Xuanjian Xianzu

Chapter 1117 Right Position
After Wei Xuanyin finished speaking, Fa Chang, who was standing by, was secretly impressed and kept silent. Kong Shu clasped his hands together, not surprised at all, but with a look of emotion on his face, he nodded and said:

"I heard that Master Shao Mian once returned to the Tao family before seeking the Tao... He said that the rise and fall of the Tao in Guanhuatian Tower should be in Xuan Tower. Now it seems that the old master's vision is really good."

"The Wei family...is the descendant of that person after all."

When he mentioned the late Master Tao Ping, Wei Xuanyin's eyes showed some fluctuations, and he said:
"I understand what Kong Shu meant. Although Jie Yi is no longer a member of Qiu Zixie and has changed from Xuan Jie to Guang Chan, he is still of the same generation as me. I have tried to persuade him, but his karma has been resolved. Even if Xuan Wei is here, it is still the same as he deserves it!"

"I understand."

Kong Shu sighed softly and said:

"As for Guangchan's matter, I will ask Fajie to give up, at least for now..."

He seemed to have forgotten the purpose of this trip. He looked at Wei Xuanyin in front of him with deep meaning and said:

"I once heard a story."

"When Liang was destroyed, Guo Wu claimed to be the King of Yong and repaired the female water. He fought with Qi Wang, who repaired the male fire, in Yongzhou. The overall situation of the world was in motion, and it was believed that one of the water and fire would be injured, and the winner would be the lord of Yongzhou."

"Guo Wusi is a genius from Yongzhou, a descendant of a great general from the Wei Dynasty. He has a keen eye and is expected to be the next in line. Qi Wang is also not bad, with a strong background, and is a strong competitor for the position. However, Male Fire is not as prominent as Female Fire, and Guo Wusi is more famous. At that time, half of the Central Plains actually wanted to follow Guo Wusi."

Wei Xuanyin's eyes flickered and he replied:

"Xuan Lou has also heard that there were more than just the two geniuses at that time... After all, no matter how much the Tuoba family worships Wei, they are still foreigners. There has been turmoil for a long time, and all the noble families hope to have an emperor of Xia descent..."

The monk nodded and said regretfully:
"At that time, the Murong Xianbei had become powerful and prestigeous. Guo Wusi was worried that Yan would take advantage of the situation, so he repeatedly discussed with Qi Wang to first resist the foreign invaders. However, Qi Wang thought that the opportunity to achieve enlightenment would fall to Guo Wusi, and he made three agreements with the Murong clan before turning around to attack Yong."

"In the end... it was indeed Dayan that broke the agreement, and ended up with one of the two kings dying and the other being captured... Although Qi Wang survived, he no longer had the possibility of seeking the throne, and died in depression."

Wei Xuanyin said quietly:
"He trusted too much in the promises of so-called big men."

Kong Shu put his hands together and said:

"Qi Wang can't be blamed for this. The two of them have different paths and different results. Even if Qi Wang doesn't take this path, he will still lose the chance to seek gold in the end. Why not give it a try?"

"I have guessed a little bit about your path, it is nothing more than showing up in the sun and hiding in the dark, Wei rising and Zhao falling. Although Zhixuan is powerful, the current situation is not something that Zhixuan's family can control. It is also a dangerous path. It is even more difficult for Senior Wei and Lord Yao to control the situation alone."

"Apart from the current situation, Mingyang is violent and tyrannical. Lord Wei has no intention of escaping to evil, but how do you know that the King of Wei has no intention of emulating the Emperor of Wei? Even if he doesn't, will someone force him to do so? Be extremely cautious!"

The black-robed monk closed his eyes:
“That’s all I have to say!”

Wei Xuanyin had already understood his intention of using the past to satirize the present, and his eyes fell on the white snow in the sky. After a long while, he said:
"Xuan Lou is teaching."

The black-robed monk smiled and waved goodbye. The two monks then walked down the steps step by step in the snow, one step deeper and one step deeper, turning into two small black dots as they left the place. Fachang was also relieved and sighed:

“Forget it…Forget it!”

Kong Shu smiled and shook his head, saying:
"If you don't give up, you're just going to block other people's paths!"

Fa Chang disagreed and said with emotion:
"I'm not the only one. Even though King Wei Qilin is imprisoned, does Wei Xuanyin have it any easier? Earlier, Yao Guanyi didn't come out of seclusion. Look at how he was sent? There will be many such predicaments in the future!"

Kong Shu did not refute him, but smiled and said:

"Do you know the origins of the Wei family?"

The law is always:
"[Guan Hua Tian Lou Dao], Wei Guan Yan... It's a pity that he was born in such an era, with yin and yang in chaos, and it was destined to fail."

The black-robed monk shook his head and said:

"Although the Wei family was in decline when they came to the Wei Guanyan, they were still the Chenchuan Wei clan, descendants of the Guanhua Zhenjun. He was the second disciple of Master Tongxuan and the master of Xu Jie."

"Xu Qie who is lazy and wants to be a Jie Linxian?"

