"Sister?"
Yan Wushuang walked out of the quiet room where he practiced, and saw that the courtyard was completely silent, with no one around. Then he looked at Xie Qingxue's room door open, and he thought of the weird atmosphere between Zheng Fa and Xie Qingxue before, and felt a little worried.
He can also see that Xie Qingxue's attitude towards Zheng Fa these days is unpredictable--
On the one hand, it seems that he cares about Zheng Fa very much and keeps reminding him to keep it secret.
On the other hand, when she mentioned Zheng Fa, she sounded angry and it was obvious that something unpleasant happened between them.
Thinking back to the siege that Senior Sister received on the forum before, Yan Wushuang is even more certain - Senior Sister has been wronged more than once at the Nine Mountains Realm, and now I am afraid that she is very dissatisfied with Zheng Fa. Now that I see it, I am afraid that Zheng Fa has caught some of her secrets...
He was taught by his senior sister since he was a child, but he also has a close friendship with Zheng Fa. Now he feels that he should be a little different between the two to avoid any grudges in the future.
Thinking of this, Yan Wushuang walked to the door of Xie Qingxue's room and looked around. The room was quieter, as if no one was inside, but Xie Qingxue was sitting on the couch with a thin book spread out in his hand.
She stared at the book, fascinated, the expression on her face changed:
Sometimes I suddenly realize that I seem to be moved by the sentence in the book.
Then he frowned again, as if he had encountered some difficulty.
Most of the time, I am meditating, and I don't know where my thoughts are going.
"Sister!"
Yan Wushuang shouted again, Xie Qingxue moved his head, but instead of looking up at him, his whole body was shaken, and a crazy vortex seemed to appear on his body, greedily absorbing the surrounding Spiritual Qi.
Senior Sister, has your cultivation improved?
Yan Wushuang didn't dare to disturb him and took two steps back, but he was extremely happy in his heart. At Senior Sister's level of cultivation, a little bit of progress would take endless years, but now he suddenly seemed to have gained something. He was naturally happy for Senior Sister.
As a result, he became even more curious about the books his senior sister was reading.
Seeing that the aura on the senior sister's body had disappeared in a flash and seemed to have stabilized, he walked gently to the senior sister's side and looked at the book. Directly above the cover of the book were written the two characters Immortal Way. At first glance, the font looked nothing special, but when he looked closer, he could see that the two characters were not a whole, but composed of small dense patterns.
Yan Wushuang runs Spirit Eye Technique, and the secrets in the characters are revealed one by one. It turns out that each stroke of each character is composed of dozens or even hundreds of basic Talisman Diagrams. However, the gaps between Talisman Diagrams are too small, and there is no difference at first glance.
Next to the two words "Immortal Way", there is another line of small characters. The handwriting of this word Yan Wushuang is very familiar - it was written by Zheng Fa.
This line of fine print is:
"Anything that you can do with accumulated strength will be invincible; anything that you can do with wisdom will be successful."
Yan Wushuang blinked his eyes, and suddenly felt a strange feeling in his heart, but he couldn't express it for a moment.
"Why are you here?"
He leaned too close, and a somewhat surprised question from Xie Qingxue suddenly came to his ears.
"..." Yan Wushuang was silent for a moment, wanting to say something, but Xie Qingxue waved his hand, as if he didn't think it was important why he was here, so he turned over a page and spread it out on the wooden square table.
This page is exactly the table of contents.
There are twelve articles in this issue of the catalog, the first of which is written by Zheng Fa and is called "A Preliminary Study on the Theory of the Cycle of Spiritual Materials".
This is almost the basic knowledge of Materials Studies today, so it is really appropriate to put it in the first article.
The second article is from Madam Xuanhua. She wrote an article "Pill Cauldron and the Legal Body: Key Points of Transformation of Pill Cauldron".
The knowledge involved in this article is also unique to the Nine Mountains Realm. Yan Wushuang was very interested after seeing the name.
The next ten articles were all written by other disciples, most of whom Yan Wushuang also knew, and their cultivation levels were not high. There was only one Golden Core Stage, and the rest were no more than Foundation Establishment.
"Alas..."
As he watched, he heard a long and long sigh coming from beside him. When he turned his head, he saw Xie Qingxue staring at the catalog blankly, still sighing unconsciously.
"Sister?"
This time, Xie Qingxue heard it.
"This is from Zheng Fa." She pointed at <Immortal Way>, took out the note, and handed it to Yan Wushuang.
Yan Wushuang read the sentence on the note and was a little confused, "What is the path Zheng Fa wants to take?"
