Chapter 412: Refining Qi into Spirit and Dispersing Spirit into Qi

Xiaoyu didn't know that the old monk had returned to Green Lotus Cottage.

The only people who talked to the old monk were Zhao Zhen and a servant who delivered the message. The others didn't care about the old monk at all, nor had they ever cared about him.

Just when Xiaoyu left Green Lotus Cottage, the old monk "happened" to return, had a conversation with Zhao Zhen, and was beheaded on the spot. The old monk would definitely not leave his body at the scene.

Zhao Zhen also did not mention to others the old monk's advice to him to "lay down the butcher knife and turn back."

This is not something to be proud of.

Moreover, he only regarded the old monk as a pedantic person and did not take him seriously.

He is now completely focused on killing Yu Fengxian.

Xiaoyu judged that he was tricked by the old monk based on his wisdom and experience.

She didn't know the specific process, but she directly deduced the final result from a few things that she was 100% sure of.

One of the confirmed events is that the old monk must kill Zhao Zhen and destroy the Seven Arrows Book.

The second confirmed event is that Zhao Zhen has disappeared without a trace, and her spiritual sense is immediately triggered, and she feels that he is targeting her.

If you want to target her and avoid her, what else can you do except the Seven Arrows Book?
The third certain event is that once Zhao Zhen attacks her, even if she does have some hopes for the Qin Dynasty, she will definitely draw her sword and kill him.

So, the final result is clear: the old monk uses her as a knife to kill Zhao Zhen.

"There's no need to look for Zhao Zhen. Just go home and wait patiently for Zhao Zhen to cast the spell, and quietly feel the power of the Seven Arrows Book!"

After Xiaoyu understood everything clearly, she did not go to Yonghe Palace to find Li Rongji, nor did she search for Zhao Zhen everywhere.

The old monk wanted her to test the law with her own body, and it would be safest for her to accept it obediently.

She believed that the old monk would not really take her life.

Instead, she could take this opportunity to deduce the method of cracking Jiang Taigong's version of the Seven Arrows Book.

With this realization, Xiaoyu went straight back to Xiaojingxuan and locked the gate.

He burned incense and washed his hands, then bowed to the ceramic statue of the Three Pure Ones, lit a stick of incense, and sat on the cushion, quietly waiting for the night to fall.

Xiaoqiang would jump out from the ghost path from time to time, look at her from a distance, and run around.

After making sure that there were no dangerous creatures lurking nearby, it entered the ghost path and wandered to the Wang family behind.

This is also the reason why Xiaoyu chose Xiaojingxuan.

She needed Xiaoqiang to protect her, but she also wanted Xiaoqiang to continue to perform the job of taking care of Sister Cui'er.

At three o'clock in the morning, Xiaoyu suddenly felt a cold wind blowing on him.

The doors and windows were clearly closed tightly, but there was still a cold wind blowing in from outside.

Xiaoyu's heart was touched, and she immediately knew that what was supposed to come had finally come.

But she couldn't help shivering a few times as the cold wind blew.

There was a chill in her body as if the heat was being rapidly drained away, yet inside she was feeling extremely hot and uncomfortable.

It was exactly like what Zhao Zhen said last night: his heart was like a raging fire, his mind was like frying oil, he was emotionless and confused, and in a daze.

She knew that she must have been tricked, but her mind was confused and anxious, and she couldn't concentrate on thinking about the matter, how to deal with it, how to solve it. It was even difficult for her to form any thoughts related to the "Seven Arrows Book" in her mind.

She was just feeling upset inside, unwilling and unable to think.

"The Seven Arrows Book is truly extraordinary!"

Xiaoyu sighed inwardly and immediately activated the secret medical technique to apply a DeBuff to his body.

And gradually strengthen the DeBuff until she can just tie with Zhao Zhen under "normal" conditions.

The so-called "normal situation" only means that there is no external curse such as the Seven Arrows Book.

This does not include the medical DeBuff that she controls herself.

In this case, if one wants to kill Zhao Zhen by force, there are two options: first, find Zhao Zhen's flaws and deduce the method to restrain his swordsmanship and supernatural powers; second, remove the curse on her body and let her return to "normal" state.

If Xiaoyu were allowed to choose, she would definitely choose the second option.

However, her control over Zifu is only at the second stage, and she can only choose assassination, sudden attack, and forced killing.