Kong Shu nodded and said seriously:

"Xu Qie, an old man who has been practicing Qi for ninety years and has become haggard with white hair and tears, was able to be taught by him to become a Jie Lin immortal. This shows how capable he is. It is also because of Xu Qie that all the cultivators in the world flock to the Tong Xuan Sect..."

“And this Master Guanhua returned the throne of heaven and earth and went to seek the truth outside the heavens. He came to a place of darkness and confusion, and then he thought of future generations, so he erected a monument and inscribed [Land of Regret] on it.”

"This stele is just like his Taoist temple, the Unyielding Temple. It is eternal and unmovable. From now on, those who seek the Tao outside the heavens can rest their feet when they reach that place. If they regret not being able to do so, they can turn back."

"sharp…"

Fachang listened for a long time without saying anything, and then he said:
"I don't know what kind of magic elixir there is in the universe that makes these adults rush to do this."

Kong Shu raised his eyebrows and replied:
"I'm afraid only the adults at the fruition level would understand!"

……

The sun and the moon shine together in the world.

The yin and yang are balanced, and the luster is deep and deep.

A faint white mist flickered, and the man on the jade throne slowly exhaled white air. His golden eyes brightened, illuminating the room.

'It's a lot slower.'

Li Zhouwei's practice this time was not very long. For Zifu, just over half a year was just enough time for him to enter a state of meditation and consolidate the magical power he had just practiced. However, he could also feel that compared with Jun Daowei, the practice of Chi Duan Dun was obviously slower by more than one level.

'Not only is 'Jun Daowei' blessed with destiny, but it also fits in quite well... it seems that there are also many changes in itself.'

Li Zhouwei could feel that the magical power of "Red Broken Arrowhead" in his body did not like the spiritual atmosphere with a balanced yin and yang, and even had a faint resistance to it. Overly strong spiritual energy was beneficial to the condensation of the immortal foundation, but did not help much in the refinement of the magical power.

The [Lin Guang Zhao Yi Dan], which had helped a lot in the first two magical powers, was not very obvious in this one, which made him look thoughtful.

Generally speaking, no matter what kind of spiritual atmosphere it is, as long as there are signs of balanced yin and yang, it is basically beneficial to spiritual practice in a broad sense. Whether it is "Yuzhen" or "Zhenqi", it will greatly enhance the speed of spiritual practice.

Although Mingyang is one of the Three Yangs, his two previous magical powers were extremely active in this spiritual atmosphere of balanced yin and yang, and his cultivation speed was extremely fast... This was the first time he had such a feeling.

"It's already difficult to find this kind of paradise, it's better to find some elixirs... What's more... it's difficult to cross the purple ginseng!"

He stood up and entered Shanghuan Pavilion to check. The [Southern Emperor's Xuanji Method] was already clear, so he took out the jade slip and recorded it carefully.

This method is different from [Da Li Bai Xi Guang] and does not require a fire of separation as the foundation. Instead, it is a technique of responding to life and sex, using life to sense the fire of separation... This means that in addition to personal improvement, a large part of the power of this technique depends on the caster's own supernatural powers!
'For every additional magical power the caster has, the magic becomes more powerful. For Purple Mansion Golden Elixir Dao practitioners, the more life-related magical power they have, the more balanced their life and nature will be, and the easier it will be to improve their magic.'

After all, there can be more than one life power among the supernatural powers. For Mingyang, who only has one life power, it is actually not very advantageous. However, Mingyang's relationship with Lihuo is very close, which can be regarded as a compensation.

This does not mean that one can gain power by practicing this technique without practicing, it just means that the demand for resources is much less, and the ultimate source of power lies within oneself, and if one cannot master the technique thoroughly and practice diligently, no matter how high one's lifespan is, it will be of no use.

'It's not that I don't need any resources at all, or rather, the resources I need are beyond the normal horizon - if I can get a gold element... and then practice this technique, I will definitely make great progress.'

Of course, a person like Li Zhouwei, whose life is so special and who is nothing more than the reincarnation of Gold Nature and practicing with a Gold Nature in his hand, cannot be treated with common sense. He read the outline and felt a little strange in his heart.

"The art of calling the soul and life... is so strange... I don't even see Mingyang using it!"

So, with a slight movement in his mind, he put his hand on the bronze platform again, causing the golden characters on the bamboo slips to emerge one after another. It was unknown how long it had passed before the man moved his eyes away, as if thinking about something.

The skills and techniques in the Shanghuan Pavilion were so vast that he certainly couldn't read them all, but he could get a glimpse of the whole picture. In this short period of time, he only saw five skills that responded to the nature and life:

'Dui metal, Zheng wood, Kan water, Li fire, Gen earth.'

'That is to say, among these life-and-death spells, only Lihuo is compatible with Mingyang... there is no other suitable one, but... why these five? Is there something special about them?'

His current level of cultivation was already quite high. He pondered for a moment and murmured:
"Li fire is an evil meeting, holding fire in its proper position...Dui metal, Shen and You metal in their proper positions...Jia and Yi form a match, the right wood is like stone..."

