Of course, Xu Sheng himself was also a little surprised at this time.
It was also the first time for him to use his martial arts skills in a close-range fight while battling with magic power.
Of course Xu Sheng understood it once he thought about it.
This was because the space in the stone chamber was relatively small, and Xuande did not have much room to dodge.
In addition, Xuande’s pure yang soul has now come out to control the flying sword.
Only then was Xu Sheng's sudden attack successful.
Of course, Xu Sheng didn't wait for Xuande to say anything at this time.
He turned his sword again and chopped it on Xuande's flying head, directly cutting his head in half.
Throw it left and right!
Brains splattered!
Xuande let out another scream.
Of course there is nothing more to say after that.
Although Xuande's soul is still alive.
But he couldn't withstand the attack!
They were directly destroyed by another attack from Xu Sheng and Shi Niang.
Completely dead.
Since the battle ended quickly, the cave did not collapse.
Shi Niang withdrew his magic power, and the clumps of red hair shrank back.
Then Shi Niang looked at Xu Sheng with lingering fear.
Although she didn't say anything, Xu Sheng roughly knew what she meant.
"If you still want to follow me around the world!"
Xu Sheng immediately said to Shi Niang seriously: "Before you do anything in the future, you must ask for my opinion first! Don't act on your own! Especially when it comes to the death of Master Xuan Zhen Feisheng and the secret of my Yang body!"
Although Xu Sheng looks like a slightly immature boy, Shi Niang looks like a slightly older, beautiful and mature woman.
It should have been Xu Sheng who accepted Shi Niang's reprimand.
But when Shi Niang heard Xu Sheng's scolding, he just admitted his mistake obediently, like a primary school student listening to his teacher's lecture, lowering his head and repeatedly saying that he was wrong.
"Xiao Chengyuan, don't chase me away."
Shi Niang added: "I promise to listen to you in the future and do whatever you ask me to do."
"real?"
Xu Sheng asked, "Do whatever I tell you to do?"
"real!"
Shi Niang's pretty face flushed, she blinked her beautiful eyes and nodded, "I will be very good. I will do whatever you ask me to do."
“…”
Xu Sheng understood that she was still coveting his extremely yang body, so she deliberately said these ambiguous words.
"good."
Xu Sheng then said, "Now I will speak. Listen carefully - I command you to squat down immediately, poop out a pile of shit, and then eat it yourself, poop out again, and eat it again, repeat this cycle a hundred times!"
"???"
Shi Niang widened her beautiful eyes and said, "You, this, this, this..."
"You can't do it? And you still say you should do whatever I tell you to do!"
Xu Sheng shook his head and said, "Tsk!"
"You are deliberately making things difficult for me! Who can do that?"
Shi Niang protested aggrievedly: "You asked for something I can do! I will definitely obey!"
Xu Sheng was speechless.
He turned around and squatted to search for the spoils left by Xuande.
"Oh, right, little Chengyuan!"
Unexpectedly, Shi Niang suddenly said, "You promised me before..."
She had just opened the stone gate in advance and remembered the promise Xu Sheng had made to her.
"You just said that you would listen to me and do whatever I told you to do, as long as you can do it. Isn't that right?"
But Xu Sheng immediately interrupted her and said, "The second thing I want you to do now is to forget that promise! Isn't this impossible?"
“…”
Shi Niang was speechless.
I was stunned for a while.
"Xiao Chengyuan, you're a liar!"
She then shouted: "You are not a gentleman if you don't keep your word!"
"Didn't I say I was a gentleman?"
But Xu Sheng shrugged and said, "I have always been a villain. Haven't you always called me Little Chengyuan?"
“…”
Brewing is sluggish.
"No."
Of course, she then sighed and said, "Xiao Chengyuan, you are a gentleman."
Xu Sheng was speechless.
"Of course I know what you are thinking. It must be because of Master!"
She stamped her feet softly and said in a wronged tone, "But your master and I are really not Taoist companions!"
Xu Sheng was speechless.
"I don't care."
Shi Niang said pitifully, "You must keep your promise to me!"
"Okay. Stop talking nonsense."
