Chapter 709: Returning Satisfied

~16 min read 3,042 words

Under the respectful send-off of a group of Cui family members, he left the island. Cui Jueyin stood on the heavenly light, feeling a little sad, but Li Ximing had no time to pay attention to him. He read 【Returning and Folding Hundred Arrays Trapping Body】 again and again, and had a deeper realization of this secret method. "It's like choosing a paragraph from 【Returning and Folding】, omitting eight words out of ten, incomplete, but it can echo the content of 'Body-Suppressing Tiger Pass Treasure Classic', and it can barely be practiced."

"If you change to an immortal foundation... and use it on 'Yetian Gate', it probably won't be practiced."

He had already calculated in his heart: "【Returning and Folding Hundred Arrays Trapping Body】 cannot be used on 'Yetian Gate', but my family's 【Returning and Folding】 can probably be used on every immortal foundation. With these nine secret methods in hand, no matter what technique is taken for the Mingyang path, my family has nine that can be practiced!"

"The imperial clan of the past was nothing more than this!"

He smiled awkwardly because he complained that the secret method was too simple earlier. He took out a jade slip from his robe, his face thoughtful and solemn, as if he was considering some extremely important divine ability move, which made Cui Jueyin dare not speak, but he muttered in his heart:

"What is this?"

This jade slip records his understanding of the 【Yangyuan】 secret method, nearly 100,000 words. According to the previous comparison, it is not grinding wheat or cooking pastries, but to the point of teaching people how to swallow without choking.

Now he felt ashamed, and slandered: "In the past, the Dao lineage in the family was incomplete, and my Dao practice in the Mingyang path was not much higher than that of a loose cultivator. If this secret method was placed in the clan, I wouldn't dare to write my own name... I'm afraid that later generations would see it and say, dignified Zhaojing, the first True Person of the Li family, why did he write nearly 100,000 words of stupid words over and over again."

He wanted to throw it away casually, but felt it was a pity, so he found a place to sign his name and casually added the title of 【Gufeng True Person】. Only then did he put it into his sleeve. Cui Jueyin saw his calm expression, as if he had made some determination, and sighed in his heart:

"How hard it is to guess the True Person's mind... His own help must have given this True Person more certainty."

This small episode passed, and Li Ximing finally began to ponder the origin of the "Minghua Jinyang Huangyuan Classic".

"Nine secret methods, but only a fifth-grade technique! The bestowal method of the Immortal Appraisal... what is the reason for it?"

The "Minghua Jinyang Huangyuan Classic" was bestowed upon Li Zhouwei. This Bai Lin, who was obtained by the Li family in a hundred years, had a different natural atmosphere. The nine secret methods were obviously because of him, but the "Minghua Jinyang Huangyuan Classic" was only fifth-grade.

"According to the examples of Jiangqian and Quewan, the technique and the secret method seem to be bestowed separately... Minghuang has a different life number, so the secret method has the extreme number of nine..."

He guessed for the time being, and gradually had a certain estimate in his heart. He flew back all the way. The wind and waves on the sea became bigger and bigger. Several swimming fish shuttled on the sea surface. Occasionally, a few monsters rose up, were brushed by the heavenly light under his feet, and immediately turned into ashes.

Li Ximing is not what he used to be. The heavenly light between his eyebrows fluctuates, connecting to the Great Void, secretly perceiving the changes in spiritual energy, and calculating: "The further southeast, the more intense the changes in spiritual energy..."

"Water descending and thunder rising is a matter for the True Monarch. Meddling in other people's business will inevitably lead to disaster. Even if you have cultivated divine abilities, there are not many places you can go."

He calculated the direction far away. It seemed to be near Shiqi Island. The East Sea was the territory of the dragon clan. Without certainty, he was too lazy to wander around. He steered the wind back all the way and went to the territory of Wangyue Lake in the sea.

"It's just that the spring water of Shiqi is a bit miraculous. When things are settled one day, I can go for a stroll."

