"Jiang Shinian, I have returned my life to you. If you still don't get out of the way, don't blame me for being rude."
Wearing a colorful robe, with a vivid nine-tailed scorpion embroidered on his chest, an old man stares thousands of feet away with an unfriendly expression. He is a young man wearing linen clothes, holding a wooden whip, wearing a bamboo hat, and has a dark complexion, resembling a farmer.
"Xie Hong, your master and disciple have committed an unforgivable crime by killing three million people of the Yunju clan. Today I will avenge these innocent souls who died in your hands."
Standing behind the old man, a middle-aged man who was also wearing colorful robes, tall and thin, and with a sinister expression whispered: "Master, Qing Emperor Jiang Shinian must practice what he says, and he has always protected those ants. I'm afraid what happened today will be difficult to do well."
.”
"Shut up, if you hadn't disobeyed me and were good at killing people and searching for their souls, how would I have been targeted by this evil star?"
The young man curled his lips, and a trace of dissatisfaction flashed in his eyes.
After searching for souls by himself, didn’t most of them fall into his hands in the end?
I thought I was some kind of good person.
"Jiang Shinian, I am under the gate of Wandu Cave in Baiman Mountain. The founder, King Pan, is one of the three thousand guests of Zixiao Palace in ancient times, a powerful master of Hunyuan. Today, if you understand this, then let it go. If you insist on being my master and disciple,
If you are against me, don’t blame me, Baimanshan Wanpomen, for not...!"
Before he could finish saying "You're welcome", Jiang Shinian, who had a cold look on his face, had already whipped him.
In an instant, a gigantic blue whip, like a pillar holding the sky, swept across. The speed was so fast that the master and disciple jumped.
Just pay back Xie Hong. With Daluo Jinxian's cultivation, even if something unexpected happens, he can quickly escape. But the disciple of Taiyi Jinxian behind him is in dire straits.
The physical body was exploded by a whip, and the soul was shattered into powder by the tyrannical power of Aoki. Only a little bit of the true spirit was left to return to the world.
Xie Hong's expression changed drastically. It was obvious that he had not expected that Jiang Shinian, who had a good reputation and profound merits in the southern Xinjiang cultivation world and was revered as the 'Qing Emperor', would be so ruthless.
Not daring to neglect, with a thought in my heart, a golden-edged red flag with a nine-tailed scorpion embroidered in the middle soared into the sky from Baihui Point.
As soon as the Dharma flag was waved, thick red mist rolled in, like the Yangtze River, rushing straight towards Jiang Shinian. The latter took out a large yellow-brown flag and waved it violently.
Like a long neck sucking water, it is swallowed up instantly.
When he looked again, Xie Hong was already hundreds of thousands of feet away, flying frantically into the distance.
"Humph, want to run?"
As soon as he took a step, a willow leaf-shaped talisman on his waist flashed with light, and his figure disappeared instantly.
When he reappeared, he was already behind Xie Hong. Chu whip stirred up a mighty cyan light, and when he waved it, the space spread out like water.
Chu Ban made no sound and came to the back of the opponent's head in the blink of an eye.
Xie Hong's face suddenly changed as he realized that there was wind in the back of his head. Without caring about anything else, he quickly activated his life Gu.
A three-foot-long giant scorpion with a red body and eight tails suddenly appeared behind him.
'Bang'!
Before the giant scorpion could activate its poisonous tail, it was already hit by Chu Whip and his brains exploded.
Xie Hong's body was greatly shaken, and he suffered heavy injuries when his life Gu died.
Even so, he did not dare to look back at all.
The 'Qing Emperor' Jiang Shinian is a master of medicine and poison, and he is the best at restraining poisonous cultivators like him.
Especially the 'Plague Emperor's Dao Banner', which can be said to be able to ward off all kinds of poisons. He could only use 50% of his 100% ability, which is why he ran away in embarrassment.
"Damn it, I really didn't look at the almanac when I went out, how could I encounter this evil star?"
Xie Hong cursed wildly in his heart and almost used all his strength to suck the milk.
He affirmed that in the past three Pluralistic Society practices, he had never flown so fast as at this moment.
My heart was shocked, and a fatal sense of crisis rushed towards the spiritual platform crazily.
The practice of three polysects has made Xie Hong very confident in his intuition.
He hurriedly raised his natal spirit flag and held it behind him.
'Bang'!
Loud as thunder.
I felt an overwhelming and astonishing power coming along the 'Scorpion God Flag', my chest and abdomen shook, and 'Wow!' a mouthful of blood spurted out.
"Damn it, is this bastard really a Qi practitioner?"
Before the thought came to an end, I felt severe pain in my back, and a more powerful force burst out.
With a scream, Xie Hong fell straight to the ground like a kite with its string broken.
Jiang Shinian swung his whip in his hand, and streaks of green wood divine light, like ropes of lightning, were caught in the scorpion flood below.
The latter felt the crisis and his vicious nature broke out.
His expression was stern and his tone was fierce.
"Jiang Shinian, today's affairs are by no means finished."
While he was speaking, a cicada the size of an adult's palm, with a sky-blue body and several strange runes between its eyebrows, appeared above his head.
‘Eh’!
The inexplicable sound made the two of them startled.
Before they could come to their senses.
"Certainly!"
A soft drink.
Everything within a radius of thousands of miles seemed to be frozen instantly.
Xu Junming stretched out his hand and made Xie Hong fly over involuntarily.
After taking off the small azure cicada on his head, he waved and threw him to Jiang Shinian.
"Since he is your enemy, it is up to you to decide."
After regaining his freedom, Jiang Shinian used his magic power to support the sealed Xie Hong. He didn't remember to deal with it. He took two steps forward with excitement and fell to his knees.
