Buried in the ancient desert.
This is what Zhou Qing learned from the Sword Lord: the place where Patriarch Xuandu obtained the Sword Scripture of Killing Immortals.
He kept it in mind. If he had the chance to go to the Ancient Desert in the future, he might pay attention to this aspect.
"Go in, and walk into the range of the Yin-Yang Light."
The Sword Master said, "Then just find a place to sit down and wait quietly. I will mobilize the power of Xuanfa Mountain to assist you in the baptism."
Zhou Qing nodded, said thank you, then stepped forward and walked into the Yin-Yang magic light that covered the entire Xuanfa Mountain.
The Yin-Yang Light was very strong. Zhou Qing could not see any other sights when he was in it. He did not walk around much and did not try to climb up Xuanfa Mountain.
At this time, he would naturally do whatever the Sword Master said.
Doing unnecessary things may lead to bad results.
Sitting cross-legged and adjusting his own state, Zhou Qing waited quietly.
At a certain moment, he suddenly felt that the yin and yang light around him began to flow. Faintly, Zhou Qing seemed to see a black and white Tai Chi diagram flash by, but when he looked closely, there was no Tai Chi diagram, as if it was just an illusion.
Then the Yin-Yang Light suddenly surged, and a mysterious force descended from the front and gathered above Zhou Qing's head.
A black and white vortex appeared above Zhou Qing's head, and black and white power poured down from the vortex and finally entered Zhou Qing's body.
After coming into contact with this power, Zhou Qing's body shook slightly and a wonderful feeling surged into his heart.
He suddenly felt "hungry", an extraordinary hunger that came from the depths of his soul and from the origin of life.
All over the body, the flesh and soul are emitting this feeling of hunger, which needs food to fill it.
There was also a feeling of drought, as if his body and soul were about to wither and needed the nourishment of rain and dew.
And the power pouring down from the vortex above the head is "food" and "rain and dew".
This is the power of the mysterious law, which is also the power of the blessed land.
Of course, this is definitely not the original power of the blessed land, but it is the ordinary power of the blessed land that can be sustainably born in Xuanfa Mountain. After it is used, it will not affect the power of the ordinary blessed land in Xuanfa Mountain.
There is no way that Xuandu Temple would use the original power of Xuanfa Mountain in such a place.
Xuanfa Mountain is the foundation of Xuandu Temple. How could its origin be damaged? Unless the master of Xuandu Temple needs it, no master of the Biluo Tongtian realm can use the origin of the blessed land.
But for disciples like Zhou Qing, the normal power of this blessed land is already a great opportunity.
After absorbing the first ray of profound power, every cell and every soul of Zhou Qing seemed to be cheering and feasting on the food. A gluttonous feast began.
The body glowed with new vitality, the soul blossomed with unprecedented brilliance, and the origin was breathing...
While enriching itself, a deep and fundamental transformation and evolution is taking place.
Zhou Qing was intoxicated in this feeling. There was no pain, only endless comfort, like the ultimate bliss in the world.
During this process, the seed of transformation that Zhou Qing was paying attention to also began to move.
This rare species from the Tianming Sect has been continuously absorbing the mysterious power that has entered Zhou Qing's body in this world.
Sure enough, this kind of power that can make one's own physique and soul evolve and get closer to other bodies and souls can indeed be used by the seed of transformation.
Thinking of the effect of the mysterious power, Zhou Qing was deeply looking forward to it.
Eat, eat, the more the better.
For any disciple who receives the baptism of the Mystical Law, the power of the Mystical Law is nominally unlimited during the baptism process, and there is no time limit.
As long as you can still absorb and refine, you can continue to stay here.
It’s not that the power of the mysterious law is endless, but that this power has its limits and it is impossible to endlessly strengthen a person’s essence.
Once the limit is reached, it naturally cannot be absorbed anymore, so there is a nominally unlimited supply.
In fact, it is impossible to stay here forever.
Therefore, Zhou Qing was not worried that the Transcendent Seed would also absorb the power of the Mysterious Law, which might cause excessive consumption of this power.
What he can absorb is within a normal and reasonable range.
Outside, Jian Jun kept looking at Zhou Qing. At first, his expression was calm and there was no fluctuation, but as time passed, Jian Jun's brows moved slightly.
Is the level of acceptance of the power of the mysterious law so high?
The effect after each person receives the baptism of the mysterious law is different. The best ones can enhance their own essence to the level comparable to a quasi-innate alien soul/alien body.
