I use myths to create immortality

Chapter 39: Crossing the River by Boat, the Woman in Red
There are dozens of countries in the territory, which is millions of miles wide.

Among them, the Chen Dynasty was the largest, with thirteen states and a dense population, and its territory occupied the most prime area in the region.

These thirteen states were also divided up among various religious forces; the Xuanwei Sect only controlled Yun and Jing states.

Ji Yuan was in Yuntai Taoist Temple, which was Jingzhou among the thirteen prefectures of the State of Chen. Lingyang County, Zeyi, and Qingtang Township where he was born were all under the jurisdiction of Jingzhou.

From Jingzhou, one has to go to Nanshanyu and reach the Xuanwei Sect's ancestral altar; it is a journey of tens of thousands of miles, which is extremely long.

The most critical thing is to leave the domain and cross the tens of thousands of miles of wilderness of Kanyuanze, which is connected to the endless wilderness with countless strange beasts and monsters, which is extremely dangerous for cultivators.

It is precisely for this reason that most cultivators who have no special abilities dare only practice in the lower academy of Zhongzhou; they do not dare, nor do they have the ability, to reach the ancestral temple outside the domain.

Only the most outstanding and capable ones among all the academies will be recommended to the ancestral temple.

The Lancang River is surging with wind and waves; several-meter-long ships are drifting in the river; they are moving downstream.

Ji Yuan, with her hair tied up in a jade hairpin and a green dress with wide sleeves, was sitting by the window on the second floor of the boat; her eyes were watching the green mountains on both sides passing by.

It has been a day since they came down the mountain; Ji Yuan was going to the outer domain, so all the strong men in Youlan Garden, including Qin Feng, were distributed gold and silver and dismissed.

Alone, I rented an entire large boat and sailed down the river.

The journey to the outside world is long, and it is impossible to rely on flying all the time; Ji Yuan plans to take a boat in the human world, and then fly after leaving the human world.

"There are too few talented practitioners in Zhongzhou. Being greedy and killing too much will ultimately lead to a shallow shoal. The wilderness outside the region is where I should go." Ji Yuan put his hands in his sleeves, stroking the wind bag.

He likes to put the wind bag in his sleeves.

He is also accustomed to waving his sleeves to cast spells and summon the wind.

"When I can master a magical weapon like the One that can hold the universe in my sleeve, I will also comprehend the great power of holding the universe in my sleeve..."

With just one sleeve, the universe can be contained, covering the sky and blocking the sun, collecting people and taking things. Ji Yuan longed for this.

However, there is no need to rush. You should first comprehend the true talisman of the Fantian Seal and practice the Fantian Seal to protect yourself.

Calling the wind and rain is a great supernatural power; the wind bag is also a good treasure; but these two things are actually more inclined to the mysterious creation, the movement of the power of heaven and earth.

It's not enough to use it for fighting and killing.

Not strong enough.

Ji Yuan was the only one on the second floor of the entire ship.

Ji Yuan took out the jade sceptre engraved with the 'Flying Stone' talisman, summoned a ray of magical power to gather at his fingertips, and wrote the talisman on the table.

Compare with the true talisman of Fantian Seal.

In the mind, [Mythological Atlas] thousands of spiritual lights gathered together, constantly drawing on the mysteries from the void of heaven and earth, and unraveling the secrets of the true talisman.

After comprehending the magical power of [Calling the Wind and Summoning Rain], Ji Yuan discovered that this volume of mythological illustrations had many mysteries, and could also help him increase his understanding and deduce magical powers.

"So that's how it is. This flying stone talisman requires using the spleen acupoints to absorb the energy of the earth's veins in advance. Using the energy of the earth's veins, write the talisman on the rocks. Only then can you move the mountains freely." Ji Yuan's eyes kept flashing with enlightenment.

The spleen acupoint is located in the spleen among the five internal organs and belongs to the earth element in the five elements.

But ordinary people actually do not have spleen acupoints.

This is just like the strange spiritual roots in the immortal cultivation novels I read in my previous life.

"No wonder Lingfeng said that even though I know the Flying Stone Technique, I can't master this strange technique!"

Ji Yuan chuckled in his heart: "This strange technique is quite extraordinary, but it is so troublesome; what's the point of me practicing it?"

With the help of the Flying Stone Talisman, Ji Yuan understood many profound principles about mountains.

I already have an idea. I will use the Heaven-Flipping Seal to attract the mountain spirit and practice the Heaven-Flipping Seal.

To practice the Fantian Seal, you must first use gold and iron as materials; then refine the seal in the furnace, engrave the true talisman, and absorb the spirits of the mountains.

The most difficult thing is how to capture the spirit of the mountain.

Now, with the help of the flying stone technique, Ji Yuan has realized that the so-called mountain spirit is actually the energy of the earth, collecting and transporting the energy of the earth veins.

