Looking at the mountain walls, there are about hundreds of caves dotted here and there. There are very few new ones, and most of them were dug by the predecessors who competed for the red fruits here in previous years.
Moreover, there are more caves below and fewer caves above. Nowadays, there are many caves with the sealing talisman light shining down below, and there are few caves without mana fluctuations above.
Obviously, most of the fellow disciples who came early chose the cave below. After all, it is more convenient for entry and exit, so it is more popular among everyone.
Xu Junming examined it for a moment, grabbed Liu Dehua with his left hand, raised his right hand, and the rope that bound the body flew out like lightning, grabbed a rock protruding from the cliff, and drove the two of them up.
‘Bang’, the sole of his foot used the force between the cliffs and landed at the entrance of a cave that was two meters high and one meter wide.
"Just choose this one!"
"I gonna go see!"
Liu Dehua ran in excitedly.
"Brother, it's so spacious inside!"
After taking out a sealing charm to seal the entrance of the cave, Xu Junming walked in.
This cave is indeed not small. In addition to the main hall with stone tables and chairs in the middle, there are four stone rooms at the back.
Use the dust remover to clean it up and it will be a nice place to live.
"During the competition, let's stay here."
Liu Dehua nodded in agreement.
"Junior brother, I've been traveling for nearly two days in a row. I'm a little tired. I'm going to take a rest first. You can do whatever you want. Don't look for me if you have nothing to do."
"I know, senior brother!"
Looking at the closed stone door, Liu Dehua muttered: "This cultivator has gone into seclusion again."
Although he traveled for two days, he didn't feel tired at all. He couldn't believe that Xu Junming, who was already in the middle stage of congenital disease, would be tired.
Xu Junming really wants to practice.
Although he had been doing all four things for two days, he could study Taoism while traveling. But such efficiency could not keep up with his full efforts.
If you miss two days of homework, you should make up for it when you have time. Otherwise, if you fail at one step, you will fail step by step. Habits will become natural and self-discipline will no longer exist.
After catching up on his homework, Xu Junming took out Zi Yanruohai's dharma bag and his own talisman bag.
As he practiced more and more talismans, the level of the talisman bag gradually improved. Especially the fifteen newly-refined talismans of the middle-grade Dongzhen, which could not be cultivated with the current talisman bag.
He needs a talisman bag that is at least of genuine quality.
"A simple talisman bag has too limited effect. Moreover, yellow talismans, and even Dongzhen's low-grade spiritual talismans, are almost useless to me."
"It would be great if we could cultivate a magic weapon that can not only warm and nourish it, place spiritual talismans, but also gather the power of all the spiritual talismans to fight against the enemy, and at the same time, it can be used separately!"
As soon as the idea came up, it took root in his mind.
Xu Junming subconsciously recalled all the records of weapon refining that he had seen, as well as the methods of cultivating magical weapons. However, it is not easy to create a method of cultivating magical weapons from scratch.
Formations, talismans, restrictions, hand techniques, materials, and how to advance later all need to be considered.
This is not something that can be done in a day or two.
However, with this idea, he also lost interest in practicing the magic bag. He put away the two things and took out his magic weapon.
The Demon-Subduing Golden Lock, the Purple Sun Lamp, and the newly trained White Bone Needle are already top-notch middle-grade magic weapons that have completed the Six Paths of Treasure Taboo.
The statue of Guandi has entered the blue basic talisman stage with his understanding of the way of divine fighting, and has advanced to the top grade.
This is the only good way to fight with God. By borrowing the power of heaven and earth, as long as you realize it, the Guandi Statue will advance. It does not need to gather enough spiritual energy like other magic weapons.
However, the disadvantage is that the Guandi Statue is only a container that draws on the power of heaven and earth, and has no other function.
The Xuanyin Flag absorbed the Yin veins of Tanhua Village, and the 365 Xuanyin silk threads and the Netherworld Iron used as the pole were already top-quality spiritual materials.
