Chapter 20: The Incomplete Exercises
The space behind the door was a quaint room, which was mostly empty, with three ordinary stone platforms in the center of the room, each with a slowly rotating cluster of light on top of it.
Came to the first stone platform on the left, a few lines of words were engraved on the upper side of the stone platform, Lin Jin looked at it in turn, and each stone platform had an explanation of the exercises in the light group.
From left to right are different exercises, the first one on the left is about the basic exercises of swordsmanship, and the middle one is about the basic exercises of runes.
The one on the right is about the basic exercises for a solid foundation, but the exercises for a solid foundation have been indicated, and the second half of the exercises are missing!
Because the stone platform is engraved with a reminder text that can only be selected once, Lin Jin is a little unsure of which one to choose.
Lin Jin touched his nose and said to himself: "According to the memories I have left, it seems that the majority of cultivators have entered the Dao with swords, and there is no shortage of peerless masters. But if that's the case, it's competitive and there's not a lot of room for development, no. ”
"Not to mention the runes, you must have a good talent to have higher achievements, especially if you need a large number of spirit stones as a foundation, you can go further on this road. ”
The first two were not good, Lin Jin had to come to the stone platform on the right again, this was his last choice, the practice of stabilizing the foundation!
It stands to reason that this exercise is indeed suitable for the current Lin Jin, although Lin Jin's original body is not a peerless physique, but at least it belongs to a relatively excellent physique.
However, he knew that the current physique of this body was extremely fragile, so this solid foundation exercise was very suitable for him, but it was unfortunate that this exercise was incomplete!
Now Lin Jin has to make a good choice, whether to choose the exercises that suit him but are incomplete, or to retreat to the next best thing and choose the swordsmanship or rune that is more inappropriate for him.
After a short period of consideration, Lin Jin felt that it was better to choose the one that suited him, even if there were deficiencies, if he was disabled, he would see if he could find them all in the future.
Lin Jin exhaled, put his hand into the light cluster on the right and grabbed it, and then a palm-sized jade piece was taken out of the light cluster by Lin Jin.
"What kind of exercises are there on this thing?" Lin Jin wondered, playing with the jade piece in his hand, and returned to the main hall with questions.
The old man finally waited for Lin Jin to come out in the main hall, and then asked, "Boy, what exercises did you choose?" Is it swordsmanship or talismans?"
Lin Jin shook the jade piece in his hand and said, "No, it's an exercise to stabilize the foundation." ”
When the old man heard this, he was immediately dumbfounded, looked at Lin Jin like a monster, and said for a long time: "Boy, your brain is broken, right?
"Don't you also say that there is no such thing as chicken ribs? Now how can you say that this solid foundation exercise is chicken ribs?"
"You...... That's a practice that's limited to anything other than this basic one!"
Sighing, the old man continued: "The disciples who have always been recruited only have the strength to enter the third door, if they don't choose the swordsmanship technique or the rune technique, except for that one person......"
Lin Jin's heart moved, and he asked, "That person?"
The old man seemed to be caught in a memory.
"I have been a steward in the Yuelong Pavilion for nearly a hundred years, although I am not an important person in the Liyun Pavilion, but as long as I have been to the disciples of the Yuelong Pavilion, I know something, especially the person eighty years ago, he also chose the same exercises as you, so I have always been impressed. ”
"What happened later?" Lin Jin was interested and asked.
"Later, his cultivation miraculously improved by leaps and bounds, but soon after he entered the Guquan Immortal Sect with the brilliant results of reaching the early stage of the Karma Cutting Realm in just ten years, he mysteriously disappeared. ”
Lin Jin frowned and asked, "Has he disappeared?"
The old man smiled bitterly: "How is it possible, if you become an immortal, at least tens of thousands of years or even endless lifespan, after he disappeared, the Guquan Immortal Sect spread the rumor, saying that his cultivation of the evil law led to the rapid improvement of his cultivation, and then because of improper cultivation, he died in some unknown place." ”
Lin Jin snorted coldly: "I think this matter is that the sect called the Guquan Immortal Sect is shirking its responsibility." ”
"Boy, you are looking for death, Liyun Pavilion is a subsidiary sect of the Guquan Immortal Sect, you dare to say such a big rebellious thing?"
The old man was startled, looked left and right, and said nervously.
"Is it that serious? Could it be that the Guquan Immortal Sect is a first-level sect?"
"It's not just a first-level sect! Guquan Immortal Sect is one of the three pillar sects in Dongyue!"
Seeing Lin Jin nodding, the old man stroked his beard and said, "Actually, I also felt that something was wrong back then, and I also inquired with some elders in the pavilion, but I couldn't know the real reason. ”
Lin Jin looked at the jade piece in his hand and asked, "But this exercise is incomplete, that person shouldn't rely on this incomplete exercise to improve by leaps and bounds, right?"
The old man was very sure that it was this kind of exercise, and immediately told Lin Jin the origin of this solid foundation exercise.
It turned out that one hundred and fifty years ago from Liyun Pavilion, a Supreme Elder who had been missing for many years suddenly returned to Liyun Pavilion.
