Alienated Martial Arts

The sun rises in the east and reflects on the earth.

The temperature begins to rise rapidly.

As expected, today is another hot and dry day.

The only exception is the spiritual field in the mountains.

The sky is covered with tiny clouds.

There was also a patter of rain falling.

While bringing a comfortable coolness, it also gathers a richer aura.

Wei Tao took a deep breath and kept breathing.

Immerse yourself in this indescribable feeling.

To him, it doesn't matter whether the spiritual energy is strong or not.

What is really important is that through the effect of Xiaoyunyu Technique, it has suddenly become something that can be absorbed by itself from an existence that it could only perceive but could not touch before.

And it has quite good effects in nourishing the body.

I have to say that Xiaoyun Yushu is indeed a good thing.

I just don’t know what requirements I need to meet if I want to learn, in order to become a disciple of Lan Yue and successfully acquire this spiritual technique.

Time passed little by little.

Before I knew it, the clouds had stopped and the rain had stopped.

The whole process only lasted a few minutes.

"This has just begun, is it over?"

Wei Tao suddenly came back to his senses, looked up at the clouds that had disappeared, and felt that he still had something to say.

But in the next moment.

He suddenly remembered something.

He quickly withdrew his gaze and focused on the spiritual field not far away.

At a glance, Wei Tao opened his mouth, and the smile on his face suddenly disappeared.

Under the increasingly hot sunlight, the rows of spiritual plants were all dried up and looked miserable and half-dead.

"I was just so absorbed in it that I accidentally sucked too much and too hard, and it ended up like this."

"Qin Dong struggled in and out for several days, and finally passed out from exhaustion. Most of the small cloud and rain technique he finally used was sucked in by me."

Thoughts flashed through Wei Tao's mind, and he was thinking about where it would be more convenient to divert water for irrigation, when a low moan suddenly sounded in his ears.

"Oh, my head hurts."

Qin Dong closed his eyes and murmured to himself, "Brother Wei, let's go. We are done here and don't need to worry about it for the time being."

"Go back and have a good sleep first, and then I'll get some good food and two jars of old wine. We brothers have been busy for so long, so we have to have some fun and have a few sips."

Wei Tao coughed lightly, "Senior Brother Qin, I have experience in cooking. Of course I can accompany you while drinking. However, the problem lies in these spiritual fields. It seems that there is still some distance between the work and the completion."

"Brother Wei, are you kidding me?"

"You may not know yet, but the greatest effect of my Xiaoyunyu Technique is not in irrigation, but in attracting condensed spiritual energy.

With the protection of these auras, even if the things in the fields are exposed to the sun for a while, there will be absolutely no problem. "

"If you don't believe me, look at these watery branches and leaves. Are they very different from before?"

Qin Dong said slowly, stood up and glanced in the direction of Lingtian.

"Gan Linliang, why do you look completely the same!?"

He was suddenly startled and couldn't help but close his eyes.

After a moment, it slowly opened again.

Then close it again and open it again.

Snapped! ! !

There was a crisp sound without any warning.

Qin Dong slapped himself hard.

His face turned red and white, and he murmured to himself as if he couldn't believe it, "Come on, Brother Wei, punch me as hard as you can to see if I'm dreaming."

"Senior Brother Qin's request is too strange, and I really can't accept it."

Wei Tao sighed as he spoke, "Actually, Senior Brother Qin is very awake now, and I saw no change in the spiritual plants in the field, which is exactly the same as what you observed."

"It's impossible. I have practiced Xiaoyunyu Technique hard for so many years. It is the only and most familiar spiritual technique. What's more, in order to succeed once, all the things used to perform the technique are prepared according to the top rules. I don't even think about it. It should be disabled.”

"Is it because I was in a bad state this time and passed out too early, which caused the Xiaoyunyu Technique to fail?"

Qin Dong was silent for a long time, thinking hard and finding it difficult to accept.

But the scene in front of him forced him to admit that something was really wrong with Xiaoyunyushu.

The spiritual rain that was supposed to fall did not fall on the fields.

The atmosphere suddenly became extremely tense.

"This issue must be dealt with before the teacher comes back."

"Otherwise, if I let her see the spiritual field I planted turning into this, I'm afraid I will be beaten to death by her."

Wei Tao sighed, "Is it so serious?"

Qin Dong also sighed, "Brother Wei, do you know what the teacher did with Senior Sister Shang?"

Without waiting for Wei Tao to answer, he continued.

“It’s not because of the resurgence of the star ring that spiritual planters are not taken seriously and have become much more constrained than before.

After all, the harvest from planting spiritual fields alone can only meet the needs of daily life at most. If you want to continuously improve your cultivation level, you must find ways to increase revenue and reduce expenditure in order to be able to supply the consumption of various resources.

