Li Yan was now fully aware of what was happening to him, and this was also the final result of the gray-shirted old man's wasting time.
Li Yan remembered the old man's words that told him not to open his eyes when he woke up again, and now he certainly understood his intention.
If I had woken up and opened my eyes at that time, I would have immediately sat cross-legged and continued to refine the medicinal power, and the fire poison that had just been suppressed in my body would have erupted again.
How could I have the luck to meet someone like the old man in gray who possesses magical powers? What awaits me today is a second confused death.
Thinking of this, Li Yan was already feeling lingering fears.
At this time, the old man's figure began to become vague and illusory, and even his voice became a little erratic.
"Okay, after telling you all this, you must have known why I saved you?"
Li Yan raised his head and looked at the illusory old man, nodded and said softly.
"Of course I understand, kid. I should be the person with spiritual roots from the 'Guishui Xianmen' that you are looking for."
Li Yan had guessed it since the gray-shirted old man talked about their five ancient sects looking for people with special physiques and spiritual roots. This was not difficult for him to guess.
"Yes, you are the one I have been searching for for so many years. This old man's divine consciousness is about to dissipate. I have placed our sect's immortal method, 'Guishui Zhenjing', into your sea of consciousness.
You will be able to sense its existence later. It is a complete set of immortal techniques, from the Qi Condensation Stage to the Mahayana Stage, but you can only see the content of the immortal techniques that matches your own level of magical power.
As your cultivation realm continues to improve, you will be able to unlock the corresponding immortal arts formulas. So now you can only see the immortal arts formulas of the Qi Condensation period. If you unfortunately die, then this set of immortal arts will immediately dissipate. "
Having said that, the old man couldn't help but sigh.
“Boy, if I had found you at a normal time, even with the remaining power of my mind, although I cannot use my great magical powers, I should have no problem accompanying you for a thousand years.
During this period, I can carefully guide your practice and help you avoid detours!
It's a pity that you have already stepped into the gates of hell. After sorting out your meridians and suppressing the fire poison, you have to rely on yourself to walk the rest of the way. As for how far you can go, it depends on your luck. "
Li Yan couldn't help but speak when he heard the old man say this.
"Immortal... Immortal Master, I... I don't want to cultivate immortality. I want to go home and reunite with my parents."
The gray-shirted old man was stunned when he heard this. In his mind, cultivating immortals was something that everyone aspired to, and he had already spent so much precious time explaining it.
But then he sneered.
"Hmph! Do you think you have a choice
If you don't practice Taoism, the fire poison in your body will probably grow stronger in a few years. Once it breaks through the suppression, your death will be even more miserable.
What's more, now that you have gone through the initial training, and today I have re-combed your meridians and guided the medicinal power to take effect, you have already reached the first level of the Qi Condensation Stage. Do you think your current teacher will let you leave when he sees you wake up
Sooner or later, he will absorb your spiritual power, and your end will be no better than death by poison. If you practice the immortal method I gave you, maybe you still have a chance. You said you don't want to practice immortality?"
Li Yan was stunned for a moment after hearing this. He was so focused on returning to his parents that he actually ignored his current environment.
Just as the old man said, he is now in a difficult situation. If he does not practice, he will die. If he continues to practice, he still has a chance of survival.
The old man saw that Li Yan remained silent and smiled coldly.
"Put aside your childish thoughts and think more about how to survive! With the poison in your body, if you practice the 'Guishui Sutra' to the peak of the first level of the Condensation Stage, you should be able to force it out. You should understand this after you read the technique later.
In the future, you can practice more by this pond. This can enhance the auxiliary effect of our water-based spiritual roots. Master Ji did not choose this valley as his residence randomly. This is the only place with some spiritual energy nearby.
And all this spiritual energy comes from the depths of this pool. There should be something like a very small spiritual energy eye under the pool. After the spiritual energy spreads, it can stay in this valley. Otherwise, you will not be able to practice.
However, this amount of spiritual energy is too little and the spiritual eye is too small, otherwise this Qingshanai City would probably have ceased to exist long ago and might have been occupied by some immortal cultivation sect.
There is one more thing. I don’t know whether it is a blessing or a curse. The spiritual power in your body is derived from poison. Although I have combed and repaired your meridians, my magic power is too weak and I can’t change the poisonous nature of the spiritual power in your body.