The worst ones are naturally those who gain very little.
And needless to say, the more and longer a person absorbs the power of the mysterious law during the baptism process, the better the final effect will be.
Jian Jun was very experienced in this, and he also had disciples who had experienced similar things, so he was a little surprised at how long Zhou Qing had persisted.
This is going to the limit.
Time passes, and eventually, the hungry body becomes full and the parched state becomes hydrated again.
The vortex above Zhou Qing's head gradually dissipated, and no more mysterious power continued to pour down.
It's reached its limit.
Zhou Qing's body has reached its limit, and so has the seed of transformation.
It’s not that the Transcendent Seed can’t eat it, but that it doesn’t want to eat it.
"Come out."
The Sword Lord's voice rang in Zhou Qing's ears, and Zhou Qing stood up and left the area covered by the Yin-Yang Magic Light.
As soon as he came out, the Sword Lord's eyes met him and looked him over. Then the Sword Lord nodded and said, "Very good. Your performance is among the best among all the disciples who have come to receive the baptism of the Mystical Law in the past."
"After such a long time of baptism, your essence should have improved significantly now."
Zhou Qing then realized that they had arrived here in the early morning, but the sun had already set and it was approaching dusk.
Zhou Qing felt his body and his joy was beyond words.
“It’s really a big gain.”
The Sword Master did not ask any more questions, but said, "Let's go, I'll take you back."
The sword flashed suddenly, but this time it did not appear in an instant, but flew in the sky.
Zhou Qing was a little confused as to why the Sword Master had slowed down, when he heard the Immortal's disciple ask:
"I see traces of the power of the real dragon and the phoenix in your body, and they are deeply integrated with you. The essence of your power also seems extraordinary. If there is a chance in the future, you can continue to strengthen it."
"The power of the True Dragon and the Phoenix cannot be underestimated no matter what."
Zhou Qing felt puzzled, but he still explained it.
"By chance, I once obtained and refined the essence of a true dragon and a phoenix, so it had a certain impact on my body. However, I have no idea how to strengthen these two aspects."
The trace of the phoenix undoubtedly comes from the drop of phoenix blood obtained from the drifting wish bottle, but we will not mention this blood for now.
As for the power of the true dragon, Zhou Qing actually thought about strengthening it. For example, absorbing the dragon balls in the past was one of his attempts.
However, the True Dragon Blood Soul Stone doesn’t look down upon those True Dragon treasures with ordinary bloodlines…
There was nothing Zhou Qing could do this time.
"It's a very common opportunity." Sword Master commented: "There are many people in the world whose fates have been changed by chance after obtaining the blood of dragons and phoenixes."
"As for how to strengthen it, perhaps we can choose to start with Taoist magic and martial arts."
Zhou Qing nodded and thanked him, but he felt even more confused in his heart.
You said it was a very common opportunity, so why did you mention it specifically?
Could it be that he saw that the essence of the dragon and phoenix power in my body was particularly high? The next second, Zhou Qing's eyes blurred, and then he returned to the outside of Kunlun Mountain.
“…”
So you flew slowly at the beginning because you wanted to ask me this, right?
"Practice well. I look forward to the day when you grow up."
"If you have any problem, you can go find Dugu, he is my disciple."
After leaving these words, the Sword Master disappeared.
"I always feel like there's something weird..."
Looking at the empty surroundings, Zhou Qing had a lot of thoughts in his mind, but he couldn't figure out what was going on.
Zhou Qing already knew that Dugu was the disciple of the Sword Lord.
After meeting Dugu for the first time in the Zhenchuan Palace, Zhou Qing and Lu Yuanyuan and the others learned about this senior brother.
Where one's teacher comes from is a topic that naturally cannot be avoided.
Jian Jun was a disciple brought back from outside by the master of Xuandu Temple when he was young. He was not from a noble family, and Dugu also became Jian Jun's disciple, so they were definitely a master-disciple relationship.
The other side.
The Sword Master came to the master of Xuandu Temple again.
"Master, do you see anything?"
The master of Xuandu Temple glanced at Jian Jun and said with a smile:
"It was you who contacted him, not me. I should be the one asking you this, right?"
The Sword Master shook his head, "I think everything is normal. He is a very outstanding disciple. Zhou Qing should have gained the greatest benefit from the baptism of the mysterious method."
The master of Xuandu Temple was calm and relaxed.
