Chapter 71 Leading the way and breaking the miasma
In order to walk faster, Li Mingyue did not just walk, but bought a carriage and drove north by herself.
In fact, riding a horse would be faster and save a lot of money, but Li Mingyue really couldn't ride a horse, so he could only spend more money.
But after all, Li Mingyue cares about money, not to mention that all the money was pawned for his favorite objects, and when he comes back from the capital of Qi Kingdom, he will have to pay out a total of 27,000 gold. Li Mingyue feels distressed just thinking about it.
Therefore, save if you can. There is no other way to go north. It is better to ride a horse when going south. It doesn't matter whether you wear fresh clothes and angry horses. The main thing is to save money. So while driving north, Li Mingyue will try to learn to ride a horse whenever there is a chance.
Riding a horse is actually not difficult. Li Mingyue learned it quickly. However, as time went by, his buttocks started to hurt. This was when the benefits of a horse-drawn carriage became apparent.
It was also at this time that Li Mingyue regretted that he did not enter the martial realm in one go. If he entered the martial realm, he could fly with a sword, fly thousands of miles in a day, and be free in the world. There is no need to suffer like this now? It's just that there are some things. If you miss it, you will miss it.
, just like when Li Mingyue didn't set foot on Tianquan Mountain. Things like realm are suppressed, not that they can be improved if they want to.
One realm difference, one step away, but I don't know how many young geniuses have been blocked. This small step has become an obstacle that countless practitioners cannot overcome throughout their lives.
Li Mingyue was actually deeply touched by this point. First, there was an obstacle in the fourth realm, and then there was an obstacle in the eighth realm. After two times, Li Mingyue, who was originally full of confidence, began to become less confident, and began to feel that it was true.
It's because my talent is too poor.
Moreover, the higher the level, the more difficult it is to climb. Therefore, Li Mingyue had suppressed his level before. If he wants to break through to the martial state in the future, he still doesn’t know how much effort, blood and sweat he will have to put in.
They say impulsiveness is the devil, but sometimes being too cautious is not a good thing.
Of course, if you don't miss it, you will miss it, so there is nothing to worry about. In fact, Li Mingyue has always believed that suppressing the realm in the first place is not necessarily a bad thing.
Both the woman in the bell and senior sister Su Qingfeng have said the importance of the ninth level of the spiritual body realm, so the more solid the foundation is laid, the further the road can go in the future.
Su Qingfeng said that with Li Mingyue's talent, he could only reach the martial realm at most. The woman in the bell also said that the Guiyuan realm was Li Mingyue's end, but Li Mingyue actually wanted to go further, so for the spirit body
From that time on, Li Mingyue paid special attention to the ninth level of the realm.
Therefore, from the beginning when there was no progress in the basic Taoist teachings for more than ten years, to later practicing in the Three Realms, and later to forcibly practicing the natal magic weapon, and directly entering the subtleties, Li Mingyue has always been a little unsure, and has always been worried.
This was the biggest factor that forced him to suppress his realm this time.
This time Li Mingyue didn't walk in such a hurry, but moved forward in a planned way. For example, he set a certain distance to walk every day. Once he reached the set distance, he would stop and rest. This was actually because he had been traveling without stopping for the past three months.
, although it brought huge benefits to Li Mingyue and entered the realm of divine illumination in one fell swoop, the trauma it caused was actually not small.
This is the case in anything you do, going too far is too much, and when it comes to spiritual practice, it's even more impossible to be careless.
When Li Mingyue stops, he will practice the Nine Swords of Taihua. At the same time, he will study the talismans given to him by his senior sister when he left Qingyuan Mountain, and the eight talismans he got when he rescued the Fox Clan woman.
Golden Lock Formation.
Li Mingyue has always carried this thing with her, but Li Mingyue is actually a little repelled by it. Firstly, because this thing comes from Taoism. All the previous things have given Li Mingyue a bad impression of Taoism; secondly, because this thing is too decent.
It was entirely created against evil spirits, and Li Mingyue really didn't like it.
But now Li Mingyue already knows that to save her mother, she must not only learn Taoist magic, but also ghost Tao magic, and that kind of rejection has disappeared. Moreover, the woman in the bell said that the magic itself has no
The key to whether a spell is good or bad lies in the person who uses it. Li Mingyue has always felt that it makes sense.
In fact, even a woman from the Fox tribe who had been suppressed by the Eight-Door Golden Lock Formation for countless years did not have much objection to the Eight-Door Golden Lock Formation after escaping from the trap, which shows that she actually recognized this magical power.
It’s just that I don’t recognize the great Taoist masters.
In this way, when Li Mingyue stopped, he learned various magic arts and supernatural powers. When he was on the road, he would sit in the carriage and take out Confucian classics to read aloud, covering mountains and rivers, Confucian classics, reading thousands of books, and traveling thousands of miles.
conduct.
This is a long process, but Li Mingyue believes that as long as he walks, step by step, thousands of miles of mountains and rivers will be completed, and as long as he reads, he will also finish reading ten thousand books.
