Chapter 63 Genius
There was a look of admiration on Sun You’s face, and at the same time a bit of luck, saying:
After you and Zhong Qingzhu disappeared that day, Brother Wang Gen immediately launched a manual search across the island, but it took three days to search. If you didn't find you, someone advised Brother Wang to let it go. To be honest, even I thought at the time that you two were probably swept away by the big waves, and I was frustrated for a while."
"However, Brother Wang did not know why, he stood alone and insisted on searching. Everyone did not dare to disobey his intentions, so they searched for a few days, but the search reached the seventh day, and I still haven't seen your trace. The senior brothers and sisters on the island are a little bit unbearable, and rumors are spreading everywhere. I see Brother Wang's gloomy face all day long in those few days, alas..." Sun You shook his head and glanced at Shen Shi.
"On the eighth day, Brother Wang was forced to suspend the search. Everyone thought that even he had given up. To be honest, I was about to give up at that time. But no one thought that he was in Xuanri. The hall was closed for one day, and on the ninth day, he went straight to the "Jintang" on Jinhong Mountain. I don’t know how he did it, so he moved the elder Mo who presided over the hall and went to our Qingyu Island personally. It’s the'Qibao Dou Lizhen', which is the mask you saw that day."
Shen Shi didn't expect that in these days when he was missing, so many things happened to find him, especially the majestic and resolute brother Wang, it can be said that his salvation really depends on Wang Gen's persistence, and he can't help it. I was grateful and said, "Senior Brother Wang saved me in this way. I really don't know how to return it."
Sun You smiled and said: "Forget it, we are just starting to practice now, what can we give him back? We will talk about it later when we have a chance."
Shen Shi nodded, thinking it was true, and then he remembered the magic mask he had seen the day before, which is what Sun You called the Qibao to dash around, all kinds of magical wonders, it is really amazing, it is really worthy of the name. He couldn't help but ask Sun You again: "Then what is the powerful method of Qibaodou to lead the formation to find us trapped under the cliff?"
Sun You scratched his head and was also at a loss, saying: "I heard that this magic circle is a very powerful magic circle, and it is also a well-known magic circle in the formation hall, but I can't tell how it is. But I know. After Brother Wang Gen asked to move Elder Mo, it took a whole day to set up this magic circle on Herring Island, during which dozens of senior brothers in the camp were invited to help."
"Oh, it's a big battle..." Shen Shi couldn't help being a little bit stunned.
Sun You smiled and said: "Who said no, and this array will cover the entire island, and the cost of the formation is not small. Didn't you see that, then Elder Rimo led the formation and arranged the array on Qingyu Island. At that time, various formation flags, talismans, spirit crystals, and many other spiritual materials that I couldn’t tell, were swayed out like money, and it took a whole day to arrange them. At that time, people on the island were watching I have to stay, I too..." At this point, Sun You sighed and said, "To be honest, I was really worried about Brother Wang at that time. Such a big battle would be futile again in case he was here. The prestige of the sect is going to plummet."
Shen Shi fell silent. After he was saved, Wang Gen also visited him once, but after inquiring about him before and after his disappearance, he didn't see anything special. In the end, he just told him to take a good rest and then left. I couldn't see that Senior Brother Wang had done so many things to save himself and Zhong Qingzhu.
Only at this moment, in the depths of Shen Shi's heart, there was an uncontrollable thought, full of doubts and confusion: This brother Wang used such manpower and material resources, and even invited a sect elder to arrange it. This was obviously extremely costly. The purpose of the law formation is to save two younger juniors and younger juniors in the Qi Refining Realm who still have little hope of alive. Why is this...
Thinking back to the past, Shen Shi really didn't think he had any value in his body that was worthy of brother Wang Gen's dedication, or could it be because of Zhong Qingzhu?
After spending so much manpower and material resources, I also lost the favor of the elder Zongmen to take action. It is not worthwhile to do this. It is not only Shen Shi who secretly wonders in his heart. Even one of his people who was saved was secretly puzzled by gratitude in his heart. It was of course equally incomprehensible to others.
On Qingyu Island, I don’t know how many disciples of Lingxiaozong who have experienced this scene are discussing the matter privately. It is in the sect of Lingxiaozong, on Jinhong Mountain, in a peaceful fairyland, and there are also a lot of criticisms. .