"This is it."
Xie Qingxue stood up from the collapse, stood in front of the window, seemed to be looking at Zheng Fa's small courtyard, and said to him:
"You take a look first."
Yan Wushuang picked up <Immortal Way> and flipped through it briefly.
Just reading the first two pages, he knew what the book was about--
Zheng Fa wrote a very plain preface earlier, which serves as an introduction. The content is to introduce the book, including some provisions and prospects.
According to the introduction, this book is called a journal, which will be tentatively scheduled to be published every two months in the future. Articles will be included regardless of cultivation status, and only articles will be read.
Looking at the standards for articles, Zheng Fa also proposed four dimensions: innovation, academic value, influence, and logical argument, each with its own evaluation system.
Yan Wushuang couldn't fully understand it for a while.
After the introduction, the contents of this issue of <Immortal Way> are summarized: <Golden Core Engineering> special issue.
According to what Zheng Fa said, <Golden Core Engineering> is the project with the heaviest investment, the greatest achievements, and the largest number of talents since the establishment of the Nine Mountains Realm. The first issue of <Immortal Way> published various articles written by some outstanding students in the <Golden Core Engineering> project team.
Looking further down, Yan Wushuang will understand why the senior sister did not seem to read it with Divine Sense, but read it word for word.
Because it's too dry.
Cultivation Method, whom they had seen before, had many subtle words and secret words, and even expressed them as they wished.
The articles in <Immortal Way> seem to be in a different style. The sentences are rigid and boring.
The structure is even more monotonous, it seems to be abstract, keywords, introduction, main text, and conclusion, which makes it really boring to read.
But after reading one article, in retrospect, every sentence in it was very concise and unambiguous. If he had to find an adjective, it would be - accurate.
What this article is about is clear and clear upon reading it, and it is even particularly convincing. However, the argument is very detailed and requires a lot of thought. Sometimes it takes a long time to read one sentence.
Not only the articles by Zheng Fa, but also the two articles written by disciples of the Qi Refining Realm, made him think about it over and over again.
He knew why his senior sister asked him to read it first. Now when he looked at the small print next to the word <Immortal Way>, he had a deeper idea about the path Zheng Fa said about his own path.
Xie Qingxue spoke again, not sure whether she was talking to him or herself.
"When I first read <Immortal Way>, I felt that every article was very insightful, and some of the statements even solved the problems I have accumulated over the years."
Yan Wushuang had not yet responded, but his senior sister continued talking on her own, obviously not needing him to speak.
"I read the article about the research on the properties of spiritual materials for half an hour, four or five times, and I felt that my moral conduct had improved."
"The truth behind it is really fascinating to me."
"It even made my cultivation improve a bit."
He also knew that the article mentioned by Xie Qingxue was about exploring the properties of spiritual materials in each cycle based on the theory of spiritual material cycles.
The author of the article is a Foundation Establishment disciple of the Nine Mountains Sect.
This disciple is a bit of a thief. He studied Periodic Law of Spirit Materials, studied the spiritual materials recorded in the Nine Mountains classics one by one, classified them into metal, wood, water, fire, and earth, and then compared their properties. He also concluded many similar characteristics, and added many examples to Periodic Law of Spirit Materials.
This job doesn't even require much cultivation. It only relies on inspiration and carefulness, and it happens to be very useful, so I was selected into <Immortal Way> by Zheng Fa.
"Later I noticed the author's name." Xie Qingxue added, "If I remembered it well, he should be a Foundation Establishment monk?"
Yan Wushuang nodded, secretly wanting to pout, how could you remember it wrong with your Spirit Transformation brain?
"I hope I remember it wrong..." Xie Qingxue suddenly said, "I really can't believe that something written by a monk Foundation Establishment can make me feel that I have gained something."
This... is true!
At this moment, he could hear the shock, disbelief, and even frustration in the senior sister's tone.
Who is the senior sister?
The most talented disciples of the Tianhe Sect's generation are all famous among Five Sects of Xuanwei.
The cultivation base is Spirit Transformation.
Now I read an article written by monk Foundation Establishment, and I have gained some insights, even enlightenment!
This is too scary.
Yan Wushuang was also confused for a moment:
Is Tianhe Sect too useless, or is Nine Mountains Sect too strong?
Who is Five Sects of Xuanwei!
Xie Qingxue's voice reached his ears again:
"Am I, Tianhe Sect, not as talented as Nine Mountains Realm?"
"Or does Tianhe Sect not have as many classics as Nine Mountains Sect?"
