Chapter 19: Drawbacks
The sun is already in the west, and the afterglow of the setting sun exudes the residual heat of zuihou. Chu Jun sat cross-legged on the stone platform in the courtyard, and the orange-red sunlight sprinkled on his body through the Tunling wood, as if it was coated with a faint flame. At this time, if someone approached Chu Jun within two meters, they would definitely feel that the temperature around them was obviously much higher.
Chu Jun is following the first layer of the Burning Sun Technique, absorbing the essence of sunlight through his temples. The hot breath flowed through the Ren vein into the sea of qi, and then flowed through the left leg until the Yongquan acupoint at the bottom of the left foot was stored. Chu Jun had been cultivating the Burning Sun Technique for nearly two months, and the Burning Sun Essence of the Yongquan Acupoint on the sole of his left foot had gradually formed a line, and it was estimated that it would take another month or two to form a new Yang Technique, and by that time, the first layer of the Burning Sun Technique would be considered to have been cultivated.
Chu Jun slowly retracted his breath, preparing to end his cultivation, at this moment, his right foot suddenly became cold, his left foot was unbearably hot, the dantian seemed to have been cut fiercely, and Chu Jun exhaled in pain, rolled down from the stone platform, the whole person curled into a ball, his face was as pale as paper, and beads of sweat the size of beans slid down.
The woman of light and shadow came out from Chu Jun's eyebrows, quietly observing Chu Jun who was dying of pain on the ground, looking indifferent. Chu Jun clenched his teeth, endured the inhuman pain, and it took several cups of tea to ease up, and his body was motionless on the ground, his whole body was soaked with sweat, and he was panting for air.
"What do you think?" asked the Shadow Woman, her voice dry and cold, without the slightest mood swing.
Chu Jun closed his eyes and pursed his lips, as if he hadn't heard the words of the light and shadow woman. The woman of light and shadow waited for a while before she said coldly: "If you don't say it, I can't help you!"
Chu Jun opened his eyes and looked at the graceful figure shrouded in the moonlight, and said, "I don't know if I should believe your words or not!"
The woman of light and shadow said lightly: "Now you can only choose to believe!"
Chu Jun smiled bitterly, feeling like he was on a thief ship, and said helplessly: "First the right foot was cold and unconscious, and then the left foot was uncomfortably hot, and then the dantian was cut by a knife, which was much more serious than the first time!"
The light and shadow woman pondered for a while, and said lightly: "It's okay, continue to cultivate, and wait until you cultivate the power of the new yang!"
A burst of anger rose in Chu Jun's heart, and he said loudly and angrily: "The Burning Sun Technique and the Burning Moon Technique are fundamentally two mutually exclusive exercises, and you let me practice at the same time is simply uneasy and kind, Lao Tzu will not practice anymore!"
The woman of light and shadow trembled obviously, and only after a while did she say in a stern tone: "Really don't practice?"
Chu Jun got up from the ground and said angrily: "If you continue to practice, sooner or later, you will take your life, you have to practice yourself!"
The woman of light and shadow suddenly sneered and said, "Since you don't want to practice, then forget it, I'm too lazy to teach!"
Chu Jun said in a deep voice: "Why don't you practice yourself?"
"How do you know that I haven't practiced myself?" said the Light and Shadow Woman coldly.
Chu Jun was speechless, and only said after a while: "Don't treat me as a fool, you are cultivating the Burning Moon Technique, and you have not cultivated the Burning Sun Technique at all, but you just let me practice two exercises with opposite attributes at the same time, what is your intention?"
The woman of light and shadow said lightly: "It's easy for me to kill you, and I still need to hurt you like this?"
Chu Jun thought for a moment that this was indeed the case, and his momentum couldn't help but weaken, and asked, "Then you give me an explanation!"
"Hmph, explain what, do you like to practice!" The woman of light and shadow turned into a ball of light and drilled back into Chu Jun's divine sea.
