Chapter 17: True Qi Medicine, Lame Muramasa

In the dark corners of the mountains, the miasma is like clouds, and it is dark all year round without sunlight.

There is a villa in the place covered by miasma, with white walls, black tiles, tall buildings and red doors.

In the center is a red-painted stilt house, which is an attic supported by wooden piles. It is empty underneath, like a vermilion pagoda.

In the hall on the first floor, the red painted windows and doors are open.

There were flickering green flames inside and the air was filled with the smell of blood. The green light mixed with the smell of blood made it like purgatory on earth.

The hall is spacious, with eighteen mahogany pillars supporting the dome.

Sitting in the main seat was an old man in a black robe. His hair was green flames and his skin was blood red. In addition to his normal eyes, he had a dark green magic eye between his eyebrows and on his chin.

This is the red-faced Yaksha from Yaksha Manor, with the dog-headed Taoist priest and Liu Qing standing on his side.

There was also a green-eyed young man and a white-haired old man around.

This village gathers five of the nine temples. It is the most elite and strongest force among the middle and lower classes of Quhuang, and controls a village with a population of more than 300,000.

At this moment, everyone was looking intently at the center of the hall.

There were seven or eight boys tied up in the middle of the hall, with their eyes closed, sleeping peacefully.

Behind the boy are five gray-brown pottery basins, in which grow knotweed, a plant similar to green bamboo.

"Do it!" the red-faced Yaksha gave the order.

Wow! !

Liu Qing had a bulging lump of flesh on his back, his bright red bat-like wings had sharp spikes on the tips, fangs protruded from his lips, and his eyes turned into vertical pupils.

The whole person began to transform into a yaksha.

Wow! !

Liu Qing flew to the boy's side, dug his five sharp claws into the boy's head, and absorbed his brain.

Then the body was opened and the heart was removed. The heart was crushed into mud and placed on the soil with grass.

The heart fragments slowly seeped into the soil and eventually turned into dust.

Click, click, click...the grass has grown another section.

Then they followed the same method and killed the boys one by one, and each of the grasses grew taller.

“The human heart grass is almost ready. Wait until it’s ten years old, then send it to Zhang Zheng.” The red-faced yaksha’s voice was hoarse, and he looked calm in the face of the tragic scene before him.

"Tsk tsk, boy's blood is indeed very nourishing. No wonder Yinguan values ​​​​the human heart grass so much." The strange phenomenon on Liu Qing's body disappeared and he returned to his normal appearance.

"This item is very important to Zhang Zheng. Dan Feng is not very cooperative. We should take this opportunity to win Zhang Zheng's favor. Dan Feng is old and won't live long." The Red-faced Yaksha changed the subject and said, "Of course, don't forget about the Barbarian Buddha and the female cultivator, Qingyang!!"

"I'm here!!" Qingyang bowed in the Huaigong Temple. Ever since the Red-faced Yaksha recruited him, Qingyang joined the team without hesitation. With the help of Yaksha Manor, he also successfully received the inheritance left by his master.

"Release the Sophora japonica ghost to patrol, and remember to report any abnormalities."

"Yes!"

The people in Huaigong Temple are good at refining locust wood ghosts. The locust wood ghosts are elusive and good at gathering intelligence. This is why Yasha Manor accepted him.

"Master, should we send someone to contact Xu Yang from Gaoshan Yizhuang, Xuan Ying from Yaokefang, and Fang Tong from Qushan?"

The red-faced Yaksha shook his head, with green fire flickering on his head, and said, "You can try, but it's not necessary. Leave it alone. The matter of the Ninth Rank is more important."

Every once in a while, the imperial court and the Taoist palace would send people down to determine the merits. If the power of Yaksha was greater than that of Huangya Temple and the total amount of merits was greater than theirs, Xuanfeng would most likely be brought down.

…………

Yizhuang.

Ghosts patrol and zombies refine their bodies.

The thick yin energy covered the charity cemetery with a layer of hazy black fog. The walls were black and the tiles were white. Coffins were displayed. The atmosphere was gloomy and terrifying, and the candlelight seemed to be glowing green.

In the ancestral hall, the incense was burning brightly. The little ghost shrank back into the black altar, leaving only its pitch-black melon-shaped hat exposed, and it was snoring.

Xu Yang sat cross-legged in front of the hall, breathing in the essence of heaven and earth.