"As for Gentu, there is also a description in Xuanyue Daotong: [Adhere to justice and abolish restraint, command the mountains and rivers]..."

'These five virtues should be related in some way... and have something to do with righteousness.'

The understanding in those golden eyes became more and more obvious:
"The leap year and the fall year match, I'm afraid they are in it! It's just that I can't see it clearly!"

He lowered his head and thought for a long time without saying a word. A rough idea had already formed in his mind. Then he went up to the attic and saw a furnace standing there with a blazing fire. A man with regular features and rosy lips was sitting quietly in it.

But it was Li Ximing's [Split Soul].

'My uncle's alchemy skills have improved greatly. If he is so confident, he can leave it alone for a few days.'

He waited for a while, read the spell for a while, and saw Li Ximing coming in hastily with his magical power. He was stunned at first, then smiled, and casually put away his spiritual body, saying:

"Just in time!"

He slapped the alchemy furnace, and suddenly the flames vibrated, fairy light shone brightly, the furnace mouth opened wide, and nine light spots flew out one after another and fell into his palm one by one. They were as big as pearls, but looked like white cicadas flapping their wings, and were colorful.

"Not bad!"

Li Ximing already had many refined pills, and this one was a perfect match for Mingyang, so he naturally refined it to perfection. He smiled, handed it to him to see, and said:

"This pill is the [Chanyang Duanjia Pill], which is said to be a pill that can move a person a thousand miles. Thanks to Sima Yuanli, this pill has been refined. I just happened to bring it here for you to take a look."

"This pill can be used to move and kill, and it can also be used to escape. If you take it during your daily practice, it can also help to harmonize the various magical powers in your body. It can be considered a side door, but it has one benefit. If a monster takes this pill, it can regulate its bloodline."

Li Zhouwei put it in his hand, took a closer look, and praised:

"It takes the [Light of Pure Yin in Transforming Karma], and combines it with the meaning of eliminating the Yang extreme. The master of the pill recipe has good means, but his understanding of Ming Yang is not deep enough. He only takes the surface, but not the essence."

"Now, if we take a step further, we should take the meaning of the 'red broken arrowhead', the killing and wounding of the setting sun. If we take another step further, we should take the original meaning of the yang pole, and make it a thorn of rebellion."

"As for regulating the bloodline."

Li Zhouwei thought for a while and replied:

"I'm afraid it's because Ming Yang's inversion originally had some meaning of replacing the respected one, so it naturally has the effect of regulating the bloodline, but the pill formula is not for this purpose. Even if it does, the effect will be minimal."

Li Ximing nodded thoughtfully and said with a smile:

"The owner of this recipe, Cui E... was a figure from ancient times. When he wrote this book, the Emperor of Wei might still be alive. Even if he knew the inside story, he probably wouldn't dare to write it casually... I'm afraid that the day he wrote it, someone from the official residence would knock on the door."

"It's different now. Your guidance is crucial. Relying on my alchemy, if I try a few more times, there should be many variations."

Li Zhouwei laughed, took only one and put it in his sleeve, and said seriously:
"Uncle, take a look at this."

Li Ximing took the jade slip and read the [Southern Emperor's Mysterious Method], and said in surprise:
"What a brilliant ancient technique!"

Li Zhouwei nodded and replied:
"Although this method is difficult, it does not require any resources. When Jiang Qian comes out of seclusion, you can let him read it."

He was a little doubtful and said:
"I don't know how many life abilities 'Lihuo' has. I don't ask for as many as 'Kanshui', but I just hope it's better than 'Mingyang'. If I can have two, it will be easier to use."

"Kanshui" is the Taoist tradition of the Li family. Because of the Xiao family, Li Ximing has a better understanding of it. He said:

"It's not a big deal... I have something to ask you..."

Li Zhouwei raised his eyebrows, but the real person in front of him seemed a little anxious. He turned around a few times before speaking:
"The old man's health... is in danger."

This made Li Zhouwei turn his head, feeling a little uneasy. He counted on his fingers and said:
"It's a bit early."

Even if they are at the same realm, there is a big difference in lifespan between cultivators. Chi Wei lost a hundred years of life, while Yuan Xiu Zhenren Si Boxiu lived a lot longer. Some people with the magical powers of "Jiaomu" and "Female Water" can also live longer...

he asked:
"Is it life span?"

Li Ximing shook his head and said:
"Not entirely. The old man suffered many injuries in his early years, most of which were fundamental injuries. In Zifu's words, they injured his sexuality or life. He has been well taken care of over the years and there is nothing unusual. But as his lifespan is coming to an end, these injuries to his life have become apparent..."

"I thought... I have spiritual resources now, so I want to find that real person 'Jiaomu' or nun Xiangchun, use my magical powers to exchange some things for me, and then I can make some pills. Anyway, I will try it without telling the old man. I can't say how long it will extend his life, but at least it will make him feel more comfortable..."
