Qiao Dahai had to die because he was alive and had threatened many people, including Xia Pingan. For Xia Pingan, his life was both a sacrifice and a harvest.

Qiao Dahai wanted to plot against Xia Pingan, but he didn't know that his life was sold to Xia Pingan for 400,000 gold coins in exchange for a flying world bead and a bunch of pills to replenish his divine power. Xia Pingan also used his life to

Pay homage to Lin Qing.

When the Dark Demon comes into contact with the next target, Xia Pingan will then choose who to "sell" to the Judgment Army.

The palace master who sent the five demons to the capital would never have imagined that once the five demons he sent met Xia Pingan, they would unknowingly become Xia Pingan's meal.

After drinking, Xia Pingan took out the two world beads he got today and took a look at them. His eyes became firm again, and he turned around and disappeared in the blink of an eye.

A drop of water cuts through a stone, a rope cuts through a wood, if you want to advance to a higher level, you can only do it step by step, and never miss the opportunity to fuse every boundary bead.

…

Two hours later, in the underground secret room of the small courtyard at the foot of Pingshan Mountain, the light cocoon on Xia Pingan's body disappeared, and Xia Pingan slowly opened his eyes.

For those who are familiar with the allusion of "a blockbuster", integrating this world bead is too simple. For Xia Pingan, it is like playing. It only takes an hour. It is like waking up from a dream.

After becoming the King of Chuzhuang for a time, the world bead that can make people "roar like a lion" was successfully fused. Xia Ping'an mastered one more small technique, and the upper limit of labor saving in the secret mandala temple reached 3915 points.

After fusing this world bead, Xia Pingan took out the flying world bead that can only be fused in the Four Yang realm.

The flying world bead is a very special world bead. The special thing about this world bead is that even if you have the spiritual mind crystal, the success rate of fusion of this world bead is less than 50%. As for those who do not have the spiritual mind crystal,

The possibility of successfully integrating this world pearl is negligible.

For some things, even if you know the answer, you may not be able to reproduce or imitate it. This is the case with this flying world bead.

In the mouths of other summoners, this flying world bead has another name, called the wind-winged world bead, which uses wind as its wings to travel around the world.

This boundary bead is sky blue. There are flowing clouds in the boundary bead, and there are only four golden characters in the boundary bead - Liezi Yufeng!

Xia Pingan's expression became solemn after receiving the world bead.

To be honest, even if Xia Ping'an knows the answer to this world bead, he is not completely sure about its fusion. This is just like some people who know the principles of making an atomic bomb but cannot make it.

In Liezi's words, because of the "limitations" of language, the true "Tao" cannot be taught in words.

This world bead is a bit like Li Guizhen's world bead, but its difficulty is much more difficult than Li Guizhen's world bead. This is why summoners in the Four Yang realm have the ability to fuse this world bead.

Possibly - because the fools have been screened out at the front, summoners in the Four Yang Realm are already masters among summoners.

Xia Pingan calmed down, pricked his finger, and dropped blood on the boundary beads. After a while, Xia Pingan's whole body was wrapped in a blue cocoon of light, and he entered the world of the boundary beads.

…

Xia Pingan opened his eyes and found himself sitting cross-legged in a thatched cottage.

Just in front of him, there was an old man with white hair and a white beard sitting cross-legged in a Taoist robe. There was a wooden hairpin on the old man's head, and his face was as simple as a rock. When Xia Pingan opened his eyes, he happened to see two

A yellow butterfly rested on the old man's wooden hairpin, seeming to regard the old man as a branch.

As soon as Xia Pingan opened his eyes, the two butterflies seemed to feel something and flew away.

The old man still had his eyes closed, like a stone, without saying a word.

The scene in front of him made Xia Ping'an immediately certain that the old man sitting opposite him was the peerless master Huqiuzi. Huqiuzi was Liezi's teacher. It was Huqiuzi who taught Liezi the ability to fly into the sky and control the wind.

In the history books, Liezi's teacher was a divine man. In addition to teaching Liezi how to fly in the wind, the most famous story passed down is "The Four Phases of Huqiu" - this is a story about a man who can change himself at will.

"Xiang", a person who can die if he wants, live if he wants, is unpredictable, and can scare away the most famous fortune teller who was famous among the princes at that time without even uttering a word after revealing his true colors.

No one knows what the original "look" of Huqiuzi is, which can scare away fortune tellers.

Seeing that Huqiuzi didn't speak, Xia Ping'an didn't say a word either. He continued to close his eyes and mouth, and stopped thinking. He didn't speak, and he didn't have the slightest idea of ​​right and wrong in his heart. He put all his feelings on himself.

Breathe in and enter a meditative state.

After an unknown amount of time, Xia Ping'an woke up from hunger. He opened his eyes without saying a word. He just glanced at Huqiuzi, who was still sitting cross-legged in silence with his eyes closed, and then came outside the thatched cottage.

The thatched cottage is in the mountains, and there is a creek nearby. The water in the creek is crystal clear, and fish can be seen swimming. Farther away, there is the scenery of the mountains, with bamboo forests, pines, mist, strange rocks, rolling waves, flying clouds, and mountain breezes.

, with the breath of orchids, it makes people feel relaxed and happy, it is a fairyland.

There are three thatched cottages here. In addition to the one just now, there are two more outside, one of which seems to be the kitchen.

Being so hungry, Xia Pingan had no choice but to go to the kitchen to take a look.

There was a wooden bucket in the kitchen with water in it. In addition to the wooden bucket, there was also a purple pottery cauldron. When he opened the pottery cauldron, there were several green-purple lumps inside. Xia Pingan used his fingers to

Twist it a little, it's slightly bitter and salty. This thing is salt.

