Chapter 357: Tao-Kang Body

Collecting golden pearls to decorate the pavilion, knotting colorful silk to make the kiosk.

The pearl light dazzled the eyes, and the layout was magnificent.

After a round of passing the message, Su Tong was also led by the warrior into the main military tent.

Because it was his first time here, he couldn't help but look up curiously, scanning around, and a trace of emotion flowed slightly in the bottom of his eyes.

Even in the secular world of mortals, the camps of those leading generals were not lacking in all kinds of exquisite and ingenious things.

Not to mention these cultivation people who could fly to the sky and escape the earth.

With them decorating and arranging it, personally applying their efforts, it was naturally even better.

Although Chen Hang did not give any orders, the people below would naturally flatter and please him.

The current main military tent was not so much a military camp as it was a high, cool, and magnificent palace, which was more appropriate.

Everywhere one could see fluorescent stars and colorful jade, light penetrating inside and outside, agarwood as beams and pillars, and gold as the foundation of the house.

The flowers and trees were lush and elegant, all rare varieties among immortals; they did not wither in winter or summer, and their fragrance was extraordinary, wafting into the nose in thick, dense clouds.

Seeing this appearance, Su Tong couldn't help but tighten his brows slightly.

However, thinking of the object he was about to offer to Chen Hang later.

His heart relaxed, and he calmed down, just sitting quietly in the guest seat, waiting for Chen Hang to arrive.

And he waited for this.

It didn't take long.

First, a sound of footsteps rose, and then a figure parted the curtains and turned out from the inner hall.

Chen Hang sat down in the main seat calmly, looked at Su Tong who stood up in panic, and asked with a smile:

"Su Tong of the Chen-Zhang Sect, Chen Chen Shidi Su? A rare guest indeed.

If Chen remembers correctly, you seem to be under the sect of True Person Li Yi, and you and your master were both under Xiao Xiao Shixiong Deng Yunji's tent at first. I don't know why you came to find me today?"

Since the day of the defeat crossing the river, Deng Yunji had retreated gloomily to the rear of the formation, no longer having the strength to fight.

To this day.

He was still in a half-awake, half-asleep state, his consciousness chaotic and unclear.

And the original eight Daoist lineage True Persons under his command now only had three left, all of whom were rescued by Chen Hang and incorporated into his own unit.

Su Tong's master, Li Yi, was one of those three remaining True Persons, so Chen Hang was not unfamiliar with him.

And seeing that Chen Hang had broken the name of his own master in one word.

Su Tong was slightly startled, but he looked at the young Daoist in the main seat and said respectfully:

"This subordinate requested to see you rashly today precisely because I have a rare treasure that I wish to offer to the Instructor. The spiritual beauty of heaven and earth can only be occupied by those with virtue!

In the eyes of my master and this subordinate, in this tent, only the Instructor is the person with virtue!"

"A rare treasure?"

Chen Hang's gaze moved, and he said lightly:

"I remember a few days ago, Xiao Xiao Shixiong Deng Yunji seemed to have heard these words too, but he only enjoyed it for a moment before falling into a cage and net, nearly losing his life in the borderlands, and becoming a laughingstock for the world.

And coincidentally, that True Person Lu Xing who offered the treasure that day was Gu Yi in disguise.

But he was also from the Chen-Zhang Sect and was of the same sect as Chen Chen Shidi..."

Reaching this point.

Chen Hang's gaze fell on Su Tong, making the hair on his back stand up, and he felt uncomfortable all over.

"Such a coincidence, could it be that Chen Chen Shidi Su is also Gu Yi in disguise?"

Chen Hang asked.

Su Tong felt his heart and gallbladder split for a moment, and there was a blank space in his mind for a moment.

The words he had organized well couldn't be said at this time, he forgot most of them, and could only stutter.

And just when he was almost sweating profusely.

Chen Hang smiled kindly again, waved his hand, and said:

"I was just joking, Chen Chen Shidi Su doesn't need to be suspicious, but I don't know what that rare treasure is?"

At this time, Su Tong finally relaxed his mind slightly, and after hurriedly arguing a few words for himself.

He couldn't delay too much, so he hurriedly took out an exquisite silver pot from his sleeve and held it in his palm.

