The ancestor is incompetent!

Chapter 100 The method of creating spiritual fire
In Wanmujie, the former bamboo house and courtyard has disappeared, replaced by a walled courtyard with mud walls and wood beams, and green vines covering one side of the wall.

There is a pond in the courtyard. The water is clear, lotus leaves are swaying, and fish are swimming in the water.

Beside the pool, Li Yuan, dressed in a natural green robe, sat cross-legged, guiding the rich spiritual power in the Ten Thousand Trees Realm to flow into his body, and through his magical powers, it was transformed into true energy and fell into his dantian.

On the small sky, drizzles were falling, and the transparent raindrops were rolling and dancing on the lotus leaves. A touch of lotus red appeared from the green leaves, gradually expanding and blooming into lotus flowers.

The fish jumped out of the water from time to time, even a foot high above the water surface, splashing waves.

Li Yuan, who had his eyes closed, slowly opened them. The rain suddenly stopped. He raised his hand to catch a drop of rain. The raindrops all over the sky were fixed in mid-air, like bright crystal beads, which were very beautiful.

He chuckled and flipped his hand. The drop of water in his palm rolled down, and the raindrops suspended in the air continued to fall.

Looking at the rainy pond in front of him, Li Yuan said to himself: "The third level of magical power is the fusion of souls. My soul is stronger than that of ordinary cultivators. After the fusion of souls, I have made some significant progress."

He practiced diligently for more than ten years and finally reached the third level. His supernatural powers were integrated with his spirit and soul. Even if his body did not exist, as long as he placed a trace of his supernatural powers in a bit of heavenly water, he could nourish his spirit and soul and be reborn.

So now, no one can completely kill Li Yuan below the seventh level.

But there will still be many people who can beat him.

After all, each has its own specialties in mental techniques and supernatural powers. His Qin Chunyu's strength lies in the soul, which is naturally more mysterious.

But in a fight, if several true practitioners of the same level come, they will still be defeated.

However, as his supernatural powers grew, he stopped practicing other techniques and focused on refining his supernatural powers. This was able to make up for his lack of magic skills. Now in a one-on-one fight, he was no longer a weak character who could be easily bullied.

"A third-level cultivator who is less than 200 years old may not be as fast as those who are born with natural talent or have a good fate, but his speed is still beyond the reach of ordinary people."

Li Yuan sat alone beside the pond, thinking a little distractedly. A large lotus fish in the pond jumped up with its tail and landed right in his arms.

He frowned, threw the fish back into the pond, patted his clothes, and sighed, "I don't eat fish."

Then he got up and went back to the yard. There was a weeping willow tree in the yard. Under the tree stood two puppets, one holding the four treasures of the study and the other holding Qingcha.

These puppets were all Li Yuan's practice works in his spare time. As his supernatural powers improved, he used them to imprint the spirituality of these puppets, allowing them to have instincts despite their lack of intelligence, and do simple things without thinking, just like a set program.

He lay down under the willow leaves as usual, and the boy-like puppet offered him fragrant tea.

Li Yuan reached out to take it, sipping the green tea while thinking about the next step of his practice.

The third realm is three times faster than the previous two realms because of the nourishment of the spirit of the Ten Thousand Trees Realm, which makes his soul stronger. It will take about twenty years to complete it.

After the third turn comes the fourth turn, which is a big hurdle, and requires drawing on the objects of heaven and earth to increase your supernatural powers.

The first three transformations are only about the magical skills and the amount of true energy of the body, while entering the fourth transformation is the stage of strengthening the magical powers.

And this fourth transformation is what triggers the first interaction between the heaven, earth and objects in the universe.

The fifth turn is to lead the objects on the ground, and the sixth turn is to lead the objects in the sky.

For example, Ren water in the sky is autumn dew and on the ground it is the vast ocean.

Speaking of the traditions of various waterways, Li Yuan always had doubts in his heart.

He opened the thick pages of the book he had compiled. There have always been many different opinions about the virtue of water in the world, and it is difficult to organize them.

In ancient Taoism, there were five water virtues: Ren, Gui, Hai, Zi, and Kan.

But now there are only four types, namely Ren, Gui, Zhen and Yuan water.

Obviously, the true water, the original water, and the magical powers that have been demonstrated to the world since ancient times have made it rank among the four water virtues in the world.

Ren water is the yang containing water, Gui water is the yin in nature, true water is adaptable and adaptable, and original water contains the beginning of life.

The disappeared water virtues of Kan, Hai and Zi seemed to have merged into the two virtues of Zhen and Yuan, but there was such a saying in the records of the ancestors of Qi Lingmen, and because it involved water virtue, he paid special attention to it.

The original words are: Ren water is strong and all other waters are suppressed. From now on, water flows easily and heavenly fire is always present.

Although this statement comes from a fragment of ancient text, Li Yuan thinks it makes sense. Renshui on earth is a vast lake, and the changes of other waters are probably all dependent on Renshui.

However, there seems to be some connection between the two virtues of water and fire. I am afraid that these virtues of water and fire are all related to the almighty True Lord Immortal!
These seem to have nothing to do with him, but in fact, if he really wants to seek the status in the unknown, then he has to be concerned about them.

