Refining Taoism and ascending to immortality

The magic weapons in this world are generally divided into magic weapons, spiritual weapons, mysterious weapons and real weapons.

Magic weapons are the most basic magic weapons. When they are used, they not only need true qi, but also need to be coordinated with formulas to exert their power.

Spiritual weapons are one step further. They have spirituality and can be moved at will by the mind. They are easier to control than magic weapons.

Mysterious weapons have reached the peak of spirituality, opened up spiritual consciousness, and have wisdom. They can adapt to changes without the instructions of cultivators.

Real weapons have spiritual consciousness transformation, and the weapon spirit has transcended the calamity and transformed into a human, and possess incredible power.

Zhou Qing has no idea about real weapons for the time being.

Because real weapons have powerful weapon spirits, most of them have existed for a long time and have a rebellious personality. If you are only at the Qi Refining Realm, the weapon spirit of the real weapon will not pay attention to you at all.

At this stage, the magic weapon that Zhou Qing needs most and is most suitable for is the mysterious weapon.

It’s just that the mysterious weapon is not easy to get.

On the one hand, there are few mysterious weapons. On the other hand, from the cultivators who have just entered the Tao to the real people who have condensed into the Nascent Soul, no one will refuse the mysterious weapon. With too many monks and too little porridge, it is even more difficult for people to obtain Xuanqi.

Zhou Qing himself is not only a direct descendant of the Luochuan Zhou family, a leader of the younger generation, but also a true disciple of the Zhenyi Sect, but he does not have a Xuanqi on him, which shows how difficult it is to obtain Xuanqi.

Only the cave immortals like Tianming Zhenren in the clan are willing to take out magic weapons of the level of Xuanqi and give them to the people below.

Zhou Chen sat quietly on the high platform, with a jade table in front of him, and an inkstone on the table. It was shaped like a crane, with wings spread in the rain, and fine and fragmented light was lingering, permeating a kind of quietness of the bamboo forest after the rain, slanting in front of him, he raised his hand, and a golden light flew out from the top door, and suddenly turned and arrived in front of the young man below.

"Next!"

Zhou Qing's eyes were already full of gold, shining brightly, with a faint jade sound. He subconsciously drew his spiritual sense, and the golden light that had already reached his eyebrows spun around, and a cloud flag appeared. The flag was spread out, and green lotuses bloomed, filled with a strange power that seemed to be there and not there, covering everything.

"Eastern Treasure Lotus Flag."

Zhou Qing's spiritual sense entered, and immediately communicated with the spiritual sense of the magic weapon, and learned the name of this treasure.

"Yes, it's the Eastern Treasure Lotus Flag." Zhou Chen's eyes fell on the cloud flag, looking at the green lotus on it. There were beads on the lotus, and the light was soft and very tough. He said: "It was made by imitating an extremely powerful real weapon. Although it does not have the power of killing, it is very unique in the first-class Xuanqi for defense and concealing the qi."

When Zhou Chen said this, his eyes moved to Zhou Qing and said: "Tianming Zhenren was originally going to give this Xuanqi to his descendants, but when he heard that you were going out to condense the pill, he changed his mind and gave it to you."

"With the protection of the Eastern Treasure Lotus Flag, you can go out and walk with peace of mind."

Zhou Qing nodded and put away the Xuanqi treasure flag, his eyes sparkling.

In the past, when the disciples of the Luochuan Zhou clan went out to travel to find the opportunity to condense the pill, Tianming Zhenren did not care, let alone take the initiative to give the Xuanqi magic weapon. Tianming Zhenren did this, he must still valued his competition with Wu Zhong and hoped that he could win the battle.

If you think about it this way, there is also pressure.

Now Tianming Zhenren and his family are so good to him. Once he loses the competition with Wu Zhong, the backlash will be so terrible. One is in the sky, the other is in the ground.

Zhou Chen looked at Zhou Qing and continued to speak, saying: "Don't think that everything will be fine if you have a mysterious weapon. There is no magic weapon in the world that can ensure everything is safe. Not to mention the mysterious weapon, even the best real weapon can't."

Zhou Qing nodded vigorously. When traveling outside, without the direct protection of the family and the sect, facing all kinds of dangers, natural disasters and man-made disasters, no one can be sure that they can be safe and sound.

For this, Zhou Qing knew it in his heart and said: "Sixth uncle, I am going out to travel to condense the pill this time. Condensing the pill is secondary. The first thing is to protect myself."

"If you keep the green mountains, you will not worry about having no firewood to burn."

"It's good that you understand."

Zhou Chen was happy that his nephew had such an understanding. The most feared thing about traveling to condense the pill is to ignore it and only advance without retreat. If something really happened, even if the sect will get back the place in the future, but the person is gone, nothing can be mentioned.

