After hearing what his apprentice said, Master Mingzong seemed very happy: "So you have found the wood spirit?"

"Well, it was a wisp of light green mist." Zheng Qiu scratched his head and recalled the details he had just seen. "It spotted it before I even touched it. It ran so fast that I couldn't keep up."

Master Mingzong grabbed a pen and paper and excitedly recorded what his apprentice said. After recording, he read the content analysis on the paper.

"You can actually run away on your own and run so fast. It seems that the wood spirit is more active than before. Hmm... It's not good if you can't catch it all the time. You have to find a way."

Zheng Qiu thought for a while and asked: "Master, I just saw that my meridians were very blurry and dark. I can't see clearly. Is this the reason why I can't grasp them?"

"This is the first time you have entered a state of introspection. If you can see the meridians, it means that you still have the understanding of cultivation. The higher your cultivation level is in the future, the clearer this introspection will be."

After saying that, Master Mingzong said that today's class was over, and asked Zheng Qiu to go back to Fangcao Pavilion, while he himself flipped through books, searched for scriptures, and thought about ways to catch the "wood spirit".

The next day, two porcelain bottles were placed on the table in front of Zheng Qiu. One of the porcelain bottles had no smell, and the other porcelain bottle kept emitting a fishy smell of sweat. Master Ming Zong told him that the tasteless porcelain bottle contained locks.

The air is condensing, and the smelly porcelain bottle is filled with bitter orchid grass juice.

According to the master's opinion, the Qi-locking gel has a miraculous effect on blocking Qi Jin. Since the "wood spirit" travels through the meridians in the form of Qi Jin, the Qi-locking gel is useful. Zheng Qiu drinks a drop of Qi-locking gel first, and then another drop.

The bitter orchid activates the medicinal effect of Qi-locking gel, which should be able to lock the "wood spirit".

In accordance with the master's request, Zheng Qiu drank the Qi-locking gel and the grass juice of the bitter orchid, closed his eyes and recited the incantations to meditate. This time the meditation was faster than the first time. After Zheng Qiu entered a state of introspection, he looked around for hidden things in his body.

The wood spirit inside.

About two hours later, Zheng Qiu's body began to shake again, and soon he fell out of the introspection state, with a frustrated expression on his face.

"Master, I still didn't catch it!"

Master Ming Zong drank the tea slowly, not in any hurry. He glanced at the porcelain bottle on the table and said: "It doesn't matter, you have a rest first, and drink two drops next time. If two drops are not enough, add more."

Master Ming Zong clearly remembered that in the cave, the "wood spirit" pushed out the energy he had penetrated into Zheng Qiu's meridians, but after it was pushed out, the "wood spirit" immediately hid it back, apparently without any remaining strength.

At that time, he was using the cultivation level of Qi Condensation Realm, so Zheng Qiu's "wood spirit" power could never reach the level of Qi Hua Realm. Now there is a full bottle of Qi Locking Condensation Dew here, five of them

Even if he couldn't bear the Qi Hua realm, he didn't believe that this "wood spirit" could change the world.

Every time Zheng Qiu failed, he would drink one more drop of Qi-locking Gel, three drops, four drops, five drops... When he drank twelve drops, the "wood spirit" finally stopped moving.

It floated quietly in the meridians at the shoulder, winding into a spiral shape, similar to the shape Zheng Qiu saw for the first time.

Zheng Qiu moved his eyes and slowly approached the wisp of fog. The fog grew larger and larger in his field of vision, and a clear sense of contact suddenly came. In the introspective state, what he saw was the inside of the body, and his hands were clearly outside the body.

Where does the sense of contact come from?

Zheng Qiu couldn't tell the reason, but he didn't have time to think about these weird questions. He had to catch this "wood spirit". Catch, catch! He kept chanting this word in his head, and soon the feeling of contact occurred.

It changed and became a feeling of being caught on cotton.

Zheng Qiu's intuition told him that he had caught it!

Master Ming Zong has warned that the next step is particularly critical, which is to subdue the "wood spirit" and make it obedient.

Surrender is a method for practitioners to capture wild beasts and snatch other people's magic weapons and weapons. It is not difficult to say, but it is easy to say that it is not easy. The essence is to use one's own spirit to suppress the spirit of the surrendered object and force the surrendered object to obey.

Order.

In the process of surrender, the cultivator must be highly concentrated. If he is distracted, he may fail to surrender, or he may be backlashed by the object of surrender, resulting in damage to his intelligence.

Therefore, after catching a wild beast or grabbing a magic weapon, a practitioner will choose a safe and secluded place to surrender, and will never do it on the spot.

Surrendering also requires skills. Each major sect has its own formulas and secret methods. Even people of different realms have different ways of surrendering.

As for Zheng Qiu, Master Mingzong told him that as long as he kept shouting to the "wood spirit" in his heart, "You are mine, listen to my orders". The key is that Zheng Qiu himself must take this sentence as true, so that he can concentrate

The spirit has an effect.

"Listen to my orders...Listen to my orders..." Zheng Qiu stared at the light green mist in front of him and kept shouting in his heart. Along with the shouts from the bottom of his heart, his spirit rushed towards the "wood spirit" like waves, each time

Every wave carries Zheng Qiu's thoughts, trying to penetrate into the mist.

Keep shouting, keep shouting, the mist is like a boulder in the river, motionless. You can't give up at this time, giving up is equivalent to starting from scratch.

Zheng Qiu struggled to concentrate and put all his thoughts on the mist in front of him. He shouted and shouted again. Only himself and this mist were left in his world.

Slowly, he forgot about himself. The mist in front of him seemed to be himself, and he should blend into the mist.

The light green mist gradually filled in, covering his sight. He felt more comfortable and relaxed than ever before. The wave of shouting also disappeared, and sleepiness enveloped him. Sleeping here should be the happiest thing.

Master Mingzong kept paying attention to Zheng Qiu. Zheng Qiu shook, which was a sign that he had found the "wood spirit". Then the shaking stopped, and Zheng Qiu did not wake up from the state of introspection, which meant that the "wood spirit" had been caught.

, what follows is the process of surrender.

Beads of sweat emerged one by one from Zheng Qiu's forehead and flowed down the bridge of his nose and cheeks. Master Ming Zong knew that this was the apprentice concentrating on suppressing the "wood spirit".

Time goes by, the sun sets, the moon shines on the earth, the moon disappears into the mountains, and the sun rises again. Zheng Qiu is still sitting cross-legged, his clothes are as wet as if they were fished out of the river, and beads of sweat are still emerging on his forehead.

Master Mingzong was a little anxious. He touched his beard and pulled his hair. It had been a whole night, but there was still no movement.

At this moment, he noticed a relieved smile on his apprentice's face, it was a success!

No, that's not right! Ming Zong's hand that was about to hold the water glass froze in mid-air. His smile was abnormal and had a sense of stupidity. He rushed to Zheng Qiu and opened his eyelids to check. Oh no, the brilliance in his pupils was blurred. This was

The phenomenon of spiritual backlash.

Master Mingzong hurriedly practiced his skills. In an instant, his pupils flashed with fluorescence, but it was not enough. He continued to improve his skills, and an earthy yellow light spot lit up between his eyebrows.

Then, he stretched out his finger, tapped the light spot between his eyebrows, tapped his throat again, then activated his energy, and shouted loudly: "Zheng Qiu, wake up!"
Chapter completed!
