Shen Lang, a cat, a rabbit, a small fish, and a small skeleton gathered around the five-color round well, looking at the "Wind King Orb" suspended above the well mouth.
The little fish rested its two pectoral fins on the edge of the urn, stuck its head out of the urn's mouth, and asked hesitantly:
"Such a big bead...can a cat really eat it? Are you sure it won't burst?"
The little rabbit twitched his ears and said softly:
"Rabbit also feels a little hung up. The beads are too big, and the cat is too small."
Xiao Gu said nothing, only nodded his chin in agreement.
The cat stared at the bead with dazzled eyes, its mouth slightly open, almost drooling from the corner of its mouth, and murmured:
"I can swallow it, I can definitely swallow it..."
Shen Lang looked at the cat, then at the beads, with a hesitant look on his face:
"Xiao Zhao, this bead is even smaller than your head, how are you going to swallow it?"
Xiao Zhao is full of confidence:
"Of course, take one bite and swallow it whole."
As we all know, although a cat looks like a small cherry mouth, its mouth can actually open very wide, so Xiao Zhao has great confidence in himself.
Shen Lang: "But your throat doesn't seem to be that thick..."
Xiaoyu: "Why don't you dip it in some soy sauce, or wrap it in some honey or lard to lubricate it?"
Rabbit: "I think it tastes better when dipped in vinegar."
Small bones: [First coat them in flour, fry them, and then roll them in frosting sugar. They are delicious. 】
Xiaoyu: "Wow, this way of eating sounds delicious. I have to ask Shen Lang to make snacks this way."
Tuji: "But this is too greasy, and Tuji doesn't like it. People still like cold vegetables, so at most put a little vegetable oil on it."
Small bones: [rabbit, can you eat it? Is it spicy? If you can eat spicy food, yes, use minced garlic, shredded ginger, radish skin, add rice wine, vinegar, put aside a little, sugar, a little salt, marinate it, it’s delicious.
...Unfortunately, there is no chili...]
Xiaoyu: "Hey, don't you have any chili in Dongtu?"
Xiaogu: [No, no?]
Rabbit: "Probably not. I've never eaten chili pepper."
Xiaoyu: "What a pity. I still want to eat boiled fish fillets. If there is no chili, the boiled fish won't have the same taste."
Rabbit: "It's so scary, you actually eat fish!"
Xiao Yu: "How fresh! As we fish makers, don't we all have big fish eating small fish? Then you mammals also hunt each other!"
Shen Lang's head is full of black lines:
"I asked, why are you talking about food all of a sudden? Aren't we discussing how Xiao Zhao should swallow this bead?"
Xiaoyu: "I already told you, dip it in soy sauce, or wrap it in honey or lard."
Rabbit: "Dip in vinegar."
Small bones: [coated in flour, fried, then rolled in frosting sugar.]
Shen Lang: "..."
Xiao Zhao: "Ah woo!"
Well, when the little monsters talked wildly and the corners of Shen Lang's head and mouth were cramped, Xiao Zhao finally couldn't hold it in anymore. A hungry tiger pounced on the food, opened his mouth to the limit, bit the Wind King Orb in one bite, then raised his neck and swallowed it hard.
…
Under the horrified gazes of Shen Lang, Xiaoyu, Tuji, and Xiaogu, Xiao Zhao actually swallowed the Wind King Orb with just one gulp!
When the beads slid down the cat's throat, Shen Lang and Xiaoyu could clearly see that Xiao Zhao's neck had been bulged by the beads, making it almost thicker than its head.
Shen Lang was frightened at that time.
With your neck stretched like this, what if you really have to forcefully swallow it into your stomach?
But before he reached out to grab Xiao Zhao, pinched its neck and squeezed out the beads, Xiao Zhao's neck quickly returned to normal, and it looked like it had swallowed the beads into its belly, but its small body,
It looked like nothing was out of the ordinary.
Under the dumbfounded gazes of Shen Lang, Xiaoyu, Tuji, and Xiaogu, Xiao Zhao burped, patted his belly with his little paw, and smiled proudly:
"Okay, let's eat it! Burp...so full..."
