In the next few days, Qi Xuansu visited several major palaces non-stop. Accompanied by the main person in charge of the palaces, he inspected each palace and gave various speeches, either encouragement or criticism.
According to the planned itinerary, I finally returned to the main palace on the fourth day to check Xiao Yin's homework. Then on the fifth day, I taught classes in person, paying extra attention to Yan Yongyi and Xu Xinghuan.
Yan Yongyi was not so good. Although Xu Xinghuan looked more docile and not as strong as Yan Yongyi, he actually still knew a little about people and took the initiative to visit Qi Xuansu.
As soon as the two met, Xu Xinghuan congratulated Qi Xuansu: "Qi Zhenren has reached a higher level."
Qi Xuansu showed the calmness of his elders: "Let's make progress together."
In fact, Xu Xinghuan had long been instructed by his father Xu Dacheng to come to see Qi Xuansu, but Qi Xuansu was in a hurry to go to Xiangzhou and missed it.
Qi Xuansu was still busy attending Taoist palace discussions and did not chat much with Xu Xinghuan, but he still fully expressed his closeness. The best way to cultivate confidants is to take the secretary route. After Chen Jianqiu, Yan Yongzhen will eventually become an outsider.
Released.
By the time Yan Yongzhen is released, Xu Xinghuan should be promoted to the third rank of Youyi Taoist priest. If suitable, he can take over Yan Yongzhen's class, just like Liuhu took over Ke Qingqing's class.
As for Yan Yongyi, Qi Xuansu is not prejudiced, nor does he look down upon her because the Yan family is weaker than the Xu family. The key is because she is a female Taoist priest.
Although Qi Xuansu doesn't mind getting in touch with some older female Taoist priests, who regard themselves as juniors and get along with each other more casually, Qi Xuansu is very afraid of female Taoist priests of the same age and same generation, except Yao Pei, Shi Yu, who are more or less related to each other, or Ning Yuqing.
It is a kind of colleague relationship that one has to deal with, and usually he is determined not to get too close to it, for fear that some gossip will spread and ruin his reputation.
Who makes today's moral weapons so easy to use? Everyone wants to wield them a few times, but his position is still so crucial. I don't know how many people are staring at him and want to make articles about him. Although he is not afraid, given his status and status, he is not afraid.
You will be killed, but there is no need to test whether the moral sword is sharp.
The disadvantage of this is that Zhang Yuelu was dragged down. Many people said that Zhang Yuelu was really domineering, and even Qi Xuansu was obedient. If it had been another man, I can't imagine how miserable it would be. But Zhang Yuelu didn't care.
Well, her reputation has been "bad" for a long time. If she has too many debts, she won't have to worry about it. If she has too many lice, she won't be itchy. Just let it be.
Finally, after handling these miscellaneous Taoist palace affairs, Qi Xuansu and Yan Yongzhen made arrangements, officially began to retreat, and dreamed of Lingshan.
Qi Xuansu still left a message from the familiar Qiniang, and Qi Xuansu came to the old place by the familiar route and met Shi Hengbo.
Behind her are eleven totems symbolizing the eleven witches.
The totems of Wu Di, Wu Zhen, Wu Lu, and Wu Xiang have risen to the sixth scale, the totems of Wu Ji, Wu Fan, Wu Yang, and Wu Xian have risen to the seventh scale, and the totems of Wu Luo and Wu Gu have risen to the seventh scale.
After eight scales, Wu Peng's totem reached the ninth scale, and it was the only totem that was filled.
The totem filled with Wu Peng allowed Qi Xuansu to receive the inheritance from Wu Peng, mainly the Five Elements Formation and the manipulation of earth energy.
In summary, Qi Xuansu's Sanren inheritance, martial arts inheritance, witchcraft inheritance, Qi refiner inheritance, and banished immortal inheritance are already in the creation stage. Only the alchemist inheritance is still in the infinite stage, which is the only shortcoming.
