Chapter 551: The Yellow Turban Warrior turns beans into soldiers!
Chang'an, Xuandu Courtyard.
After Li Daoxuan came back, he did not go directly to see the emperor. Instead, he sat cross-legged in meditation and took nectar of hundreds of flowers to completely recover from his injuries.
Afterwards, he carefully summarized the gains and losses of Dengzhou.
Unlike the battle in Luoyang where he killed Moro, in the battle of Dengzhou, he did not mobilize anyone, but killed the Locust God with his own strength and planning.
Although there were some omissions in some details, overall he had tried his best.
But behind this matter, there is still a dark cloud that has not yet been revealed.
What exactly is in that bronze box?
The Turkic high priest spent so much effort on this, the bronze box must be of vital importance and contain some unspeakable secret.
It’s a pity that the secret of the universe calculated by his Zi Wei Dou Shu was a mess. Not only him, but even Li Chunfeng and Yuan Tiangang could not figure it out.
This did not make Li Daoxuan relax, but made him more suspicious.
You know, with his current level of cultivation, there are very few things that he cannot calculate, unless they involve some secrets of heaven and earth or ancient great powers.
For example, he couldn't figure out the whereabouts of the Green-Robed Lady, and he also couldn't figure out the whereabouts of the gods in heaven and Lingshan.
After thinking for a moment, Li Daoxuan shook his head.
There is no use thinking too much. Compared with unknown dangers, the most important thing is to improve your own strength.
Compared to five years ago, he has become much stronger, but it is still not enough.
Close your eyes, communicate with the "Demon-Slaying Book" with your mind, and choose to extract the reward for killing the Locust God.
The next moment, the Heavenly Book glowed, and instilled all the practice methods and experiences of turning beans into soldiers into soldiers into Li Daoxuan. The information was so vast and complex that an ordinary person would probably become stupid due to the huge mental shock.
Li Daoxuan's soul gradually immersed in the contemplation of supernatural powers.
Three images emerged in his mind.
The first picture is a Yellow Turban Warrior, with immortal light blooming, as bright as clouds.
The second picture shows the ghost soldiers in Fengdu, which are full of ghostly aura and dark as hell.
The third picture is of the Buddhist Vajra, with a compelling aura and bursts of Sanskrit sounds.
Li Daoxuan needs to make a choice.
At this moment, he finally understood the mystery of the magical power of turning beans into soldiers, and that it actually had three branches, namely Heaven, Hell, and Lingshan.
Choosing different visualization pictures will result in different effects of sowing beans to create soldiers.
Without much hesitation, Li Daoxuan made his choice. With a thought, he immersed his mind into the scroll of the Yellow Turban Warrior and began to visualize silently.
As a Taoist priest from Mount Longhu, he naturally chose the Heavenly Court lineage.
Just think about it, in the future you can summon a hundred thousand heavenly soldiers and generals with just a wave of your hand, wouldn’t that be awesome?
Moreover, Taoist Master Xuancheng of Maoshan Sect also chose to visualize the Yellow Turban Warrior. Maoshan Sect has a complete inheritance of this great magical power. Masters in every generation have practiced it and left behind their experiences.
This shows that the visualization diagram of the Heavenly Court lineage has the greatest potential.
I don't know who painted this fairy picture, but it is so lifelike and fascinating, as if it will speak at the next moment.
The strong man in the painting had a face as red as ruby, a beard as white as soap wool, a body as if he was ten feet tall, and had a strength of ten thousand pounds.
Beside the yellow turban, a golden ring shines with the sun's rays, in the middle of the embroidered jacket, iron armor is covered with frost and swallows the moon's shadow!
Li Daoxuan suddenly discovered that the Yellow Turban Warrior he had visualized was somewhat different from the Warrior summoned by Taoist Xuancheng, as if it had some indescribable charm.
After an unknown amount of time, he finally memorized the image and spirit of the strong man in the painting, and then slowly opened his eyes.
A handful of soybeans has been placed in front of me.
He took out one of them, recalled the image of the Yellow Turban Warrior in his mind, and used his magic power to imprint it on the soybean.
This process requires absolute caution, and every stroke must be correct, otherwise all previous efforts will be wasted immediately.
Fortunately, Li Daoxuan had been enlightened by the heavenly book and was familiar with the key points. Although it was his first time practicing, he did not encounter any problems.
Looking at the lifelike Hercules pattern on the soybeans, he breathed a sigh of relief.
The diagram of the branded warrior is the most critical part of practicing the art of turning beans into soldiers. Once you succeed in this, there will be no major problems.
Then Li Daoxuan followed the practice method, taking a breath of Taiyin Qi, and at dawn, he took a breath of Eastern Azure Dragon Qi, and at noon he took a breath of Taiyang Qi, and injected the three Qi into the soybeans at the same time.
In an instant, the originally ordinary soybean seemed to have some kind of compelling charm, as if a paper figure had eyes painted on it.
The beans are turned into soldiers, it's done!