The Great Void is undulating everywhere. Cui Jueyin saw the Great Void in the records for the first time and observed it with curiosity. Li Ximing obtained a good subordinate and continued his Dao path. He was in a beautiful mood, didn't waste time, took out Changxi's "Guanxie Guo Shentong Fire Refining" and read it.

Hearing the name "Guanxie Guo Shentong Fire Refining", it is obviously not a masterpiece of contemporary cultivators. This way of naming like spells and insights is somewhat similar to the "Six Chapters Seeking Immortals" and other methods obtained by his elders from the Qingsong Cave Heaven. It is very likely that it is at least something from that era.

Li Ximing flipped through it. Most of it talks about mysterious methods, using high platforms for sacrifice, various spiritual objects, Li Fire, Sha Qi, and multiple cultivators with cultivation to assist in refining the embryo, practicing day and night to refine it.

He looked carefully, and the description of the so-called cultivators with cultivation is 【Qi Sea floating light, not reaching Rising Sun, slightly miraculous, not reaching divine ability】.

"This is a Foundation Establishment cultivator... The ancients have a big tone."

Li Ximing slandered for a while, and looking at this appearance, it requires twelve Foundation Establishments, six alternating, and the immortal foundation of Foundation Establishment cannot conflict with the spiritual embryo. For example, if refining Mingyang magic tools, it cannot be Jueyin, Xi Qi, and it is best not to be Kan Water among Water Virtue.

"Fortunately, my family doesn't flourish in these two paths."

Li Ximing paused slightly, but noticed this Kan Water. It is said that the only possible conflict is Kan Water. His family has many Kan Water techniques and has practiced them. Logically speaking, there is no principle of mutual generation and restraint between Mingyang and Kan Water. He now has some Dao practice and secretly guessed:

"Li Fire and Mingyang are on the same path, Li Fire and Kan Water are opposite, I am afraid this is the reason."

He threw away the thought, moved in his heart, and chose the spiritual embryo.

He doesn't have many Foundation Establishment magic tools in his hands. The Jianyang Ring is hard to figure out, and it has the names of Qingsong Guan cultivators on it, so naturally, he can't take it out. Excluding a few that are not useful, the only ones qualified to be spiritual embryos are 【Chongming Dongxuan Screen】, 【Yangli Chique Flag】, and 【Xuanwen Bottle】.

【Chongming Dongxuan Screen】 is hard to figure out. It is likely that it is something of the Sun path at the root. It is one of the few ancient magic tools of his family that can be determined. Li Ximing feels that this thing is unusual and must have mysteries, so he has always cherished it.

Another ancient magic tool is the 【Xuanwen Bottle】. This magic tool does not have the power to suppress, but has been valued by the Li family for its miraculous changes. Except for this 【Xuanwen Bottle】, the Li family has never seen a magic tool that changes with the owner. It seems that the miracles are endless, showing the superb skills of the ancients.

"Since the Xuanwen Bottle is a thing of the Wei Li, it is very likely that it can be used as a Mingyang magic tool. You can try it. Even if this set of magic tools doesn't work, it's not difficult to exchange for a top-level Mingyang magic tool from them after the Qingchi Zifu enters the Dongli Cave Heaven."

Heaven and Earth in the Appraisal.

Hua Su Yuan Ming Sheng Qing Tai Yin Mansion.

In the mysterious hall, Tai Yin gushes, everywhere is the pattern of gold stamen and laurel, bright moon lamp stand, cold snow piled up, the images of jade rabbits and toads can be seen everywhere. Several snowflakes hang down, and a person walks through the mansion with sleeves tucked.

This teenager has a broad forehead, lush beard and hair, hanging down from both cheeks, a white face, light green eyes, and wave patterns painted on both sleeves. He turned to a place in the courtyard and sat down. Seeing someone sitting with him in the mansion, this person said:

"Lord Liu, do you have any connections in the lower world? When will Lord Li return?"

