Chapter 801 Cultivation
"Master Qin, are you referring to the Immortal Qin?" Xu Boyu blurted out with a look of surprise on his face.
"That's right!" Xu Sheng nodded.
"Okay, okay, your father finally figured it out. Master Qin is so capable yet he can be so humble and sincere to others. I have never seen this before in my life. Even if I ask myself, I definitely can't do this.
Although I don't know his true origins yet, based on this point, I think it is better to rely on him than to rely on the Taishi family. At least he will treat us with sincerity!" Xu Boyu said.
"He more than treats us with sincerity!" Xu Sheng said, and then quickly recounted how Qin Ziling had originally taken the initiative to take care of the Zhou family's affairs and wanted to cultivate him into a ninth-grade true immortal.
"Okay, your uncle has had enough of this humiliation. Now the Xu family will finally have the moment to hold their heads high." Xu Boyu was very excited after hearing this.
"That's right!" Xu Sheng said, clenching his fists.
He is a person who cares a lot about his reputation. The Xu family has been oppressed for so many years, and he feels more aggrieved and helpless than anyone else in the Xu family!
"Let's go, let's go and pay a visit to the headmaster!" Xu Boyu urged.
"Don't worry, Uncle Jiu, you still have to explain what's going on here. Wuji Sect will continue to develop in secret, and the Zhou family's affairs will still have to be handled by our Xu family on the surface. Of course, the Taishi family will definitely come forward and warn Zhou Shixin not to take any action." Xu Sheng said.
"Are you so sure that the Taishi family will come forward to warn Zhou Shixin? What is the relationship between the headmaster and the Taishiba clan elders?" Xu Boyu was shocked and asked.
Xu Sheng thought about it and thought that given Xu Boyu's status and the current relationship between the Xu family and Wuji Sect, there was no need to hide this matter from Xu Boyu, so he whispered, "The two of them are sworn brothers. The headmaster is the elder brother and my cousin is the younger brother. And judging from my cousin's appearance, he respects the headmaster very much."
"Hiss!" Xu Boyu couldn't help but take a deep breath when he heard that.
Even though Tai Shi Ba has just broken through to become a Taoist immortal, with his extraordinary talent and status as the head of the family's eldest grandson, he is now actually the second most important person in the Tai Shi family.
"Haha! Zhou family, this time it's your turn to taste the frustration of being bullied!" Soon, Xu Boyu laughed out loud, feeling indescribably happy.
Seeing this, Xu Sheng also started laughing.
Soon Xu Boyu called his direct descendants, gave them a few instructions, and then he and Xu Sheng quietly left Xiaoruo Island under the cover of the dragon turtle shell.
"Your subordinate Xu Boyu greets the master!" In Yanlong Palace, Xu Boyu bowed his head as soon as he saw Qin Ziling.
"Xu Sheng should have told you everything about me, so I won't say much." Qin Ziling helped Xu Boyu up, and with a thought, the dragon turtle shell flew back into his hand and disappeared into his palm.
"Yes!" Xu Boyu stood up and said respectfully.
"Give me the Nine-bend Immortal Ganoderma. I know a pill recipe. If it is refined correctly, the medicinal effect of this immortal ganoderma can be multiplied." Qin Ziling said.
"Yes! Thank you, Master!" Upon hearing that, Xu Boyu hurriedly took out the Nine-bend Immortal Ganoderma and presented it with both hands.
Qin Ziling took the wooden box, opened it, looked at it, nodded and said, "It's in good condition."
After saying that, Qin Ziling put it away.
Then, Qin Ziling thought for a moment and said, "Since your Xu family's ancestors started out by refining weapons, I believe your Xu family must have a lot of experience and accomplishments in the fire-related avenues and weapon-refining formations.
As it happens, I also have quite a bit of experience and accomplishment in this area. If you have any confusion, you can ask me first. I will use your confusion as a breakthrough point to teach you and resolve your doubts."
Xu Bogu and the other two were surprised and delighted when they heard this.
