After writing two words on the rice paper, Song Zhishu did not rush to write silently, but stopped and thought quietly.
"The sage Zhu Xi once said, in the Four Books, first study in university, then study the Analects, clearly understand the way of university, and know the meaning of the sage. Now I have entered the state of knowledge and practice, knowing that I can do it for the time being, and then start to travel thousands of miles. I need to be good at practice.
It is also very important to gain knowledge in the process, and the golden mean is the way to be a human being."
"It allows me to find the most perfect point in the process of practice, which is of great help to my knowledge and practice this time. The choice of learning Zhongyong depends on my own situation."
Song Zhishu muttered to himself. After realizing that this was correct, he picked up the pen again and wrote a line of words.
"Destiny is called nature, nature is called Tao, and cultivating the Tao is called teaching."
The meaning of this sentence is not complicated. It can be understood that what God has given to humans is nature, acting and developing in accordance with nature is Tao, and cultivating Tao and promoting it to the public is education.
What it says is that God will give each person a different nature, and people should practice and understand their own nature, and then promote it.
After Song Zhishu finished this sentence, he continued to think about what he had done in the Taihao Sword Sect.
Because Li Dao and others suffered differently from him, they could not make compromises in their hearts, and then acted according to their hearts. In fact, it was in line with the meaning of this sentence. At the same time, after he had done these things, Jian Zong began to have some changes.
The disciples benefited and were affected.
Of course, this does not mean that Song Zhishu has already reached this point. He has just started to get in touch with it and does not fully understand it.
"Most people think that the golden mean is the way of mediocrity, saying that one should be smooth in doing things and not offend either side. Some people think that the golden mean means a compromise, a compromise, a balance between the pros and cons, and the lesser of the two evils.
Let’s get going again.”
"But these are all misinterpretations of later generations, which are far from the true golden mean, or even completely opposite."
“The core idea of the Doctrine of the Mean is to live in the middle and right way, be impartial and impartial, improve one’s self-cultivation with natural and pure human nature, and must conform to the right and middle way at all times and places, and then treat everything.”
Zhishu of the Song Dynasty was not simply writing from memory, but was constantly understanding and appreciating the meaning of the golden mean.
Until all the text is written silently.
Song Zhishu stopped writing and closed his eyes. At the same time, his mind became more peaceful and tranquil.
At this time, a stream of Confucian righteousness also jumped up from the rice paper and submerged into the body.
Write down Confucian scriptures silently, calm your mind, and understand them without any utilitarianism, and you will naturally gain Confucian righteousness.
After a long time, Song Zhishu opened his eyes, then picked up the article on Doctrine of the Mean, read it carefully, and finally chose to burn it. In addition to being careful not to be seen by outsiders, he also wanted to remember the process of writing and acting every time.
Here, I have a new understanding of the Doctrine of the Mean and don’t want to be entangled in the previous understanding.
After finishing these things, Song Zhishu put away his pen, ink, paper and inkstone, and then placed five hundred copies of Lieyang Mine and Saint Sword Fetus.
"Now the Sage Sword Embryo is a low-grade magic weapon flying sword. Once promoted, it becomes a mid-grade flying sword. The growth process is also very simple. Just wrap the iron ore material and the sword embryo with Haoran's righteousness. I just don't know how much it will take for this first promotion.
.”
Song Zhishu thought for a moment, then without hesitation, the awe-inspiring righteousness surged in his body and enveloped twenty parts of Fierce Yang Iron.
Buzz!
The next moment, twenty pieces of blazing sun iron vibrated, emitting streaks of light.
At the same time, the saint's sword embryo also made a buzzing sound at this moment, and the two rose up and then merged with each other.
This process didn't take long, it only took Mo Yue a cup of tea to complete. Twenty parts of the Fierce Sun Iron were completely consumed, but the Sage Sword Fetus did not change much.
"not enough."
When Song Zhishu saw this, he chose to continue, and this time he used fifty copies.
A total of seventy portions of Fierce Yang Iron were incorporated into it.
The saint's sword embryo also bloomed with sword intent at this moment. It looked extremely sharp, but it was still a low-grade magic weapon flying sword, but it seemed that it was not far away from being promoted to a higher grade.
Seeing this, Song Zhishu's eyes brightened slightly, and he fed another thirty portions of Lieyang Iron.
Zheng!
The sound of sword sounds appeared.
The appearance of the saint's sword embryo has changed. It is no longer ordinary, pure white and dazzling, just like the first time I saw it. However, the sword intention is more intense than before, and it seems to contain more powerful power.
It’s done.
The Saint's Sword Embryo grew into a mid-grade magical weapon, the Flying Sword.