This great divine power of Tiangang does not seem to be difficult to practice, but that is because Li Daoxuan's foundation is so good, and with the infusion of the Heavenly Book, he can achieve twice the result with half the effort.
Li Daoxuan himself practiced the "Huangting Ancient Scripture", a true immortal method, which was very consistent with the heavenly lineage.
In addition, his cultivation is very high. He is now in the middle stage of Yang Shen and is only one step away from the late stage. With the help of Tiandun Sword Intent and his strong and tenacious spirit, he can achieve rapid success within a few days.
This is just like Zhang Wuji who learned the Nine Yang Magic Art and was able to perfect the Great Shift of the Universe within a few hours.
"Congratulations, Daddy, you have mastered another great magical power!"
The little flower god was smiling happily and flying joyfully in the air. He was even happier than if he had achieved magical powers.
She had just woken up from her sleep and saw that her father was glowing with fairy light and a golden-armored general was faintly visible behind him, like a guardian deity. She knew that her father had become even more powerful!
Of course, this is all thanks to her assistance!
Li Daoxuan smiled and shook his head.
The great supernatural power of Tiangang is not that simple. He has only achieved the initial stage of cultivation. Now he can only summon the Yellow Turban Warrior. If he goes one step further, he will be able to visualize the picture of the Six Jia Divine Generals. Then, the soybeans he sprinkles will be extraordinary.
"Oh, Daddy, this bean is so scary!"
The little flower god was very spiritual. When she saw the soybean in Li Daoxuan's hand, she was suddenly frightened and flew back to Li Daoxuan's hair in an instant, revealing only a pair of timid little eyes, peeking secretly.
"Daddy, he's so fierce!"
Li Daoxuan was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said, "Don't worry, he is Daddy's subordinate and will not hurt you."
Li Daoxuan wanted to test the power of turning beans into soldiers, but after thinking about it, he stopped, because it took a lot of magic power and energy to refine such a soybean , and it would be a pity if he just used it like this.
Suddenly, an idea came to him.
Without moving his body, his soul left the room.
The sun is pouring down and the sunset is like a rainbow.
He practiced for six days, but he felt it was only a moment. In a trance, he had the illusion that he was isolated from time.
As Li Daoxuan's cultivation continued to improve, especially after he was promoted to the Yangshen Realm, he felt the passage of time more and more.
If you enter into a state of meditation for a while, several days will pass by like the snap of a finger.
No wonder those great monks in the Yangshen realm like to hide in the mountains to practice in seclusion, not wanting to be disturbed by the secular world. Some of them have not appeared in the world for more than ten years.
In the courtyard, the white snake was sleeping in the pond. Ever since it had seen the dragon swallowing locusts last time, it seemed to have received some inspiration, and its bottleneck had loosened, and it was gaining insights carefully.
As a result, Xiaotian had no choice but to look for Wu Wei to play with him. The man and the dog were arm in arm, and no one knew what they were talking about.
How about asking Awei to do that?
Li Daoxuan's Yang Shen approached the two people and heard their conversation.
"Woof woof, our combined attack technique is now complete. From now on, we will kill gods and Buddhas!"
Wu Wei thought for a moment and said, "I have a suggestion that can make our combined attack technique even more powerful. We just need to make a few small changes!"
"What changes?"
"Xiaotian, where do you bite when you bite people?"
"My thighs, the thigh root hurts the most. If I bite you, even if you are indestructible, you will cry for your parents!"
Xiaotian was very confident and said without thinking.
Wu Wei chuckled, leaned forward and whispered, "Xiaotian, have you ever thought that if you lift the place where you were bitten a little higher, would it hurt more?"
hiss!
Xiaotian sucked in a breath of cold air, his eyes widened and he stared at Wu Wei.
Wu Wei was a little embarrassed and coughed, "Well, this move is indeed too vulgar. If you don't want to--"
"Yue Lao, you are such a genius!"
Xiaotian shouted excitedly, "Why didn't I think of that?"
Wu Wei opened his mouth and said, "You... aren't you afraid of getting dirty?"
Xiaotian chuckled, looking proud.
"I eat shit, so why am I afraid of this?"
Wu Wei: “…”
Li Daoxuan: “…”
In an instant, he gave up the idea of letting Wu Wei do that. This guy was too frivolous. And Xiaotian, he had to keep some distance from him in the future .
Look around.
Lou Ling and Wang Bo were not here. Lu Chunliang had consumed too many talismans in Dengzhou before, and now he went back to Maoshan to purchase more.
Changle and Dianmu were having a great time chatting.
…
After a moment.
Dianmu entered the room and her eyes were a little dazed when she saw the national teacher.
The green robe made him look even more elegant and generous. His face was as handsome as jade, his eyes were as bright as stars, his long hair like ink was stuck diagonally with a wooden hairpin, and his facial features were handsome and as if they were carved.
The most important thing is the otherworldly aura as bright as the moon, which is not deliberately controlled, but is revealed naturally in every gesture.
He seemed like an immortal figure walking out of a painting, totally unlike any human being.