Wang Gen, this man who is listed as the Three Swords of Lingxiao and also one of the candidates for the next generation of master education, can be described as standing on the forefront during this period of time, and his fame even overwhelmed several others . Although there were a lot of criticisms, especially when the new disciple was lost in the sea storm when he first presided over Herring Island, and he could not find it for many days, the Lingxiao Sect raised doubts about his ability, even for a time. There were rumors that someone in the Presbyterian Church proposed to change candidates, but when the matter developed to the end, Wang Gen invited Elder Mo, almost unexpectedly everyone found the two new disciples, and the momentum of the wind suddenly became One change.
Incompetence in dealing with things has become decisive, procrastination and fruitlessness have become perseverance, and all the people’s opinions are unique, and all kinds of praises and praises are coming. It is said that even the head of Huaiyuan has praised meaningfully on certain occasions. He said:
This son of Wang Gen is not a thing in the pool.
※※※
All kinds of winds, surgings, and treacherous waves in the sect of the Lingxiao Zong are all on the top of the Ten Thousand Zhang Xianshan Mountain, which seems too far away for the tiny Herring Island below the foot of the mountain.
So after the hustle and bustle, the peace on Herring Island quickly recovered. After all, the most important thing for almost everyone on this island is to practice, practice, and practice again. Only diligently practice Taoism and make breakthroughs. When the Qi state leaves Qingyu Island and climbs the Golden Rainbow Immortal Mountain in the Ning Yuan state, those things or another fairy family world will reveal some clues to them.
As the two persons involved in the disappearance of Canghai Storm, Shen Shi and Zhong Qingzhu were lucky to escape. Afterwards, Wang Gen and others also personally visited the cave at Caibei Beach. The scene included the cave under the cave leading to it. The cliffs in the Tiankeng all confirmed the two people's statements one by one, and the matter came to an end with this, and gradually no one mentioned it.
The storm came and went, and the days were living quietly. Practice, quest, earn spiritual crystals, and then continue to practice. Everything on Herring Island seems to be restored to its original state. Of course, some of them have changed from the past. .
Shen Shi and Sun You have different backgrounds but are similar in nature, and have gradually become good friends who talk about everything;
Shen Shi and Zhong Qingzhu experienced the scene of living together and dying in the storm, and naturally became acquainted with each other. When they meet and greet each other on weekdays, the delicate and beautiful girl always waved and smiled at him, and then occasionally when there was no one next to her. Would secretly call him "Little Rock";
Shen Shi was still practising the Purifying Heart Mantra secretly, and practicing twice a day doubled his consumption of spirit crystals, and his desire to earn spirit crystals became greater and greater. In the words of his good friend and neighbor Sun You, this Why did the guy look at him becoming more and more fascinated after he walked through the ghost gate once?
There are also a few unlucky people. One of them is Su He. All the disciples of the Qi Refining Realm who are the duty of the supervisor on the island are all right. Only Shen Shi and Zhong Qingzhu under his name have had a major incident, so he is also very Tragically, Brother Wang Gen directly removed the responsibility of supervision after the incident. Of course, the rewards originally given for supervision were also deprived.
In the end, there is the most unlucky person, but Shen Shi, Sun You, Zhong Qingzhu and other people don't know at all, so he can be regarded as one of their seniors. Because the warning notice was posted on the day of Canghai Storm, things didn’t go well. Wang Gen investigated afterwards. The others were okay. Only this disciple named Lin Hu was severely punished by Wang Gen. All his current duties were removed, directly Punishment Zhizhi went to serve as a guard in the "Monster Hunting Cave" that claimed to be the most bitter, the most tiring, the most boring and the least rewarding among all the places on the Herring Six Islands.
※※※
At the moment of life and death, the turbulent waves resembling a sea storm are thrilling enough to make people lose their souls, but after the incident, over time, it gradually becomes a memory, which quietly turns into a memorable past.
Herring Island is like a paradise, everything is so peaceful, Shen Shi and Zhong Qingzhu have returned to a quiet life, practicing painstakingly or silently towards the Xiuxian Avenue of their dreams.
In a blink of an eye, these peaceful days have passed for three years.
The sea in Baiyu Bay is still so clear and gentle, and the sky is the same blue, sea breeze gusts, seabirds soaring, everything here is so peaceful and beautiful except for the sea storms that happen every spring and summer.
In three years, the teenagers have grown taller.