It is impossible to directly determine the specific deduction path of the method of killing.

Xiaoyu can only continue to strengthen DeBuff!

As long as the DeBuff is strong enough to find flaws and restrain swordsmanship, they just can't defeat Zhao Zhen. Zifu has no other choice but to deduce the method of "removing the Seven Arrows Book and restoring the 'prime state'".

If Zhao Zhen is an ordinary person, Xiaoyu must use DeBuff to bring himself down to the level of an ordinary person.

This was almost impossible for her to do as she was reforging the "Pure Yang Supreme Sword Bone".

Forcibly debuffing her will damage her sword bone, which is not worth it.

Fortunately, Zhao Zhen himself is also very strong.

He is an "alien" who has cultivated "magic powers" that surpass immortal martial arts but cannot make him immortal.

He is proficient in swordsmanship and has mastered several powerful secret techniques. His strength is much stronger than that of ordinary immortals.

Moreover, before the third watch, Xiaoyu had deduced 23 versions of "methods to kill Zhao Zhen by force" by exploiting a bug.

The task of "killing Zhao Zhen" was carried out to the extreme.

When the third watch came and Xiaoyu felt that he was cursed by the Seven Arrows Book, Zifu directly started to deduced the "Method of Killing Zhao Zhen by Force Version 24.0".

The 24th generation's method of killing Zhao Zhen is to remove the negative state brought by the Seven Arrows Book.

"Oh, it's bad! The Seven Arrows Book is so powerful that it is difficult to complete it within seven days~~"

Once Zifu started to deduce, Xiaoyu not only did not feel relieved, but became panicked instead.

Because the speed is too slow.

Xiao Yu waited for an hour and calculated that it would take about ten years to crack Jiang Taigong's version of the Seven Arrows Book!

In ten years, her body turned to ashes.

"Taigong's beggar's version of the Seven Arrows is many times weaker than the original version. It still takes ten years.

How terrifying would the authentic Seven Arrows Book of Lu Ya Daojun be?"

After an hour of deduction, the result was disappointing, but Xiaoyu was no longer panicked.

She actually knew the way to crack the Seven Arrows Book: take away the scarecrow. It took her ten years to figure out the way to crack it, which was not to take away the scarecrow, but to fight hard!

Use your own soul to fight against the Seven Arrows Book.

Now she realized that she couldn't win the fight, so she immediately gave up her rebelliousness and compromised obediently.

"Xiao Qiang, come here and bring your dog treasure here as well."

When Xiaoqiang ran in through the ghost path and looked around, Xiaoyu waved to it.

"Master, what are you going to do?" Xiao Qiang trotted over with the jade bone bell in his mouth.

Xiaoyu had taken off the jade bone bell before, because it was a magic weapon that could increase her strength.

Not only was the jade bone bell thrown far away, but the Qiao Shi sword was also placed in the yard.

"Zhao Zhen used the Seven Arrows Book to plot against me. Help me steal the straw man from the altar."

Xiaoqiang knew her story and knew that she was fighting against the Seven Arrows Book.

Hearing her request, it was just a little confused, "Master, not only are you stronger than me, but your Skystep is superb and you can easily ward off ghosts and gods. Why don't you steal the straw man yourself?"

Xiao Yu said helplessly: "At first I thought I could steal it myself. Now that I have really been tricked, I realize that I took it for granted before.

The reed shed and the altar are not useless decorations.

They have their own set of forbidden spells. If a cursed person approaches, not only will he be unable to steal the straw man, but he will also be trapped in the reed shed, with his mind in a daze, unable to think at all, and his soul power will be lost faster. "

Because she couldn't steal the straw man on the altar by herself, the method Zifu gave her to break the curse was to directly resist it.

But if she had a magic weapon with her - the jade bone bell, she still couldn't steal the straw man, but she could arrange Xiaoqiang to steal it.

Uh, now the second stage of Zifu is so dull.

Compared with the sword bone that could be used freely, it was like an inanimate tool rather than a magical power that she could control independently.

"Master, where is the altar? I will help you steal the straw man right away." Xiaoqiang shouted.

Xiao Yu took the jade bone bell from its mouth and said, "You go in first. I'm going to send out my perception to find the approximate location of the altar."

Xiao Qiang doubted, "I don't have much experience, but I know that the Seven Arrows Book can kill the Golden Immortal, so it must be impossible for people to easily sense the location of the altar."