That is to say, the teacher has secret magic and spiritual skills inherited from his family. In addition to planting spiritual fields, he can also work part-time as a secret medicine master, so he can go out to take on employment tasks from time to time, so as to earn more jade money to meet our cultivation needs. "

Speaking of this, Qin Dong stood up unsteadily and looked over with burning eyes.

"Brother Wei, can I ask you something?"

Wei Tao coughed lightly and said, "Whatever Brother Qin said, given our relationship, if you have anything to say, just say it directly. Using the word "begging" would be too intrusive, wouldn't it."

Qin Dong kept circling on the edge of the field and stopped suddenly after a long time.

"I want you to join me and perform the Little Cloud and Rain Technique again in the shortest possible time."

"When Brother Wei helped me prepare together in the house before, he was already familiar with the material preparation of Xiaoyunyu Technique. In this way, the two of us can try to further divide the work and cooperate.

I will carve the required runes, and you can prepare other materials as required. After I finish carving the runes, I can directly pour spiritual power into it, which can save at least half of the time. "

Wei Tao nodded, "Okay, everything will go according to Senior Brother Qin's plan."

The two immediately returned to their residence and started a new round of preparations.

Qin Dong was really anxious. He didn't even have time to drink when he returned, so he threw Wei Tao a torn-up volume and asked him to follow the records on it.

He himself dove into the house and started carving the lines in a hurry.

Wei Tao took this spiritual art book and didn't even believe it for a moment. He didn't need any test or apprenticeship at all to get the inheritance of Xiaoyunyushu.

He flipped through the cover and quickly became immersed in it.

Xiaoyunyu Technique is divided into the material chapter, the rune chapter, and the final spellcasting chapter.

In order to complete the preparations as quickly as possible, Wei Tao put aside the two chapters on Talisman Casting and read the chapter on material preparation in detail.

In the process, he constantly combined theory with practice, recalling Qin Dong's practical steps over and over again, and suddenly felt more confident.

It has to be said that Qin Dong's talent in spiritual practice may be average, but his attitude is definitely serious and rigorous.

The notes he took for the material chapter alone were meticulous and all aspects were taken into consideration, saving a lot of time and energy for his study and understanding.

Preparing the casting materials for Xiaoyunyu Technique is not simple, especially for beginners. From the initial selection, to the proportioning in the middle, to the subsequent refining and other steps, it is not a big deal to complete it accurately in one step. Easy things.

But for Wei Tao, after a long period of martial arts practice, even with a serious injury that has not healed, doing these tasks is almost as simple as eating and drinking.

The process was smooth and smooth from beginning to end, even easier than Qin Dong doing it himself.

He concentrated, completely immersed in it.

Even forgetting the passage of time.

Until all materials are prepared.

Checked it against the volume at least three times.

He then sorted everything and pushed open the closed door.

The sun was setting and the sky was getting dark.

Wei Tao stared at the sunset on the horizon and suddenly had some doubts in his heart.

It's not dark yet, does it mean that it only took him two or three hours to prepare all the materials?

And in his opinion, the entire process can be further optimized, which can at least shorten the working hours by nearly half.

Thinking back to when I was following Qin Dong, excluding the carving of the talisman lines, it took more than two days to prepare the materials.

So, after spending so much time and energy before, most of the time was actually just fishing?

Seeing that it was still early, and the door on Qin Dong's side was closed and there was no movement, Wei Tao returned to the room and began to study the subsequent Talisman Lines seriously.

The night is hazy and the breeze is cool.

Under the light of the stars and the moon, the ring in the sky was slightly clearer than during the day.

It is no longer a blurry image, and you can even roughly see the direction of the mountains and rivers above.

At midnight, Wei Tao pushed the door open again.

While recalling and thinking about the key points mentioned in the Fu Line Chapter, he walked towards the room where Qin Dong was.

The room was pitch dark, not even a light was lit.

Wei Tao knocked on the door lightly several times, but there was no response.

But there was a faint sound of snoring, whirling and floating under the night.

"It took Qin Dong three days to carve the talisman lines last time, but this time he completed all the work in less than a day."

"It seems that under tremendous pressure, everyone will improve their work efficiency and will not show their strongest strength until the last moment."

Wei Tao thought silently and opened the door with a creak.

Qin Dong lay there sleeping soundly.

On the table and the floor, the spiritual paper and line pens used to draw the lines were scattered everywhere.

Moreover, most of the spiritual papers are blank, with only an unfinished line pattern placed in front of them.

"Senior Brother Qin was so stressed that he fell asleep directly."