Twelve-year-old teenagers have become fifteen-year-old half-year-olds. As a result of constantly absorbing the spiritual power of the spirit crystals, these young and fragile teenagers when they first entered the island are now fully adapted to the monks. At the same time, the physical body is also tempered by spiritual power, gradually becoming tough and powerful.
At the same time, those girls who hadn't grown like bean sprouts at the time have gradually bloomed like flowers after these three years, exuding more and more beautiful looks, their bodies gradually grown and exquisite, and their faces become more and more delicate. A beautiful landscape on Herring Island.
But these are just external and vain things. Under the sect, the Taoist practitioners, the most important and fundamental thing in the end, is to practice Taoism after all.
Three years ago, young people who looked at the same time began to learn at the same time. After these three years, they finally gradually started to distinguish the high and low on the way to the path.
Among the more than 400 newcomer disciples, more than 70% of them are still trapped in the elementary stage of the refining realm. In three years, they have still been unable to break through the intermediate stage. The difficulty of cultivating immortality is finally like a scourge of mercy. With a bit of cruelty, placed in front of them coldly.
There are more than a hundred people. As the cultivation deepens, their talents began to show up gradually. During these three years, they gradually broke through and cultivated to the mid-level realm of Qi Refining. According to Ling Xiaozong’s historical sayings, if a disciple who has cultivated to the mid-level of the Qi Refining Realm in three years, he is at least medium-to-high in cultivation, and there is great hope for further progress; on this basis, if he can practice in the next two years At the high level of the Qi Refining Realm, the chances of entering the room and breaking through to the Ning Yuan Realm in the future are extremely high.
And if within five years, the disciples who are fortunate enough to break through the Qi Refining Realm and cultivate to the Ning Yuan Realm have always been valued by the Lingxiao Sect, let alone the most famous and prestigious Three Swords in the Sect. All were outstanding disciples who had cultivated directly to the Ning Yuan realm during the first five years of that year.
However, in this third year, everyone on Qingyu Island, including the direct disciples headed by Wang Gen, saw only one person in their eyes during this year.
A true genius who had directly cultivated Daoxing to the high-level of the Qi Refining Realm in the third year of entering the island. Even in the past hundred years, he has never seen such a talent in the High Heaven Sect. A sensation up and down the sect.
This person is named Gan Ze.
Chapter 64 Spells
The seventh day of May, sunny.
In the early morning, when the morning sun rises from the sea level in the depths of the sea, the golden light reflects the sea water into a magnificent crimson, and there are a few sunrise clouds in the sky, accompanied by the fresh sea breeze, so that Shen Shi who walked out of the cave can't help his heart. To be wide, stretched a big lazy waist.
At about the same time, a rumbling sound rang from behind him, and with the sound of footsteps, a familiar voice with a somewhat lazy tone came to his side, yawned, and said, "Morning. ."
Shen Shi turned his head and glanced at his neighbor, and smiled: "I don't understand. We have been practicing for three years. It stands to reason that after practicing, we will only be exhausted for a while. After a while, we will recover from meditation. How can you see you getting up every morning? Looks like not sleeping well?"
Sun You rolled his eyes and said angrily: "I wait for those spirit beast uncles all day. I'm tired."
Shen Shi laughed and shook his head silently.
Although Sun You said that he was tired, except for a bit of sleepy eyes on the face, the whole person's energy and spirit looked very good. After all, in the past three years, he had cultivated to the middle level of the Qi Refining Realm. Strong and healthy, far from being comparable to when I first started.
The people in the circle around Shen Shi had luck and bad luck in cultivation. Shen Shi himself had already cultivated to the mid-level of the Qi Refining Realm under his diligent cultivation, which was a surprise to himself. In addition, Sun You, Zhong Qingzhu, and the little fat girl Zhong Qinglu are actually quite talented, and they have all cultivated to the middle level of the Qi Refining Realm. Among the remaining unlucky people, He Xiaomei and Jiang Hongguang have become difficult brothers and sisters, and they are still trapped in the elementary stage of the refining realm. This makes them very depressed and annoyed, perhaps because of this. These two people have recently The relationship is better.
There were more than 400 new disciples who entered the island to worship and enter the sect. Today, more than 70%, or more than 280, are still in the elementary stage of the refining realm. Shen Shi, Sun You, Zhong Qinglu, Zhong Qingzhu Both sisters have cultivated to the mid-level of the Qi Refining Realm. Although they are far from being compared with Gan Ze, who is known as the first wizard of the Lingxiaozong in a century, in this round of new disciples, four of them are already quite outstanding. .
