Chapter 126 Four Wings
"Where did this bald donkey come from? He looks like he is quite skilled in Taoism!"
As dusk fell, Feng Qing'an looked far to the west and saw a faint golden light rising into the sky. It was particularly conspicuous under the gradually darkening sky.
This golden light was different from the righteous energy that was gradually recovering in his family. At first glance, they seemed similar, but Feng Qing'an did not have any special reaction to his own righteous golden light. If there was any effect, it was that it could remove distracting thoughts from his mind and allow him to enter into meditation and practice faster.
But the golden light in the sky that is difficult for ordinary people to see is different. If one stares at it for too long, Buddhist chants will sound in his mind, which is very annoying.
Feng Qing'an knew where the golden light came from. It was an old monk who came to the nearby area at the end of last year and funded the construction of the big temple. It must be said that this old monk was really rich.
Of course, it is also inseparable from the money and effort of the landlords and gentry in the surrounding area. The old monk has real skills, so it is not difficult for him to get these landlords to pay.
However, Feng Qing'an only went to take a look at the Bodhi Temple on the day it was completed because of the strange golden light. He was very far away and never approached it again. He was not interested in Buddhism, even though the old monk inside was a truly capable monk.
He had no interest in becoming a holy monk, and he didn't want to observe any of the Buddhist rules and regulations. Not to mention the prohibition on getting close to women, he couldn't stand the mere prohibition of eating meat.
Therefore, even if he really wanted to practice a method, he would definitely choose Taoism and cultivate immortality. It would be best if he could be like Donghuang, practice with a sword box, fly with the sword on the wind, and eliminate demons between heaven and earth. How cool that would be.
It's not like Feng Qing'an had not asked Donghuang for methods of cultivation, but the Lord of Youhuang did not hide anything from him and told him clearly that she could teach him all the magical skills, but she could not and dared not teach him the fundamental methods of cultivation.
The young man remembered that the king had said that it took her too much time to reincarnate after the catastrophe, and when she woke up, an especially long time had passed, so the Taoist practices she had mastered were already quite ancient traditions.
In the way of immortals, even the fundamental methods practiced by immortals will undergo slight changes every once in a while. Modifications once or twice may not make much of a difference, but hundreds or thousands of changes are enough to completely change a tradition, or make it more profound and complicated.
Therefore, Dong Huang believed that the immortal cultivation method she mastered might have been good in the past, but now, it might have been eliminated and put aside for reference, and was not suitable for cultivation at all.
You can practice, but after practicing, compared to today's cultivators at the same level, you may have more weaknesses and be targeted. Even if you have the same level of cultivation, you may be suppressed instantly in a fight.
After hearing the introduction, Feng Qing'an had to agree with this reason. Although he didn't have any requirements for it, even if it was an ancient version, it would be fine as long as he could practice it, but Donghuang didn't teach it.
She thought that if Feng Qing'an wanted to practice Taoism, he should practice the most advanced and top-level methods today, rather than the ancient heritage that she mastered.
Although it is possible to change the fundamental cultivation method, it is something that only immortals with a lifespan of 800 or over a thousand years can do slowly. For ordinary practitioners, it is best to choose the right method at the beginning, rather than changing it while practicing.
“It feels more and more lively!”
Feng Qing'an knew that he had once brought about a heavenly calamity, but he did not know how vast the scope of the calamity was, and how far away the impact had spread.
Although he felt something was amiss with the appearance of the Bodhi Temple, he did not take it too seriously, because Donghuang had told him: It was just a small temple that could be destroyed with one sword.
Therefore, Feng Qing'an still maintained his previous life habits without much change, and his daily practice was also orderly and not affected.
He condensed the seventh soul contract and stepped into the realm of the Lord of Heavenly Beasts, and his soul power underwent a transformation as a result.
However, only after he condenses the tenth soul contract and contracts a creature with potential or combat power above the lord level, can he be considered a qualified celestial beast master.
As for the target of the contract, Feng Qingan chose the giant skeleton that was still being cultivated for himself.
Although he had been persistently using his soul power to permeate the giant's skull and part of its collarbone, which had turned red-gold and emitted a faint luster, there was still a long way to go before he could awaken the giant.
