Xu Dao stayed in Youjian Talisman Shop for three or four days in a row. During these three or four days, he made many friends and formed many good relationships. After finishing all the chores, he did not return to the cave outside Shuiwu.
, but went straight to seclusion in the Talisman Shop.
Although the quiet room in Fudian is not as safe as his cave, it does not require him to go outside the water dock, which not only saves him a lot of legwork, but also prevents the Wuzhao tribe from killing him by surprise.
Although he has been favored by Taoist Master Jin Lin and his status in the Taoist palace has been improved, Xu Dao still feels that he has to act cautiously and cause as little trouble as possible. Of course, if trouble insists on entangling him, he will
Kill it with one sword.
After another five or six days of hard work, I adjusted my condition and recovered completely from my injuries. However, there was still one thing that had not been resolved yet.
Those were the two or three thousand mortals that Xu Dao was searching near the snow-capped mountains. He had not released them yet. They were still suppressing them in the flying flags and keeping them in the inner world.
The reason why they were not released on the way back to the Dao Palace was because Xu Dao had no enmity with the other party, and there was some cause and effect. Although it was not necessary to enshrine these mortals, he could not bear to let these people scatter in the wilderness and in other places.
, devoured by demons and ghosts, and enslaved by others.
However, Xu Dao did not starve these mortals. Instead, he spent some talisman money to feed them with food and water. The mortals even got a lot of benefits from this. After waiting for this period of time, he directly ordered to give them
Just find a small county town to live in.
The county town that was destroyed by the black-faced giant ghost last time was a good choice since it was now sparsely populated and dilapidated.
In this way, Xu Dao felt relaxed and left the Youjian Talisman Shop with great anticipation, heading straight to Jamsil.
Not long after, he arrived at the palace where he had last taught his skills and set up a soul tablet. Now Xu Dao naturally didn't need anyone else to lead the way and rushed in directly.
It wasn't until after entering the inner hall that a Taoist priest sitting cross-legged in the hall opened his eyes slightly. Without looking at him, an oppressive aura came from him, which was even worse than that of Zhuang Bufan after he was promoted to the realm of refining.
Be chilly.
Obviously, the person in the hall is a Taoist priest who has been practicing Gang for many years, and has been practicing for two or three hundred years. Seeing this, Xu Dao paused slightly, but he was not surprised. The only thing that made him raise his eyes was the sight in front of him.
This person was not the same person he saw last time.
This made Xu Dao secretly murmur in his heart: "The number of Taoist priests in the Erhai Taoist Palace is over a hundred, and I don't know how many Taoist priests there are in the realm of refining... It seems that they are not uncommon,"
While thinking to himself, he nodded to the other party and shouted: "I have seen the Taoist priest, and the poor Taoist asked to enter the silkworm room to have a look."
After saying this, Xu Dao took out the decree given by Taoist Master Jin Lin from his sleeve.
There was a flash of golden light, and the Lian Gang Taoist priest sitting cross-legged in the hall immediately narrowed his eyes and looked towards Xu Dao.
After pondering for a few breaths, the Lian Gang Taoist priest slowly spoke out: "In the past few days, I heard that some Taoist friends in the palace have been summoned by Taoist Master Jin Lin. I think you are one of them."
This person was not very enthusiastic in his words, but his attitude was gentle, completely different from the Lian Gang Taoist priest last time. When Xu Dao saw that the other party took the initiative to speak and wanted to talk, he also started chatting with him eagerly.
After some pleasantries, the two exchanged names. The other person was also a Taoist priest in the master-disciple lineage, and was called "Wan Shuangwen".
When Taoist priest Wan Shuang heard that Xu Dao was the rumored remnant of Shezhao, his attitude towards Xu Dao turned out to be even gentler. After some insidious investigation, Xu Dao just discovered that this person's roots were somewhat similar to those he had made up.
.
This Wanshuangwen Taoist priest is not an ordinary monk or a master and disciple, but a member of the Wuzhao tribe. For some reasons, this man not only deviated from the Wuzhao tribe, but also changed his surname to his mother's surname, completely harmonious.
The five imperial edicts drew clear boundaries.
This aroused Xu Dao's interest. He guessed that there must be many stories happening in it. It was just the first time the two met, and the other party didn't know how to communicate. He could only wait for him to come out of isolation and go to the market to inquire about it.
After a few pleasantries, the other party inspected Xu Dao's decree as required, then extended his hand to invite Xu Dao in, and the two parted ways.
In addition to making acquaintance with this person, Xu Dao also got some information about the Jamsil from the other party. Although it was not a secret, it would make it easier for him to make full use of the Jamsil within three days and three nights. It was considered a small
Small gains.
