Chapter 290: Cauldron Furnace
In this way, Zhang Xiaohua practiced Worry-free Heart Sutra while comprehending Earth Dungeon and alchemy while on the deserted island. In addition, she strengthened her practice by attracting lightning in the night rain. Half a year passed in a blink of an eye.
In the beginning, Zhang Xiaohua was still on the ground of the small cave, using a small sword to draw lines, counting the days, and then lost interest in drawing and drawing, no longer counting, just simply depicting.
"If it wasn't for seeing how many days I can live on this deserted island where there are no seabirds in the future, I would be lazy to draw this way. It would be better to draw a circle in a corner of the cave and curse the pulsatilla. It would be more refreshing."
And Zhang Xiaohua had to look up at the top of the mountain every day from the beginning, almost turning herself into a shipwreck, and now she doesn't even look at it, too much disappointment, let him know a truth, the greater the expectation, the more disappointed The bigger it is, the worse it is, I have cut off my own way out, and I don't want to go back, maybe there will be an unexpected surprise.
This kind of concentration, this kind of hard work, has brought his cultivation to a higher level. The Worry-free Heart Sutra has been practiced to the middle of the fourth level, Beidou Shenquan has also been practiced to the fifth level, and Tu Dun comprehended the last formula. It has been too long to break through, and alchemy, all the basic theories have been learned, and there are only a few herbs, and specific operations can be practiced to make elixirs.
Zhang Xiaohua also memorized those alchemy formulas in her heart, and when she was enlightening, she also pinched them with her hands, but she was always afraid that she would screw up, so she was cautious.
On this day, Zhang Xiaohua was sitting on the top of the mountain, pinching the magic formula with her hands, trying to get luck behind closed doors, and saw that the true energy in the meridians was drawn out from the body following the changes in the formula, forming a spherical shape, and then being changed into another shape , with the changes of the formulas, slowly from the hands to the arms and then to the whole body, a colorless film of true energy was formed on Zhang Xiaohua's body. Stretching out from under her feet, and drilling into the ground, Zhang Xiaohua's entire body suddenly disappeared, and she burrowed in like a puff of gas.
Zhang Xiaohua, who got into the mountain, released his consciousness curiously, and found that his whole body was wrapped in a black film, and the surrounding area was pitch black. Then, his consciousness was released. In this mountain, the release of consciousness is very Difficult, when his consciousness locked on a place, he recited the formula silently in his heart, his body seemed to shuttle through the soil, and he burrowed towards that place. On the way, no matter it was soil or rocks, he was pierced by himself, as if he It's as if the body doesn't exist at all.
When he got to the place locked by his spiritual consciousness, Zhang Xiaohua recited the formula silently, his body went up, and when his eyes suddenly lit up, he returned to the top of the mountain, but it was far away from the place where he was standing just now.
"Haha," Zhang Xiaohua was overjoyed. This Earth Dungeon has been practiced, which is a bit more interesting than Levitation. It can drill into the soil and walk in the soil at such a fast speed, even if it is caught by the Pulsatilla You can easily escape yourself.
Thinking of the pulsatilla, Zhang Xiaohua habitually looked towards the sea, it was still extremely empty.
Afterwards, Zhang Xiaohua checked the zhenqi in the meridians, and shook her head secretly: "This earth escape really consumes zhenqi, and it has lost nearly one-twentieth of the zhenqi after just walking this short distance. It seems that more practice is needed. Worry-free Heart Sutra, the zhenqi in this meridian is really the foundation of all the spells in the Immortal Dao."
He took out two primordial stones from his bosom, replenished his true energy, and then prepared to try the earth escape again. Zhang Xiaohua is not afraid of being seen by others on this deserted island. She has always used crouching bull stones in her cultivation. , I only use primordial stones to practice earth escape on weekdays, and this small primordial stone has been used for half a year, and the vitality in it has not been exhausted, which surprised Zhang Xiaohua very much.
Zhang Xiaohua used Earth Dungeon to drill into the mountain again, this time he didn't go far away, but chose to drill directly down, he wanted to know if the bottom of this deserted island was still the sea.
But before he got down much, the surrounding temperature rose, which made him unbearable, so he quickly got out. In fact, since Zhang Xiaohua practiced Beidou Shenquan, the cold and heat are basically invulnerable, and there is no heat or cold. ordinary concept,
Even if he practiced on a rainy night, he was not afraid of the pouring rain, but the intense heat in the ground gave him another taste of it, and he was too scared to continue going down.
In fact, there is another point that he doesn't know, the protective film formed by the true energy also has the effect of isolating heat and cold. Since it can make him feel extremely hot, the temperature in the ground can be imagined.
