"The method of body training."
Perhaps because he knew that what he said was horrifying, Jianchou repeated it very clearly.
Fudaoshanren finally felt like he was going to collapse...
He remembered what Qu Zhengfeng said when they were returning the sword to the top. Maybe Jianchou was the one who could withstand the most beatings and the most resistance to falls... Unexpectedly, there was a reason for his words.
"... Are you... Are you sure that you want to practice body cultivation on your own? Have you not been led astray by your Junior Brother Qu?"
Qu Zhengfeng's physical strength is rare in the entire cultivation world.
Because no fool would spend a lot of time on physical strength.
According to Fudaoshanren's own estimation, during this hundred years or so, he did nothing but temper his body.
Jianchou had a fight with Qu Zhengfeng before, so he might have been provoked.
Imagine if the top female cultivator at Yashan went to temper her body, if others heard about it, I'm afraid they would start to chatter and say that Yashan didn't treat female cultivators as human beings or something like that...
When he thought of it, Fudaoshanren sighed heavily.
Jianchou himself was calm and said, "Master once said that I have a body of the sky. After fighting with Junior Brother Qu, I also thought about it... The biggest advantage of the body of the sky is not only that it is fast to cultivate, but more importantly, I have no meridians that can be destroyed. But today when I fought with Junior Brother Qu, as soon as he made a move, my spiritual energy was dispersed... It fell all over my flesh and blood, and it was difficult to gather it again for a while."
"That being said..."
In fact, Fudaoshanren understood what she meant.
When a cultivator absorbs spiritual energy from heaven and earth, he will automatically guide the spiritual energy to flow through his body meridians, taking the opportunity to temper his body. But for someone like Yu Jianchou who has no meridians, the so-called "meridians" are just a route for spiritual energy to flow in her mind. It has no shape and is extremely easy to be broken up.
The cultivator's spiritual energy spreads into the meridians and condenses the meridians; Jianchou's spiritual energy, however, spreads into the flesh and blood and condenses the body.
It is easy to condense the meridians, but it is very difficult to condense the entire body, as it consumes too much energy.
Unfortunately, cultivators rely on their meridians to practice, but Jianchou needs a physical body.
Judging from this, when Jianchou suddenly asked him about the method of body training today, it was not an impulse, nor was it influenced by Qu Zhengfeng...
At most, some of Qu Zhengfeng's actions suddenly gave her a little inspiration.
Fu Dao Shanren was a little embarrassed: "I do have ways to refine my body... But... I really want to ask you, do you really want to refine your body?"
What's there to ask
Jianchou recalled the knee he had been determined to use before, and the moment he was hit back hard, he felt an indescribable emotion in his chest.
Whether Qu Zhengfeng likes her or not has nothing to do with her.
She only knew that Qu Zhengfeng was right about one thing: in this vast land of 19 continents, she was so weak that she was indeed not qualified to be called the eldest sister of Yashan. More importantly, she might not even be qualified for so-called "revenge."
Jianchou was not a weak-willed person to begin with, and he didn't think that he would be devastated by today's defeat.
On the contrary, the toughest part of her character has been aroused.
Qu Zhengfeng
After being a disciple for 680 years, he is only at the peak of the Nascent Soul stage.
But I am worried that I am the fastest cultivating Tianxu body. It may sound like a foolish dream to surpass Qu Zhengfeng in a short time, but -
There are so many dreamers in the world, why can't I be one of them
This is a dream that can set people on fire.
Jianchou's eyes became exceptionally bright.
She looked at Fudao Shanren and said with a smile, "Please give me some advice, Master."
"… "
As if getting to know her all over again, Fudaoshanren discovered...
She has become different.
The gentleness that had concealed her entire being suddenly faded, and beneath her bright eyes was a fiery look.
Fudaoshanren has actually seen this kind of look many times.
Those Yashan disciples who had been beaten by me and Qu Zhengfeng, who had lost many times, who had been defeated many times, and who constantly wanted to climb up... didn't everyone have the same look in their eyes
Body training
Then let’s practice body training!
Fu Dao Shanren waved his hand and said, "Come with me to the Sutra Library! Master will pick out two good books for you!"
“Bang!”