However, he had enough time to prepare, because the practice of the Heavenly Beast Master was becoming increasingly difficult, and the feedback from the Soul Contract could only bring a very small improvement to him. And he could only feel a slight .
His practice has gone from rapid progress to a slow and steady accumulation phase. Every step forward requires a period of accumulation.
Such a slow practice, with hardly any visible results, is a great test of a Beastmaster's character and resilience. He had thought about seeking assistance from Donghuang, but after some communication, Feng Qing'an still chose to slowly accumulate soul power on his own.
It is not a good thing to keep making rapid progress during the practice. It means that practitioners will gradually get used to it. Once there is a slight stagnation or encounter a barrier to their realm, their mentality will easily become unbalanced and they will find it difficult to accept this stagnant state.
It is not a good thing to suddenly acquire great power in a very short period of time. If one's virtue is not worthy of his position, disaster will surely come. The mind of ordinary people can be easily distorted by the power they suddenly possess.
Cultivation should be done with a balance between relaxation and tension. Now that you have experienced rapid progress in cultivation, confirmed your qualifications, and know that you are suitable for this path, it is time to calm down, hone your character, and match your state of mind with the power you possess.
It is not just the growth of strength that is a form of practice; the tempering and transformation of one's state of mind is also a form of practice. In fact, because it is difficult to see and even more impossible to touch, this type of practice is even more difficult.
"The flowers of the Blazing Sun Tree should bloom tonight!"
Feng Qing'an didn't stare at the Buddha's light rising into the sky under the night sky for long. He turned around and walked towards the crack in the underworld. Patrolling to the underworld every night was his daily routine.
Entering the underworld, the power of the scorching sun filled his whole body. Even though the wind was howling, he was not afraid. He found Nan Ge, and amid the girl's excited eyes, he held her in his arms, and then took her to the ruins of the ancient battlefield.
Not long after, Feng Qing'an, running without sparing any effort, climbed up a mountain that gave off a cold and chilly aura like ten-thousand-year-old black ice. On the top of the mountain, he saw a seven-foot jade tree that gave off a blazing power.
The trunk was slender and straight, with only three branches and no more than twenty green jade-like leaves. Feng Qing'an felt that if he simply cut down the Chiyang tree at the roots and did some maintenance, he would be able to get a wooden stick of excellent quality.
Of course, even if he had a brain seizure, he couldn't do such a thing. He had cultivated this tree for half a year and couldn't even remember how much soul power he had poured into it.
"It's time to bloom. If it doesn't, it will be a bit inappropriate!"
Feng Qing'an pressed his palm on the tree trunk, and light red soul power poured out from his palm.
The Blazing Sun Tree, as always, accepted all comers and absorbed all soul power. However, while absorbing the soul power, it also began to inhale and exhale the huge amount of cold and gloomy air accumulated in the mountain where it was rooted.
Coo!
Red flames flashed on his shoulders, and a large cuckoo that seemed to be a size larger appeared. It stared at the huge flower bud that had not yet bloomed on the second branch, with a hint of expectation. It was about to have its own kind and would no longer be alone.
Coo!
The high-pitched cry of the little firebird was heard, and a rich floral fragrance permeated into Feng Qing'an's soul, lifting his spirits. The feedback from the soul contract also let Feng Qing'an know that the second flower bud had bloomed.
It was also at this moment that a secret technique was presented.
[Xuan Shou Zong·Side Quest: Founding a Sect, Completed! ]
[Reward: "Soul Devouring and Soul Infusing Technique", do you want to claim it? ]
"receive!"
After obtaining this secret technique, Feng Qingan checked the condition of the Blazing Sun Tree again.
[Fourth Soul Contract: Blazing Sun]
[Race: Blazing Sun Tree]
[Attributes: Yang, Wood, Heaven]
[Potential Level: Commander - Top]
[Combat Power Level: Commander - Low Level]
The potential and combat power increased at the same time, but Feng Qing'an was not very satisfied, because the potential of the Blazing Sun Tree had not been upgraded to the lord level. However, this was the fact, and he knew that he could not be impatient. This tree seemed to be in the accumulation stage just like him.
Chirp~
The crisp and melodious cries of the baby birds were heard, and the big cuckoo that was perched on the shoulder flew up and landed on the already blooming sunflower, watching its own kind that was currently building its body.