Xu Sheng just said coldly: "Let's take a look at the inheritance left by the Taoist master. Maybe there is something good in it that can help you recover your magic power easily! There are better treasures right next to you. Why are you still thinking about my Yang body?"
"Oh. All right."
Shi Niang could only put his hope on Zhang Daoling's remains in disappointment and said, "Then let's check his remains."
In the blink of an eye, another two minutes passed.
The long box was placed in front of Xu Sheng and Shi Niang.
"What kind of thing did Taoist Master Daoling leave behind?" Shi Niang's chest kept rising and falling, and she stared with her beautiful eyes wide open and pursed her lips.
"I hope there is something good." Xu Sheng was also slightly excited. Because the secret of how Zhang Daoling could practice the Yang God Soul to the full level of the art at such a young age was about to be revealed!
Soon Xu Sheng opened the long box left by Zhang Daoling.
However, there was only a jade slip, a piece of paper and a pile of strange crystal-like prismatic stones.
Xu Sheng picked up the jade slip and used his spiritual power to explore inside.
Shi Niang picked up the note.
Xu Sheng’s mind quickly saw various words and pictures reflected in the jade slip.
It turns out that this jade slip is a martial arts book called "The Great Taotie Technique".
He first briefly introduced the power of this technique - it could actually devour other people's magic power, just like Taotie could devour everything.
And the side effects are not as strong as those of magic.
It’s really amazing!
"What?"
Xu Sheng couldn't help but widen his eyes and asked, "How can there be such a technique in the world?"
Of course, now he finally understood why Zhang Daoling did not pass on his skills in the Taoist sect before he ascended to heaven.
Because this kind of skills simply cannot be used in orthodox Taoism.
This technique is too much like magic!
The way people identify evil spirits is by looking at whether they have predatory attributes!
Evil is just more evil.
Devil means plunder!
Many magical skills have the core of plundering.
Their practice has always been to plunder other people's lives or essences in a very cruel way to transform them into their own strength.
The methods include using a furnace similar to Chun Yangzi's, drinking human blood, crippling many people's limbs and throwing them into a pit of poisonous insects to be bitten by the insects for years, making them suffer to the point of being worse off than death but unable to die, and then absorbing their resentment, etc.
In addition, magic skills often have very strong side effects!
Because if you absorb too much external force, it will be easy to be unable to bear it.
The body will become - blood vessels protruding, the face will be hideous, the skin will be cracked, or the body will be emaciated! Or many other things!
This is why many demon cultivators often wear black clothes and cover their entire faces with big black cloaks.
This is because their faces have long been unsightly!
It was terrifying enough to make a child cry.
If it weren't for being ugly and scary, who would like to wear a black cloak every day and keep their face hidden in the darkness forever?
Besides the ferocious and terrifying appearance, there is a high possibility of going astray after practicing the magic skills for a while!
It is because of these reasons that evil power is not favored by the righteous.
Many people do not choose to practice evil skills, but choose to practice the righteous way.
After all, everyone wants to gain power while still being an upright human being.
Instead of becoming a hideous and terrifying existence.
However, some people took risks to practice magic for the sake of power, and they plundered everywhere to become stronger.
In this case, the righteous cultivators will certainly not tolerate these evil cultivators!
After all, no one knows whether these evil cultivators will rob them or the people around them whom they care about one day!
Moreover, the righteous ones all practice hard on their own, but these evil cultivators can improve themselves by plundering everywhere, which makes people feel psychologically unbalanced no matter how you look at it.
These are the reasons why the devil is wanted to be killed by everyone in the world.
Not everyone has a strong sense of justice.
In some earthly fairy-tale TV series, the protagonists always look up at the sky at a 45-degree angle and ponder life, asking questions like "What is evil? What is the devil?"
The screenwriter may think this is very cool.
But in fact, this kind of problem will never occur in the real world of practice!
Because the demon's predatory nature is determined by the way it practices!
A martial art without the attribute of plundering cannot be called a magic skill at all!
A cultivator who does not practice this kind of technique cannot be called a demon lord or a demon leader!
Of course, Xu Sheng originally disdained magic.
But at this moment, this set of skills is extraordinary.
The training method is not cruel!
And its side effects are not that strong!
