After deciding to use the template of the Chaos Demon Body, Qiu Changtian looked at the character requirements again.

"Mysterious? What do you mean?"

"As the name suggests, you want people to be unable to figure out your strength, and they can only feel that you are as lofty as a mountain and unfathomable as you are." Kunlun Mirror explained.

"Isn't this the invincible character..." Qiu Changtian just said the first half of the sentence, and then he reacted.

There is actually a big difference between invincibility and mystery.

The invincible character is to show one's own powerful strength and arouse the admiration, admiration and envy of the audience around.

According to A Jing, the purpose of the mysterious character is to hide his powerful strength and arouse suspicion, vigilance and fear among the audience around him.

The former is to show it actively, while the latter is to hide it and then reveal a little bit inadvertently to scare the other party, letting the other party imagine how serious it is, so it has more stringent requirements on acting skills.

"Well, I'll try my best." Qiu Changtian looked at the appearance of this character carefully.

The facial features were still his own, but his expression was serious and intimidating without him being angry.

To put it in an analogy, he looks like Yue Buqun from the 1996 Hong Kong version or the 2001 mainland version of "Swordsman"...

Qiu Changtian was completely impressed by A Jing's magic of mirror flowers and water moons.

It's obviously the same face, but the change in hairstyle and temperament makes her look like two different people. Even Teacher Tony can't do such a magic here, right?

"This is not the first time you have met me." Kunlun Jing seemed a little embarrassed, but also a little proud. "Mirror flowers and water moons, true and false, illusions, change in an instant, only I can do this in this world."

"Oh, you really are worthy of being my Ajing." Qiu Changtian said with a smile.

"Stop talking nonsense." Kunlun Mirror changed the subject, "Mount Wutai has been located. Shall we teleport there now?"

"Don't rush." ​​Perhaps because of Junior Sister Xu's reminder, Qiu Changtian realized that he couldn't just rush over.

This time they were going to Mount Wutai, the lair of the evil cult. All three of their identities had lived in the orthodox religion for a long time, and their words and deeds were all vaguely influenced by the style and habits of orthodox monks.

If you reveal any clues in the Demon Sect, you might be killed!

The evil cult is different from the orthodox religion that values ​​face. Many times, even if there is no evidence, as long as there is the slightest suspicion on you, you may end up having your soul searched and taken away.

Intelligence preparation must be done in advance!

So Qiu Changtian set off to the Sutra Repository to look up relevant information about the Six Paths of the Demonic Cult.

…

However, in the past few days, Xu Yinglian sat upright in the cave, and after taking a pure energy pill, he began to guide his true energy and cleanse his marrow and meridians.

The Qi Refining Stage is to circulate the Qi Sea and perform the Great Circulation. While filling the Qi Sea, it is also necessary to cleanse all the turbid Qi in the twelve meridians.

The twelve meridians are the main meridians for circulating qi. To put it in an analogy, they are like a highway with heavy traffic, making it easy to cleanse the turbid qi.

But in addition to the twelve meridians, the human body also has eight extraordinary meridians, as well as various blind spots in the medullary cavity, just like local first-class highways, second-class highways and rural dirt roads.

Since the speed of cleansing the true Qi here is relatively slow, we can only use the clumsy method to grind away the turbid Qi bit by bit.

Of course, if you want to quickly pass the marrow cleansing stage, there are some more clever ways.

For example, the Purifying Qi Pill can activate the turbid air in the blocked area, making it easier for the true Qi to wash it out. Another example is the blood Qi in the blood pool in the Demon Locking Tower, which is many times more condensed than the true Qi, so the efficiency of marrow washing is naturally ridiculously fast.

The most exaggerated thing is Ling Yunpo's unique talent "Born Sword Bone", which makes the meridians throughout the body unobstructed and strong, and there are no dead corners in the medullary cavity. Combined with the first two, all the turbid air can be washed away instantly.

Although Xu Yinglian did not have the latter two, fortunately he had the Purifying Energy Pill, and his marrow cleansing efficiency was much faster than that of cultivators of the same level.

But as she continued to advance the marrow cleansing process, she gradually realized that something was wrong.

Although this Pure Energy Pill can help with marrow cleansing, the benefits are not exaggerated to the point of being able to "complete marrow cleansing in two months" - at most it can only shorten the time by 40% to 50%.

Why was Senior Brother Qiu able to cleanse his marrow in two months? Was it because of his clear mind?

It is naturally a more time-saving and labor-saving approach to attribute the differences in cultivation levels to the differences in cultivation talents.

But Sister Xu was so proud that she would never deceive herself in this regard. She knew that the Dao Heart was clear, which could speed up enlightenment, focus the mind, and make one immune to inner demons... all of which were related to the mind.

But this marrow cleansing is an improvement of one’s bones and roots. What does it have to do with one’s character?

It's like a top student saying that he got full marks in physical education because his IQ is over 200. This is complete nonsense.

Senior brother must have some special marrow cleansing technique!

When he first started learning, Xu Yinglian would definitely be stubborn. He knew that his senior brother had the secret book, but he refused to ask and insisted on figuring it out on his own.

But after a series of events such as becoming Taoist companions, repairing their Taoist hearts, and exploring secret realms together, although Xu Yinglian still wanted to strive to defeat and surpass his senior brother, he no longer treated his senior brother as an enemy and guarded against him closely.

If I have any questions, I can ask him directly!

If the senior brother can't answer, it means he is afraid!

So Xu Yinglian stood up and prepared to go find his senior brother.

Just as he reached the entrance of the cave, he suddenly changed his mind and went back to the stone chamber to look at himself in the bronze mirror.

I saw the fairy in the mirror with a delicate face and extraordinary temperament, but because of the recent mental stress, her eyes and brows looked a little haggard, which actually added a bit of fragile beauty to her.

Xu Yinglian stared at the mirror, stretched out her slender jade fingers, and slowly rubbed her eyebrows, dispersing all the subtle pent-up energy.

You can ask for advice, but you can’t let my senior know that you are worried about it.

Otherwise, he will think that I need something from him and his attitude will become even more arrogant!

After tidying up his expression, Xu Yinglian took another pill to make sure his face looked radiant before he slowly went out.

"Is senior brother here?" She came to the entrance of Qiu Changtian's cave and shouted inside.

After a while, there was no response from inside.

Xu Yinglian was just frowning when she saw her fourth junior fellow apprentice Yan Zhitui passing by and casually reminded her:

"Second Senior Sister, are you looking for Senior Senior Brother? He has been studying hard in the Sutra Library these days."

"The Sutra Library?" Xu Yinglian asked in confusion, "What is he doing in the Sutra Library?"

"It seems that he is looking up information from Jiejiao." Yan Zhitui said with a smile.

Jiejiao information...Xu Yinglian thought about it for a moment and then understood what was going on.

I guess my senior brother is also worried about being wanted by the Demon Cult, so he has to study countermeasures in advance.

In this way, senior brother actually has his shortcomings, that is, he comes from a mediocre background, has a weak knowledge base, and knows too little about the world of cultivation.

When encountering such an emergency, you can only cram and make up for the relevant knowledge...

Thinking of this, Xu Yinglian had another idea:

Whatever knowledge my senior brother wants to know about the outside world, I can answer it for him; in return, he also has to answer my questions about marrow cleansing.

This way, it won't be considered as me asking him unilaterally!

Thinking of this, all her worries were gone and she couldn't help but smile.
