Chapter 123 The Power of the Sky Tower
Traveling quickly, Li Xiuyuan walked around the Great Wall and finally stood under the tower.
Looking up at the Sky Tower towering under the stars, Li Xiuyuan's eyes suddenly felt like he was too hungry to speak, and his whole body felt weak.
He did not dare to meditate on the spot and absorb the yin and yang power from the Sky Tower. He just looked up at the stars, making it look like he was deeply shocked.
From time to time, some of the monks passing by turned back to look at Li Xiuyuan, their eyes as if they were looking at a child who had never seen the world since he came to the countryside.
He sighed with regret. "The Sky Tower is indeed so great that all newcomers will be shocked."
Another monk laughed and said: "This is a complete country bumpkin. Is this tower so beautiful?"
Quietly feeling the yin and yang power of heaven and earth spreading from the tower, slowly entering his body through his eyes, Li Xiuyuan felt a secret joy.
It's okay, you can laugh at me, I don't mind.
He decided to stay in the Great Wall quietly and come here every day to absorb the yin and yang spiritual energy needed to replenish his body. Maybe his pupils would be able to return to their previous color in a few years.
Or you can use this delusion-breaking eye to study the books of Teacher Di Guiguzi and learn more runes.
He did not dare to stay too long. After staying near the tower for half an hour, he felt his eyes swelling and pain. Li Xiuyuan quickly turned around and left, speeding towards Guiguzi's residence.
He was still far away from the tower, but it took him less than half a year to replenish the yin and yang power his body needed.
What if we get closer? Will it be faster?
Li Xiuyuan, who had already left Ertiao Street, looked back at the Sky Tower in the sky, and felt a faint ray of yin and yang power from heaven.
Yin and Yang give birth to all things. It seems that the Sky Tower is the vitality of the Great Wall?
Thinking of this, Li Xiuyuan couldn't help but be frightened, thinking that he should not easily come here to absorb it in the future, otherwise he would not know how much trouble it would cause if someone discovered it.
After running all the way and returning to Guiguzi's small courtyard, Chen Guangming had already left.
Gui Guzi looked at Li Xiuyuan who walked into the living room and asked: "How about it? Can the power of yin and yang in your body be supplemented through the Sky Tower, or do we need to think of other ways?"
Thinking about his thoughts along the way, Li Xiuyuan sighed in shock: "I'm afraid that absorbing too much will affect the vitality of the Great Wall. I will have to go less often in the future. I don't want others to notice me!"
Guiguzi thought for a while, looked up at him and said, "It shouldn't have much impact, but it's better to go less often if it's not necessary in the future. It would be a headache for them to really cause trouble."
Even Guiguzi would rather do more than do less, because this is the Great Wall.
"As soon as you left, Chen Guangming came to find you."
Thinking of Chen Guangming's incredible and surprised look, Master couldn't help but laugh.
Looking at the expression on Guiguzi's face, Li Xiuyuan asked in surprise: "Does General Chen have anything to do with me? It's only the second day, isn't he too impatient?"
The master shook his head, looked at him and murmured: "Drink tea, and then go back to study your runes later. Now that your physical strength has been replenished, I want to see your progress today."
"I will! Try to reduce it to ten cards tomorrow and five cards the day after tomorrow! How is the progress?"
Li Xiuyuan looked at Guiguzi's surprised look and asked seriously.
When Guiguzi heard this, he looked at him weakly and said, "It would be a hell if you could really do it." He thought of Chen Guangming's incredible appearance again, shook his head and laughed.
Li Xiuyuan looked at him and said seriously: "I want to try."
Looking up at Li Xiuyuan, Guiguzi said, "How long do you think it will take you to finish reading the books I gave you?"
"According to my previous cultivation level, it would take almost a year to finish reading Teacher's book."
Li Xiuyuan pointed to the eyes behind his mask and said, "But I found that after activating these eyes, it only takes a month to read the teacher's books."
