I'm the one running the game

In Wangchao Mansion, Lu Xingshi found a restaurant and flipped through the "Yin Yang Illustrated Annotations". As Song Fang said, this thing is not profound, but it is very suitable for him.

It records two spells, a pill recipe, a formation and two talismans, and then some common sense, cultivation and other matters.

The two spells are the Lingjian Jue, which is both offensive and defensive, and the Qinglin Technique, which is used to treat diseases and injuries.

The pill recorded in the pill recipe is called Lingding Dan, which can be used to restore mana and stabilize the mind.

The formation is more special. It is the Lingguang Demon Subduing Formation. If you practice in this formation, you can greatly reduce the influence of the inner demon. It is used to assist in cultivation.

The two talismans are the Golden Light Talisman and the Exorcist Talisman. These two talismans complement each other. When used on yourself or attached to a building, they can produce golden light and exorcise evil spirits, and drive away, isolate, and harm demons and monsters.

If it falls on demons and monsters, it can cause a lot of damage.

Lu Xingshi also practiced the Spirit Sword Art and the Qinglin Art, but he mainly studied the former. When this magic is perfected, the magic power can be condensed into two spiritual swords. More importantly, Lu Xingshi was not satisfied with it and judged that this should be one of the components of a certain great magic.

The two magics that Lu Xingshi got were both small magics with limited effects.

As for pills, formations, and talismans, there is no quality division, but it depends on the user.

The magic was quickly mastered, and two semi-illusory palm-sized spiritual swords, one black and one white, appeared in Lu Xingshi's hands.

As long as the magic power can keep up, the spiritual sword can always exist.

The two spiritual swords have no entity and look very illusory. They should only be used once before they will break and dissipate.

As for small magics, it's fine as long as they can be used.

On the contrary, Lu Xingshi is more interested in the pill called Dingling Pill.

His Disha Daoguo contains boiled stones, yellow and white, and taking.

Boiling stones is to refine the medicine of gold and stone for consumption. Huangbai is derived from alchemy to enlighten gold and silver, which can be used for purification and transformation. Taking medicine is to collect the essence of Yimu to refine elixir and swallow it, which can cure all diseases or detoxify all poisons.

In fact, all three are related to alchemy, especially boiling stones and taking medicine, both of which are eaten, but the eating is different.

As for the others, only the Lingguang Demon Subduing Formation and his Disha Dao Fruit·Guiding are related, both of which are used for cultivation.

Guiding can deeply benefit people and prolong their lives. It is necessary to regulate qi, make blood vessels smooth, eliminate all diseases, and give corresponding increases in cultivation.

But in Lu Xingshi's view, Disha Dao Fruit is still just a technique. It is useful, and it is indeed useful, but there are also many useless ones.

For example, if the original Earthly Evil Dao Fruit·Bao Ri, if his spiritual root of heaven and earth was not the Fusang tree, and there was the Golden Crow of Heaven and Earth, this would enable the Earthly Evil Dao Fruit·Sheng Guang to be improved with the help of the Earthly Evil Dao Fruit·Bao Ri, otherwise simply making the sun hotter is indeed a great ability, but what is the use?

So there are limitations.

As for the Earthly Evil Dao Fruit of Covering the Sun, it is indeed only one word different from the Bao Ri, but the effect is very different.

Is Covering the Sun an ability to conceal the secrets of heaven, or a passive skill, so that others cannot calculate Lu Xingshi with the ability to deduce the secrets of heaven, but this also depends on the difference in strength between the two sides. If the gap is too large, the effect will decrease or even be ineffective.

And the overall power also depends on Lu Xingshi's cultivation. Dao Fruit is like this, and it is a skill that can grow.

Unlike spells, there will be a need for renewal. Of course, if the cultivation is deep enough, even the lowest-level spells can become extremely powerful, so the self is still the most important.

Lu Xingshi glanced at the materials needed for the Calming Pill, and found that they could be bought. In addition, the materials for talismans and arrays could also be purchased as long as there was money.

This made Lu Xingshi understand why there were evil ways that coveted the property of ordinary people.

Poor in literature, rich in martial arts, practicing Taoism ruins the family.

It is true that cultivating Taoism does not require external objects to cultivate oneself, but it is necessary in the process of cultivation.

Whether it is talismans, arrays, or elixirs, or even the refining of equipment that Lu Xingshi has not yet touched, it is a big expense, and more importantly, there is the possibility of failure.

Once it fails, it will be a waste of money.

After Lu Xingshi dispersed the spirit sword, he began to eat and drink. With the boiling stone and taking two earthly evil Taoist fruits, he could also increase his cultivation by eating, but the increase was not much, and more importantly, it enhanced the efficacy of the elixir and assisted the alchemy.

While eating, he heard a noisy sound coming from downstairs.

He looked out and saw a team of elite soldiers walking over.

The body exudes an iron-blooded aura.

‘The court seems to have ways to deal with the ascetics, but these methods are more limited. ’ Lu Xingshi noticed that this group of soldiers was surrounded by something similar to the fate of the country, but compared with the fate in the martial arts world, it was too different.

