Li Xuangang originally practiced Jin Geng Wu Xiang Jue, and there were many other clan members who practiced this technique like him.
This technique is not just a piece of junk on the street. Among the techniques collected in the family library, it is considered to be a fine product. If all goes well, it will be enough for the monks who practice it to successfully break through to the golden elixir stage.
But the Nine Corpses Returning Technique that Li Xuangang is holding in his hand is too tempting. Although he only has the first three levels of skills, judging from his training needs, it is enough for him to reach the golden elixir stage.
Breaking through to the golden elixir stage is something Li Xuangang doesn't dare to hope for now, so in his opinion, the third level of the Nine Corpses Returning Art is enough for him.
Even if hundreds of years pass, and I am lucky enough to form a golden elixir, then with the powerful strength and longevity of the golden elixir stage, I may not be able to find the remaining skills.
He is very willing to practice the Nine Corpses Return to Origin Art, but the reason why he has not started practicing yet is because he has another concern.
That is, according to the general outline of the Nine Corpses Returning to the Origin Art and Jin Xianzong's training experience, even if you complete the practice of the Nine Corpses Returning to the Origin Art, you may not be able to refine a zombie like Zombie Guard.
After looking through all the classics in his hands, Li Xuangang has yet to find a successful example.
In fact, before he obtained the Nine Corpses Return to Origin Art, he had no idea that such a strange zombie refining method existed in this world.
No matter in the family library, or in the entire eastern border of Chaoyang Continent, or even in the Corpse Ghost Sect, no one has ever heard of such corpse refiners named Zombie Guards.
He closed his eyes and struggled in his heart several times. When he opened his eyes again, Li Xuangang finally made up his mind.
Even if you can't refine zombies like Zombie Guard, it's not impossible to simply make it your main skill. Besides, in addition to the technique of refining Zombie Guard, there are also many other great skills.
Practical spells.
Having made up his mind, Li Xuangang prepared to start the Nine Corpses Return to Yuan Art within two months of leaving Taiqiu Mountain. He would then start practicing systematically when he arrived in Mangshanfang City.
Just when he had just opened the book on the Nine Corpses Returning to Yuan Jue, and before he could take a closer look, someone suddenly came looking for him outside his cave.
While wondering who would come to find him, Li Xuangang put away the Nine Corpses Guiyuan Jue and got up from the stone bed.
Go to the entrance of the cave and open the cave's restrictions.
The bright morning light came through and fell on Li Xuangang's slightly narrowed eyes. A strange yet familiar figure gradually became clear in his sight.
"Friend Daoist Li!"
Although the voice was a bit soft and weak, Li Xuangang could hear strong resentment in it.
An unnatural smirk appeared on his face first, and then he immediately adjusted his posture and forced his expression back to calm.
Li Xuangang's face was reflected in the sun, and he pretended to be calm and replied:
"Fellow Daoist Han, I haven't seen you for many years!"
...
There are a total of nine side peaks in Taiqiu Mountain, seven of which do not have any spiritual veins, so they have been left unused by the family.
As for the remaining two, one is called Danfeng. There is a vein on it, which is where the family's alchemy pavilion is located, and most of the family's red pill grass is planted on it. When Li Xuangang first started to make alchemy for the family, every month
You have to go up there once.
The other one, named Linghu Peak, has an incomplete first-order low-grade spiritual vein. Moreover, this spiritual vein is located in a small lake at the top of Linghu Peak. In addition to feeling the spiritual energy in the lake, other peaks on the mountain have
The place is not much different from an ordinary wilderness.
Li Xuangang didn't know much about this Linghu Peak. He only knew that due to some defects in the spiritual veins on it, apart from planting some aquatic spiritual plants in the lake on the top of the mountain, the entire Linghu Peak had no redundant spiritual energy.
Come and open up other spiritual fields, medicinal gardens, or caves for cultivation.
For the family, this Linghu Peak is somewhat tasteless and a pity to abandon. Therefore, the Li clan members, including Li Xuangang, rarely climb this side peak.
Now, Han Yuru is taking him to climb to the top of Linghu Peak.
The dense woods had obviously been pruned, and a path paved with bluestones extended out from the chaos.
Due to the continuous autumn rain not long ago, some moss had grown on both sides of the path. Their shoes felt wet and slippery when they stepped on the bluestone pavement.
As Han Yuru walked, she turned back and said to Li Xuangang:
"This path was paved by Yu Heng and I along the original path for a long time. In the past, whenever it rained, this path would be very muddy. After it was paved with bluestones, it was much easier to walk than before.
"
Li Xuangang followed her, and there was a faint fragrance. Although he was still a little embarrassed when facing Han Yuru, smelling this smell made him feel at ease inexplicably.