In the future, as the spiritual power in your body circulates throughout your body, the toxins hidden in the spiritual power will continue to grow stronger and will continue to seep into your muscles and bones.
However, when you change to practice the 'Kuishui Sutra' and reach the peak of the first level of Qi Condensation, the poison in the spiritual power can be refined away.
So, what you should be concerned about now is how to refine the 'Sunflower Water Sutra' and how to escape, right? You can plan other things only after you escape."
Having said this, a solemn tone appeared in the gray-shirted old man's already vague and illusory voice. He was also very worried. If the disciple he had found with great difficulty finally died at the hands of a mere Qi Condensation cultivator, it would be extremely frustrating.
In the past, he could destroy a small figure like this with just a thought, but now he simply couldn't do it, which really made him feel extremely frustrated.
Li Yan also frowned. It was just as the old man in gray said. The most important thing at the moment was how to escape from the hands of Teacher Ji Jun alive.
The old man's voice floated into Li Yan's ears again.
“You should still have about a year. By then, regardless of whether you have cultivated to the peak of the first level of the Qi Condensation Stage, Master Ji will take action. The poison in his body can only be suppressed for about a year at most.
However, if you can practice the 'Guishui Sutra' diligently within a year and reach the peak of the first level of the Condensation Stage, then perhaps there will be a chance for a reversal of the situation, and there may even be an unexpected event. Hehehe..."
The gray-shirted old man's ethereal voice actually revealed a malicious laugh, but he stopped talking and changed the subject.
"If you want to escape from here, you may be able to get through Marshal Hong in the city. He is very eager to obtain what Strategist Ji calls 'martial arts'.
Moreover, I also sensed that in addition to Hong Linying, there was another martial arts master who was no weaker than him in the Marshal's Mansion. Although the two of them combined could not be the opponent of Military Advisor Ji, they could still hold him back for a while.
In addition, you don’t have to worry about the safety of your parents and family members for the time being. Instead, you have to escape now. They can only be your shackles, and Master Ji will not lose the possibility of using them as bait.
Let me remind you again, Master Ji has already mastered some introductory magic, such as wood thorn technique, fire bomb technique, and wind blade technique. You should deal with them carefully.
Although these are insignificant entry-level immortal arts, immortal arts are immortal arts, and they are not something that mortals and beginners like you can resist. "
The old man said so, and he emphasized the word "martial arts", but his voice was already extremely unreal.
Li Yan was still a little confused when he heard the first half of his words. He didn't know why the old man in gray shirt laughed with some ill intention while he was talking. Then when he heard the old man talking about Marshal Hong's intention, his eyes lit up.
He recalled what happened at the military training ground that day. He didn't know what Marshal Hong's intention was at that time. The other party even used his internal force to travel around his body. It turned out that he was thinking about Master Ji's skills. This might really be an opportunity that could be used, but he had no idea how to deal with Master Ji's magic. That was a magic.
"Okay, kid, it's impossible to talk to you more. I look forward to meeting you in person in the future!
However, you should at least call me 'Master'. Remember, I am called 'Venerable Fushui' - Dong Fuyi!"
Having said this, the old man's voice gradually became inaudible, and his figure began to turn into mist and dissipate.
Li Yan looked at the water mist in the air and said anxiously.
"Old man, old man, you haven't told me how I can get out yet?"
But there was no more sound coming from the mist, and Li Yan couldn't help but think in his heart.
"What sect leader? He didn't explain it clearly, and I joined a sect inexplicably, a sect without any roots, and now I am the only disciple.
So where is the immortal method? And how can I get out of this sea of consciousness?"
While he was thinking, the mist in front of his eyes had dissipated. As the mist dissipated, Li Yan suddenly felt a blur in front of his eyes, and then he was in a trance, and it was already pitch black.
Li Yan felt a little cold all over. He opened his eyes suddenly and felt a dazzling sunlight in front of him. He closed his eyes again quickly. At this time, a familiar voice came over.
"Disciple, you finally woke up. How are you? Do you feel better?"
When Li Yan heard the voice, his body stiffened involuntarily. After a pause, he slowly opened his eyes again.
The first thing that caught his eye was a man in a black robe, who was leaning slightly to block the sunlight. A clear and kind face was looking at him with concern. It was his master, Strategist Ji.
Li Yan couldn't help but force a smile. He looked around and realized that he was lying on the ground, soaking wet. He propped himself up with his hands.