A token was thrown directly to the ground, and a round door emerged directly from the ground.
Fudaoshanren opened the door with his foot and jumped directly inside: "Follow me!"
Jianchou looked at the door that opened towards his feet and suddenly felt as if his eyes had been opened. He turned around to look at the top of the scabbard hidden in the clouds, and naturally he could not see Qu Zhengfeng's figure.
She smiled slightly, and finally jumped down from the Sutra Library.
This time, the door was not opened on the side of the Sutra Repository, but directly from the dome.
Seeing that Sorrow had fallen straight down from a great height, Fudao Shanren was already clapping his hands and walking around.
"Physical training is a tough job, but since you've asked me, I guess you've already prepared yourself, right?"
“Something.”
But not a lot.
Jianchou walked up and followed Fudaoshanren.
Shelf after shelf of books gradually passed before my eyes.
Fudao Shanren's eyes also moved rapidly. He said, "I don't know where that idiot Qu Zhengfeng got his body-building method, but the body-building method I'm going to find for you might be a little... uh, shocking?"
"Shocking?" Jianchou was surprised.
Fu Dao Shanren said: "In fact, our Yashan doesn't have any tradition of physical training. The physical body is just a passing test at best. Many sects in the cultivation world don't have it either. Physical strength just grows naturally with cultivation. After all, the greatest power of a cultivator comes from powerful spiritual power, and the main thing to cultivate is fighting. However, Yashan has a deep foundation, and over the years, there are still many miscellaneous skills that have been passed down..."
As he spoke, he looked over and stopped as if he had found what he was looking for.
Countless books were spread out in front of him, labeled "Body Refining Methods".
“This one.”
Reaching out his hand, Fudaoshanren immediately found the book on the far right and took it in his hand.
The Sutra Repository was formed by the "realm" of bounded cultivators, and there is not much dust inside. So even though this book has been left there for many years without anyone touching it, it doesn't seem to have any dust at all. It's just a little old, and it must have been like this since it was placed in the Sutra Repository.
Jianchou followed Fudaoshanren and leaned over to take a look. When he saw the big words on the cover, he couldn't help but exclaimed, "Human device?"
right.
This book of body-refining method is called "Human Instrument".
Fudao Shanren flipped through the book casually and confirmed whether there were any missing pages. Then he took down the jade slip floating above it and checked it again. After finding no problems, he handed it directly to Jianchou.
"The so-called 'human instrument' is to use humans as instruments. The way the instrument-refining masters refine instruments is how humans refine their bodies. Burning in fierce fires, hammering and chiseling, the human body is like a magical instrument, and it can be tossed around in any way it needs to be."
This is a fresh concept.
Jianchou simply placed the jade slip between her eyebrows, and the method of practicing "human instrument" contained in it directly entered her mind.
It really is a tool that uses humans as tools, and is divided into three major realms, with a total of nine levels.
Every time you reach a certain level of cultivation, there will be a corresponding level of magical weapon.
When the body is refined to the highest point, it is written here that the body can be like a mysterious treasure, able to fly into the sky and hide in the ground, and even after death the body will not rot, becoming a true "human instrument" and can even be tempered into a magic weapon, which is truly terrifying.
only…
This method of cultivation is a little too horrifying.
"Use a cauldron to cook medicine. Fill it with water and place people like three animals in the cauldron to cook. When the fire is good and the water is boiling, the skin and flesh will become soft and rotten. Then add the juice of iron-coagulating grass to coagulate it and make it soft and flexible..."
Just looking at these first few sentences is horrifying.
They actually put a person into a boiling cauldron to cook, and after all the flesh on the body is cooked, they use the juice of the immortal grass to refine it...
Jianchou looked dazed.
Fudaoshanren's proud voice reached her ears: "This was stolen from the Nanhai Zen Sect by a certain crazy cultivator in Yashan back then, and then improved upon to become even more horrifying. Not bad, right? As long as you dare to grit your teeth and practice, it doesn't take much, as long as you practice to the fifth level, you can beat Qu Zhengfeng, that idiot, and make him scream!"
"I'll let this go. As for Junior Brother Qu... please don't worry, Master. I don't bear any grudge against him."
But I just wanted to beat him up.
