Xuanxiong withdrew his gaze, but there was undisguised disappointment and helplessness in his eyes.
"However, if this son is also traveling together, maybe our Da Ri Tathagata Sect has been seeking for a long time, and this time we really hope to get it."
"I'm afraid that his cultivation level is not enough." Xuanfeng is not as optimistic as Xuanxiong, "Being a Buddha does not mean that he is really good at cultivation."
"There is no shortage of geniuses in the Taiyi Valley." Xuanxiong said indifferently, "Have you forgotten the words that are widely circulated in the cultivation world today? It's not that geniuses don't enter Taiyi, and they don't know geniuses without seeing Taiyi. Among the nine apprentices in Taiyi Valley, which one is not a genius? "
"Even if he is a genius, there is a difference between a genius and a genius." Xuanfeng shook his head and said, "Let's take a step back and say that he is almost comparable to an evildoer in terms of cultivation, so he still needs three months to cultivate to the Divine Sea Realm." Right? So in the next two months, do you think he can really master a martial skill completely?"
"If he doesn't have a suitable martial skill, even if he enters the Illusion Divine Sea, he can only circle around at most."
Hearing this, Xuanxiong didn't speak again.
Xuan Bei could only put his palms together, and said softly: "Let's go with fate. Whether this child has entered the Divine Sea Realm is still unknown."
Just like the final words of a coffin, after Xuan Bei finished saying this, the three of them stopped talking about this topic and started talking about other things.
Not long after, the spirit boat arrived at Taiyi Valley.
Standing on the deck of the spirit boat, Xuan Bei and the other three could see the three people standing outside the Taiyi Valley.
The person in the center is Huang Zi, and the man and woman behind him are naturally Fang Qianwen and Su Anran.
"It seems that the other party's cultivation has reached the Divine Sea Realm." Xuan Bei chuckled, "It really is 'it's not a genius who can't enter the Taiyi'."
"In three months, from Qi Gathering to Shenhai is just the minimum standard of a genius." Xuanfeng shook his head slightly, still holding a different view, "But the fourth level of Shenhai is not as easy to cultivate as compared to the Qi Gathering state. Even if it takes two and a half months for the string to reach the semicircle at the fastest, and the longer it takes, the longer it will take. Even if he has entered the sea of divines, he is just a new string now. ?”
"The time is still too short. If we can advance one year... no, even eight months, maybe..."
Xuanfeng shook his head and remained silent.
"Follow the fate, follow the fate." Xuan Bei still said with a smile, "It's fine for the three of us to go down, let the three of them have more time to practice."
Regarding Xuan Bei's decision, Xuan Feng and Xuan Xiong naturally had no opinion.
Naturally, there are more than the three of them in this spirit boat, and they are also accompanied by their own disciples who are qualified to enter the Illusory Divine Sea and the more promising senior disciples.
Now these disciples are all retreating and sprinting in the room of the spirit boat, making final preparations.
Just to say hello to Tai Yigu, and pick someone up to go to the Illusion Divine Sea by the way, naturally there is no need to interrupt the cultivation of these disciples.
The three masters of the Xuan family quickly got off the spirit boat and walked towards Huang Zi.
However, Huang Zi put on a high profile, and had no intention of going forward to greet him, but waited for the three monks to come by themselves.
Regarding Huang Zi's attitude, Master Xuan Bei and the others obviously had expected it, so they were not annoyed. After welcoming him with a smile, they were ready to say hello.
But just as he opened his mouth, before he could utter a word, the three old monks were already in a daze, staring straight at Huang Zi's back.
Xuanfeng even rubbed his eyes in a very disfigured manner, with an expression on his face as if he had seen a ghost.
Even Master Xuan Bei, who was always smiling and talking about Sui Yuan, had the same expression as Xuan Feng at the moment.
"It's not that geniuses don't get into Taiyi." Xuanxiong murmured in a low voice, "I don't see Taiyi... I don't know geniuses."
Chapter 021
Su Anran stood behind Huang Zi, wearing a black double-breasted robe, and carrying a giant epee bound by a white spirit belt on his back.
At this time, his eyes are bright, his breath is restrained, and even the fluctuation of his mental power is very slight, almost non-existent.
This is a typical sign of the second heaven of Shenhai.
The monks who have just entered the Divine Sea Realm have very active mental fluctuations and cannot restrain themselves at all.
Only cultivators who have reached the second level of the Divine Sea, that is, the semi-circle of the Divine Sea, can control their own spiritual consciousness to restrain their spiritual consciousness and mental power fluctuations.
For cultivators who have reached the Second Heaven of the Divine Sea within five months, whether it is Master Xuanfeng, Master Xuanbei, or Master Xuanxiong, at most they are slightly surprised, and they will definitely not reach the state of being stunned.After all, before they came to Taiyi Valley, they had already guessed that Su Anran's ability to cultivate to the second level of Shenhai within five months at most proved that he was a monster in terms of cultivation talent.
But when they saw that Su Anran was carrying such an exaggerated epee on his back, and that he was not Confucian or Taoist, Master Xuanbei and the other three monks couldn't believe it. up.
In five months, he not only cultivated to the second level of Shenhai, but also mastered at least a preliminary martial skill. What kind of monster is this?
And when he thought of the other disciples of Taiyigu who were being scourges outside, Master Xuan Bei felt that the cultivation base of these people was really that of a dog.
It's not that geniuses don't enter Taiyi.
If you don't see Taiyi, you don't know genius.