Wei Tao helped him put on a coat and was about to turn around and leave, but his eyes fell on the spiritual paper and pencil, and the steps he had just raised stopped again.

At night, I practiced the Talisman Chapter of Xiaoyunyu Technique.

As a result, there is now so much material in front of us.

He immediately felt a little itchy and couldn't help but want to try it out.

Wei Tao took a deep breath and exhaled slowly.

Silently reciting the key points of carving the talisman lines in his mind, the pen tip gently landed on the spiritual paper.

Swish, swish, swish!

As time went on, his movements became faster and faster.

The lines in the brush seem to have life and spirituality, and they seem to be meandering spontaneously.

It is not people who are painting, but the lines that exist, driving the hand holding the pen to trace the lines and traces.

The more Wei Tao paints, the better he becomes.

Not only did I not feel bored, I even experienced a different kind of happiness.

Even the lingering headache was significantly relieved during this process.

Each line pattern is finished.

He was almost completely immersed in it, as if he had returned to the distant past.

At that time, he was still practicing hard in Cangyuan City.

During the day, he practiced red line boxing hard in the martial arts studio.

When I get home at night, I will hide in the firewood shed and spend half the night looking at the moon-washing catalogue, which can drive me crazy.

Perhaps it was from that time on that he developed the habit of being particularly meticulous and patient.

Especially for the complicated and messy silk threads, it has its own unique analysis method.

Swish, swish, swish!

There is a ravine in my heart, and I feel like I have a spirit when I write.

After an unknown amount of time, Wei Tao lifted his pen tip off the paper, as if he had completed a delicate and complex painting. In addition to being a little exhausted, he was also filled with an inexplicable sense of satisfaction.

Only then did he realize to his surprise that he had used up all the spiritual paper.

Moreover, there is not a single defective piece in it. Almost every painting can be regarded as a classic with precise strokes and strokes. It is definitely much more standardized than Qin Dong's last painting. .

Wei Tao stacked the pieces of spiritual paper neatly in order, and couldn't help but let out a long breath again.

No wonder he felt a little tired now. It turned out that Qin Dong was afraid that he would make a mistake in carving the talisman pattern, so he prepared four times the amount of spiritual paper.

And when he was in poor mental and physical condition, he finished drawing four symbols of the Xiaoyunyu Technique in one breath. Naturally, he consumed a lot of money, which even caused a headache caused by the incompatibility of spirit and flesh. .

Wei Tao calmed down and regained his energy.

Observe the completed line pattern carefully.

In his eyes, they seemed to really come alive.

Every line and every texture seems to have an inexplicable connection with heaven and earth.

There is also a looming spiritual meaning attached to and lingering on the spiritual paper, like a person breathing in and out.

This wonderful feeling reminded him of the mysterious threads that carry mysterious thoughts and entrust true spirits.

Although the two sides are definitely not the same thing, they have many similarities in some aspects.

Snap!

Suddenly there was a soft sound.

Wei Tao's thoughts were interrupted.

He turned and looked out the window.

The wind seemed stronger than before.

The branches and leaves of the trees not far away were swaying.

It also brought a gradually thicker humidity, and even a light mist appeared around it.

Wei Tao frowned slightly and felt deeply.

The next moment, something surprised him.

In the mist surrounding the house, there is actually a gathering of spiritual energy.

It's like a weakened version of Xiaoyunyu.

It just turns the rain into mist.

"Is this the effect caused by the rune pattern?"

"Why didn't this happen last time?"

"If other materials are attached and then operated according to the final spell casting chapter, what will happen?"

Thoughts emerged in Wei Tao's mind one after another. He quickly cleaned up the mess, got new spiritual paper to replace the talisman lines he had drawn, and immediately returned to the room to start studying more deeply.

Compared with the materials chapter and the rune chapter, the final casting chapter is much more difficult and obscure.

The real difficulty lies in communicating with heaven and earth with spirit. In the process, one can understand and perceive the spiritual energy between heaven and earth, and then guide and gather it according to certain rules. Only in this way can one successfully perform a spiritual technique.

The previously prepared materials and the drawn lines are roughly equivalent to the containers and tools for collecting spiritual energy.

As for what kind of operating mode it is inside, Wei Tao is still at the level where he knows it but doesn't know why it is, so naturally he cannot analyze it thoroughly and make it clear.

If you are a newcomer with average talent, it is indeed not easy to understand the content of the spell casting chapter without the guidance of a teacher.

Just like Qin Dong, it takes a lot of time and energy to learn, and a lot of materials to try and make mistakes, before it is possible to successfully perform the Little Cloud and Rain Technique.

