If you don't give up, I'd like to be your adoptive father.

Chapter 854: No regrets for success, regret is useless

"Teacher, Bailong is still sinking at the bottom of the water!" Xi Juan shouted.

"Alas, Zhao Juhua's vital parts were severely damaged and she can't be saved. This is her fate and we can't do anything about it." Xiao Yu sighed.

Zhao Juhua had fled all the way here, she didn't just encounter the crocodile here.

They fought for dozens of miles, and Zhao Juhua was injured and caught up and bitten. Half of her heart was bitten off. There was no way she could be saved.

"Where is our master?" Xi Juan asked.

"My fellow Taoist master has been seriously injured. He should be landing in a nearby village or county town to recuperate. Let's ignore him.

If you didn't die then, you won't die later.

This is the Great Qin court playing the "Game of Thrones" with the Ao clan Dragon King, let's not get involved." Xiao Yu said.

Xi Juan was very smart. He was stunned for a moment before he reacted and asked in surprise, "Could it be that Lulong's second uncle is Lord Hebo?"

"Ah, you reckless monkey, you dare to kill He Bo's nephew, do you want to live?" The widow was shocked, scared and angry.

Xi Juan stiffened his neck and shouted, "Mom, you saw that the Zhangshui River God who was killed by the alligator dragon was also a dragon king!

The crocodile also created huge waves, flooding the villages on both sides of the river.

I don’t know how many people were drowned just now!

Now that we have seen it, how can we let it do whatever it wants?"

"I saw the crocodile biting the white dragon, and I also saw the flood. Even if you swam over to rescue the drowning people, I wouldn't say anything.

But you picked up a hatchet and rushed over to kill the dragon. Juan'er, didn't you hear the curse of the crocodile ghost when it left? Its second uncle wants to seek revenge on you. "

The widow sighed and said, "The Queen Mother was not happy with He Bo's holding of the Grand River Banquet, so she sent the white dragon raised by the court to take the position of the river god of Zhangshui.

The Dragon King was dissatisfied with the imperial court for sending people to take away his throne, so he deliberately let the crocodile dragon disguise itself as a wild monster, and bit the white dragon to death in public that day.

This is a fight between the Queen Mother and the Dragon King. Why do you, a country bumpkin, get involved?"

The widow was just uneducated, but like her son, she was very smart and had some intelligence.

Just by listening to Fairy Feiyu telling the story of Hebo's feast at the Daze Banquet and overhearing the conversation between Wuyazi and his master Qin, he had already figured out the root cause of the Zhangshui incident.

Xiao Yu said, "Luo Long's second uncle should not be He Bo. After all, Zhao Juhua is a legitimate god appointed by the Queen Mother to heaven and earth. The Dragon Kings of the Four Seas would not do it so obviously."

The widow said worriedly, "But the crocodile dragon is still Lord Hebo's man. Feiyu Fairy is such a powerful fairy, but the Dragon King has turned black into white and brought a complaint against her.

My daughter Juan is from a poor family and has a lowly fate. If she is targeted by the Dragon King, it would not be surprising if she were to be seduced by a yaksha one night and taken to the underworld to be beaten to death. "

Xiao Yu smiled and said, "Not really, not really! It's true that the Xi family is poor, but they are not cheap at all.

Those with virtue are noble, and the higher the virtue, the more noble the person.

Besides, Juan'er didn't kill the crocodile for her own selfish reasons.

He wanted to save the white dragon and the people on both sides of the river who were suffering from the disaster. He must have gained some merit by slaying the dragon today!"

——If there is a hidden trick, why are you just standing there and not taking any action?
The widow still felt a little resentful in her heart.

It is obvious that the teacher has more powerful skills, like a banished immortal, but he has been watching from the side. Seeing the eleven-year-old disciple slaying the dragon with a hatchet. Even if he is standing far away and throwing a few thunders to bombard the crocodile, it is also a show of thoughtfulness!

Xiaoyu didn't know what she was thinking, and even if she knew, she wouldn't care.

She really doesn't want to make any assumptions now.

After comforting the widow, Xiaoyu turned his attention to Xi Juan.

"How did you feel when you killed the alligator just now?"

Xi Juan became excited and said, "The Yellow River Sword Art that Fairy Feiyu gave me is indeed a top-notch martial art.

I have exerted so much sword energy, but the great river of true energy is still endless, and the sea of ​​energy in my dantian is still as full as before.

As long as I stand on the river, the river will be like my meridian, providing me with an endless supply of pure water spiritual power.

Now I can be sure that as long as I am in the rivers, lakes and seas, I will never lack true energy. "

Xiao Yu nodded slightly and said, “This is indeed the characteristic of the Great River’s Qi, which can draw the spiritual energy of heaven and earth from the water veins.

You don't need to eat dragon fish anymore.

As long as you face the river and refine your energy every day, or jump into the river to swim, you can absorb the spiritual essence to temper your body.

But the sword energy of the river is not sharp. How come you can use the move 'Nine Bends of the Yellow River' to almost cut the crocodile into eel sections, and use an ordinary sword energy move to penetrate a crocodile that is more than 20 feet long?
The last two moves, I feel like you've exhausted your energy.

