Dao Fruit

"Cousin, are you awake? Eat something first and then work hard."

Qiu Yan didn't show any surprise when he saw Pan Rongniang coming in. His cousin had been here yesterday and made lunch.

"When I came, I saw you sleeping soundly, so I didn't disturb you." Rong Niang said, putting the bowl on the table. The aroma was wafting inside, but it was a bowl of meat soup.

"Even if you work hard, you still have to pay attention to your health." Rong Niang said with a hint of reproach. Qiu Yan responded without hesitation, took the bowl and ate.

Rong Niang smiled and gave a few more instructions before turning around and going out to do her work.

The Qiu family's yard has been empty for a while, and many areas need to be cleaned. Qiu Yan is not good at this. He wanted to hire someone to clean it, but Liu Huai stopped him and asked his family to come over and help.

Speaking of which, Rong Niang was fourteen years old and was still in school in Qiu Yan's previous life. However, in this world, girls are generally smart and get married early. Moreover, she was born in the Pan Mansion and was not taken seriously since she was a child. Now because of a After a serious illness left Pan's house, he was like a canary that escaped from the cage, and his mood became better day by day.

"It's just that I have just returned to my soul, so I should rest." Thinking of this, Qiu Yan stood up and gave a few words of advice, but Pan Rongniang persuaded him to come back.

"My uncle said, just concentrate on your studies and don't worry about other things."

After hearing this, Qiu Yan shook his head.

Qiu Yan's uncle, Liu Huai, was not optimistic about Qiu Yan's path to the imperial examination, nor did he think that studying was of much use. According to his original idea, if he spent time and experience reading and writing, he might as well become a bookkeeper and make some money. A hefty commission.

But after experiencing the incident in Pan's house, and after arriving in Qingchang County, he helped the people by giving porridge and gained some fame and prestige. Liu Huai's mind changed and he no longer opposed Qiu Yan's study.

"My avatar's predecessor, in addition to being eager to learn, the purpose of studying was to change the situation of my family and to benefit the people. The three major causes and effects are grudges, kinship, and ambition. Except for the first one, the other two All items can be solved by studying in the imperial examination. If one day he can have the identity, status and prestige of Ma Yang..."

Thinking about it, Qiu Yan remembered yesterday's scene again.

"Other people would probably think that what happened yesterday was just a dream, but I have a divine spirit and am very sensitive to changes in my own divine power. The divine power that dispersed into my soul last night was indeed expelled and lost contact. It shows that Mayang does have the ability to expel divine power."

Thinking like this, he slowly immersed himself in his thoughts.

"Now that I think about it, I realize how dangerous the situation is. Ma Yang can not only fight against divine power, but he can even control the living soul in his hand. He can turn the living soul into a body, turn it from virtual to real, and control it at will. A loud shout made my soul fly away! It has been recorded in many books that a scholar who is successful in cultivating Qi can make ghosts and gods retreat with a loud shout. Now that I think about it, what he said is true!

At the last moment, Ma Yang asked Qiu Yan to step back, and Qiu Yan's soul left quickly and uncontrollably. No matter how time passed or the space changed, it could not stop him in the slightest.

"This kind of ability goes far beyond the scope of spells. It is by no means a simple manipulation of the spiritual energy of heaven and earth! It is more mysterious than the magic performed by the City God!"

Qiu Yan himself had experienced a similar incident, but at that time he was in the City God's Divine Office, which was equivalent to being in the core of the City God's legal domain. As long as the City God moved his mind, he could change his position, and Ma Yang was in Qingchang. After saying one sentence, Qiu Yan's soul changed, directly When I wake up, I am not in the realm of divine law, but in this world!

"The means involved are extraordinary. I can't imagine it at my level. However, Ma Yang's words reveal that he has never practiced before. So how did he get this ability? Huh? This is also possible, Shu Shu It is said that reading nourishes Qi and ward off all evils. The 'evil' here does not refer to simple evil things or monsters, but to extraordinary things that transcend normal categories."

