Chapter 20 Dead End
In the distant horizon, the sun has begun to set, and night is about to usher in.
The light and dust have long since dispersed with the wind.
Lin Lan was silent for a long time, and then she calmed down the surging emotions in her heart.
I haven't felt this way for a long time.
However, now he knows better what he should do.
——Everything in the past is a prologue.
"Go well."
Lin Lan looked at the place where the Demonic Master disappeared, only a silver treasure bag, a black sandalwood bottle, and a book with a black cover were left.
He stepped forward and picked up these three relics.
The treasure bag has a knotted seal that cannot be opened without any force.
The black sandalwood bottle contained the elixir of anti-elimination, which Master Demon had shown him once before.
The book with a black cover says "The Method of Earthly Inheritance and Metallurgy", which is a method of refining qi.
When chatting a few days ago, the Demonic Master said that everyone's physique is a mixture of the five elements, but the proportions of the five elements are different, so the efficiency of practicing different methods is also different.
If there is a suitable method, the efficiency may be several times faster, and it is also very easy to get started. It can take as fast as ten days and a half, or as slow as several months.
But if it is an inappropriate method, you may not be able to enter it for a year and a half.
As for Lin Lan's physique, Master Motian has already seen it. Among the five elements, it has two elements: metal and earth. Therefore, the Qi training method suitable for practicing should be one based on the two elements of metal and earth.
This "Earth-Inherited Metallurgical Method" is based on the two qi of metal and earth, so it is naturally very suitable for him.
but--
"The most suitable one for me is the Heaven Stealing Technique in Tianyuan Villa..."
Lin Lan slowly closed his eyes and recalled the Dharma written on the stone wall in his mind.
Since it is said to be the most suitable for stealing heaven and is unique, it shouldn’t be difficult to practice, right?
He recalled the content of this Dharma in his mind, and subconsciously followed the visualization and mental methods, and his thoughts moved according to his heart.
Just after going through the method in his mind, he felt that deep inside his body, there was a secret place that had been closed since birth, and it was slowly vibrating. It seemed that he could open it with just a little operation of the method.
"Dharma door?"
Lin Lan opened her eyes and walked towards the cave.
step.
Two steps.
Three steps.
When he reached the entrance of the cave, his eyes suddenly glowed with a strange light, and then he lurked again.
"Getting started?"
Lin Lan could already feel a wisp of Qi beginning to circulate in Tanzhong Point. Following a wonderful method, it began to circulate in the body and gradually traveled throughout the body.
Three steps to open the door!
Lin Lan was not surprised at all. He only felt that his mind was clear and his soul seemed to be in a silent environment without any fluctuations. It was just that his body was a little tired and his walking was destroying this feeling of tranquility, making him want to lie down right there.
.
He understood clearly in his heart: "Is this the meaning of tranquility?"
He remembered that the words on the stone wall said that this method was very easy to refine Qi and contained supreme purity and tranquility. It was of great help to the innate magical powers. It could also stabilize the Taoist mind and magical powers, and it could also promote the transformation of the innate magical powers.
However, he is just opening the Dharma door now, and there is no need for Jingjing Yi for the time being.
But it’s amazing how easy it is to get started.
Lin Lan didn't know if there was anyone faster than him in the history of the cultivation world, but the Demon Master claimed that it took him five days to open the method, and he was praised by the master as a genius for refining qi.
So what does it mean to open a Dharma door in three steps?
Lin Lan also knew that the reason why he was so fast was not only because of his high talent, but also a large part of the reason because of the magic of the Heaven Stealer's method.
However, just being able to refine Qi quickly doesn’t mean much.
According to his understanding, the magic power formed by refining Qi does not represent Taoism in this world. It can only determine how many times spells and magical powers are cast.
To use the popular explanation from the past life, it is ‘blue quantity’.
For the true Taoist practice, Taoists look at talismans, inner elixirs, thunder methods, etc., Buddhists look at the realm of Buddhism, Demon sects look at various demonic powers, and Human sects also look at natal supernatural powers.
In layman’s terms, it’s ‘skill’.
"It takes a hundred years of mana to breathe, but now you still have to rely on yourself."
Lin Lan walked towards the cave, letting the mana flow to every corner of his body. He opened the wooden bottle, stuffed a 'hundred grain pill' for fasting into his mouth, chewed it up and swallowed it.
The taste is average.
However, ordinary people do not need to eat for three days, which is indeed much better than compressed biscuits.
By the time Lin Lan walked to the stone gate of Tianyuan Villa, the ray of magic power had grown a lot, almost flowing through his whole body, and began to flow towards his last head.
This process is the second step in opening the Dharma door, commonly known as "changing the Dharma body", so that the whole body can retain the Dharma power. In this way, when the Dharma power fills the whole body in the future, the physical Dharma method can be practiced, and then the life span can be increased.
Generally speaking, if this process goes smoothly, it will take about several months.
But since he can open the door in three steps, this process naturally cannot take so long.
"Um?"
Just as this ray of magic flowed through his mind, Lin Lan felt a splitting headache and couldn't help but stop and frown.
Deep in my mind, something seemed to be changing.
Immediately, he had a glimmer of realization that his ability to "foresee the outcome" began to change.
He still remembered the preface of this method and specifically mentioned this. This method is most suitable for sky thieves and can promote the transformation of the heaven thieves' innate magical powers.
It is also mentioned in the follow-up methods that after the first transformation of the innate magical power, a more distant ending can be seen.
Originally, it was just a prediction of the ending that would happen within the next ten days and a half. After the first transformation, this time distance will increase a lot.
After just a few breaths, the severe headache began to subside.
"it's over?"
Lin Lan rubbed his temples to relieve the remaining headache.
Suddenly, a familiar sense of trance emerged, and then a small memory appeared in my mind.
In the illusory picture——
He looked up and saw a huge tsunami covering the sky and the sun, as if the Milky Way was toppling over, crashing towards him, and he could faintly see a huge snake's tail sweeping across the water.
At the same time, a woman's sigh that seemed to be mixed with hissing snake sounds seemed to echo throughout the whole world: "Rest in peace, junior brother, I will also come to pay homage to you during next year's Lantern Festival."
Immediately, the monstrous tsunami completely submerged him and plunged him into darkness.
…
"Is this... my end?"
Lin Lan couldn't help but fell silent as he recalled the scene he had just predicted.
Is it a dead end so soon?
This ability to predict the outcome had just transformed, and he saw his own death. Apparently because after the transformation of this ability, the visible future became more distant, so he immediately discovered his own death.
The destiny cannot be violated.
It has been confirmed many times.
Dying?
Lin Lan was stunned for a while, then suddenly laughed at himself, and couldn't help but shake his head slightly, "I just promised Master that I would climb up and be the best in the world, and in the blink of an eye, I saw my own demise?
This is really a trick of fate..."
Judging from the scene at the end, we don’t know how terrible the person who killed him was, that he could actually set off such a terrifying tsunami to kill him?
Since he is called junior brother, it should be his fellow senior sister?
Moreover, he also said that he would pay homage to him during next year's Lantern Festival.
That means the anniversary of his death is the Lantern Festival.
Judging from the article on the Heaven Stealer's Method, the predicted ending after the first transformation can be seen that the most distant ending is within a year and a half at most.
Then his fate will definitely be the next Lantern Festival.
"It's August seventeenth now."
Lin Lan thought silently, "There are less than five months until Lantern Festival... five months?"
