Pawn Crossing the River

Qi Xuansu slept for a long time. When he woke up, he found that he had left Diliu and was not in the palace city. He was at the place where he could see the entrance to the cave of the ghost country, where he first met Mr. Yin in the ghost country. place.

At this moment, the little girl giggled: "Ride the big horse, ride the big horse."

Qi Xuansu sat up and saw a little girl riding on his bad horse not far away. Although this guy was not physically strong, he was very discerning and knew that he could not offend the little girl. He walked very smoothly and would sometimes He turned his head and snorted at the little girl, revealing a row of neat teeth, which was quite flattering.

It's really a cunning old man.

Qi Xuansu looked down again and saw that the "Xuan Jade of Death" in his hand had disappeared.

Qi Xuansu hurriedly entered meditation and looked inwards at his own condition.

Originally, Qi Xuansu had already broken through to the 18th vertebrae, and there were still six vertebrae and a Jade Cauldron Pass left to reach the realm of the Holy Fetus.

Now he has completely cleared the Dragon and Tiger Pass of the twenty-four vertebrae, broke through the Jade Cauldron Pass, entered the Upper Dantian, and officially entered the holy realm of Sanren. They respectively correspond to the god-refining realm of the qi-refiner, the manifested infant realm of the banished immortal, the martial arts realm of communicating with the heavens, the thunder realm of the alchemist, and the golden body realm of the wizard. They are also collectively referred to as the stage of the return of the innate person, which is far away from the heavens. There is only one step left.

This was expected and nothing. Even without "Xuanyu", Qi Xuansu could reach the stage of returning to his true nature through "Blood Pill". It was just a matter of sooner or later. If "Xuan Jade" only improves one's realm and cultivation level, it would not be worth Taiping Dao's efforts. For the Li family, such pills for improving cultivation level are available in varying quantities and are never a rarity.

The key to "Xuanyu" is that it can make up for the shortcomings of Sanren.

As we all know, Sanren are good at everything. They have dabbled in all five major inheritances, but they are not proficient in anything.

But after Qi Xuansu obtained the "Xuan Jade of Life", he completed the martial arts inheritance and obtained the supernatural power "derived from flesh and blood". Although he could not condense the body and spirit, his energy and blood were strong, and he could even practice the martial arts' unique boxing intention.

This is the mystery of "Xuanyu".

What Qi Xuansu feels now is that his soul has grown unprecedentedly, and he even has the feeling that he can break away from the constraints of his body. It seems that with just one thought, he can break free from the cage and fly to the nine heavens.

There is no doubt that this is the alchemist's soul leaving his body.

In other words, the "Jade of Death" helped Qi Xuansu complete the inheritance of the alchemist. He is no longer the dabbler who can only use the "yin and yang eyes" and can learn more advanced spells.

When he went to wipe out Diswen, Qi Xuansu had seen Lingquanzi's methods and his ability to manipulate others, which made him very envious. And Mr. Yin, with a wave of his hand, he can make false things appear true, as if he is creating things out of thin air, which is even more mysterious. From this point of view, the strength of a martial artist can only be reflected in hitting and resisting beatings, and is far less flexible and convenient than an alchemist.

However, most of the spells are like the martial artist's fist intention and body spirit, which require active learning and practice. They are not born with them. Completing the alchemist's inheritance only gives Qi Xuansu a foundation for learning and practice.

It's like learning a set of hammer techniques. You must first have the strength to pick up the hammer and the physical strength to swing the hammer for a long time. Otherwise, it will be impossible to learn and practice. Therefore, many martial arts techniques have basic skills. We will not teach specific moves first. To build up strength and sharpen one’s body.

"Xuanyu" eliminates this part of the process.

Just as the "Xuan Jade of Life" turns Qi Xuansu's qi and blood into blood, the "Xuan Jade of Death" also turns Qi Xuansu's thoughts into magic power, which is completely different from true energy and blood energy, and is similar to divine power, but divine power is other people's thoughts and wishes. It is transformed by force, and magic power is transformed by one's own thoughts.

What surprised Qi Xuansu even more was that the "Xuan Jade of Death" also came with some small spells, which were directly injected into Qi Xuansu's mind like Buddhist initiation methods and imprinted in the memory of the soul.

This made Qi Xuansu a little dizzy. The advantage was that he could use it directly without having to practice and study.

These spells have no specific names. Qi Xuansu calls the first spell "Ghost Sword".

In fact, it was to summon the ghost-headed sword that almost caused him to capsize in the sewer. It seemed imaginary and real, and it was extremely weird. If it encounters a living thing, it will be an extremely sharp beheading knife. If it encounters a dead thing, it will be like a phantom. There is also a belief in the supernatural. If you think you can't block Qi Xuansu's sword, you will definitely not be able to block it, because your own true energy and divine power will kill you with the thought of being unable to block it. Coupled with the "Dayan Spiritual Sword", it can be said to be elusive and impossible to guard against.

However, this spell also has great limitations. First of all, it cannot be used in places with strong Yang energy, and it will be restrained by the warrior's blood energy. The reason why Qi Xuansu was helpless against the ghost-headed sword was because he temporarily lost his martial arts powers. If he were not in the ghost country, Qi Xuansu would not be forced to the point of life and death.

Secondly, it consumes a lot of mana and is difficult to use for a long time. Now Qi Xuansu's magic power is roughly equivalent to the thunder realm of the alchemist.

