Chapter Twenty-Four: Ding Chinese Medicine Refining, Life and Death in Jade

The fire under the Longshang Star Ding was burning, and seeing that the fire was weakening, Zhang Yan, who was sitting on the futon, picked up a few more firewood and sent them to the Dingxia.

After the Lord of Linya County sent the Five Elements Divine Sand, he went to Ai Zhongwen to exchange for a lot of herbs, and a few days later, Luo Xiao immediately opened the Ding Refining Medicine, and practiced more than a thousand pills in only ten days, and then gave it to him in one go.

Luo Xiao sorted the remaining herbs into the Baoding, and Zuihou himself jumped into the Dingzhong, and took care of Zhang Yan to cover the Dinglid, and practiced it every day with a simmer, and opened it every seven days, which was called the "Medicine Refining Method".

Originally, Luo Xiao didn't dare to try it easily, but at the moment, this Dragon Shang Xingding was something that could not be found, as long as the method was safe, relying on the power of Ding Huo to boil, it could directly attack the internal organs, wrap the vitality to wash the impurities, and move the vitality to rot and revitalize.

According to Luo Xiao's instructions, Zhang Yan initially boiled it over low heat every day, and every seven days, he had to open the Ding and replace it with a batch of herbs, and every time Luo Xiao would shed a layer of dead skin on his body, and at the same time, he also needed to pour out a whole Ding of blackened scum, after each refinement, Luo Xiao's qi was even stronger, which opened Zhang Yan's eyes.

Now it has passed the third seven-day period, according to Luo Xiao said, during this period of time, it is necessary to use fierce fire to attack continuously, but the time is calculated, the day of opening the tripod is approaching, but there is no movement in the tripod, and the original trace of the qi is not at all recognizable, I don't know whether it is overcooked or has not yet exhausted the full effort.

Without Luo Xiao's instructions, Zhang Yan didn't dare to open the Ding rashly, and only cared about his own meditation and cultivation.

In the past month or so, he has been practicing his qi day and night, and he has repeatedly swallowed a large number of pills, and these days, the pills he has eaten every day are as good as the sum of the pills he has taken in the past.

Under the dedication to hard cultivation, the Yuan Zhen Qi in the body became more and more condensed, and the Qi that was originally as lively as an ape has been tamed like a lying ox, stable like a turtle, and resting in the Dan Aperture, and the realm of "Yuan Cheng Entering the Truth" has gradually stabilized, and at this time he feels that he can further cultivate the next step.

Picking up the "Xuanyuan Internal Reference Record" in his hand, although this book has been read for a long time, he still read it carefully, and then he reached out and held the remnant jade in his sleeve, and his consciousness sank into the clone.

As his cultivation has improved, it seems that Yuzhong has become a little different from before.

Originally, the jade was a misty piece, not distinguishing between up and down, left and right, heaven and earth, it seemed that there was nothing else but himself, and the doppelganger was also empty and swaying when walking in the jade.

But now he felt as if he was in a wide space, and there was a difference between the top and the bottom.

Zhang Yan looked up, there was a mass of void and clear qi above, but the feet were thick and turbid as stepping on the ground, if you look at the evolution of Hongmeng, the beginning of the jade can be described as "chaos like a chicken, clone in it", but now it can be called "clear qi rises, turbidity falls, yin and yang are divided, and the universe is initially determined".

Originally, after his own consciousness entered the jade, he could still perceive that what he was carrying was only a false doppelganger, but at this moment, as soon as his mind took over, all his thoughts and feelings were clear and true, and he couldn't distinguish between inside and outside with the deity at all.

If Zhang Yan realized, it seemed that it was because of his cultivation that the situation in Yuzhong had changed, and the clone had become more real.

As he pondered, he kept walking through the remnants of jade, but the space here was incomparably large, and it seemed that there was no end to it.

He secretly thought that it seemed that the secret of this piece of remnant jade was far more than what he was looking at at the moment, but only improving his cultivation was fundamental.

At this moment, he didn't have the heart to study deeply, so he sat down on the ground, put on a posture with five hearts facing the sky, and began to silently run the mental method on the "Wonderful Record".

According to the formula, a cultivator needs to lift a qi machine, and then divide it into two, two and then four, and then enter the four veins, and each of these four qi machines has a different method of operation, and there can be no deviation in the slightest.

Although Zhang Yan had been mentally prepared, the degree of difficulty at this time was far beyond his imagination, he tried hard to control it, and reluctantly walked the first step, but when he reached the second step, his mind was negligent, and his qi was suddenly chaotic, and he rushed to all parts of his body.

He was "suddenly" shocked in his heart, and his consciousness returned to the main body, and when he looked back again, he found that the clone had been counterattacked by the qi machine and died.

He shook his head, took a deep breath, and his consciousness entered the jade again, and as his mind changed, the doppelganger who had fallen to the ground and died stood up again.

After thinking about it, he realized that he was not proficient in the previous part of the qi, so he simply let the physical state of the clone return to the moment when he had not started cultivating before. ,

The second time he started from the beginning, this time he paid special attention to the control of the qi, however, according to the formula, he needed to start another four qi, not only the first four qis also needed to run through the meridians repeatedly, but the last four qis could not relax, and after persisting for almost half an hour, his doppelganger finally vomited blood again and died......

Zhang Yan raised his eyebrows slightly, calmed down, threw away all distracting thoughts, and once again let the Yuzhong clone sit up again.