"Is it so magical?" Guiguzi stroked his beard and said quietly: "Do you know how much time and effort I spent to read these books?"
"Because I am different from you, teacher?" Li Xiuyuan laughed.
"What's the difference? Do you mean that with these eyes, you are a hundred times more powerful than my teacher?" Guiguzi naturally wouldn't believe this, and it didn't make sense.
Li Xiuyuan slowly lowered his head and said softly: "You are an eagle in the sky, take a bite if you want. I am a rabbit running for my life on the ground. If I don't run as fast as I can, my life will be in danger."
Seeing Li Xiuyuan's critical appearance and thinking of Chen Guangming's appearance, Guiguzi nodded subconsciously.
Li Ye continued: "Teacher regards the Tao of Talismans as a lifelong pursuit, and I am now anxious to cast the talisman arrows I imagined. How can I dare to be lazy when I am in a hurry? I can only risk my life like that rabbit."
The master looked at his haggard face and said: "Drink two cups of tea, go back to the house and rest for a while, then take your time and look at it. Since you have entered the Tao of Talisman, don't be anxious."
Li Xiu chuckled and said, "I'm not in a hurry, but there are people who are more anxious than me."
"Don't discuss this issue with me. I just told Chen Guangming not to rush you. You are now my only disciple, Guiguzi."
Guiguzi looked at him and said jokingly.
Li Xiuyuan wanted to laugh when he heard this, but shook his head tiredly.
After drinking two courses of tea with his master, Li Xiuyuan sighed, said goodbye to Gui Guzi, and walked back to his room.
Looking at Li Ye's back, Guiguzi said to himself: "If you only spend ten runes tomorrow, no one on the entire Great Wall will be your opponent."
Are you kidding? If you can write runes in one day, you can double the strength of the fire charms the next day. Even Guiguzi's master back then could not do it at this speed.
...
When Li Xiuyuan returned to the house, he lay on the bed and meditated. Yesterday, he exhausted too much physical energy. Whether it was studying various rune manuals or copying fire talismans all night long, he spent too much energy.
Think about it, I won’t do such stupid things in the future.
This is within the Great Wall. If you exhaust your physical strength in the wild land outside the Great Wall, you may have to wait for death. After all, it is the world of the wild people.
After sleeping until Shenshi, Li Xiuyuan got up, sat at the table and started studying Guiguzi's book.
In front of me, I must first master the flame runes, and then learn the explosive runes while casting arrows. If I can engrave these two runes on an arrow...
Li Xiuyuan couldn't imagine. Should it burn first or explode first? Or should he learn a delay talisman by himself? Or forge two different talisman arrows, one with burning runes and the other with explosive runes.
He had already seen him holding an iron bow and shooting out the talisman arrows, and the explosion and burning sounds were heard on the wall of Guiguzi's courtyard.
If I have some free time later and learn to engrave the light spirit talisman on the sword, will it have a special effect?
Li Xiuyuan, who was holding the book, had the power of black and white in his eyes, like a ray of divine light shining through the thick books one after another.
He was afraid of scaring Guiguzi. Judging from the situation in front of him, he would only need ten days to read through these rune books one by one.
From now on, he only needs to understand it thoroughly. The rune manual read through the Eye of Delirium has been deeply imprinted in his divine sea.
On this day, Li Xiuyuan, with his black and white eyes wide open, read three thick books from Shen Shi to Xu Shi, and seemed to have found the reason for the lack of yesterday's runes.
Then take out the cinnabar and grind the pine ink. When the ink and cinnabar are mixed into the same color, reach out and pick up a stick of wolf hair, and slowly dip it into the inkstone.
With the experience last night, I felt much calmer tonight. The fairy spirit energy in the Dantian passed through the Ren meridian and went to the Du meridian, like a stream converging on the wolf hair on the fingertips.
Lifting the pen and coming out of the inkstone, the pen falling onto the yellow paper, the pen moves like a dragon and a snake.
From the time of Xu to the time of Hai, I couldn't stop writing as soon as I started writing, and wrote more than thirty pieces in one night.