In addition to salt, there are some pine nuts, two bamboo shoots, a little Polygonatum sibiricum, and a few wild fruits in the kitchen.

Xia Pingan made something to eat in the kitchen. After filling his stomach, he continued back to the thatched cottage where Huqiuzi was. He continued to meditate with his eyes closed, without saying a word or thinking a single thought in his mind. He waited until night when he was really sleepy.

Xia Pingan returned to the room outside and lay down on the straw mat to sleep.

This is exactly the life of an ascetic.

From today on, Xia Pingan's daily life consists of eating, sleeping, and meditating. He does not speak or move any thoughts at any time.

After finishing the food in the kitchen, Xia Pingan went to the mountains to find and pick it himself.

Huqiuzi has been meditating, not eating, not talking, not moving, not opening his eyes, as if he is completely petrified. No matter it is windy or rainy outside, or lightning and thunder, he remains in that posture. What's even stranger is,

The old man's body is always clean and he seems not to be touched by dust.

In the first few days, Xia Pingan was very unaccustomed to this kind of life, but thinking that Liezi had been through this, he forced himself to adapt.

But as time went by, Xia Pingan gradually got used to it. Although Huqiuzi and he were nominally masters and disciples, Huqiuzi at this moment was like a stone statue that could not move, and Xia Pingan was like a person living in the mountains.

.

Xia Ping'an practiced in front of Huqiuzi for more than three years. He didn't talk about his greatness and couldn't bear to think about right and wrong. After three years of this, one day, Huqiuzi, who had always been like a stone statue, opened his eyes and looked at the grass.

Xia Pingan, who has been cultivating in the hut for more than three years, took a look.

It was this glance that inspired Xia Pingan.

Xia Pingan continues to practice...

Two years later, Huqiuzi smiled at Xia Pingan...

Two years later, Huqiuzi asked Xia Pingan to sit at the same table with him.

By the ninth year, Xia Pingan has cultivated to the point where there is no difference between the inside and outside of the body. There is no difference. The eyes, ears, nose, mouth and other five senses can also communicate with each other. There is no difference. You can listen with your eyes and see with your ears. The eyes seem to be

The nose, the nose seemed like a big mouth, there was no difference. The whole person's spiritual consciousness seemed to be condensed together, and the bones and flesh seemed to have melted. Huqiuzi finally spoke to Xia Pingan.

"I will teach you the great truth today, please listen carefully!"

"Master, please speak!" Xia Ping'an sat upright and listened carefully.

"What is born cannot be born, and what is transformed cannot be transformed. What is not born can be born, and what is not transformed can be transformed. What is born cannot but be born, and what is transformed cannot be untransformed, so it is always born and transformed. What is constantly born and transformed is not born at all times.

, there is no time to change. Yin and Yang, the four seasons, those who are not born are doubtful alone, and those who are not transformed go back and forth. The journey back and forth cannot be ended, and the doubtful way is endless. "Huangdi Shu" says: "The Grain God is immortal, this means

Xuan Mu. The gate of Xuan Mu is the root of heaven and earth. It exists continuously but is not used diligently. Therefore, things in bamboo do not come into being, and things that transform into things do not transform. They generate and transform by themselves, take their own shapes and colors, have their own intelligence and strength, and are self-produced and self-transformed.

News comes from itself. It is not right to call it biochemistry, shape, intelligence, and news... (Note 1) "

…

One month later, Xia Ping'an soared into the sky in the valley, sailed against the wind, and flew directly back to his hometown of Zheng Guopian, causing a huge sensation.

…

Xia Ping'an came out of the secret room, and the sky was already slightly bright.

Standing in the yard, while thinking, my whole body seemed to be integrated into the wind, like a feather. There were invisible winds gathering around me, but they were dispersed by the invisible power underground.

This feeling is great!

The boundary bead of Liezi Yufeng directly gave Xia Pingan 80 points of divine power. The upper limit of divine power in Xia Pingan's secret mandala directly reached 3995 points.

A shadow flashed in the courtyard, but it was a woman wearing a black robe who had taken away Cao Cao yesterday, who appeared in the courtyard.

"Miss is a little worried about you. Let me come and see if you are okay..." Before Xia Pingan could say anything, the woman said directly.

"Is Cao Cao okay?"

"Miss, everything is fine. It's just that there was some chaos in the capital these past two days. Miss can't come out at will, otherwise many people will not be able to bear the consequences. Is there anything you want me to bring to miss..."

Xia Pingan knew that yesterday's incident at Peach Blossom Bridge almost involved the princess, and countless people in the capital were frightened yesterday.

"As long as it's alright, this... I don't have anything to bring her!"

The woman smiled, and the look on her face suddenly became much gentler, and she said in a coaxing way, "If you think about it again, you might as well bring something with you, or simply write a letter, so that our lady won't have to worry about it, and it will be easier for me to do business.

Our young lady has never been so worried about someone. Look, I have prepared things for you...", the woman said, and with a wave of her hand, the pen, ink, paper, and inkstone table all appeared in front of Xia Pingan.

Xia Pingan: "..."

…

Walking out of Changle Lane, a black carriage from Donggang Carriage Company was waiting there to pick up Xia Pingan.

The major car dealers in Donggang District seemed to have some compromise. Every day, carriages from different car dealers picked up and dropped off Xia Pingan here.

Seeing Xia Pingan come out, the neatly dressed coachman opened the door for Xia Pingan respectfully.

After getting in the car, Xia Ping'an picked up the newspaper on the car and saw the eye-catching title on the front page of the newspaper "Yesterday's Blood Demon Cult Monster who caused chaos in Taohua Bridge was punished"

The news was so fast that it not only stabilized the people's sentiments, but also was a huge shock to those who were ready to take action in the capital.