"It is Xuandu Temple's good fortune to have such an outstanding disciple. If you are really curious, you might as well accept him as your disciple."
The Sword Master shook his head again, "Forget it. He is not suitable for me. There is also the cause and effect with the Emperor of Sui."
"I can't afford to accept this disciple."
"Let's go, let's go."
The Sword Master disappeared again. He came and went in a hurry, highlighting his decisiveness.
"Flustered."
The master of Xuandu Temple smiled and thought of Zhou Qing again.
“Interesting.”
In the Qingxu Palace.
Please...collect 6_9_book_bar (Six//Nine//Book//bar)
Zhou Qing came to the training room specially used for practicing Taoist martial arts and tested his current condition in all aspects.
The result made him very excited. His fighting ability had made great progress compared to before he received the baptism of Xuanfa.
Just as the Sword Master said, because the Transcendent Seed vigorously absorbed the power of the Mysterious Law until it didn't want to eat anymore, he indeed gained the greatest benefit of the baptism of the Mysterious Law.
The seed of transformation has sprouted.
The growth progress of this "seed" will be fed back to Zhou Qing himself, causing changes in his essence.
The budding seeds of the Transcendental Seeds were, in the words of Xuandu Temple, comparable to quasi-alien bodies and alien souls! This also meant that Zhou Qing had achieved the highest achievement of the Mysterious Law Baptism, which was very rare among all the disciples who had undergone the baptism, and was the limit of the effect of the Mysterious Law Power.
Facts have proved that the power of the blessed land is a very good nourishment for the seed of transmaturity. It is a pity that this power also has its limits and cannot allow the seed of transmaturity to fully mature.
At the same time, it is precisely because of the existence of the Seed of Transcendence that Zhou Qing was able to persist in the baptism for such a long time and achieve this highest achievement.
If the innate different bodies and souls can be well cultivated, then even if they only practice ordinary skills and do not have superb Taoist martial arts, they can fight against ordinary practitioners of higher levels based on their own strength.
The seed of Zhou Qing's transformation has sprouted, making his essence comparable to a quasi-alien body or soul. One can imagine how much improvement this has caused.
For example in martial arts, in the past Zhou Qing had made some success in bone refining and his physical essence could be compared with ordinary warriors who had just entered the marrow cleansing realm. But at this moment, it is not so accurate to say that he had improved by about half a realm.
The increase in combat power is extremely significant.
Moreover, the improvement that Zhou Qing gained from this baptism of the mysterious method was not limited to his martial arts body, but also his soul.
He was practicing dual cultivation and had received the true teachings of both paths, so naturally he could gain benefits in both aspects during the baptism.
If the seed of transformation has a chance to mature in the future, then Zhou Qing will be equivalent to possessing both a different soul and a different body, transforming into the top in one fell swoop.
There is currently only one such person among the disciples of Xuandu, and that is Dugu, who possesses the body of a celestial god.
This kind of divine body is a combination of soul and body, and it is the top level among them, only lower than the legendary thing like Nirvana Bone.
"I have gained such a great benefit this time. I will soon be able to possess the strength of a Venerable without relying on puppets or formations..."
Zhou Qing couldn't help but feel excited when he thought of this.
He is still in the initial stage of manifestation of the saint, but after this incident, he is very close to being able to fight the Venerable head-on, or even kill him directly.
You know, generally the top-notch geniuses have to reach the late stage of Manifestation of Sagehood, or even perfection, to possess such strength.
But Zhou Qing's foundation is comparable to that of a genius, and now he has undergone a transformation, and with the blessing of many treasures...
Just thinking about it makes my heart boil.
It was really a good decision to come to Xuandu Temple. Of course, it was also due to Zhou Qing's own efforts. Others who received the baptism of Xuanfa would not have such benefits.
The realm of the Venerable, which once seemed unattainable to Zhou Qing, was now as easy as taking something out of a bag. With a little effort, he could enter the realm of combat power first! At this time, Zhou Qing turned his head and looked outside the Qingxu Palace.
Song Dongchen was looking for him.
Zhou Qing went out and brought Song Dongchen in, and asked:
"How did Master Song harvest?"
This is the first time Song Dongchen has appeared in public since his trip to Huangquan.
"Very big." Song Dongchen's tone showed some happiness that was hard to conceal.
"After my personal trip to the underworld, I gained a lot of insights and understood a lot. It's all thanks to you, Zhou Qing."
"I'm just ashamed to have missed your true teaching ceremony."
