Killing God

Chapter 47 The Secret Method

It seems that I have been asleep for an unknown number of years, lost and silent in the dark, until suddenly I saw the glimmer, a bit of familiarity appeared in the long and unfamiliar memory, although I still don’t know what it is, but there is something A strong tremor flowed through the body like an electric current, and in an instant shouted!

"what……"

With a cry, Shen Shi suddenly turned over and sat up, gasping for breath, staring around him in shock, the familiar scene of the stone room caught his eyes, and after a while, he slowly recovered. He just fell asleep in confusion. In the past, it seemed to have had a nightmare.

The scene in the dream seemed to be blurred for a while, but after wiping his forehead, he found that he was already in a cold sweat, and he didn’t know what he had dreamed of. So he sat on the bed for a while, waiting for his state of mind. After he calmed down completely, he didn't think about it, but found that his body felt very light, especially full of energy, as if his whole body was full of energy.

Shen Shi subconsciously looked at the edge of the bed not far away from his hand. There was an old hourglass standing there, and the white sand inside was flowing silently and silently. At this moment, only the last residue was left. Shen Shi frowned, a look of surprise flashed across his face.

This jade hourglass was a small gift given by the father, Shen Tai, when he parted with him. As a thought, the sand in it flows completely from one side to the other, which is exactly the hour. And Shen Shi clearly remembered that when he started practicing tonight, he put the sand in the hourglass on one end as usual and then started to count upside down.

In other words, from the beginning of cultivation to the present, it can only last an hour?

Shen Shi pondered for a moment, jumped off the bed, moved his body on the ground, turned his head, bent over and waved his arms, and finally jumped a few times. Finally, he clearly confirmed that he was indeed very refreshed and unprofitable right now, as if he was eagerly anxious. Now you can go to Red Clam Village to peel 20 or 30 ghost noodle shrimps!

But this is not right...

Shen Shi slowly stopped his body, frowning and frowning, whether it was the record of Xingluo's secret method or the warning when Wang Gen's brother Su He taught the exercises, or even Sun You, He Xiaomei, Jiang Hongguang these days. When talking with a new friend after he started practicing, the meaning in the words is exactly the same, that is, after the human race has cultivated, especially the new person who has just begun to absorb the spiritual power from the spiritual crystal to attract the spiritual into the body. After one practice, the whole person must be extremely tired, especially mentally tired.

In the words of Senior Brother Wang Gen, that is when absorbing spiritual power from the spirit crystals and entering the body's vital energy, all the methods used in this process are countless in the world, but in the final analysis, they all consume energy and draw them with thoughts. Therefore, all the monks’ reactions after the completion of the practice are exhausted. This is the fundamental reason why the monks can only practice once a day to draw the spirit into the body. If you practice too hastily and practice too many times, the human spirit will first be unable to bear it. , If you force to go against the sky, within ten and a half days, this person will become an idiot.

The same is true even for monks with deeper Taoism and higher realm, because although monks in the Ning Yuan realm and even the divine artistic realm have advanced supernatural powers, both physical and spiritual are far better than those in the refining Qi realm, but every time they learn from the spirit crystal The spiritual power absorbed is also greatly increased, and the energy consumed is also greatly increased. At most, it will no longer have such a strong sense of fatigue after practicing, but most high-level cultivators still only practice once a day.

For a long time, this has been a recognized truth in the Hongmeng cultivation world. Not long after Shen Shi worshipped the Lingxiao Sect, he knew it from the seniors in the door.

However, this situation is obviously not quite right...

The excitement of drawing the spirit into the body for the first time tonight, at this time, has slowly faded, and the thick bewilderment replaced in Shen Shi's heart. He pondered for a long time, but still did not come up with a reason. Sit down on the edge of the bed, close your eyes, and slowly go through the practice process of tonight from the beginning to the end, one by one in your mind, trying to find some clues or oddities.

Spirit crystal, clenching, meditation, concentration, cultivation, perception, darkness, dim light, spiritual power, chasing, attracting the spirit, entering the body, all the processes are like cutting through fragments, recalling the past little by little. But in the end, he found that everything was normal, exactly the same as usual, except that there was no sign of physical backlash tonight, the first successful cultivation...