Seeing that he had almost finished reading, he put the jade slip down.
Her voice was calm, and indeed there was no trace of resentment in it.
"Indeed... Junior Brother Qu told Master about the incident at sea before. I wonder if there is any conclusion now?"
The topic was immediately changed.
When Fudao Shanren thought about the result of his previous communication with old monster Hengxu, he became furious.
He said, "Kunwu said that some evil spirit is about to come out, but to be honest, we are not capable of dealing with an evil spirit that can ride on Kun. If we really want to fight it, we can only dig those old immortals out of the ground. Maybe there is still a chance."
"The one who left on Kun was a demon?"
Jianchou was suddenly stunned.
Fudao Shanren kept walking forward, not noticing the sad expression. He said, "Dameng Reef, Dameng Reef, isn't there a rumor that an ancient mythical beast had a big dream here and never woke up? Shanren, I still don't know that this rumor is actually true. I know at least 80% of the powerful cultivators in the 19 continents, and few of them have such ability. Besides, there are strange phenomena between heaven and earth, and mayflies in the world are born and die in the same day. It is really unusual... This is against the rules of heaven."
Mayflies were originally born in the morning and died in the evening. It was against the will of heaven for them to live longer. Now that they are born in the morning and die in the evening, it is also against the will of heaven.
The way of heaven is really an interesting thing.
Jianchou didn't know why he thought of this.
Originally, she actually knew some information about the young man, but after hearing Fudaoshanren's chattering, she somehow lost the urge to speak.
Following Fudaoshanren, we walked through the Sutra Repository.
Fudao Shanren finally stopped in front of a bookcase in the corner and took out the thickest book.
This book does not have a corresponding jade slip.
"This is a book I picked up from somewhere in the early years. It contains many things related to body training. The training method of "Human Instrument" is too horrifying. I have never practiced it myself. But it is a good way to learn by analogy. This book talks about many things, so I think it is worth reading more."
As he said this, he threw the heavy book directly to Jianchou.
“Pah.”
Jianchou hurriedly took it, but was almost bent over by the impact.
Very heavy.
It's a thick book. When you open the first page, you can see some pictures of the human body's meridians and acupoints. The small characters next to them are so densely packed that it makes people dizzy at first glance.
"hey-hey."
Fudao Shanren laughed cunningly, patted Jianchou's shoulder, and said earnestly: "From now on, the important task of teaching Qu Zhengfeng that idiot a lesson will be handed over to you."
...Master, are you sure I'm not the one being taught a lesson
Jianchou had already prepared himself to be beaten again and again.
She suddenly felt a headache.
Fu Dao Shanren said, "You should study these two books about body training carefully when you go back, and practice according to what is said. There is nothing to do in the next few days, so you should practice well. In more than two years, there will be a small meeting in the left 3,000th of my Central Region. If you can break through the Golden Core before then, you may be qualified to enter."
Golden elixir
It is another small gathering of the left three thousand in the Central Region.
Jianchou frowned: "Do I need a golden elixir to be eligible to enter?"
"Other sects are not like that, but in Yashan, it's embarrassing to go to Zuo Sanqian without a golden elixir." Fudao Shanren touched his nose and looked at Jianchou with admiration as usual, "Anyway, you will be fine. Shanren, I still need to look up some things here, you should just practice quickly."
"Yes. Then I will take my leave."
Jianchou put the two books and a jade slip into his Qiankun bag and finally left the Sutra Library.
At this moment, the sun was setting on the top of Lingzhao Mountain on Yashan.
Jianchou felt that he had just come out of seclusion not long ago, and had been to the West Sea. Many things had happened there, but when he came back he actually wanted to continue practicing, and was willing to do so. It was really unbelievable.
People say that practicing Buddhism is a lonely, boring and painful thing, and it is indeed true.
The big white goose was still paddling with its webbed feet in the well water. When it saw Jianchou reappear beside Guihe Well, it swam towards this side.
Jianchou walked over, squatted down, and reached out to touch the top of its head.
The feathers were extremely smooth, and she smiled slightly: "Seeing you wandering around here every day, you don't feel bored..."
The big white goose lowered its head and rubbed Jianchou's palm.
