What Chen Yongnuo didn't expect was that just by practicing this small art of combining man and sword, his state of mind would change so much.
If he really stands at the top of the human world one day, I don't know how he will feel when the time comes.
This made him look forward to the next trip even more.
Zhen Qinglin did not keep Chen Yongnuo waiting. On a warm afternoon, he took a third-order spirit shuttle to Yunluo Mountain.
Traveling with him was one of his junior disciples, Zhang Zhijun. He was the youngest of three generations of disciples and had just entered the virtual stage not long ago.
After he had completely stabilized his realm, the elders on the mountain began to arrange for him to go down the mountain to practice.
This is the sect rule of Baiyang Sect. New disciples must stay in the mountain gate, learn various cultivation knowledge, or practice various cultivation skills, and are not allowed to leave the mountain easily. Generally speaking, they only need a little more than ten years.
In time, you can advance to the virtual stage, which also includes casting the Tao foundation. Of course, only the best disciples can cast the high-grade Tao foundation and finally transform into the high-grade Tao body. As for others, no matter how dull their understanding is,
With their superior qualifications, they will achieve at least a middle-grade Taoist body.
As long as the disciple advances to the virtual stage, he will start to go down the mountain to do tasks. Cultivation is not something done behind closed doors. Only by going through hardships can one wash away the brilliance and gain an improvement in one's state of mind, thereby firming up one's beliefs and advancing in practice.
Go further on the road.
This is also the philosophy of the sect. They are just your guides. The road is at your feet. How you want to go and how far you want to go all depends on your own beliefs and luck.
Therefore, during their first mission, the elders will arrange for a veteran to lead the novice. The specific mission level is not left to the novice to choose, but is determined by the strength of the veteran, with the highest level not exceeding level three.
Zhen Qing Lin Gui is a great master in the late stage of Xu Xing. He was one of the "Baiyang Eight Sons" in the past, and he also achieved a high-grade Taoist body.
Although there are only five of the former "Baiyang Eight Sons" left, and Zhen Qinglin is still the only one who has not advanced to the Golden Core stage. With his strength, it is naturally impossible to be assigned such small tasks as the first and second levels, so they
The mission this time is the third level.
In Zhen Qinglin's view, since one person is the leader, it doesn't actually make much difference to take one more person or two more people.
In addition to Zhang Tribute, he also attracted Chen Yongnuo and another Song Yiwei, a core female disciple of the Baiyang Song family.
Therefore, they temporarily formed a team of four.
After Zhen Qinglin brought Zhang Zhiqin to Yunluo Mountain, he sent a transmission note to Song Yiwei and asked her to come here to gather. He himself got off the soul shuttle and walked to Yunluo Mountain in person to meet Chen Yongnuo secretly.
After nearly three years of refinement, he has tried his best to refine the second-level peach wood sword. This time he plans to discuss it with Chen Yongnuo to see if he is sure to help him carve the third level.
Thunder Forbidden Law.
If you want to complete the ninth-level magic weapon, you need to engrave nine levels of a total of thirty-six forbidden laws. The first three levels of the magic weapon have only one complete forbidden law on each level. The difficulty of carving will be relatively low, as long as it is virtual.
With a period of cultivation, it can be roughly completed. For forbidden methods above the fourth level, the difficulty of depicting them suddenly increases a lot, and you must have a golden elixir or above to be able to do it.
The third-level magic weapon is equivalent to the late stage of the virtual form. Even if the magic weapon of the Lingbao series is quite spiritual, Chen Yongnuo is only at the early stage of the virtual form after all, and it is difficult to exert the power of the third-level magic weapon.
This is why the thunder seal in his hand has been completely refined, but he still refuses to advance it.
Another point is that the power of his spiritual consciousness is not enough to support him to depict the third level of forbidden law. After all, there is a big difference between the second level and the third level. After hearing this, Zhen Qinglin secretly said it was a pity. He can only put this matter aside for the time being.
, at least wait until Chen Yongnuo breaks through to the middle stage of the virtual form and starts refining the earthly evil energy.
After Song Yiwei arrived, their team of four was finally assembled.
When the clan members heard that Chen Yongnuo was going to follow them to venture outside, they all ran over to see him off.
They held high hopes, hoping that the four of them would be able to turn danger into good fortune and return home safely.
Father Chen knew that the world outside was dangerous, but he also knew that this was a necessary path. If he forcibly locked Chen Yongnuo in Yunluo Mountain, it would actually harm him.
"Third brother, you should be more careful when traveling this time. You have to remember that your main purpose this time is to increase your knowledge, and don't be too aggressive." After Chen's father finished speaking, he patted Chen Yongnuo's shoulder.
Chen Yongnuo nodded in agreement.
Then, he walked up to Yong Jing and said, "Don't put too much pressure on yourself. Everything will fall into place."
After finishing speaking, he thrust a small wooden box into Yong Jing's hand.
In the wooden box, there is a second-level awakening pill, which can assist in opening and breaking through the realm. This is what Chen Yongnuo specially asked for from Zhen Qinglin. Only the wealthy and aristocratic families of Daye or the eight major sects can have this.
A kind of elixir.
It is said that it is a second-level elixir, but in fact it is more valuable and rarer than a third-level elixir. As soon as this elixir appears on the market, it will be bought at a high price. Basically, it is only possible at some auctions.
Their presence appears.
At that time, Chen Yongnuo broke through the realm during an epiphany, and he also consumed the tea leaves from the old tea tree. However, when he broke through and gained enlightenment, it was a difficult and dangerous journey, and he almost failed.
If you have this enlightenment pill, you can increase your chances of winning at the sixth or seventh level with the certainty of breaking through the realm. Even if you fail to break through the realm, you can still save a life with this pill.
This opening pill was given to him by Zhen Qinglin's master. However, he was so high-spirited that he successfully advanced without the help of pills, so he kept this pill.
He had relied on Chen Yongnuo for many things in recent years, so he reciprocated the favor, which was regarded as an investment in favors.
"Brother, I understand." Yong Jing didn't know what was in the wooden box, but she understood her brother's sincere care for her.
Chen Yongnuo nodded to these familiar faces, and then resolutely boarded the third-level spirit shuttle to begin the journey he was extremely looking forward to.
In the soul shuttle, Zhen Qinglin looked at the farewell scene outside, curled his lips and said: "If we go smoothly, it will only be a month or two, why does it seem like we will never come back."
Song Yiwei, who was meditating with her eyes closed, instantly turned red to her ears. When she said goodbye to her family a few days ago, the scene was much more tragic than today. They had traveled thousands of miles before returning to the fairy city.
After Chen Yongnuo entered the spirit shuttle, Zhen Qinglin began to explain the tasks and precautions for this time.
Their mission this time was to go to Bishui to investigate the disappearance of Dongming Lake.
In the Baiyang realm, the Bishui area is closest to the southern border. There is a Tongtian River between them. It is said to be a river, but in fact it is more like a strait.
On the side of the clear water boundary near the strait, there are various small lakes dotted here and there. Dongming Lake is considered medium-sized.
Not long ago, Canglang Water Mansion near Dongming Lake discovered this matter and reported it to Baiyang Mountain.