In short, this is a method that has the effectiveness of magic power but without its powerful side effects.
So Xu Sheng was shocked!
This martial arts book says that the objects whose magic power it plunders and devours are all orthodox beings who have cultivated their magic power on their own.
That is to say, if Xu Sheng practices this technique, he can only devour the magic power of some orthodox practitioners or goblins.
On the contrary, it is impossible to devour the magical power of some evil practitioners.
Because the magical powers of these evil practitioners are not pure.
Its power itself comes from plunder.
Therefore, their forces are inherently in conflict with each other.
Absorbing this power into your body will increase the uncertainty of the magic power in your body.
"Isn't this still a magic book?"
Xu Sheng frowned and said, "No wonder Zhang Daoling didn't dare to leave this technique openly! I guess he was practicing it secretly at the beginning!"
"Xiao Chengyuan, look!"
当然这时施酿递过来纸条说道：“你手里的这本功法，好像只有你们这种至阳之体的能练！”
许升拿过纸条一看。
原来是张道灵临死之前的留言。
说这一本功法虽然很神奇，能吞噬别人的法力，却没有魔功的副作用。
可其本质上还是掠夺别人的力量。
副作用还是有的。
只是比大部分的魔功看小！
可一般的人还是根本就扛不住！
张道灵说他自己早年曾经给其他人练过，可是那些人都出现了很强大的副作用。
最后甚至化身为魔。
唯有张道灵靠着至阳之体的强大精气扛住了。
没错，原来张道灵也是至阳之体！
只不过这个秘密他以前也如许升现在这般保密。
所以外人并不知道。
用这个功法吸收别人的法力进入自己的神魂之后。
可以运转这个功法以至阳之体的强大血气反哺神魂以镇压外来的力量将其融会进入自己的神魂本源之中。
以此达到没有副作用的快速提升。
当然就算是至阳之体，吸收的外来力量的程度也一样有极限。
到了某一个程度，若感觉自己扛不住了，就必须要停下！
这就是为什么当年张道灵修炼到一百个阳神之魂之后就停止了。
然后就渡劫飞升了。
因为他靠着这个大饕餮术吸收别人的法力练到了那种程度已经到了他的极限。
许升看到这些的时候也是惊愕的。
这样的话那这个功法就只能他练了。
施酿是练不了的。
“不过这些灵石，我能用！”
当然施酿这时说道：“还行，我不是没有收获！”
许升的确也看到纸条上简单地说完了大饕餮术的事情之后，张道灵又说盒子里的这些晶石都是他从一处神秘洞府里得到的灵石。
将这些灵石给吸收了，可以直接让人获得不少的提升。
许升猜测，张道灵应该原本是想带着这些灵石飞升上去，想着有可能自己到了新世界会用到的。
没想到出了意外死在这里。
可以看得出来这张纸条张道灵写得很艰难与仓促。
最后张道灵留下三个字“不要飞……”就断笔了。
看看这里，许升顿时明白之前自己的猜测应该是真的，张道灵很有可能也是死在了飞升之上的大恐怖的手里。
他临死前撑着最后一口气写下了这个纸条。
只不过在他最终还是把大饕餮术的副作用先写了下来。
害怕后来者不知道利害。
贸然修炼这个功法，化身为魔，害人害己。
接着他才又提了一句自己的这些灵石。
再接着才想要写飞升之上的遭遇。
可惜他已经没有精力了。
然后就直接挂掉了。
许升思考过后很快就决定自己要修炼这大饕餮术。
毕竟目前知道的能够短时间内快速提升实力的方法就只有这个了。
只要在自己感觉到极限的时候及时停下掠夺就是了。
而且许升心里已经有了掠夺、吞噬法力的目标。
那就是那个假观音大师的那些点化者！
她到处点化。
好像是等着这些点化者的修炼有成才吃掉。
那许升就先用大饕餮术把这些人的法力给掠夺、吸收了。
这个功法将对方法力吸收之后，并不会让对方死掉，不像是杀妖精夺内丹，一定会灭绝对方生命。
只是会让对方法力衰落而已。
如此一来许升可以增强自己的实力，还可以让那些人避免修炼有成而被假观音大士吃掉。
可谓是一举两得，也算是善事一桩。
至于这些神秘的灵石，许升当然也是跟施酿平分了。
“我只要三分之一便可！”
不过没想到这时候施酿却说道：“这一路过来，原本就是你出力比较多。”
哪怕许升说平分。
施酿也坚持如此。
此时还不知道这些灵石的效果到底会怎么样。
既然施酿这样说，许升也就没再坚持。
随后将玄德的尸体扔出去后，两个人被各自在一边修炼了。
许升没有急着修炼大饕餮术，而是先尝试吸收这些灵石。
