I use myths to create immortality

Chapter 23: Empty Thoughts, Immortal Weapons
Ji Yuan frowned slightly, and following the mysterious feeling, he looked up into the sky.

The sky was blue and white, and there were misty clouds between the mountains of Yuntaishan, but nothing seemed unusual.

"My fellow Taoists have been secretly eyeing me for a long time. Do you also want to compete with me?" Ji Yuan said lightly.

A slight trace of magic power within his body extended into the air, sweeping away many invisible thoughts.

He has cultivated magical powers that make him both ordinary and extraordinary; he has many supernatural perceptions, and is at one with nature, able to sense changes in celestial phenomena such as clouds, rain, and fog within a thousand miles.

Those who are highly accomplished in Taoism can tell victory or defeat by smelling the wind, recognize weapons by smelling the soil, and foresee crises.

Naturally, he can also sense the fluctuations of magic power and the battles between others.

Just now when Ji Yuan and Zhao Chengyin were fighting, many invisible thoughts came through the void to watch.

……

Dozens of miles away, in the Ziqi Pavilion, Linghe Zhenren retracted his thoughts and smiled at the two people below him: "See, I said there was something mysterious about this boy; his blood and energy are like dragons and tigers, and he was able to defeat fellow Taoist Lingyin with martial arts alone."

"So powerful! He must have practiced some mysterious pagan skills. He is so powerful at such a young age. I'm afraid we are no match for him in terms of martial arts." Taoist Lingzhi's face was slightly tense.

Ling Xuan retracted his thoughts and sneered, "Who doesn't know that Ji Erwa is born with supernatural powers? You don't know that he also has a special skill that can release insects to transform into incarnations."

"That insect's special ability is also extraordinary. It can carry consciousness. I once refined it with real fire, but it was not afraid of fire. Fortunately, Old Commandant Yin used the [Yin Yang Twin Dragon Sword] to emit a trace of sword energy, and finally killed it."

"Lingyin relies on the golden whip of the exotic beast, and has a hundred years of magic power. He is good at the family-inherited fairy vine binding technique. He is also a first-class figure in this area within a thousand miles. Even the real person gives him some respect and never accepts the real person's discipline."

"The Immortal has only used a small trick. Junior Brother Lingyin has become a clawless eagle and a toothless tiger. I dare not disobey the Immortal's decree anymore."

Lingzhi heard this and said with some fear: "Fortunately, I have not tried to take his magic, otherwise the consequences would be unpredictable. Our Taoist temple is too small to accommodate such a person. The master is right to send him to the main temple outside the domain."

"But I think this boy has some other great saintly legend from another religion. Could he be a spy sent by another religion or race?"

Upon hearing this, Master Linghe stopped smiling and said, "Junior Brother Lingzhi, what you said makes sense. Junior Brother Lingxuan, you should go down the mountain tomorrow to find out the origins of Ji Erwa's hometown."

"You are new to Taoism, and you don't know that there are many gods, demons, and saints in the wilderness outside the domain. They are the mortal enemies of the founders of the immortal sects of our human race. They often cultivate immortal bodies, pick stars and moons, and can carry mountains and seas on their shoulders to travel across the wilderness. They have unparalleled supernatural powers. I think they are somewhat similar to Ji Erwa."

"Yes!"

……

Youlan Garden.

Those strong men were beaten with rattan whips and suffered serious injuries, except Yin Yaoer, who was only slightly frightened and was not seriously injured.

"Thank you for the rescue, Taoist priest." The group of strong men bowed reluctantly despite their injuries.

"No need. This matter was caused by me. I am the one who has dragged you down." Ji Yuan shook his head.

Pointing at the bloody body of the strange beast on the ground.

"Everyone, take this strange beast's body away, gut it, clean it, and then we can steam or boil it and eat it."

"Thank you, Taoist Priest!" The strong men were overjoyed.

The meat of monsters and exotic beasts can be considered as magical medicine, and it can greatly replenish qi and blood. These strong men, who are supported by the Yin family, are just menial servants, so how can they normally eat such delicious food?

They couldn't help but sigh in their hearts that the beating was not in vain; this Immortal Ji was really generous.

