It was already winter, the wind was freezing and it seemed like it would snow at any time.
Jiang Yao looked at the gray Luofengchuan and couldn't help but think of the days at the ancient temple ruins.
For more than two years, Jiang Yao and Yu Kuan, unable to find a way out, have been hiding in the ruins of the ancient temple.
It wasn't until Jiang Yao's cultivation reached the late warrior stage that he finally summoned the Pisces Jade Pendant.
We can only give it a try. The Pisces Jade Pendant will take the two of them to unpredictable places. But Jiang Yao has no other way. He can't always stay in the ruins of the ancient temple, right?
He used up the spiritual jade given by Jiang Cai, and used up the spiritual jade and spiritual rice left by Xue Xian. Yu Kuan also finished all the edible mortal food at the site.
She now feels like vomiting when she hears honey. Even the worm chrysalis and grasshoppers roasted with ginger medicine no longer smell good.
She's had enough.
She wants to go home.
Sure enough, this time the Pisces Jade Pendant seemed to have accumulated energy again. Inspired by his spiritual consciousness, a red light flashed out and led the two people out of Fanshan Mountain.
It wasn't until he left Fanshan that Jiang Yao discovered the function of the Pisces Jade Pendant: space teleportation and even realm teleportation.
Red light is for space transmission, and white light is for interface transmission. Last time in Kunlun Mountain, it was white light, but this time it can only emit red light.
Jiang Yao still didn't know how to make the jade pendant emit white light. He vaguely sensed that a higher level of energy was needed.
However, Jiang Yao has not yet developed a method of directional teleportation, so he can only rely on random teleportation like a stroke of luck.
Moreover, it takes two or three breaths to activate the jade pendant to emit red light, and it also consumes a lot of spiritual consciousness, so it is unreliable to escape. Because within two or three breaths, the enemy is enough to kill you.
However, this jade pendant is definitely not useless.
Because ginger medicine has discovered another extremely important role: replication!
This yin-yang Pisces jade pendant seems to carry the law of yin-yang duality!
As long as you put something smaller than the jade pendant on one side of the jade pendant and stimulate it with your spiritual consciousness, blue light will appear, and then after a few breaths, the exact same thing will appear on the other side of the jade pendant.
It is a pity that each item can only be copied once, which coincides with the even number of yin and yang. Moreover, only items smaller than the jade pendant can be copied successfully.
Fortunately, the spiritual jade is just a little smaller than the jade pendant!
This discovery simply made Jiang Yao ecstatic.
This jade pendant is simply a cornucopia.
However, copying things also consumes spiritual consciousness. Cheap things are not cost-effective to copy.
Jiang Yao used the only three pieces of spiritual jade that were left and copied three more pieces.
He copied the ring, but it was unsuccessful. It should be possible to copy only a single item. If there is something stored in the ring, it cannot be copied. But the ring without storing anything should be able to copy it.
In the past two years, Jiang Yao has perfected the "brilliant" sword intention of that sword skill a lot, making it even more powerful.
Not only that, under the guidance of Yu Kuan, he also learned the sword skill "Five Elements Slash" and the boxing skill "Bangtian Hammer" left behind by Xue Xian.
Both of these combat skills are at the third level, which are considered good skills. Jiang Yao has now reached the level of Xiaocheng.
"The Great Sun Conquering Demon Sutra" is a top-level combat skill, and its true meaning is very profound. But Jiang Yao has a strong understanding and must be very qualified. In addition, Yu Kuan, who claims to be extremely talented, gave him careful guidance and gave him a superficial understanding.
.
There are three combat techniques in the "Great Sun Conquering Demon Sutra": Wuwu Mantra, Saha Finger, and Great Compassion Seal.
The five-sentence mantra of Wuwu Mantra becomes more and more difficult as it goes on. He has already learned the first and simplest mantra, the "Compassion Mantra", but he has not yet had a chance to try it as to how powerful it is.
The Saha finger only has one fingering method, but it has five levels. He has already entered the first level, which is considered the early stage of the first level. Jiang Yao has tried the power of this finger, which greatly increased his confidence.
The Great Compassion Seal also only has one mudra and the same five-level realm. Jiang Yao has also entered the simplest first level.
He also studied "The Art of War of Taimu", one of the three major military books of the Yu clan, and already had a preliminary understanding of military formations. Combined with the ancient Chinese military formations, he actually gained quite a lot of experience.
Of course, to have reached the late warrior stage in two years and mastered so many combat skills, apart from Jiang Yao's own qualifications and understanding, what's more important is Yu Kan's guidance.
Yu Kuan indeed has unparalleled talent in cultivation. Even if she loses all her cultivation, it is more than enough to give her guidance on Jiang Yao's cultivation.
In addition, she also taught Jiang Yao a lot of common sense about the real world, which seemed to be ordinary but very useful knowledge.
It can be said that after more than two years, Jiang Yao has been transformed and is no longer the rookie martial arts practitioner who knows nothing.
