Mortal Bones

After stabilizing your body shape.

Xu Taiping, who was full of confusion, used Qi, blood and true energy to repair the body, and at the same time sent a voice message to Fairy Lingyue in his heart and asked:

"Sister Lingyue, what happened just now?"

Immediately, Fairy Lingyue's solemn reply sounded in his mind -

"Taiping, when you climbed to the top just now, you must have entered a state of emptiness and darkness in your Taoist heart unintentionally."

"In this state, your mind's response to the outside world will be more than ten times that of normal circumstances."

"It can greatly increase the speed of your cultivation and understanding."

"This state is very similar to Buddhist meditation, but it is extremely difficult for Taoist monks to achieve this."

"Only when your own state of mind is in harmony with the Taoist heart, can there be a glimmer of hope that you can achieve it."

Hearing this, Xu Taiping asked curiously:

"Isn't this the effect of the meditation seal that Master Kasyapa once gave me?"

Fairy Lingyue replied:

"That's right."

After receiving the confirmation, Xu Taiping became more and more confused. While he continued to use his true energy and blood to repair his body's injuries, he continued to ask Fairy Lingyue in his heart:

"But Sister Lingyue, isn't this a good thing?"

"Why did you interrupt me just now and say I was in great danger?"

Fairy Lingyue did not answer directly, but asked:

"Taiping, you don't understand the principle of holding a jade as a crime, do you?"

When Fairy Lingyue asked this question, Xu Taiping, who was still confused, suddenly understood.

Fairy Lingyue continued to explain to him:

"The Tao Heart is empty and dark, just like your Tao Heart is bright, it is an extremely rare power of the soul."

"Although even if you have this kind of soul power, the conditions for reaching this state are extremely demanding, but as long as you awaken once, you will definitely be able to awaken a second time."

"So, now you are equivalent to understanding an original technique."

"This would be a great good thing for you."

When speaking of this, Fairy Lingyue paused for a moment, and then continued solemnly:

"But the bad thing is, you shouldn't reveal this power of emptiness in your heart at this time, in front of everyone!"

"Once the secretly watching demon cultivators find out, they will try to get rid of you at any cost."

"Moreover, some evil cultivators, especially the extremely powerful evil cultivators from outside the world, dream of having a body with the heart of Kongming Dao."

"If they find out, they will definitely use all means to kidnap you and then take your body!"

Fairy Lingyue's words were like a basin of cold water in winter, waking up Xu Taiping, who was already feeling a little groggy due to the excessive consumption of his true energy and blood.

Xu Taiping said with some fear in his heart: "Today, if Sister Lingyue hadn't reminded me in time, I might have been targeted by these monsters."

Immediately, he solemnly called Fairy Lingyue, thanked her, and asked:

"Sister Lingyue, I should have made some noise just now. Has anyone noticed it yet?"

Soon, Fairy Lingyue’s voice sounded in his mind——

"Don't worry. Although you made some noise, I used the power of my soul to suppress it."

"Those who are watching in secret, even if they notice something abnormal, I will be the first to suspect."

When Xu Taiping heard this, he felt relieved.

But when he thought that Sister Lingyue might be targeted, he suddenly felt very guilty and said: "Sister Lingyue, I have caused you trouble again this time."

Fairy Lingyue smiled and said:

"In general, your surprise this time outweighs the trouble. After I come down from the Ten Thousand Evils Peak, I will tell you more about the benefits of this empty mind."

Xu Taiping responded in his heart, then slowly opened his eyes and raised his head.

When he was communicating with Fairy Lingyue just now, because he was worried about being discovered, he kept pretending to heal his injuries with all his strength.

But in fact, he was indeed trying his best to heal his injuries.

In the moment of communicating with Fairy Lingyue, most of the skin and flesh that had been removed from his arms had recovered.

The rest of the wounds were also somewhat healed.

"Snapped!"

At this time, he suddenly reached out and patted himself lightly on the shoulder.

In an instant, the blood stains on his body were dispersed by his true energy.

at the same time.

An old monk walked out of the golden palace on the top of the peak, cupped his hands to Xu Taiping from a distance and said:

"Jiufu Guest Minister, Chu Qiuya, congratulates fellow Taoist Ping'an on reaching the summit of Wanxie Peak."

When Xu Taiping heard this, he immediately cupped his hands at the old monk and said:

"Junior Chu Pingan has met Mr. Chu."

Chu Qiuya put his hands behind his back and shook his head with a smile and said:

"Fellow Taoist Ping An, please come over and take a drink of the water in this star gathering disk."

As he said that, Chu Qiuya looked at the door of the hall, where a bronze turtle statue was holding up the star gathering disk, and at the same time stretched out his hand to make a gesture of invitation.

Although before climbing the peak, Fairy Lingyue mentioned to him that at the entrance of the Golden Palace on the top of the peak, there was a treasure called the Star Gathering Plate. The spring water in it was transformed by the essence of the Star Gathering Plate to attract the stars and the moon, so it was extremely precious.

But at that time, neither Xu Taiping himself nor Fairy Lingyue thought too deeply about what would happen after reaching the summit.

Therefore, Xu Taiping only had a partial understanding of this gathering star chart.

At this moment, because Chu Qiuya was present, Xu Taiping could not communicate with Fairy Lingyue, so he could only go forward and ask the old man for advice.

"Mr. Chu, please forgive me for being presumptuous, but what is the function of the spiritual spring in this gathering star disk?"

Chu Laodao introduced Xu Taiping with a smile:

"Fellow Taoist Taiping, the Star Gathering Plate is one of the few magic weapons left by the Great Emperor in the world. In addition to having the power to gather stars and turn them into spiritual springs, the Plate also contains several swords passed down by the Great Emperor. meaning."

"After drinking the spiritual spring, if you have a connection with the sword intention passed down by the Great Emperor, you will be able to inherit this sword intention."

Xu Taiping nodded after hearing this.

Although the old man's words were very clear, for the sake of caution, he finally confirmed to the old man:

"Mr. Chu, there are no other taboos on drinking this spiritual spring, right?"

His previous trip to Jinting Mansion made him unable to help but be wary of everything he saw.

Seeing that Xu Taiping asked so seriously, Chu Qiuya did not dare to neglect and immediately started thinking seriously.

After a long time, he finally spoke:

"I have been guarding the mountain for so many years, and I have given away more than ten copies of the spiritual spring. I have never found any monks to feel sick after drinking the spiritual spring."

However, when he said this, he suddenly raised his eyebrows, then looked at Xu Taiping and continued:

"If there is any taboo, it should be after drinking this spiritual spring. If you really get the inheritance of Emperor Zhenwu's sword intention, I am afraid that the sword skills you have cultivated will be erased by the emperor's sword intention."

Having said this, Chu Qiuya paused for a moment, then smiled and said:

"But for sword cultivators in the world, there is no swordsmanship that cannot be given up in the face of Emperor Zhenwu's inheritance of sword intent."

As he said that, Chu Qiuya handed a jade ladle for scooping water towards Xu Taiping and said with a smile on his face:

"Fellow Taoist Ping An, you can only take one scoop."