When Dian Mu looked at him, she felt as if she was looking at a bright moon or a morning glow.
A girl's heart is like fragrant grass.
She was beautiful and held a high position. Many people, whether they were the princes and sons of the royal family in Chang'an or the rising stars in the world of Taoism, had expressed their admiration for her.
However, she always found those people unpleasant to her eyes.
It’s not that they are not excellent, but in her best years, she happened to meet someone who is too amazing.
However, she knew very well that there was a huge gap between herself and the national teacher, so she kept her youthful admiration hidden in her heart, practiced hard, and tried to achieve more results.
Who would have thought that something bad almost happened in Dengzhou, to the point that the imperial teacher had to take action himself. It's really shameful.
"You did a good job in Dengzhou this time."
Hearing the words of the national master, Dianmu raised her head suddenly, her pretty face burning hot under the mask, thinking that the national master was mocking her.
Li Daoxuan shook his head and said with a smile: "Although I was a bit reckless at the beginning, I later realized my mistake and took the initiative to help Liu Mingyue fight the enemy, which can be regarded as making up for it."
"You really don't blame me?"
“It’s no wonder that I work hard for my country.”
"But I have another thing I want you to do to go to Yinshan."
Dian Mu's eyes lit up with joy, and she immediately said, "This time, I will be very careful and prudent, and I will live up to my mission!"
What she was most worried about was that the imperial teacher would no longer be willing to use her.
The soybeans in Li Daoxuan's hand floated up and fell into Dianmu's hands. They looked ordinary and no different from other soybeans.
The Hercules pattern on it can only be seen by the caster.
"Take this with you and rush to Yinshan to help General Li Jing."
Dian Mu looked at the soybean with some doubt and asked, "Master, this, isn't this just a soybean?"
It is neither a magic weapon nor a panacea, which is really confusing.
Li Daoxuan smiled slightly and said, "Remember, you can only use this item when the Tang army is in danger. Next, concentrate and listen carefully. I will teach you the formula."
Dianmu immediately concentrated and wrote down all the words of the imperial teacher meticulously.
Before leaving, she hesitated for a moment and asked, "Master, is our Tang Dynasty... going to go to war with the Turks?"
Although during these five years, the Tang Dynasty had rest and recuperation, reduced taxes and levies, and the national strength improved a lot.
But in the world today, the Turks are the strongest country. From the Khitan in the east to the Tuyuhun and Gaochang countries in the west, most of them are surrendered. They have millions of troops under their command, and their prosperity is unprecedented in history.
Moreover, from the second to the eighth year of Wude, the Turks invaded the Tang Dynasty eight times, burning, killing and looting countless people. The Weishui Alliance, which left nine out of ten houses in Chang'an empty, was signed during the eighth invasion.
The fear of the Turks lurks in the hearts of countless Tang people.
Li Daoxuan did not answer the question directly. He looked out the window, looking at the magnificent sunset and the boundless sky with deep eyes.
"Some people cannot die in vain."
"It's time to settle some accounts."
…
The Mother of Lightning left Chang'an City overnight, flying through the sky like lightning, heading towards the distant Yin Mountains.
A figure came to Xuandu courtyard at night.
He is handsome and heroic, as vigorous as a dragon and a tiger, with a hint of excitement in his eyes. He is none other than the current emperor, Li Shimin!
"Father, why are you here?"
Changle put down the willow branch in her hand and stood in front of Li Shimin with a smile. Her hair was tied into two long braids and she was wearing a green lotus skirt that fluttered slightly in the night breeze, looking youthful and playful.
"Master is resting. He fought a great battle with the Locust God in Dengzhou and was injured. Please don't bother him~"
On the scale called master and father, Changle has completely tilted to one side.
Li Shimin was angry and amused, and said, "Okay, now you dare to stop my father?"
Changle straightened her chest. Although she was a young girl, she already had a graceful figure.
"Father, every time you come to see Master, it's always bad news. Last time you went to Dengzhou to fight the locust god, and the time before that you went to Luoyang to fight Moruo. I don't know where you're going this time..."
Changle pouted, feeling sorry for her master.
Li Shimin glared at her and scolded her with a smile: "Well, now you have grown strong and not only dared to escape from the palace secretly, but also dared to talk back to the emperor?"
He hit Changle's head hard.
“Hmm…”
Changle felt pain.
Li Shimin was still not satisfied. His own little cotton-padded jacket was so leaky that he had to teach him a lesson . He stretched out his hand and was about to knock it a few more times.
The door suddenly opened automatically.
Li Daoxuan's voice sounded slowly.
"Your Majesty, why bother arguing with mere folly? Please come in."
Li Shimin shook his head and laughed, "Too impulsive, just spoil her, she's almost spoiled!"
After that, he entered the room and the door closed automatically.
Changle snorted and murmured, "Father, since you are unkind, don't blame me for being unjust. I will go to my mother tomorrow and tell her that you secretly visited a brothel when you were on a private visit outside the palace..."
