"...It's a bit strange." Gu Tianhai's expression was hesitant: "Master... don't blame me for talking too much... that Ma Xiaoyao's bones are really bad, almost to the extreme. Unless there is a miracle that defies heaven, otherwise
He will not go too far on the path of cultivating immortality..."
"Ma Xiaoyao looks very much like a person." Zhuang Zizai suddenly said.
"Like a person?" Gu Tianhai was stunned: "Who does it look like?"
Zhuang Zizai's eyes slowly narrowed: "Like a friend of mine."
"friend?"
"I have a friend who is also very poor in cultivation, but like Ma Xiaoyao, he refused to admit defeat and was unwilling to give in. He worked hard every day and forgot to eat and sleep, hoping to achieve something, but... in the end he failed and was dying.
At that time, he held my hand, his eyes were filled with reluctance and reluctance for life...I felt very uncomfortable at that time..."
"Master..."
"Oh, why am I telling you this?" Zhuang Zizai shook his head slightly: "Tianhai, if you are free in the future, please give Ma Xiaoyao more guidance."
Gu Tianhai frowned and nodded: "Disciple, I understand. By the way, Master, why was Ma Xiaoyao able to break through the bottleneck and enter the innate realm in such a short period of time?"
"You don't need to take it too seriously." Zhuang Zizai waved his hand: "It's probably just a coincidence. Even if he enters the innate realm by chance, he won't have much success in the future. In your words, as long as he doesn't
Due to such an unexpected accident, Ma Xiaoyao can only stay in the innate realm for the rest of his life."
…
time flies.
In the blink of an eye, Ma Xiaoyao stayed at Ziyun Peak for a month.
In the past month, Ma Xiaoyao worked very hard. Apart from eating and sleeping every day, he spent all the rest of his time practicing. After a month, he also made some achievements. What surprised Ma Xiaoyao the most was that he actually interacted with the mysterious bead.
Got in touch.
After constant attempts and groping, Ma Xiaoyao was finally able to control the mysterious beads. This must be related to entering the innate realm, because in the acquired realm, no matter how he tried, he could not control the mysterious beads.
With an independent yard and independent rooms, Ma Xiaoyao's accommodation environment is pretty good.
He is sitting cross-legged on the bed at the moment, with a fiery red bead floating above his head, and countless vitality of heaven and earth coming from all around. These vitality of heaven and earth are divided into five colors, representing five different attributes. They are competing for the first place.
The energy of five different attributes all poured into the bead, and the bead did not reject it...
Ma Xiaoyao was shocked, what is going on? Can't the beads only absorb the fire element? Why are they absorbing other elements now? He won't have hallucinations, right? He blinked hard, and then looked up again,
That's right...the beads are still absorbing the five attributes of vitality...and the speed is quite fast...
Could it be that I misunderstood?
This bead not only absorbs the fire element, but also absorbs other elements?
At this moment, the color of the beads suddenly changed, "Swish, brush, brush, brush!" In the blink of an eye, the surface of the beads was covered with five colors, gold, green, white, red, and gray.
"What's going on? It was only red just now, but in the blink of an eye... there are four more colors..."
"Gold, green, white, red, gray... these are clearly the colors of the five elements? Gold, wood, water, fire, earth..."
"It's strange. After the beads turned into five colors, they absorbed the vitality of the world faster, several times faster than before."
Ma Xiaoyao murmured to himself, his face full of surprise. This bead gave him too many surprises.
"Whoa!"
The five-color beads suddenly started to rotate. Every time they rotated, a layer of light spots of five colors would be shed. These light spots fell quickly, penetrated into the body along the pores, and then turned into wisps of true energy and submerged into the Dantian.
.
As the light spots continue to pour into the body, the true energy in the Dantian becomes deeper and deeper.
"So comfortable!" Ma Xiaoyao clearly felt that his strength was gradually improving. This feeling was really amazing.
Originally, Ma Xiaoyao could absorb the vitality of the five elements by himself, but the speed would be very slow. Now with the help of the five-color beads, he can absorb the vitality several times faster.
This five-color bead is like a filter, filtering out all the impurities in the vitality of heaven and earth, and then sending all the essence inside into Ma Xiaoyao's body. There is no need for Ma Xiaoyao to specifically refine it, the vitality of heaven and earth will automatically become
The true energy enters the Dantian.
"With this precious bead, wouldn't it be much more convenient for me to practice in the future?" Ma Xiaoyao was extremely excited. After listening to Zhuang Zizai's words, Ma Xiaoyao felt cold in his heart, and his self-confidence was also affected.
It was a shock, but now it's better. With the help of this mysterious bead, Ma Xiaoyao no longer has to worry about absorbing the vitality of heaven and earth.
Everyone who underestimates me will be shocked in the future!
"Gululu..."
My stomach started to protest.
"It's time to eat again." Ma Xiaoyao closed his eyes, released his spiritual consciousness and wrapped it around the mysterious bead. With a gentle tug, the mysterious bead disappeared between Ma Xiaoyao's eyebrows.
After calming down the energy in his body, he jumped out of bed, opened the door and walked out.
