"come in."
Hearing the senior brother's call, Wu Qingce took a deep breath, turned around and cupped his hands towards Xia Lingdang and Qu Yangze.
"Senior Brother Wu! I wish you success!" Qu Yangze shouted angrily after returning the gift.
Xia Lingdang next to him heard it, and quickly imitated: "I wish Brother Wu every success!"
"Thank you!"
Arching his hands again, Wu Qingce turned around gracefully, and followed his brother into the formation room.
"Hiss..."
The moment he entered the formation room, Wu Qingce felt a biting cold. With his current cultivation level, even if he went to an extremely cold place and jumped into a frozen lake, he wouldn't feel anything.
However, the coldness of this magic room made him feel so piercing.
After trying not to tremble, Wu Qingce's eyes were instantly attracted by a blue tripod in the center of the formation room.
This tripod can't help exuding bursts of jasper-colored aura, and there are six lotus lanterns spinning around it.
"Sitting cross-legged like in a tripod."
Just when Wu Qingce was wondering what the six lotus lanterns were, the voice of his senior brother suddenly reached his ears.
"Yes!"
Arching his hands towards his senior brother, Wu Qingce took a step forward.
"hiss!!!"
This time, Wu Qingce couldn't hold back anymore, and trembled all over.
'Cold, too cold! '
When he took a step towards the azure cauldron, the bone-piercing freezing sensation rose again, making him almost afraid to breathe.
But after only staying for a moment, Wu Qingce took another step forward.
"boom!"
This time, Wu Qingce directly mobilized his mind, bursting out a blue-colored thunder aura.
Because at this point, he could no longer rely on the strength of his body to resist the cold. He even felt that if he hadn't reacted quickly, his feet would have been completely frozen the moment he took that step.
And Wu Qingce has also confirmed that this bone-piercing cold air is emanating from the azure tripod.
"Gudu..." Wu Qingce couldn't help swallowing a mouthful of saliva.
Just getting close to the cauldron was already so difficult, he couldn't imagine how terrible the cold he would bear the moment he sat in the cauldron.
'Is this what the brother said about the narrow escape...'
Thinking of this, Wu Qingce clenched his fists and took another big step forward.
This step brought him directly in front of the azure cauldron, and at the same time he felt the chill that could freeze his soul together.
Raising his hand, Wu Qingce discovered that a layer of frost had condensed on the surface of his skin, that is to say, this frost had penetrated his thunder spirit energy and started to cause damage to his body.
In the next second, Wu Qingce began to feel that his body gradually became stiff, and it was obvious that the chill had invaded his body.
"what!"
At this moment, Wu Qingce let out a roar, and the Lei Lingqi completely exploded, making his body flexible again, and he jumped into the azure cauldron without hesitation.
Just as Wu Qingce expected, the intensity of the cold air in the azure cauldron directly increased by a level. At that moment just now, he almost thought his heartbeat had stopped.
At this moment, Wu Qingce knew that he was definitely not able to resist the cold air, so he quickly sat down cross-legged while his body was still barely moving, and exerted all his mental energy.
Seeing that Wu Qingce successfully sat cross-legged in the cauldron, Jiang Beiran nodded in relief.
If he can't pass this level, he will never let him take the Xuanlei Jiutian Pill.
That's right, after failing twice, Jiang Beiran finally refined this high-grade Xuan-level elixir.
That is to say, this Xuanlei Jiutian Pill is already the limit that alchemists can refine by relying on their strength, and if it goes higher, it must be at the right time, place and people.
Even if this grade of elixir is taken to the Six Kingdoms, many top sects will compete for it, and they will spare no effort in the competition.
Originally, Jiang Beiran planned to subdue Wu Qingce when he attacked Xuanhuang, but the higher the cultivation level of a practitioner, the harder it is to change his physique, so when he found that Wu Qingce's growth rate far exceeded his expectations, Jiang Beiran made a decisive decision When Wu Qingce attacked Xuan Wang, he took this top-level panacea.
In fact, when he accepted Wu Qingce as a younger brother, Jiang Beiran simply needed a younger brother to help with errands, and did not expect him to be of any help in terms of combat power.
Because he saw at that time that although Wu Qingce was good, he was only good, at most he would dominate a small sect like Guixin Sect, but once he met those real geniuses, his talent was not enough.