在吸收了一颗灵石将这些能量汇入自己的识海、注入自己的神魂之中之后，没想到瞬间许升就感觉到自己的神魂能量爆棚。
不一会儿，他就再度修炼出来了一个分魂！
当然其还是一个阴神，并未成就纯阳。
但如此效果已经很不凡了。
这灵石居然如此有用！
许升也是惊喜。
接着他不多想。
就是继续修炼。
转眼之间三年过去了。
由于有灵石的能量，许升这三年完全不吃不喝。
他在这般的修炼中将自己的纯阳之魂修炼到了三十六个！
之前他是六个，也就是说提升了三十个！
这个提升非常恐怖。
要知道当初的玄真也不过才十六个而已。
许升现在一下子却就已飙到了三十六个！
不过这时灵石吸收的量也有限，吸收到一定程度就不能凭此继续提升了。
剩下的些许灵石就只能用来弥补法力消耗了。
这灵石的能量也跟妖精的内丹的能量差不多！
也就是说现在许升吸收了灵石的能量后，他能吸收的妖精内丹的极限已经到顶了。
当然还有大饕餮术在！
许升也不慌。
“飞剑，起！”
许升的纯阳之魂飞出体外驾驭飞剑，顿时密密麻麻的几十把飞剑围绕着许升飞着旋转。
不过许升身上的飞剑不够三十把，只有二十四把。
“之后还得想办法弄点飞剑才行！”
许升皱了皱眉：
“修炼大饕餮术！”
之后他转而修炼玉简里的功法。
时光如流水。
转眼又过去了五年。
在这石室里许升待了八年了！
而在这五年里，许升也将大饕餮术彻底练成了。
至于施酿那边，她也是一直在修炼，许升没有关注过她是如何修炼的。
然而没想到这一天施酿突然发出一声痛呼。
“玄真哥哥，不！”
脸色苍白的她撕心裂肺地喊着。
许升惊了一下，连忙望了过去。
“怎么了？”
之后许升才弄明白。
原来是这八年来，施酿在动用了一部分灵石来增长自身的道行后。
在如许升前三年的吸收灵石到达了极限后。
在许升转而修行大饕餮术的那段时间里。
施酿将自己剩下的灵石用来滋养玄真的残魂。
因为她感受到了这灵石的玄妙。
所以犹豫之后，还是决定尝试将这些灵石的能量注入进去。
希望其能救活玄真的残魂。
可是很明显她失败了。
玄真的残魂根本承受不住这种能量以至直接砰的一声炸掉了。
灰飞烟灭。
什么都不剩。
许升知晓一切的时候也是不由愣住。
没想到师傅玄真的残魂就这样没了！
而施酿更是直接流下了眼泪，随后她整个人变得颓然丧气。
且这个时候她的那些灵石都用光了。
自身的法力却为了救援玄真的残魂近乎耗尽。
许升一时间也不知道该怎么安慰她。
“你已经尽力了。施酿。”
最后许升想了想，叹了一口气说道：“这残魂本就是你耗了多年修为才挽救回来的。如今在你手里破灭，师傅若在天有灵肯定也不会怪你的。”
施酿泪眼盈盈地望着许升。
“是我没用。”
她捂脸痛哭道：“不管如何努力都没法救回他。”
许升张了张嘴，但最终没有再开口。
“你之前的那个承诺，可以作废了。”
施酿这时却再开口道：“玄真哥哥没了，一切都没意义了。所以我也不可能会下贱地去吸你的阳元了。你以后也不用再烦我一直觊觎你的至阳之体了。你以后想给我吸，我也不会吸了！”
她之前之所以那般上赶着倒贴许升，说想要双修想要吸至阳之元，都是因为想把修为快速提升起来以救玄真。
“……”
许升无言。
他什么都没说呢。
话都让施酿说了。
一开始上赶着吸的是她，现在说吸是下贱的也是她。
当然许升对师傅彻底地离去，心里也不由有点难受。
同时他也知道施酿心里恐怕比他难受千万倍。
所以此时许升也不想跟她计较。
“我的灵石还剩一颗，其他都被我吸收了。”
许升此时也叹息一声，随后将手中的一颗灵石丢了过去说道：“你的法力消耗殆尽了吧？既然你不愿意吸我的阳元，那你就吸收了这个吧。”
如今许升吸收灵石也不能提升实力了，留下来也只能作为法力回复之用，他身为至阳之体其实不需要这个了。
“谢谢。”施酿接住灵石后也说了两个字。
不过可以看得出来玄真的真正死亡对她的打击很大，她已然完全没有了平时叽叽喳喳的样子。
等到施酿的法力也恢复了之后。
许升跟施酿就离开了这石室。
两人看到外面的玄德的尸体已经只剩下枯骨了。
接着两人又直接出了山洞。
二人站在半山腰的山洞外眺望山林。
此时一身白袍的许升已经快一百二十岁了。
但他如今仍旧是十七岁左右的少年模样。
之前在那石室里的提升让他身体的衰老速度再次大降！
Xu Sheng didn't know the exact age of Shi Niang, who looked like a sexy mature woman in her twenties and was dressed in red.
A mountain breeze blew from the left, ruffling the hair and sleeves of the two people.
"Little Chengyuan."
Shi Niang rolled up her hair with a sad look on her face and said, "I'm ready to leave."
Xu Sheng turned his head and looked at her fair profile.
Understand her thoughts.
Since Xuan Zhen died, she no longer had such an urgent and strong desire to make great progress in her cultivation.
Although she could have thought about revenge for Xuan Zhen and practiced hard to kill the terrifying existence above the Ascension.
However, the terrifying existence above the ascension is too powerful.