After chanting a few incantations, waiting for the silver pot to emit clusters of light mist.

He turned his palm over, aimed the pot mouth at the empty space in front of him, and said:

"Go!"

In an instant.

Only seeing wisps of white Qi misting, forming auspicious clouds, shining brilliantly.

And after the spiritual light dissipated, there was only a girl wearing a plum-green skirt, with hair as dark as ink, and a flower-and-bird golden hairpin as a head ornament standing timidly in place.

She seemed to be startled by this sudden scene, clutching her skirt tightly with both hands, looking around ignorantly, wanting to run away.

But she was intimidated by the momentum in the field, hesitated for several rounds, and still remained silent.

Chen Hang saw her biting her lips helplessly, her hair sticking to her face in a mess, and her whole body trembling, as if she wanted to hug her head and squat down.

Only a pair of eyes were clear and gentle.

Full of rippling waves...

"Is this mermaid the rare treasure you speak of?"

Chen Hang said.

"Instructor, please listen, this mermaid is not only born with national beauty and an extraordinary appearance, but she also has a wonderful point that is quite extraordinary!"

Su Tong saw that Chen Hang seemed to have some interest, and he was secretly happy, hurriedly pointing his finger and explaining diligently:

"She is born with a Tao-Kang body, which is a rare good appearance in the art of the bedchamber! Extremely rare!

If the Instructor takes this woman as a concubine and teaches her how to enter the Dao and cultivate, it will inevitably be beneficial to the cultivation base, so don't miss it!"

"Art of the bedchamber... good appearance?"

Chen Hang smiled lightly at the moment, noncommittal.

In the path of cultivation, there are ten thousand methods and a thousand gates.

Such as Qi refining, pill casting, taking bait, divination, communicating with the secluded, practicing swords, etc.

And counting the roots, these are all kinds of means to accumulate and cultivate the Dao and obtain the longitude and latitude of heaven.

The reason why Daoists practice various methods is also to use this to save disasters and overcome difficulties, and to be famous in the jade register.

And this art of the bedchamber.

Is precisely one of the ten thousand methods and a thousand gates!

The art of the bedchamber is also known as the method of Xuan-Su, the mud-water pill method, and is the art of male and female combining Qi.

It has various strange names such as plucking battle, hidden play, fighting internally, responding and combining, connecting forms, combining Yin and Yang, the supreme Dao of the world, and the true art of middle Qi.

It is based on the mysterious and wonderful meaning of "returning the horse to replenish the brain, returning the Yin pill to the vermilion intestine, plucking the jade liquid in the golden pool, and leading the three-five to the flower beam."

And those who have attainments in this path.

Not only can they easily remedy injuries and treat various diseases in the body.

But even if they want to increase their years and prolong their lives, and greatly increase their cultivation base, it is not a difficult thing!

It is because of such mysterious and wonderful things.

Therefore, the art of the bedchamber has had successors for generations and has become a great sect.

It has always been prosperous, and the Dao lineage has not been cut off!

Even in the Dao Record Hall of the Yuchen Sect, there are many superior classics about the art of the bedchamber, which have been exchanged by many disciples for cultivation...

And the "Tao-Kang body" that Su Tong just mentioned.

Is another superior good appearance in the art of the bedchamber.

Daoists who practice the art of the bedchamber, in order to realize the meaning of "Yin and Yang intersection" and "Dragon and Tiger returning to the furnace," also divide the men and women in this world into "good appearance" and "evil appearance."

Dual cultivation with a good appearance.

Can nourish the spirit and Qi, not lose its harmony, take Kan and fill Li, and dispel diseases and return to the origin.

But dual cultivation with an evil appearance, although one can get temporary shallow benefits.

It is inevitable that it will ruin luck, consume the original truth, and must be guarded against...

If this mermaid is truly born with the "Tao-Kang body" among the superior good appearances.

Then in a sense.

She is truly a rare treasure.

For Daoists who practice the art of the bedchamber, no matter how much price they pay, they must snatch this woman!

"Tao-Kang body, it is rare, I heard that those born with this appearance have strange fates, equal to the Yin Son of Heaven..."

Chen Hang's gaze swept slightly.

And when she touched his gaze.