He is already relatively "knowledgeable".
A good teacher is extremely important, even if the teacher is a baby.
Jiang Yao and Yu Kan are not called masters and disciples, but they are definitely masters and disciples.
Similarly, Yu Kuan was taken care of and fed by Jiang Yao.
Anyway, the relationship is extremely complicated.
After more than two years, the two have long been familiar with each other and seem to be used to each other's existence. Even the snake has become familiar with Yu Yan.
The two of them and one snake stayed together for more than 800 days and nights in the extremely lonely ruins of the ancient temple.
Jiang Yao also studied the "Pharmacist Buddhist Sutra" which is a fragment of the "Shen Nong Pharmacopoeia". Under the incredible influence of the Yao Spirit Body, he actually mastered most of the contents of the "Pharmacist Buddhist Sutra".
It can be said that although Jiang Yao is still a twenty-year-old boy, he has already achieved very high attainments in the theory of medicine by relying on the medicine spirit body and the "Medicine Master Sutra". The only difference is in practice.
As long as conditions permit, he will immediately become a great pharmacist. This is not only a gift for food, but also a great opportunity from the "Medicine Master Sutra".
Therefore, although Jiang Yao was only a late-stage warrior, he was full of confidence and full of unprecedented longing for the world.
His biggest worry now is the hidden danger that the road foundation may collapse at any time.
Jiang Cai once said that within two or three years, Daoji would probably collapse, and he would become a cripple at worst, or lose his life at worst. Even if Daoji did not collapse within two or three years, it would definitely collapse within three to five years.
In other words, he may be finished at any time, and he will be finished in two years at most.
If Jiang Yao hadn't undergone many drastic changes, his mind was clear and his character was open-minded, his mentality would have collapsed long ago.
What he was most worried about at this time was not that he would die at any time, but what would happen to Yu Kuan if he died.
As a de facto medicine man, he already knew how to treat Doji collapse.
However, he needs three kinds of spiritual herbs to prepare the medicinal liquid, one of which is a spiritual grass of up to level seven, which is very expensive and ordinary martial arts practitioners cannot afford it in their lifetime.
But the Pisces jade pendant gave him financial confidence.
More than two years of hard study and a nine-headed dragon gave him the courage to face this cruel world, even if he could die at any time.
Although Yu Yan is three years old, according to martial arts training rules, he can only start training when he is five years old. Otherwise, his foundation will be damaged.
It would take more than two years before she could practice again.
She also knew that Jiang Yaodaoji was about to collapse, but there was nothing she could do.
They were teleported to the Western Region, which was too far away from the Central Region. She could not return to the Yu clan, so she would not be able to help Jiang Yao. Otherwise, she could quickly get hold of not only the seventh-level spiritual herbs, but also the top-level eighth-level herbs.
She was also very afraid of what would happen to her if the ginger medicine was gone.
Yu Kuan lay on Jiang Yao's back, looking at the poisonous snake on the snake staff, her heart full of worry.
The Nine-headed Yuanhui can understand human speech, and it also knows that its master's Daoji is about to collapse, so its green snake eyes are also worried at this time.
The young man carried the little girl on his back and carried the snake staff to the ferry.
Anyway, let’s cross the river first and go to Qinghuang City.
"Two people crossed the river, four pieces of spiritual jade." The young sailor on the boat said coldly. Judging from his cultivation, he was a middle-level warrior.
Originally, when facing Jiang Yao, a late-stage warrior, he should have smiled. However, Jiang Yao's expression was so downcast, which made him feel contemptuous, so he greeted her coldly.
Besides, he is a member of the C-class martial arts clan. He is a regular martial arts cultivator who earns a salary, not a casual cultivator who makes a living by himself.
And this young man with a snake staff is obviously a helpless casual cultivator.
There are many loose cultivators, but there are very few who look like this. Which loose cultivator is so poor that he doesn’t even have real clothes?
Jiang Yao gritted his teeth secretly when he heard the four pieces of spiritual jade.
How cruel.
Taking a little girl across the river requires four pieces of spiritual jade!
There are only six pieces left in his body, three of which are duplicates.
"Fellow Taoist, she is still a child, can you save the shipping fee? You see, I am carrying her on my back and does not take up any space." Jiang Yao said with a smile.
Money is important to them now.
"No! Don't take a boat if you don't have money. You can use wind control to cross the river. Maybe you'll be lucky and won't be swallowed by the crack in the sky. You can also swim across, and maybe you'll be lucky and the river demon will let you go.
"
The sailor in the martial arts official uniform made sarcastic remarks.
Jiang Yao stopped talking nonsense. He silently took out four pieces of spiritual jade, handed them to the other party and started to board the ship.
"Slow down!" the sailor stopped him, "This is our merchant ship, and everyone on board must register their names!"
Jiang Yao said with an indifferent expression: "Ouyang Feng."