The temperature was getting colder and colder, and the candlelight was emitting a faint green light under the influence of the huge yin energy.

Xu Yang didn't move, his body became colder and colder, like a dead body.

Looking inward at the Dantian, the true Qi is dense and curling like smoke and mist.

The true Qi slowly rises like a cloud, and the heat from the boiling water rises.

After an unknown amount of time, the Zhenqi Star Cluster rose as a whole, flowing like a river.

boom! !

I don’t know what mysterious barrier I broke through, but the upward trend of my true Qi couldn’t be controlled at all.

It soars into the sky. The true qi is steaming, and the river cart begins to move.

Xu Yang struck while the iron was hot and began to use his mind to control the circulation of true Qi to break through the barrier.

The Qi Sensing Period is the period of accumulating true Qi. When the true Qi accumulates to a certain level, it can begin to circulate, just like life, which keeps circulating and moving.

The river cart passes through the upper Niwan, down the Queqiao, across the Chonglou, to the middle Dantian, and then returns to the lower Dantian along the meridians, completing a small circle. The true Qi star cluster that had been stagnant for a long time seemed to have grown a lot larger.

Let go of the mind and scan the area ten feet around you. Ants crawling, breeze blowing, Yin energy circulating, everything is clear.

After a long time, Xu Yang woke up, and his whole body seemed to have undergone a miraculous change. His body was calm and his mind was clear.

"The True Qi State is accomplished!!" Xu Yang exhaled a breath of turbid air, but he was not too excited in his heart. After all, it was a natural thing.

Qigong Master: Xu Yang
Realm: True Qi

Supernatural powers: Bardo Dharmakaya.

Spell: Yin-Yang Eyes. Heche Palace Health Preservation Secret Scroll: Sensing Qi and True Qi (Entry 220/1000)

The True Qi state is just the beginning. After the True Qi has completed the small circulation, the efficiency of future practice will be higher. The True Qi capacity when entering the True Qi period is about three times that of the Sense Qi period.

After the birth of divine consciousness, the number of zombies that can be controlled will be greater. If there were fifteen zombies before, now the upper limit of controllable zombies is thirty, which is far beyond the ordinary Taoist priests who can drive corpses with true qi.

The True Qi state is divided into two stages: the first is the small circulation, also known as small medicine and small success; the second is the big circulation that opens the Ren and Du meridians, also known as big medicine and big success.

The Qi Sensing Stage is only for beginners, and the subsequent stages require careful practice.

Fortunately, he has the Warring States Atlas, so he can slowly hone his skills.

Xu Yang stood up.

Wow! !

He took one step and covered a distance of five or six feet, then turned into a shadow and jumped out of the door.

On the dark roof, the Taoist was covered in silvery moonlight, his robe fluttering in the strong wind.

"Congratulations, master. Congratulations, master!" The two ghosts transformed into swirling black wind.

The magical skill has been accomplished to a small extent, and I feel refreshed.

Jingle Bell! !

The magic bell rang, and the clear sound echoed.

Ten zombies stood up and gathered together.

Within a radius of 100 meters, zombies can be controlled easily and it is no longer as difficult as in the Qi Sense Stage.

The high-speed operation of the true Qi will increase the speed of controlling the formation and drawing talismans, greatly increasing the efficiency.

Only when you reach this realm can you be truly called one of the Taoist priests of the Nine Temples.

The east was already bright, the dawn was just breaking, a faint golden glow appeared on the horizon, and the golden light was scattered like fine threads.
After Xu Yang absorbed a wisp of purple air, he jumped off the roof.

dong dong dong! !

At this time, someone knocked on the door.

"Little ghost, go and take a look!!!"

After a while, the little ghost came over to report.

"It's two village chiefs. They came here with an unknown body."

Outside the gate, an old man and a middle-aged man were waiting anxiously.

Seeing Xu Yang coming, the two of them greeted him solemnly.

"Greetings, Taoist Priest!"

"Why did you two come here in person?" Xu Yang asked curiously.

"I am here to report something."

"What's going on? Where did the demon appear?"

The fellow villager was hesitating, "Not really, it's a strange thing; I don't know whether I should report it or not."

"But it doesn't matter."

"There is a village chief in Dongling Village named Chen San. His lame legs have suddenly become better recently. His illness that had plagued him for decades has suddenly improved. I found it strange, so I came here to report."

"All right?"

"Yes, there is one more strange thing."