Chu Jun clenched his fists helplessly, and said secretly: "I will practice the first layer of the Burning Sun Technique, and see if this will happen after the power of the new yang and the power of the new moon reach a balance, if it is still like this, I will not practice anymore!"
Just now he was able to use the power of the crescent moon to slash with the sword, and it was really reluctant for Chu Jun to give up and not practice.
The sunset finally sank, Chu Jun looked up at the gradually darkening sky, and suddenly found that a group of black dots were flying from the sky, there was a slight tremor on the ground, and a low roar could be faintly heard, as if thousands of troops were moving together.
Chu Jun's face changed, and he said secretly: "Could it be that the beast tide has come to the Five Thunder City?"
Lei Yin Mountain is located in the center of the Five Thunder City, and the closest side to the outer city is also five miles away, and the vibration can be clearly felt on the mountain, which shows that the number of beasts is so large that it is amazing. Chu Jun suddenly woke up and Zhao Yu was assisting in the defense on the wall of Five Thunder City at the moment, and he couldn't help but worry and couldn't sit still.
At this moment, a screaming alarm sounded suddenly, and the entire Thundersound Mountain boiled. Chu Jun looked up awe-inspiringly, only to see more than a dozen fierce vulture beasts rushing towards Leiyin Mountain with a fierce momentum, and the huge shadow was like a rolling black cloud hanging into the sky, and the sound was quite terrifying.
"Bold and guilty, dare to violate my mountain gate!" A majestic voice rolled from the top of the mountain, and I saw a purple-robed old man rushing into the sky with a sword, murderously rushing towards the beasts.
Zila!
A miserable white lightning flashed, and the first two fierce beasts were killed alive, and blood was sprayed miserably. Seeing this, the vultures in the back screamed and turned their heads and fled, the old man in the purple robe descended the mountain like a fierce tiger, rushed into the herd of beasts and slashed and slashed, the long sword flew over, the wind and thunder rolled, killing and injuring many vultures in an instant, and the rest fled in panic.
Chu Jun saw his blood boiling, and said secretly: "This is the power of the Thunder Divine Sword!"
The purple-robed old man killed the attacking beast, and as soon as the flying sword was collected, it was like a storm of snow, and disappeared on the top of the thunder sound mountain in the blink of an eye.
Chu Jun's excitement calmed down for a long time, put on the first-grade defensive vest given by the cheap master, took the green steel flying sword and ran down the mountain. Chu Jun planned to go to the head of the Five Thunder City to see the spectacular scene of the Ten Thousand Beasts attacking the city.
Chu Jun didn't use the flying mount, but threw off his stride and ran down the mountain, because there were flying spirit beasts in the sky, and if he rode the mount, he was afraid that it would attract their attacks. As he passed through a small forest at the foot of the mountain, there was a sudden cry of terror, followed by the sound of wings fluttering. Chu Jun hurriedly rushed into the woods, just in time to see a golden-eyed giant eagle grabbing a little girl and soaring into the air.
"Daddy, help me!" the little girl cried out as she struggled and writhed desperately.
The little girl was very thin, dressed in a plaid skirt, with yellow hair, and it was the little one named Little Girl.
Chu Jun was taken aback, how could a spirit beast sneak under Leiyin Mountain, judging from that momentum, its strength was the smallest and there was also a second-level intermediate level. didn't have time to think about it, Chu Jun patted the ring on his waist, and the gray feather crane appeared out of thin air. Chu Junfei got on the gray feather crane and shouted: "Little gray, catch up!"
The gray feather crane showed a look of horror in his eyes, and he reluctantly soared into the air under Chu Jun's urging. When the golden-eyed giant eagle saw that a human was chasing after him on a gray feather crane, its sharp eyes showed a look of mockery, and it actually pounced on Chu Jun, obviously not taking this weak human cultivator in his eyes.
"Daddy, help me!" the little girl's little face turned white with fright, her black grape-like eyes filled with tears, and she waved her thin little hands to try to scratch the claws of the golden-eyed eagle.