"The Seven Arrows Book in Zhao Zhen's hand is just a replica."

Those cursed by the Book of Seven Arrows have a fuzzy mind and worse perception than before. It is simply a pipe dream for them to want to find the location of the straw man.

But she has Zifu.

As Xiaoqiang got into the dog treasure, she hung the dog treasure bell around her waist, and the direction of deduction of "Da Mie Dad" was indeed changed.

She no longer had to use her own soul to resist the killing power of the Seven Arrows Book.

Instead, he looked for the location of the altar and asked Xiaoqiang to steal the straw man.

Soon, the night passed.

Xiaoyu did not leave Xiaojingxuan.

The deduction speed of "The Method of Finding Straw Man" is much faster than that of "The Book of Seven Arrows with Hard Head".

From the third watch of the first night to the end of the 60th hour of the second day (around : in the morning), it took almost eight or nine hours, and the completion rate was as high as %!

However, the "data from the Seven Arrows Book" that Xiaoyu could put into Zifu had been exhausted, and the deduction began to slow down.

Xiaoyu did not feel anxious for two reasons: one was that he was hit by the Seven Arrows Book, and his heart felt as if it was being fried in oil or roasted on fire, but his mind was in a confused state, without any emotion or thoughts, and his perception of time was very vague.

This is one of the most terrifying aspects of the Seven Arrows Book. You won’t even notice if you’ve been hit.

Another reason is that Xiaoyu sank into the North Sea (the deepest part of the sea of ​​​​mind) with the "Soul of Kunpeng", and has been comprehending and studying the deduced results. He is immersed in it, unable to extricate himself, and cannot feel the passage of time.

Previously, she had always believed that the Seven Arrows Book was an evil spell.

Zhao Zhen and others said so.

She also felt that this horrific curse technique had nothing to do with the Taiyi Xuanmen's orthodox teachings.

Later, an old monk who was suspected to be Lu Ya Taoist also called the Seven Arrows Book a "left-handed secret method" rather than the orthodox method of Taoism.

Now Xiaoyu feels that he is wrong, and everyone else is wrong too. Maybe the old monk is just pretending.

The Seven Arrows Book is the most formal "orthodox Dharma".

Its doctrines and principles are both majestic and upright, without any trace of "external evil forces".

The Seven Arrows Book is a book and a secret method. She doesn't know whether the materials used to make the book are extremely evil, but she is very sure that the principles of the Seven Arrows Book are absolutely "righteous".

Tao is born from nothingness and gives birth to Qi. One gives birth to two, two gives birth to three, and three gives birth to all things.

All tangible and intangible things in Pangu's world are essentially a kind of "qi" differentiated from the innate qi, or a combination of multiple "qi".

A person’s tangible body is Qi; a person’s intangible spirit is also Qi.

"Qi refining" cultivates both the vital energy in the body and the spiritual will in the soul.

It’s just that cultivating the vital energy in the body is relatively simple.

All techniques, whether it is immortal martial arts or immortal techniques, focus on cultivating the body's vital energy.

Want to strengthen your spiritual will through "refining qi"
It is difficult to find a method to refine the mind, so Xiaoyu can only create the magic eye method on his own.

The Demon Eye Technique does not directly use "Chi" to strengthen the spirit, but rather plunders the spirit of others.

Very evil.

The Seven Arrows Book of Taoist Master Lu Ya is even more weird. It is the opposite. It traces the soul of the cursed person back to its origin and turns it into "Qi".

Its effect is very strange, but its principle is completely the application of the basic principle of "the innate qi gives birth to all things".

The normal way of thinking is: since the soul also originates from the innate Qi, then if we find the "Qi" represented by the spiritual soul and absorb and utilize it, wouldn't it greatly increase the power of the soul?

This normal thinking logic will create a method to cultivate the mind.

Improving oneself through "refining qi" is the most authentic Taoist method of "refining qi into spirit".

Taoist Master Lu Ya, however, did the opposite: since the spirit and soul are also "qi", why not use spells to reverse the process of "refining qi into spirit"?

"Dispersing spirit and transforming it into energy" - returning the soul back into "spirit and energy" - is the basic principle of the Seven Arrows Book.

The principle is very righteous, but the effect is even more sinister than her magic eye technique.