Qi Xuansu directly infused the totem with the magical power of "Xuanyu".
To Qi Xuansu's expectation, this piece of "Xuan Jade" was quite pure. It mainly affected the Wuzhen totem, causing it to rise from the sixth scale to the ninth scale, becoming the second to be fully upgraded after the Wu Peng totem.
totem.
Qi Xuansu remembered clearly that Wu Zhen was one of the four great witches who died in Lingshan Cave, which was also the base camp controlled by the Yao family.
Qi Xuansu even suspected that the "Xuan Jade" of the Yao family was extracted from the corpse of Wu Zhen, and that the blood in the "Xuan Jade" was the true blood of the great witches.
The difference is that most of the blood threads in ordinary "mysterious jade" are imitations of creation engineering, just like imitations of candle dragon blood and other things. Dao sects do have this ability, but after all, they are imitations and cannot be exactly the same as the real thing.
Mixed and impure, the imitated bloodline is more like a mixed blood, so after absorbing a piece of "Xuan Jade", it will increase the totem scale of several great witches. Even Li Changge, an acquired immortal who has nothing to do with the inheritance of the great witch, can also use "Xuan Jade"
”.
But the "mysterious jade" provided by the Yao family is too pure, without any spillage, to accurately enhance the totem of Wuzhen. Thinking about the remains of Wuzhen that Qi Xuansu had seen before, it is impossible to make such an association.
strangeness.
Qi Xuansu again thought of the three murals he saw in Lingshan Cave.
In the first mural, Wu Zhen is sitting on a huge throne, like a giant, wearing a robe with strange patterns and a bronze mask that covers her face. There are many figures surrounding her feet, which are not as high as the armrests of the throne.
Some were kneeling with their heads bowed in prayer, some were prostrate and saluted, and some were standing with their hands raised in a gesture, looking at Wu Zhen piously with their eyes, as if waiting for Wu Zhen's gift.
In the second mural, Wu Zhen is still sitting on the throne, pretending to remove the bronze mask covering his face. The reactions of the figures are different. Some people are extremely frightened and flee in all directions. Some people are jumping for joy and seem to be looking forward to it.
This moment has arrived.
In the third mural, Wu Zhen unveiled the bronze mask on his face. Wu Zhen's face was dark, as if shrouded in shadow. And those surrounding Wu Zhen, whether they were frightened or joyful, their outlines
They all turned into dotted lines, which seemed to mean that they turned into shadows.
At that time, Qiniang gave an explanation that Wu Zhen was the master of the "Shadow Realm", and these people were included in the Shadow Realm by Wu Zhen.
Wu Zhen has been dead for many years. Even though his remains are somewhat miraculous, they are at least on par with Wu Luo's incarnation. What's more, Wu Zhen's remains have been absorbed by the "bone mirror" to absorb most of their power, leaving only partial remains. In fact,
Not worth mentioning.
There's just one variable here, and that's the shadow realm.
It is precisely because of the existence of the shadow world that Wu Zhen has the possibility of resurrection, so Tianshi Si had to divide it into two parts and seal it. His soul sank into the illusion of the final battle and could not extricate himself. His remains were placed on the throne.
, suppressed with "bone mirror".
This was also one of the reasons why the Earth Master did not take away the "Bone Mirror", which ultimately gave Qiniang an advantage.
Qi Xuansu and Qiniang's joint efforts failed to completely eliminate Wuzhen. Instead, they used "evil fire" and "shebi corpse poison" to accelerate Wuzhen's collapse. Without the suppression of the "bone mirror", they finally made Wuzhen collapse.
It returns to the shadow realm.
Qi Xuansu received the Wuzhen inheritance at this time. First of all, it was a huge improvement in realm cultivation, which made up for the last shortcoming. The Alchemist inheritance finally entered the stage of creation.