Later, he was tired and fell on the bed, amidst the great joy and excitement of completing his cultivation for the first time, similarly, at that time he also felt as if unstoppable exhaustion was sweeping over the sky, and then he was fascinated. He fell asleep in a daze.

When you are conscious, it is now when you wake up.

Shen Shi's brows suddenly wrinkled, as if he had grasped something faintly, and he concentrated on thinking about it, trying to remember the fragment that he was not asleep, but everything seemed vague, and there was chaos in his mind, or a patch of chaos. paste……

Was it really what happened while sleeping just now? But I clearly didn't do anything. Looking back on it, it seems that I didn't think of anything in my confusion. I was tired and wanted to sleep. If there was someone refreshing at that time...

Refreshing!

Suddenly, these four words flashed across Shen Shi's mind like lightning, and seemed to suddenly illuminate the dark corners in the darkness. His body immediately shook. At this moment, another name slowly surfaced in his mind. The water surface.

Is the Pure Heart Curse... the secret he has been hiding and hesitating to touch?

At this time, Shen Shi's face looked a little strange, as if there was a sudden joy, but also as if there was confusion. He turned around and hesitated for a while, reaching out to the innermost part of the bed, a secret hidden in the bedding. He fumbled around the corner, and then when he turned around, there was already a black scroll in his hand.

When he first entered the Lingxiao Sect and experienced the crystal swallowing toad level that day, Shen Shi had already sensed that the seven-leaf golden sunflower pattern on the scroll of the Heart-Clearing Curse was likely to cause trouble to him, and since then he dare not dare Carrying it with him, it happened that the Lingxiaozong assigned a separate Dongfu for each new disciple, and the non-person Yunfu could not be opened, so Shen Shi carefully hid it in the Dongfu.

After getting this clear heart mantra scroll, Shen Shi naturally read it many times in secret, but he still had some worries in his heart, and he did not dare to practice arbitrarily. After that, there were body backlashes and red clam peeling shrimps. Many things made him live a full and busy life during this period, and even for a while, he even forgot the pure heart curse.

Who knows, just after he finally got used to the physical backlash for the first time, and successfully practiced, he actually practiced a Heart-Cleaning Mantra somehow.

Have you really practiced? Shen Shi felt a little uneasy. He stood up and moved his body cautiously. After self-examination, he finally confirmed that he did not seem to be unusual. On the contrary, his spirit seemed particularly refreshing and full. This is similar to Sun You and others. Usually, I complained to myself that every time I practiced, I was so tired that it was completely different from the description of a dead dog.

In other words, is this mysterious heart-clearing curse really just a technique for refreshing minds?

Shen Shi's heart jumped for no reason...

※※※

April 28th, sunny.

In the early morning, when he walked out of the cave, Shen Shi looked up at the sky and found that today's sky seemed bluer than usual. There was not even a single cloud in the endless sky. The sky was clear and transparent like a huge and flawless sapphire. The tide is still surging on the beach of Baiyu Bay, and the sound of rushing waves is heard from far away. The sea breeze seems to be a little bit smaller than usual, and we often see seabirds flying and fishing along the coast. I didn't see it.

Standing at the gate of the cave, Shen Shi stretched his waist towards the sea. He only felt that this day seemed to be very beautiful, and of course his mood was very good.

On that night three days ago, he finally managed to draw the spirit into the body for the first time. Since then, he has officially embarked on the road of cultivation and can be reluctantly called a monk, although it is still the lowest. The beginning of the refining realm.

However, which monk in this world didn't start from here?

Now in the elementary stage of the refining realm, the spiritual power in his body is naturally meager, but from today onwards, as long as the subsequent spiritual crystals can keep up and do not relax in his own practice, the spiritual power in his body will naturally become stronger and stronger. With the increasing spiritual power absorbed, and with a few chances to get through the joints of the body's vital energy, Dao Xing will naturally improve. From the elementary to the high-level in the refining realm, you can try to open up the Dantian jade house and explore the Ning Yuan realm. Mark.

As for the herring island, there are still many seniors who have been trapped in the Qi Refining Realm for many years and have not been able to enter the realm. At this moment, the young Shen Shi didn't think of it at all.

Besides, there is another reason why he is in a good mood.