Xiaoyu’s eyes widened in disbelief:
"Really, I really ate it..."
Little Rabbit also raised his ears, with a frightened look on his face:
"Carnivores are scary!"
Xiao Gu looked like he was ready to move, as if he wanted to bring the cat over and carefully examine its belly.
Shen Lang paid close attention to Xiao Zhao's condition and found that it was actually safe, and then he breathed a sigh of relief.
In fact, if you think about it carefully, he was too concerned before and got confused.
After all, Xiao Zhao can usually eat five to six kilograms of large fish and meat in one meal, and his stomach is simply a bottomless dimensional bag.
Although the Wind King Orb was swallowed whole, in terms of volume, it was much smaller than the five or six kilograms of large fish and meat.
Since Xiao Zhao successfully swallowed the beads without getting stuck in his throat, it must be okay.
At this time, Xiao Zhao yawned again and said hastily:
"Meow is about to start refining the orb. He may have to sleep for several days. Don't worry..."
After saying that, he lay down by the well, curled up his little body into a ball, and fell asleep in a second.
While it was sleeping, its belly rose and fell slightly, emitting a faint whistle of wind.
There are also traces of white airflow in front of the nose, which circulates back and forth between its mouth and nose as it breathes.
The little demons in the second level of psychic realm can communicate with the world and the world at any time when walking, sitting, lying down, and playing, and their skills can operate on their own, increasing their cultivation level bit by bit.
At this time, Xiao Zhao was running the "White Emperor Mysterious Skill" independently while sleeping, refining the Wind King Orb.
"Refining has begun!" Xiaoyu said in an envious tone:
"When it wakes up, the cat will probably be the strongest one among us. It is usually very proud, but now it wants to go to heaven? Shen Lang, Shen Lang, can you find me a dragon ball sometime?
Huh? If you don’t have dragon beads, dragon beads will do!”
Shen Lang smiled and said:
"Don't worry, if I find a treasure that matches yours in the future, I will definitely give it to you for use. Okay, if you don't want Xiao Zhao to be too arrogant, everyone should hurry up and practice."
The little fish swung its tail and jumped into the five-color round well - Little Moon no longer needed to use all her strength to consume the divine imprint in the Wind King Pearl, and could produce Emperor Ooze again. The little fish naturally wanted to return to the well to practice.
Xiaoya jumped back to the medicine garden, squatted quietly among the elixirs, with her eyes half open and half closed, breathing in the energy of various elixirs, practicing the "Qing Emperor's Secret of Immortality".
Xiaogu also returned to the corner where he practiced daily, put the hundred-forged black iron sword on his knees, and meditated to practice the "Yama Suppressing Prison Technique".
Shen Lang also continued to meditate and practice contemplation.
After visualizing for an hour, he began to practice magic again.
His mental power has long been equivalent to that of a sixth-grade monk, and he has long been able to practice sixth-grade spells. However, he did not have Taoist secrets before, so he had no cultivation skills, but could not practice them.
After getting the Buddhist True Secret Scroll, I finally have a sixth-grade spell to practice. Although limited by the length, there is only one sixth-grade spell in the Buddhist True Secret Scroll, but it is still better than nothing.
However, sixth-grade spells cannot be quickly achieved with "Earth Lotus Stone Milk", and they can only construct spell runes by themselves.
After Shen Lang hid in the space, even if he was distracted by contemplating thoughts and cultivating his inner strength, it only took him six days to successfully construct this sixth-grade spell called "Tianlong Curse".
Now that he is practicing this technique, he is just improving his spell-casting proficiency and shortening the time of making spells and holding spells as much as possible.
After practicing for a while, I started practicing martial arts again.
Speaking of which, Buddhism’s authentic exercises are really interesting.
Most of the spells in that true secret scroll can be turned into martial arts moves.
A series of palm techniques, such as the powerful grabbing hand, the powerful monument throwing hand, the powerful Vajra palm, and the Prajna palm, can all be turned into martial arts moves.
Demon-slaying shovels, demon-subduing pestles, wood-burning knives, etc. can be turned into weapon techniques.