But now his understanding of Xuanyin and his weapon refining skills are not yet able to advance this treasure to the best level!
But it doesn't matter, he has only been in Taoism for half a year, and he will have enough time to polish it in the future.
What he wants to do most now are two things. First, to replace the Gu Dao inheritance of the Flying Scorpion Gu with the treasure he wants. Second, to get rid of the big trouble of the 'Yin Swallowing Jar'.
This thing is not suitable for him to use. If he uses it, he has to worry about the Gu Master from Chi You Cave coming to cause trouble. It is simply a dilemma.
"I don't know if Master is coming this time. If he is, I will ask if the sect wants this thing. If so, I will give it away in exchange for some useful treasures."
However, before changing out, the 'Nine Sons Ghost Mother' inside must be dealt with.
Now that the resentment of the seven-headed devil has been refined by him, he can still suppress it even without the Yin-Swallowing Jar. Even the Ghost Mother is still not close, but if it takes a few more months, the problem will not be big. Then it will be
You can get rid of the vagina-swallowing jar.
The plan was decided, and Xu Junming's heart sank.
Practice with peace of mind, refine the Nine Sons of Heavenly Demonic Qi, and wait for the competition to begin.
Without leaving the house, he could hardly notice the passage of time until the consciousness that was placed on guard outside was triggered.
"Senior brother...?"
He took off the sealing talisman and looked at Liu Dehua who opened the door and came in.
"What's up?"
"Uncle Four Eyes is here!"
Xu Junming was shocked and flew out of bed.
"Master is here!"
"Haha, good disciple, come out quickly and let me have a look!"
Hearty laughter came from the outer hall.
Xu Junming was excited. Four years of teaching had already made him regard Si Mu as his only close relative in this world. Needless to say, there was no need to express his feelings in his heart.
Arriving at the hall in a flash, he looked at the four-eyed Taoist priest who was wearing an apricot yellow Taoist robe, carrying a mahogany sword on his back, and standing there with a smile. Xu Junming took two steps forward, pushed the golden mountain and fell the jade pillar, and bowed to the ground with his knees.
"Disciple Xu Junming, pay homage to my mentor!"
"Good disciple, get up quickly and let me have a look."
He lifted his beloved disciple up with both hands, looked up and down, and smiled happily.
"I haven't seen you for half a year, and my body and bones are getting stronger, which is good! My cultivation has also entered the middle stage of Xiantian!"
"Isn't Master also entering the late Xiantian stage?"
As soon as he saw the fourth eye, he noticed the change in the other person's aura.
"Haha, you have to make some progress, otherwise I won't be able to be your master in the future. Come on, good disciple, let me see your progress in Taoism."
Xu Junming nodded, spread out his left palm, and three talismans of Pure Yang, Flame, and Divine Strike bloomed.
Chunyang, the divine strike suppressed him to nine feet, and the flames suppressed him to seven feet. Even so, it was shocking enough.
Simu took a deep breath to suppress the shock in his heart.
Even before he came, he had already expected that with his apprentice's understanding, the realm of Taoism would advance rapidly, but when he actually saw it, he was still unavoidably surprised.
His understanding of the Tao of Shen Dao is only nine feet long. This is the result of twenty years since he entered the Tao. How long has Xu Junming been a Taoist? Counting from the time of his breakthrough in Uncle Jiu, it has only been eight months now.
I was shocked, but also quite proud.
His four-eyed disciples are definitely the best in the spiritual world.
"Good disciple, you really did not disappoint me." He patted Xu Junming on the shoulder happily.
Putting down his left hand and eliminating the strange phenomena, he said, "It's all thanks to Master's teachings, otherwise I wouldn't be where I am now."
"You don't need to put a high hat on me. From now on, I can't teach you anything about God's Taoism. It's all up to you to understand it yourself!"
"Master, don't worry. This disciple will practice Taoism diligently and live up to your teachings!" Xu Junming said respectfully.
