Chapter Ten: Phantom of the Phantom(1/2)
Qingyou Peak, the small courtyard where Ling Yun is.
"Tian'er, you're back. Where did you catch the rabbit?" When Ling Tian came back, Ling Yun was chatting with Hu Mei in the yard. Ling Yun saw Ling Tian's embarrassment and knew that he was deflated, and he was smiling all over his face.
meaning.
Ling Tian blushed and said sheepishly: "Father, I didn't catch the rabbit."
Ling Tian's voice was as light as a gnat. Even Ling Yun could only hear it when he was concentrating. It seemed that Ling Tian was really embarrassed and ashamed.
"Haha!" Ling Yun couldn't help but laugh and said: "I asked you to follow your mother out. How come your mother came back on her own? I thought you could catch her after your mother taught you the "Phantom God's Shadow Body Technique"
Where’s the rabbit?”
"What? What? "Phantom God's Body Technique"? Mother didn't teach me." Ling Tian's face was full of confusion, and the look in his foxy eyes made him even more confused.
"Zhizhi!" Hu Mei cried innocently.
"Your mother said you asked her to come back. You were so resolute that she didn't even have time to teach you." Ling Yun said leisurely, but a smile appeared on his face.
Thinking of Hu Mei's hesitation before leaving, Ling Tian couldn't help but smile bitterly. He thought his mother was very kind to him, but he didn't expect that Hu Mei would learn to do what his father did and deliberately whet his appetite. Thinking of this, Ling Tian looked at Hu Mei.
Even more resentful.
The foxy look became even more innocent, and she pursed her lips towards Ling Yun. In that case, how could Ling Tian not understand that Ling Yun was the instigator behind the scenes? Thinking of this, Ling Tian even smiled bitterly.
"Where is the "Phantom God's Shadow Body Technique"? Mother, when will you teach me?" Ling Tian patted his head and then thought of the movement technique his father had just mentioned. Looking at Hu Mei, Ling Tian's expression was full of anxiety.
.
"It's getting late today. After dinner, go back and go to bed early. Let your mother teach you tomorrow." Ling Yun took over the conversation without waiting for Hu Mei's reply.
"Oh." Ling Tian said, with a strong hint of disappointment in his tone.
"Haha, hurry up and go eat." Ling Yun said with a slight smile.
"Yes, I understand, father." Ling Tian said helplessly. He knew that what his father said would not change, so he had to go to eat first.
The meal passed like this with Ling Yun laughing secretly, the innocence on Fox Mei's face, and the bitter smile on Ling Tian's face, coupled with anticipation.
"Father, mother, I'm going back." Ling Tian saluted Ling Yun and his wife and was about to walk out.
"Tian'er, wait a minute." Seeing Ling Tian bowing to the couple and going back to sleep, Ling Yun quickly stopped him.
"What's the matter, father?" Ling Tian's face was full of confusion.
"Go on." Ling Yun didn't say anything else and threw a book directly to Ling Tian.
Ling Tian took the book and took a closer look. It turned out to be "The Phantom Body Technique of the Phantom God". His face became more confused and he looked at Ling Yun blankly, as if waiting for Ling Yun to explain. The book was obviously
It was copied long ago.
"Well, I know you won't be able to sleep at night, so I'll give you a book to read first, just to let you understand it first. Besides, your mother's movement skills are very profound and obscure. I'm afraid you won't be able to learn them in a while. I'll go back today.
Just preview it first. If you have some basic knowledge, it will be easier to teach you tomorrow." Ling Yun said calmly and leisurely without being impatient.
"Well, thank you father and mother, I'm going back." The doubts on Ling Tian's face disappeared, and his excitement was palpable. He couldn't wait to go out after saying that, probably because he wanted to go back early to see the movement technique.
.
"By the way, father, I picked a few snake spirit fruits for you today." Thinking of something, Ling Tian took out a few snake spirit fruits and threw them to Ling Yun.
