Cultivating immortality in the troubled times of demons and martial arts Chapter 160: Opening the Spiritual Aperture (Congratulations to the cramped night leader!)
Chapter 160: Opening the Spiritual Aperture (Congratulations to the cramped night leader!)
Fang Xi didn't care at all about the foundation-building battle outside the city and the final whereabouts of the 'Xuanshui Liquid'.
He devoted himself to seclusion, doing daily meditation and practicing the 'Aoki Longevity Kung Fu'. He spent most of his time communicating with the fragmented world and learning the language there.
This day.
After running the technique as usual, Fang Xi looked inside her qi sea dantian, looking at the green pool of mana, and couldn't help but be very satisfied.
"According to this progress, when you are eighty years old, you should be able to condense about forty drops of liquid mana, and have a chance to hit the middle stage of foundation building..."
However, forty drops of liquid mana is only the minimum standard, and the possibility of breakthrough in the mid-term is small.
Once the breakthrough fails, it is inevitable that the muscles and bones will be damaged and the vitality will be damaged.
To be cautious, Fang Xi decided to hone her mana again. When the liquid mana reaches the limit of her dantian, which is about fifty drops, it would be best to use elixirs to try to break through.
In this way, you can be sure of everything.
After practicing the exercises every day, Fang Xi's spiritual consciousness entered the "Treasure Mirror of All Heavens" and communicated with the fragmented world.
…
The fragmented world.
By this time, Fang Xi had roughly learned the language used by the humans in this tribe.
After eavesdropping for a while, I found out that this group of people called themselves ‘Witch People’ and the tribe they lived in was called ‘Black Mountain’!
The boy who picked him up was called 'Baji', and he had an older brother named 'Basong', who was the one who was killed for the treasure before.
The two Bagi brothers depended on each other and had a very good relationship. The last time the eldest brother died, he already had suspicions in his mind.
Furthermore, I knew that my brother had discovered two ‘opening stones’, so I kept searching for them secretly.
Speaking of this ‘opening stone’, we have to talk about the power system of these shamans!
On the school grounds, there is a triangular skull about the same size as a house, exuding a ferocious and primitive atmosphere.
A big man with a scar on his face is training a young man to practice martial arts:
"The so-called practice is to 'open the spiritual orifice'... There are infinite treasures in the human body, but they need a key to open them. This key is the 'spiritual orifice'!"
"The more 'spiritual apertures' a person has, the more treasures he can open. The highest number of spiritual apertures is nine, but at least one needs to be opened in order to enter the door of practice and become a 'witch' respected by everyone!"
"Today is the spiritual opening ceremony hosted by the 'Great Witch'! Whoever has the 'Opening Stone' among you, please come forward!"
Buggy quickly raised his hand: "I have it!"
He went out with several teenagers and took out his own "opening stone".
The big man looked at them one by one and nodded: "Very good... you go down and prepare. The great witch is preparing the sacrificial materials. The ceremony will be held in a day's time!"
"good!"
Buggy returned home happily and secretly clenched his fists: "Brother... I am finally going to enlighten myself and become a witch... Just wait, wait until I repay you..."
The next moment, a tall figure came towards me.
Fang Xi recognized that this was the young man who killed someone and took the treasure last time.
His face was gloomy, there were many dark tattoos all over his body, and his aura was actually much stronger than last time.
'If he was an ordinary warrior before, should he be considered an immortal cultivator with mana fluctuations now?'
Fang Xi was commenting secretly when he saw the lines on the young man's body shining brightly.
Then, a strong force came, knocking Buggy so hard that he vomited blood and flew out.
"Qinglang, what are you doing?"
Buggy covered his chest, blood started to flow from the corner of his mouth, and he immediately shouted.
"Boy, don't you know that in the tribe, when you see a 'witch', you have to bow your head and give way? I'm teaching you to respect the rules of the strong!"
Qing Lang stroked the tattoo on his body, smiled ferociously, saw the others looking at him, and strode away.
Among the tribesmen, it was not easy for him to kill people on the street.
However, it is within the tolerance range to severely injure the opponent before the spirit-opening ceremony and affect its spirit-opening effect.
'He is a smart man...'
Fang Xi watched all this without any intention of helping.
Don't say that he couldn't move his hands in the first place. Even if he could, he wouldn't take action based on Buggy's behavior last time when he cut himself with a knife and roasted himself on the fire.
I even look forward to a new 'mirror holder' after this young man dies!
After all, this young man looks so stupid and naive, he may not be able to survive smoothly and advance to a higher realm.
That's right, he is such a shabby mirror!
…
"Open the spirit!"
"Open the spirit!"
Among the Black Mountain tribes, the spiritual opening ceremony is the most important event.
A group of burly people wearing animal skins gathered at the edge of a triangular black stone platform, shouting and shouting.
And on the stone altar, there is a bronze tripod with three legs and two ears!
Inside the cauldron, there seemed to be a ferocious beast being cooked, emitting a strong smell of blood.
Next to him, a stooped white-haired old man wearing a black robe and a green tattoo on his face was constantly adding heat to the bottom of the cauldron.
'This person...'
Fang Xi's consciousness swept away, and the white-haired old man seemed to be aware of it and looked towards the audience.
He immediately restrained his consciousness and retreated into the fragments, not daring to show his head again.