Zhou Qing smiled and said, "This is just a small matter. It is not as important as your cultivation, Uncle Song."
"Since Master Song has come out of retreat, do you want to go again?"
Every time Song Dongchen went to Huangquan, he would bring back a lot of Huangquan liquid for Zhou Qing, and Zhou Qing was very welcoming to him.
"I do have this plan. I will bother you a few more times." Song Dongchen said excitedly: "Going into the underworld is an unprecedented experience. I feel very good."
"Perhaps, advancing to Huangquan is not impossible."
As he spoke, Song Dongchen handed over something and said with a smile:
"Although I missed your true succession ceremony, I still prepared the gift. Even though it's a little late, it's finally in your hands."
"Uncle Song is too polite." Zhou Qing thought of something and asked hurriedly:
"By the way, Uncle Song, do you know where to find a very powerful True Blood Puppet with great potential?"
"It doesn't matter if it's incomplete or damaged. It's best to have the strength of the second or third level of True Blood Refining."
This is Zhou Qing making plans for the special item that once dropped from his body, the power of the Puppet God.
"You want a puppet? I have a few here. You can take a look to see if you like one. However, there is only one puppet that has been refined through the third level of True Blood. Its potential...is not very good."
"I'm just trying to get some information. There's no rush."
"Then you have asked the right person. Even if Senior Sister Luo knows more about this, I guess she doesn't know as much as I do." Song Dongchen said with a smile:
"Where are the places with the most True Blood Puppets and the most potential? Let's start with the places close to Xuandu Temple. The first choice is Minggu Divine Mountain."
"In this dangerous place, puppets are one of the many dangers that come with it. They are very common. There is a famous Ancient Puppet Road inside the Dark Ancient Divine Mountain. After entering there, you will face a constant stream of puppet attacks. The puppets there are also the most powerful."
"However, after continuous exploration, we have found a way to take puppets away from the Ancient Puppet Road. I have a record of it here and will give you a copy later."
"And then..."
Song Dongchen told Zhou Qing about all the places close to Xuandu Temple where puppets could be obtained. He mentioned three or more places in a row. It turned out that he was knowledgeable.
"In addition to taking risks to obtain puppets yourself, there is also a way to trade with other people to buy them."
Song Dongchen continued, "And this has to mention the Puppet Sect."
"This is the top sect passed down in the Eastern Zhou Dynasty. When it comes to the art of puppetry, no one in the world can surpass the Puppet Sect. The puppets refined by the masters of the Puppet Sect are naturally the best of the best."
"There are even immortal puppets inside the Puppet Sect, which are extremely terrifying. If you are interested in puppets but don't want to go out and take risks, then contacting puppets is the best choice."
"There are some other Puppet Sects in the world, but they are not as good as the Puppet Sect. There are also some in Da Qi, and they are..."
Zhou Qing listened to Song Dongchen's story, nodded continuously, and kept the information in mind.
If you want to get a high-quality puppet with great potential, there are basically only two ways: taking risks or buying.
But this Puppet Sect is too far away.
It is obviously impossible for Zhou Qing to run to Eastern Zhou just for a real blood puppet. He plans to work as a home repairman in the future.
After learning the relevant information, Zhou Qing used the Yellow Springs Dragon to send Song Dongchen to the Yellow Springs.
Song Dongchen gained a lot of insights and his understanding of Huangquan and Huangquan Realm was further deepened. Zhou Qing obtained a large amount of Huangquan Liquid, which was a win-win situation.
After Song Dongchen left, Zhou Qing looked at the time.
It’s almost twelve o’clock at night...
The critical moment is coming.
Time passed minute by minute, and soon, a familiar message appeared in front of Zhou Qing.
[Get a cheat code refresh count and start refreshing]
【Last month's golden finger: Daqianxian Tree】
[Refreshing...]
【Refresh completed】
[This month's golden finger: Innate Sword Body]
[Life Points: 8]
[Do you want to use your life points to extract the golden finger you once had? ]
When I drew Brother Shu to return before, I used up a bit of my life points, and it became seven points. This month, because he was promoted to the Manifestation of Saint and had a breakthrough in the realm, his life points became eight points again.
It seems like a lot, but in fact, if you draw every month, you can use up all your life points this year.
This thing is really useless.
Zhou Qing looked at this month's golden finger, the innate sword body?
It sounds like some kind of innate magic related to kendo, and strictly speaking it is also a kind of gifted golden finger.
Seems pretty good? (End of this chapter)