Even Zhang Daoling’s one hundred Yang God souls died!
When the enemy becomes strong enough, it is easy for people to feel despair.
This is what Shi Niang is like now.
"good."
So Xu Sheng just nodded and said, "Take care on your way."
He also did not persuade Shi Niang to take revenge.
After all, the enemy is too strong.
Perhaps if Shi Niang returns to the mountain to practice like this, a hundred years, two hundred years, or three hundred years later, the so-called unbearable emotional pain that she is experiencing now will be completely worn away over time.
Then she could start a new life.
Maybe she will meet a fairy who is also successful in her cultivation and gets along well with her, and start a new relationship and a new life.
"I will."
Shi Niang nodded and said, "I have learned a lot from following you during this period of time. You are much more mature than me in dealing with many things. In the future, I will be as cautious as you and always be steady."
She actually seemed to have grown up.
Xu Sheng also nodded.
Shi Niang turned and left.
"Shi Niang."
Xu Sheng looked at Shi Niang's back, thought for a moment and said, "Wait a minute."
"Little Chengyuan?"
Shi Niang turned to look at Xu Sheng, her beautiful eyes clearly showing black and white: "What's wrong?"
The mountain breeze blew her long hair against her fair cheeks.
Xu Sheng opened his mouth and hesitated for a while.
After thinking about it, I finally decided to tell her some information about the 'fake Guanyin Bodhisattva eating the enlightened people'.
Of course, I am not stupid enough to say that I saw the fake Guanyin Bodhisattva eating alms in my previous life.
Instead, he said that he had found a similar thing recorded in a text left behind by a senior practitioner in a cave.
After all, with Shi Niang's current cultivation level, it is estimated that it will soon mature!
If she continues like this, she might be eaten alive by the fake Bodhisattva Guanyin one day.
Although she said she would learn from Xu Sheng to be more steady in everything, she might not be able to remain steady when facing Guanyin Bodhisattva.
If the wine is eaten by the fake Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva, it will definitely strengthen the fake Avalokitesvara Bodhisattva.
This is equivalent to aiding the enemy!
So Xu Sheng decided to remind Shi Niang at this time.
