70.Red plate
On the twelfth day of May, at night
As in the previous days, Shen Shi came to the seaside in the middle of the night and looked at the vast sea, which seemed to be surging endlessly.
He looked at it quietly for a while, then sat down on his knees by the tree and recited the formula of water archery in his mind.
Water archery is one of the most common first-order techniques among the five element techniques. It has been handed down in the world for many years. Of course, the magic formula here has been refined for thousands of years, and it is impossible to find out anything wrong with the realm of Shen Shi.
In fact, Shen Shi doesn't have this idea at all. What he thinks is an idea that has puzzled him and seduced him secretly since last night.
From the very beginning, the magic formula of water archery was to go deep into the qi channels of the whole body to urge and gather spiritual power. Only when the friars reached the Ningyuan state, did the magic formula have a second way of moving, that is, only to go to the Jade Mansion to extract spiritual power. At that time, it would be very simple, but the friars in the gas refining state could not do it.
Shen Shi has been using the first method since he began to practice water archery. But at this moment, he finally bit his teeth, closed his eyes and began to use the water archery formula slowly after a few slightly rapid breaths revealed his worries.
Second, the method that can only be used by the friars in Ningyuan state
No one has ever used this kind of magic formula when they were in the refining region, because the friars in the refining region have no jade mansion at all. Where can they gather spiritual power? However, Shen Shi began to practice, but the difference was that he changed the direction of the secret, and the place where he drew spiritual power straight up to his head was at the mysterious Meixinqiao acupoint.
The Holy Power scattered in the whole body's qi channels did not seem to be disturbed at all. It was lazily scattered in the same place as Ping Yue, and Shen Shi's mind was completely in the middle of his eyebrows. When the magic formula of water archery came, he suddenly felt a slight pain in his eyebrows, and the Holy Power hidden here even shook.
This is the first time that his spiritual power in the middle of his eyebrows has changed since he began to practice the Qingxin Mantra!
Shen Shi was both surprised and happy, and a little uneasy, but he finally persevered and tried to see if his bold attempt would bear fruit.
Sure enough, under the influence of the water archery method, the originally dormant Holy Power at the eyebrow center seemed to scratch at once, and the Holy Power here was far more solid than that at all parts of the body's qi veins. Seriously, it looked a little like the appearance of the Jade Mansion after the Qi Sea opened by the friars in Ningyuan.
The spiritual power in the eyebrow center is getting more and more powerful, but Shen Shi doesn't feel any other discomfort after the initial pain, which makes him gradually relieved and more bold to try to extract the spiritual power in the eyebrow center.
After about five to six breaths, suddenly he felt his mind suddenly relaxed, and a spirit force was finally drawn from the eyebrows, and then suddenly it was like a galloping horse, passing through the sky suddenly, going down the chest, straight into the right hand qi, and rushing to the palm. It was as fast as lightning, but after a moment, he felt the palm cool. When he opened his eyes again, there was a crystal water flow in the eyes and palm.
Five interest or six interest?
Shen Shi stared at the water flow, and his whole body and mind seemed to have been occupied by joy. With a wave of his palm, the water flow broke through the air and hit a sand ground unstoppably, just like yesterday. A big dark hole was blown out with a bang.
Shen Shi slowly stood up, walked to the black hole, stared deeply, and smiled.
※※※
Seven days later, that is, May 19th.
On this day, Shen Shi got up early as usual and walked out of the cave. He was greeted by blue sky, white clouds and blue sea. He stood by the roadside and looked at the sea. After a while, as expected, the stone gate of the cave next door opened, and Sun You came out yawning.
Shen Shi looked at him and smiled, "Why, did you practice all night last night?"
Sun You curled his mouth and said, "It's not that exaggerated. Anyway, I can only cultivate a little spiritual power. If I practice once or twice, I can reach the sky."
Shen Shi said, "How are you doing?"
Sun You sighed and said, "After half a month of practice, the fireball congealed. But it was really troublesome to gather spirits in the previous step, which took me half a day each time. It seems that I will have to wait a while to catch demons."
Shen Shi pondered for a moment and said, "Well, I want to have a try these two days."
Sun You was stunned and turned to look at him. "What?"
Shen Shi shrugged his shoulders, and Sun You frowned: "Don't do anything wrong. It's risky to catch demons. I heard my brother-in-law said that although there are senior brothers on duty, over the years there have been fellow disciples who have been injured on the island. They even hurt the Taoist profession seriously, and their lives are in danger." At this point, he paused for a moment, and then looked at Shen Shi with some surprise,
"Is it difficult? The water archery you have learned can be cast at ten breaths?"
Shen Shi hesitated for a moment and smiled, "Almost."
Sun You opened his mouth wide. After a while, he said, "I can't see that you have such a talent in the five elements..."
Shen Shi shook his head and said with a smile, "That's all. Besides, the herring island is in the sea and has abundant water vapor, which is very helpful to me."