At this time, he was still beside the pond. The sunlight in the sky was still slightly tilted towards the east. It seemed to be still morning, as if not long had passed. However, he felt that he had just been in the "dream" for a long time.
After a slight hesitation, Li Yan asked.
"Teacher, what am I doing?"
When Advisor Ji saw Li Yan wake up, he couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. He stood up straight and spoke to Li Yan gently.
"When you were cultivating, you drew Qi into your body and your meridians were damaged, causing you to fall into the pool. I just rescued you, but it's been about half a quarter of an hour, and you've been in a coma.
Therefore, I can only continue to use my internal energy to heal you. Now that you are fine, I... Huh?"
When he first started talking, he was still thinking as he spoke. Later on, he habitually swept his spiritual sense over Li Yan and was surprised. As Li Yan woke up, the aura on Li Yan's body was constantly changing and strengthening.
Moreover, the face, which was originally a little twisted and swollen, began to slowly recover. After Master Ji took a quick glance, he was shocked to find that Li Yan had actually reached the initial stage of the Qi Condensation Period.
For a moment, he looked dazed and shook his head slightly.
Just now, after Li Yan was pulled out of the water by him, Li Yan had a slight reaction except when he initially sent out his spiritual power to treat him. After that, he injected several more spiritual powers and there was no reaction again.
But when he felt Li Yan's breath, he found it was normal. When he used his spiritual sense to scan his body, Li Yan's realm was still at the stage of drawing Qi into the body, and he had not successfully reached the Qi Condensation level.
This inevitably disappointed him greatly, but as long as he was alive, there was still hope for another attack, so he circulated his spiritual power into his body, hoping to relieve the fire poison in his body.
But Li Yan just lay there motionless, and didn't seem to be awake. He could only stand beside him, thinking and observing. After about a cup of tea, Li Yan woke up on his own.
How come he suddenly reached the first level of Qi Condensation Stage when he just used his spiritual sense to scan it out habitually
Was he in a trance? So he released his spiritual sense again to scan Li Yan. He didn't think anyone here could know what spiritual sense was.
After a moment, even with his prudent mind, he couldn't help but show an expression of great joy. It was indeed the first level of Qi Condensation Stage. He also saw that Li Yan's eyes were even clearer, several times clearer than before.
But then he became suspicious again. He had just scanned it with his spiritual sense several times. How could he explain it now
But after a moment, he put aside his doubts. Li Yan had been practicing under his nose for the past forty-nine days, so how could there be any problem
Or maybe it was the spiritual power that I injected into his body that took effect, or maybe this kid had some special physique and I was just being too suspicious.
Why didn’t I notice his advancement just now? It might be because Li Yan’s breathing was unstable when he was unconscious, and he had just entered the first level of Qi Condensation, so his breath was too weak. Now as Li Yan woke up, his breath naturally emerged slowly.
Li Yan looked at his teacher and said halfway through his words. Then he exclaimed in surprise and suddenly felt an invisible force covering him.
It was as if there was a pair of invisible eyes spying on his entire body, making Li Yan feel like he had no secrets at all.
“Spiritual consciousness!”
A flash of inspiration came to his mind as the word popped up involuntarily. After he confirmed the idea, he felt more clearly that the pair of eyes were scanning him from top to bottom and inside and outside.
Although this feeling was so unreal, he could feel it realistically, which made Li Yan feel very uncomfortable.
At the same time, he was shocked to find that his five senses had become unusually sensitive. He could even hear the swimming sounds of fish in the pond and the chirping sounds of various autumn insects in the valley without looking back.
Glancing to the side with the corner of his eye, he was surprised to find that the dewdrops on the grass dozens of feet away from him were as clear as if they were right in front of him, and the light spots were so dazzling.
The ants crawling among the grass leaves and dewdrops were carrying things diligently in the sunshine. He could even see the antennae on their heads waving constantly.
Turning his head to look at the pool, he suddenly saw strands of air in his eyes. They intertwined, twisted, and spread. He guessed that this should be the spiritual energy that Dong Fuyi mentioned that spread from the pool.
"It turns out that was not a dream. I was in my own sea of consciousness just now!"
Li Yan just felt that these scenes and what he had encountered before were so incredible.
And from what his teacher said, he was only unconscious for about half a quarter of an hour.
But he talked to Dong Fuyi for a long time in that space, at least an hour. How can this be explained