I spent the whole morning trying the newly practiced Earth Dungeon, suddenly disappeared from here, got into the ground, and got out from there again, playing like nothing else, until the true energy in his body was exhausted, it was not comfortable Sitting upright, holding the primordial stone in his hand, he replenished his vitality.
After half a year of practice, Zhang Xiaohua discovered that if she absorbed vitality from the primordial stone and used it to practice the Worry-free Heart Sutra, the speed of absorption would be relatively slow, increasing her skill bit by bit. Qi, when you use primordial stones to supplement the primordial qi you cultivated before, the speed is not so fast. In a short period of time, you can replenish the true qi in your body, which makes Zhang Xiaohua very puzzled. If it is during cultivation, It would be great to be able to supplement like that, now I have to cultivate to the eighth or ninth level. And if the true qi in the body is completely consumed like this, and replenished, then the true qi will definitely be more than before. As for how much more, Zhang Xiaohua has no idea, but just feels it.
"Perhaps this is the principle of breaking and then standing. There is a certain similarity between martial arts and writing, even the immortal way. Oh, I understand. This is the rule of the world. No matter what you do, you must act within the rules. , find your own way in the rules."
In an instant, Zhang Xiaohua seemed to understand a lot, but only a little bit.
Zhang Xiaohua's flying sword, although it is said that he didn't deliberately practice it, but playing in his spare time on weekdays is enough for him to know how to use the flying sword well. Look, no, he is sitting on the top of the mountain, directing the flying sword with his spiritual sense , followed behind a flock of seabirds, chasing them non-stop.
By the way, when he first came to the island, Zhang Xiaohua used his spiritual sense to sweep across the deserted island, complaining all the time that there were no animals for tooth sacrifice, but after two days, he found that there were no animals, but there were still seabirds , many seabirds build their nests on the trees along the coast and in the grass at the foot of the mountain. From this, Zhang Xiaohua also gets a few seabirds from time to time, digs out a few birds' eggs, and roasts them with fire to satisfy their hunger. The booklets were used up, so he had to refrain from the atrocities that harassed the birds.
When he finished cultivating Tudun and was about to make alchemy, he just remembered, isn't it necessary to use fire to make alchemy? Since Huozhezisheng's fire can roast birds' eggs and seabirds, wouldn't the fire for alchemy be even better? That's why he commanded Feijian to chase endlessly behind the flock of birds. The seabirds in the bird flock have the habit of being chased by flying swords. When they see the little sword flying, they will soar into the sky, changing directions from time to time, up and down, but the little sword is like a real seabird, neither fast nor slow, Even if it is attached to the back, it is also flying up and down, chasing for a long time, maybe Zhang Xiaohua is tired from playing, the little sword suddenly speeds up, a cold light flashes, it is piercing the seabird's neck, there is not even a drop Blood flowed down, and then, he turned around and flew towards the top of the mountain where Zhang Xiaohua was.
The little sword flew back to Zhang Xiaohua's hand, and he looked at the seabird in his hand, which was not much bigger than a fist, feeling extremely satisfied.
"I remember the first time I chased a seabird, I couldn't catch up with life and death, but I finally caught up with it, but I couldn't stab the seabird. The feathers of this seabird seemed to have a lot of grease, which was very slippery. Hehe, fortunately. Practice makes perfect, from pricking seabirds covered in bird blood, to now pricking only the neck without bleeding a drop of bird blood, it seems that my progress is not small, Pulsatilla, just wait, how will I deal with you when I go back! ? However, if the Pulsatilla hadn’t picked me up, I wouldn’t have been able to cultivate to such a level, right? Does this count as revenge?”
"Forget it, don't care, whether he repays his kindness or not, Pulsatilla has no good intentions in the first place. I saved his life in Jingyue City, which is considered to be repaying his kindness. Hehe, if it doesn't work, I'll go and get that Nanhai Jiaotong is robbed and let this fellow suffer, hahaha, that's all."
"Speaking of the oiliness of seabirds, alas, it's been a long time since I ate that greasy barbecue. Although I don't like it very much, it's been a long time since I ate it, and I feel panicked."
In an instant, Zhang Xiaohua forgot the thought of seeking revenge on Qin Shiyue, and turned to look at the seabird in her hand.
Alas, it's hard for a clever woman to be without food.
Putting the sea bird aside, Zhang Xiaohua took out the money bag from her bosom, and took out the huge cauldron.
Before Zhang Xiaohua had a rough look at this cauldron furnace, it was a little different from what she usually saw in temples, but now she looked at it carefully, it turned out to be quite different. The talisman looks old and a little fuzzy. The one-and-a-half-month-old cover on the top is also extremely delicate. When it is opened casually, it is hollow inside. Where is there any fragrance?
