Entering Taoism from the womb

Two days later at noon, the treasure ship arrived in front of the gate of Yujing City and lined up to enter the city.

Nangong Yourong and Jiang Ping'an stood on the deck of the treasure ship waiting. Nangong Yourong looked up at the ancient exorcism talisman hanging on the city gate intentionally or unintentionally.

Evil spirits are extremely harmful. Once they spread in the city, the consequences will be disastrous. Therefore, there are exorcism talismans at the gates of all cities to prevent evil spirits from entering the city.

Yujing City is the heart of the Great Gan Kingdom. It is the largest city of the human race with a large population, and it is even more important to prevent evil spirits.

Nangong Yourong wanted to use the ancient exorcism talismans at the gate of Yujing City to exclude whether the evil spirits have left any means on her.

Evil spirits are too weird. Most people are lurking by evil spirits and don’t know that they have been cursed. They are often hundreds, thousands or even tens of thousands of miles away. After more than ten years, the evil spirits can still kill the victims.

After queuing for half an hour, it was finally Nangong Yourong and Jiang Ping'an's turn.

When passing the city gate, the two did not have any abnormality, and the ancient exorcism talismans did not react at all.

Nangong Yourong breathed a sigh of relief.

Jiang Pingan also breathed a sigh of relief, not because of himself, he was invulnerable to all evil, but because he was worried that the evil spirit would secretly leave a trick on Nangong Yourong.

Both of them were silent.

Nangong Yourong was very confused in her heart. Why did the evil spirit possess her? What exactly caused the evil spirit to leave her and Jiang Pingan's bodies and not hurt them?

Jiang Pingan thought that the evil spirit really didn't lie to him.

After the treasure ship passed through the city gate and flew away from the city gate for more than ten miles, Nangong Yourong said to Jiang Pingan: "After checking with the ancient exorcism talisman, we are fine."

"Relieved." Jiang Pingan said pretending to be happy.

Nangong Yourong continued: "But we have to keep our encounter with the evil spirit to ourselves and can't tell anyone."

"Why?" Jiang Pingan asked.

This request was exactly what he wanted.

Nangong Yourong turned to face the front and said slowly: "Because everyone is too afraid of evil spirits, if people know that we have encountered evil spirits and have been possessed by them, almost no one dares to approach us, and we will be monitored."

"I understand, this is a secret between us." Jiang Ping'an nodded vigorously.

Nangong Yourong couldn't help but feel a little strange in her heart, but she still turned her head and nodded to Jiang Ping'an seriously: "Not bad."

After an incense stick, the treasure ship flew over Taiwu Mansion.

Nangong Yourong took out a small bag of Yuanshi and handed it to Jiang Ping'an: "There are seven pieces of top-grade Yuanshi left in it, you take it."

"Thank you, Dean." Jiang Ping'an accepted the Yuanshi.

Nangong Yourong said again: "Go to Dongpo Terrace in two hours, I will accompany you to hone your fighting skills."

Riding on the treasure ship will not make you tired, it is much more comfortable than riding in a carriage, as if you are at home.

Jiang Ping'an bowed slightly: "I know, the student will take his leave."

Then, he turned and flew off the treasure ship and flew directly back to the residence of Jiachen in Kunyuan.

Jiang Pingan came back, and Jiang Yiyi and Chen Donglai greeted him happily.

Jiang Pingan handed the special Qiankun bag containing the corpses of the monsters hunted in the Black Mist Mountains to Jiang Yiyi, and asked Jiang Yiyi and Chen Donglai to sell it.

Not long after dark, Jiang Yiyi and Chen Donglai came back.

Jiang Yiyi excitedly handed the Yuanshi she sold to Jiang Pingan: "Cousin, a total of 12,185 low-grade Yuanshi were sold!"

It was the first time she had handled so many Yuanshi.

"It turns out that hunting monsters is so profitable." She said excitedly.

Jiang Pingan immediately poured cold water on her, so as not to hunt monsters without knowing the sky and the earth: "How can it be so easy? If the dean hadn't protected me at any time, I don't know how many times I would have died?"

"Is it so dangerous?" Jiang Yiyi said in surprise.