That beautiful mermaid girl was startled again, lowered her head, and said nothing.

"However, Chen is curious, how did you find her?"

Chen Hang asked.

"Instructor, please listen, being able to find this woman is thanks to True Person Deng Yunji's love for delicious food and delicacies.

If it weren't for this reason, my master and this subordinate would have been truly difficult to find this Tao-Kang body..."

Su Tong bowed and answered.

And when saying this.

His face was inevitably a bit helpless, and his expression was awkward.

The Wei-Yong Kingdom is close to Zi-Ming Mountain, and there is a Jin-Lai River in Zi-Ming Mountain.

It is rumored that there is a strange species in the Jin-Lai River, called the Wu-Xuan Fish.

This fish is as big as a calf, six feet tall, cyan-black in color, with a face like a pig, and long whiskers.

But it is born with a fish body and specializes in eating snakes, scorpions, and toads, and is a natural enemy of poisonous things in the secular world.

However, although the Wu-Xuan Fish lives by preying on poisonous things.

But its meat quality is extremely delicate and delicious, and it also contains a kind of sweet and mellow exotic fragrance that is difficult to describe clearly.

After being roasted by fierce fire, the fragrance is even stronger, and it is truly a delicacy in the world.

Some cultivators who love the desire of the mouth and belly treat it as a rare delicacy.

Initially, it was Deng Yunji who ordered Su Tong to go to the Jin-Lai River to find Wu-Xuan Fish for him to eat.

And by chance.

Su Tong discovered a small water mansion in the depths of the river, where a group of mermaids lived.

Su Tong is also a Cave-Mystic Instructor and loves physiognomy, so he naturally saw that among the group of mermaids, one of them was born with a "Tao-Kang body."

In ecstasy, he didn't even have time to find the Wu-Xuan Fish, so he hurriedly sent a message to his master, Li Yi.

And after discussing it.

In the end, Li Yi made the decision, took the mermaid girl back to the tent, and wanted to offer her to Yu Shitong after the war.

"Tao-Kang body" is a superior good appearance, and its name is not small.

With Yu Shitong's vision, he naturally recognizes it.

Furthermore, the mermaid girl is so beautiful and pitiful, which is also a wonder.

Such a strange object.

In the eyes of Li Yi and Su Tong, offering it to Deng Yunji was a loss.

Only by letting a Great True Person like Yu Shitong accept it and letting Yu Shitong accept this friendship would it be a big profit!

However, before Li Yi and Su Tong's plans could be made.

Deng Yunji, because his divine ability was achieved, insisted on crossing the river to march north, and finally suffered a miserable defeat.

Consequently, the original excellent situation was lost in one morning.

If it weren't for the two of them being quick-witted.

And leaving a backup plan in advance.

I'm afraid they wouldn't have waited for Chen Hang to come to the rescue, but would have been killed by the Demon Sect people and become ghosts on the battlefield...

And at this time.

After detailing the whole story clearly.

Su Tong bowed again and said sincerely:

"Instructor, although this subordinate does not know how that demoness Gu Yi changed into the appearance of True Person Lu Xing and mixed into the tent. But this mermaid has a clean identity and should be unlikely to be fake!"

"Why does Chen Chen Shidi Su say that?"

Chen Hang asked.

Su Tong smiled bitterly and said:

"Gu Yi's shape-shifting technique is indeed very powerful, and she can even change her profound skills and Daoist methods without any difference. Looking at her fate with Qi-gazing techniques, one can't see any abnormality.

But such a powerful method, I think, can only be performed by the true body.

If even the fake body can be used freely, then it's chaotic.

Such information must be spread all over the world and is absolutely difficult to hide!

And the Chen Chen Shidi Lu Xing that Gu Yi changed into appeared in the tent with this mermaid girl, so I think this mermaid must have a clean identity.

No matter how powerful Gu Yi's Daoist methods are, she can only reach the Cave-Mystic cultivation base and cannot achieve such great ability after splitting her form.

Even if she is the second Cave-Mystic... this point is truly too shocking to hear!"

Su Tong's voice was very firm, and he raised his head and said loudly.

Chen Hang glanced at him, but was noncommittal.

"However, since you and your master want to offer this woman to Xiao Xiao Shixiong Yu, why do you offer her to me now?