After repeated hesitation, deliberations and inner struggles, in the end, he finally couldn't hold back, and began to tentatively practice the mysterious Pure Heart Mantra. And after several days of cultivation attempts, Shen Shi finally determined that this pure heart spell does not seem to do any harm to him. On the contrary, this mysterious spell is recovering his spirit, especially after he has practiced it once. After drawing the spirit into the body, I feel a strong sense of exhaustion, and then run the Purifying Mantra again, which has an amazing and miraculous effect on restoring physical strength and spirit.

Every time you practice the Pure Heart Mantra, all the mental fatigue will be wiped out. The whole person is like a person who has just taken a bath and is refreshed. Even, Shen Shi even had the courage to secretly try to practice a second time within a day, that is, the second time holding the spirit crystal to draw the spirit into the body.

He did it.

Even he himself did not dare to have too much hope, but he tried with a chance of one in ten thousand, unexpectedly, unexpectedly, really, succeeded!

He actually managed to draw the spirit into the body twice in one day, and after this second attempt to practice, his reaction was the same as after the first practice before, but he simply felt a huge sense of mental exhaustion. , But none of the signs that Senior Cultivation Wang Gen said that excessive cultivation would cause great damage to the body.

However, the miracle of the Purifying Heart Mantra seems to end here. After practicing twice in a day, no matter how he practices the Purifying Heart Mantra, his body does not respond at all. It seems that in a single day, the Purifying Heart Mantra has the most. Can only restore his spirit once.

Chapter Forty-Eight

Practicing twice in a day, there is almost no backlash harm, even if the peculiar effect of the Qingxin Jue can only be effective once a day, but even so, Shen Shi is already satisfied and does not want to ask for more.

What does it mean to practice twice in a day? This is basically that if the spirit crystal can keep up, his cultivation speed can be twice as fast as ordinary people. With such a huge benefit, how can he be in a bad mood?

Seeing the blue sea and sky, Shen Shi really had the urge to open his mouth and shout, but of course, at the end of the day, he held it back, smiled, and then stretched out his hand to rub his eyebrows.

The finger was between the center of the eyebrow, and there was a slight pause.

Perhaps, the only thing that made him a little uneasy, the slightest flaw was that the Heart-Cleaning Mantra seemed to have a strange sequelae. After each operation, although it could quickly regain the spirit, it would at the same time restore the traces of his previous training. Spiritual power, inexplicably scattered around the body's qi and veins, slowly gathered and attracted to a certain orifice point deep in the center of the eyebrows, and stopped there.

And the spiritual power gained from the second practice in the day to draw the spirit into the body, because the Heart-Cleaning Mantra seems to only be effective once, but like most monks, it is normally scattered in the body's qi veins.

However, this doesn’t seem to be a major problem. The center of the eyebrows is also a part of the energy of the whole body. Although it is strange that the spiritual energy of the body stays there, it is a bit strange, because in common sense, only the future will be cultivated to the Ningyuan realm to open up the Jade Palace. After the sea of ​​qi, the spiritual power will show signs of converging in one place. In the refining state, there has never been such an abnormal appearance.

But at least it doesn't seem to be anything unusual now. The more spiritual power enters the body, the higher the practice, and naturally the better! Anyway, in the future, the practice will be further. When the Dantian Jade Mansion is opened, all the spiritual power of the whole body will definitely flow into the Jade Mansion.

Shen Shi thought so excitedly, looking at the blue sky, only feeling that the future is bright.

The sea breeze blew through, with strands of coolness.

Shen Shi turned and walked in the direction of Herring, preparing to follow that road to Hongcang Village. Today, he will have a good day. Now that others have happy events, although they cannot speak to others, they are already full of enthusiasm. If you practice twice a day, the first thing that bears the brunt is that the consumption of spirit crystals will be twice that of others.

Generally speaking, a normal spirit crystal is enough for the first-level cultivator of the Qi refining realm to practice twenty times, that is, enough training for 20 days. After the realm is improved, the consumption of the spiritual power of the spiritual crystal by the cultivator will also be large. Promote. The speed at which middle-level cultivators in the refining realm can absorb spiritual power is twice as fast as that of the first-level. A spiritual crystal can only be used for ten days. At the high-level of the refining realm, it is doubled again. It can last for five days. As for the great supernatural power monks of higher realms, the great real people of the Ning Yuan realm, the divine artistic realm and even the Yuan Dan realm, the spiritual crystals and spiritual power they consume during cultivation are not what Shen Shi can imagine now.

