Can Scientific Cultivators Penetrate into the Second Dimension

"Hey, go and go, I've already made my own decisions, why did you come to see the old man?"

As he spoke, he threw a cloth bag out casually, closed his eyes and stopped talking.

Seeing the cloth bag thrown in front of him, Lin Xiu hesitated to pick it up, bowed respectfully to this elder who did not have the name of master and apprentice but turned to leave.

Different from the inner sect, which is high and low, the outer sect of Heguizong is relatively "down-to-earth".

After leaving the Sutra Pavilion, Lin Xiu first ran to the Foreign Affairs Hall to register the task, and then brought his few salutes—a sword, a figure, plus a change of clothes and some sundries, Then set off from the mountain gate.

Hegui Zong is located in the south of the river, and it is located in the most active and rich place in the territory, that is, the Nanling Mountains. The overall layout is arranged according to the direction of facing south. "Main entrance" is located.

However, the location of this kind of mountain gate is basically meaningless except for the initiation ceremony or some festivals that emphasize rituals. After all, all disciples who have entered the late stage of Qi training can already fly short distances with the help of magic weapons, let alone those who have established foundations and even For the seniors in the Jindan stage, most of the people who really pass through the mountain gate on the ground are foreign affairs disciples who need to travel through the outer gate.

All the way admiring the majestic scene in the sect that ordinary people are destined not to see, it was not until he left the boundary of the mountain gate that Lin Xiu calmed down slightly and focused his attention on the next task.

Taking into account the cultivation and traveling of the foreign disciples, the mission assigned by the sect is not very urgent in terms of time, at least it will not be so tense that you have to rush to complete the mission within [-] miles and then come back non-stop. It's not a problem for disciples in the late stage of Qi training, but for most of the foreign affairs disciples who are still hovering in the middle stage of Qi training, the time spent just traveling is unsustainable.

The time limit of the first foreign affairs mission Lin Xiu received was three months, and there were nearly two months of free time in addition to the round-trip time. Considering that the mission content was not complicated, even if it was delayed for ten days and a half months In the end, there was nearly a month and a half to go back to the mountain gate to practice.

"The mission location is Yunguo. You have to pass through the border of Xiguo first, and then walk for about three days... It's quite far away, so don't test my Shuang[-] bus."

Lin Xiu was not surprised at the fact that foreign affairs missions required crossing a country. After all, as early as the previous three years, Lin Xiu had a certain understanding of the vast world of cultivating immortals.

Not to mention the land beyond the South of the River, the territory of the South of the River alone is the size of a continent in the world before Lin Xiu crossed, and more than 800 million square kilometers of land will be distributed over [-] million square kilometers. The territory of several countries, even if the population of these countries is not as exaggerated as reaching hundreds of millions, there are still some at least a few million and as many as tens of millions.

And as an existence dominating the territory of southern Xinan, the majesty and momentum of He Guizong is beyond the imagination of people in Lin Xiu's world. A concept that unites imperial power and divine power.

Just like the scene that Lin Xiu and this senior brother Shen saw before, all kinds of actions made by the lord of a country in order to please a heir who was only an outer disciple of He Guizong at that time, strictly speaking, it was quite normal. After all, there are many crazy things done by mortals in order to seek and seek immortals in some records in the Buddhist scriptures pavilion.

Based on this situation, each sect in the world of cultivating immortals also has its own countermeasures. Among them, the behavior adopted by He Guizong in the south of the river is information blockade. It is not widely known, and mostly stays at the stage of hearsay.

And the effect of this kind of information blockade is directly proportional to the distance between the border of the country and the gate of Heguizong Mountain.This is also helpless. As the largest sect of cultivating immortals in Xinan, there are not only immortal cultivators living on it, but sometimes they will inevitably have connections with ordinary people, just like those numerous handyman disciples who are not qualified to practice in the sect In the end, there must be a place to go. At this time, those countries close to the mountain gate have become good choices.

One must know that even those who have been so downcast in the sect that they were expelled from the sect are still "immortals" among the common people. How can it be possible to completely cut off the existence of immortal cultivators among the people under such circumstances?In addition, nearly half of the disciples that He Guizong needs to take in every three years are recruited from ordinary people, so it will be natural as time goes by.

Based on the existence of this situation, after leaving the mountain gate, Lin Xiu did not live the life of "playing in the world" as imagined, but was a handyman who was guarded near the gate after entering the northernmost capital of Xi Kingdom. The disciples found that all the way to the most prosperous attic in the city "Dengxian Building", almost all the people living here are immortal cultivators from all over the world.

Before Lin Xiu could figure out how to learn some information from these casual cultivators that the sect couldn't understand, he was directly brought to the top floor under the eyes of those casual cultivators who were fearful and eager.