Song Zhishu was a little surprised, but he did not continue to feed him. He waved slightly, and the Sage Sword Fetus shook and fell into the palm of his hand. It felt cold to the touch. However, because the sword fetus was connected to Song Zhishu's destiny, he did not feel any discomfort. Even after the sword fetus grew, he felt cold to the touch.
His own strength has also grown.
Of course, this was brought about by the Sage Sword Embryo, and it does not mean that Song Zhishu's cultivation level has also changed.
That was when Song Zhishu transformed the sword embryo into a middle-grade flying sword.
A piece of information also poured into my mind.
【Five Elements Spirit Gathering Array】
Generally, magic weapons will be engraved with formations. Because of their different levels, the number of inscriptions is also different. Every time the Saint Sword Embryo increases its level, a formation will be automatically born. The first one is the ever-changing formation.
After the sword embryo grew into a middle-grade magic weapon, a second formation was born, which was the Five Elements Spirit Gathering Formation.
As the name suggests, it can automatically absorb the five elements of spiritual energy and incorporate it into the sword body.
The longer the absorption time is, the greater the power of the sword embryo will be.
"Automatically absorb the spiritual energy of the five elements?"
Song Zhishu couldn't help but be surprised after knowing the effect of the formation.
It should be noted that ordinary flying swords, even if they are engraved with formations, basically only need to absorb one kind of spiritual energy, and it is difficult to absorb the second kind, because the five elements are mutually reinforcing and restraining each other. Once two different spiritual energies are forcibly absorbed, the flying sword will most likely not be able to withstand it.
, scrapped directly.
Unless it reaches the level of a spiritual weapon, powerful iron ore materials are used to suppress it, but it can only absorb two or three types at most.
But the Saint Sword Embryo directly absorbs the five elements of spiritual energy, incorporates it into the sword body and preserves it, so that it can be released directly.
"It is indeed worthy of the name of Saint Sword Embryo, it is simply perfect."
Song Zhishu looked at the sword fetus, feeling happy in his heart, but still a little regretful: "It's a pity that the five elements spiritual energy can only be released once after being absorbed. You need to continue absorbing it when you need to use it, but it is still very strong."
Ordinary people would be overly excited when encountering such a thing, but Song Zhishu had cultivated himself for many years and was in the state of knowledge and practice, so he quickly calmed down and set his sights on the remaining four hundred pieces of Lieyang Iron.
To upgrade from a low-grade flying sword to a medium-grade flying sword, one hundred copies are used, which is converted into ten thousand spiritual stones.
This price is actually very high, but Song Zhishu is very satisfied, because not to mention the power, it is comparable to the value of the Five Elements Spirit Gathering Array, not to mention 10,000 spirit stones, even one hundred thousand cannot compare with it.
Next is the flying sword from mid-grade to high-grade, and there is still a lot of blazing sun iron in hand.
You can continue.
Song Zhishu placed the sage sword embryo on the table and once again aroused the great righteousness in his body.
However, this time he directly wrapped a hundred portions of the Fierce Sun Iron and fed them all into the Saint Sword Embryo, but it was not enough, so Song Zhishu directly put in another hundred portions for feeding.
But at this moment, the saint's sword embryo changed again, the light was dazzling, and wisps of sword intent seemed to be revealed.
Song Zhishu stopped moving, with a hint of anticipation in his heart, thinking about what changes would happen after the sword embryo was upgraded to a high-grade magical weapon again, and what kind of formation would be born.
Soon, as the two hundred parts of the Fierce Yang Iron were completely integrated, the Saint's Sword Fetus vibrated and turned into a high-grade magical weapon, the Flying Sword.
A piece of information also poured into Song Zhishu's mind.
[Dayan Split Sword Formation]
This is the formation that was born after the saint's sword embryo transformed again. Its function is to transform the sword embryo from one into two, and from two into three. As long as there is enough magic power to support it, it is no problem to kill ten thousand swords with one sword, and
Each sword has the same power as the main body.
It can be said that with this formation, when Song Zhishu uses the flying sword, his attack methods can be greatly improved and he can be surprised.
"It has just grown into a high-grade magic weapon. The Saint Sword Embryo has such power. What about the spiritual weapon and the treasure weapon?"
After Song Zhishu learned about the effect of the formation, he couldn't help but sigh.
The Sage Sword Embryo seems to be just a high-grade magic weapon now, but if it is truly displayed, it will definitely be comparable to a spiritual weapon. Not to mention anything else, the ability of just three formations is terrifying.
At this moment, Song Zhishu was already looking forward to what the sword fetus would look like after it transformed into a spiritual weapon.