Jianchou was stunned for a moment, and just laughed: Nowadays, even white geese can speak human language
A group of red-crowned cranes nearby seemed to be watching the scene coldly, then they turned their heads and paddled towards the other side of the water.
The big white goose called out to them twice in a loud voice, as if in provocation.
Jianchou held his forehead helplessly: Well, actually this goose... is more like the bad character of Fudaoshanren... It is indeed the goose that has taken his surname...
Jianchou, feeling emotional, patted its head, then stood up and walked towards the Dan Hall.
She had just read the jade slip, and she had memorized some of the spiritual herbs and elixirs needed for body refining. In addition...
You also need a big cauldron for cooking people.
She stood at the door of the Alchemy Hall and looked inside. She felt that the Alchemy Hall in front of her was somewhat similar to a mortal medicine shop, but there were nine large cauldrons for refining medicine in the middle, and several deacons and disciples were holding jade slips and checking the conditions in the cauldrons.
As soon as Jianchou appeared at the door, someone noticed him.
A young deacon disciple raised his head quickly, and when he saw that it was Jianchou, he was surprised for a moment; "Master Jianchou? Congratulations to Master Jianchou for coming out of seclusion."
Not many people knew about her leaving the country.
Jianchou didn't expect the other party to be so polite to her. She bowed and said, "You're welcome. I came here to get some spiritual herbs and elixirs."
The deacon disciple was familiar with the process and directly handed Jianchou a jade slip, asking Jianchou to enter what he needed on it.
Jianchou did as he was told and handed the jade slip back to the deacon disciple after recording it.
The deacon disciple took it and was about to prepare something for Jianchou, but the moment he placed the jade slip between his eyebrows, he was stunned: Why... there is also a big, big tripod
What is Master Jianchou going to do with this
For a moment, the deacon's look became strange.
Jianchou didn't explain, he just stood there waiting.
Soon, everything was ready...
Even including...
"when!"
There was a loud bang.
The deacon disciple had amazing arm strength. He held a huge bronze cauldron that was two people tall and placed it directly in front of Jianchou. "This is the largest cauldron that the Alchemy Hall can find. It is usually used for alchemy. Uncle Jianchou, take a look. Is it big enough?"
Jianchou looked up at the cauldron that was taller than himself, recalled every word in the "Human-Device" method, and slowly exhaled.
She smiled and thanked him: "Thank you, nephew, this tripod is enough."
Cooking for yourself is enough.
He simply slapped his Qiankun bag, took the big cauldron, bid farewell to the Dan Hall, and flew directly to his own room riding the inner and outer mirror.
As soon as she left, Chen Jiu came in.
"Strange, the eldest sister has also come to the Alchemy Hall..."
Mumbling something, Chen Jiu, dressed in white, walked in directly. When he saw the deacon disciple, he greeted him, "Little Radish, prepare two Rejuvenation Pills for me."
"No way?"
The deacon disciple known as "Little Radish" felt powerless when he heard the name of the pill: "Fourth Uncle, your allotment of pills for this month is almost used up, how come all of them are Rejuvenation Pills! How can you have so much luck with women?"
“Bang!”
Chen Jiu threw a slap at him without hesitation.
"Look at what you said. Do you think I, your fourth uncle, am a non-serious person? This rejuvenation pill is not only for maintaining youth. I have other uses for it. You know nothing. Hurry up."
Holding his head in grievance, "Little Radish" didn't even have the strength to cry.
"Master Uncle is still the best. He even smiles at me."
"That's because your great uncle is a nice person. Oh, by the way, what is your great uncle doing here?" Chen Jiu was just curious.
"Let's get some simple spiritual herbs and elixirs, and... a very large cauldron. Senior Sister said it should be the kind that can boil people." Thinking of this, Xiao Luobo became more energetic. He grabbed the elixir in his hand and looked back at Chen Jiu, with a strange light flashing in his eyes, "Fourth Uncle, does Senior Uncle... have any special hobbies? Just... like what they said Second Uncle's hobby..."
Special...
Hobby?!
Chen Jiu touched his chin and felt a chill running down his back.
A big cauldron that can cook people!
What on earth does the elder sister want to do? !