When the alchemist Yin Shen travels, he is most afraid of two things: sky light and sky thunder, among which the spring thunder among the sky thunder is the most feared. As the saying goes, "The sound of spring thunder scatters the soul." Without the protection of the body, the soul will be torn apart just by the shock of spring thunder. After reaching the Thunderous Realm, you will be able to travel without fear of skylight and thunder. Not only can you travel during the day, but as long as you are not hit directly by the thunder, the thunder will not hurt you at all.

Controlling the ghost sword with the magic power of the thunder realm can last for about three sticks of incense. As his realm improves and his magic power increases, the duration will naturally become longer.

The second spell is called "herding ghosts" by Qi Xuansu, which comes from the meaning of shepherding sheep, and is used to control ghosts like herding sheep. To put it bluntly, it means summoning ghosts, and they are not created out of thin air, but various ghosts that were previously sucked into the "Xuan Jade of Death" by Qi Xuansu, including the female ghosts in the Xiang Family Fort, and the ghost soldiers in the cave of the Ghost Kingdom.

From then on, Qi Xuansu can catch and raise ghosts. Strictly speaking, Mr. Yin can also be captured and controlled, but the level of cultivation required is extremely high.

The third spell is the "Yin Yang Gate", which is to open a gap between Yin and Yang and bypass the distance between Yang world. Qi Xuansu had previously strayed into the depths of the Ghost Kingdom. Although he hit it by mistake, he already had the prototype of the "Yin Yang Gate".

This spell has no intuitive use for Qi Xuansu. Ordinary alchemists only practice the mind of the soul, and their body, energy, and blood are very weak. Even because they do not replenish the essence, their body is haggard, their energy and blood decline, and their yang energy is extremely weak. Naturally, they can enter the "Yin Yang Gate" ". But Qi Xuansu's physique is that of a real martial artist. His energy and blood are strong enough to practice boxing. Ghosts and evil spirits cannot get close to him, and the "Yin and Yang Sect" cannot bear it at all. He still has to ride on horseback honestly.

However, it cannot be said that it is completely useless. Because of the contract, Qi Xuansu can communicate with the ghost country Dongtian and ask one of Mr. Yin, Mrs. Bai, and Master Wan to come forward.

It's just that it's very limited, and it must be where the Yin Qi is heavy and the Yang Qi is weak. Mr. Yin has already said this.

Qi Xuansu mainly deals with people and does not go over mountains and rivers to find gold, so this seemingly useful purpose is actually not very useful.

Moreover, the "Yin Yang Gate" itself is not stable and cannot be used when fighting with others. It can only be opened in advance or afterward. It would be impossible to ask Mr. Yin or Mrs. Bai to come forward in the middle of the fight. Perhaps it can be done when Qi Xuansu's magic power becomes more profound and his thoughts become stronger.

In addition, there is the magical "soul out of body" of the alchemist himself, which is the same as the "flesh and blood derivation" of the martial artist. It is a kind of magical instinct rather than magical skills, so there is no need to practice.

For orthodox alchemists, this is the foundation of fighting. You can enter other people's dreams, possess others, cast spells, control magic weapons, draw talismans and recite spells, etc. After getting rid of the shackles of the body, you can be more efficient. higher.

But for Qi Xuansu, the biggest advantage is that he can fly, become invisible, and can pass through walls, which is good for reconnaissance and infiltration. However, without the protection of the body, the soul is very fragile, so be careful to avoid the blood energy of martial arts and the awe-inspiring righteousness of Confucianism.

In addition, after reaching the realm of the Holy Embryo, Sanren can acquire three similar magical powers, namely "Innate Divine Calculation", "Qi-Looking Technique" and "Experience the Body Technique".

Let's not talk about the "out-of-body technique". It is similar to the alchemist's "soul out-of-body" technique, but not as good as the alchemist's. It is just a simplified version and is no longer needed.

"Qi-Watching Technique" is a simplified version of "Immortal Qi-Watching Technique". It means that the probability of seeing through other people's realms is lower, the distance for tracing Qi is shorter, the types of Qi that can be distinguished are fewer, and more Qi is consumed. Some of them are unable to detect blindness, unable to see through ghosts' movements, and unable to see through the transformation techniques of demons. Other than that, they are not much different.

The key is "innate divine calculation".

"Experience the Body Technique" and "Qi-Looking Technique" are both simplified versions. Only "Innate Divine Calculation" and the "Ziwei Dou Shu" of the banished immortals have their own merits and are the real special skills of Sanren.

First of all, "Innate Divine Calculation" can predict trends by calculating various variables manually, rather than predicting the future by God's will. Therefore, after practicing "Innate Divine Calculation" to a certain level, you can greatly increase your brainpower, which is reflected in the improvement in memory and understanding. enhanced.

Secondly, it can also be applied to fighting with others, which is quite similar to counting with fingers. What is calculated is the enemy's location, magical power, body movements, changes in weapons, and even the intensity of light, terrain height, changes in airflow, etc. The calculations are extremely complex, and once calculated accurately, the shot will be sure to hit.

If you practice to a high level, you can even predict the enemy's opportunities, and save the process of calculation on your fingers. At first glance, it looks like the opponent comes to take a beating. If one can practice the royal family's "Tai Shang Wang Qing Sutra" and abandon the seven emotions and six desires, then one can turn the "innate divine calculation" into "heavenly calculation", and really count everything, and take advantage of all opportunities when attacking, and there will be no flaws in the code.

However, the disadvantage of "Innate Divine Calculation" is that it consumes a lot of mental and mental energy, so it cannot be practiced until the stage of returning to true nature.

This raises a question, "Innate Divine Calculation" needs to be learned. Qi Xuansu is not in the Taoist sect now, so he has to ask Qiniang for help.