Jiang Pingan continued: "Moreover, I also consumed a lot of elixirs and Yuanshi. Overall, I made almost no profit."

Jiang Yiyi couldn't help but exclaimed, "Ah", and was no longer interested in hunting monsters to earn Yuanshi.

Two days later, early morning, Dongpo Terrace.

Before the sparring, Jiang Pingan reported to Nangong Yourong that he had completed the meridian refining.

Nangong Yourong nodded and asked: "There are still thirteen days before the competition. Can you enter the second level of the tempering realm - skin refining?"

"No problem at all." Jiang Pingan replied.

Nangong Yourong said: "Very good. I will find a way to find you a pill to assist in skin refining."

"Thank you, Dean." Jiang Pingan thanked.

After an hour of sparring, Nangong Yourong stopped the sparring and said to Jiang Pingan: "In the next few days, in addition to sparring here in the early morning, you should study how to temper your skin and must enter the skin refining practice as soon as possible."

"Yes, Dean." Jiang Pingan replied.

Nangong Yourong then flew away.

She flew directly to the top of the mountain and entered the main hall of the mansion to find Li Wenzheng.

"Li Siye, Jiang Ping'an has completed the refining of the meridians." Nangong Yourong said to Li Wenzheng, "With his comprehension, he can enter the skin refining in two days at most. After entering the skin refining, his defense will be greatly increased. I suggest that Taiwu Mansion provide a portion of golden jade marrow liquid for Jiang Ping'an to use, and try to improve his defense before the competition to increase his chances of winning."

Golden jade marrow liquid is a top-level skin refining auxiliary medicine with significant effects. It can not only greatly increase the speed of skin refining, but also increase defense.

Ordinary cultivators only need to use a portion of golden jade marrow liquid to complete skin refining, and also increase defense by about 30%.

Unlike Tianmai Dan, golden jade marrow liquid is not difficult to buy, but the price is also very expensive, 30,000 low-grade Yuanshi per portion.

30,000 low-grade Yuanshi is a huge sum of money for a cultivator in the Quenching Realm, and even the direct descendants of a marquis cannot afford it.

Li Wenzheng did not agree immediately, but asked: "What are the chances of Jiang Ping'an defeating Baima Temple's net victory?"

"Currently, it's about 50%." Nangong Yourong said, "He has perfected both "Xuanyin Finger" and "Shadow Cloud Miao Step", and has mastered them thoroughly and can apply them freely."

"He also understood the 'Dragon Capturing Hand' based on the 'Dragon Capturing Hand'. In addition, he also mastered a Xuan-level sword technique."

"His Xuanjie swordsmanship and the Sharp Wing Xuanjian are not only very fast, but also very powerful. They can pose some threat to Xiaocheng's six-foot-long golden body."

"His combat awareness and skills have also been honed quite well, so he shouldn't be at a disadvantage in this regard."

"If he can complete the skin refining, the chance of winning is 70%!"

Li Wenzheng said with some surprise: "It has only been more than four months since the ranking competition. I didn't expect that his strength has improved so much."

After a pause, he continued worriedly: "We have basically figured out the details of Jingsheng in White Horse Temple. Jingsheng does have the vision of the Yuanhai. His vision of the Yuanhai is a Buddhist wooden fish. That Buddhist wooden fish can emit wooden fish. The sound can not only wake people up and exorcise inner demons, but also make people fall into confusion and sinking.”

"Jingsheng is proficient in martial arts and has mastered Dragon Elephant Prajna Palm to great perfection. Dragon Elephant Prajna Palm is a Buddhist mystical palm technique. The palm power is powerful and ferocious. It has the power of ten dragons and ten elephants. A single palm strike is as powerful as an overwhelming mountain. Destroy the dead."

"In addition to being invulnerable and enlarged in size, the magical power of the Zhangliu Golden Body can also increase the strength dozens of times. Combined with the Dragon Elephant Prajna Palm, no one of the same level of monks can compete head-on. Only You Dou has some chance of winning for Jiang Ping'an."

"However, Jingsheng releases the Buddhist wooden fish vision, which can make people confused. If Jiang Ping'an gets slapped..."