And if you really want to say it, it should be aimed at demons and evil people. Normal ascetics will not kill officials for no reason unless there is something wrong with the official.

But if the official really has a problem, he will not be protected.

“Alas, there are only a thousand soldiers, and now there are only these people left.” A diner saw this scene and couldn’t help but sigh.

“Brother, may I ask what happened?” Lu Xingshi asked curiously.

“Walking dragon.” The other party said directly: “Before, there was an evil dragon that intended to turn into a dragon and set off a flood. The court sent troops to stop it, and there were also heavenly masters and Taoists to help.”

"Although we stopped the dragon from running away and cut off the scales of the evil dragon, it still let it escape."

This diner seemed to be a local of Wangchao Prefecture, so he knew a lot.

"All the Taoist priests from Luofu Sect, Jiuqing Sect and other sects also went out to find the trace of the evil dragon and eliminate all the evil." The diner added.

After hearing this, Lu Xingshi also understood that Song Fang's matter was to find the dragon that failed to run away.

"Master, please tell me more about the dragon running away. I just arrived and don't know anything about it. I don't want to touch any taboos." As he said this, Lu Xingshi asked the waiter to serve the other party good wine.

Seeing that Lu Xingshi was so polite, the other party said no, but actually did not refuse.

He also told the cause and effect of the dragon running away.

This dragon was originally a big snake in the mountains. It accidentally got the Tao and turned into a snake. After going through untold hardships, it became a dragon.

During this period, he did not do any evil, but instead practiced hard.

Naturally, no one would come to subdue such a demon who did not do evil.

But who knew that the other party actually planned to transform into a dragon by walking on the dragon, which was indeed much more successful than jumping over the dragon gate.

This was a flood caused by the waterway, and the speed was extremely fast. There was no time to evacuate, and it was inevitable that the surrounding creatures would be devastated. Once it started, it could not be stopped. Not to mention the court, the cultivators would not let you succeed.

So this was not a tragic siege.

It was just that the water was surging, and although the cultivators and the court successfully stopped the dragon, they suffered heavy losses in the end.

Lu Xingshi also understood why, it was nothing more than that this evil dragon chose the evil way to upgrade, so it accumulated karma and eventually died in the catastrophe.

If the other party chose to jump over the dragon gate, it would face the heavenly calamity, and the possibility of surviving it would be even lower.

However, once successful, the other party would become an immortal god of the water god lineage, instead of an evil dragon being killed by someone.

Even if he is not dead now, the karma formed by walking the dragon has already been generated, and the other party must be burdened with karma now.

Lu Xingshi did not think of looking for trouble with this evil dragon. This happened several days ago, and the evil dragon did not know where it ran to, and it was impossible to find it even if he wanted to.

Even if he found it, Lu Xingshi was not sure that he could kill it without cheating.

Of course, if he met it, Lu Xingshi would definitely not let it go.

"This dragon is really seeking death."

"Why not take the good and grand road, but must take this evil and demonic way." Lu Xingshi shook his head and said.

Even if it succeeded, it would not live long.

As for why this evil dragon wanted to turn into a dragon, Lu Xingshi also had some guesses. It was nothing more than knowing that there was a great catastrophe of heaven and earth and the five turbidities and evil times, and wanted to take the opportunity to become a Taoist.

But the problem is that no matter how weak the righteous way is, these evil ways can't touch porcelain. The immortals and gods just have no way to intervene. If you are not dead, what can you do even if you become a Taoist? Moreover, the number of Taoist practitioners is far greater than that of the evil ways.

After Lu Xingshi finished speaking, he felt a chill on his back. It was the effect of the Earthly Evil Dao Fruit Mengtou.

Looking back, he saw a burly man who was grabbing mutton with his hands and putting it into his mouth, with a fierce look in his eyes.

This abrupt feeling gave Lu Xingshi an idea in his mind, that is, he might have met the real person who said bad things behind his back.

The evil dragon was cunning, and it seemed possible to be in the dark under the lamp.

The opponent's reverse scale was severely injured, and he must have been seriously injured. It should not be able to escape far, so it is really problematic that he has not been found until now.

And the dark under the lamp can explain it.

As for why many cultivators did not think of this, it is also very simple. If they really knew, how could this evil dragon sit here openly, and he would have been killed long ago.

It is precisely because they don't know or don't think that it is called the dark under the lamp, otherwise why is it called so.

"What are you looking at? Have you ever seen or heard something interesting?" Lu Xingshi glared back without hesitation. If it was the evil dragon in its prime, Lu Xingshi would consider running away.

But in your situation, do you still dare to cause trouble in Wangchao Mansion?

Even if Lu Xingshi can't kill the other party, the evil dragon will die if he can hold it back for a short time.

There is a heavenly master in Wangchao Mansion.

A heavenly master is a Taoist who has reached a certain level of cultivation and has been canonized. At least they are cultivators who have mastered a great magical power.

The evil dragon is naturally no match.

When the man saw Lu Xingshi's retort, his face became even uglier, but he restrained himself and did not take action immediately.