But here in Wei Tao, he has a variety of rich cultivation experience, especially based on the art of chasing the sun, and similar exercises such as Yuan Yuan Tempering as the basis, coupled with the assistance of Qin Dong's surprisingly detailed notes, he immediately Greatly reduces the difficulty of understanding the spellcasting chapter.

Time passed quietly.

Soon the morning light will dew, and the sky will be bright.

It's the darkest time before dawn.

Qin Dong was still sleeping soundly.

Even the prone position did not change at all.

He was completely unaware of what was happening outside.

At this moment, Wei Tao pushed open the door and walked out.

After bringing all the materials and the talisman scroll, I silently came to the spiritual field in the mountains.

After a lot of work, everything is ready.

Wei Tao took a deep breath and exhaled slowly.

According to the requirements of the spell casting chapter, understand and perceive the spiritual energy, and try to attract and condense it.

"Little Cloud Rain Technique!"

His hands transformed the seals like lightning, and he suddenly let out a low shout.

After completing the last seal required in the spellcasting chapter, Wei Tao slowly raised his head and looked towards the sky that was gradually becoming brighter.

There was no change in the sky above Lingtian.

There was no cool breeze blowing.

There are no little clouds forming.

Not to mention the raindrops containing spiritual energy.

"Did the spiritual spellcasting fail?"

"All steps were executed strictly in accordance with the specifications. Where did the problem occur?"

Wei Tao fell into silence, thinking about possible mistakes.

At this moment, a thunder suddenly exploded from high altitude without any warning.

Then the wind suddenly rose and roared.

Dark clouds surged over the mountains and drooped rapidly.

It brings moisture visible to the naked eye and increasingly spiritual energy.

Boom! ! !

Suddenly there was another muffled thunder explosion.

Heavy raindrops fell pattering down.

Its vast area not only covers all the spiritual fields, but also completely covers the surrounding large mountains.

The spiritual plants in the field desperately absorb water and spiritual energy, and the branches and leaves that were gradually drying out have become emerald green to the naked eye.

They stretch hard, like cubs waiting to be fed, absorbing more nutrients all the time.

In addition, even the vegetation in the distance began to grow wildly, and the birds, animals, ants and insects that inhabited the forest also jumped for joy and excitement as the spiritual rain fell.

Without using gold coins in the status bar to upgrade, Xiaoyunyu Technique can achieve such an effect. It is really a good practice method.

Wei Tao closed his eyes and carefully controlled the range of spiritual energy he absorbed.

At this moment, he seemed to have returned to the golden ring world again. Every inch of skin on his body, and even the blood network of acupuncture points in his body, were being infiltrated and nourished by the rain of blood.

Moreover, compared to the erosion and burning caused by rain in the Golden Ring World, the current spiritual rain is obviously much gentler and softer. It can be fully used for one's own use without any additional consumption, and the absorption efficiency is even higher than that of blood rain.

The little cloud and rain technique continued.

Wei Tao was completely immersed in it, even forgetting the passage of time.

Click!

Suddenly a soft sound came from deep in the forest.

At this moment, he gathered his thoughts and slowly turned around to look in that direction.

Quietly, a figure in black clothes and black robe came into view.

Passing through the thin rain curtain, we soon came to the spiritual field.

"Are you Teacher Lan Yue's new disciple?"

The man in black is about thirty years old, with a scar across his forehead, and his face looks a bit sinister.

"Who are you?"

Wei Tao asked.

"Didn't the teacher mention me to you?"

The man in black was silent for a moment, and an inexplicable smile appeared on his lips, "But that's right, since I have left her sect, there is no need to mention it to those who come after me."

Having said this, he raised his head and stared at the rain clouds above, "Is it actually the art of turning clouds and rain? I didn't expect Teacher Lan Yue to teach you this spiritual art.

It seems that she also attaches great importance to you, and may have regarded you as a close disciple who will inherit the mantle of the Lan family's spiritual arts. "

"Shasi, why are you wasting so much time talking to him? Don't forget the purpose of our coming here."

At this moment, a female voice suddenly sounded, and she was approaching in an instant.

She narrowed her eyes and looked at the spiritual field watered by the spiritual rain in front of her, and then turned her gaze back to Wei Tao.

"Don't think that you have some talent in spiritual planting. It's amazing if you learn the so-called cloud-turning and rain-turning technique.

To put it bluntly, he is just a spiritual planter. In my eyes, he is nothing at all. He is not even treated as well as the watchdogs at home. "

"oh?"

"What the little girl said is very interesting."

Wei Tao lowered his eyes and stared at a grass stem at his feet, "Let's not mention whether I am a spiritual planter or not. The key point is that before being a spiritual planter, I was actually a martial artist who practiced boxing."