The other party is a white-clothed immortal official. Hearing his words, he just shook his head and replied:

"Time passes in the lower world, and the years are unknown. If he has cultivated the Dao, it may be thousands of years, there is no reason to be so fast."

"Alas! Thousands of years? It will tire me to death!"

Hearing this, the teenager felt sad from his heart and stayed in place in a daze.

This person is naturally Dangjiang. He has been compiling spells here for I don't know how long, drilling day and night, writing until his mouth was dry, and the cabinet was still constantly bubbling out jade slips, endless.

Dangjiang is not a diligent person to begin with, and compiling spells is a heavy task, day and night without rest. It was not easy to get a break, and he came out to ask about the news of this Li Xianguan, which was simply a head-on blow.

He sat blankly for a while, with no intention to appreciate the flying snow in the mansion, but the Liu Xianguan Liu beside him stood up with a swoosh and said respectfully:

"Pays respects to the Lord!"

Dangjiang hurriedly raised his head and saw a cold-faced silver-armored immortal general standing by the courtyard, both sides like shaved, and the teenager stood up immediately, sighing: "Pays respects to the Immortal General!"

This person is naturally the Tai Yin Su Ming Immortal General Lord Lord Zhengao! He Dangjiang came here and was thrown into this ghost place by Lord Lord Zhengao, working day and night, but there are very few people here, one by one, they don't like to talk, and there is no way to find Lord Lord Zhengao. Dangjiang had long been suffocated.

Finally seeing his superior, he was extremely excited and sighed: "It's been a long time since I saw you, Lord!"

Lord Lord Zhengao said lightly: "A trip to the lower world, it can't be considered a long time."

Everything in the Heaven and Earth in the Appraisal except Dangjiang is illusory. Lord Lord Zhengao is naturally controlled by Lu Jiangxian at will. The reason why he doesn't like to talk is purely because Lu Jiangxian is too lazy to deal with this talkative guy.

Li Ximing's breakthrough trip, successively ran to several families, went to Qingchi and Xianyou Peak, then went to Jianmen, and then went to Xuanmiao Guan, Xuan Yue Gate, Cui family Chongzhou Island...

Lu Jiangxian didn't pay attention all the time, but the illumination of the Immortal Appraisal followed from the Great Void, collecting all the techniques and secret methods that could be collected, but every sect and gate had secret methods locked, which was difficult to crack, so the harvest could only be said to be neither big nor small.

Chongzhou Island, Jianmen, and Qingchi all had special secret methods locked for every technique. As long as it was a high-grade technique, the recorded cracking secret methods seemed to be given according to the inheritance of each peak and pulse, not in the jade slip, so the harvest was not big.

As for Xiao Chuting, the old fox of Xianyou Peak, every technique was locked with secret methods, from beginning to end. In the huge Xianyou Peak, nothing was gained.

Only Xuanmiao Guan and Xuan Yue Gate had shallow foundations and no big background. The secret methods for cracking techniques were recorded with jade slips. Xuan Yue was better. The secret methods for Zifu techniques were mostly in Changxi's storage bag, and the rest were clear at a glance. As for Xuanmiao Guan, which had been in Jiangbei for only ten years, the system was not perfect, and the secret methods for cracking Zifu techniques were behind the statue of the founder Xu Xiang True Monarch, so they were all swept away.

'Most of them are spells, Foundation Establishment spells. Many third and fourth-grade sword techniques were obtained in Jianmen. Xuanmiao Guan techniques are actually the least, but there is a fifth-grade Zifu technique "Baoxiang Baitu Classic"... a rare path of 'Treasure Earth'.'

These were all expected harvests, but Li Ximing's trip through the East Sea made Lu Jiangxian accidentally scan a cave mansion, which seemed to be an ancient cultivator's.