This is clearly the alchemy furnace mentioned in alchemy, where is the censer for burning incense?
When I got this pill furnace from Xicui Mountain, Zhang Xiaohua was not much taller than this pill furnace. Now I can look down and see the inside of the pill furnace, but the inside of the pill furnace is so dark that I can't see anything. When she realized that she could only smell a scent of incense ash, Zhang Xiaohua frowned and sniffled.
"The monks in Shaolin Temple are really powerful. They can even use the alchemy stove in the immortal way as an incense burner. I don't know how they burn incense in it!"
Zhang Xiaohua releases her consciousness and carefully observes the situation inside the alchemy furnace. That is, if you don't read it before, you don't read it. If you don't read it after using it first, wouldn't you be fighting an unprepared battle?
This is a spherical space, with several groove-shaped depressions in the lower part, and different quaint patterns are carved on the surrounding walls, all of which emit faint vitality fluctuations. On the second floor, Zhang Xiaohua's spiritual consciousness was immersed, and she couldn't see the leader for a while.
"Looking at the bottom of the alchemy furnace, it's not very thick. The carved pattern can be divided into so many layers. It's probably a talisman. The fluctuations from these different talismans are actually ring by ring. Gaps and shortcomings, is it like this? It seems that I really have to be careful to understand, if there is an accident, wouldn’t it ruin the stove? It doesn’t matter if you can’t make alchemy, but you can’t have anything to play with, that’s what matters Yes."
"It's just, how do you make a fire in this alchemy furnace? Isn't it using fire? It is said in alchemy that you need to use your own true energy to ignite the cauldron of the alchemy furnace, but how to use it, how to light it, but there is no clue It has been explained, without the master and professor, it is really terrible."
Zhang Xiaohua scanned it several times with her spiritual sense, but she couldn't help feeling frustrated.
At this time, he couldn't help but focus on those concave grooves. Sure enough, after he strengthened his spiritual consciousness, a faint fluctuation suddenly flashed in one of the grooves, and an ancient text appeared in his mind.
"Haha, let me just say, it's impossible to leave nothing behind, how can someone get it?"
When Zhang Xiaohua finished reading this passage carefully, she couldn't help feeling overjoyed, and saw him pinching the formula with his hand, contemplating it for a while, silently channeling his true energy, and pouring the formula into the pill furnace. At first, the pill furnace didn't For any reaction, Zhang Xiaohua frowned, and repeated it several times. Gradually, the alchemy furnace glowed with a faint brilliance that could not be recognized by the naked eye. Only Zhang Xiaohua's spiritual consciousness could be seen clearly. Entering, the alchemy furnace let out a sinking roar, Guanghua expanded and contracted a few times, and the alchemy furnace suddenly shrank by a circle.
"Sure enough, it's miraculous. This thing can actually become bigger and smaller. It's worthy of being a fairy thing."
It turned out that the text turned out to be the manipulation method of the pill furnace!
Zhang Xiaohua thought of a fun toy, not to make the alchemy stove bigger or smaller, until she got tired of playing, then changed it into the shape of her own hand, and then put her left hand on the alchemy stove On one side, in a somewhat protruding place, the spiritual consciousness was immersed in the alchemy furnace, and the right hand played a few more formulas according to the formulas shown in the mouth.
If true energy is the foundation of all spells in the Immortal Dao, then formulas are the support of all spells.
Zhang Xiaohua spent nearly half a year trying to figure out the magic formula of the earth escape technique. It has to be said that it is a very wise approach. Generally speaking, people who are beginners in the immortal way will first practice simple formulas, such as fireball technique, water sword technique and so on. Or two formulas can be done, and then you can practice advanced formulas, such as sword control, fire control, repelling objects, etc. Escaping formulas are relatively advanced, difficult to understand and practice, and Zhang Xiaohua once At the beginning, I studied the technique of earth escape and did the opposite. Now I look at the simple formula, it is very easy to learn.
I saw that he was slowly inputting his true energy, and using the formulas in his hands one by one, while his spiritual consciousness was immersed in the alchemy furnace, observing the changes in the alchemy furnace. In the middle of his spiritual consciousness, he could see that the slowly input true energy was first input into the alchemy furnace. Among the several talismans, they immediately transferred to other talismans, and then went up one by one. Suddenly, in a certain talisman, a trace of flame was generated, and then, it rushed through several talismans in an instant, and in the pill furnace, " "Teng" sounded lightly, and the furnace was full of flames, scaring Zhang Xiaohua's consciousness to withdraw immediately!