Coo coo
Coo coo
The second Yang Fire Spirit born on the Blazing Sun Tree had not yet explored how many sounds it could make before it was led astray by the Big Cuckoo and made the sound of a pigeon.
However, it also made Feng Qingan feel relieved. This newborn little guy could naturally be called Ergugu, and he didn't have to think of a name.
Wow!
The moment the second Cuckoo's body took shape, flames ignited on the bodies of the two little firebirds. The big Cuckoo soared into the sky and circled above the Blazing Sun Tree. Its body swelled under the lingering flames and began to grow larger.
The big cuckoo, which was originally not much bigger than a fist and almost the same size as a sparrow, suddenly grew in size in a very short period of time to the point where it could compete with domestic geese.
Although its size is still small, as a Yang Fire Essence without flesh and blood, the size is not the key to determining its combat power. The most important thing is its flame nature.
Although it was originally only comparable to a sparrow, even the tigers, leopards, jackals and wolves in the mountains did not dare to provoke it, not to mention the evil spirits and ghosts, who would retreat at the sight of it.
Now its size has further increased, not only in size, but more importantly, its essence has also further transformed and improved along with the growth of the Blazing Sun Tree.
Coo!
A cheerful cry rang out. The big cuckoo was very happy as he felt the power in his body further increase. The newly born second cuckoo also flapped its wings and rushed into the sky to play with the big cuckoo. For a moment, Feng Qingan could hardly tell them apart. After all, there was no difference in their essence.
"Big Gugu, come back!"
Feng Qing'an summoned with just words, and immediately a firebird circling in the sky obeyed the command. Its rapidly growing body began to shrink, returning to its previous state of a small firebird no bigger than a fist, and landed on the boy's shoulder.
Coo coo
The other one landed on a tree branch, tilting its head and looking at Feng Qing'an curiously. Although Feng Qing'an made it feel friendly and had a certain good impression of him, it did not realize what the young man in front of it meant to it.
So, what happened to the big cuckoo happened again. Feng Qingan used the "Divine Control Technique" and in less than a quarter of an hour, he made the newly born second cuckoo understand his status.
Who is their father?
"Come in!"
Feng Qing'an knew that the two little guys in front of him existed in a very special form and could be integrated into his body very smoothly. When he used the "Divine Control Technique", all the power would be under his control.
So, the idea that he had tried before but failed came to his mind again, and he had the idea of trying again. After all, the big cuckoo had become stronger, and there was an additional second cuckoo, which was more than a double increase.
Coo coo
Both Yang Fire Essences entered his body. He was already very familiar with the feeling. Even though it had increased dramatically now, he was still able to control the power.
Then, Feng Qing'an took a deep breath, and the blazing sun light burst out from behind him, turning into a surging stream of fire. In the eyes of Nan Ge standing by, it was as if four pillars of fire suddenly gushed out from Feng Qing'an's back, making her extremely uneasy.
"Feng Qing'an, what's wrong with you?"
"It's okay, I'm just trying it out!"
Feng Qing'an replied calmly that he didn't want to do anything, he just wanted to try flying, that was all.
This thought had already come to him when he saw that Black Mountain could use the Soul-Devouring Ghost Fire to ascend to the sky, but Black Mountain was not truly flying, it was merely able to hang in the air with the help of flames.
Feng Qing'an had also tried it, using the Soul-Devouring Ghost Fire to fly into the air, but his speed in the air was not as fast as running on the ground. How could he be satisfied with this?
So, he set his sights on Big Gugu, but the Big Gugu, which had not yet been promoted, was too weak in strength and its body was also very small.
Big Gugu has no way of getting any bigger and can only maintain that size. She is fundamentally different from the little phoenix Youyou. She can become the size of a fist because Youyou is willing.
Therefore, the final result of Feng Qing'an's attempt was just a pair of flaming wings that were not much bigger than chicken wings appeared behind him.
Although he could feel a force that lifted him off the ground and made him soar into the air, it was far from enough. But now, the conditions had been met.
The four pillars of fire gushing out from behind him gradually turned into the shape of wings under Feng Qing'an's arrangement and control. They were no longer the flaming chicken wings in the initial attempt, but the Yangyan wings that matched his current body shape.
The Four Wings of Yangyan!