But Wu Qingce's desire to become stronger and the effort he put in for it both surprised Jiang Beiran and touched Jiang Beiran at the same time.
In Jiang Beiran's original plan, Wu Qingce was just a transitional younger brother. One day there will be someone more talented to replace him. At that time, Jiang Beiran will keep him in Fengzhou and let him continue to shine here , it is not very difficult to finally establish a sect in Fengzhou.
But because Wu Qingce showed a willpower far beyond ordinary people, and his ambition to become stronger.
As he himself said.
Rather than live a mediocre life, he would rather die.
So Jiang Beiran changed his plan, he planned to give Wu Qingce a chance, a chance to become stronger.
Can hard work make you strong
sure.
But the upper limit is very low.
This world has never been fair. Bloodlines, talent, birth, inheritance, etc. all determine that some people are born stronger than most.
They can gain more by inhaling spiritual energy casually than countless practitioners who have worked hard day and night for months.
In such utterly unfair circumstances, the gains from effort are far too small.
Because while you are working hard, those who are far more talented than you are also working hard, so why can you beat those who are far more talented than you
So the first thing Jiang Beiran had to do was to help Wu Qingce change his physique.
Let him stand on the same starting line as those talented people, so that his efforts will become more meaningful, and he will have the opportunity to become a real strong.
Lei Yan Body Tempering Pill can be said to be just a small test, Jiang Bei must first see if Wu Qingce can pass this simplest test.
However, even if it was just the simplest test, Wu Qingce almost lost his life several times. If Jiang Beiran hadn't fully prepared for him, he would never be able to survive by himself.
This is the price for ordinary people to become talented, but fortunately, Wu Qingce does have a willpower far beyond ordinary people.
Otherwise, even if Jiang Beiran prepared everything for him, he would not be able to complete such a transformation.
So after the success of the sledgehammer test, Jiang Beiran's next step is to make a drastic move.
Wu Qingce's previous promotions were presided over by Jiang Beiran in order to help him lay a solid foundation.
Otherwise, he wouldn't even have a chance to fight.
"Qing Ce." Jiang Beiran walked to the Dizang Ding and shouted.
After a while, Wu Qingce opened his mouth with difficulty, and replied with a vibrato: "... yes."
"Don't die."
After hearing this, Wu Qingce's froze expression suddenly showed a smile. He clenched his fists tightly and replied with all his strength: "Yes!! Brother!"
Without speaking again, Jiang Beiran took out a jar of Tianmendong wine from the Qiankun ring and poured it into the tripod.
Then the second altar, the third altar... until the entire Ksitigarbha tripod is filled.
Looking at Wu Qingce who was completely soaked in the wine, Jiang Beiran stretched out his hand and patted the cauldron twice before walking out of the formation.
Outside the formation, Jiang Beiran sat in front of a piano table, lit a plate of ambergris, and Jiang Beiran took out a Yaoqin from the Qiankun Ring and placed it in front of the table.
The Qin is about three feet six inches long, six inches wide, and two inches thick.
The bottom plate is flat and the panel is curved.
There are two cursive characters engraved on the back of the piano.
[Lonely]
Putting his ten fingers on the strings, Jiang Beiran looked at the Ksitigarbha tripod in the center of the formation and began to play.
The so-called "big sound has no sound, but the elephant has no form".
The most beautiful voice is the detached and unrestrained voice, pursuing a leisurely artistic conception.
Jiang Beiran is good at all musical instruments, if he were to evaluate which musical instrument is closest to the realm of "big sound and rare sound"...
That is Yaoqin without a doubt.
Among the new batch of skill points, there is a skill point called [phantom sound].
It can be said that when it first appeared, Jiang Beiran believed that it must improve the ability of Xuan Yueshi.
Before the [phantom sound] point appeared, Jiang Beiran would only play the instrument when he suddenly felt elegant.
But as the points of [phantom sound] got higher and higher, Jiang Beiran gradually discovered its magical effect.
One time he had a sudden mood and played a piece in the alchemy room, but not long after the sound of the piano started, Xia Lingdang suddenly danced.
It is true to say that music can mobilize people's emotions. It is human nature to hum a few words and twist a few times when hearing beautiful music.
But Xia Lingdang is not as simple as just twisting twice, her dancing posture is quite graceful, but considering her background, it should be impossible for her to have learned to dance.
Out of curiosity, Jiang Beiran didn't interrupt Xia Lingdang, but played the whole piece with great interest.
