divine talisman

The answer was quickly revealed.

Under the eyes of everyone, a young girl in a green skirt walked in calmly.

With bright eyes and bright teeth, hair like clouds, her charming melon-seeded face was slightly raised, and there was a trace of pride that could not be concealed in her calm expression.

"Miss Su!"

Seeing the girl in the green skirt, Li Huai was the first to react, stood up abruptly, and made a sound of surprise.

At this time, everyone present also recognized the identity of the girl in the green skirt, some were excited, some were surprised, and some frowned slightly.

"Longyuan Sujiao has met all the uncles." The girl in the green skirt bent slightly and said in a low voice.

The elders of the Li family recovered from their initial surprise, and greeted Su Jiao with smiles. After Su Jiao was seated, the First Elder Li Fengtu suddenly asked, "Xiaojiao, who is the Du Qingxi you mentioned just now?"

"Of course she's the owner of Qingxi Restaurant." Su Jiao smiled lightly, then sighed softly: "She is a well-known heavenly proud daughter in Longyuan City, the treasure in the palm of Patriarch Du, even I dare not easily offend her. her."

what!

The behind-the-scenes owner of Qingxi Restaurant is actually the eldest lady of the Du family in Longyuan City?

The whole place was shocked.

Longyuan City is the core of the million-mile southern border, like a king's capital, almost all the powerful families and sects in the entire southern border are entrenched here.

Among the many great forces, the eight major sects, the three major schools, and the six major families are the most eye-catching.The strength of these big forces and their profound foundations are beyond the imagination of ordinary people.

The Su family from Su Jiao, and the Du family from Du Qingxi are two of the six major families in Longyuan City. The little girl of one of the big families still has to maintain enough respect, this is the gap between strength and background!

Damn!

If it wasn't for Su Jiao's appearance, my Li family would almost have suffered a catastrophe this time... Thinking of the terrifying background of Qingxi Restaurant, Li Fengtu was terrified for a while.

"You don't have to worry, uncles, and you don't have to take action for a ruined family. As far as I know, Du Qingxi seems to want to train him to be a spiritual chef and take him into the Nanman Nether Realm's trial place. By then , I’ll just go in and snatch the Dongming Token.”

Su Jiao's expression was serene and calm, as if she was talking about an inconspicuous matter, she said with a soft smile: "I would like to see what this guy who was engaged to me since childhood is capable of."

"Since Miss Su has come to Songyan City, as the host, let me go with you." Li Huai said loudly, with a strong eagerness in his eyes undisguised.

"That's work."

Su Jiao nodded with a smile, her expression remained calm, and she couldn't tell what was going on in her heart.

……

Three months passed by in a hurry.

Chen Xi sat on the ground and slowly opened a book.

The book recorded his three-month cultivation experience and mental journey. From the day he killed the two-headed purple rhinoceros monster, he began to write down his daily cultivation gains on the pages of the book.

The reason why he did this, Chen Xi couldn't say a reason, it seemed that it was because he had bid farewell to the work of making talismans that he had been doing for four years, and he found it difficult to adapt, so he always wanted to pick up the talisman pen to scribble and scribble. .

In fact, Chen Xi himself knew that he still loved making talismans very much. He liked the patterns of runes that poured down from the end of his pen, and liked those mysterious, slender and beautiful trajectories of runes...

But now, all of this appears in the book in the form of words, recording bit by bit what he doesn't want to confide in others.

"I'm very happy. Senior Ji Yu praised my rapid progress in footwork. In fact, I know that without the guidance of senior Ji Yu, I would never be able to reach the level of 'knowledge' in "The Eight Steps of the Dragon" so quickly."

"Tonight, I practiced the sword art of "Ruan Cloak Sword Art" to no avail. I was unable to break through the realm of "knowledge" for a long time. I was very annoyed. I sat by the stream in a daze, thinking of my younger brother who practiced sword with his left hand and was steadfast. What do I have? Are you qualified to be annoyed and shrink back?"

"I finally became a Eryeling chef. Both Pei Pei and Qiao Nan praised me as a culinary genius, but old man Ma expressed strong opposition, saying that he was afraid that I would be spoiled and not conducive to my growth...haha, in fact, Ma Although the old man has a grumpy and weird temper, he still has a cute personality."

"In the middle of the night, while walking in the forbidden area of ​​the Southern Barbarians, I came across a powerful yellow ape, a congenital divine beast. Its skin was as fine as iron, and its sword was hard to hurt. It was as fast as electricity, and its power was infinite. Seeing that there was no way to escape, I resolutely rose up and fought until the true energy was exhausted, and my body was destroyed. He was seriously injured, and he pierced his throat with swordsmanship and killed him on the spot. After a life-and-death battle, Dabengquan finally advanced to the third stage of "Bengshi like a needle", and his swordsmanship also advanced to "knowledge". It is really gratifying Hey, senior Ji Yu said with a smile, it should be clear!"

……

Flipping through the pages, as if seeing his own emotions at that time, Chen Xi couldn't help but a smile appeared on his lips.

"Hey, you kid can still laugh?"

Old man Ma pushed the door open and opened his mouth in surprise.In his impression, Chen Xi was indeed like his nickname 'Chen with Facial Paralysis', his complexion hadn't changed at all, and seeing the fleeting smile on Chen Xi's lips at this moment, he couldn't help being greatly surprised.

Chen Xi closed the book, and asked, "Shouldn't it be time to learn the culinary skills of Chef Sanyeling?"

"You haven't advanced to the Purple Mansion Realm yet, so you haven't made much progress in your studies now." Old man Ma shook his head and said, "I'll let you know when I come this time. Boss Du will talk to you later."

