Killing God

The Yunshan Temple is very quiet. Although the hall is very magnificent from the outside, when Shen Shi walks into the hall, only a few rows of tall bookshelves can be seen in the place where Shen Shi's line of sight is. A few acres of vacant land, with a small door on each side, should be a passage leading to the apse, which does not seem to be very consistent with the famous book sea in the legend, but it gives people another kind of reverie. Perhaps behind the tall bookshelf, the small In the back hall of the door, there is an endless pile of classics and books.

Shen Shi has loved reading since he was a child, so he has a sense of intimacy in Yunshan Temple, but of course the most important thing at this moment is to first select the most suitable exercise method from the Taoist catalog in his hand to cultivate. Nowadays, in this era of the decline of the Five Elements Technique, various Taoist magical powers are already the foundation of all monks.

The catalog is not long. The two pages before and after, as the former Shutang senior sister introduced, record the seventeen kinds of elementary Taoism that can be practiced at the beginning of the Ning Yuan realm. Shen Shi carefully looked at them one by one. In addition, Sun You, who has been practicing for three years and has experience, will point to the exercises in the catalog and introduce a few softly from time to time, so Shen Shi soon has a rough idea of ​​these seventeen primary-level Taoists. Understanding.

The Lingxiaozong has been passed down for thousands of years, during which there are countless geniuses and heroes. Naturally, there are countless kinds of divine channel methods handed down. Of course, there are peerless methods that are famous in the world, but that kind of thing is a top secret method. The secret is impossible for ordinary monks to touch. However, in addition to these Dafa secrets, Lingxiaozong also has a lot of beginner and intermediate Dao methods, suitable for the cultivation of disciples below the Yuan Dan realm.

But to be honest, there is actually no recognized standard in the cultivation world to distinguish the levels of various Taoist magical powers. It is different from the various spiritual materials, medicines, and minerals that are clearly classified and hierarchical. The human monks cultivate After thousands of years of evolution, all kinds of Taoist magical powers have actually become extremely complicated. There are many kinds of magical powers and more new techniques are being created. All kinds of weird magical powers will appear; and more Because the subjects of cultivating all kinds of Taoism are different people, and the foundation of talents will never appear exactly the same, and there will be more and more different consequences, and the power of various Taoism and magical powers will be more judged. Difficulties.

The distinction between the elementary, intermediate and high-level methods is actually just a relatively popular way of saying. Generally speaking, the techniques that can be practiced in the Ning Yuan realm are considered to be the primary level, and those with the godly mood are intermediate. , The elements above the Yuan Dan realm are naturally high-level, and some rare and powerful, the supreme magical powers that only exist in legends, which can move mountains and seas or even destroy the world, can no longer be corresponded with ordinary levels.

However, this kind of rough grading method is obviously too large, and it is impossible to make a clear definition of the current landscape of the human cultivation world. Therefore, in the Hongmeng cultivation world, there will be a certain intermediate level in a battle from time to time. The power of Dao Fa is not as powerful as a certain elementary Dao Fa phenomenon. But in retrospect, the so-called popular or relatively ordinary term means that under most normal circumstances, this method is still useful. Except for the more extreme examples, generally speaking, the middle-level method is more The elementary-level Dao Fa is powerful, and the high-level Dao Fa is stronger than the middle-level Dao Fa, which is still recognized by most monks.

In fact, to put it plainly, in the final analysis, what plays the most important role in this process is the realm of Taoism of the monk himself. Even if a great real person of the Yuandan realm uses a kind of elementary Taoism, but if he has an overwhelming realm power Exerting it with all its strength, that power is not something that a Ning Yuan realm monk can resist.

However, the division of these levels of Taoism is obviously not of much significance to people like Shen Shi who have just stepped into the Ning Yuan realm. The seventeen kinds of magic powers in this catalog are all cultivated by the Lingxiao Sect after many years. The Dao skills selected by experience are the most suitable for the new monks to practice, and cover a wide range. There are not only powerful attack type Dao skills, but also life-saving defensive skills, and even a rare auxiliary type Dao. Supernatural powers.

Shen Shi read the catalog several times, but still felt that it was difficult to decide for a while, so he turned his head and asked Sun You softly: "When you came to choose Dao Shu, which one did you choose?"

Sun You didn't mean to hide it from him, so he tapped his finger on the first page of the catalog and said, "This is it."

Shen Shi glanced over there, and saw that Sun You pointed to the third Taoist technique that was counted down, called "Crossing Cloud Arrow Art."