"However, I only transformed into two grades and used 300 parts of the iron ore material. The spiritual stone in my hand is not enough." Song Zhishu looked at the remaining 200 parts of Lieyang Iron and couldn't help but smile bitterly.
It takes a lot of resources to transform the Saint Sword Embryo. The higher the level, the more it costs.
What's left in his hands may not be enough to support the sword embryo to grow into a top-quality magic weapon.
According to Song Zhishu's estimate, another hundred iron ore materials are needed, which means a total of 300 pieces and 10,000 low-grade spiritual stones. An ordinary foundation-building monk would be daunted by the price.
Because this is only needed to transform the flying sword, and does not include daily practice, otherwise it will only be more terrifying.
"We still have to find a way to earn spiritual stones."
Song Zhishu looked at the Saint Sword Embryo that had become a high-grade magical weapon in his hand, and already had an idea in his mind. He would stay in Qingzhou City temporarily, and wait for the Saint Sword Embryo to grow into a spiritual weapon before choosing a day to leave.
As for the means of earning spiritual stones.
Song Zhishu put away the remaining Lieyang Iron and took out the jade he had purchased previously.
Ten low-grade spiritual-level gems and five medium-grade spiritual-level gems.
"After the lower-grade spiritual gems are inscribed, we should be able to sell about two thousand spiritual stones in the Wanshi Pavilion. The total is twenty thousand, which should be enough to buy iron ore materials, but I don't know how to transform the magic weapon into a spiritual weapon.
In addition to Haoran’s righteousness, do you need any more materials? Let’s engrave a few more in case of emergency.”
Song Zhishu made some calculations and found that this was not the Taihao Sword Sect, nor was the Wanshi Pavilion Qiyu Zhai, so it would definitely not be able to offer a high price.
Fortunately, I still have five medium-grade spiritual gems on me, but I don’t know the price, but I estimate it is at least four thousand spiritual gems and upwards.
Therefore, Song Zhishu planned to engrave five coins first.
Considering that he is now comparable to a Yuanshen in the early stage of the Dan Formation Realm, there shouldn't be much of a problem. Once he succeeds, he will be a second-level mid-level inscription master.
After tidying up the room for a while, Song Zhishu took a deep breath, picked up the magic pen, and began to engrave the jade.
The defense type is more expensive, so I still chose the words "mountain" and "royal".
The two divine inscriptions fell and merged into the low-grade spiritual grade jade.
Engraving gems requires Yuan Shen, and the stronger the Yuan Shen is, not only the success rate is higher, but also the time is faster. Previously, Song Zhishu's Yuan Shen at the peak of the Foundation Establishment Realm could engrave one in two days. Now, at the early stage of the Dan Formation Realm, he can only engrave one.
Faster.
Six hours later.
As Baoyu trembled, two blurry fonts finally appeared and submerged into Baoyu, indicating that it was completed.
"One piece takes six hours. Ten pieces will take five days. Plus I recover my soul, it will take at least eight days."
Song Zhishu thought about it and felt that his soul had not been consumed too much, so he continued to engrave.
In this way, the sun and the moon alternate and time passes.
Eight days flew by.
During this period of time, in addition to engraving precious jade, Song Zhishu would also go out for a walk. Sometimes he would talk to the monks who lived in Yunlingzhai, and he would also understand the golden mean. His days were also fulfilling, and he continued for another twenty days.
of rent.
He then spent another five days engraving five middle-grade spiritual gems, all of which were successful.
This means that the current Song Zhishu has become a second-level mid-level inscription master.
in the room.
Song Zhishu looked at the jade that had been engraved and tidied it up.
He left the inn directly and headed to Wanshi Pavilion.
About half an hour later.
Wanshi Pavilion.
As soon as Song Zhishu stepped into it, the female monk named Lan Yi came to greet him.
"Lanyi has met the Immortal. Does the Immortal still need iron ore materials today?"
Lan Yi's voice was soft, her words were warm, and she had a smile on her face. She bowed slightly. Last time Song Zhishu came, she spent 50,000 spirit stones, but she got a pretty good commission. Now she has seen someone
Come, of course you will be happy.
"The girl in blue."
Song Zhishu returned the gift and then said: "No, I came here this time to sell finished gems to Wanshi Pavilion."
"Finished gem?"
When Lan Yi heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up, and he asked with curiosity: "Could it be that the Immortal is an inscription master?"
The status of the inscription master is second only to alchemy and weapon refining among the various arts of cultivating immortals. With the support of powerful souls, people will respect you wherever you go, especially high-level inscription masters, who are guests of major immortal cultivating families.
