Beichen Sword Sect's Headmaster's Secret Records

Chapter 42: Dharma Transmission
After the Beichen Sword Sect's disciples have successfully established their foundation and refined the sword seed, they must forge the sword embryo.

This stage is commonly known as the stage of forming the elixir.

If it is called according to the ancient Taoist method of Xuanmen, it is the so-called threshold of entering the stage of refining Qi and becoming a god.

Therefore, laying the foundation is just like a carp leaping over the dragon gate. Only after taking this step can the mortal carp finally transform into a dragon.

This is to reach the golden elixir realm that people often say, 'Once I swallow a golden elixir, my life will no longer be controlled by God.'

In fact, speaking from the principle alone, Dan formation is not much different from foundation building. Both involve absorbing natural treasures in order to be reborn and become extraordinary.

Laying the foundation is equivalent to laying the foundation, and forming the elixir is equivalent to building a house. One is refining the elixir, and the other is forging the Taoist body. The amount of natural treasures and cultivation resources consumed are naturally thousands of times greater than before. The difficulty of reshaping the Taoist body and breaking through the realm is also greatly increased.

Take Tiedan as an example. In the stage of refining essence into qi, all kinds of gold and iron were refined into Shengang true qi, and the "Shengang Refining Qi and Forging Sword Technique" was used to forge the sword in the abdomen, and finally forged into the Shengang sword embryo. Now that the elixir is formed, not only the tip of the sword in the abdomen needs to be forged, but also the Taoist body and Taoist body need to be shaped into the sword spine, sword body and sword sheath, all in one go.

It would be best if that kind of natural Tao seed, the son of luck, could succeed in one go, break through the shackles, and form a golden elixir.

However, if one lacks qualifications, resources, and luck and fails to make a breakthrough, the capacity of the Qi orifice in one's foundation-building body is limited and cannot accommodate the vast amount of true Qi.

All those rare treasures that had been found with great difficulty were wasted at once, and the spiritual energy would soon disperse back into the world, and one would have to start all over again.

The people in the Immortal Palace don't care. If you fail, try again. I am rich! I have the livestock in the world to support me! What else do I need?
Tie it! If it doesn't work once, try again! Practice makes perfect, and you'll get it right!
Compared to most of the casual practitioners who have no master to guide them and can only rely on ignorance to cultivate, Xuanmen is slightly better, but not much better.

With the guidance of the master, the oral transmission of the secret method, and the exchange of experience in forming the elixir, the success rate can be increased to some extent. However, resources are indeed limited, so we can only carefully select and strive for excellence, and select the best Taoists with the best qualifications and luck to focus on training.

As for Yue Peng and Zhou Feng, who were inferior in aptitude and could not earn enough resources for cultivation, the outer mountain disciples were stuck at the peak of the foundation-building stage for many years and could not make any progress. The only thing they could do was to wander around the martial arts world, gain experience, fight and kill, and compete for opportunities.

You have to collect your own materials and earn your own golden elixir.

If you can't get it no matter how hard you try, then you will end up fighting and dying.

Seeking the truth is so difficult...

"In the morning I watch the Taibai star, in the evening I look at the shadow of Changgeng, and I look at this divine sword diagram to forge my Jiuyao sword.

This "Nine-Star Sword Scripture. Shengang Divine Sword" is the true teaching of my sword sect, a method for refining qi and transforming into a spirit.

You can use the "Qi Refining and Sword Forging Technique" to refine the Shengang sword embryo, forge the Taibai sword embryo, and observe the stars to forge the sword.

From the sword embryo, sword infant, sword god, sword heart, one realm after another, I practiced all the way up until I reached the spirit transformation realm, when man and sword became one, the Tao was opened. "

In addition to the sect's expenses, Chen Huzi now has to plunder elixirs for his disciples' treatment and healing, so he is often not in the mountains.

The eldest senior brother is also gone, and usually when Tiedan helps change the medicine, Zhou Feng lectures him and teaches him how to practice.

In fact, the Beichen Sword Sect's skills are not that complicated. Strictly speaking, it is just a part about refining Qi, a part about forging swords, and that's it...

Well, I've given you the sword, go out and kill someone...

"That's not the case. There are still other secret methods... cough, cough, cough..."

Zhou Feng endured the pain, drank a mouthful of medicine, regained his strength and said,

"This sword-making sword manual is naturally available to all disciples of our Sword Sect, whether they are from the inner or outer sects, or from our own or outer sects. After all, even if one dies, as long as the sword embryo is forged, there is a method to dissolve the weapon, and it can also be used to open a furnace and forge swords.

However, the sword fighting techniques, various sword tactics, sword techniques, sword moves and sword formations, the tricks of transforming sword light into shadow, the secret formulas of alchemy and sword forging, etc., are only taught by the direct descendants of the mountain.

We are from outside the mountain. Only when you become a Sword Infant Immortal, do things for the mountain, make contributions, or curry favor with others and become relatives and become one of them, can you receive the reward and instruction from the Sword Master.

Our master conquered for the sect, developed Guangxia Mountain, and guarded the sword-making furnace, so he was able to pass on the sword-controlling method and the flying sword magic weapon."