You have energy, but no strength, right?"

"Well, I felt a little exhausted at the end." Xi Juan thought for a moment and said hesitantly: "I don't know why, I'm just not afraid of dragons by nature——"

The widow immediately scolded him, "You are talking nonsense again! Apart from the last Daze Feast and this time when Master released the dragon, when have you ever seen a real dragon? How do you know you are not afraid of dragons?

Don't think that you are invincible just because you killed a small crocodile and look down on all real dragons.

Is Feiyu Fairy powerful? She is also afraid of Lord Hebo!

Your swordsmanship was learned from Fairy Feiyu, so it is definitely not even one ten-thousandth as good as Fairy Feiyu's."

Xi Juan didn't dare to talk back to me, but still said tactfully: "I'm not arrogant, I just feel that dragons are nothing to be afraid of. Don't worry, mother, I will never provoke the Dragon King for no reason.

This time the boy acted rashly in order to save Bailong and the people who fell into the water!

White Dragon Zhao Juhua is also from the Ao clan. How cruel! He even wants to slaughter his own bloodline."

At the end, he couldn't help but frown, with a hint of disgust in his eyes, "Lord He Bo, you are so cruel and tyrannical!

And there is the Emperor of Heaven.

He Bo falsely accused Lord Yu, and the evidence was irrefutable. The Water Deity Star Lord also said that he would conduct a fair trial and submit the results of the trial to the Emperor of Heaven.

Why did the Emperor of Heaven do nothing and allow He Bo to continue to harm people?"

The widow angrily picked up a bamboo pole and hit her son's head hard, shouting, "Are you suffering from a brain storm? How dare you slander Lord Hebo and His Majesty the Emperor of Heaven?"

Xiaoyu looked carefully at Xi Juan and the widow's expressions, and found that their fortunes had not been diminished in the slightest.

"Juan'er, you are a mortal after all. He Bo and the Emperor of Heaven are not topics we should discuss. You only talked about how the sharp sword energy came from when you killed the crocodile dragon. But what innate magical power did you activate?"

"I really feel like I'm not afraid of dragons by nature. Facing the crocodile dragon, the sword energy of the Great River in my body is particularly smooth. Sword energy..." Xi Juan scratched his head, "This is also the first time I use the sword energy of the Great River to fight an enemy. I don't quite understand it."

"Have you ever taken the Tongshen Pill?" Xiaoyu asked.

"I know about the Tongshen Pill, but I have never eaten it. I heard from the village elders that the Hu people have been knocking on the gates every year, and the court has no money. For several years in a row, no one from the Taoist Palace has come to our Lu County to look for Taoist seeds and test supernatural powers."

After Xi Juan finished speaking, she looked at Xiao Yu with hopeful eyes, "Teacher, do you really think that your disciple has innate magical powers?"

"Well, it is indeed possible. Next time when I pass by the provincial capital, I will go to the big pharmacy in the city to see if I can buy a Tongshen Pill.

If we can’t buy it, we can pick a few herbs in the mountains and make it ourselves.” Xiao Yu said.

"Teacher, can you make the elixir of immortality?" Xi Juan asked in surprise.

“No, but the Tongshen Pill is not a high-level elixir, so it is not difficult to learn.”

Two days later, when passing by Guantao, Xiaoyu actually helped Xi Juan buy a Tongshen Pill.

It only cost thirty taels of silver, which was not expensive. But if the imperial court wanted to distribute the Tongshen Pill for free throughout Shenzhou as it did in the past, it would be a horrific financial expenditure.

It is the same style as the Tongshen Pill that Xiaoyu took back then, a small red pill the size of a grain of rice.

It had the same effect as when Xiaoyu took the Tongshen Pill: Xi Juan's skin turned red and hot, and her body twitched like she had epilepsy.

Just by looking at his reaction, Xiaoyu was immediately certain that this guy really had innate supernatural powers, and they were powerful physical powers.

"Master, is Juan'er having epilepsy?" the widow asked nervously.

"He is awakening his natural talent—Fuck~"

Before she finished her words, Xi Juan seemed to have exploded a small universe. With his body as the center, a circle of golden air waves burst out in all directions, and the shadow of a green dragon hovered above his head.

The golden air wave is the energy of Gengjin, but its impact is not strong.

Not to mention Xiaoyu, even the widow wouldn't be knocked over by the air wave.

The reason why Xiaoyu lost his composure and even shouted "Fuck" was because the quality of the golden energy was too high.

Far beyond ordinary fairy spirit!

She killed the eight great immortals from the East, including two Xuanxian, in the Daze Dragon Palace. Their immortal energy was not as pure and powerful as the Gengjin energy in Xi Juan.

"This is the celestial bone, it must be the celestial bone!"

"Om~~"

Before she could exclaim, another stream of pure Gengjin immortal energy burst out from Xi Juan.

This time, a red bird was hovering above his head.

"This, is this a double magical power? No, that's not right, they are both Gengjin Qi, a great magical power and a great immortal bone formed by the fusion of two kinds of spiritual inspiration?" Xiao Yu was confused.