He touched his chest where his heart was beating faster and wailed, "I've only heard that Second Senior Brother has the habit of eating people, how come Senior Sister has also learned it now... Can our Yashan ever get better?!"
***
A small house full of sorrow.
A simple protective formation was built at the door to prevent others from breaking in, and Jianchou returned to the house.
She took out a large cauldron from her Qiankun bag and filled it with water. She used the few spirit stones to build a fire-gathering formation under the cauldron. Soon, a cluster of flames rose straight up, burning the bottom of the cauldron.
Soon, hot steam came out of the cauldron.
Then, according to the method of body refining in "Human Instrument", Jianchou put in two taels of slender snow-white Tianxin grass, six sections of white jade tree roots as bright as jade, and eight dead leaf lotuses that looked like dead leaves...
As more and more spiritual herbs were added, the color of the water in the cauldron became darker and darker.
Jianchou looked for a while, then walked back to the front of the big cauldron and slowly sat cross-legged on the cushion.
The turbulent emotions finally calmed down.
She had actually been in seclusion for a long time. The days since she came to Yashan were very interesting and boring, and the seclusion took up most of her time. But even so, the speed of her growth seemed to be unable to keep up with her needs.
Every word Qu Zhengfeng said echoed in my ears.
If she wanted to become the eldest sister of Yashan, she needed to be stronger and more ruthless than them, suppress them, and protect them, becoming a big tree for them, rather than a bead held in the palm of someone’s hand...
Although Jianchou never thought of herself as delicate, she could not deny that Qu Zhengfeng was right.
Others were nice to her, and there was no problem with that.
The problem is, she can't be kind to herself.
Not qualified at all.
She breathed slowly, and the images in her mind became clearer and clearer...
With a flip of his hand, Jianchou slowly opened his eyes.
The silver lock lay quietly in her palm.
There is also a child waiting to seek justice for it...
What reason does she have to be nice to herself
Jianchou thought that she should be even harder on herself.
If she is strong enough, she will not be knocked back by someone’s knee, but she will knock the other person out of temper with her knee;
If she is strong enough, it won't be Qu Zhengfeng who beats her into submission, but she who beats him into submission;
If she was strong enough, she could stand in front of Xie Buchen and tell him: Today, I come to claim your life as promised;
…
"Gulp..."
Bubbles emerged from the bottom of the cauldron and burst the moment they surfaced.
Rolling heat waves emerged from the surface of the water in the cauldron, bringing with them a medicinal smell that was unclear whether it was pleasant or unpleasant.
The huge bronze tripod is like a huge furnace.
Jianchou finally stood up, stepped on the inner and outer mirrors, and slowly rose up.
The light black potion in the cauldron was already boiling.
Jianchou blinked, exhaled, and calmed himself down.
She slowly took off her outer robe and threw it on the floor.
Once she took off her thick outer robe, her thin body was exposed, looking skinny and even frail.
The air seemed too cold, making her shiver, but the next moment, the suffocating heat wave blurred her vision.
Refining the body.
Purgatory.
When she reaches the first level of the "human weapon" body of gold and iron, she will definitely come out to fight with her "big brother". As for the result...
Who cares
She just wasn't willing to accept it.
Even if she continues to lose, she will continue to fight!
The thought flashed through his mind, and Jianchou finally closed his eyes, summoned the fighting plate, and used his spiritual power to protect his bones, then slowly sank his body into the giant cauldron.
The boiling potion rushed towards her...
There was silence in the room.
Outside the mountain wall.
Chen Jiu came out of the Dan Hall, smacked his lips, and looked at the location of Jianchou's hut. He couldn't help but think: What is he going to cook? Why do they like to use a cauldron to cook
Walking forward step by step, Chen Ju even had an urge to ask his second senior brother who had an even darker heart.
But at the end, he shook his head.
Forget it, don’t seek death.
He sighed and was about to leave when a crackling flash of lightning broke through the crimson twilight and landed in Guihe Well.
Chen Jiu was shocked: "What the hell! Can't you just use Feng Xin properly?! Can't we in the cultivation world have a little sense of public morality! It will scare people to death!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the silver light hidden in the lightning finally floated on the water.
Chen Ju took a look and sensed the aura of the silver light, but was stunned: Is it for Senior Sister Jianchou again