Because if you want to take the inscription route, talent is secondary, and the most important thing is resource investment.
It is difficult for ordinary monks to even support daily monks, let alone become an inscription master.
Lan Yi always felt that Song Zhishu was not an ordinary casual cultivator.
It's even more certain now.
"kindness."
Song Zhishu nodded, and then took out the ten low-grade spiritual gems from the storage bag: "Please let the girl in blue take a look."
"Spirit-level finished gem? The Immortal is a second-level low-level inscription master?"
Lan Yi looked at Baoyu, with a look of astonishment in his eyes. If Song Zhishu was an inscription master, Lan Yi was certainly surprised, but not to such an extent. But the second-level low-grade inscription master was completely different. If he was placed in Qingzhou
Chengdu is considered a character and will be fawned over by many casual cultivators, which has a completely different meaning.
It is equivalent to the difference between Qi training and foundation building.
"good."
Song Zhishu couldn't help but be stunned by the surprise of the girl in blue. She was only a second-level low-grade inscription master.
But after thinking about it carefully, it seems normal. Although the Mingyue City where I lived before was not as good as Qingzhou City in terms of size or number of monks, the key point is that Mingyue City belongs to the Taihao Sword Sect.
How does Taihao Sword Sect exist?
One of the three major sword sects, famous all over the world, with countless strong men.
Second-level low-level inscription masters are nothing there, there are many outer disciples, but Qingzhou City is different. After several days of observation by Song Zhishu, most of them are Qi-training monks. Of course, there are also foundation-building monks, but the proportion is very small.
I haven't seen any pill formation yet, maybe there are, but not too many.
The Taihao Sword Sect was an unimaginable behemoth in front of Qingzhou City.
Even the Wanshi Pavilion opened here is not large in scale, and cannot be compared with the Wanshi Pavilion in several other giant cities in the East.
With his thoughts at this point, Song Zhishu did not hesitate, and finally took out five more middle-grade spiritual-grade jade: "I still have some here, so I'll trouble Wanshi Pavilion to identify them together."
The girl in blue had not yet reacted to the surprise that Song Zhishu was a second-level low-grade inscription master.
I saw five more finished gems, and they were all medium-grade spiritual grade gems.
For a moment, Lan Yi was completely stunned and speechless.
Fortunately, she reacted quickly enough and was not rude. She bowed quickly and said with respect in her tone, "Please wait a moment."
After saying that, the girl in blue found someone who specialized in appraisal and took away a total of fifteen gems.
At the same time, she slightly bowed to Song Zhishu: "Shangxian, it will take some time to wait for the appraisal. Wanshi Pavilion has a private room specially prepared for distinguished guests. If you don't mind, you can come with the slave family."
"good."
Song Zhishu thought it would be okay to wait in the lobby as it would attract too much attention, so he immediately agreed.
Not long after, under the leadership of the girl in blue, the two of them walked into the private room of Wanshi Pavilion.
The decoration of the private room is not gorgeous, but it makes people feel very comfortable.
There is also a pot of spiritual tea brewing on the table.
"Sir, please take a seat. We just need to wait for a moment." The girl in blue asked Song Zhishu to sit down, and then she offered a cup of spiritual tea, acting appropriately and cautiously.
"Thank you."
Song Zhishu nodded.
Not long.
The person who was responsible for appraising the spiritual jade came over, his steps were a little hurried, and when he saw Song Zhishu, he even bowed, and then quietly said a few words in the ear of the girl in blue.
The girl in blue immediately stood up, looked at Song Zhishu with eyes even more surprised than before, and then said, "Master Immortal, please wait a little longer."
When Song Zhishu heard this, he probably knew what it meant.
This was the look on Wang Guanshi's face at Qi Yu Zhai when he saw two divine inscriptions on the jade he had engraved. Apparently Wan Shi Pavilion was also extremely shocked by the appearance of those fifteen jade stones.
Therefore, Song Zhishu did not say much and said that he could continue to wait.
The girl in blue bowed and left the private room with the man.
After a stick of incense, she turned back, but the surprise in her eyes had disappeared, replaced by a more enthusiastic and charming smile: "After the appraisal of Wanshi Pavilion, the jade inscribed by the Immortal has two immortal inscriptions, which is of the highest quality.
The best among them are very rare, so the prices given by our Wanshi Pavilion are two thousand spirit stones for one piece and four thousand five hundred spirit stones for one piece."
Hearing this price, Song Zhishu nodded silently. It was similar to what he expected, and then he said: "Then let's pay this price."
Wanshi Pavilion branches are spread all over Central Continent and Deserted Continent, so it is impossible for them to lose credibility on this matter.