The lion's roar can also be transformed into sound wave power driven by internal force and true energy.
Iron shirts, golden bells, indestructible bodies, etc. can also be used to practice hard skills.
Of course, this does not mean that Buddhist monks can practice both law and martial arts.
Martial arts and magic are two different paths.
Even if the moves have the same name, the key points of the mental method are completely different whether they are practiced or performed. On the magic side, the soul is used to leverage the inspiration of the world, shape spells, and exert power. On the martial arts side, one can only rely on one's own flesh and blood, muscles, bones, and internal energy.
Furthermore, the same move, such as the "Powerful Vajra Palm", on the martial arts side, even if it is activated by the internal force of the sixth-grade Dacheng level, the power is far less than that of the seventh-grade spell.
After all, one borrows the power of heaven and earth, and the other relies purely on oneself. How can a small and fragile mortal body compare with the power of heaven and earth?
At least below the first level, martial arts are inferior to Taoism.
Therefore, Buddhists who are qualified to practice magic will not waste time practicing martial arts.
Shen Lang estimated that the great master of Buddhism's first-level martial arts, "The Killing Arhat", probably did not have the spiritual talent to practice magic, so he had no choice but to practice martial arts.
Shen Lang also relies on his incredible understanding. He can fully understand any martial arts or Taoism in one second, which saves a lot of time and energy in trying to understand, study and research. He also has good training resources to support him, as well as a once-in-a-millennium spiritual talent.
This is how you can practice both law and martial arts.
If he only has cultivation resources and does not have such heaven-defying qualifications and understanding, he can only choose one of the paths.
Speaking of which, after practicing the "contemplation method", Shen Lang's time was actually somewhat insufficient.
Because martial arts practice requires meditating to accumulate internal strength, which is extremely time-consuming and time-consuming.
Meditating and visualizing to cultivate the soul is also a grinding effort, and it is also very time-consuming.
Martial arts moves are not meant to be understood and used once they are learned. It also takes time to practice and become proficient, then master them, become more proficient, and finally develop into physical instincts that can be used without thinking in actual combat.
Not to mention spells, for a spell, even if you fully understand its secrets, it still takes time to construct the runes.
In short, if you want to cultivate both law and martial arts, there are too many restrictions.
It is impossible for ordinary martial arts geniuses or Taoist geniuses to have enough time and energy to take care of both.
Fortunately, even if Shen Lang does not practice contemplation, his mental power can still increase day by day due to the "Demon Taming Art". Every time the Demon Taming Art improves one level, his Taoist cultivation will be promoted to a higher level.
This gave him enough time to cultivate his internal strength.
In other words, since he advanced to the second level of "Vitality Enhancement", his powerful vitality and blood have allowed him to cultivate his internal strength much faster than ordinary warriors even without relying on any resources, and it has saved him a lot of time.
As for martial arts moves, "ten steps and one kill" with one hand is enough for weapons. As for unarmed kung fu, he seems to be more talented, and he can quickly become proficient in various unarmed martial arts.
Anyway, at this stage, he can still advance in martial arts and Taoism at the same time, practicing both martial arts and martial arts without any delay.
After practicing the powerful grappling hand, Shen Lang went on to practice the big monument throwing hand, dragon claw hand, powerful Vajra palm, and finally practiced the "Prajna Palm".
On the magic side, this "Prajna Palm" is a fifth-level magic. With Shen Lang's current cultivation level, he is still unable to practice it.
But on the martial arts side, let alone "Prajna Palm", even the third-level "Xumi Mountain King's Palm" on the magic side can be practiced with Shen Lang's sixth-level martial arts master's level, and can also be activated with internal force to exert several abilities.
Share power.
The only advantage of martial arts over magic is this.
If the level of magic is not enough, you will definitely not be able to practice high-level magic.
As for martial arts, even if your level is low, as long as your talent is strong enough and your understanding is good enough, you can still practice advanced tricks.
Even if you are unable to exert its full power due to your cultivation, you can still use it reluctantly.