At present, the image selection when breaking through the fourth turn is very critical.

When Ren water is strong and Gui water is hidden, both of these images are not desirable.

But most of the water virtues are closely related to these two, so we must be cautious.

Since the divine power is rain, it is natural to use an image that is compatible with rain. Many of the ancient Taoist traditions were left by predecessors, so naturally we know which way to go and how to go.

But the Yuan Waterway was shrouded in fog, so he had to explore it himself.

Li Yuan searched through ancient books but could not confirm which objects were suitable.

So he just tried them one by one and figured them out one by one.

In addition to considering matters concerning the Taoist tradition, he also needs to prepare in advance for the disasters he may encounter when he goes out to break through.

He must make more of the treasure scrolls, as this is his most effective means of attack and defense at present. After all, he has not yet refined a spiritual weapon.

The two spiritual weapons that had been obtained from the sect were also returned to the formation spirit. The other low-grade and medium-grade spiritual weapons were not very suitable for use, so it would be better to use magical powers.

Top-grade spiritual weapons are too rare, and top-grade spiritual weapons that correspond to the Taoist tradition are even harder to find. Only a high-level true cultivator can spend many years of hard work to cultivate a top-grade spiritual weapon that conforms to the Taoist tradition.

As for the best spiritual tools, they were the golden elixir methods. Like the Qingming Zhaoyun Lamp he had used, and the Red Emperor Arrow that the Tongshan Wang family had obtained from nowhere, once they were willing to sacrifice their lifespan or blood essence, they could exert earth-shattering power.

Li Yuan felt that he should find time to refine a spiritual weapon for his own destiny, but now he lacked spiritual objects of the virtue of water. Even if he had some spiritual wood available, he couldn't just use the spiritual wood to refine, otherwise it would not be a spiritual weapon of the virtue of water.

After thinking about it, he remembered something that he had somewhat forgotten.

Li Yuan came to the villa, and the spirit body puppet was still refining the Qingyou Gourd.

He picked up the gourd, which felt slightly heavy in his hand. It was obvious that it was filled with a lot of one-yuan heavy water.

The quality of this gourd is unknown. It is a spiritual object created by heaven and earth and has never been refined. It is also a treasure nurtured by the Yi wood spiritual material contaminated by the Kan water spirituality. It is quite good for refining spiritual tools.

This way, he would be busy. Drawing treasure scrolls, refining spiritual tools, advancing cultivation, and deducing images were all extremely time-consuming and energy-consuming tasks.

……

At the gate of Qiling Mountain, in a cave, Li Yuan was holding a row of jade slips and placing them on the table. He looked at the confused child in front of him and said, "Among the five techniques that your master has found for you, which one do you think is the most suitable?"

The little boy in front of him was exactly the baby with the heavenly spiritual roots who was born that year. Now, eight years have passed and he can read and write, distinguish stillness and open his meridians, and can practice martial arts.

Li Yuan stared at his disciple and couldn't help but sigh in his heart. He, who had cultivated for a whole new life, could barely reach this level when he was eight years old.

Practicing Qi-inducing is not the same as giving a mortal a set of exercises and letting him recite the mental methods and meditate to successfully refine Qi.

Before that, it requires a lot of effort and wisdom to embark on the path of cultivation before the age of twelve.

Usually, children between six and ten years old are taken into the mountains. They will be taught to read and write first, cultivate their character, and then learn medicine, usually to recognize hundreds of acupuncture points and meridians in the body. This step can stump many boys who go to the mountains, and most of them will often fail the assessment and have to repeat their studies for two or three years.

After that, disciples will teach them the basic breathing methods of cultivating immortals, such as quiet breathing, guiding the five senses, etc., and tell them all kinds of common sense in the world of cultivating immortals, as well as how to choose exercises.

After several years of training, these disciples are at least twelve years old, and their meridians and acupoints have become solid. They can start practicing Qi drawing, and there is no need to worry about damaging the meridians if they practice too early.

But his disciple in front of him had entered the mountain at the age of only six, and had learned all the content in a year and a half. He could even mobilize fire spiritual power to perform minor techniques without practicing any exercises!

With this kind of talent, once practiced, it would be a real leap forward. I'm afraid it won't be long before I, the master, will be surpassed.

Thinking of this, Li Yuan looked at his newly improved cultivation level, as well as the Thousand Souls Banner filled with dark energy in his dantian, and decided to speed up his cultivation.

Thinking about the present, Wang Qianlei's little face showed embarrassment, and he said in a childish voice: "Master, I feel that these skills are not very good."

Li Yuan frowned when he heard this, "The best Fire Virtue techniques in our sect are not to your liking?

But the Fire Virtue is not popular in the mountains, and it is indeed difficult to find other Fire Virtue techniques. I think the Great Elder will never pass on the family techniques to outsiders, let alone you. "

"Why me, especially?" Wang Qianlei asked puzzledly.