Sun You suddenly clapped his hands and said, "Yes, why didn't I think of this? I was stupid enough to choose some kind of fireball. I should have chosen some kind of water rocket."
Shen Shi said with a smile: "You don't have to regret it. There are six or seven optional techniques in the world, all of which are fireball techniques. Of course, it has its own reason. This technique is the most widely used and has the strongest power among the first level techniques. It will be beneficial after you finish your training. By the way, are you going to go with me?"
Sun You hesitated for a moment, then shook his head and said, "It's too early for me to finish my fireball skill. I really want to go there to catch demons. I'm afraid it will become a burden for you. You'd better go first. But remember to be careful. The monsters and ghosts on the island are all ferocious and have no family name. There's no need to get hurt for any Lingjing."
Shen Shi nodded and said, "I know."
Sun You smiled and turned to walk away. Shen Shi made great progress in the practice of the Five Element Method, which really surprised him. But as Shen Shi said, that's exactly what happened. No matter how talented the Five Element Method is, the future achievements will be the same. In the final analysis, the most important foundation for the world's friars today is to begin to cultivate all kinds of Taoist powers when they arrive at Ningyuan, which is the basis. So Sun You has no sense of urgency at all.
Shen Shi walked with the him side by side and didn't say anything more. In fact, he naturally hid some things in his heart, so he shouldn't speak lightly to others. Since his first attempt to use the spiritual power at the center of his eyebrows to launch water archery was successful seven days ago, he has stepped up his practice of this unexpected gain in the dead of night every day. After seven days of training, his casting speed became faster and faster. At last, even he was shocked, and he was able to cast a water archery in just three breaths.
What is the result of three breath casting?
You should know that even the friars in Ningyuan state who have opened the Jade Mansion, the fastest casting speed is almost at three breaths, and this is a friar with good talent. Generally speaking, even the friars in Ningyuan state cast the five element technique at four breaths.
But Shen Shi is now just a small friar in the middle level of the gas refining realm.
Sometimes, Shen Shi can't help thinking that this mysterious and strange power of eyebrows is like a sea of Qi in the Jade Mansion?
If not, how could you draw spiritual power from it and cast the Five Element Method so quickly?
But everyone in the world and all friars under ten thousand years know that there is no possibility to open up the Jade Mansion gas sea without reaching the Ningyuan state. This truth proved by countless facts can never be wrong, so Shen Shi can only attribute it to the magical Qingxin Mantra with the seven leaf golden sunflower picture sealed.
Anyway, at the moment, the Qingxin Mantra is really a magic spell.
At the herring fair, Sun You and Shen Shi separated, and Shen Shi went straight to the White Crane Hall. It was as busy as before, and there were a lot of people in front of the five boards. Shen Shi squeezed over and walked past the white board. He paused a little in front of the green board. He looked at the sparse crowd, hesitated for a moment, and then continued to move forward.
After the green board, there is the red board.
The number of people standing in front of the red board is obviously much less than the two boards in front. At a glance, there are only about ten people standing here, and all of them are young people in their twenties. It is obvious that they were the elder martial brothers who worshipped Lingxiao Sect last time.
When they heard the footsteps coming to the red board, several people turned their heads, but after seeing Shen Shi, they were all surprised. When the newcomers first came to the island three years ago, many young people were curious and would go to the back of the board to look at it. But three years later, everyone was already familiar with the rules. Generally, few newcomers came to Red Board. After all, the task at the level of Red Board is very difficult, and it often requires at least high-level disciples of the gas refining realm to do it.
However, everyone was surprised and didn't pay attention to it. In the final analysis, the island still depends on personal cultivation. If we don't know each other, no one has the leisure to remind others that the task here is difficult.
Shen Shi naturally saw some contempt in the eyes of several senior brothers, but he didn't care too much. He walked slowly to the red board and looked up at the board.
The number of notes posted here is much less than that on the whiteboard. There are probably less than 20 pieces of notes. That is, there are probably less than 20 tasks that can be posted on the red board. Shen Shi found the task of catching demons for a while and soon found it.
This is a piece of paper twice the size of the surrounding task note, which is quite conspicuous on the red board. It says that the requirements are very simple, to the effect that you can go to the fifth island among the herring islands, the island where the demon catching hole is located, which is commonly known as the demon island, to catch or kill monsters and ghosts, and bring back some of their spiritual materials.
The task requirements are very simple, but there is a long line of text below the terms, which is why this piece of paper is much larger than other pieces of paper. These lines of words clearly indicate the names and characteristics of various Holy materials, which monster or ghost they come from, and which hall they need. After getting the Holy materials, they should go to the corresponding hall to pay and get the reward.
The demon hunting task is also a rare task issued by all the halls in the White Crane Hall on the Black Fish Island. Shen Shi stands in front of this note and counts carefully. He finds that there are 55 kinds of Holy materials that can be obtained from that demon island.