"Snake Spirit Fruit!" Ling Yun's eyes lit up: "How did you get it?"
"I went out to look for food today, but I didn't expect to encounter the Snake Spirit Fruit." Ling Tian said these words lightly. He didn't want his father and mother to know that he was in danger.
"Haha, it's rare for you to have filial piety, but with our cultivation, the Spirit Snake Fruit is of no use to us, but it is very beneficial to you." With that said, Ling Yun threw the Snake Spirit Fruit back.
"Hee hee, I still have quite a few. Let me give it a try and eat it as fruit." Ling Tian smiled slightly, threw the spirit fruit back to Ling Tian, and then ran away quickly without waiting for Ling Yun to say anything.
Already.
"This child, haha." After Ling Tian left, the smile on Ling Yun's face became even stronger: "There must be a red flame python guarding the snake spirit fruit. I don't know what kind of danger this child will encounter today. I'm afraid he doesn't want us to worry.
Bar."
"Zhizhi!" Hu Meihu's eyes were full of love.
"Haha, this guy is pretty good." Ling Yun was filled with relief.
…
As for Ling Tian, he couldn't wait to return to his residence, opened the book and read it seriously.
"Illusion God Phantom Body Technique" is a unique movement technique of the "Nine-tailed Fox" clan. Its movement technique can greatly speed up the practitioner's speed and body flexibility. When practiced to the extreme, it can produce phantoms, charm all living beings, and is physically fast.
The flying bird looks as erratic as a god, hence the name "Phantom God Phantom Body Technique".
When Ling Tian saw this, he was extremely excited. During the day, he had been embarrassed by the Shadow Rabbits, and he was worried that he could not save his "face." If he learned this movement, all his problems would probably be solved. I thought.
Then, he studied it more carefully.
"Phantom of the Phantom God" talks about various body skills, which can be said to be all-inclusive. It includes soaring, moving, jumping, dodging, leaping, etc. It is very complicated and unusual, and is very suitable for use in small spaces.
It is small, flexible and versatile. There are many steps in this movement, which are very strange and difficult to understand. Each step has many variations, and each variation has many strange features.
Ling Tian looked at it for a long time and only remembered a few things. After staying for a long time, he almost forgot all the changes and only remembered some of the essence. Ling Tian had no choice but to start from the beginning again. This time he read while reading.
He walked back and forth according to the content in the book, sometimes jumping and sometimes jumping. The small bedroom was full of Ling Tian's busy figure. Ling Tian didn't care about the forgotten movement skills, he just jumped around according to his temper. This set
He managed to finish the body technique, but it felt a bit specious. After a night, he was so exhausted that he even forgot about the experiment of cultivating Taoist spiritual energy.
The next morning, there was no doubt that Ling Tian went out with dark eyes again. This time, Ling Yun actually followed him, saying "secretly" that he wanted to see Ling Tian make a fool of himself, which made Ling Tian smile bitterly.
The two of them and the fox quickly arrived at the place where they were yesterday. More than ten Swift Shadow Rabbits had arrived early, with expressions as if they were afraid that Ling Tian would not come.
"Tian'er, you must have read the book "The Phantom Body Technique of the Phantom God". How is it? Have you tried practicing? I guess you must have practiced. How is your practice going?" Ling Yun clearly had a deep look in his eyes.
He smiled evilly, thinking that he also knew the "strange" part of this movement.
"Father, my cultivation is not very good. I watched it for a while and then forgot it. Now I have basically forgotten it and only remember a little bit." Ling Tian had a look of shame on his face.
"Oh? Is that true?" I thought Ling Yun would make fun of Ling Tian, but unexpectedly Ling Yun's face was full of curiosity and excitement.
"Well, yes, but I only vaguely remember it. There is always a sense of paradox." Although Ling Tian was surprised by his father's behavior, he answered truthfully. After speaking, he jumped up according to his own practice. Although his
The movement is a bit clumsy, but it is indeed much more agile and faster.