Qiu Yan flicked his fingers and pondered.

"Although last night's experience was mysterious and contained a crisis, it also gave me a revelation. In the past, when I fought with others, I relied too much on my divine power. Once my divine power was restrained by others, I was immediately beaten back to its original shape. This time, Ma Yang was right I have no ill intentions, but if I encounter an enemy and my divine power is restrained, the living soul will be captured immediately, and the clone will have to be abandoned. In the future, if I advance to the Shinto, I will have to slowly gain experience and accumulate divine power like other gods."

Using the clone can quickly accumulate incense, mind, and divine power. If the clone is lost, naturally everything will be lost.

"Before, I was in deep crisis. I went straight from the mountains to Yuanning, and then moved from Yuanning to Qingchang. There was no peace for a moment. Now that I have a little time to breathe, I might as well sort out what I have learned and think about, and understand myself."

Thinking like this, he picked up the pen and ink and started writing on the paper. He concentrated and thought carefully every stroke, which was not only to organize his thoughts, but also to practice calligraphy.

After a few strokes, a few words appeared on the paper.

The first line is two words: enlightenment and foundation building.

The second line also has two words: condense the soul and refine the soul.

"The realms of sex cultivation and life cultivation correspond to each other. My realm of sex cultivation is soul condensation, which condenses human souls, while life cultivation is only foundation building, which is one level lower. And the soul cannot leave the body during the day, so the combat power is limited. , The victory over the three soul goat demons the day before yesterday relied on divine power and magical talismans. With these two methods, we can leapfrog the level and compete with the century-old demon who has refined the three souls. "

Although Qiu Yan's avatar was running around every day, he was still lying in the City God's Temple and had contact with other gods. The one he had the best relationship with was the land south of the city. He learned a lot of information from the other party, including the monster that had refined the three souls. , have at least a hundred years of life and Taoism, and are not easy people.

"It's just that although the divine power is powerful and can directly face the Soul Condensation Realm and the Soul Refining Realm, the situation seems to have changed when facing a higher level of cultivation power."

Thinking like this, he raised his hand and wrote two words on the third line -

Unify.

"Returning to the realm of unity, this is what the person in the painting said, saying that it can break the divine power. Although Ma Yang has not practiced, studying and nourishing Qi is the same method for polishing one's temperament and purely regenerating the soul. It has been accumulated for decades and can be moved by a single thought. Wanmin Nian, it is possible to have the same magical power. The story he told reminded me not to let my thinking be limited. Although cultivation is divided into lives, how to pursue it and how to follow the path of cultivation are not They are all different, and cultivating the soul directly is about cultivating one’s nature. Reading can also nourish one’s nature.”

Thinking like this, he frowned again

"The Guiyi realm is only a realm of sexual cultivation, and there should be a corresponding realm of life cultivation. From this point of view, although I have divine power as a trump card, it is not safe. Improving the strength of the clone is the right way. We cannot forget the king of Tongshan and Shangli. These two mountains may come down at some point, and I will have no choice but to be shattered into pieces. However, the method of condensing the earth soul and the heaven soul is unavailable..."

Qiu Yan was still thinking when suddenly there was a knock on the door, followed by Rong Niang's voice: "Cousin, a friend is here to see you."

"Oh? Someone is coming, I'm going out right now."

Qiu Yan stood up and left the house. As soon as he opened the door, he saw the figure of Rong Niang. She was dressed simply, with a little dust on her body, her face was red, not a trace of sweat, and her eyes were shining.

Seeing this scene, Qiu Yan's heart was filled with doubts.

"Rong Niang's state is not what someone who has just recovered from a serious illness should be in. Even if she is contaminated with telepathy in the Soul Locking Diagram and strengthens her soul, it will not show up so quickly."

However, just as his thoughts arose, he was interrupted by a greeting——

"Brother Xian, you are back, why didn't you inform me?"