"In other words, I, Tianhe, can't educate my disciples?"
Yan Wushuang remained silent. He could feel the reluctance in the senior sister's tone. In fact, he also had this idea. No matter how much he recognized Zheng Fa, as a disciple of the Tianhe Sect, he had been flattered since he was a child. He could win the admiration of everyone with just three words: Tianhe Sect.
Now, Patriarch Tianhe is no better than Zheng Fa, so he can accept it.
At least according to Zheng Fa, Patriarch Tianhe was first and he was a latecomer, so he would naturally know more than Patriarch Tianhe and his cultivation would be smoother.
But Tianhe Sect is not as good as Nine Mountains Sect, which is another story.
They are all sects of the same era, Tianhe Sect has accumulated more, and now Tianhe Sect is the first person in the new generation, but he was surprised by the article written by the Nine Mountains Sect, a disciple of Foundation Establishment.
His eyes fell on <Immortal Way> again. There are ten such disciples in this book.
I'm afraid there will be hundreds, tens of thousands, hundreds of millions in the future...
He could see the meaning of this, and he believed that his senior sister could see it even more.
Xie Qingxue was still looking at the yard of Zheng Fa, murmuring:
"He really took a different path... Whatever the wisdom of the people does, everything will be accomplished."
She paused briefly.
"Perhaps in the future, everyone in the Nine Mountains Realm, regardless of their cultivation level, or even a peddler, can learn from Immortal Way and contribute to Immortal Way?" Xie Qingxue seemed to think of the flying boat he saw before, and added, "Can also benefit from Immortal Way."
Yan Wushuang understood what the senior sister said.
The path Zheng Fa has taken is actually a new system:
Popularize Immortal Way education so that ordinary people can enjoy the benefits of Immortal Way, and use the wisdom of the public to conduct in-depth research on Immortal Way.
Forming a complete cycle, the development of Immortal Way will not abandon the common people at the bottom, and even wants to make use of the wisdom of the common people at the bottom.
As for the effect... Just read these articles on <Immortal Way> and see the reaction of your senior sister, wouldn't you know?
"I once saw a kind of acrobatics in the mortal world." Xie Qingxue murmured, "A group of people, some of them stood on the ground, others stood on their shoulders, one layer after another, and in the end the tallest person flew higher than the average ordinary warrior."
"The more people at the bottom, the higher up the people are. When the acrobatics are done, everyone can get money."
"Nine Mountains Realm, that's it."
Yan Wushuang pursed his lips and remembered what Zheng Fa said, "Zheng Fa once told me that he stood on the shoulders of giants..."
Xie Qingxue laughed when he heard this and said, "When the giants are no longer available in cultivation, he wants to use these people to build a lofty mountain, right?"
She smiled for a moment and then sighed, "He seems to be really capable."
At this moment, a golden sun suddenly appeared in the direction of the Zheng Fa yard she had been looking at. In the eyes of the two of them, this golden sun was like a rising sun, containing a majestic power that was ready to go.
They all know that this is the Golden Core of Zheng Fa, but this Golden Core is more powerful, more energetic, and more... intense than usual!
"Zheng Fa is about to break through?"
Yan Wushuang was stunned.
Xie Qingxue did not speak, but looked at Zheng Fa's Golden Core, pursed his lips.
Zheng Fa is indeed improving.
He has been concentrating on Golden Core for some time, and he has not relaxed in practice, and his accumulation has gradually deepened.
But compared with the rapid progress before, it is certainly not as good as before.
Today's progress is different. Xuanwei Common sense:
With the help of Xie Qingxue, they now understand the first four turns of <Nine-Turn Golden Core Method>, which is Yang Five Elements.
He had just refinished Material Particles in Creation Jade Disc, and finally made a circle of Five-Element Ring.
Five-Element Ring is 10%, and Creation Jade Disc is completely transformed. It contains five times more Spiritual Qi than before, and it is even more unstable and changing.
This is still a small change.
Spiritual Qi in Creation Jade Disc flows and is more rounded and smooth than before.
The abundance of Spiritual Qi brings greater storage space.
The rounder and smoother flow brings faster response speed - just like CPU replacement.
What surprised Zheng Fa even more was that the Nascent Soul villain in his Golden Core also made a move. He stretched out his hand and made a move towards Creation Jade Disc. The jade certificate flew into the villain's hands and was held in his arms, with Spiritual Qi flowing between the jade certificate and the villain.
Zheng Fa can feel that the molding speed of the Nascent Soul villain in his Golden Core is more than five times faster than before!