"Please don't be impatient."
"This is the Tu Xing guest card specially applied for by the slave family for the Immortal. The guests who have this thing will become the distinguished guests of my Wanshi Pavilion. Anywhere in the world, as long as there is a Wanshi Pavilion, they can enjoy better treatment there.
At the same time, I, the Wanshi Pavilion, will also give benefits to the Immortal."
"If the Immortal accepts it, today's price offered by the Wanshi Pavilion for the low-grade spiritual gem is 2,500 spiritual stones, and the same mid-grade spiritual gem is five thousand spiritual stones."
But the girl in blue smiled slightly, took out a yellow jade medal directly from her sleeve, and presented it with both hands.
Tu Xing Ke brand?
Song Zhishu understood the words clearly.
I had heard it before when I was in Taihao Sword Sect.
Wanshi Pavilion will give guest cards to guests with good potential, which are divided into five levels according to the five elements, with the earth element being the lowest and the gold element being the highest.
No wonder Wanshi Pavilion can do business all over the human cultivation world. This method is not comparable to ordinary places, it is very advanced.
But Song Zhishu did not accept it immediately, but asked: "Then the girl in blue, are there any conditions for accepting this guest card?"
This is not the Taihao Sword Sect, so you have to be cautious in everything you do, and you must ask if there are any pitfalls.
"Please rest assured, Immortal, there are no conditions."
The girl in blue continued with a smile: "So there is no need for the Immortal to worry. The Immortal should also understand the reputation of my Wanshi Pavilion."
"That's good."
Song Zhishu nodded.
Since there are no conditions, it doesn't matter if you choose to accept it.
Moreover, I can sell more spiritual stones, which is good for me now.
Besides, it can be used at Wanshi Pavilion branches in every place, so it will be much more convenient to sell gems in the future.
"Thank you, Immortal."
When the girl in blue saw that Song Zhishu agreed, she couldn't help but feel overjoyed and directly bowed to thank her, because after the guest cards were issued, as the applicant, she would be able to get a commission from every subsequent transaction. Although it was not much, for her
This is already very good for a second or third level Qi training monk.
Then the girl in blue stood up and spoke again: "I wonder what your surname is? Your surname must be engraved on the guest card."
"Song."
Song Zhishu spoke, knowing that this might be an anti-counterfeiting method of Wanshi Pavilion.
"Okay, please wait a moment, Song Shangxian."
The girl in blue took out a magic pen, injected it with magic power, and carved the word "Song" on the back of the guest card.
After finishing, she presented the guest card and continued: "If the guest card is lost, Song Shangxian can go to any Wanshi Pavilion branch to get a replacement at any time."
"Thanks for the reminder, girl."
Song Zhishu took the guest card and held it in Wei Liang's hand. It had the three characters Wanshi Pavilion on the front and his surname on the back.
"Next is the spiritual stone prepared for you, Song Shangxian."
Miss Lu'er immediately got up and went to prepare the spiritual stone.
"Don't be busy yet."
Song Zhishu stopped and thought for a moment before continuing: "Please help me prepare twenty middle-grade spiritual-grade jade, three hundred parts of Fierce Sun Iron, and fifty Lingyuan Pills. Just deduct them from them."
Engraving jade is the only way I can earn spiritual stones for the time being. If I prepare more, I can leave it engraving on the road.
The Sage Sword Embryo also needs to be transformed, so iron ore materials are essential.
As for Lingyuan Pill.
This is specially used for practicing in the foundation-building realm. Its function is similar to the Qi Condensing Pill in the Qi-training realm, and it can speed up the practice.
Song Zhishu is currently in the early stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm. Accidents will inevitably happen while walking outside, so he wants to improve his strength as soon as possible.
Mr. Gu Yun reminded that the demons in Beizhou are becoming more and more powerful, and there will be a catastrophe in a few years.
I don’t have much time, so I have to be quick.
And fifty Lingyuan Pills are enough for a short time.
"Okay, please wait a moment, Song Shangxian."
When the girl in blue heard what Song Zhishu wanted, she immediately bowed.
Sure enough, I made the right move in applying for a customer license, and the transaction came so quickly.
Without hesitation, she poured tea for Song Zhishu again, then quickly walked out of the private room, and soon came back with a tray sitting in her hand, with three storage bags of different colors on it.
"Song Shangxian, the total number of your precious jade is fifty thousand spirit stones. Because you use my Tuxingke brand from Wanshi Pavilion, the raw materials of the medium-grade spiritual grade jade you need are one thousand spirit stones, and the Lieyang Iron is eighty spirit stones.