Chen doesn't have the family wealth of Xiao Xiao Shixiong Yu and can't take out any precious things to feed you."

He said.

"Instructor is joking, if the Instructor can accept this great gift, my master and this subordinate will be grateful, how dare we ask for any reward!"

Su Tong hurriedly bowed his hands and flattered.

However, after these words were spoken.

Seeing Chen Hang's expression was light.

Su Tong was also a bit embarrassed, coughed a few times, and still said his intention this time with shame.

"Instructor, to tell the truth, my master and Su were under True Person Deng's tent, and they had already experienced consecutive fierce battles, were exhausted, and took the lead in crossing the river.

Now they are already in a state of exhaustion and cannot fight again..."

He tentatively looked at Chen Hang and smiled awkwardly:

"I wonder if the Instructor can show mercy and let my master and this subordinate retreat to Instructor Shen Cheng's unit?

In this way, we will be truly grateful!"

After Deng Yunji's defeat.

There was no one left to guard the front.

And to prevent Huzhao people from crossing the river to attack, Chen Hang also took the initiative to move the camp forward, facing the Huzhao troops head-on.

In these few days.

The demon soldiers of Huzhao had not stopped raiding the camp, almost day and night.

It was entirely reliant on Chen Hang charging at the front of the formation every time to barely support the situation.

But this scene.

Anyone with a discerning eye could see that the situation was already in a state of collapse, and they were uneasy.

And Li Yi and Su Tong specially offered the mermaid today, wanting to use this to ask for a favor from Chen Hang, so that they could be transferred to Shen Cheng's tent, which was also planning a way out for themselves in advance.

Among Yuchen's five units of troops.

Shen Cheng's unit was arranged on the flank to do the work of responding because its strength was the weakest.

If one could be transferred under Shen Cheng's command to avoid the direct brunt of the military force, it would not be a matter of being able to calmly extricate oneself from the affair.

At least the possibility of surviving,

Compared to now.

Would be greatly increased!

Facing Su Tong's eager gaze, Chen Hang was noncommittal, just chatted casually for a few words, and sent Su Tong out of the tent.

And at this time.

After Su Tong left, only Chen Hang and the mermaid were left in the tent.

The atmosphere in the field was suddenly a bit cold and oppressive, inexplicably making people feel tight in their hearts,

"My name is Xu Qing..."

In the silence, the mermaid's cheeks were finally a bit hot.

She looked up boldly at the cold and handsome Daoist on the high seat, opened her eyes wide, and stepped forward a few steps to ask:

"Does this Immortal Master want to take me as a concubine?"

Chen Hang raised his eyebrows slightly, but did not answer.

"No status..."

The mermaid's expression was a bit dull, she wanted to speak but stopped, her long eyelashes drooping.

After a long silence, she finally spoke again:

"Immortal Master can treat me as a plaything... but I have only one request, hoping the Immortal Master will agree."

She took a deep breath and said:

"Can the Immortal Master teach me to cultivate?"

This question was asked tentatively, and there was no response at all.

The person on the high seat had a cold expression, without any expression, and his eyes were as dark as the water at the bottom of the abyss.

Seeing this scene.

Emotions such as shame, helplessness, unwillingness, and suspicion flashed across her face.

Finally, as if she had made up her mind, she walked toward Chen Hang and climbed the long steps.

At the same time, she slowly began to untie the robe on her body, her face flushed, and tears hung in the corners of her eyes...

And finally, when the jade belt at the mermaid's waist was about to fall, revealing her smooth, warm-jade-like shoulders.

Suddenly, a sword Qi shot through the air swiftly, moving like thunder!

In the blink of an eye.

It easily exploded her head, like ten thousand peach blossoms blooming!

Only a headless corpse remained after swaying for a while.

Then it rolled down the jade steps dejectedly.

No more sound...

"Instructor Gu clearly knew that she had already revealed flaws, yet she still wanted to perform this scene, which is truly a good interest."

At this time, looking at the headless corpse under the steps, Chen Hang finally opened his mouth and said coldly.

This voice was issued, but there was no response.

After waiting for a few breaths.

A crisp laugh finally sounded:

"Chen Hang, you are truly a piece of wood, so unappreciative of the style..."