The formation of this cave mansion was perfect. Li Ximing couldn't see it when it was in front of him, and Lu Jiangxian was too lazy to waste effort. His divine sense wandered around the formation. The space inside was not small, and there was nothing too worthy of praise. He only read the formation plate and recorded it casually.

The rest of the techniques all poured into the Tibetan Scripture Pavilion on the mountain, just left there. The characteristics of these techniques were too obvious, and they were not modified by Dangjiang or him, so they could not be used at will, only for reference.

He now had some thoughts, not wanting Dangjiang to modify spells day by day. There were endless spells in the pavilion. Giving them to the Li family one by one would be too inefficient. He just wanted to see if he could rely on the connection between the talisman seeds to let the Li family choose by themselves.

'If so, then there must be someone to manage and guide in the pavilion. It will be more convenient if more can be revealed to the Li family in the future.'

'Just like this cave mansion just now, if there is someone who can contact, compile an excuse to bestow it, so it won't be wasted in the sea in vain.'

Anyway, where is this guy Dangjiang not working? If he is not in this mansion, he doesn't have to keep pinching people to deal with him. Lu Jiangxian has the memory of generations, and doesn't intend to meet the Li family, so he prepares for a rainy day first.

So he attached to Lord Lord Zhengao's body and specifically looked for him. At the moment, he nodded and said:

"Although I went to the lower world, I heard from Liu Xianguan Liu that you are diligent and conscientious, burning the midnight oil, and I read the techniques you modified. Most of them are useful. Although some were rejected, I can see that you are attentive."

"This... thank you for your understanding, Lord!"

Dangjiang was overjoyed and looked at Liu Xianguan Liu gratefully. Lord Lord Zhengao continued: "Since you are so diligent and capable, I will plan a position for you in the sky. What do you think?"

Dangjiang is diligent and conscientious, isn't it for this moment? He was overjoyed and bowed: "The Lord's kindness... engraved in my heart... I..."

Before he could speak, Lord Lord Zhengao had already waved his hand and said: "I asked the Gong Cao and found a pavilion for you at the edge of the sky. The sky is short of manpower, and that pavilion has been abandoned for a long time. It was originally the official position of Li Xianguan. He will definitely have a good position when he returns from the lower world. This position is vacant. Since you are good at Dao techniques, I will send you to that pavilion to manage Dao techniques and spells first. Replace him on duty."

'Ah?'

Hearing that it was still this tiring work, Dangjiang almost groaned. He sighed in his heart: 'What is good at Dao techniques, do I have anything else to do? Even if you send me to see people, patrol the pavilion, be on duty in the sky, or eliminate monsters in the lower world, it's all excellent... why am I good at Dao techniques again!'

Lu Jiangxian knew that he was a talkative person, and he was not a person who could settle down to modify techniques, but where is there a sky for him to patrol now, and where are there monsters for him to eliminate? He only doubted: "But you think the official position is small?"

As soon as this word came out, he was already nailed to death. How dare Dangjiang argue? He shook his head repeatedly, saying words of thanks. Lu Jiangxian found it funny in his heart, controlled Lord Lord Zhengao and turned around: "Pack your things, I will take you to the edge of the sky."

Lord Lord Zhengao left the courtyard. Liu Xianguan Liu was finally not serving respectfully on the side, and came alive, cupping his hands to congratulate: "Congratulations, congratulations!"

Dangjiang was both happy and worried. What he was happy about was that he finally had a position in the sky, and what he was worried about was that he had to continue to do this tiring work. Perhaps the workload was even greater. Lu Jiangxian attached to Liu Xianguan Liu, moved the words of his previous life, and comforted: "It's not bad to have this position. Now we are colleagues! Which of the immortal officials didn't come through like this? Work steadily! You will see the clouds and see the moon!"

Dangjiang gritted his teeth and only replied:

"When I get ahead and have the opportunity to go to the lower world, I must talk to Fellow Daoist Li properly... This is hundreds of years of work!" ===== CHAPTER 710 =====
