Volume 2: The Demonic World Chapter 438: Introduction
"Brother, your compass is not broken. It is functioning perfectly ..."
At the construction building, an inner sect disciple of Shura Jingyi who was called up by Luo Changliu at night explained the situation to Luo Changliu with a helpless look on his face.
Luo Changliu was a little bit unconvinced, so he took the compass and tested it again and again, and finally confirmed that it was not broken.
But if the compass is not broken, some things are hard to say.
After sending the inner disciple away, Luo Changliu fell into deep thought.
At that time, the aura of Lin Qianxing measured by the compass had reached the level of a grandmaster.
It is already comparable to those supreme elders.
Such a master hid in the Wujing Building of the Yunlong Sect to guard the scriptures.
Is there any shocking conspiracy here?
Thinking of this, Luo Changliu subconsciously had the idea of drawing a line between himself and Lin Qianxing.
But when he thought about it carefully, he felt something was wrong.
If there really was some shocking conspiracy, there was no reason for Lin Qianxing to go with him to deal with the strange beast, and it was impossible for her to show her aura to him without concealment, right?
The method of concealing one's own aura is not only common, but also should not be difficult to learn for such a master.
There are too many contradictions. As Luo Changliu thought about them, his brain seemed to be freezing.
In the end, Luo Changliu decided to wait until tomorrow to distribute the reward for the mission to Lin Qianxing before testing Lin Qianxing's situation.
The next day.
Luo Changliu came to the Wujing Building and handed Lin Qianxing a fifty-liang silver note while asking, "Junior brother, tell me honestly, how high is your cultivation?"
Lin Qianxing didn't care about Luo Changliu's fifty-liang silver note, but he still accepted it.
Hearing Luo Changliu's question, he casually said, "Grandmaster."
"What about the spiritual master's cultivation?" Luo Changliu asked.
"The realm of spiritual manifestation." Lin Qianxing said.
Now, it is not too difficult for him to keep his soul out of his body for a period of time. He can be said to have barely reached the realm of spiritual manifestation.
Luo Changliu nodded secretly, and then he seemed to have discovered something and asked, "Do you still have internal training?"
"Ningxuan." Lin Qianxing nodded.
After hearing Lin Qianxing's answer, Luo Changliu's doubts were explained.
This is an absolute genius, comparable to a sect's true disciple.
You know, no matter it is the Grandmaster realm of external training, the Condensation Realm of internal training, or the Spiritual Manifestation Realm of the spiritual master, at Lin Qianxing's age, to reach any one of them is an absolute genius.
Lin Qianxing practiced the three methods together and reached a high level. The combined strength of their aura was comparable to that of a grandmaster.
What kind of talent is this ?
It is such a waste to let him stay in this Wujing Building.
"Junior brother, you are truly a talented person." Luo Changliu sighed, and then said, "It is really unfair for you to take care of the scriptures."
Lin Qianxing saw the hidden meaning behind Luo Changliu's words and said, "Although it is a bit boring, it is not unfair to me."
"Junior brother has an extraordinary character. I am far from being as good as him. However, with your cultivation level, perhaps he can show his talents elsewhere." Luo Changliu said.
"Brother, what do you mean?" Lin Qianxing asked.
"My master is Elder Mu Yong of the Dharma Hall. If you are willing, I would like to recommend you to him and have you come to our Dharma Hall to practice." Luo Changliu said, "Besides the required contribution tasks every month, you don't need to do anything else. In addition, you will be provided with high-quality medicinal food and a hundred taels of silver."
This treatment is much better than that in Wujing Building.
Of course, Qian Lin Qianxing didn’t care. What he really cared about were those so-called contribution tasks.
Judging from the previous cooperation with Luo Changliu to deal with strange beasts, it seems that the Yunlong Sect also has the part-time job of eliminating strange beasts?
If he goes to the Palace of Law, will he have more opportunities to come into contact with strange creatures?
"Do you often come into contact with strange beasts?" Lin Qianxing asked.
Hearing this, Luo Changliu was stunned.
He hadn't thought of that.
From Lin Qianxing's appearance, it's obvious that he likes a quiet and peaceful life, otherwise he wouldn't be able to stay in the Wujing Building without complaining despite his cultivation level.
Although the treatment in the Palm of Law Hall is good, they often have to deal with strange beasts and weird creatures, and disciples will be killed or injured from time to time.
Although most of the casualties were inner and outer disciples, the core disciples were not necessarily completely free from risk.
Although he really wanted to tell a few lies to deceive Lin Qianxing, Luo Changliu knew that this was not a long-term solution.
"The Palm of Law Hall does need to frequently come into contact with strange beasts and other beings, but basically their lives will not be endangered. You can rest assured about this, Junior Brother..." Luo Changliu said dryly.
This is more like intimidation than persuasion.
He sighed in his heart, thinking that this persuasion would most likely fail.
"Then I'll trouble you, senior brother." Lin Qianxing said.
"I understand. Junior brother, you don't have to blame yourself for this..." Luo Changliu said halfway when he suddenly felt something was wrong. He asked, "Junior brother, what do you mean by this?"
"I hope you can say a few good words in front of Elder Mu Yong. Take this money and buy some tea to moisten your tongue." Lin Qianxing said.
As he said this, he returned the silver note that Luo Changliu had given him.
"No need for that. My junior brother and I hit it off right away. It's my honor to introduce you to me. I'm so happy!" Luo Changliu declined with a look of joy on his face.
Seeing this, Lin Qianxing did not force it, but just said: "Junior brother will remember your kindness."
This is exactly what Luo Changliu wants.