Having experienced the last time he entered a silkworm's room, Xu Dao, who was familiar with driving a car, passed through numerous mechanisms and formations and entered a silkworm's room.
The Jamsil is still the same as last time. The appearance is just like an ordinary quiet room. Although the aura is rich, it is not as good as the one in the fairy garden. Fortunately, the biggest use of the Jamsil is not here.
In the darkness, Xu Dao slowly closed his eyes and sat down cross-legged. He first absorbed the magic power in his body to adjust his state, and then calmed his mind and made his distracting thoughts disappear.
After everything was ready, he took out the golden light scroll from his sleeve and slowly unfolded it.
With a brush, streaks of brilliant golden light were immediately released from the scroll, instantly illuminating the silkworm room with a radius of only a few feet, as if the top and bottom were painted with a layer of gold paint. Before Xu Dao opened his eyes, he felt bright and clean.
As promised.
Buzz!
Another piece of golden text floated out from the scroll. Xu Dao had already read the meaning. It was roughly what the Taoist master once told him. But now, after these golden words floated out, they were circling and squirming,
It condensed into three simple characters in the air:
"Mountains and Seas".
As soon as these three words appeared, Xu Dao instantly felt a barbaric aura rushing out of them, making his soul tremble uncontrollably.
Just when Xu Dao thought that the surrounding environment was going to change, a force of absorption was released from the three simple words, causing Xu Dao's soul to shake subconsciously and try to leave the body.
"Why is this?"
Xu Dao was slightly shocked by such a turn of events. You must know that he is a Taoist priest who practices both immortality and martial arts. Not only is his soul heavy and solid, but his body is also strong. In addition, there is a square talisman suppressing his brain. His soul cannot be shaken by ordinary means.
of.
However, only three words "Mountains and Seas" appeared in front of him. As soon as they appeared, his soul was shaken. Xu Dao was really surprised, even frightened.
Fortunately, he took a few deep breaths and suppressed the throbbing in his heart. If Taoist Master Jinlin wanted to kill him, he could have subdued him on the spot in the fairy garden without going through all the trouble.
In fact, what Xu Dao doesn't know is that the Mountain and Sea Map is a valuable treasure in the Erhai Taoist Palace and is among the magic weapons. If an ordinary Taoist encounters it, regardless of whether he is from the Immortal Way or the Martial Arts, his soul will be directly destroyed.
Catch him, how could he be so shaken?
After calming down, Xu Dao also reacted. He originally thought that the so-called mountain and sea map would jump out from somewhere and appear in his eyes for him to observe, but now it seems.
It's not that he's looking at the picture, but the mountain and sea picture wants to absorb his soul into it.
"That's it." After a few final hesitations, Xu Dao simply let go of the suppression, and his soul suddenly emerged from the Tianling Cap and turned into a human form.
Hiss! The three words transformed into the Taoist's decree immediately sprinkled golden light on his soul to protect it. Then the golden light words circled and formed a hole.
Whoosh, Xu Dao's soul immediately turned into a point of light and entered the hole.
boom!
An astonishing feeling of wildness penetrated into Xu Dao's soul, causing his consciousness to tremble instantly. He felt as if he had turned into an ant, weak and helpless, and there seemed to be countless monsters in front of him.
The beast is walking.
The opponent's cry seemed to pierce the sky, his roar could break the clouds, his running behavior could make the earth crack, his figure could block the sky and the sun, and he was as tall as a mountain. In comparison, Xu Dao seemed insignificant.
Fortunately, this feeling only passed by in a flash, so he thought he was hallucinating.
When he was able to "open his eyes" and look around, he found that he had escaped from the dim silkworm room, swimming like a mayfly, as if he was floating in the air with nowhere to stay.
Only a huge picture appeared in his eyes.
This scroll has two axes, as big as two poles. Between the two axes there are rising clouds, the sky above is yellow and the sky below is yellow. There are thick mountains across the scroll, there are rivers surging, the sea water rises and falls, and changes in darkness.
This should be the mountain and sea map in the Taoist Palace. It really copied the picture of mountains and sea.
At a glance, Xu Dao felt that the place he was standing on was extremely high and he could take in the entire world.
He noticed that there was only one continent in the picture, and there were many islands dotted around the continent. Otherwise, it was all black and blue water.
It's just that he didn't notice the various giant beasts he just sensed. There were only dead things in the picture, and no living things. It was vast and vast, but there was no life.