This stage corresponds to the realm of the Yang God. The Yin God can escape from his shell and travel around. He is invisible to the human eye, is intangible, has a ball of soul, and has many weaknesses, while the Yang God is no different from a human being and is not afraid of sky light, sky wind, sky thunder, and flying sky.
Escape from the earth and live forever, which can be regarded as a model of yin and yang. The most important point is that after reaching this state, the alchemist inheritance is finally no longer suppressed by the blood energy of the martial arts inheritance.
However, many of Guixian's methods are not good at fighting with people, and they are more of auxiliary methods.
After the warrior inheritance reaches the Shattered Void Realm, the greatest magical power is to shake the void, which is most suitable for fighting with people. Other inheritances, such as the Three Corpses Killing Realm, the Hedao Realm, the Dao Fruit Realm, etc., are all-purpose methods and can fight with people.
, and it can be used for other purposes, it all depends on how it is used. Only the alchemist inheritance has gone to the other extreme of the martial arts inheritance. It is mainly used for other purposes and is not suitable for fighting with others.
The characteristic of a martial artist is that he attaches great importance to the body and regards the body as the foundation of everything, even at the expense of integrating soul and body, making the spirit and soul a part of the body. The alchemist, as the opposite of the warrior, extremely despises the body and regards the body as clothing.
After reaching the realm of Yang Shen, you can abandon your body. The Yang God exists independently. In addition, with scattered thoughts, the alchemist has many ways to save his life. In the same realm, it is not difficult to defeat the alchemist, but it is difficult to completely kill the alchemist.
Yang Shen can also be reincarnated. Essentially, the fetus in the belly has not yet condensed its soul, occupying the fetus, and "reincarnating" in this way. However, there will be the mystery of the fetus, forgetting the past and present, and with good luck, you can remember the past.
If you are unlucky, you will be miserable all your life.
Many prodigies who were born and died young were actually alchemists who took away their bodies. The reason why they died young was because the skin was no more than what it seemed, and the three corpse gods inside were attacking their lives, and their life span was over.
After reaching the Yang Shen realm of the pseudo-immortal stage, you can crack the mystery of the womb. This is different from the fairy clone. After all, the fairy clone is separated by a world, and the alchemist himself is in this world, so it is relatively important to crack the mystery of the womb.
It’s easy. If you don’t want to start from a baby, you can also practice parasitism, pretend to be a helpful old man, cultivate a suitable container, cannibalize it little by little, and finally take away the body of others.
After becoming an immortal, you are no longer limited to "reincarnation" as a fetus. You can even skip the process of parasitic cannibalization and directly seize the body by force, truly making your skin like clothes. Even when fighting with others, you can also seize the body.
For example, ordinary people can only see a flash of light and shadow, but they can't wear it. The owner of the skin has changed.
From this point of view, alchemists are best at surviving.
But for Qi Xuansu, it was a bit useless. He couldn't bear to part with his body. Without it, what would he have left?
In addition, several other inheritances have also benefited, and each has improved, but they are still far away from the pseudo-immortal stage.
The key is the magical power brought by the witchcraft totem.
If Wu Peng is the great witch of earth, then Wu Zhen is the great witch of shadow.
She is the master of the shadow world and is good at "shadow art".
The so-called "shadow art" is to imprint the shadow of a real object, and then use the shadow as a means to fight against the enemy. In a sense, it can be regarded as making the false appear real.
At that time, Yaozu had "collected" the shadow of Tianshou Mountain, put it in his sleeve, and released the shadow of the mountain when fighting with people, as if the real mountain fell from the sky. This is also related to cultivation. If he is a Three Tribulation Immortal, he will take the shadow of Kunlun Mountain.
The shadows move over, or the shadows of the rivers and long rivers are imprinted. I am afraid that no one in the world can block the power of these mountains and rivers.
Different from the Five Elements Formation, which is extremely powerful but temporarily unusable, Qi Xuansu's level of cultivation can use the "Shadow Technique". If you can't rub Kunlun, you can rub a small mountain, which is more flexible.