One stone, the price of one Lingyuan Pill is one hundred spirit stones, the total is forty-nine thousand spirit stones, and there are still one thousand spirit stones left, please ask Shangxian Song to count them."
This costs 49,000 spirit stones?
Song Zhishu was stunned when he heard this.
But if you calculate it carefully, it is actually a discount. The prices I learned about at Qiyu Zhai before, whether it is mid-grade spiritual grade gems or Lingyuan Dan, are relatively more expensive than those offered by Wanshi Pavilion, especially Lieyang Tie
, which is also twenty spirit stones less than yesterday.
Sure enough, spiritual practice is the most expensive, especially the higher the level, the more expensive it is.
As far as the Lingyuan Pill is concerned, the Qi Condensing Pill only costs twenty spirit stones.
"Okay, that's it."
Song Zhishu nodded, a little helpless. He spent the 50,000 low-grade spiritual stones he had just received without even looking at them.
Didn't think much about it.
Song Zhishu took everything and put it into the storage bag.
"Song Shangxian goes slowly. If there is still need, the slave family can help the Shangxian at any time."
The girl in blue also stood up, her tone was gentle, and the smile on her face had never stopped from the beginning until now.
Qingzhou City is not a big city in the east, so the Wanshi Pavilion here receives guests whose backgrounds are not very profound. If someone can spend 10,000 spirit stones at one time, it is very good.
However, Song Zhishu had only been in Qingzhou for half a month, and he had used nearly 100,000 spiritual stones in total.
Moreover, he has the status of an inscription master, he is gentle and has no airs, and for the girl in blue, he is already a very noble guest.
She looked forward to Song Zhishu coming every day.
"Thank you, girl in blue."
Song Zhishu naturally knew what the other party was thinking and smiled bitterly in his heart.
I also want to come every day, but I don’t have even 10,000 spiritual stones left.
It seems that next, I have to find a way to earn spiritual stones again, but the only way to engrave jade is not really feasible, so I have to find other ways.
But these all need to be considered in the long term.
soon.
Song Zhishu left Wanshi Pavilion and headed to the inn Yunlingzhai.
After greeting the monks living nearby, he went directly into the room and locked the doors and windows.
Finally, put all today's gains on the table, and first take out the Fierce Sun Iron.
Including what was left before, there are five hundred copies.
"These should be enough for the Saint Sword Embryo to grow into a top-quality magical weapon, the Flying Sword." Song Zhishu looked at the iron ore materials in front of him and thought in his mind.
For the sake of the sword fetus, 80,000 spiritual stones were spent. Of course, as long as the goal can be achieved, it will all be worth it.
There was a pause.
Song Zhishu was not in a hurry to start.
I took out the basic books and read them again, and memorized the Doctrine of the Mean again.
The purpose of my trip is not only to practice cultivation, but also to know and practice, and to understand more truths. Therefore, I must not relax about reading, and it is also something to do every day. Mr. Wenyuan said before that the real power of Confucianism
It can only be truly manifested after knowing and doing.
In particular, Song Zhishu also benefited from it a lot. In his eyes, Confucianism and Immortalism were equally important.
Just like that, a whole hour passed.
Song Zhishu stopped writing.
After meditating and adjusting his breath for a while, he walked to the table and took out the Saint Sword Embryo.
"When you are promoted to the middle level, you get the Five Elements Gathering Formation. When you are promoted to the top level, you get the Dayan Sword Formation. I just don't know what formations will be born from the Saint Sword Fetus after you are promoted to the top grade. Also, as long as the sword fetus becomes the top grade magic weapon.
, I can use Haoran’s righteousness to directly transform it into a spiritual weapon.”
Song Zhishu looked at the sword embryo with a slight smile in his eyes, and then closed his eyes, activating the awe-inspiring righteousness in his body to wrap around the Fierce Yang Iron.
Immediately, the Saint's Sword Embryo sensed and emitted a faint light.
A total of two hundred parts of Liyang Iron began to fuse with it.
"not enough."
Song Zhishu used his soul and found that two hundred copies were not enough, so he added another hundred copies.
It was at this moment that the Saint's Sword Fetus made a sword cry. Not long after, all the light dissipated, and the Saint's Sword Fetus grew into a top-grade magic weapon, the Flying Sword.
At the same time, a piece of information poured into Song Zhishu's mind.
It was the fourth formation that was born from the womb of the sword.
[Zhou Tianyin Divine Formation]
The so-called Zhoutian Hidden God Array, in short, means that after injecting mana, it can hide the whole body's aura and soul. Even if it is a small level higher, it cannot be seen through. Especially the higher the level, the wider the hiding range, even to the point where
In the end, it is impossible to figure out the secret of heaven even by deduction.