Speaking of it, among the ten people under the supervision of Senior Brother Su He, the others looked like talents, and they are all in the elementary stage of the Qi refining realm. They rarely communicate with Shen Shi, Sun You and others. At least four of these ten people have now cultivated to the mid-level of the Qi Refining Realm, which is a bit higher than the odds among all the disciples on the island, which can be regarded as a contribution of Senior Brother Su He.
It’s just that Brother Su He was indeed unlucky. Three years ago, Brother Wang Gen, who was in charge of the Qingyu Island affairs, was offended by the Sea Storm incident. He was investigated afterwards, but he was relieved of this responsibility. Otherwise, Brother Su might still pay. I'm not sure how rewarding I can get.
Sometimes when chatting, Shen Shi, Sun You, including Zhong Qingzhu, He Xiaomei, and others would also talk about this brother Su He, and they often lamented the bad luck of this brother.
But at this moment, bathed in the morning sea breeze, both Shen Shi and Sun You seemed to be in a good mood, and naturally they would not think about something bad. Sun You said to Shen Shi, "Are you ready?"
Shen Shi nodded, but there was a bit more distressed and painful feeling on his face, and he curled his lips and said: "A spell requires three spirit crystals, which is still the lowest first-order five-element spell. These seniors in the magic hall are too Greedy for money!"
Sun You shrugged, with a bit of helplessness on his face, and said: "No way, you have to say that if you are outside the island, maybe you can go to the Shenxianhui shops to buy some bargains, but on this Herring Island , There is only one place to learn the Five Elements Magic."
As he said, he patted Shen Shi's shoulder lightly, and comforted him: "Forget it, anyway, in the Ning Yuan realm, we will only learn a five-element spell at best. We will cultivate to the Ning Yuan realm in the future, and there will be countless more powerful things. Big and better-learned Taoist magical powers are waiting for us, who would care about these complicated and difficult-to-learn five-element spells?"
Shen Shi frowned, thoughtfully, and said: "I have always wanted to ask you, why do you want to learn a five-element spell?"
Sun You did not answer the question, and said, "How about you?"
Shen Shi shrugged and said, "In order to earn spirit crystals."
Sun You said "Hey" and said, "How do you earn it? Don't you have been peeling prawns in Red Clam Village for three years, have you been taking the spirit crystals of Red Clam?"
Shen Shi said unhappily: "Don't mention it, it was good to do things there. As long as I am not afraid of dirty and bloody, I can earn a spiritual crystal in about five days, and I can barely pass it, enough for my cultivation. But recently The old man in Red Clam Village didn’t know what was going crazy. He said that there was some weird cold current in the waters off Herring Island recently. He drove out more than half of the ghost-faced shrimps that had always liked heat and cold, so he replaced the original one hundred shrimps for one spirit. The price of the crystal has been directly reduced by a factor of two, and I have to kill two hundred to get a spiritual crystal."
Sun You stayed for a while and said, "Is there any relationship between these two things?"
Shen Shi said, "That's right, it doesn't matter at all. Anyway, he did just that, and he angered me half to death, but with the spirit crystal in his hands, I couldn't help it. I had to think about whether there were other ways to earn spirits. It's crystal. By the way, you haven't said why you want to learn the Five Elements Magic?"
"Uh, I am for self-defense." Sun You said, "As you know, when we are in the Qi Refining Realm, there will hardly be any divine channel art to learn. Generally, all the monks in the world learn one or two at this time. A five-element spell."
Shen Shi glanced at him and said, "Cultivating this Herring Island, no one will be against you. Why should I consider self-defense?"
Sun You smiled, his eyes seemed to be a little erratic, and said: "Anyway...there is no harm."
Shen Shi shrugged and said, "That's true."
Sun You suddenly remembered something, and smiled: "By the way, you just said that you want to learn the five-element spells to earn spiritual crystals. Is there any mysterious and good way? Tell me quickly, say I can't make this money too come back."
Shen Shi smiled and said: "What's so mysterious about this, it's all written on the task board in the Baihetang, but you are lazy and don't want to look at it."
Sun You was taken aback, and after thinking about it, he still didn't remember the result, and said, "What is it?"
"Two things." Shen Shi stretched out two fingers, bent one first, and said, "The first one, catching monsters."