Prajna Palm and Sumeru Mountain King Palm on the martial arts side are extremely advanced palm techniques, which require a strong innate understanding to understand and practice. This naturally does not pose any problem for Shen Lang.
However, even if it is an extremely advanced palm technique such as the "Xumi Mountain King Palm", driven by the internal force of the sixth-grade Dacheng level of Shenlang Martial Arts, its power is about the same as the seventh-grade spell "Powerful Vajra Palm" on the magic side.
Of course, the seventh-level magic Vajra Palm can compete with a fifth-level accomplished warrior.
If a fifth-level warrior is accidentally slapped with a palm, he will be beaten into meat patties and taken away in a wave.
Shen Lang can use the inner strength of the sixth level of martial arts to activate the Sumeru Mountain King Palm, exerting a power that is not inferior to the powerful Vajra Palm on the magic side, which shows that he also has the ability to challenge higher levels in martial arts.
A warrior who can challenge a fifth-level warrior with sixth-level martial arts. If he fights well, he may have a chance to slap the fifth-level warrior to death.
This is undoubtedly a major benefit to Shen Lang.
He offended the emperor and was offered a reward of one hundred thousand silver dollars on the black market. Before arriving in the capital and meeting Yan Tianying, Shen Lang's identity could not be easily exposed.
Now he has taken advantage of the tiger's mouth and taken away the Wind King's Orb. He has been identified as the mastermind behind the trap in the Yifu, a certain first-grade great master.
Therefore, the identity of the No. 1 vest, "Buddhist True Successor Qin Shubao," can no longer be used in the future, and a new vest must be replaced.
Even the several secret Buddhist techniques that have been shown cannot be easily performed in public.
But magic can't be used lightly, so there's no problem with martial arts, right?
Who dares to believe that someone can practice all martial arts and spells to the sixth level?
A sixth-grade warrior whose ability is comparable to that of a fifth-grade accomplished warrior is a rare martial arts genius. Normally, he would devote himself wholeheartedly to martial arts and strive to climb to a higher level as soon as possible. He cannot be distracted and waste his talent.
Therefore, even if Shen Lang performed true Buddhist martial arts, no one would associate him with "Qin Shubao".
After a round of practice, Shen Lang greeted Xiaoyu:
"Xiaoyu, come and help me perm my hair."
"Perm? What kind of perm do you want?"
"Let's have instant bangs like Jiao Enjun's version of Li Xunhuan."
Well, Shen Lang's short hair has grown out, and he can now perm his bangs and style his hair in a bun.
"...This, this hair style is so outrageous, can you handle it?"
Shen Lang was full of confidence:
"It's a joke, I'm so handsome, what kind of hairstyle can't I pull off?"
After spending more than a month practicing in a valley with beautiful mountains and clear waters, without being exposed to the scorching sun every day, and with the second-level vitality enhancement to accelerate skin renewal, his originally tanned complexion has returned to white, his appearance has skyrocketed, and he is confident that he can control anything that goes against the sky. hairstyle.
"Okay then, don't blame me if you get ugly..."
So Xiaoyu controlled the current output and used a weak current to perm Shen Lang's hair. Without any auxiliary tools, he relied on his increasingly sophisticated control to perm Shen Lang's instant bangs.
Then Shen Lang picked up a bronze mirror and admired himself, and said expressionlessly:
"Forget it, let's just shave it off."
Facts have proved that even if he is more handsome than Bai Gu, instant noodles Liu Pao is still difficult to control.
I should have known I would have left blank the ancient version of Yang Guo's dragon-bearded bangs...
Two days later.
Xiao Zhao is still sleeping and continues to refine the Wind King Pearl.
After Shen Lang meditated for an hour, he routinely launched a mental scan to explore the environment around the dianjing pen. He was suddenly surprised to find that the dianjing pen was no longer soaked in the lava, but was floating on the surface of the magma.
Although there is still red magma below the pen barrel, at least there is air above it, and I can now go out with the iron shirt and golden bell to see the situation.
Informing the little demons of the good news, Shen Lang blessed the "iron cloth shirt" and opened the "golden bell cover". Then with a thought, he left the Dianjingbi space.