It was night, and Lin Xiu, who occupied the most prosperous place in the city by himself, leaned against the attic window, overlooking the neon night and the bustling people, and had a deeper understanding of the existence of "He Guizong" perception.

Obviously, the reason why I have such treatment is definitely not because of my mere [-]th level of Qi training.

Among other things, when Lin Xiu climbed up to the top floor during the day, he had seen existences above him in no less than three realms, but they only looked at him with awe mixed with jealousy, and they did not hesitate at all because of injustice. Thoughts of resentment.

"Immortal..."

Shaking his head, he returned to his position and devoted himself to training again.

12. The difference between martial arts practitioners and immortal practitioners

In the early morning of the next day, under Lin Xiu's emphasis, the disciples of the handymen canceled many of today's events, including but not limited to riding a white horse with the blood of alien beasts, banqueting the nobles and powerful in the city, and accepting eight hundred Lijia's urgent reward...wait, but directly found a reputable company and bought their caravan to Yunguo at a price of [-] taels of silver.

After that, Lin Xiu also completely abandoned the little boasting and vanity in his heart, and spent almost all the time in the carriage to practice except for necessary travel during the whole journey.

Facts have proved that in a person's life, [-]% of the troubles are caused by his own idleness.

After Lin Xiu adjusted his mood and devoted himself to cultivation, there were no accidents on the way out of Xiguo. There were no strong men with evil intentions who appeared suddenly, and there were no mysterious women hidden in the caravan. That kind of master who plays games in the world, some are just a caravan walking day after day in the process of doing business.

However, during this process, Lin Xiu met a "strange person". Of course, this "stranger" was aimed at Lin Xiu himself. It is the mortals who have only been in frequent contact these days, and this is the first time that they have really come into contact with the group of "Wulin people".

Sun Tzu is a martial artist.

According to this burly warrior, he learned his kung fu from a gang in Yunguo called "Iron Palm Gang". Go, join this caravan also out of convenience.

In fact, after Sun Wu showed off his outstanding skills, the consul of the caravan not only directly exempted him from the 16 taels of silver, but also gave him [-] taels of silver as a reward, hoping that he could take care of the caravan on the way. Sun Wu naturally responded to this kind of thing.

The reason why Lin Xiu knew each other was because he happened to see the scene where Sun Wu showed off his kung fu.At that time, Sun Wu didn't see any movement, but his face flushed for a while, and then he slapped a tree trunk as thick as a bowl by the side of the road, and the latter was slapped in two extremely crisply.

Relying on his eyesight strengthened by spiritual power, Lin Xiu could clearly see the crack marks at the fracture.

This scene made Lin Xiu quickly become interested in this kind of power system different from that of cultivating immortals. In addition, Sun Wu has that kind of informal character, and the two who came and went quickly became acquainted. Among the warriors with internal strength, Lin Xiu also has a general understanding of the martial arts in this world.

Similar to the distribution of realms of immortal cultivators, there are also different levels of martial arts in the martial arts, but they are much rougher. According to the strength of martial arts, they are the third-rate who have mastered fists and feet, the second-rate who have mastered a kung fu, and the first-rate who have cultivated internal strength. , and an innate master who can release internal strength to the outside.

Sun Wu's ability to slap off a tree as thick as the mouth of a bowl can be regarded as a relatively good level among first-class masters.

After learning this information, Lin Xiu's interest in the martial arts system that had just surfaced immediately faded a lot. There is no other reason. According to Sun Wu, it took him a full 30 years to practice this kind of kung fu from scratch. , I have suffered countless hardships during this period, and this is due to various chances and coincidences, and the possibility of going further is very small.

In Lin Xiu's eyes, Sun Wu's palm smashed the output of the thick and thin tree trunks at the mouth of the bowl. As long as any immortal cultivator smoothly introduces the air into the body and can control the aura in the body to spread to the hands, it can be done, let alone the immortal cultivator. They would never use such inefficient means to use spiritual power. Wouldn't the output of any spell be higher than this under the same spiritual power?

In this case, even if an innate master who can leave the body with internal force can be so strong, Lin Xiu remains highly skeptical about this.

"Brother Lin is interested in my kung fu?"

Chatting about all kinds of anecdotes about martial arts—mainly Sun Wu was talking about Lin Xiu and listening. At this time, this burly warrior said suddenly: "Since just now, Brother Lin has asked me no less than ten questions. time."

Lin Xiu was taken aback, and when he was about to explain, Sun Wu had already opened his mouth and smiled: "It's okay, as Brother Lin, it is naturally impossible to covet him because of such a shallow boxing skill."

