Chapter 420: Entering the Mountains and Seeing Around the World
There are mountains on the island and caves in the mountains.
There are formations outside the cave.
Therefore, deep in the cave, a young man named traveling around is sitting cross-legged and practicing with peace of mind.
He sat on the cushion, and there were Yin and Yang array patterns on the rock wall behind him, which showed the changes of Tai Chi Bagua.
His breathing was calm and his breath continued. His mind sank into his body to operate the exercises, without any concerns about outside world. Even if there was a master from the sixth level of heaven on the island, he had already left behind him.
It can be seen that he has extremely high confidence in the formations on the island.
In fact, this formation is one of the many reasons why Xu Lao Dao is superior to Zhou You, but he dares not move strongly.
But seeing Zhou You meditating and practicing with a dull breath, it actually has the meaning of Taoism.
Others do not know their origins, but only he knows in his heart that the method he practices is left over from an immortal in the upper realm. His path of cultivation also follows the idea of that immortal, refining magic power internally and refining golden elixirs externally, complementing each other, seeking to become an immortal.
This is also the reason why he is still young, but has entered the state of Taoism and has achieved extremely high elixir skills.
Because the internal and external alchemy paths complement each other, not only does not slow down the practice due to distracted study of alchemy methods, but instead has many benefits.
As for the old Mr. Xu on the island... in his attainment of refining weapons and his perseverance in seeking Dharma, it is admirable.
But as Zhou You thought before, he was still young and had a bright future, so he really had no idea of accepting disciples.
To take a step back, he has only obtained the scattered inheritance of the immortal family. If he really wants to accept disciples, he must first let himself be under the immortal family and obtain a permit.
Becoming the true disciple of that immortal is also his great wish.
It took a long time.
He sat cross-legged on the cushion without moving at all. In fact, his body had already achieved 365th heaven of merit and perfection, and his magic power increased a little more.
"If you can refine this furnace of alchemy and take it, you should be able to realize the peak of this realm and reach the threshold of the fifth level of heaven."
This thought flashed through Zhou You's mind, and then he opened his eyes.
Then in front of him, the rock wall suddenly separated and the outside light shone brightly.
A man walked slowly along the separated rock wall from the white light, his steps were smooth.
"you……"
Zhou You suddenly was shocked, his heart was suddenly shocked, his hand shook, he started the magic weapon and shouted forward, "Who are you?"
There are formations on the island, which are arranged with caves as the center. Even if they run on their own, they are very powerful without him to control them. Even people from the fifth level of heaven cannot easily shake the formation...
Even people like Mr. Xu, who are in the upper realm of the sixth level of heaven, cannot pass through the formation silently and come to the cave... because the moment he stepped on the formation, Zhou You would wake up and control the magic array to resist it.
But the person in front of me...
Zhou You's pupils tightened, his heart was shocked and even more anxious.
"Mr. Zhou."
The visitor said with a smile: "My name is Qingyuan."
For some reason, Zhou You heard his mouth open, and his panic suddenly dissipated three points. Perhaps he heard that the other party's tone was calm and without malice.
"I don't know what I mean by visiting me?" Zhou You took a deep breath, and his skills were used to barely calm down his heart. After a while, he said: "When I think about it carefully, Zhou and Mr. Zhou have never met before, so he should have never had any intersections or any grudges?"
Kiyohara bowed slightly and said, "Mr. Zhou, don't worry, I have no malice."
After saying that, he looked at it for a moment and saw the cave room in the mountain, which was empty and dark, with a cushion below, and the rock wall carved the Yin and Yang Bagua. In the south, there was a stove. In addition to the heat, the alchemy energy was everywhere and the room was filled with fragrance.
"I was here to find Mr. Xu and asked him to refine treasures, but Mr. Xu was determined to take you as his teacher, and he would have no mind to do other things."
Qingyuan withdrew his gaze and fell on Zhou You again, and said with a smile: "Old Xu means that if you can accept him as your disciple, he will owe me a favor and can refine treasures for me."
Zhou You had some predictions, but it was not surprising. He just shook his head and said, "It is not easy for me to practice. In addition to practicing martial arts every day, I will study the methods of alchemy carefully. These two things alone are enough to exhaust my life's energy... Even now, I have no time to study hard, but the time is too short. How can I still accept disciples? Let's take a step back, with Mr. Xu's age, older than me, how can I continue my future inheritance?"
Qingyuan actually had a deep impression of this. Even though he was practicing, he thought so much that only one Gu Cang was able to teach him. In addition, he had never thought of accepting disciples.
"But there are always some methods..."
Kiyohara smiled and said, "For example, by looking at the same thing?"
Zhou You's eyebrows were slightly frowning.
Qingyuan said: "The talisman method and the formation are outlined with patterns, which coincides with the trajectory of heaven and earth, thus showing extraordinary effects. However, in terms of their essence, they are both patterns. There was a saying that the talisman array is not divided. Some people use runes to arrange the array, and some people are deploying the array on the talisman paper. In fact, the two are indeed different, but there are many similarities..."
Zhou You pondered and said, "Brother Tao means that it is the same method of refining, alchemy and treasure refining, which is the same?"
"It may not be the same, but there are always similarities."
Qingyuan smiled and said, "Mr. Xu respects you very much. He once said that with your alchemy attainment, as long as you spend some effort, you will have extraordinary achievements in refining weapons. And if he can learn the method of refining alchemy, then his attainment in refining weapons will inevitably be a little higher... Of course, I can see that perhaps his thoughts on refining alchemy are no less than those of refining weapons."
Zhou You nodded and said, "Old Xu is indeed very eager for the way to refine alchemy, but he has never been able to obtain the method."
The method of refining weapons is a treasure that has various uses, but most of it is used to protect the body or fight, which does not benefit much from Taoist practice. The method of refining alchemy also has various uses, countless of which are the most common ones, which is beneficial to one's own practice.
Some practitioners focus on fighting and protecting their lives, so they think that it is a magic weapon. And many practitioners think that elixirs can increase their cultivation, which is the foundation of the practitioner and is even more important.
Zhou You is obviously the latter.
"You can't chew too much and you can't get rid of it. Only by focusing on everything can you achieve something."
Zhou You shook his head and said, "Zhou is unwilling to explore other aspects anymore. As for Mr. Xu... he still has some rest."
Kiyohara was quite funny when he saw that he refused with briskly. Anyone who had amazing achievements in one aspect always seemed so strange?
However, in comparison, Zhou You is obviously more normal than Mr. Xu. After all, he is still a young man. Secondly, the reason why he is proficient in alchemy is just for the sake of practicing.
"What if you look at these things again?"
Qingyuan suddenly stretched out his hand, and the ancient mirror swirled out and fell down.
There was a loud bang.
The ground trembled.
The entire cave seemed to become very narrow.
Zhou You was stunned. The next moment, his eyes suddenly changed, and the storm was already stirring up in his heart. The elegant and indifferent expression disappeared in an instant, leaving only a little bit of shock and doubt.
Because there was a huge beast body that appeared in the cave.
The whole body is as red as fire, with a scattered armor, but it is seen with a single horn on the top of the head, long beards under the jaw, its body is like a cow, and its power is like a god.
"This is……"