Then a third golden wave spread out from his body.

This time, the shadow of a white tiger appeared in the "weather" above his head.

Xiao Yu was stunned, waiting quietly for the fourth golden air wave.

When the fourth golden air wave appeared and the shadow of Xuanwu appeared above Xi Juan's head, an expression of "as expected" appeared on her face.

Azure Dragon on the left, White Tiger on the right, Vermillion Bird in front and Black Tortoise behind, these are the four sacred beasts!
The vision did not last long.

Soon Xi Juan opened his eyes and said excitedly: "Teacher, I really have innate magical powers. I can sense it."

Xiaoyu asked, "How do you feel?"

Xi Juan said: "After taking the Tongshen Pill, a hot current burst out from the throat, sank into the body, and flowed into the limbs and bones. I felt it... I felt it, but it's hard to explain."

Xiao Yu said, "Take off your shirt and let me take a look."

It was midsummer and the weather was hot. If Xi Juan had not been worried about getting his skin sunburned from pulling the cart under the sun, he would have preferred to go shirtless all day.

Now he was only wearing a single piece of clothing, which he easily took off after unbuckling his belt.

His skin was dark, but smooth and delicate, and could be seen clearly without any marks of the four symbols.

The naked eye couldn't see anything, so Xiaoyu learned from the Taoist Qingsong and directly injected a stream of spiritual energy into his body.

When the spiritual energy circulated around his body, she understood everything.

"It's a pity for you." Xiaoyu sighed with regret.

"What a pity?" Xi Juan looked puzzled.

"Do you know what magical power you have awakened?" Xiaoyu asked.

Xi Juan swung a sword towards the ground, and the chopsticks became longer and wider, "Puchi~~"

A deep sword mark was left on the ground.

Ordinary people cannot see the bottom of the sword mark with the naked eye.

Xiaoyu took a glance and it was at least three feet deep!
"Very sharp sword energy! I was right earlier. Your Dahe sword energy is too sharp."

Xi Juan asked curiously, "Teacher, do you know what kind of magical power this is? I am a shallow-minded disciple. I only know that this magical power can strengthen the sword energy, but I don't know where it comes from."

"Alas, this is not some kind of innate magical power, this is an immortal bone! It is a super large immortal bone that contains four kinds of spiritual power.

Other people's sacrum is only a small section, but your sacrum is the spine plus the limbs, so scary!" Xiao Yu's face was full of amazement and regret.

"It's actually the bones of an immortal," the widow said with great joy, "Can my Juan'er practice immortal arts like the Taoist priest and ascend to heaven in broad daylight?"

"I am not even qualified to accept Juan'er as my disciple. He is too talented and has the qualifications to become a celestial being.

I only have the skills to become a scattered immortal, and I cannot teach others to become a celestial immortal.

Unfortunately, Juan'er has already condensed the Human Immortal Yuandan and has become a Human Immortal." Xiao Yu sighed.

"Ah, after condensing the Human Immortal Pill, there is no way to become an immortal?" The widow shouted excitedly.

Xiao Yu looked at Xi Juan who was in a low mood and said, "Now you understand why I said when we first met that it was not a good thing for the dog demon to give you the secret book?
No regrets in forming the elixir!

As long as you don't condense the Human Immortal Yuan Dan, everything is possible.

Once the five immortals of 'Heaven, Earth, Man, Ghost and God' have chosen a path and achieved any one of them, it will be difficult for them to change to another immortal path in this lifetime."

Xi Juan said in a hoarse voice: "If you have immortal bones, you can definitely become a celestial immortal?"

"No, having immortal bones is only one of the basic conditions to become a celestial immortal, it's a threshold." Xiao Yu said.

After a long silence, Xi Juan said in a hoarse voice: "Since God wants me to be a human immortal, I can only accept it."

Xiao Yu patted his shoulder and comforted him, "Everything has its own gains. Although you cannot cultivate immortality, you can accompany your mother and enjoy the happiness of family.

If you are really taken into the mountains by some immortal, it is very likely that you will part with your mother forever."

This is really just words of comfort.

With such a large piece of immortal bone in my body, even if I stay at home to accompany my mother and see her to the end of her life, or even get married and have children myself, it probably won’t be too late to practice Taoism when I’m in my sixties or seventies.

The efficiency of refining Qi in the immortal bones is so high that it does not take too long to slowly hone the internal strength.

As a mortal, it is not a waste of time to temper your mind in the mundane world.

People in their seventies or eighties who start cultivating immortality may be more efficient than young people.

But Xi Juan has already formed the immortal elixir, so what else can he do if he doesn't just comfort him with empty words?

He formed a death pill, and the death pill could not bring life.

Yuandan is the crystallization of the dual cultivation of sex and life. It is both the source of essence and energy and the root of the soul.

There is no way to demolish it and rebuild it. Once it is demolished, no one will survive.

Warriors whose Yuan Dan is damaged will often quickly lose their lifespan and die early.

For example, Lei Zhen, the leader of the Tianmen Society at that time, simply failed to condense the Yuandan, but the pill did not break completely.