According to his previous estimates, he was still ten years away from Golden Core Completion, which was not too fast. After all, his Heavenly Dipper and Earthly Sha Qi was too thick, which slowed down the molding speed of his Nascent Soul.
This is normal. Cultivation naturally requires accumulation and accumulation.
But now that Creation Jade Disc has been refined again, it seems that it has naturally become an accelerator!
He was puzzled, and looked at the Creation Jade Disc in the villain's hand, and immediately discovered the clue, or the reason - Wood-Element Seed Talisman!
In the theory of Zheng Fa, Wood-Element Seed Talisman can shape a bond equivalent to the structure of DNA. Now Material Particles Five Elements in Creation Jade Disc are all available, and they all have Wood-Element Seed Talisman. They are all like DNA, deriving the ability to self-replicate!
It doesn't even need Zheng Fa Divine Sense to guide it. This Creation Jade Disc actually guides Golden Core to operate, refines Qi of Heavenly Dipper and Earthly Sha, condenses Material Particles, and grows by itself.
In this way, Zheng Fa's Nascent Soul villain will naturally also benefit.
This thing is a bit like... automatic cultivation?
Zheng Fa was excited, thinking that if the nine turns were perfect, Creation Jade Disc would be stronger and more effective?
In this way, the time it takes for him to condense Nascent Soul may not even take two years, or even be shortened to one year!
The changes in Creation Jade Disc cannot be seen clearly by the outside world.
However, Xie Qingxue and Yan Wushuang both felt the changes in Zheng Fa Golden Core's cultivation speed.
"This..." Feeling the rapidly growing Nascent Soul villain inside Golden Core, Yan Wushuang's face trembled, and he suddenly discovered a question, "If this continues, how long will it take for Zheng Fa to surpass me in cultivation?"
Xie Qingxue turned around and looked at this junior brother with pity in his eyes.
"Three months..." She paused and stabbed her again, "If he Cultivation Method makes no other progress."
Yan Wushuang slowly widened his eyes.
When I first met Zheng Fa, I was also Golden Core, Zheng Fa and even Foundation Establishment.
Until now, he is still Golden Core.
Zheng Fa is going to surpass himself.
He suddenly realized that he seemed to be a bit useless!
"It's okay."
Yan Wushuang raised his eyes and looked at the senior sister, feeling grateful in his heart - you must know that this senior sister has never been very comforting.
Xie Qingxue said sincerely, "Founder can't do anything even if he comes, it's not your fault."
Yan Wushuang looked at this senior sister and felt that she couldn't understand:
Didn't you scold Zheng Fa at Nine Mountains Forum before?
Didn't you curse when you mentioned Zheng Fa before?
How can he be so fickle!
"Founder He..." Xie Qingxue held the Green Duckweed Sword handle and lowered his eyes, "I will be happy that there is someone stronger than him."
Among Sea Region, Thunderclap Temple Wuzhi touched the cuffs, his face full of expectation.
When the news came that Nine Mountains Realm had Pure Tranquility Bamboo, Thunderclap Temple was boiling with excitement, and even Buddha Ancestor wanted to come out, but in the end it was decided to let him come with the treasure in the door.
With excitement in his heart, he used Divine Feet, and thousands of miles of Sea Region passed by in an instant. However, due to his cautious nature, he also kept using Heavenly Eye and Heavenly Ear to guard against accidents.
But the situation in Sea Region is now calm, and even the aura of some big demons are gone, so it is very safe.
He was doubtful, became more vigilant, and urged Heavenly Ear.
Suddenly, Wuzhi paused, as if he had discovered something. He looked somewhere, with Buddha's light shining in his eyes. After a while, he murmured:
"The enthronement ceremony?"
"Is this Great Freedom Devil Ancestor going to take the position of Demon Emperor now? He seems a little anxious..."
He hesitated for a while, then turned around and walked towards a certain place. The further he walked, the more Demon Race gathered and became busy.
Great Freedom Devil Ancestor was highly cultivated, and Wuzhi did not dare to get too close. He just showed his sleeves and robe, and a Golden Alms Bowl flew out of it and covered his head.
Looking closer, I saw a huge palace complex.
The foundation of the palace goes deep into the seabed, but half of the palace is exposed on the sea. When viewed from above, the top of the palace looks like small islands.
You can see how high it is, and even more so, how wide it is.
Wuzhi wanted to watch it again, but saw a laugh coming from the palace:
"Thunderclap Temple's?"
"Why don't you go into the palace and watch the ceremony?"