"Is this person... actually able to detect my spiritual consciousness... comparable to a foundation-building practitioner?"
"A mere small tribe has such a powerful person. This world is quite worth looking forward to..."
…
"Spirit-opener, come on stage!"
The old wizard looked at the cauldron and made a hoarse sound.
A group of teenagers, including Baji, who was clutching his chest and looking painful, came to the cauldron.
The great witch glanced at Baji's situation and said in a deep voice, "Only those who open their spiritual apertures can become witches. They can engrave spells on their bodies, call for wind and rain, and capture thunder and lightning... You have been preparing for this for many years.
, I have known the process for a long time, now, be the first to step forward!"
A short and stocky young man wearing tiger skin stepped forward, raised the cauldron with both hands, shouted loudly, raised the entire cauldron, and swallowed the medicine in the cauldron with big mouthfuls.
The next moment, rays of light appeared on his body one after another, traveling like meridians, and the impact opened the spiritual orifices in his body!
Buzz!
Not long after, a light spot appeared on his chest.
Then, the second one, the third one...
The cauldron seemed quite heavy. At the later stage, the young man could no longer hold it up and quickly put the cauldron down.
"Ali, open the three spiritual orifices, go down!"
The great witch waved his hand and asked the happy-looking young man to retreat.
Next, there is a young girl.
There was still some baby fat on her cheeks, and her eyes were wild. She also shouted loudly, grabbed the cauldron, and drank the soup brewed by the ferocious beast.
However, only a spot of light appeared in his chest.
Even, as time passed, her arms became trembling and she could no longer hold the cauldron.
Seeing that the cauldron was about to fall, the great witch made a casual move, and the cauldron was suspended in mid-air: "Sangge... open a spiritual aperture, go down!"
The girl looked a little disappointed, but she still bowed and left.
Youngsters came forward one after another, most of them opened one or two 'spiritual orifices', but some could not open even one, and were led off the stage by their parents with a look of disappointment on their faces.
finally……
Buggy took a deep breath, regardless of the injury on his chest, opened his arms and grabbed the tripod ears: "Get up!"
He grabbed the huge copper cauldron and poured the boiling soup into his mouth.
The next moment, he felt severe pain in his sternum. Unable to bear it any longer, the beast cauldron fell and was caught firmly by the great witch.
The great witch looked at Badji's chest and shook his head.
I saw a spiritual orifice looming on Bagji's chest, its light dim.
"Baji, it's half-open... what a pity."
The great witch sighed, if the young man was not injured, at least he would still have a spiritual aperture.
Among the crowd, Qing Lang looked at this scene with a flash of joy on his face.
…
Not long after, those young men who had enlightened themselves were brought to the great witch.
"Witches are the sacrifices of heaven and earth, patterns are the sacrifices of the great road!"
The great witch's cloudy eyes glanced around and saw that Ba Ji was there, but he did not chase them away and continued his lecture.
After all, half a spiritual orifice... that can be considered a spiritual orifice.
"You have opened your spiritual aperture, and the next step is to practice the 'war pattern', brand yourself, and become a true 'witch'!"
"As little witches, you can only learn magic patterns!"
"In the cave behind my residence, there is an animal skin book. Every pattern on it is cherished. After you have truly introduced the Qi into your body, it will be open to you for three days. You must concentrate on understanding it and then choose the most suitable one.
My own 'Dharma Pattern'..."
"Next, I will teach you how to comprehend the world and practice 'witchcraft'..."
…
Fang Xi's consciousness was huddled among the fragments, but he was fascinated by what he heard: "This world...must have something to do with the legendary fairy world...Although it is called 'Witch', its cultivation method is still swallowing and refining.
The spiritual energy of heaven and earth...are there three thousand avenues, all leading to the same destination through different paths?"
He is now more certain that the world of fragments may also be one of the Hengsha worlds under the Immortal World.
Even the Dharma methods seem to have some similarities!
…
night.
In the shack.
Baji is working hard to operate the method taught by the great witch and absorb the vitality of heaven and earth with his own spiritual acupoints.
But the spiritual orifice in the middle of his chest was looming, it was a 'semi-spiritual orifice', much worse than a normal spiritual orifice.
After struggling for a long time, even the first step of introducing Qi into the body has not been completed.
"What should I do? No... I can't give up. I must become an official 'witch' and take revenge on the Blue Wolf!"
Buggy covered his chest with a ruthless look on his face.
Immediately, he saw... there seemed to be light coming out of the animal skin bag on his chest.
"This is...the treasure I got back then?"
Ba Ji pulled out the bronze mirror and saw ant-like characters appearing on the surface of the mirror. They were the "witchcraft characters" he recognized!
"The changes in the world, the way to use them, the wonderful changes are endless..."
"Open...open the spiritual scripture?!"
Buggy recognized the words one by one and rubbed his eyes.
What appears on this lens is a magic formula that can even increase the speed of absorbing the vitality of heaven and earth!
He didn't think much about it, after all, he had nothing to lose.
After he finished understanding, Baji immediately sat cross-legged and began to try his exercises...
Gradually, Baji seemed to feel the state of "forgetting both things and myself" mentioned in the scriptures. The vital energy of heaven and earth entered the body along the pores and circulated throughout the body...