Shen Shi immediately looked at the brief explanatory text at the bottom of the Taoshu catalog. Although the text is simple and the number of words is limited, it is still easy to see that this Taoshu should be a magical power that focuses on attacks. After reading it, he nodded slightly, and couldn't help but ask Sun You again: "Why did you pick this Taoist technique in the first place?"

Sun You smiled and said: "It's nothing, I just think that in the future, I will be able to fight, and I will stand far away and shoot arrows. It feels so good that people were shot to death by me before they got close."

Shen Shi looked at him and laughed for a while, then smiled and shook his head, and said, "We two can be friends. There really is fate."

Sun You hugged Shen Shi's shoulders and said with a smile: "How do you say?"

Shen Shi smiled and said: "Actually, when I used the five-element technique to fight monsters, my favorite look was standing far away, and then I threw it over with fireball, water archery, or rock stabbing. ..."

Sun You laughed and looked very happy. He nodded and said, "It won my heart, and it won my heart. The two of us are really...eh?" As he said, he suddenly thought of something. Zi lowered his voice and said softly, "But, if you say this, will it seem like the two of us are very nasty? There is a feeling of always standing far away and attacking others."

Shen Shi snorted and said, "Pretending to be..."

Sun You laughed and said, "I mean, that's right. In that case, maybe you also choose this cloud-piercing arrow tactic. When the two of us go out to fight together, we will send both arrows together. I will go. Don’t be too prestigious in that scene!"

Shen Shi hesitated for a moment, his gaze flicked over the four words "Cloud Piercing Arrow Art" in this catalog, and did not nod in agreement. After a moment of indulgence, he asked Sun You softly, "You practice this Cloud Piercing Arrow technique. How long has it been, I looked at it and said that Yunjian has four realms, how is your realm now?"

Sun You shrugged and said, "I chose this Taoist technique just after going up the mountain, and I have only practiced it until now, but after three years, I can only cultivate to the first level of'crossing the clouds'. As for the "Phantom", "Duanxian" and "Potian" at the back, God knows when I can practice it. Maybe by that time, if I am lucky, I have already gone to the gods, so I will discard this Taoist art and replace it with a new one. ."

Shen Shi waved the catalog in his hand and said with a smile: "The text under the Cloud Piercing Arrow Art says that once Dacheng has completed his cultivation, its power will be comparable to that of Intermediate Dao."

Sun You sneered, rolled his eyes, and said, "Come on, out of these 17 Taoist magical powers, 16 of them are all boasting like this."

Shen Shi laughed, shook his head, and looked all the way. After thinking about it for a while, he finally made up his mind. Turning to the second page of the catalog, pointing to the penultimate Dao Fa name, he said to Sun You:" I choose this Taoist method to practice."

Sun You's gaze immediately moved over, and then he was taken aback, frowning slightly, and said: ""Golden Stone Armor"? Is this a pure defense technique?"

Generally speaking, when new cultivators choose their first Dao technique, the choice they make is usually to choose a powerful offensive Dao technique. After holding back in the Qi Refining Realm for so long, it is hard to get ahead. Now, how can you not be arrogant and experience the feeling of invincibility? Therefore, most of the time, offensive Taoism is more popular with novice monks. Defensive Taoism like gold and stone armor is actually considered unpopular.

Facing Sun You's somewhat surprised gaze, Shen Shi smiled and said, "I'm afraid of death."

Sun You snorted. He still didn't seem to believe this reason, but soon he became happy again and smiled: "Actually, this Taoism is also good. From now on, we two will go out together. When there is a fight, you will stand up. Carrying on the front, I shoot arrows at the back, um, this scene is really good, not bad, not bad, stone, you must have thought about it so that you chose the Jinshijiao Dao method, good brother!"

Sun You couldn't help but sigh, and he patted Shen Shi's shoulder hard, with an expression of admiration and admiration.

Shen Shi gave a bit of help, gave a wry smile, and didn't bother to pay attention to this guy. After several thoughts, he gave up the offensive methods that might be quite powerful and chose the gold and stone armor, naturally for a reason. Self-defense and life-saving is of course an important reason, but in addition, it is actually because he has practiced the Yin-Yang curse. For some reason, the power of the five-element spell seems to be much stronger than ordinary spells. The enhancement has even reached the point where ordinary first-order spells can cause threats and harm to the cultivators of the Ning Yuan realm.