"Disciple pays homage to his mentor."
"I haven't seen you for millions of years, and your cultivation has become even deeper."
Xu Junming nodded with satisfaction.
Even without the help of the Dayan Mirror, he could clearly feel the light of merit radiating from the depths of Jiang Shinian's soul.
Yiyuanhui killed demons and taught medicine, which accumulated a lot of merit for him.
However, Jiang Shinian did not break through Hunyuan.
After the Yuanhui came down, his cultivation level still stayed at Daluo Jinxian Perfection.
It's not that he doesn't want to make a breakthrough, but that he wants to practice Qingmu Dao and Alchemy Dao at the same time, and then he can seek a breakthrough after comprehending these two Dao at the same time and reaching the Hunyuan realm.
Otherwise, with his qualifications, Yiyuanhui would be enough to advance to Hunyuan Celestial Immortal.
"A disciple never dares to forget his teacher's teachings, and never dares to slack off in his practice."
He held Jiang Shinian's left arm with his right hand and lifted him up.
"Come with me."
Jiang Shinian nodded, waved the Emperor of Plague flag, put away Xie Hong, and followed Xu Junming to Chongshan Residence.
Come to the backyard pavilion.
After the master and apprentice took their seats.
"Have you had any doubts about your practice recently?"
Jiang Shinian was shocked and quickly asked the question that had been bothering him for a long time.
Xu Junming's Qingmu Dao benefited from the Dragon Emperor and is now in the realm of Hunyuan True Immortal.
Alchemy benefited from Taoist Tiangong, and it has reached the realm of Hunyuan Xuanxian.
Jiang Shinian's doubts were easily solved, which greatly improved the latter's moral conduct.
While he was enlightened, Xu Junming looked at the small azure cicada in his palm with great interest.
He had only heard of this thing before, but had never seen it before.
"Teacher, what kind of spiritual beast is this cicada?"
Jiang Shinian, who woke up from his enlightenment, asked curiously.
"In ancient times, in addition to spiritual beasts, there were also various spiritual insects in the world. Some powerful spiritual insects, even if they were encountered by Hunyuan masters, they would have to stay away."
Speaking of this, he couldn't help but think of the gold-eating ants he encountered in the chaotic boulder.
If it was not him who entered there at the beginning, but a Hunyuan monk who became enlightened by the laws of water, fire, etc., he would definitely be eaten by gold-eating ants until no bones are left.
"...Therefore, there are many qi practitioners, especially casual practitioners, who collect spiritual insects to defend themselves and protect the law."
Jiang Shinian nodded clearly.
Casual cultivators are basically monks with three things: no treasure, no inheritance, and no elixir.
Feeding spiritual insects is a relatively cost-effective means of protecting the road.
"...Different spiritual insects have different powers and functions. Monks in ancient times summarized the top nine types of spiritual insects."
"They are the Time Cicada, Sky Green Snake, Six-winged Golden Silkworm, Nine-tailed Earth Scorpion, Multi-eyed Golden Centipede, Three-legged Golden Toad, Nine-headed Insect, Sword Butterfly and Bloodbearded Mosquito."
"Each of these nine types of spiritual insects has a power that is no less powerful than that of a Hunyuan monk when it reaches adulthood."
"The little green cicada in my hand is the time cicada, the first of the nine ancient insects. It is a strange insect that is born with the way of time."
Xu Junming looked at the Time Cicada in his hand, which should have just hatched and was still not very powerful, with a touch of joy in his eyes.
According to legend, the adult Time Cicada has the ability to change the flow of time and even transcend time.
Born to be tyrannical.
However, this kind of spiritual cicada is too rare. From the beginning to the present, the number of time cicadas that can be recorded does not exceed one palm.
In addition, the growth period of Time Cicada is extremely long, often requiring several or even dozens of Yuanhui's time.
Things that are naturally powerful and rare are rare in number and slow to develop. This is also the normal law of heaven.
There are gains and there are losses.
"Congratulations to the teacher for getting this spiritual insect."
Xu Junming smiled and nodded, took it in his hand and examined it for a moment, then handed it to Jiang Shinian.
Look at his stunned look.
"Take it, this is your trophy."
"Teacher, this is not okay...!"
He waved his hand to interrupt him.
"No need to say more. I don't need this as a teacher."
As soon as his heart moved, a powerful rhythm of time erupted.
Although it was immediately withdrawn, it was enough for Jiang Shinian to clearly feel it.
"What a powerful time rhythm."
"My master's accomplishments in time will not be matched by this little guy even if he becomes an adult in the future. And I don't have the time to take care of him, so I will simply leave it to you."
"Thank you teacher."
Jiang Shinian is sincere.
He is not a fool. Of course he can see that this is the treasure that Master intentionally gave him.
Otherwise, with the teacher's attainments in time, he could easily slow down the time ratio thousands of times, and it wouldn't even take a Yuan Hui for this time cicada to grow up.
"Have your medical notes been written?"
Jiang Shinian originally planned to spend thousands of years summing up his experience, and finally compile the knowledge given to him by his teacher into a book.
But when he actually started practicing medicine and started learning alchemy, he realized that it was not easy to write a medical book.
The prehistoric era was so vast and there were so many kinds of vegetation that it took Jiang Shinian nearly half of Yuanhui's time just to sort out their medicinal properties.
Not to mention the prescriptions that match each other.
"A disciple has failed his teacher."
Seeing his guilty look, Xu Junming waved his hand.
"Haha, this matter is not easy. Even if I want to travel all over the world and compile all the herbs, medicines and stones, a Yuanhui can't do it."
"I'm surprised that you persevered and achieved what you have achieved now."
"Teacher, don't worry. No matter how long it takes, I will do my best to write this medical book."