"It is said that this picture is a copy of the heaven and earth by immortals, imitating all things in the world. Is this the general shape of the heaven and earth here? I wonder where the boundary of the Wu Kingdom is?"
Xu Dao simply searched the map of mountains and seas, but did not find any special land boundary that appeared in his eyes. At the same time, he vaguely remembered that this map was drawn by the Yuanying Ghost Fairy thousands of years ago.
He suddenly thought: "I wonder if the appearance of the heaven and earth at that time is different from the appearance of the heaven and earth today."
But Xu Dao immediately realized that even for Taoists, thousands of years of time are not unimaginable and cannot be crossed, let alone for the heaven and earth itself.
Great changes have taken place.
Although he was shocked by such a picture of mountains and seas, Xu Dao would not forget that the reason he looked at this picture was to visualize the underworld under the Nine Netherworld, and to cultivate the magic power in his soul into the underworld magic power.
Xu Dao immediately started searching among them to see what was similar to the legendary Huangquan. But as soon as his mind moved, he felt his body shape change, and he suddenly rushed towards the mountain and sea map below.
His speed was so fast that the mountains and the earth seemed to be flying towards his "face" like flying arrows.
Seeing that he was about to hit him, even with Xu Dao's certainty, he couldn't help but his heart was beating wildly. With such a collision, would his soul be shattered into dregs on the spot?
Fortunately, although the mountain and sea map looked solid, when Xu Dao bumped into it, the objects were like virtual images and did not hurt him. Or it could be said that his soul was nothingness. Although the mountains and seas in the map had bodies, they were not restrained.
The overwhelming power of the soul.
The vision changed. Xu Dao did not escape into the darkness, but in a blink of an eye, he found that he was on the back of the mountain and sea map.
In the void, there are thick water veins, mountains, and faint black water condensed under the map. The former are densely packed and tangled like the roots of plants, supporting the mountains, rivers and seas on the front of the mountain and sea map.
And there was a thick water vein shining brightly, appearing in Xu Dao's eyes. It spread endlessly, with a nine-curved corridor, black and yellow, running through the entire picture like a giant dragon, like a meridian in a mountain and sea map.
Without anyone else telling him, Xu Dao immediately knew that this water vein was the legendary Jiuyou Huangquan! And with the push of a force, he rushed towards the Huangquan at close range.
When Xu Dao came back to his senses, he looked around blankly and found that he was already in the Yellow Spring, with a vast expanse of yellow water in front of him, uncertain in reality and surging incessantly.
Xu Dao cannot describe in words how big and wide it is, how thick it is, and how fast its water is. He can only feel that an individual is indescribably insignificant compared to such great things in heaven and earth, and his heart is filled with emotion.
Subdued.
But immediately, Xu Dao remembered that he wanted to visualize this underworld, absorb its spirit, and borrow its power to cleanse his soul and improve his foundation. He should not be overwhelmed by it and tremble and dare not act.
He immediately cleared his mind and visualized such a huge thing in his soul, imagining that he had transformed into this underworld, coming from the netherworld and going into the void.
It's just that although Xu Dao has looked at the other person from near and far, it is obvious that he is not a genius. Just one glance cannot imprint his body, let alone the underworld meaning.
Xu Dao had to open his eyes and wanted to take a few more glances.
But at this time, he found that only the Nine Nether Yellow Spring was left in front of him, and the rest of the mountains, rivers, seas, underground water veins, and the mountain and sea map itself had all disappeared.
At the same time, he can move around at will, and can touch the underworld in front of him from near or far, up or down, inside or outside.
Xu Dao instantly became energetic.
After he got acquainted with it, he seemed to have become a god in charge of the underworld. Not only did he fly up and down in and out of the underworld, he could even stop the eternal rushing water with a thought.
This is obviously a wonderful use of the Mountain and Sea Chart, which can assist Taoists in visualizing things. Under such convenient and intuitive conditions, even Taoists with low qualifications can successfully memorize it in a very short time.
Although Xu Dao was not a genius, his aptitude was above average. After a few hours, he imprinted this huge water vein into his soul and attempted to harvest its spirit to activate the underworld in his brain.
Finally, after several more hours passed, Xu Dao's soul was shaken.
"It's done!"
In a daze, he felt that his soul had an indescribable meaning. His soul, which was still a bit gloomy, had completely changed, breaking away from the ghostly aura and becoming vast and thick.
In Xu Dao's soul, there is a river surging, coming from the netherworld to the void, connecting the heaven and the earth, causing the talismans in his soul to sway and wash away continuously.
Before he could taste the beauty of it, a force of absorption immediately appeared around his soul, and he was immediately kicked out of the Mountain and Sea Map.