Although Shen Shi is only just getting started in the way of cultivation, he is only at the beginning of the Qi Refining Realm, and he does not absorb much spiritual power from the spirit crystal every time he cultivates, but he can't stand it. Now he is practicing twice a day. The cost is twice that of ordinary people.

When I think that I have to use the weak way of the first stage of the refining realm, but the speed of the middle stage of the refining realm is to consume the spirit crystals, and if the realm rises in the future, the demand for the spirit crystals will become more terrifying. Thinking of this, Shen Shi suddenly felt anxious, and even faintly panicked, earning as many spirit crystals as possible was already Shen Shi's number one priority on Herring Island now.

※※※

When Shen Shi cheered up and prepared to go to a big fight, he saw the stone gate of the cave next door rumbling open without taking two steps, and then Sun You walked out with a decadent and listless expression.

Looking up to see Shen Shi, Sun You waved to him, closed the Shimen smoothly, and walked slowly to Shen Shi's side. Shen Shi looked at him for a while, and saw that Sun You's eyes were dark, his eyelids and cheeks were also slightly swollen, and he looked tired after staying up all night, and he couldn't help but wondered: "What's wrong with you?"

Sun You grinned, and smiled weakly, and said: "It's not because of cultivation. For the past few days, after practicing every night, I have headaches, and I can't even sleep well. It looks like this. Having said this, he suddenly thought of something, his eyes were a little surprised, he looked at Shen Shi carefully, and said:

"Hey, I remember you said a few days ago that you have passed the period of physical backlash and you can start cultivating. Why does it seem to be better than me?"

Shen Shi was startled, and nodded subconsciously, "Yes, I can start normal cultivation three days ago and draw the spirit into the body."

Sun You glanced at him, and saw that although Shen Shi was somewhat exhausted on his face, but his eyes were tall and straight, his situation really looked better than himself, and he frowned, "That's weird..."

Shen Shi was speechless for a moment, his mind was twitching, and he was thinking about making up an excuse to perfuse the past. At this moment, he listened to a cold snort from someone nearby, with a bit of disdain in his tone, and said, "It's rare and weird. Naturally everyone is tired after practicing, but the physical condition of each person is different, and the duration of mental fatigue varies. He just recovers sooner. What's so strange?"

Both Shen Shi and Sun You turned around and looked around. They saw two girls standing not far away, one fat and thin, with similar looks. It was Zhong Qinglu and Zhong Qingzhu. At this moment, the only person who can ridicule Sun You by saying something like this is naturally only Miss Zhong Qinglu.

These days, I’ve been busy cultivating all day long, or I’m peeling shrimps in Hongbang Village, getting up early in the morning and returning late. In addition to hearing from Sun You a few days ago that Zhong Qinglu took the task of alchemy and Zhong Qingzhu took the task of picking up shells, Shen Shi hasn't seen these two girls for a long time. When I saw it today, Shen Shi first took a closer look at the two of them, then stayed for a while, and then became a little amused in his heart.

It turns out that these two girls, especially Zhong Qinglu, looked down on Sun You, but they didn’t seem to be in very good condition. They also looked tired. Among them, Zhong Qingzhu looked better, Zhong Qinglu The original white and fat little face also had two more dark circles under the eyes, which was very conspicuous.

After listening to Zhong Qinglu's words, Sun You didn't get angry right away, but thoughtfully for a moment, then turned to Shen Shi and said: "Don't say it, it's really the truth of the Zhong family girl. But in the future as we practice With daily growth, the physical body will become more and more coordinated with the spiritual power. Now it is just some superficial reactions, and the time will be better."

Naturally, Shen Shi has heard people say this before, but I didn’t think of it for a while, but Zhong Qinglu was watching Sun You unpleasantly, so I told him directly, and smiled at the moment: "So you just bear with me for a while. ."

Sun You shrugged and said, "That's all there is to it."