"In addition," Zhou Chen talked about his experience of condensing pills when he was away from home to Zhou Qing, and said, "When you go out, if there is a sect or family force in the local area, you should contact them first, report it, and prepare a case. If there is something, it will be easier to handle it."

"If there is no sect or our Luochuan Zhou family's power outside, if there is something, you can contact the Xuanmen fellows around you."

Speaking of this, Zhou Chen paused, and the skylight outside came through the patterned gaps in the large glass window, crashed into the hall, lingered in front of the jade table, and did not dissipate for a long time. Just looking at it, it was as if you could hear the sound of nature turning light.

"Xuanmen fellows?"

Zhou Qing raised his eyebrows. Whether in the last life or this life, he had few opportunities to deal with Xuanmen fellows.

Zhou Chen saw the doubts in his nephew's heart. He waved the jade ruyi in his hand, and the blue and white flowers bloomed in the light, swaying gracefully. He smiled and said, "Contacting and cooperating with fellow Xuanmen practitioners does not mean that you can trust him completely. You need to make your own judgment. However, there are rules and regulations between fellow Xuanmen practitioners. If you are just and right, it is still easy to do things."

It is impossible for everything to be harmonious among the Xuanmen practitioners, but at least they will abide by the rules and morality on the surface. Especially in the public eye, they will not easily break the rules.

It is easier to cooperate if you abide by the rules, understand morality, and follow the order.

Otherwise, like the Demon Sect, they are unconstrained by moral rules, are selfish, turn their backs on others, and find it difficult to cooperate. Because when you cooperate, you have to be prepared in every possible way, and be careful of backstabbing from your "companions"!

"I'll give it a try."

Zhou Qing understood the reason, but he still felt that he had to experience it personally to understand it better.

"I've said everything that needs to be said." Zhou Chen talked about his other experiences, then waved his hand, took out a sleeve bag from the jade table, threw it to Zhou Qing, and said: "It contains the items given by the clan. Take a look at what you have prepared.”

Zhou Qing took it and opened it to see that there were magical instruments, array diagrams, elixirs, etc., etc., and the one on top was a bamboo slip with texture and shining like the full moon.

Subconsciously, Zhou Qing took out the bamboo slip and placed it in his palm.

"This is a map drawn by our tribe when they were traveling outside. Many places that ordinary people don't know are also marked." Zhou Chen didn't care about other items, but he focused on the bamboo slips and said. : "During this period, please read it carefully and keep it in mind. After reading it, the bamboo slips need to be destroyed."

"Okay, Uncle Six."

Zhou Qing looked solemn after hearing this.

When traveling abroad, it is most dangerous if you are a complete stranger and your eyesight is black. And if you are familiar with it, you will have confidence and be much safer.

As a true disciple of the sect, if you decide to travel, the sect will also give you a map, but it is only a popular map. In some aspects, it is definitely not as detailed as the continuous exploration of generations of your own clan.

"There are a lot of things inside. Take a good look at it. It will definitely be helpful when you travel." Zhou Chen gave a final warning, waved his hand, and sent Zhou Qing away, saying: "You should go back to your cave first. Remember before you leave, Report to the sect once. As the true successor of the sect, the sect will also make arrangements."

"yes."

Zhou Qing responded, said goodbye and left. He went outside, summoned his Feigong, and went up to the sky.

Zhou Chen watched Zhou Qing leave and looked at the sky above. Only the treasures of Fei Palace were left in place, condensing and not dispersing. He smiled, and with a change of thought, a rainbow light rose from the ground and carried him. His body disappeared in the blink of an eye.

When he reappeared, he had already reached a hanging peak. The golden fire penetrated down and rubbed against the atmosphere, forming countless red halos. At a glance, it looked like thousands of flaming lotus flowers blooming, covering it.

Zhou Chen glanced at it and continued to move forward. The door of the Taoist temple at the top of the peak was open. He walked straight in, saluted the old man sitting above, and said, "Third uncle."

Zhou Sheng was sitting on the high platform, above the top door, astral clouds were rising, and the black and white light wheels were rising and falling, with an inexplicable meaning. He looked at Zhou Chen and said, "Did you give everything to that little guy?"

"Yes." Zhou Chen nodded and said: "I gave everything I could give, and I also explained what should be explained. It seems that it won't be long before Zhou Qing will leave the sect to travel and go out to look for opportunities to condense pills."

Zhou Chen thought about it and said, "I hope he can come back smoothly."

He brought Zhou Qing back to the tribe from Jingchen Mountain. On the one hand, Zhou Qing had good qualifications. On the other hand, it was also because Zhou Qing was related to a major event in their tribe. Therefore, at first, he was not interested in Zhou Qing, the so-called tribe. My nephew is helpful, but most of all, his interests come first.