"It hurts so much! It's all your fault, you dog..." Yin Yaoer hadn't finished her words.

Ji Yuan interrupted her, "Yao'er, quickly clean up and prepare a quiet room for me; I want to practice magic in seclusion."

Ji Yuan felt that his magic power was too weak now, even just a tiny bit.

The furs of the exotic animals have been obtained, but there is no rush as we still need to practice magic weapons, comprehend spells, etc.

Instead, one must first sit in seclusion to consolidate the existing level of magical power, and practice to accumulate magical power.

"You!! You really treat me as your maid, you dog slave..." Yin Yaoer was furious.

She couldn't bear it any longer, and regardless of everything, she bared her teeth and claws and rushed towards Ji Yuan to bite.

It's of no use.

Ji Yuan stretched out his hand and pinched her cheek; then he turned his hand and snapped her fingers, and there was a "pop" sound.

"Ah! It hurts so much..."

Yin Yaoer screamed miserably. She now felt her head buzzing and her eyes were full of stars.

"Go quickly!" Ji Yuan said, and walked to the side to help the strong men peel the flesh and blood of the strange beasts.

The exotic beasts raised by immortals must be fed with magical medicines and materials; they are equivalent to high-end vehicles like sports cars and Ferraris and are extremely precious.

Therefore, the blood and flesh of these strange beasts contain tiny amounts of spiritual energy.

If ordinary people eat it, it can strengthen their muscles and bones and strengthen their qi and blood.

If monks eat it, they can also refine some magic power and strengthen their physical fitness.

"Ah!! Ji Erwa, you deserve to die!" Yin Yaoer, who had just recovered from the severe headache, acted like a madman, and was so angry that she rushed over regardless of everything.

But Ji Yuan cut the lower body of the strange beast with a knife, and picked up a bloody object that was as thick as a rolling pin and about two feet long.

"Don't waste this treasure. Give it to Miss Yin."

"Huh? I don't want to. It's such a big lump, so scary..." Yin Yaoer covered her mouth instantly and shrank to the side.

……

In the newly cleaned quiet room, candles were lit dimly.

Ji Yuan sat cross-legged alone in the quiet room, looking at the spoils he had gained from defeating Zhao Chengyin.

Two pieces of golden whips and a roll of animal skin that was glowing with spiritual light.

The golden whip is gilded all over, as thick as a rolling pin, with sharp edges, and weighs twenty kilograms.

Ji Yuan took it in his hand and shook it, then shook his head: "It's still too light for me and not very comfortable to hold."

He had carefully observed that the material of the pair of tiger-eye golden whips was extraordinary, neither copper, iron nor steel; but there were no restrictive talismans on them.

It is neither a Dharma instrument nor a Dharma treasure.

It's just a weapon.

But it is extremely tough, and its quality far exceeds that of ordinary gold and iron; it is even not afraid of fire, and even Ji Yuan, with his tremendous force, cannot bend it.

"This immortal weapon is also extraordinary." Ji Yuan praised again.

In this world's cultivation system, cultivators rely on not only magic spells and magic weapons, but also various martial arts.

Yes, martial arts; martial arts are also extremely precious, and are often only passed down among aristocratic families. The poor are good at literature, while the rich are good at martial arts. Or only monks or generals have enough money to practice martial arts.

It is a profound martial art with a complicated system that is simply inaccessible to ordinary people.

It is for this reason that immortals and demons often develop all kinds of magical weapons.

It is said that this powerful divine weapon can cut hair with a single blow, carve rocks like tofu, and can change size as desired; just like the [Dinghai Shenzhen] Ruyi Jingu Bang and the like, it can greatly enhance martial arts.

These two golden whips are made of extraordinary materials, but they cannot be considered as magical weapons of immortals.

It also cannot change its size or shape as it pleases like the Dinghai Shenzhen.

But it also has magical aspects; it weighs only 20 pounds in the hand, but once it is thrown out, it can be as heavy as a thousand pounds and can break stones and split rocks with ease.

Even the strange beast [Red Bearded Golden-eyed Camel] couldn't withstand a whip and its head was blown to pieces. This shows how powerful it is.