Compared to gold and silver which can be quantified, favors are the most valuable.
And the favor of a genius like Lin Qianxing is even more precious.
In the future, Lin Qianxing will be very successful, and any of his words may be worth far more than these dozens or hundreds of taels of silver. Why should he be so short-sighted?
Afterwards, Lin Qianxing and Luo Changliu exchanged greetings and then parted ways.
Lin Qianxing returned to the Wujing Building and saw Min Pu sitting cross-legged at the stone table in a daze.
He is already very old, and has some injuries from his youth. Now his energy and blood are declining, and it is unknown how long he can live.
After Lin Qianxing paid his respects to Min Pu, he planned to bypass him and go back to practice.
But just as he passed by him, Lin Qianxing noticed Min Pu's hair.
Min Pu's hair was very sparse, and even the few strands he had were gray, dry and dull. But at this moment, Lin Qianxing saw that there were some short, black hair tips on the surface of Min Pu's scalp.
After discovering this, when he looked at Min Pu again, he discovered that he was not just in a daze. His posture blended into the world, and vigorous vitality was about to surge out of his almost dead body.
He was actually about to break through to the Grand Master level.
And judging from the current signs, he is already on the verge of a breakthrough.
Once successful, the Grand Master will have a lifespan of at least 500 years, and it will not be a problem for Min Pu to live another 300 years.
Lin Qianxing had a subtle expression. The profession of librarian was indeed full of hidden talents.
Shaking his head slightly, Lin Qianxing walked into his room and began to practice.
His current practice is divided into three parts. The main one is to visualize the pictures to increase the spirit, the other is to practice external martial arts to increase the physical strength, and the last one is to practice the internal martial arts "Longevity Exercise".
There is not much to say about the visualization album. He visualized every night until dawn.
Now that he has extraordinary talent, meditation every night can increase his spirit by at least three to five points.
The imprint of Wukong in the sea of consciousness became more and more condensed.
Then comes the practice of martial arts.
He has already practiced "The Art of Body Refining" to perfection, and only lacks the final divine body, so Lin Qianxing is now practicing other external martial arts that he collected in this Wujing Building.
Of course, Lin Qianxing would not practice martial arts that have serious side effects.
He basically looked for martial arts whose side effects could offset each other, or martial arts whose side effects he could withstand.
What he is mainly practicing now is "Tiger Evil Fist" and "Thunder Sound Technique".
The side effect of "Tiger Evil Fist" is that after practicing it, tiger evil energy will accumulate in the body. This evil energy will damage the lungs and greatly shorten the life of the practitioner.
The "Thunder Sound Jue" is a method of sound attack to strengthen the lungs. A side effect is that after practicing it, the thunder sound will continue to accumulate in the lungs. One must roar with all one's strength three times a day to release the thunder sound, otherwise the accumulated thunder sound will destroy the lungs.
Lin Qianxing had heard disciples of the Yunlong Sect yelling for no reason from time to time before, which showed that there were quite a few disciples practicing this martial art.
Both martial arts have the effect of strengthening the body. Lin Qianxing practices them regularly, which greatly strengthens his body.
The last step is internal martial arts training.
Ever since the condensation of the cyclones, the seven hundred and twenty cyclones in his body have automatically connected to that strange space, constantly absorbing energy and transforming it into longevity internal energy. He doesn't even need to actively practice the exercises as he is still cultivating.
Lin Qianxing himself estimated that within three to five months at most, he would be able to step into the Jindan stage.
It is not an ordinary Jindan realm, but a Jindan realm where seven hundred and twenty acupoints form elixirs at the same time.
The only difference between internal martial arts and external martial arts is that, generally speaking, the physical body of the internal martial artist will be weaker in the early stages.
But with the nourishment of internal energy, it won’t be that bad.
Moreover, his internal energy enveloped his entire body, making it difficult for swords and spears to penetrate. However, he could use his internal energy to attach weapons and easily break through the physical defenses of martial artists.
It is for this reason that martial artists who practice internal martial arts look down on martial artists who practice external martial arts, and even contemptuously call them "strongmen".
Lin Qianxing felt that when he formed the elixir, his strength might be comparable to that of a Half-Step Wen Dao.
At least the energy level won’t be too different.
Time passed, and it was two days later.
Luo Changliu found Lin Qianxing again and said that the matter had been settled for him, and now all he had to do was to meet Elder Mu Yong, who was in charge of the Dharma Hall.
Lin Qianxing expressed his gratitude to Luo Changliu, and then followed Luo Changliu to meet Elder Mu Yong.
The man was wearing a light blue suit, looked to be about forty years old, and had an extraordinary demeanor.
It is said that his cultivation has reached the peak of the Grandmaster level, and he is expected to break through to the Grand Grandmaster level within thirty years.
"I heard that not only have you reached the Grandmaster level in external training, but you have also reached the level of Condensation and Rotation in internal training. You also have the talent of a spiritual master and have reached the level of Spirit Manifestation?" Mu Yong asked Lin Qianxing directly.
As an elder of a hall, he doesn't have that much free time.
If Luo Changliu hadn't praised Lin Qianxing so highly, he really wouldn't have come in person to meet and test Lin Qianxing.
"I dare not deceive the elder, that's true." Lin Qianxing said.
Mu Yong looked at Lin Qianxing quietly, waved his hand and said, "Let me have a look, don't be afraid of hurting me."
Hearing this, Lin Qianxing nodded and said, "Then I will show you my ugliness."
After saying that, Lin Qianxing's whole body flashed with jade light and he punched towards Mu Yong.