In fact, Xu Sheng had another way at this time, which was to use the Great Taotie Technique to absorb most of the magic power of the brewing wine.
However, the two of them were partners who had walked side by side all the way, and it was inappropriate for Xu Shengqiang to absorb Shi Niang's magic power now.
So I can only remind her.
"What?"
Shi Niang was stunned and opened her cherry mouth wide, saying, "How is this possible?"
"You can believe what I said or not."
Xu Sheng said, "But I advise you to practice both your body and soul! The body is the foundation of a person! It's best to give up the practice of the method you got from Guanyin Bodhisattva! In addition, the most important thing is that I am taking the risk to remind you that even if you don't believe it, remember not to reveal it to others. Otherwise, once your Guanyin Bodhisattva knows that I know this, I may lose my life."
“This, this, this…”
Shi Niang felt dizzy and unbelievable. She looked at Xu Sheng with her beautiful eyes and asked, "How could this happen?"
This day.
She first had to endure Xuan Zhen's complete departure!
Now I can still hear Xu Sheng say such shocking information.
The image of the Bodhisattva Guanyin, whom she had always worshipped and revered, also collapsed.
The departure of a lover and the collapse of an idol were a double crush and blow.
"I believe you."
Of course, after Shi Niang frowned and thought for a while, he finally said, "Don't worry. I will be vigilant. I won't tell anyone about this matter."
"oh?"
Xu Sheng was surprised: "I thought you wouldn't believe it, and you might even scold me for defiling your admirers..."
"Because you, Xiao Chengyuan, have never hurt me. And we have been together for nearly fifty years."
Shi Niang said: "But Bodhisattva Guanyin is too mysterious. According to what you said, she is actually a demon cultivator pretending to be Bodhisattva Guanyin. That makes sense. She would be so diligent in enlightening the world..."
Xu Sheng nodded with some relief.
Shi Niang has finally grown up.
"Little Chengyuan."
Finally, when Shi Niang's long hair fluttered in the wind, she turned her eyes and said, "I'm leaving." Then she really left.
Although the two have common enemies, such as the fake Guanyin Bodhisattva and the mysterious existence above the ascension.
But Shi Niang still did not choose to stay with Xu Sheng and travel with him.
It was probably because she had shamelessly tried to throw herself at Xu Sheng in order to save Xuan Zhen, but was rejected, which made her feel a little embarrassed when she thought about it.
So I chose to leave.
Moreover, with Shi Niang's departure, they didn't know if they would have the chance to see each other again, or how many years would it take before they could see each other again? !
After all, Xu Sheng will continue to travel around the world to find those who have enlightened the fake Guanyin Bodhisattva.
Drain the magic power of these enlightened ones before they mature!
At the same time, we must also look for the trace of the little nun.
Find a way to rescue the little nun.
Of course, the whereabouts of the 'fake Guanyin Bodhisattva' and the little nun are unknown.
All of this needs to be found.
You never know when you'll find it.
Just do whichever thing you find first.
This also means that Xu Sheng may not return to Yunhu Temple for many, many years.
It was naturally impossible for Shi Niang to find Xu Sheng.
In this ancient world, there were no telephones, so once two people separated, they would be scattered among the crowd, and it would be extremely difficult to see each other again.
But Xu Sheng did not try to keep Shi Niang.
Just watched her leave.
After Shi Niang left, Xu Sheng also used his internal martial arts energy to move quickly through the mountains and forests.
He did not use any magic power to control the sword.
Although he has a very yang body, he cannot use his magic power carelessly.
After all, his enemies are very powerful!
The internal energy of martial arts is used relatively more wantonly.
However, even if he simply used the internal energy of martial arts, Xu Sheng's speed was still faster than the fastest cheetah!
"I wonder if my Great Gluttony Technique can absorb the power of that fake Bodhisattva Guanyin?"
At this time, Xu Sheng thought to himself: "But it shouldn't work. This girl is practicing magic. If I absorb her, I will explode! I can only absorb her enlightened ones."
But what Xu Sheng didn't expect was that after he came out of the mountain, before he found any fake Guanyin Bodhisattva's enlightenment, he actually found the trace of the little Taoist nun first!