"Beast, let go of that girl!" Chu Jun shouted violently and pulled out the green steel flying sword in his hand.
A gust of wind swooped in, and the golden-eyed giant eagle flew fiercely overhead, and Chu Jun's mount was so frightened that its wings weakened, and it fell with a spinning zixiangxia.
As soon as the claws of the golden-eyed giant eagle were loosened, the little girl fell down, Chu Jun didn't think much about it, and hurriedly reached out to catch it. The mockery in the eyes of the golden-eyed giant eagle became even stronger, and Li Xiao swooped down quickly, and the incomparably hard and sharp giant claws grabbed Chu Jun fiercely.
The golden-eyed giant eagle was a second-level upper-level spirit beast, and it could definitely grasp Chu Jun and Xiao Xiao to pieces with one grasp. Before the claws arrived, the wind brought by the wings of the golden-eyed giant eagle swept Chu Jun almost couldn't even open his eyes, and his cheeks were hot and painful.
Chu Jun held the little girl in his left hand, and the crescent moon divine power spit out, and the silver light of the green steel flying sword in his hand flowed, like a layer of frost, and the cold was awe-inspiring.
While!
With a clear sound, the green steel flying sword in Chu Jun's hand was grabbed and flew out by the claws of the golden-eyed giant eagle, and his five fingers were numb. The golden-eyed giant eagle screamed, and its claws retracted, obviously being slashed by Chu Jun's sword.
The golden-eyed giant eagle was completely enraged, and swooped down again, its long beak with a barbed hook pecked at Chu Jun's head as fast as lightning. Chu Jun thought that he would definitely die this time, but suddenly the silver light at the center of his eyebrows burst out, and the golden-eyed giant eagle screamed in horror, turned around and fled quickly.
As soon as the golden-eyed eagle left, the gray feather crane regained its courage, fluttered its wings vigorously, stopped the downward trend, and slowly landed on the ground.
"I haven't learned a few points, and I'm still stupid and nosy!" The dry and cold voice of the light and shadow woman sounded in her head.
At this time, a group of patrol disciples rushed over with shouts, and when they saw that Chu Jun and the two were safe and sound, they inquired about the situation, and after telling Chu Jun to pay attention to safety, they continued to patrol.
"Xiexie!" said the little girl, raising her little face.
Although this little creature is very thin and has yellow hair, his skin is surprisingly white and tender, there is a small dimple on the left side of his face, and there is a little notable rouge mole in the center of his eyebrows.
Chu Jun picked up the little girl's body and found that only the clothes on her back were torn, and there was no damage on her body, so he relieved himself and asked, "Xiaoxiao, why did you run down the mountain alone?"
Xiao Xiao drooped his little head and said, "Find Daddy!"
Chu Jun frowned and said, "Where did your father go?"
Xiaoxiao looked up at Chu Jun, and his little face was full of worry: "I didn't return from hunting, I'm afraid!"
This little guy is very short-spoken, but she can be understood!
Chu Jun chuckled in his heart and comforted: "Your father will be fine, don't be afraid, uncle will take you home and wait for him!"
The little guy shook his head stubbornly: "Go find it!"
Chu Jun had a little headache, and said patiently: "You go home first and wait, uncle will help you get your father back, it's very dangerous for you to run out like this, you will be worried if your father doesn't see you when he comes back!"
The little guy blinked and hesitated before saying, "Go home!"
Chu Jun sighed, retrieved the Qinggang Flying Sword, picked up the little guy and returned to the mountain.
Like most of the outer disciples, Tieshi's residence was a small wooden hut surrounded by a fence outside, and the furnishings in the house were quite simple!
"Stay obediently in the house, don't run around, uncle, I'll find you daddy back!" Chu Jun said to the little guy.
The little guy sat on the edge of the bed and nodded, "Wait!"
Chu Jun left the cabin, his face immediately sank, if Tie Shi didn't have time to go out of the city to hunt and didn't have time to rush back to the city, I'm afraid it would be quite dangerous.