"With this formation, doesn't it mean that when I face the enemy in the future, I can achieve the effect of taking him by surprise and killing him with one blow?"
After Song Zhishu saw the effect of the fourth formation, his eyes couldn't help but brighten.
I haven't thought about covering up the secrets for the time being.
Because I can’t access that level.
But hiding the breath and soul is completely different. It is very useful. Especially in certain extremely dangerous times, it can even achieve a desperate counterattack.
Of course, it is impossible to completely avoid being noticed. If the enemy's cultivation level is too high, many flaws will be left.
But even so, this formation is still of great use.
The previous three formations basically worked on the sword fetus itself, but this fourth one was of great help to Song Zhishu himself.
"The closer we get to the end, the more infinite the mystery of the saint's sword embryo becomes. The next step is to transform it into a spiritual weapon."
Song Zhishu sighed with emotion, then his face became serious, and then he sat up cross-legged without hesitation.
The saint's sword is placed horizontally on both knees.
If you want to transform the sword embryo into a spiritual weapon and improve its quality, those iron ore materials are no longer useful, and you must use Haoran Zhengqi.
There are eighty-two strands of awe-inspiring righteousness in his body now, which is not too much, but according to Song Zhishu's estimation, it should be enough to transform into a low-grade spiritual weapon.
Therefore, he sat down and adjusted his breath, reaching the peak of his condition, and then took another Lingyuan Pill.
Directly arouse the awe-inspiring righteousness in the body and integrate it into the sword fetus.
It is different from growth level.
Haoran's righteousness is only a supplement, but the transformation of quality actually consumes Haoran's righteousness.
Soon, the first ray of awe-inspiring righteousness was integrated into the saint's sword body, and at the same time it was stabilized with magic power.
Buzz!
The sword embryo made a buzzing sound and light surged, but there was no change.
Song Zhishu will naturally not give up and continue to mobilize Haoran's righteousness.
Then, the second way, the third way, the fourth way, the fifth way, the tenth way, and the twentieth way.
This is a very long process, and time is passing away bit by bit.
The awe-inspiring righteous energy in his body was continuously released, integrated into the sword body, and surrounded Song Zhishu, making the whole room filled with light, and the surrounding spiritual energy of heaven and earth turned into a tide and swept in.
Fortunately, there is a spirit gathering array and a small defensive array in Yunlingzhai, so the situation inside cannot be explored from the outside.
And this is why the price is expensive.
only.
When Song Zhishu integrated forty righteousness into it, but the sword body still did not change much, he couldn't help but feel depressed.
Half of Haoran's righteousness has been used, and I don't know if the rest can be sustained.
"Come again."
Song Zhishu did not stop. Since he had done it, he had to do it to the end. Anyway, the Haoran's righteousness integrated into the Sage Sword Embryo was not without effect. The key was not knowing how much it would take.
And I also have various ways to obtain Haoran's righteousness, so I don't need to worry too much for the time being.
Soon, the fiftieth wave of awe-inspiring righteousness poured in.
Zhengzhengzheng!
Jian Fei finally responded.
The sword body vibrated continuously, revealing strong sword intent.
More importantly, there are textures on the transparent sword body.
These textures are not regular, but if you observe carefully, you will find that they contain a certain special atmosphere, which makes the Sage Sword Embryo even more extraordinary.
"continue!"
Song Zhishu knew that he was about to succeed.
So at this moment, he directly mobilized the ten great righteousness to merge into it.
I don't know how long it took, but the Sage Sword Fetus began to undergo complete changes.
In an instant, the spiritual energy of the surrounding heaven and earth shook.
The sword embryo was suspended in the air involuntarily, and golden rays of light were continuously introduced into the sword body. It looked dazzling, especially the sword intent emanating from it, which was thicker, sharper, and extraordinary than ever before.
Even with Song Zhishu's physique, he could feel a hint of danger, but he was connected to the sword fetus, and the sword fetus would not hurt him at all.
Buzz!
finally.
All the light on the saint's sword began to converge and fade into it.
In the sword body, the textures became clearer.
Song Zhishu directly held it in his hand.
He still had the same feeling in his mind, just like the regeneration of flesh and blood. He could clearly feel that the power contained in the saint's sword was several times or even dozens of times higher than before.
This is the low-grade spiritual weapon Flying Sword, the Sage Sword Embryo.
"I am currently at the early stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm. I don't need to use any other cards. I only use the Saint Sword Embryo, which is enough to compete with the mid-stage Foundation Establishment Realm."
"Especially with the blessing of the four major formations, it is no problem to cross a small realm and kill."