"Hey, could it be that Tian'er has really mastered the essence of "Illusion God Phantom Body Technique"?" Ling Yun looked at Hu Mei with curiosity on his face and said uncertainly.
Hu Mei squeaked a few times, and Hu Weizhen looked very surprised, which further strengthened Ling Yun's idea.
"It seems so. This movement technique emphasizes the word "change". It requires people to do whatever they want in order to use the magic of this movement technique. Applying it mechanically will be counterproductive. Unexpectedly, Tian'er realized the essence of this movement technique in just one night.
, the only difference is that we are familiar with it." Ling Yun murmured, very surprised. Hu Mei was also surprised after hearing this.
"Okay, Tian'er, come here." Seeing that Ling Tian was having fun, Ling Tian had no choice but to interrupt him.
"Well, Father, I'm not practicing well, so I asked Father for advice." Ling Tian looked ashamed. According to his opinion, the movement technique he used was just something he picked up casually, and it had many shortcomings.
.
"Haha, you're already doing very well. This body technique emphasizes "changing" and "doing whatever you want". You're just not proficient yet. You'll be fine after you practice for a while." Ling Yun said with a smile.
"Is this really true, father?" Obviously, Ling Tian was a little unbelievable that he had learned this magical movement by accident while walking casually?
"Well, yes." Seeing that Ling Tian didn't believe it, Ling Yun looked serious and said solemnly.
"Is this okay!?" Ling Tian was overjoyed.
"Go and try to catch a rabbit." Seeing that Ling Tian was a little complacent, Ling Yun smiled meaningfully.
Ling Tian took a deep breath and confidently spread out his movements to catch rabbits. However, Ling Tian soon stopped laughing. Although he rarely hit trees and his movements were much more flexible and faster,
Still only able to catch the afterimage of the Swift Shadow Rabbit. The Swift Shadow Rabbit could always escape at the slightest chance. After trying several times, it was still like this. Ling Tian had no choice but to stop and look at Ling Yun with a pleading look on his face.
couple.
"Haha, Tian'er, you are still a little unskilled. In addition, the changes are too few and too slow. Before you change, the Swift Shadow Rabbit has already seen your next movements, so naturally you won't catch them." Ling Yun
Explain patiently.
After listening to his father's words, Ling Tian was thoughtful. He stood there motionless and thought about it seriously.
"What my father said is that I still have too few changes. There should be many changes after each movement, covering a wide range of changes. No matter what movements the rabbits make next, these changes of mine should be able to include their movements in advance." Ling
Tian's mind lit up and he said secretly.
"It's just that it's easy to say, but how to do it?"
Ling Tian suddenly moved at this moment, looked at Hu Mei who was smiling and said: "Mother, you can catch the Shadow Rabbit once and show it to me, okay?"
Hu Mei didn't say a word, and rushed towards the Swift Shadow Rabbit in a flash. Her figure was ethereal and elegant, flashing with phantoms, as if in a dream, with one movement made and nine points hidden. Before Ling Tian could scream, Hu Mei
Xunying Rabbit has been pushed to the ground. Xunying Rabbit was caught before he even had time to react, which is evident from this.
"Ah, it's so fast. The breathing and footwork are consistent, as if they are one body." Ling Tian marveled.
Seeing Ling Tian's praise, her foxy eyes narrowed tightly, and she was extremely happy. Seeing that the Swift Shadow Rabbit was struggling and full of pleading, she loosened her fox claws, and the Swift Shadow Rabbit flew away in a flash and fled far away.
.
"Haha, do you understand, Tian'er?" Ling Yun asked with a slight smile.
Ling Tian pondered for a moment, closed his eyes, and recalled the whole process of Hu Mei's movements. He nodded, shook his head, opened his eyes and said, "I seem to understand, but also seem to be more confused."