But at that time, the Supreme Elder was crazy, as if he was stimulated, sometimes normal and sometimes crazy, and even sometimes attacked some elders, but fortunately, the situation was not too bad, and there were no casualties.
Finally, one day, the Supreme Elder found the Pavilion Master, gave the Pavilion Master the incomplete exercise, and asked the Pavilion Master to turn it into one of the exercise options for new disciples to get started, and then left Liyun Pavilion and never returned.
After that, this incomplete exercise became one of the exercises behind the third door, but because of the incomplete exercises, this exercise has always been unattended.
It wasn't until 80 years ago that people chose this solid foundation exercise, the person the old man said.
"How about it? Zhi Lu said, why did I say that you have a problem with your brain, right? Although this exercise may be very powerful, it is possible to find the remaining part. ”
"Then how to use this jade piece?"
The old man shook his head helplessly, and said: "No knowledge is no knowledge, this is called jade slip, and the usage is that as long as you unite your mind and mind and sink your mind into the jade slip, you can get the content inside." ”
"I see, there is no such thing in the Heavenly Palace, it's unusual. Muttered a few times, Lin Jin put it away.
"That's nothing, I'm gone. ”
The old man shouted from behind, "Boy, are you really planning to practice that exercise?"
Lin Jin raised his hand and waved the jade slip in the air in affirmation.
"Then you remember to go to the Dan Pavilion every month to get a marrow cleansing pill, and ah, your residence is on the mountain peak next to it. ”
Walking on the stone steps outside the Yuelong Pavilion, Lin Jin looked at the mountains in the distance and clenched the jade slip in his hand.
Practice!
Coming to the mountain peak that the old man said, the rows of houses on the peaks, and the rows of stone caves made Lin Jin a little stunned, it turned out that this was the life of a cultivator in the Tianshu Continent.
When I cultivated the Tao by myself, I only knew that I was cultivating hard, so how could there be so many people to accompany me in cultivating?
Lin Jin walked to the only medium-sized palace on the mountain, and three big characters were written on the plaque: Return to the Heart Palace.
didn't stay too long, and when he walked into the Guixin Palace, Lin Jin saw a middle-aged man with fat weight sleeping on the stone table in the corner, snoring like thunder, and the entire hall was an echo.
Lin Jin rubbed his ears, walked to the middle-aged fat man and knocked on the stone table, the middle-aged fat man's body shook, and his round body slipped off the chair.
"Oh my god, who scared me? didn't you see me sleeping?" said the middle-aged fat man angrily.
Lin Jin hurriedly helped him up and said, "I'm sorry, senior, I'm here to get my residency qualification." ”
The middle-aged fat man rubbed his fat ass and said, "Then you won't accidentally wake me up? Say, which one are you going to choose?"
"What??" Lin Jin was a little confused.
The middle-aged fat man said, "Are you new here? Do you want me to talk to you in detail? Oh, this work is so tiring!"
"First, as long as you pay a high-grade spirit stone, you can specify where to build a gorgeous residence, and it is a special person in the pavilion to help you build it. ”
"The second type, pay a medium-grade spirit stone and receive an ordinary residence. ”
"As for the third type, if you pay a low-grade spirit stone, you are eligible to dig a cave dwelling in the vacant space on the mountain. Take your pick!"
Lin Jin was speechless after hearing this, he had just arrived, how could he have any spirit stones? But if he dug a cave by himself, it would be time-consuming and laborious, and the environment would be slightly worse.
Touching his nose, Lin Jin thought of a person.
"Senior, I am a disciple who was personally approved by the Pavilion Master yesterday, do I also have to hand over the spirit stone?"
"What? are you the disciple that the Pavilion Master commanded?"
There's a play!
Lin Jin nodded helplessly, but saw that the middle-aged fat man immediately changed his attitude.
went to the stone cabinet at the back to look for it, and after a while, he took out a jade slip engraved with numbers and gave it to Lin Jin: "Come on, come on, give, room 3009." ”
After taking the jade slip, Lin Jin was about to leave, but was stopped by the middle-aged fat man.
"Here, little brother, there are some spirit stones in this storage bag, you can use them. ”
Eyelids jumped, I thought it was good to have a free ordinary residence, who thought that this fat man still wanted to bribe himself, it seems that this fat man thinks that he has something to do with the pavilion master.
"Thank you. ”
"No, no, ha, ha, it should be ......"
Lin Jin took the storage bag in the hands of the middle-aged fat man and asked, "Then why is it called the Guixin Palace?"
"Because after becoming a disciple of Xiuzhen, you basically can't return to your worldly home in the mortal world, unless you go outside to practice, and there is no time for cultivation, maybe you will close the threshold for a few times and decades will pass, and your family in the mortal world will have already returned to heaven, and calling the Guixin Hall is to encourage the disciples to gather their minds and enter the Tao wholeheartedly. ”
Lin Jin nodded thoughtfully, and took the jade slip out of the Guixin Palace.
The middle-aged fat man watched Lin Jin leave, suddenly remembered something, and said to himself: "What does this kid have to do with the pavilion master? Nephew and son ......"