"Well, the Great Elder doesn't like my ghostly look, so naturally he also dislikes you." Li Yuan held his brows. It is not a good thing to have a disciple who is too smart and talented.

"Then why did you, Master, accept me to learn these Fire Virtue skills even though your skills are so eerie?" Wang Qianlei asked.

"Everything is about fate. Your great master was also a gentle and humble man, but he accepted a domineering disciple like me." Li Yuan's eyes turned and he took out a worn-out ancient book. "I didn't intend to give this ancient book to you, but since you don't like those ordinary skills, why don't you take a look at this one."

Upon hearing this, Wang Qianlei took the old book, opened it and saw four words written on it.

"The Spirit Fire Creation Technique?"

“I got this book from the storage bag of a monk I killed. It is very similar to the legendary method of practicing magic skills. It only reaches the realm of true cultivation and is not like the right way.

This method is to seize the fire essence of heaven and earth, breed various forms of fire spirits in the body, and seek to use these fire spirits to perform magical functions.

The key is to rely on the life fire of the living beings to nourish the fire spirit, which is very bloody and cruel. "Li Yuan roughly explained the mystery of this skill.

Wang Qianlei looked up at his tall and sinister master and said, "Master, I think this technique is not as brutal as yours."

Li Yuan frowned, "Why, you don't want to learn? Then forget it."

"I'll learn." Wang Qianlei hugged the old book tightly in his arms, "I'll fix this one!"

"Very good. My disciples, Li Yuan, are extraordinary. You study on your own for three days to experience the mysteries of the technique. After three days, I will personally teach you how to get started and draw in the Qi." Li Yuan gave him a few instructions and let him comprehend on his own.

Li Yuan had just sat down when a disciple from the outer courtyard came in and said, "Law Enforcement Elder, a disciple from Fufeng secretly stole nearly a thousand pieces of agarwood talisman paper and also passed on Fufeng's secret method. After being examined by Deacon Qifeng, he is sentenced to be imprisoned in the Death Cave dungeon for ten days..."

"Please send it to me." Li Yuan didn't even look at him. He just flicked his sleeves and collected the row of jade slips.

"Ah!" The disciple's heart trembled upon hearing this, and he trembled a little: "But...but this disciple is the descendant of the bloodline of the seventeenth generation ancestor."

"What? Do you want to be punished for him?" Li Yuan sat upright on the chair with his hands open on the side, feeling a sense of oppression coming towards him.

"Or, which of you deacons wants to take the blame for him?"

The disciple's legs suddenly went limp, and he hurriedly said, "Disciple dare not! Disciple dare not!"

"Humph, leaking the inheritance is a serious crime in the sect. Have you forgotten what the sect rules say?" Li Yuan sneered, "I said, enforce the sect rules without any deviation.

Since someone wants to protect this disciple, that is an even greater crime.

You don’t have to send anyone here, I’ll go get it myself.”

After that, a gust of cold wind blew by, and the chair was empty.

The disciple was so scared that he bowed and ran out without looking back. After all, this law enforcement elder was the most powerful person in the sect. In the past ten years, he had punished more than ten disciples who committed serious crimes. All of them had their souls extracted and refined into his own Thousand Soul Banner. He even did not let go of their corpses and refined them into corpse puppets.

On top of Qi Feng, several deacons looked at Wang Yong at the top with uneasiness in their hearts, and there was silence in the place.

Wang Yong looked very unhappy and said, "You are protecting Wang Qianzai so much, but he has committed such a serious crime, and the law enforcement elder is ruthless and impartial. You are not protecting him, but harming him!"

"Peak Master, he is, after all, a distant relative of our ancestor. Considering our ancestor's hard work for the mountain gate, we should..."

"Ah~"

A sudden crow's cry was heard, interrupting the conversation of everyone in the hall, and a black crow flew into the inner hall from outside.

The black crow flapped its wings, and Li Yuan walked out from the billowing black smoke. He turned his head slightly to look at the deacon and asked, "Or what?"

The deacon, who was met with his eyes, could no longer sit still in his chair and knelt on the ground, saying in fear: "Elder, spare me! Elder, spare me!"

The rest of the people also stood up and saluted, saying, "Greetings to the Law Enforcement Elder."

Seeing that he couldn't answer, Li Yuan looked at Wang Yong, raised his lips slightly, and said with a smile: "Nephew Wang Yong, don't worry. The criminal has been executed."

He waved his sleeves and a ball of black gas rolled out. It was Wang Qianzai, but now he had become a refined corpse. His face was hideous and his eyes were cloudy. He let out low roars, which made everyone in the hall tremble in their hearts.

"I said, you can talk about mercy outside the law. But when it comes to the inheritance of the sect's tradition, there will be no escape. Those thousands of talisman papers are not worth mentioning. The crime that deserves this is the private transmission of the secrets of Fufeng's talisman method.

Have all the deacons remembered this?"

The voice in the hall was trembling, and no one dared to look up. "Remember the elder's teachings."

"Ah~"

The sound of crows was heard, and the black smoke in the hall dissipated. A group of black crows flew into the sky, leaving only a crow feather slowly falling in the air.