But now, after getting along for a long time and helping him a lot, plus Zhou Qing really strives for success and has made great progress all the way, and has stood out among the entire Luochuan Zhou clan, he really has feelings for Zhou Qing like a son and a nephew.

Zhou Sheng could tell. He looked into the distance with a faint look and said: "Apart from you, there is Zhou Qing at the bottom of our branch. The rest are nothing. The matter of Zhou Qing's pill condensation is not only his own business, but also ours." It’s about this one.”

"But we have done what we should do. The rest is up to Zhou Qing himself. It is impossible to have everything under control when going out to condense the elixir. If you are afraid of risks, stay in the sect and advance to the golden elixir realm. alright."

Zhou Chen shook his head, knowing that Zhou Qing could not stay in the sect to condense the pill. Apart from anything else, Wuzhong went out early to look for opportunities to condense pills. How could he stay in the sect when his competitors were like this?

"Zhou Qing."

Zhou Chen raised his eyebrows. Considering his rival Wuzhong, and considering that the two were competing to become the disciple of Master Guande, Zhou Qing's trip this time not only had to successfully condense the elixir, but also the elixir must be of high quality.

Compared with ordinary true disciples, he is under greater pressure.

Of course, once he succeeds, the benefits Zhou Qing will receive are far beyond what ordinary true disciples can compare with.

Everything depends on Zhou Qing himself.

Speaking of Zhou Qing, after returning to Taihe Island, he first sent someone to visit Changqingyuan in the sect and told him about his upcoming trip. Then he locked himself in a quiet room and used the true air to nourish himself. After being tempered in the earth-fire oven, the natal magic weapon, the Sea-Swallowing Gourd, took on a new look. On the one hand, he looked through the bamboo slips he got from his branch of the clan.

Fortunately, he was born with two souls, and he was able to do two things at once, and each had its own division of labor without any confusion.

"The magic weapon of destiny."

There was a strange light shining in Zhou Qing's eyes.

He had known that after successfully refining the natal magic weapon, it would be helpful for him to practice Xuan Gong. But he did not expect that even in its current semi-finished state, the Sea-Swallowing Sky-Swallowing Gourd sinking into the Dan Sea would naturally refine the Dragon Transformation Qi and slowly and firmly promote the progress of Xuan Gong.

It is conceivable that when the last treasure of heaven and earth is completed, the sea-swallowing gourd is truly complete, how much it will promote the "Yuanhuang Dragon Transformation Picture".

As for the contents of the bamboo slips obtained from the clan, Zhou Qing kept remembering them in his soul, and his eyes became brighter and brighter as he read them.

"Family inheritance."

After reading the contents of the bamboo slips, Zhou Qing sighed secretly. Only a family like the Luochuan Zhou family could travel, dig, record, and organize from generation to generation.

Generation after generation, until now, the contents inside are not only all-encompassing, but also very detailed, with many details that ordinary people don't know.

Zhou Qing knew that when walking outside, if he really encountered something, it would be an advantage and confidence.

In this way, Zhou Qing practiced while reading the bamboo slips, and the days passed quickly.

One day, there was a loud noise outside, and then the sky was full of golden flowers, like a rainbow bridge. Later, five divine steeds pulled out a gorgeous treasure chariot, with a canopy on it, and a middle-aged man sitting faintly below. A cloud rose on the top of the head, showing the realm of the Nascent Soul level.

When the treasure chariot arrived at the gate of Taihe Island, a middle-aged man walked down from it. He wore a lotus crown on his head, a robe embroidered with the pattern of Changqing Court, and a Changqing Court Elder Order hung on his waist. His eyes were deep and impressive.

In front of the middle-aged man, there were eight boys and girls standing with their hands hanging down.

Such momentum inevitably alarmed Taihe Island. When Zhong Wen came out, he learned that the elders of the Yuanying Zhenren level of Changqing Court had arrived, and hurried to the back to inform the owner of the house.

"The elders of Changqing Court."

Zhou Qing heard it and made a judgment. He went out in person and welcomed the group into the island.

"This blessed land is well managed."

Elder Lin from Changqing Court came along and saw the prosperity of the cave house, and praised it from the bottom of his heart.

As a new disciple of the true teaching, it is not easy to reach this level of cave house. It must be said that it is indeed different from ordinary true teachings with the support of a big family like Luochuan Zhou.

Zhou Qing smiled but said nothing. The Luochuan Zhou clan behind him had indeed invested a lot in his blessed land of Taihe Island.

After Elder Lin said a few words, he straightened his expression and got to the point, asking, "Zhou Qing, as a true disciple of the sect, I came here this time to ask you a question. Have you decided to go out and travel to condense the pill?"