This clock Qinglu brought Zhong Qinglu to the front of the two of them, looking at the backs of the two of them, perhaps because Zhong Qinglu inadvertently blocked him just now, Shen Shi actually felt that Zhong Qinglu looked like this time It's pleasing to the eye, and can't help but whisper to Sun You: "Why do you always quarrel with Zhong Qinglu, I don't think she is particularly annoying?"

Sun You sneered and just wanted to criticize her friend, but Zhong Qinglu seemed to hear something in front of her. Suddenly she stood still and looked back, just in time to see Sun You look strange while looking at herself while trying to say something to Shen Shi. His face suddenly sank, and he sneered: "Lao Er, you are sneaking over there and want to talk about people behind their backs?"

Sun You didn’t speak for a while, Zhong Qinglu’s gaze swept across Shen Shi, and saw that he looked at herself a little blankly, looking stupid. He was angry when he looked at it, snorted coldly, and shouted: "What are you looking at? Isn’t it? He’s chirping with the second son of Sun over there. At first glance, he’s not a good person, and he doesn’t know how to get into the Lingxiao Sect!"

After that, he glared at both of them, then ignored him, turned around and shook his head, drifting away, Zhong Qingzhu stuck his tongue out, smiled apologetically at them, and hurriedly followed Go up.

After a long while, Sun You squinted at Shen Shi and said, "What did you just say?"

Shen Shi was silent for a moment, and said: "Forget that sentence, just assume I haven't said it!"

※※※

The two of them walked to the Herring Set together, because the entrances of the Lingxiaozong halls had special halls on Herring Island, and the tasks they received were basically going to the corresponding places to do things, so Sun You and Shen Shi They were separated on the herring collection. When they were leaving, Sun You watched his spirit recover a lot, and smiled at Shen Shi and said, "If I finish my work earlier today, I will go to Hongbang Village to see you peeling shrimps."

Shen Shi smiled and said the same thing several times in so many days, but except for the first time without notice, afterwards, when he said he was going to come, he didn't finish it once.

I walked all the way east from Herring Ji, and walked along the road leading to Hongbang Village for a while. I saw the small village on the beach from a distance. After a short distance, Shen Shi Unexpectedly, I saw the slim figure leaning against the tree at the entrance of the village.

He smiled slightly, strode forward, and said hello to the starfish girl: "Morning."

Haixing glanced at him, and suddenly said, "Hey, you are in a good mood today."

Shen Shi laughed, touched his face, and said, "Is there?"

Haixing snorted and said, "Nonsense, it seems that your mouth is almost reaching your ears."

Shen Shi smiled and shook his head, then geared his hands, said: "Okay, stop talking nonsense, get out the shrimp pot quickly, I will do a good job today."

Starfish was startled for a moment, and wondered: "What the **** is going on with you today? It looks weird. You looked like you didn't wake up a few days ago, but today it looks like a different person."

Shen Shi laughed and didn't say much, just urged Starfish to get the shrimp pot quickly. In the first few days, after he gradually became familiar with peeling shrimp, a bloody, dirty, and even a bit humble job to most people on Herring Island, the speed of peeling shrimp gradually stabilized at about 20 a day. However, because of studying the Heart Clearing Mantra in the past few days, most of his mind has been on it. After all, if this is a problem, there may be problems in cultivation. Therefore, when peeling shrimps in the past few days, Shen Shi has been distracted from time to time, and the daily number of peeled shrimps has dropped from a stable 20 to only twelve or three.

This kind of obvious anomaly would of course be noticed by Starfish. After two days of silence, Starfish finally couldn't help but say a few words to Shen Shi yesterday. However, at this moment, Shen Shi has already solved the big problem. At this moment, I am full of joy and just want to do a good job of earning spiritual crystals. The number of spiritual crystals I will use in the future is huge, twice that of ordinary people!

When he thought of this, Shen Shi was a little impatient, and said, "It's okay, it's okay. I happened to have something a few days ago. It's all right now. Take out the shrimp pot soon!"

Haixing glanced at him with a little regret, sighed, and said, "It's rare to see you so motivated, but it's a pity that you can't peel shrimp today."

Shen Shi was blank, and said in amazement: "What?"

(Starting today, every day two chapters will be posted together at ten in the morning)