Sun You's eyes lit up, thoughtfully, and said: "So you are talking about the mission on the green board. It is said that the'Monster Hunting Cave' is on the fifth island of Herring. There are three floors in the cave, each with a different ghost. Monsters, most of them can have spiritual materials that can be used in the alchemy array, and they are all weak demons. As long as they have some skills, they can almost be defeated. Hey, this task is good, and it is a green board. There should be more crystals than whiteboards."
Shen Shi smiled without saying a word, and Sun You said with a smile: "Brother, now that we have said that, we will wait until we are familiar with the five element technique, and then go together."
Shen Shi nodded and said: "It's okay, there will be a care for two people."
Sun You said again, "What about the second thing you just said?"
Shen Shi hesitated for a moment and said, "Fu Lu, I heard that there have been quests about Fu Lu in the Shutang, and the rewards are good, but if you want to do Fu Lu, you must first learn the Five Elements Technique, so I thought about it first. Take a look at it, maybe you can earn some spirit crystals from Shutang in the future."
Sun You's eyes widened and said, "You are really a fan of money, and even Shutang's kind of stingy, greedy, and greedy spirit crystals that are famous throughout the sect want to earn!"
Shen Shi sighed and said: "No way, this is not a lack of spiritual crystal cultivation."
Sun You sneered and dismissed what he said. The two joked for a while, seeing that it was not early, then walked towards Herring, preparing to go to the "Five Elements Hall" of Shutang's building on Qingyu Island together.
Just as he walked, Sun You frowned suddenly and moved in his heart. He couldn't help taking a peek at Shen Shi beside him. Shen Shi noticed his gaze and smiled: "What's the matter?"
Sun You hesitated for a while, smiled and shook his head, and said, "There are three spirit crystals that will hurt later."
Shen Shi patted him on the shoulder and said with a smile: "It's okay, we will use the techniques we learned to earn back the spirit crystals!"
Sun You smiled and nodded, but there was a thought in his mind: The spirit crystal consumed by the middle-level cultivation in the refining realm is almost one in ten days. According to the speed at which Shen Shi's head can earn the spirit crystal in Hongcang Village, It should be relatively rich. Why does he look so embarrassed...
※※※
The Hall of Five Elements is concentrated in herring, just over ten feet away from the west side of Baihetang, and it is considered to be living next to each other. However, compared to the lively scene of Baihetang, where the daily flow of people is endless, the Five Elements Hall under the Shutang is in response to the words that Shen Shi taught the starfish girl that day-Men Ke Luo Que.
Generally speaking, in the elementary realm, the cultivator of the Qi refining realm just constantly absorbs the spiritual power of the spirit crystals to improve the Taoism, but because the spiritual power in the body is weak, and the five elements magic method is essentially using the spiritual power and The power of the five elements of the heaven and the earth resonates, so that they can perform all kinds of singular magic techniques. Therefore, in the elementary realm, the cultivator of the Qi refining realm generally cannot learn the five element magic.
Only by practicing to the middle level of the Qi Refining Realm, the spiritual power in the cultivators has already accumulated to a high level, and they can barely start to drive the five element magic. At the same time, because in the Refining Qi realm, the cultivators do not have the magical power of Taoism. Cultivation, not to mention those magic weapons, so to choose one, two, five elements of magic is the choice of most monks at this stage.
However, it is well-known that the Five Elements Spells have been known for their complexity and difficulty since ancient times. The lowest level of the first-order spells has little power, but the difficulty of practicing is comparable to some ordinary Taoist magical powers after the Ning Yuan realm. It is really cost-effective. If it weren’t really impossible to choose one of the methods, most cultivators would not practice the five-element technique.
In fact, with the exception of those casual practitioners who wander around the rivers and lakes, who often practice the five-element technique, some disciples of the famous sect, many people will not waste energy practicing this method at all when in the refining state. Even on Herring Island, there are many middle-level disciples in the Qi Refining Realm who are not planning to learn the Five Elements Spells.
When Shen Shi and Sun You arrived outside the Hall of Five Elements, they saw the voices of Baihetang more than ten feet away. Looking around, they seemed to be the only two of them, and they couldn't help laughing at each other.
Shaking his head, Shen Shi walked in with Sun You. Although the Five Elements Hall seemed to be in a light business, the building itself was quite spacious and magnificent, and the gate alone was quite tall.
Shen Shi had just stepped over the threshold, suddenly startled, looked somewhere in front of the hall, startled, and said in astonishment: "Qing...Sister Zhong, why are you here?"