He put away his pen and opened the door. It was already midnight in the moonlight. With a wave of his hand, a flame talisman flew into the night sky. In the blink of an eye, a flame burned in the sky.
Even though he was a little far away, he could still feel the heat hitting his face.
Finally, I have lived up to the teacher's expectations, and I can start making arrows in two days.
Special runes naturally require a special arrow body to withstand it, and he couldn't wait any longer.
...
The moon sets and the stars set, and a new day begins.
Li Xiuyuan only brought eleven runes to Guiguzi's living room today. He was confident that he could use the fire charms in his heart to boil a pot of water for his teacher and drink two cups of tea before going to the Sky Tower.
Gui Guzi, who had already prepared something, reached out and took the fire talisman handed over by Li Xiuyuan and stuffed it into the stove. Hearing a "boom!", a raging flame rose from the stove.
"Yes, are you going to give me a big shock?"
Looking at the flames in the stove, Guiguzi stroked his beard and laughed, wondering why that guy didn't come over to ask for tea today? Otherwise, let him see the progress of his disciple.
It should be said that it was extremely fast. In just two days, Li Xiuyuan's fire talisman burned from the ground to mid-air. Will it burn to the sky tomorrow?
Without stopping, Li Xiuyuan stuffed the talismans written last night into the stove one by one. As the temperature in the living room increased, the water in the pot also made a whining sound.
Li Xiuyuan looked down and couldn't help laughing.
The result of the second day's practice was that he only spent nine talismans to boil a pot of water.
Looking at the two runes left on the table, Gui Guzi trembled, looked at Li Xiuyuan and asked, "Are you so confident in yourself? Do you know that you only need nine runes?"
Li Xiuyuan shook his head, looked at him and replied quietly: "Teacher, I have prepared eleven..."
Gui Guzi sighed and said quietly: "You must know that the progress of Talisman Dao, even if it is one and a half sheets per month, is already legendary. Do you want to shock the world with one Talisman?"
Liu Xiuyuan shook his head and replied softly: "I never thought about it. I just want to create a talisman arrow for General Chen within the agreed time, so that the dirty blood will no longer corrode the Great Wall."
The water was boiling to make tea. Guiguzi, who was so happy, poured hot tea into the cup, put it down and took a sniff.
"Today's heat is just right, but yesterday's was still a little less interesting because the water was not warm enough." After taking a sip, Guiguzi said with a smile.
Li Xiuyuan picked up the cup and took a sip. He looked up at Guiguzi and said, "Teacher, do you think I can use only five talismans tomorrow?"
Guiguzi trembled and said loudly: "You want to go to heaven!"
"Disciple is not that ambitious. I just want to forge arrows." Li Xiuyuan shook his head and said, "This is my promise to General Chen. I don't want him to call me a liar."
Guiguzi stared at Li Xiuyuan and said with a smile: "How dare he? I'll skin him."
"I'm afraid he will scold me for hiding under your wings, teacher, and not going to experience outside the Great Wall. After all, several friends who came with me have already left for the wilderness."
Li Xiuyuan felt a little uneasy when he thought of Zhao Ping'an and Chen Shanshan. He wondered how the two were doing in the wilderness? Were they harmed? Can they escape the assassination of the deserters?
After Guiguzi was silent for a long time, he replied seriously: "What you do is different from them. If you can make the talisman arrows, you can reduce casualties for the four legions. This is not just a contribution to his Qinglong Army."
Li Xiuyuan was silent for a moment.
Gui Guzi then said: "Since you like it, you should stick to it. Let the boy named Chen see how a person who is truly obsessed with Talismanism can create an earth-shattering Talisman arrow."
"I'm also very much looking forward to it. As long as my requirements are met tomorrow, I will start casting arrows the day after tomorrow. While studying the runes, I will also study how to engrave the runes on the arrows."
Li Xiuyuan looked at the old man in front of him and silently warned himself: "Li Xiuyuan, you can't give up!"