He asked:
"Fellow Daoist Han, as far as I know, these are just low-level spiritual plants grown by some families and have little value. Why did you and Yu Heng spend so much effort?"
Upon hearing the doubt, Han Yuru did not stop, but turned her head and looked at Li Xuangang, who subconsciously took a step back.
"You'll know when we get up there. If I hadn't heard from Yu Heng that you could solve this problem, I wouldn't have brought you up here."
Although he didn't know what the other party was referring to, it still aroused his curiosity. So Li Xuangang also quickened his pace a little, allowing himself to walk side by side with her.
Otherwise, he would always walk behind her, as if he was her junior.
The two of them were silent for a long time, and both climbed the mountain quietly. Since it was early morning, the fog in the mountains had not dispersed yet, and the branches stretching out on both sides of the path still contained some dew.
By the time they were about to reach the top of the mountain, their clothes had already been soaked by the dew.
Seeing that she was almost reaching her destination, Han Yuru quickened her pace and crossed several steps in succession. Li Xuangang had no choice but to follow behind.
After a while, the two came to a small lake.
A faint layer of mist appeared on the lake in front of him. As soon as he got closer, Li Xuangang felt a weak spiritual energy fluctuation in it.
In the midst of a cloud of water vapor, a small bridge made of wood penetrates deep from the shore.
"follow me!"
Han Yuru greeted.
Walking in the water vapor, Li Xuangang felt wet on one hand and very refreshing on the other.
When he quietly turned to look at Han Yuru next to him, a few strands of hair on her forehead had been wetted by the mist, and were now sticking obediently to her fair face.
There were also some extremely tiny water droplets on her long eyelashes. Moving her eyes upward, she found that the same willow-leaf-like eyebrows were also like this.
Li Xuangang subconsciously raised his hand and touched his eyebrows, and sure enough, they were also wet.
After passing through the mist, the two reached the center of the small lake. At this time, Han Yuru finally stopped. She stretched out a finger, pointed at a small piece of spiritual plant not far in front of her, and said to Li Xuangang:
"This lotus plantation has been going smoothly since I took it over, but recently I discovered a problem."
Han Yuru said this, paused, and seemed to be organizing her words.
"Originally, at this time of year, there should be a large area of blue lotus flowers here, but now you see, these lotus flowers show no sign of blooming."
Li Xuangang suddenly realized that it was because of this. He turned his head, looked at Han Yuru, smiled as warmly as possible, and said:
"You want me to help you take a look?"
The latter nodded slightly.
Easily climbing over the bamboo railing, Li Xuangang stood on the water and walked step by step towards the place pointed by Han Yuru.
The closer he got to the lotus, the colder Li Xuangang felt. He frowned, and when he got there, frost had already condensed on the corners of his clothes.
Looking carefully at the lotus leaf in front of him, Li Xuangang suddenly felt that it looked familiar. He thought about it in his mind for a while and finally realized it.
"Isn't this the second-level spiritual plant Ice Heart Lotus?"
If nothing else happened, he should have bought this batch of Bing Xinlian from the auction pavilion in Wujiangfang City with his seventh uncle Li Changzhi.
Today, he still clearly remembers the face of the casual cultivator who sold them the Ice Heart Lotus seeds.
Han Yuru, who stayed on the wooden bridge, saw Li Xuangang squatting in front of Bing Xinlian for a long time, and finally couldn't help but asked on the wooden bridge:
"How's it going? Do you know the reason?"
Li Xuangang walked back, and every time he took a step on the lake, ripples formed in circles.
When he returned to the wooden bridge, he was silent for a moment and then slowly said:
"There is a lot of water vapor here, which was originally very suitable for the growth of Ice Heart Lotus, but the fog here is too heavy, and due to the spiritual vein in the lake, the lake water is constantly transpiring into mist, and the sunken terrain makes the
The fog never dissipates all year round, and it is all concentrated on the ice lotus."
"As for why it doesn't bloom, I think it's because there is no sunshine here all year round. I have read the ice lotus planting classics, which mentioned this phenomenon."
Hearing that Li Xuangang had found the reason, Han Yuru hurriedly asked:
"So what's the solution?"
Li Xuangang said as he walked out:
"Actually, it doesn't matter. I just need to set up a magic circle here to disperse excess water vapor."
Speaking of this, Li Xuangang couldn't help but glance at Han Yuru, wondering:
"Why did the eighth uncle ask her to take care of these Bing Xinlian? She doesn't even know such a simple reason."
Although she was somewhat dubious about Li Xuangang's judgment, Han Yuru decided to come over tomorrow to set up a magic circle and try it out.
Now that the two of them had figured out the reason, they didn't stop here any longer and walked down the mountain together.