There is a large canteen in Ziyun Peak, and almost everyone goes there to eat. The food is very good, with wine, meat, and soup made from elixirs. It is not only delicious, but also very tonic.
On the way, Ma Xiaoyao met Gu Tianhai. He hurriedly came forward to say hello: "Brother Gu, are you coming to eat too?"
"Nonsense." Gu Tianhai curled his lips: "Why should I come to the cafeteria if I don't want to eat?"
"Haha... I asked the question abruptly, senior brother Gu, don't blame me." Ma Xiaoyao secretly cursed in his heart. Gu Tianhai didn't know where the fault was, but he just didn't like him. He always acted sternly every time we met.
His face, so arrogant, is really a bit irritating.
"If there's nothing else, I'll go eat." Gu Tianhai waved his hand and walked into the cafeteria with square steps. From the beginning to the end, he never looked at Ma Xiaoyao seriously.
Ma Xiaoyao frowned, then relaxed, and then entered the canteen with a smile.
After eating and drinking enough, Ma Xiaoyao returned to his residence, closed the door, took off his shoes, climbed into bed, crossed his legs and continued practicing.
…
The next morning, Ma Xiaoyao came to the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion alone.
The Sutra Collection Pavilion on Ziyun Peak is a seven-story attic. Innate realm disciples can only view the cultivation secrets from the first to third floors. Huang-level disciples can view the secrets from the fourth to sixth floors. As for the seventh floor
...Only elders are eligible to enter.
Of course, the entry time is also limited. Innate disciples can only enter once a month and can stay for a maximum of two hours each time. Huang-level disciples can enter twice a month and can stay a maximum of three hours each time. As for
Elders... can enter at will.
There are guards on every floor of the Sutra Pavilion, and their cultivation levels are very high. If you want to cause trouble here, you are simply seeking death.
After registering his name at the door, Ma Xiaoyao entered the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion. Because his time was limited, he browsed the secret books very quickly. This was his second time entering the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion. The first time he browsed several books on the Five Elements.
Due to time constraints, he only browsed a small part of the cheats on attributes. This time, he planned to continue reading the cheats on the five elements' attributes.
Time flies so fast, two hours passed in the blink of an eye.
"The time is up, you can go out." The guard looked at Ma Xiaoyao expressionlessly.
Ma Xiaoyao put down the secret book reluctantly, and then walked out. When he reached the door, he stopped, hesitated for a moment, then slowly turned around and looked at the guard with bright eyes: "This senior brother...
Can I ask you a question?"
"Say." The guard nodded.
"Well...can I borrow the secret book here? Don't worry, I will return it soon." Ma Xiaoyao looked at the guard expectantly.
The guard shook his head: "No, the secret books here are all originals. You cannot take them out. If they are damaged, I will be severely punished."
"That's it..." Ma Xiaoyao's face was full of disappointment.
"I can't give you the original, but I can give you a copy." The guard said.
"What is a copy?" Ma Xiaoyao was stunned.
"It's a copy." The guard explained, "It's exactly the same as the original."
"Great! I want a copy, please lend it to me, senior brother." Ma Xiaoyao was overjoyed.
The guard shook his head: "If you want to borrow a copy, you need to pay rent."
"Rent?" Ma Xiaoyao blinked: "How much money do you need?"
"I don't want silver, I want spiritual stones."
"Spiritual stone? What is that?"
"It's a stone that contains spiritual energy. It's very precious. One spiritual stone can be rented for a month."
"I don't have any spiritual stones on me?"
"I know you don't have a spiritual stone with you...but I can show you a way. You can get the spiritual stone by following the method I told you."
"Senior brother, please tell me."
"There is a dense forest behind Ziyun Peak, and there are many spiritual beasts living in it. As long as you kill one and take out its inner elixir, you can come to me in exchange for a spiritual stone, and then you can rent a copy of the secret book.
"The guard said slowly.
"Forests? Spiritual beasts?" Ma Xiaoyao was stunned: "What is a spiritual beast?"
The guard frowned: "You really don't know anything! Forget it, let me explain to you in detail. Spirit beasts are mutated beasts. They are also divided into levels, including innate spirit beasts and yellow-level spirit beasts.
Xuan-level spirit beasts, etc. The more advanced the spirit beast is, the more precious its inner elixir is." At this point, the guard paused: "Don't worry, there are some innate spirit beasts in the woods behind Ziyun Peak.
, the strength is not too strong, as long as you use your heart, you can kill them easily."
"Um...can we kill the spiritual beasts in the woods at will? Is there no one to care about them?" Ma Xiaoyao asked.
"No one will take care of the disciples who are in the innate realm when they go hunting spirit beasts in the woods. If it is the yellow-level disciples who go there...someone will take care of them." The guard explained: "The spirit beasts in the woods are raised by the elders of the sect and are mainly used for their use.
Innate disciples go through experience, so if a disciple in the innate realm goes to hunt spiritual beasts in the woods, no one will care."
"So that's it." A look of surprise appeared on Ma Xiaoyao's face.
"Have you made your decision?" the guard asked, "should you go or not?"