During this period, Xia Lingdang's dancing posture became more and more graceful, and even made several movements that made Jiang Beiran want to applaud her, which made Jiang Beiran more convinced that it was not Xia Lingdang dancing by herself, but the influence of her piano sound. her.
When the sound of the piano stopped abruptly, Xia Lingdang sat down on the ground with a dazed look on her face.
"Dancing well."
Hearing the master's compliment, Xia Lingdang quickly stood up and looked at the master and said, "I... I didn't know what happened just now, my body moved by itself without knowing what happened."
Jiang Beiran was a little surprised after hearing this. He thought Xia Lingdang would lose the memory just now, but now it seems that she knew what she was doing just now, but she couldn't control her body at all.
Then Jiang Beiran tried to play a few pieces with completely different styles, and Xia Lingdang also gave completely different reactions.
For example, when she heard a more exciting song, Xia Lingdang would unknowingly erupt with profound energy. In addition, according to what she said, her body would become more excited than usual, and her heart beat so fast that it seemed to jump out of her throat.
And when she heard the soothing music, Xia Lingdang would show a very comfortable expression, and soon fell into a deep sleep, and immediately after waking up, she said that she had a very beautiful dream, and she slept very well. very comfortable.
…
In this way, after using Xia Lingdang as a guinea pig to experiment with several repertoires, Jiang Beiran was completely sure.
Today, he has already begun to exert the effect of [Phantom Sound], but he has not yet known the specific factors that affect the effect of [Phantom Sound], but he believes that as the points of [Phantom Sound] increase, the answer to this mystery will come soon. will be revealed.
Of course, he can also choose to ask a high-quality mysterious music teacher, maybe he will gain something.
At this moment, Jiang Beiran played a pure heart song for Wu Qingce.
Because he knew that at this moment Wu Qingce must be extremely tormented, and this song should make him feel more comfortable.
Just as Jiang Beiran expected, Wu Qingce, who was in the Ksitigarbha tripod at the moment, was suffering extremely.
The biting cold had already paralyzed his whole body, but he knew very well that he must not just be frozen like this, so he could only constantly mobilize the thunder spirit energy in his body to fight against the chill.
However, this cold air was able to penetrate his thunder spirit energy and directly cause damage to the inside of his body, and even several meridians gradually began to freeze.
Under such a situation of ebb and flow, Wu Qingce's resistance became more and more difficult, and it was inevitable that he would feel anxious.
And just when his mental defense was about to collapse, bursts of melodious piano sounds came into his ears, which made him calm down and gradually became less anxious when facing the pervasive cold air.
Even in another confrontation with the chill, Wu Qingce suddenly found that he didn't have to drive it out, and it was not impossible to get used to it slowly and make it a part of his body.
'It must be the brother who is guiding me with the sound of the piano...'
After strengthening this belief, Wu Qingce calmed down completely this time.
…
Two hours later, Jiang Beiran got up and walked to the tripod. At this moment, the coldness of the Ksitigarbha tripod became more and more terrifying, but the Tianmendong wine in the tripod had no intention of freezing.
This is the particularity of spirit wine, it can always maintain a liquid state.
Tapping the body of the tripod twice with his knuckles, Jiang Beiran shouted, "Qing Ce."
In the Ksitigarbha Cauldron, Wu Qingce, who had been soaked for two hours, suddenly opened his eyes, poked his head out of the wine and said, "Here!"
At this moment, he is obviously used to the cold. Although his movements are still a little stiff, they are much stronger than when he first entered the cauldron.
"Drink half of the wine in the tripod."
"Yes!"
Without any hesitation, Wu Qingce opened his mouth and drank half a tripod of wine.
And when the half tripod of wine entered his stomach, not only did he not feel any drunkenness, but he felt that his body began to heat up, as if he had endless energy.
"Hold this energy, don't let it vent."
"Yes." Wu Qingce, who was about to yell, immediately responded.
"Continue to meditate."
"Yes."
When Wu Qingce sat down again, Jiang Beiran pulled out ninety-nine eighty-one pieces of golden talisman paper from the Qiankun Ring in one breath.
"Know the changes and there are good and bad, and enter the fight to pass the sky."
"Lvxi governs Jiarong in harmony with the law, and acts as a hero in the sky to take care of heaven."
"Heaven's blessings flow to future generations!"
"go!"