On this day, Li Mingyue stopped to rest in a forest. While practicing the Nine Swords of Taihua, she asked: "Senior, what is the true meaning of these nine swords?"
The woman in the bell said calmly: "Practice sword as long as you practice sword. It doesn't matter what the true meaning is. The more you practice, it will be whatever you think it is. If you blindly pursue the so-called true meaning left by the predecessors, then in the end, the most you can do is to practice sword."
It’s so boring to repeat the original thing.”
Li Mingyue was stunned.
The woman in the bell said: "Although I don't like you humans, you all think very highly of yourself. Once you gain some ability, you will act like I am invincible in the world, and you will deserve a beating. Therefore, when I first walked in this world, I
I beat up a lot of self-righteous guys, but there is a guy among you humans who practices swordsmanship, and he said something that I really agree with."
Li Mingyue followed the words and asked, "What?"
Bell Dang Li's woman said: "He said that whether you practice swordsmanship, learn boxing, or even do anything, you need to imitate and copy at the beginning, but in the end you have to walk your own path. Only in this way can you
To surpass those who came before us.”
Li Mingyue said: "That must be an amazing person."
The woman in the bell said: "Bullshit, just talk about it. In the end, I never took that step. In the final analysis, I am still timid. Compared with Chen Daoling, I am far behind."
Li Mingyue was stunned.
The woman in the bell seemed to have no intention of saying anything more, and fell silent.
In fact, she wanted to say that if Li Mingyue could set foot on Tianquan Mountain back then, she might be able to become the second Chen Daoling, but she couldn't say this. And she actually didn't think there was anything good about becoming the second Chen Daoling.
Isn't it just ascending? What's so great about it? If she thought about it, she would have already crossed that threshold and wouldn't be suppressed and suffer in this chaos.
When she thought about this, she became a little angry and said angrily: "Don't disturb me if you have nothing to do in the future. If you have any problems, come and ask me."
Li Mingyue had already learned about this woman's strange temper, so naturally she didn't dare to say anything or think about anything, and concentrated on practicing her sword.
With this woman's explanation, Li Mingyue no longer had any distracting thoughts, nor did he think about the true meaning of the nine swords. Anyway, he just practiced it, and whatever he practiced was nothing.
After walking for another two days, Li Mingyue came across a swamp filled with thick fog. At first, Li Mingyue didn't think there was anything wrong with it, but the further she walked, the more she felt something was wrong, so she took out a talisman from her arms and poured it into the real swamp.
After breathing out the energy, the runes on the talisman began to emit golden light, floated up on their own, and flew forward.
This is an ordinary guiding talisman, and it is also a talisman that must be learned by Taoist disciples. The function of this talisman is very simple, that is, it can be used when encountering something like a phantom formation or the ghost wall that the people at the foot of the mountain call a wall.
When Li Mingyue met the Fox tribe woman, Su Qingfeng used this kind of talisman.
Of course, this kind of talisman is not of high grade, so its effect is actually very limited. If it encounters a powerful formation or an evil spirit with high magic power, it will lose its effect and will be burned directly.
After the talisman appeared, it floated for a distance in front of the carriage, then burned directly and disappeared in the mist in an instant.
Li Mingyue frowned slightly and simply stopped the carriage, because there was no point in continuing at this time.
He took out another higher-grade talisman from his arms, this time it was a miasma-breaking talisman. Compared with the guiding talisman, the miasma-breaking talisman was more domineering. The guiding talisman could only guide people in the direction of travel, but the miasma-breaking talisman was not.
It can directly break through the confusion and find out where the caster is.
The two talismans that Su Qingfeng used at the beginning were the same. The first one was the guiding talisman. After it lost its effect, he used the miasma-breaking talisman, which not only allowed Li Mingyue to track the little fox, but also found the cave.
What happened next.
As the Miasma Breaking Talisman appeared, the mist around the talisman dispersed on its own as if it had encountered something terrible, and then the talisman rushed directly to somewhere ahead.
Li Mingyu left the carriage directly, holding the Sanqing Sword in his hand, and followed the talisman closely.
The further forward, the heavier Li Mingyue's face became, because the surrounding scenery had obviously changed. Although it was still a swamp, the soil under his feet was soft. If it weren't for the overgrown aquatic plants, it would be impossible to stand.
Looking around again, the trees have completely withered, and due to the effect of the fog, they look desolate and desolate.
Although there was a miasma-breaking talisman to disperse the fog, Li Mingyue still took out a pill and held it in his mouth, just in case.
These fogs are obviously very corrosive, otherwise the trees would not be like this. As for why the grass underfoot is not affected, Li Mingyue can't figure it out for a while, but one thing is for sure, these fogs will not appear for too long.
, this can be seen from the degree of corrosion of those trees.
Li Mingyue had actually seen such a scene before, and it was almost the same as when he was at Mao'er Mountain. So Li Mingyue's first thought was whether it was because some people who practiced ghost ways had arranged some formations here and wanted to refine them here.
What an evil thing.
Ahead, the speed of the talisman began to slow down, and the luster on it gradually dimmed, and finally disappeared completely. Without the support of the runes, the talisman instantly turned into ashes and disappeared.