Nangong Yourong's face changed slightly as he listened, and he suggested, "Let's let Jiang Ping'an wear another mysterious weapon armor."

Li Wenzheng shook his head and said: "Baima Temple has set limits for the competition. Only one mysterious weapon is allowed to be used. The use of elixirs and spiritual talismans is prohibited."

Li Wenzheng continued: "I approved the proposal to provide him with a golden chalcedony liquid. I hope that after receiving a Dragon Elephant Prajna Palm from Jing Sheng, he will not be seriously injured or even die on the spot."

But he said that after Jiang Ping'an came back from Dongpo Terrace, he rested for most of an hour and then officially started to practice skin refining.

Tempered by the real energy as strong as the ocean, the skin all over his body quickly became tough and emitted a faint golden light, like an immortal Buddha.

Jiang Pingan continued to practice until evening before he finished tempering his skin for the first time.

Opening his eyes, Jiang Pingan took out a sharp dagger from the storage ring, pulled up the sleeve of his left arm, and then slashed his left arm.

Just like cutting cowhide, the skin of the left arm was not broken, nor did it bleed, leaving only a faint white mark.

"It's not bad to achieve this effect after tempering the skin for the first time." Jiang Ping'an said to himself with some satisfaction, ""The Tao Jing" is one of the top techniques. The effect of tempering the skin is remarkable, not to mention that I am still ancient. The Holy Body is invincible at the same level as the physical body.”

Early the next morning, Dongpo Terrace.

After Jiang Ping'an saluted Nangong Yourong who was flying to Dongpo Terrace, he reported: "Master, I have entered skin refining practice."

"Very good." Nangong Yourong praised with satisfaction.

She was already used to Jiang Ping'an's understanding, so she wasn't surprised.

After a pause, she solemnly warned: "There are still twelve days before the competition. You should focus on skin refining and improve your defense capabilities as much as possible."

Then, she told Jiang Ping'an about the net victory.

Finally, she gave Jiang Ping'an a vaccination and said: "In any competition, there is a winner and a loser. It doesn't matter if we lose, but we must know how to protect ourselves. If we don't know how to protect ourselves, even if we win, the outcome may not be good. . Only by protecting yourself can you have a chance to make a comeback.”

She just wanted to tell Jiang Ping'an that she could take the initiative to admit defeat when necessary.

Baima Temple's net victory was too strong, and she couldn't see the hope that Jiang Ping'an could win.

Jiang Ping'an accepted the teaching and said, "Thank you so much, Master, for your teaching."

Although he was fully confident, it did not affect his agreement with Nangong Yourong's point of view.

Saving his life is the most important thing. If he is not completely sure, he will not agree to a fight.

At noon, Jiang Ping'an was tempering his skin in the bedroom. Suddenly, there was a knock on the door, and Chen Donglai's voice came in: "Master, Master Nangong is here to see you."

Jiang Ping'an finished his work, and while feeling slightly surprised, he quickly got out of bed and opened the door.

Walking down the small hall from the second floor, he saw Jiang Yiyi carefully entertaining Nangong Yourong.

"Greetings to the Master." Jiang Ping'an stepped forward quickly, bowed to Nangong Yourong and said, "If you have any orders, just send someone to inform me, and I will immediately..."

Nangong Yourong waved her hand to interrupt Jiang Ping'an: "It's okay."

Jiang Pingan glanced at Jiang Yiyi and Chen Donglai, and they immediately exited the hall with understanding.

Nangong Yourong said to Jiang Pingan, "Jiang Pingan, have you ever heard of Golden Chalcedony Liquid?"

"I've heard that this is a top-notch skin-refining auxiliary drug." Jiang Ping'an replied immediately.

Nangong Yourong took out two bags like water bags: "These are two portions of golden chalcedony liquid. You can take them and practice well."

Among the two portions of golden chalcedony liquid, she bought one with her own money.

She knew that Jiang Pingan had a mortal body, but she also knew that the skills Jiang Pingan practiced were very extraordinary and could not be measured by the physique of an ordinary monk. A portion of the golden chalcedony liquid might not be enough.