Feel the power emanating from the saint's sword.
Song Zhishu was very satisfied.
The sword fetus is definitely a great weapon for me.
However, the extraordinaryness of the current saint's sword embryo can be seen at a glance. Therefore, after Song Zhishu thought about it, his mind moved slightly, and the ever-changing array was touched. The appearance of the sword embryo began to change, but it was not as ordinary as before, but
It looks more normal, with a reddish glow all over.
This is a high-grade magic weapon flying sword that he saw before when he was patrolling the mountains.
After all, he is now a Foundation Establishment Realm monk.
It is somewhat unjustifiable to use a low-grade magic weapon like before, which makes people even more suspicious.
As for the sword fetus transformed into a spiritual weapon, no new formation was born.
Because that is only available after level growth.
For example, if Song Zhishu feeds it into a middle-grade spiritual weapon in the future, the fifth formation will be born.
"I don't know how much iron ore material is needed to make the sword embryo a middle-grade spiritual weapon."
Song Zhishu thought for a moment, and then tried it with Lieyang Iron.
After one hundred copies, there was no reaction at all.
Two hundred copies, still the same.
"I'm afraid that if we only feed it with sun iron, it's impossible not to have a thousand copies, unless there are better iron ore materials, but it also means more expensive."
Song Zhishu said to himself, and his words became even more helpless. This is not something that ordinary people can afford.
It costs too much spiritual stone.
Shaked his head.
Put this matter aside for now.
Song Zhishu took another good look at the Sage Sword Fetus and felt it carefully.
"I just don't know how powerful the Saint Sword Fetus is after it transforms into a low-grade spiritual weapon. I'll give it a try sometime."
I can only feel the power of the sword embryo roughly. To truly understand it, I have to use it. This is very important. Only by understanding your own strength can you be able to fight with ease when fighting the enemy.
Then Song Zhishu didn't think much, put the sword embryo into the storage bag and ignored it.
Then he closed his eyes and looked at himself.
Because the transformation of the sword embryo consumes some mana, but not much. What is really consumed is Haoran's righteousness, and only twenty-two are left.
"Most of all the savings I have made before have been used up. Without Haoran's righteousness, let alone other aspects, my cultivation speed will slow down. I have to find a way to make up for it. And when the saint's sword embryo transforms into an ancient weapon in the future, I don't know how much will be needed.
Haoran is upright."
"Also, in terms of spiritual stones, the Spiritual Essence Pills I have are definitely not enough. I need to prepare at least hundreds of them."
After checking his own status, Song Zhishu became even more helpless.
Wasn't the reason why I was able to make such rapid progress in the Qi Training Realm before because of the Qi Condensation Pill?
But without the support of Haoran's righteousness, the elixir cannot be completely absorbed, there will be side effects, and it will take longer for the medicine to melt.
Song Zhishu then determined two things that needed to be done, which were to earn spiritual stones and obtain Haoran's righteousness.
There are ways to earn spiritual stones on your own, but the key is that Haoran Zhengqi is a bit troublesome.
It's definitely not possible to just rely on reading, you have to wait until the year of the monkey and the month of the horse.
If you were placed in the Taihao Sword Sect and accepted the status of a true disciple, these would be nothing.
But now, being outside is equivalent to being a casual cultivator, and you have to do everything by yourself.
certainly.
Song Zhishu did not regret it. The more difficult it was, the more test it was. In Taihao Sword Sect, there is indeed no need to worry about such things, but people also lack goals and ambition.
"First choose the engraved jade to earn spiritual stones, and buy more Lingyuan Pills to increase your strength."
This is the simplest and won't be too difficult.
Thoughts come to this.
Taking a deep breath, Song Zhishu packed up all the things in the room, then sat cross-legged and adjusted his breathing, swallowed the Lingyuan Pill, and refined it with Haoran's righteousness.
The next morning.
in the room.
One after another, the spiritual energy of heaven and earth poured into Song Zhishu's body, as thick as a mountain, and finally turned into magic power.
After a long time, he opened his eyes, and a ray of light flickered.
"With my current level of cultivation, if I want to break through to the middle stage of the Foundation Establishment Realm as soon as possible, I will need at least five hundred Lingyuan Pills, and this is just a small breakthrough." Song Zhishu made a rough estimate and sighed.
Still not enough money.
never mind.
When the time comes, let’s finish engraving the jade in our hands first.
Song Zhishu thought about it and dispersed the spiritual energy of heaven and earth that was constantly pouring in.
Then he stood up, tidied up a little, closed the door and prepared to go out for a walk.
But just when he went out, a slightly familiar voice sounded from behind.
