his lack of greed, thinking that a temporary blessing would last for a long time.

"You are born with a pure body, so you are naturally a good talent for sword cultivation. If you stay here, you will miss the path." After the silence, the sword repairman in white opened his mouth lightly, as if explaining.

Hearing this, the young man suddenly knelt down, smashed a shallow pit on the ground with his knees, and completely disregarded the etiquette: "I won't go!", his voice trembling, but he said word by word,

"If I want to learn the sword, I just want to learn your sword."

The young man knelt straight, raised his head stubbornly, and looked straight at the person in front of him, his eyes were red.

Bai Han shook his head lightly, as if sighing,

"Why do you practice?"

Yan Shiqian felt an extremely gentle force supporting him, but he couldn't help but refuse.He took a deep breath, tried his best to calm down, and replied seriously,

"The pursuit of longevity, great power." There are thousands of practitioners in the world, but these two goals are always the only ones.

"If life is long, clear and boring, what's the use of longevity? If life and death are broken, pure and unfettered, what's the use of strength?"

No one has ever asked him this. He practiced for revenge, but what happens after revenge?The boy was speechless for a moment.

"Why did you come to practice Taoism?"

"Cultivating the Tao is the right way. Cultivating the devil is the evil way."

"You just said that the pursuit of power, how can there be good or evil in power? The power of nature is like water, which can breed life, irrigate farmland, flood villages, and destroy roads. Human power is like a sword. It can both do evil and eliminate evil. Mowei said. How do you choose?"

"Be kind." The young man replied without hesitation.

"What is good? What is evil? Is it good or evil that one person kills a lot of people to save the common people? Is it good or evil that one person once saved the common people but blamed the other person?"

The boy was speechless again.

"You only know that martial arts are not decisive in the world, but you don't know that killing can also carry the Tao." The white-clothed sword repairman shook his head,

"If the heart of the Tao is not firm, the Tao and the devil cannot be distinguished, and good and evil cannot be distinguished."

"As soon as you figure it out, I'll take you in." Bai Han turned around and took a step, the figure was already on the peak in the distance.

After that day, Bai Han never said anything about getting him out of the peak.But never showed up to see him.

Yan Shiqian took care of the Lingtian as usual, and went to practice swords by the pool every day, and he still practiced the book "A Preliminary Study of Swordsmanship".

It takes another half a year to practice.

If one person builds the foundation for half a year and still only knows the most basic sword skills in the early stage of Qi training, it is a matter of laughing at the death of a spirit beast in the Xuantian Sword Sect.

But if this person has only practiced for two and a half years before building the foundation, many elders would be shocked to call him a genius, rushing to take him under his seat and teach him the whole body of Dao Dharma.

After the initial vigorous discussion centered on Elder Bai that "the useless wood of the five spirit roots was adopted by Elder Bai as a Taoist boy", the Taoist boy whose name is not clear has long since faded out of everyone's sight.

Jianmen has never lacked legends and conversation materials.