As he said that, old man Ma glanced at the jade slip beside Chen Xi, picked it up and looked at it, and couldn't help but asked in astonishment, "The chaotic cloak sword technique?"

"En." Chen Xi nodded.

In the storage ring obtained from hunting the big purple rhinoceros that time, 3000 yuan of spirit crystals were stored. Two months ago, he took out 500 yuan of spirit crystals and asked Pei Pei to buy this "Random Cloak Sword Art" on the market. .

"Ruan Cloi Feng Sword Art" is also considered a treasure among middle-grade martial arts. The sword moves are famous for being ethereal like the wind and sharp and sharp. After being repaired by Ji Yu, the spirit of the cave, the few six moves have completely changed their appearance and quality. It even went up to a higher level, making Chen Xi unable to put it down.

"Yes, you can use some sword skills to protect yourself."

Old man Ma coughed dryly: "But Chen Xi, I think your mind should be on the way of cooking. A young man with cooking skills like you can completely reach the highest level of a spiritual chef, and his voice will shake the entire Great Chu Dynasty. When the time comes Even the Emperor Chu will invite you to be his royal cook."

Old man Ma drew Chen Xi a tempting pie that was enough to excite all spirit chefs, but Chen Xi was indifferent, because he had too many things to do, and it was impossible for him to be a spirit chef all his life.

"Hey, think about it for yourself, I won't force you. If you have a chance, you can go to the Great Chu Dynasty's ten-year spiritual chef ranking competition, and you can help me fulfill a wish, how about it?"

Old Man Ma patted Chen Xi's shoulder, with a rare trace of nervousness and anticipation on his face.

Perhaps this is the long-cherished wish that old man Ma has longed to fulfill in his life?This reminded Chen Xi of his grandfather, the old man longed for the day when he could rebuild the Chen family before he died, but unfortunately he was killed by the enemy before his wish was fulfilled...

Thinking of this, Chen Xi felt sore, and said firmly, "I promise you!"

Old man Ma was stunned for a moment, then turned around and left silently after a while, until he walked out of the room, and then burst into laughter, his deep and hoarse voice revealed endless joy and relief.

If grandpa was alive, he would laugh as happily as old man Ma when he saw my cultivation advance by leaps and bounds, right?

Chen Xi shook his head, tried his best to dispel the unrealistic thoughts in his mind, picked up the talisman pen, and wrote something on a blank piece of paper.

Goooooooo~

Ji Yu didn't know when he appeared in the small black room, took a few sips of the wine gourd, and asked, "Is it finished?"

Chen Xi hummed, and handed over the paper filled with lines of Cang Qiu's handwriting.

The handwriting on paper is divided into four categories.

The first category, the chapter on cultivation, is the congenital perfection of Qi refining, and the fifth level of congenital body refining.

In the second category, martial arts chapters, "Da Bengquan" reached the perfect state of harmony between man and nature;

The third category, weapons chapter, Qingchong sword, magic weapon that does not enter the rank.

The fourth category, self-assessment of combat power: Invincible under the purple mansion, however, the winning rate of challenging opponents beyond the realm is not high.

From the day he practiced body skills and sword skills, Ji Yu asked him to set aside one day every month for introspection, understanding changes in strength and summarizing combat experience.

According to Ji Yu, without hard work, it is not enough to talk about progress; without self-examination, how can we achieve great things?

Chen Xi likes this method very much. Only by being good at summing up experience and self-reflection can he make up for his own shortcomings, and walk more steadily and quickly on the journey of cultivation.And this kind of paper for writing self-examination was preserved by him cherishedly and compiled into a book called "Self-examination Record".

After watching it, Ji Yu was noncommittal, picked up a pen and added another line of words on it: "Shenhun, the realm of mind power."

Chen Xi took a look and couldn't help but be taken aback.

As far as he knows, in the human body, the soul can be said to be the most mysterious existence. The power of the soul is mysterious and unpredictable. It can be roughly divided into five realms: perception, mind power, spiritual mind, spiritual mind, and spiritual consciousness.

However, this division of power is not rigorous. Some people are born with a strong soul, and they can already condense their thoughts when they step into the innate realm, while some people don't feel the power of their soul until they step into the realm of Zifu.

The gap, in the final analysis, is mostly caused by the lack of the method of contemplation of the soul.

Without the method of visualization, the power of the soul cannot be cultivated, and it can only be improved with the improvement of the realm of cultivation. Because of this, in the practice world, there is a unified cognition, that is, monks in the innate realm have perception The cultivator of Zifu possesses the power of mind, the cultivator of Huang Ting possesses the power of mind, and above Nirvana is all consciousness.

"The magical use of spiritual consciousness is by no means as simple as you imagine. If you visualize the imprint of the real body left by the master day and night, you may have discovered that the power of the divine soul can not only continuously enhance your perception, but also feed back on your cultivation. For harmony with martial arts."

Ji Yu lay lazily on the rattan chair, and explained softly: "If it weren't for your strong spirit, it would be impossible to cultivate Dabengquan so quickly to the point where man and nature are one. Similarly, your body and sword skills In order to make rapid progress, in addition to hard work and hard work, a powerful soul also plays an inestimable role."

In fact, Chen Xi had already vaguely sensed the power of the soul from his talisman making and cooking skills. Hearing Ji Yu's explanation at this time, he instantly felt a sense of enlightenment.

"It seems that I will pay more attention to the cultivation of the soul in the future..."

Muttering to himself, Chen Xi raised his head to look, but Ji Yu was nowhere to be seen. Just as he was stunned, he heard a knock on the door.

"Chen Xi, the Southern Barbarian Underworld Trial will start in three days. Come out, I have something to talk to you about."
