Fortune Teller

After a while, Gu Xiuyun followed Chang Bo back to the main courtyard.

This place is quite remote, and it is surrounded by bamboo forests. If others don't look carefully, they would never think that there is a courtyard hidden in the bamboo forest.

"It's such a quiet place." Gu Xiuyun praised.

"The old servant built a special courtyard in the bamboo forest according to the young master's instructions. The time was short and the courtyard is a bit crude. I hope the young master will not blame you." Chang Bo bowed.

"It's too late for me to be happy, so how can I blame you?" Gu Xiuyun smiled casually. He knew nothing about the Gu family. If they lived too close, it would be easy to expose their flaws, so he specially asked Chang Bo to choose a remote place. .

Firstly, it is convenient for him to practice, and secondly, it can also avoid people from various clans of the Gu family.

Delicious food and delicacies had been prepared in the wing. After Gu Xiuyun had a full meal, he drank the medicinal soup in front of him in one gulp.

"As expected of the Gu family, there is an endless supply of elixirs every day. The accumulated potency of these elixirs alone is worth half of the demon blood!" Gu Xiuyun sighed in his heart after carefully sensing the movement in his spine.

Not long before he was reincarnated, the original owner of the physical body had just tried to activate the spiritual veins. Although the breakthrough failed, a lot of medicinal power had been accumulated in the body. Coupled with the supply of spiritual medicine for nearly a month, there were faint signs of the condensation of spiritual veins in the spine. .

Of course, if you really want to condense false spiritual veins, you need at least five parts of the medicinal power of demon blood. After all, the power of elixirs is loose, and if you want to condense real spiritual veins, you need far more medicinal power than demon blood.

Using elixir to enlighten the spiritual veins is safer and can be tried again and again, but the cost is much higher.

Although the Gu family is powerful, it can only supply direct lineage members under the age of twenty. Even Gu Xiudan and others are not qualified to take it anymore.

"This medicinal power cannot be wasted. It is better to refine it into true energy!"

Gu Xiuyun sat cross-legged, his true energy circulating endlessly in his meridians, slowly refining the medicinal power in his flesh and blood, and enhancing his own power.

If others saw it, they would definitely scold him for squandering natural resources. The elixir can enhance his skill, but the true energy cannot be converted into spiritual power. In doing so, he is undoubtedly sacrificing the basics and chasing the weak.

But Gu Xiuyun had other plans in mind.

Although using elixirs to condense spiritual veins is less dangerous, it takes a long time. You have to take it for at least three years before you can try to enlighten the spiritual veins.

If the initiation fails, you have to endure it for another three years.

But he only has two years left to live, so how can he have time to endure it slowly?

The only way is to use demon blood to enlighten the spiritual veins.

…

Half a day later, Chang Bo's voice came into the side room, "Sir, the martial arts masters you asked your wife to help search for a few days ago have sent two more martial arts masters. Do you want to see them?"

"Let them come in!" Gu Xiuyun opened his eyes, his eyes shining brightly.

After half a day of practice, his skill has increased. With the spiritual medicine as the foundation, the potential of this physical body is much greater than that of the previous life, and the energy that his Dantian can bear is at least twice as much.

"Perhaps it's because I have experienced spiritual enlightenment twice. Although I failed to pass the test, my physical body has also strengthened a lot!" Gu Xiuyun secretly said to himself.

Bang!

The wooden door opened and two old-looking warriors walked in.

"I've met Young Master Yun."

"Since you agreed to come here, you should know what I'm going to do, right?" Gu Xiuyun looked at the two old men, "I want to take your skills and temper your body. Once this method is used, at least the skills in your body will be removed. Half, do you really want to?"

"My wife has given me a thousand taels of gold, and told us both that no matter what the young master orders, we must obey him," the two said in unison, "even if it means death, we must not resist."

"Okay." Gu Xiuyun nodded slightly.

These two people looked to be at least eighty years old, and their skills had reached the pinnacle after a lifetime of hard training. However, they were unable to go any further due to the limitations of their Dantian.

Now that they are older and their muscles and bones are getting weaker and weaker, even if they have the skills, they cannot hunt wild beasts outside the city, so they agreed to Mrs. Yu's request without hesitation.

Exchanging a dying body for a thousand taels of gold is definitely a good deal.

"You go first," Gu Xiuyun pointed to one of the old men, "slowly inject your true energy into my body. Remember, it must be done with gentleness."

"The villain understands."