Without waiting for Lin Xiu to open his mouth, he simply took out a book with the fragrance of ink: "This 'Iron Sand Palm' is written for my brother based on his own cultivation experience in the past few days, if Brother Lin is interested Please take a look."

After saying that, he turned over and got out of the car, not even leaving a chance to refuse.

Looking at the empty carriage, Lin Xiu was stunned for a while before he picked up the "Iron Sand Palm" with some puzzlement.

"Isn't it possible for people in this world to have their investigative skills maxed out?"

……

The cultivation method of "Iron Sand Palm" is very simple. After applying the medicinal wine to the hands, forcefully insert the hands repeatedly into the hot iron sand. Usually, as long as the physique is not too poor, you can achieve small achievements in two or three years, and you can call yourself a third-rate master.

If the supply of medicinal materials is sufficient, this kind of practice will continue for ten or eight years, until every move and style is integrated into instinct. At this time, seven or eight strong men will not be able to enter the body, and a second-rate master will be born.

Next, it is not possible for ordinary people to develop a sense of qi in the body. Sun Tzu only felt the sense of qi in his body after training for more than 20 years in a life-and-death fight.

And once the sense of qi is generated in the body, after one or two years of careful training, the sense of qi will be converted into internal force, that is a first-class master like Sun Wu. At this time, the martial artist can already use internal force to do some things that ordinary people cannot do, such as A slap slaps a tree as thick as a bowl, or smashes a person's internal organs through the skin and flesh without visible traces on the surface.

As for the innate masters after first-class masters...Because Sun Wu himself has not stepped into this level, so it is naturally impossible to have related insights. Observation of that gang leader summed up some information.

Just like the internal force of a first-class master, the biggest sign of a congenital master is that the internal force is separated from the body. It can not only be attached to the weapon to enhance the lethality, but also can strengthen the explosive power of the body through the stimulation of local meridians, and can surround the body to resist damage. It can be said that there is a world of difference with first-class masters.

However, looking at the records above about the various abilities of innate masters, Lin Xiu's sense of déjà vu grew stronger.

"Isn't this a simplified version of the spell?"

Strengthening the lethality of weapons... Just take a photo of a metallic golden blade technique, even broken copper and rotten iron can be used as a magical weapon. As well as the means of resisting damage, it is completely a weakened version of the golden shield technique.

Not only that, when Lin Xiu turned to the chapter of "Iron Sand Palm" about how to generate a sense of energy and how to convert the sense of energy into internal force, the sense of déjà vu became even stronger to the extreme.

"Although the details are quite different, there is no difference in the essence of the operation of internal force and spiritual force... The reason for the difference in the effects of the two is that the internal force of a warrior is produced through the digestion of food, that is, refining and transforming qi, while The spiritual power of a cultivator is obtained by directly absorbing the spiritual energy from the outside world, that is, refining Qi to transform into a god."

"One is the power generated in the body by one's own strength, and the other is the power generated by the aura that overflows the world. It is not surprising that there is such a big gap in power."

In this world, the internal force cultivated by warriors is fine when it acts on the human body. Once it is separated from the body, it is like a drop of water dripping into magma, and it will evaporate in no time; In the high temperature environment, it burns more fiercely.

After learning some of the truth about martial arts, Lin Xiu also simply extinguished the thought of practicing martial arts. Presumably, if martial arts really had a good way, it would have been incorporated into the system by the cultivators long ago. It makes no sense to be in this half-dead state.

The rest of the journey was uneventful. In addition to exchanging with Sun Wu the customs and customs of the destination cloud country from time to time, Lin Xiu also provided some ideas for this martial artist from the perspective of a cultivator. Instead of looking down on Sun Wu, he took a pen and paper to record these thoughts word by word, so that the rookie who had only been in cultivation for three years was a little embarrassed.

13. Longmen Gorge

A week later.

Facing the faintly visible canyon in the distance, Sun Wuyao, who was riding on the side of the carriage, pointed away and said: "After passing through Longmen Gorge, we will enter the territory of Yunguo. There is still a legend about Longmen Gorge. Before the Kingdom of Yun and the Kingdom of Xi were established, the two lands originally belonged to the same big country. At that time, the Longmen Gorge was not a canyon but a continuous mountain range. If ordinary people wanted to pass through it, they would have to go around for several months. more than."

"At that time, the lord of the country was an ambitious person. In order to bring the vast land under his control, he invited an immortal at a great price. The immortal didn't say much, but just flew into the sky and waved downwards. Make a sword—"

Speaking of which, Sun Wu made a gesture of swinging his sword: "After a shocking movement, the whole mountain range was divided into two, and the two places have been connected without any ups and downs since then."

Looking at the vast mountain range with barely visible edges on both sides, especially the gorge wall in front of the road whose height is over a thousand feet high, Lin Xiu was momentarily absent-minded.