Tiedan is strange.
"Why not pass it on all at once? Why do we need to distinguish between inside and outside?"

Zhou Feng smiled bitterly and took another sip of the medicine. "Who in this world doesn't distinguish between relatives and strangers? You have cultivated a lot of skills, magic weapons, and various secrets, of course you should give priority to passing them on to your relatives and descendants. The Demon Palace has fallen into what it is today, isn't it just the simple principle of 'relationship'?

If it weren't for this "Sword Forging Art", which is so dangerous and difficult to practice, but if it can be practiced, the benefits are huge, how could such a magical skill fall into the hands of people like us?

Of course, our Sword Sect is indeed powerful and famous for its magical powers, which makes people plot against us.

The Demon Palace and the Demon Cult wanted to destroy me, but they didn't have the ability to do so, so they often attacked my disciples, tortured them, searched their souls, and forced me to learn the true teachings of my Sword Sect. Even my fellow Taoists would occasionally send some reincarnated ghosts to steal the secrets of my Sword Sect.

Therefore, over the years, the rules of this mountain have become more and more numerous. Many of the Nine Peaks Sword Masters only accept their own relatives and reincarnated disciples as disciples. They dare not easily pass on the secret swords, for fear that outsiders will discover their secret skills. Even the position of the head of our Sword Sect has only been passed down for many generations among the four Doukui, Tianshu, Tianxuan, Tianji, and Tianquan Sword Masters. Even the Sword Masters who have transformed into gods are not qualified.

So according to the rules, even the complete version of "Nine-Star Divine Sword" and "The Art of Controlling the Sword" should not be passed down unless one reaches the level of Sword Infant.

But our master doesn't care about these things. He usually has to do things for the mountain people and doesn't have that much time. He just took apart a sutra and threw it to us, so we can study it slowly."

"There are only two sets of skills, and some are passing on some skills, which is really troublesome..."

Tiedan was also helpless.

Ordinary people would be very satisfied to obtain this true scripture, and would study it day and night and practice it hard every day. But for someone with extraordinary talent like him, it felt very...boring.

During this month, Tiedan had memorized "Sword Forging Technique", "Sword Controlling Technique" and "Nine-Star Sword Sutra" by heart. He learned Taibai Sword Shadow in one go, and it wasn't difficult to forge the sword embryo either.

Now he had to temper his sword energy and sharpen his sword every day. He also refined the golden dragon fragments he had picked up from the Shi family, and the Shengang sword embryo had begun to take shape.

In this way, he would watch the stars and forge swords in the morning and evening, and kill monsters and collect elixirs all over the mountains and plains during the day and night. The "Blood Jade Merit" was even more domineering, relying on the nourishment of many beast meats, monster elixirs, essences and blood, to reverse the flow of Qi and blood, strengthen the body and bones, and make Tiedan's height soar, and his body became stronger at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Now Tiedan feels that he has rested enough and is ready to fight again and avenge Senior Brother Yue.

What? Who are you seeking revenge on?

In the final analysis, it’s just that group of people from Dui Kingdom and Jiuning Mountain. Just kill them all.

Of course, Tiedan didn't get too excited yet. After all, his fellow apprentice was still paralyzed here and needed someone to take care of him.

Moreover, after fighting with the previous envoy, Tiedan understood very well that if he were to go against those mages who were equipped with magical weapons, talismans, elixirs, divine beasts, thugs and guardians, and who were truly practicing internal alchemy, he would be in great danger with his limited ability.

After all, although techniques like Shengang Sword Qi and Taibai Sword Shadow are powerful, he can't use them more than a few times with his current level of cultivation. And if others are prepared for his sword-controlling technique in advance, 70% of his ability will be reduced.

Although you are not inferior to the Demon Palace in a one-on-one fight, the Demon Palace never fights you one-on-one, which is very embarrassing...

Therefore, if you want to take revenge, it is better to learn some powerful tricks and get some handy magic weapons.

It’s a pity that Zhou Feng is only in the foundation-building stage and can’t teach Tiedan any new skills. He is also a pauper and has no good things.

"You have extraordinary aptitude. With time, your achievements will far surpass ours. You only need to work hard to polish it into a sword embryo. You can go anywhere in the world. Why rush?

I don't have anything to teach you. You have learned the White Tiger Leaping over the Stream. This book of sword techniques called "Five Tigers Breaking the Door" also contains some other techniques and routines. You can take a look at it.

Oh, there is also a book called "Threading the Needle Sword Technique" by Senior Brother Yue. It is not a sword technique, but is used by Benshan to train his disciples to master the accuracy of swordsmanship. Take it and have a look at it."

"Thank you, Senior Brother..."

"vomit--!"

Well, Xiaoliu next door vomited again. He had exhausted his blood and energy, and his body was too weak. He couldn't digest and absorb the demon pills that were injected into him. I'm afraid he couldn't practice the extremely dangerous Blood Jade Skill that almost killed Tiedan...

So Tiedan had to suppress his murderous intent, helped Zhou Feng back to lie on the couch, and then went to help Xiaoliu wipe his body and boil medicine.