“No wonder there is a legend in the myths of the past that the Heaven-Flipping Seal was cultivated with half of Mount Buzhou.”

This really makes sense.

It intercepts the power of mountains and instantly releases a force of billions of kilos; this kind of power is extremely powerful and can be used at any time.

It's not like the flying stone technique; you need to gather energy in advance, find suitable stones in advance, and engrave talismans on them. You can only use them within a certain range to hit people. This is too troublesome.

Moreover, it is only suitable for ambushing and attacking the place where the enemy must pass; this is actually more like the so-called formation.

The Fantian Seal omits these many steps; the seal is the mountain, and the true talisman is the spleen acupoint. It can call upon infinite earth energy at any time, and as long as the materials are sufficient, the power will be enhanced by more than a thousand times compared to the Flying Stone Technique.

"It would be great if I could find a piece of spiritual iron as material." Ji Yuan planned to refine the Heaven-Flipping Seal before arriving at the sect.

In this way, if you encounter trouble after arriving at the ancestral sect, you can use the Fantian Seal to protect yourself.

The Fantian Seal is a mythical treasure from the previous life; compared to the relatively simple and primitive cultivation system in this world, it is extremely exquisite.

Once it appears in this world, the rhythm of Tao will surely descend; it can increase the number of magical instruments and restrictions, and even make them become magic treasures.

Ordinary iron essence can also be used as material for training, but in that case, it will definitely be the same as the wind bag, limited by the material, and cannot be truly refined into a magic weapon.

Even if you find better materials later, you will have no chance to attract the Tao rhythm again.

Moreover, when refining the treasure, if Ji Yuan can draw on the infusion of Tao rhyme, he can also use this to achieve another magical power.

“It is said that the ancestral home of the sect is located in Kunwu Mountain in Nanshan. The main peak is known as the Southern Divine Mountain. It is tens of millions of feet high and is one of the highest peaks in the world. If I could cut it down and practice it to make the Heaven-Flipping Seal…” Ji Yuan couldn’t help but fantasize a little.

Just as he was daydreaming like this, a boatman came in and reported: "Master, there is a girl outside who is being chased by someone. She wants to borrow our boat to go to Yuanling County."

"I saw it. Don't worry about her. Speed ​​up." Ji Yuan looked out the window.

On the bank of the Lancang River, a dozen men in black, armed with bows and arrows and spears, were chasing a woman in red in the shade of the trees.

The woman was forced to jump into the river holding a piece of driftwood and ask for help from the ship in the river.

Those men in black were dressed in tight clothes, and they exuded a hint of murderous aura even from a distance; the woman in red who was being hunted had even more profound magical powers.

Ji Yuan doesn't intend to meddle in other people's business.

Soon after he finished speaking, there was a noise outside.

"I want to go to Yuanling County. I would like to ask all the good men to give me a ride. I will reward you handsomely." It was the woman in red who jumped directly onto the boat.

"The boat is chartered by the Taoist priest upstairs; we have no say in this. Girl, please leave quickly. The Taoist priest said you can't get on the boat." The boatman lamented and advised.

"Clang!" The woman in red took out a gold ingot and threw it on the ground.

She held a sword in one hand, her eyebrows raised: "I have booked this boat now. One gold ingot is enough. Let the Taoist get off the boat."

“This... but the Taoist priest has already reserved it..." The boatman looked embarrassed.

Before she finished her words, the woman in red took out another gold ingot and threw it onto the boat with a clang.

"Then...then let us go and tell the Taoist priest first." The boatmen looked at each other, and none of them could hold back the greed in their eyes.

Those were two gold ingots; enough to keep a dozen or so sailors sailing for ten years.

Moreover, he drove away the young Taoist priest.

When we get to a place where the water is fast and the road is dangerous, we will first... kill this beautiful woman and throw her body into the river. Maybe we can get more gold ingots.

The captain, who was of burly build and had a simple and honest face, stared at the woman's back with a fierce look in his eyes.

I was just about to tell Ji Yuan to get off the boat.

But at this time, the woman waved her hand and said, "No need, after all, this is the boat that was chartered first. I was just saying that out of anger."

"There is no village in front of us, and no shop behind us. If we drive him off the boat, where can he stay? You should return the money to him and take him back to where I am going."

As she spoke, the woman glanced upstairs with a cunning look in her eyes. She could sense the faint aura of magical power in the boat.

"Well... okay." The captain lowered his head with a fierce look in his eyes.

"No need! Pull the boat to the shore. I calculated today that taking the water route will be disadvantageous to me, so I won't take the water route." Ji Yuan's voice came from the second floor.

Two chapters, 6,000 words; please read on, please vote, please keep the heat up!!! Ji Yuan is about to have a generation and a Taoist name, you can guess what Ji Yuan's Taoist name is.