In addition to lacking high-level resources that can produce seventh-grade immortals and above, their Xu family also lacks masters who can truly teach and answer questions.
One of the main reasons why big families and big forces can prosper forever is that they have Taoist immortals who can teach and answer questions, which is why true immortals of the seventh, eighth, ninth and other later stages can continue to emerge.
With the continuous emergence of True Immortals in the later stages, it is possible for Taoist Immortals to be born on this basis.
Otherwise, even if there are more True Immortals in the early and middle stages, they cannot reach the ninth level of True Immortal. For large forces and big families, the early cultivation is equivalent to wasting time.
It is precisely because of this that once a Taoist immortal of a large family or a powerful force dies, without people who can guide the more profound principles, it will be difficult to cultivate an eighth-grade or ninth-grade True Immortal. It will be difficult to give birth to a Taoist immortal again, and eventually the family or sect will fall.
The Xu family sent Xu Sheng to the Taishi family, actually they wanted Xu Sheng to stay with Taishi Ba and occasionally get guidance from the Taoist priest.
However, Tai Shi Ba practiced the Gengjin way of killing and conquering, and Xu Sheng followed him, which was not the right path for him. It was actually not suitable for him. It was just that there was no better choice.
Now Qin Ziling said that he had made great achievements in the art of fire and in refining equipment and setting up formations. This was naturally great news and an opportunity for the three of them.
"Thank you, Master!" The three were pleasantly surprised and bowed respectfully. Then the head of the family, Xu Bogu, began to ask for advice.
After Xu Bogu asked the question that confused him, Qin Ziling quickly gave an answer and then expanded on it to explain a lot more.
The one-eyed fire dragon is best at fire-related Taoism, refining equipment, alchemy and formation, and Emperor Zhu Chi is a half-master of the fire path. Qin Ziling obtained the Chidi Mountain which was transformed from his corpse, as well as the Five Elements Fruit Tree which was nourished by his flesh and blood and dominated by fire.
Therefore, if we really want to talk about the Dao of Yin and Yang and the Five Elements, the Dao of Mo Fire is the one that Qin Ziling is best at and has the deepest attainments in.
Therefore, when Qin Ziling's answer was unfolded, it was like a morning bell and an evening drum, like a wake-up call. The three people felt as if they had been enlightened. Many things they did not understand before suddenly became clear, and they gained a lot more understanding in their hearts.
All three of them were true immortals who had practiced for thousands of years and had accumulated a wealth of experience. With this realization, their cultivation had improved unknowingly.
"Among the three, Xu Sheng has the highest talent and comprehension, and the strongest fire spirit root. Xu Boyu is the second, and the head of the family, Xu Bogu, is the last." In the Niwan Palace, the one-eyed fire dragon, which had merged with another piece of debris, poked its head out and said to Qin Ziling's soul and golden body.
"Xu Boyu is not a direct descendant of the Xu family, but he can stand out and become the patriarch of the Xu family. He is an eighth-grade true immortal, so he must have some extraordinary qualities. But he is even more powerful than Xu Bogu, which is somewhat beyond my expectation." Qin Ziling nodded to the fire dragon.
"After you finish teaching, ask Xu Bogu to open the Flame Dragon Earth Vein so that I can go in and recuperate for a few days." said the Fire Dragon.
"How do you feel now, senior?" Qin Ziling asked.
"Very good, the strength has improved significantly." said the one-eyed fire dragon.
…
Two days later, Qin Ziling stopped teaching and asked Xu Bogu to open the Flame Dragon Vein first.
As soon as the Flame Dragon Vein was opened, the one-eyed fire dragon turned into a beam of fire and sank into it.
As soon as the one-eyed fire dragon entered the Flame Dragon's vein, the power of the vein not only did not weaken, but because of the dragon energy of the one-eyed fire dragon, its quality changed and its power became even stronger.
The one-eyed fire dragon was nurtured in the Flame Dragon Earth Vein, and his whole mind was at peace, and it merged more and more seamlessly with the damaged Nine Dragon Divine Fire Cover.
The changes in the Flame Dragon Earth Vein shocked Xu Bogu and the other two.