It's fine if it's just a legend, but if it's true, then what state would the immortal cultivator who made this earth-shattering move be at?Or is it really a real fairy?

Thoughts diverged, and soon, the long convoy entered Longmen Gorge.

The scale of this canyon can be felt more and more from a close distance. The depth is one aspect, and the length of the stretch is more than ten thousand feet. If it is really caused by a cultivator, it is equivalent to his sword in the mountains. A canyon with a depth of more than 300 meters and a length of more than 3000 meters...

Without warning, a faint palpitation came to my heart.

Less than half a second later, Sun Wu who was riding a horse on one side suddenly shouted: "Be careful, there is an ambush!"

Amid the sound of rumbling vibrations, the road ahead was blocked by falling stones. The panicked convoy wanted to retreat subconsciously, but found that the original retreat had also been blocked by masked men rushing down from both sides holding swords. Caught in a dilemma.

However, the old caravan, which has been on this road for decades, quickly restored order after a short period of chaos. The head of the consul led the guards and went to the front of the people blocking the road and called: "Which side is the good guy?" here?"

"I don't change my name when I go, and I don't change my surname when I sit. The Three Hegemons of Qishan are here!"

Hearing this, the consul in front didn't know how to react, but Sun Wu who was beside Lin Xiu's face sank: "The Three Hegemons of Qishan? Why did they come here?"

As he spoke, he quickly explained to Lin Xiu: "The Three Hegemons of Qishan are three groups of robbers who settled in Qishan. They originally disliked each other and had conflicts. For some reason, they suddenly joined forces one day, and the momentum suddenly became stronger. Don't dare to do anything to them, but their territory should still be in Qishan, the northern border of Yunguo, why did they come to Longmen Gorge?"

Hearing this, Lin Xiu was a little curious: "Is there anything special about Longmenxia?"

"It's not special if you say it's special. Brother Lin, you've seen it too. The terrain of Longmen Gorge is steep. If you set up an ambush here, it's impossible for people who are waiting for you to pass through, and the communication between Yunguo and Xiguo depends on this gorge. The same is true of the martial arts of the two countries, so there is an unwritten rule that no trouble should be caused in Longmen Gorge, if the news of today’s incident is spread, let alone the official, it is impossible for the martial arts of the two countries to let these three gangs go.”

——Of course, the premise is that it can be passed on.

Sure enough, after hearing the origin of this group of robbers, instead of calming down, the caravan became even more agitated.

If it is purely for money, there is no need to tell the history. It is nothing more than to force the subordinates to either eat the caravan or wait to be chased and killed by the martial arts of the two countries.

This kind of thing that even Lin Xiu can think of, the consul who has been in the business for decades has no reason not to think of it, and immediately turned pale: "Guo asked himself that he has never offended everyone on weekdays, and the subway in Longmenxia has deliberately ordered not to cause trouble. That's right, are there any misunderstandings, heroes? And—”

"Fuck your mother's misunderstanding, I've had enough of staying in Qishan, a place where there's not much oil and water. After doing this, the brothers will go to Qianguo to eat delicious food and spicy food. When the time comes, take care of his mother's iron and old copper old!"

"If you are sensible, just hand over the woman and things in the car honestly. I can still leave you a whole body at that time, or wait for the brothers above to push the stone down... Hehe."

As he said that, he yelled up again, and after a short while, there was a reply from the stone platform on the side of the canyon, which was hundreds of feet high.

Seeing this, the commotion in the caravan expanded.

Seeing this scene, Sun Wu patted the mount under him and was about to get up, but Lin Xiu stopped him suddenly, and under the puzzled eyes of the burly man, he took out a stone emitting a faint blue light from an old cloth bag and handed it to him. he.

"Brother Sun, bring it, maybe it will have a miraculous effect."

Taking a deep look at Lin Xiu, Sun Wu took the stone and stuffed it into his chest, then patted his horse forward.

Lin Xiu didn't pay attention to the follow-up development, but took out another object from the cloth bag, and the small puppet quickly enlarged with the spiritual power instilled, and turned into a blond girl in a white dress. There is also a stone that exudes a faint emerald green brilliance hanging on the side.

There was no dialogue, and the blond girl with an indifferent expression held a sword and climbed up one side of the mountain lightly.

As for Lin Xiu, he took out a talisman paper with strange symbols drawn on it from the old cloth bag, waiting for the moment when the conflict would intensify.

It didn't take long. Although Sun Wu caused a little commotion among the Three Hegemons of Qishan by virtue of his status as the elder of the Iron Palm Gang, the huge terrain advantage and the retreat route cut off by him still forced them to launch an offensive. Follow me to kill!" After the voice of the caravan, the last part of the caravan immediately broke out.