Of course, it is said to be a threat and harm to the Ningyuan monk, but this effect is actually limited, and it is impossible to achieve the power that an ordinary fireball technique will severely damage the Ningyuan monk. On that day, he was in the gray lizard forest of the return to the world. In the battle in which he killed Qian Yi, he smashed an unknown number of spells on Qian Yi under the premise of taking the lead, and then killed the man.

Although it seems that the power of the first-order five-element spell is not satisfactory, don’t forget that Shen Shi is already a monk who has entered the Ning Yuan realm. In other words, although almost all monks in this realm People would give up the cultivation of the Five Elements Spells because they are time-consuming and labor intensive and the rewards are not high, but as long as Shen Shi is willing, he can actually find a way and start practicing the second-order spells of the Five Elements Spells.

According to the consensus in the practice world in the past, the higher the level of the five-element technique, the more difficult it is to cultivate. The effort and effort it consumes is no less than that of the various elementary and intermediate-level methods, and even some specific five-element techniques. For various reasons, the difficulty of cultivation has even reached the standard of high-level Taoism, but the power after cultivation is often not as good as that of beginner-level Taoism. In this case, the decline of the Five Elements Magic is simply inevitable.

However, Shen Shi is of course a bit different. The practice in Fulu from his childhood, including the Yin and Yang curse he has accidentally obtained over the years, has made him have an unusual love and enthusiasm for the five-element magic method, which is a diminished Taoist method. , And because of the yin and yang curse, he has a deep hunch that when he can really cultivate a certain second-order five-element spell, the power may be different and even a little surprising That's...

Maybe after leaving Yunshan Hall, should I visit the Shutang?

Shen Shi thought this in his heart, but now that he made the decision, Sun You didn't say much, so he stood up and found the senior sister and explained his decision to her.

After hearing the three words Jinshijiao, the senior sister of the school hall obviously had a startled look. Apparently, among the disciples of the Lingxiaozong who came here to choose exercises, very few people chose this defensive exercise. Less. However, this has nothing to do with her. Everyone chooses the path. Besides, everyone knows that although the cultivation of Taoism is difficult and long, they want to truly achieve a complete cultivation of Taoism. The Dacheng realm requires a huge amount of time and effort, but with the improvement of the monk realm, there are many examples of changing and practicing the magical powers. More often, these seventeen elementary-level Taoisms are actually just a stepping stone for the newly promoted disciples of the Lingxiaozong, and they are the transition and pavement for them to cultivate more powerful high-level Taoism when their realm is higher.

Therefore, although this introductory Taoism is important, it is the foundation for new disciples to defend their lives and even fight in the future, but in the long run, it is actually not particularly critical.

Retrieving the catalog, this schoolgirl took out a jade box from a large bookshelf next to it, opened it in front of Shen Shi, and saw a jade slip made of sapphire in the jade box, with a faint aura flickering, There are faint handwritings appearing on it, and at the top are three clear characters-"Golden Stone Armor".

Thanks to the senior sister, Shen Shi and Sun You walked out of the Yunshan Temple side by side, feeling a little bit reluctant in his heart, maybe he still likes the atmosphere of the scrolls here. However, he was not particularly sad, because the rules for disciples of the Lingxiao Sect had already stated that disciples of the sect could come here to read books at any time. The place behind the Yunshan Temple, known as the "Book of Sea", was prepared for them. Of course, from the clean environment here, Shen Shi can faintly infer that reading books in that sea of ​​books is not free...

And when he still had some thoughts about the legendary mountains and books in the hall behind him, Sun You beside him suddenly snorted and his face sank.

Shen Shi was stunned and glanced at Sun You, only to see that he looked forward, his face was a little unsightly, and following his gaze, Shen Shi saw an ancient tree outside the Yunshan Temple Under the shade of the tree, on the edge where the shadow of the tree and the sun intersect, in the light that the sea breeze blows over the shadow of the tree and swaying, there is a delicate and beautiful woman standing at this moment, with a somewhat complicated look, quietly Stared at him.

The corners of Shen Shi's mouth moved slightly, and then he laughed. Although she hasn't seen each other for three years, although she has grown up and become more beautiful, the expression in his eyes seems to be the same as yesterday.

He smiled and waved to her who was standing under the old tree.

In the distance, Zhong Qingzhu's gaze seemed to fall on him alone, looking at the man on the stone steps, looking at his hearty smile, in a trance, as if he was still the same as he was on Qingyu Island at that time. .

The breeze slowly blows by, swaying a little of her hair across the snow-white skin, like a reversal of time, reflecting in the depths of her gentle eyes.

Then, she also smiled, smiled and waved, and under the shade of the light and shadow, she smiled and cried out:

"stone!"