Picking up the eight qi machines, he carefully controlled them, but it didn't take long for his clones to fall down again and again.

Little did he know, however, that this was just the beginning of the grind.

The fourth time, the qi machine was obviously completely in his dispatch, but suddenly he lost control inexplicably and ran away indiscriminately, causing him to die of anger.

The fifth time, when the two qi machines fused, because one in front of the other and one in the back, he could not converge at the same time, and he split his chest and died.

The sixth time, when the qi veins were restricted, due to the turbidity of the qi machine, he was entangled outside the acupuncture points for a while, and his lungs broke and died.

7th ......

Repeated failures, repeated attempts.

The more Zhang Yan practiced, the more frightened he became, no wonder Shi Shoujing said that there were many divergent paths in this Taoist book at that time, but the complexity of the qi machine walking in this meridian was far beyond his imagination, and the qi of Yuan Zhen either stayed or stayed, or pierced or walked, or channeled or paused, sometimes rotating and rising, sometimes slowly descending, and almost none of the three hundred and sixty-five acupoints on the body were not taken into account.

The most annoying thing is that you know how the qi machine walks in the meridians, but you just can't control them, especially in the back, you have to control one hundred and eight qi machines to shuttle back and forth in the meridians at a time, as long as there is a trace of deviation in the qi machine, it will lead to the loss of previous efforts, and the death of the doppelganger will become more and more ugly.

The Xuanmen Exercises have a lot of artistic conception and are lightly controlled, but this Taoist book is to the extreme of following the meridians, and it seems that he wants to integrate all the ways of practicing qi in one place.

Just after practicing the first method, he has tried no less than 150 times the death methods of various meridian damage, retrograde true qi, and back-devouring the internal organs, so you can imagine how perverted this method is.

Zhang Yan shook his head, there are almost no shortcuts to such distractions, and he can only rely on repeated attempts to brush up his proficiency.

Besides, since every time he dies is a real experience, he can't help but secretly laugh at himself, estimating that after he finishes practicing this Dao technique, he will be able to have master-level achievements in going mad.

He believed that those monks who had never come into contact with this book would have died on the spot if they had not been supported by the teacher.

No wonder Luo Xiao said that this book is easy to be jealous of the sky, if anyone does not rely on any external objects, he can practice this book with his own talent and understanding alone, not only God will not let him go, if he can, Zhang Yan also wants to throw a thunderbolt to kill this person.

It took him more than a month to hone the control of the qi machine, which was almost equivalent to ten months in the jade for the doppelganger, and only then could he get a thorough understanding of the operation of the entire set of qi machines.

At this point, he didn't know how many times his doppelganger had died.

Fortunately, he has a strong will, and if he is replaced, he may go crazy in the boring operation of the qi engine.

But on the other hand, Zhang Yan has not gained nothing in this practice, at least this book covers almost all the luck methods and techniques on the current cultivation path, I believe that at this moment, there are almost no people in the same path who can compare with him in the level of qi control.

It's just that in the past month or so, Luo Xiao in Baoding has not moved, is it really dead?

Zhang Yan stood up and was about to go to see what was going on, but suddenly heard a voice ringing in his ear, "Zhang Yanke came out to speak." ”

He couldn't help but walk out of the cave in two steps, but saw a handsome white-clothed monk standing out of thin air in front of the plank road.

Ning Chongxuan!

Zhang Yan arched his hand calmly and said, "Senior Brother Ning." ”

He quickly calculated in his mind, he didn't know why Ning Chongxuan came here to look for him, could it be that Luo Xiao's matter was discovered by him?

It can't be, if this is the case, the other party would have rushed in a long time ago.

Ning Chongxuan glanced at him, suddenly stepped forward and put his arm on the shoulder, and said, "It's inconvenient to talk here, come with me." ”

Zhang Yan only felt a flower in front of him, and when he saw the surrounding scenery clearly, he had already appeared at the top of a lonely peak, and under his feet was an abyss, his body only shook slightly, and he adjusted from the initial discomfort and stood firm again.

Ning Chongxuan nodded and praised: "Very good, cultivators should abandon external objects, only the true self, you need to know that all obstacles are born from the heart, and if the heart is unstable, then the god will not be born." ”

His expression now is very different from when he left that day, it seems that there is still a look of appreciation in his eyes, Zhang Yan doesn't know what he is doing.

"I have searched back and forth in this mountain for two months, but I still have not found the trace of the snake demon, I think that I am either seriously injured and died, or hidden somewhere, but in the near future I will return to the mountain gate, no time to take care of this officer, and you are the only one in this peak to cultivate, I am gone, maybe it will come out to harm you, because I gave you a thing, it will definitely save your life. ”

Ning Chongxuan pointed with his hand, and a bit of jade light flew into Zhang Yan's sleeve, and in a hurry, he couldn't see what it was.

"You go, remember to uphold your heart, if he is destined one day, I will introduce you to worship an immortal master. ”

Ning Chongxuan stretched out his hand and pushed, Zhang Yan's body shook slightly, he didn't feel anything, and when he looked up, he had returned to the foot of Wangxing Peak.

It's just that he didn't know at the moment that not long after he was taken away by Ning Chongxuan, a figure came to the door of his cave with a probe of his brain, and then looked inside a few times, his face suddenly showed joy, and he rushed in with an arrow.