The old man stepped forward and touched Gu Xiuyun's palms, and the mellow true energy poured into his veins like flowing water.

"The secret method of transforming energy!"

Gu Xiuyun immediately activated the secret technique of the Destiny Clan, and the flowing Qi seemed to have been refined and transformed into pure Qi. It walked around in his body and returned to the old man's body again.

The old man was startled. Before he could ask, Gu Xiuyun spoke again: "Don't panic, pour all the energy in your body into me."

"Yes, sir."

The old man calmed down and kept channeling the true energy in his Dantian. Finally, all the old man's own true energy was exhausted, leaving only half of the pure pure energy remaining in his body after being refined.

At this moment, a strong suction force came, and the pure Qi was like a hundred rivers flowing back, blending into Gu Xiuyun's dantian and disappearing.

"call!"

The two of them separated their palms, and Gu Xiuyun stood up. The zhenqi in his body was as powerful as a wave, almost no weaker than when he was at his peak in his previous life!

To be able to make such great progress, it can only be said that the true energy in the old man's body is so majestic that even Gu Yuncong is far behind. The spiritual energy in this world is already abundant, plus there are hordes of monsters, elixirs everywhere, and warriors. The practice is also much easier.

The old man has practiced hard all his life, and his skills for more than eighty years are almost as good as those of two Gu Yuncongs.

Gu Xiuyun felt the majestic Qi in his body and was full of energy, but the old man looked pale and closed his eyes to adjust his breathing.

This act not only depleted the true energy in his body, but also severely damaged his Dantian due to the accumulation of outsiders' true energy. Even if he practiced hard day and night, his power would probably only be restored to half of its previous state.

"Thank you, old sir." Gu Xiuyun bowed.

"Young master, you don't have to be polite. I also got a thousand taels of gold, so I won't suffer any loss." The old man replied.

Gu Xiuyun nodded slightly. One thousand taels of gold was enough to buy a small courtyard. For the common people in Youning City, it was indeed a huge fortune.

After a while, Gu Xiuyun and another old man touched each other's palms and began the second round of teaching...

Unconsciously, three hours had passed, and the two old men walked out of the wing, their faces a little pale.

"Unexpectedly, after absorbing the power of two people, my Dantian has reached its peak." Gu Xiuyun frowned.

It's not that his Dantian is not strong enough, it's that the two old men's true energy is too powerful. Now the true energy in his body has almost condensed into mist, and a random slap of his palm can shatter a large green bamboo.

"Now that my skill has reached its peak, I should also consider enlightening my spiritual veins. However, there are three, six or nine levels of spiritual veins. Which one should I choose?" Gu Xiuyun weighed in his mind.

After enlightening the spiritual veins in his previous life, he keenly discovered that the purer the spiritual veins, the greater the power, so he respected the single-color veins.

Now that he has read through the classics of the Alchemy Pagoda, he realizes that there are five levels and four colors of spiritual veins in the world.

Among them, the first and second grades are both monochromatic veins.

The first-class spiritual vein is the purple energy spiritual vein.

Just take that wisp of the purple energy of the rising sun as the foundation of the spiritual vein. This vein has the strongest power and the highest potential. However, the rising sun only lasts for half an hour every day, and there is no time to enlighten the spiritual vein. Only those with innate spiritual veins can Do it.

The second level is the Sunlight Spiritual Vein and the Caixia Spiritual Vein. The two are equally good. The Sunray Spiritual Vein has blazing spiritual power. With this, you can practice fire-attribute skills and your power will be doubled.

The Caixia Spiritual Vein blends the essence of the sun and the moon, making it the most neutral and mellow. No matter what kind of technique it is, there will be no conflict.

The third level is the two-color veins and the moonlight spiritual veins.

The spiritual power of the two-color pulse is impure, which has a great influence on the practice, and the grade is naturally not high.

Although the Yuehua spiritual vein is a single-color vein, the power of the Yuehua spiritual vein is inherently weaker, and is inherently inferior to the Sunlight spiritual power. In a battle of the same level, the person with the Yuehua spiritual vein is often defeated.

As for the fourth and fifth grades, they are the three-color pulses and the four-color pulses. In the Dan Sutra Pagoda, this pulse condition is also called a waste pulse.

Now that Gu Xiuyun knows the differences between the fifth-grade and four-color veins, he will naturally not repeat the mistakes of his previous life. For him, the best choice is the Sunlight Spiritual Vein.