But what shocked them even more was what happened next.
Qin Ziling actually gave them half a head of ninth-grade relic species roast meat, six leaves of nine-leaf sky-patterned grass, a Nine-bend Nine-orifice Pill made with Nine-bend Immortal Ganoderma as the main ingredient, thirty Dust-free Immortal Pills of different qualities, and twenty "Du'e Immortal Pills" of different grades.
Six of them are sixth-grade "Du'e Immortal Pills".
The sixth-grade "Deliverance Pill" usually requires a Taoist immortal to refine. The Xu family has already run out of stock, so they need to spend a large amount of immortal stones or other resources to purchase it.
With these six sixth-grade "Du'e Immortal Pills" and some Wuchen Immortal Pills, with the Xu family's background, it should not be a problem to cultivate two or three seventh-grade true immortals.
Ten days later.
Xu Sheng was the first to survive the catastrophe of wind and fire and became a ninth-grade true immortal.
Qin Ziling was not surprised at all that Xu Sheng became a ninth-grade true immortal.
Xu Sheng is different from the Wuji Sect disciples. He has practiced hard for thousands of years and accumulated experience step by step before reaching the eighth level. He has accumulated enough experience and a solid foundation. According to Huolong's judgment, Xu Sheng even has the potential to become a Taoist immortal.
It can be said that Xu Sheng's situation is very similar to that of Yue Huai, the leader of the Jiuxuan Sect, except that he has not yet reached the deadline to survive the wind and fire tribulation.
The resources Qin Ziling gave him were ninth-grade blood and flesh , as well as Nine-Leaf Sky-Pattern Grass that could help ninth-grade True Immortals comprehend the Taoist path. It could be said that they were cultivated beyond their level. If Xu Sheng could not make another breakthrough, his hope of becoming a Taoist immortal in the future would be very slim.
As soon as Xu Shengyi became a ninth-rank true immortal, Qin Ziling took out the Fire Crow Sword and ordered him to take his souvenir and ride the Fire Crow Sword to quickly go to Taishi's house to find Taishi Ba!
Twenty days after Xu Sheng left, Xu Boyu also survived the catastrophe of wind and fire and became the second ninth-grade true immortal in the Xu family. However, the head of the family, Xu Bogu, was still stuck in the eighth-grade true immortal realm and failed to take that crucial step.
More haste, less speed. Seeing that Xu Bogu could not take that step in a short period of time, Qin Ziling asked him to stop his hard training and called Xu Boyu and Xu Bogu over.
"I have stayed on Daluo Island for quite a long time, and I will be setting off to return to Jiuxuan Mountain soon. Although I have ordered Xu Sheng to take my letter to the Taishi Mansion, the iron must be hardened before it can be forged. If Zhou Shixin is desperate, your protective formation will have to withstand Zhou Shixin's attack and hold out until reinforcements arrive.
So these days, I have specially explored the terrain and veins of Daruo Island and Xiaoruo Island to see if I can make some efforts in the island protection formation. As a result, I found that many places of the veins were damaged, and the formation also showed signs of damage and breakage. "Qin Ziling said.
"Since the passing of our ancestor, the Xu family has gone through several catastrophes in history, and the earth veins and formations have been damaged. Originally, Xiaoruo Island and Daruo Island were not that far apart. The Flame Dragon Earth Vein on Daruo Island had a branch extending to Xiaoruo Island.
Once the formation was activated, the two islands, one large and one small, became one and could support each other. However, after several battles, many places between the two islands collapsed, and the branch of the Flame Dragon vein was also broken, and the connection between the two islands was cut off.
Not only that, many of the magic tools that suppress the center of the formation have also collapsed or been damaged. Those magic tools that suppress the center of the formation were left by our ancestors. Both the materials and the refining techniques are top-notch. We, the descendants, have no way to refine and repair them again. We can only use some inferior products to make up for it.
In this way, the power of the formation will be greatly weakened. If a Taoist immortal attacks, it can only resist for a while, and will eventually be broken. "Xu Bogu sighed.