These words were originally just a joke in the cultivating world, but they never thought that there would be a day when the word would become a prophecy.
Master Xuan Bei and the three looked at each other for a while, and then stepped forward.
"Master Huang..." Xuan Bei clasped his hands together, and was about to say an opening remark.
But Huang Zi directly reached out to stop the other party: "There is no need for polite words, anyway, I don't care about anything else, now I hand over my apprentice to you, if anything happens to him, I will first find you Da Ri Tathagata Sect Trouble."
Master Xuanbei smiled wryly, and said with some helplessness: "If I lose someone else's child, I dare not lose your old Huang's child."
Huang Zi smacked his lips, always thinking that this was the reason, but why did it sound weird.
But Su Anran sounds different. It sounds like Da Ri Tathagata Sect often loses other people's children?
Seemingly seeing Su Anran's doubts, Fang Qianwen explained to Su Anran through voice transmission with her spiritual sense: "It's not that they really lose other people's children, but they often use the ingenuity of Zen to dispel children from other sects. The disciples all talked about switching to the sect of the Great Sun Tathagata Sect...Little brother, you must be careful of the Wenchanyuan during your trip, because the Zhike monks trained there are dedicated to this kind of thing."
Su Anran was surprised.
This is the Xianxia version of the MLM group, right?
Huang Zi ignored Master Xuan Bei and the others, and turned to Su Anran and said, "This is for you. If you encounter troubles that cannot be solved, just crush it, and then find a place to hide and wait for someone to rescue you." you also have."
Seeing that Huang Zi's face turned serious and solemn, Su Anran also became more attentive.
"No matter what your reasons are, don't enter the depths of the sea of illusion." Huang Zi patted Su Anran on the shoulder.
Su Anran's heart skipped a beat, resisting the urge to turn her head, she just nodded seriously.
Seeing Su Anran's solemn expression, Huang Zi couldn't help but chuckled: "Don't be nervous, relax. This is your first experience, watch more, listen more, think more, if you have any questions, you can ask me when you come back... ...go ahead."
"Okay." Su Anran nodded.
Soon, Su Anran returned to the spirit boat under the guidance of Master Xuan Bei.
Immediately afterwards, the spirit boat lifted into the sky again and headed northwest.
Huang Zi watched the spirit boat gradually turn into a small black spot in the sky, and couldn't help but sighed softly.
"Master, why don't you let me follow?"
"Inappropriate." Huang Zi shook his head.
But Huang Zi didn't say why it was inappropriate.
Fang Qianwen originally wanted to ask, but seeing that Huang Zi didn't seem to intend to speak, she didn't continue to speak after thinking about it.
……
This is the first time Su Anran has seen something like a spirit boat - he didn't think too much about it when he read novels before, and after coming to this world, he didn't have the chance to understand these things that are considered common sense, until this morning. Informed by Huang Zi, he knew the existence of the spirit boat.
Taiyigu does not have such a tall thing as a spirit boat.
Because Huang Zi thinks that there are only a few people living at home in Taiyigu, and those who are more extroverted make trouble outside every day, so buying a spirit boat is meaningless.This has also led to the fact that Taiyigu's disciples usually travel by flying the sword to the sky, or go to the nearby sect to borrow a teleportation array-yes, Taiyigu is reluctant to even build a teleportation array. According to Fang Qianwen, all the money was taken What kind of game development did Huang Zi use it for?
It's still a game for self-entertainment, other monks in the monastic world don't understand how to play it, and no one in Taiyi Valley knows how to play it except Huang Zi.
As for some dangerous places that cannot be reached by the teleportation array, it is natural to find a way to get on the spirit boats of those big sects and take a free ride.
In this regard, Su Anran is quite convinced: Under Huang Zi's management, Tai Yigu has not closed down yet, and Huang Zi really plays tricks very well.
This spirit boat of the Great Sun Tathagata Sect is somewhat different from Su Anran's imagination.
Since this is not a ship used for sea voyages, no double bottom and watertight bulkheads are reserved for construction.Although the lower deck still has cabins that separate different spaces and purposes, the layout inside obviously adopts some kind of special space device. Almost every room has a space of no less than 40 square meters—you know, the entire spirit boat The width of the boat is only 60 meters, and the length is only [-] meters. No matter how you look at it, it is obviously impossible to have as many as twenty rooms.
However, the cabin space on the lower deck is obviously not the best.
Right behind the deck hall are ten sets of independent courtyards.
Each set of independent courtyards seems to only occupy about ten square meters, but when you actually enter it, you will find that each of these courtyards is at least [-] square meters, and the space is simply not comparable to the cabins on the lower deck.
At this time, there were only eight people in this spirit boat, including the three masters of Xuanzi generation and Su Anran, so Su Anran was naturally assigned to an independent courtyard.
Next door to him was the little monk Miaoyan whom he had met once when he first came to this world.
In addition to the disciple of the Miaozi generation, the little monk Miaoyan, another disciple of the Miaozi generation is the disciple of Master Xuanxiong, the deacon of the Discipline Academy, Miaocheng.
The other two disciples of the Great Sun Tathagata Sect who can also live in the independent courtyard are disciples of the deep generation, Shenkong and Shenyue.
Among them, Shenyue is the little nun of Ciduzhai.
The four of them were practicing in seclusion at this time, making final preparations for entering the Illusion Divine Sea, so they did not come out to greet Su Anran.
However, Su Anran didn't care about these things, so after greeting three masters including Xuan Bei, Xuan Feng, and Xuan Xiong, he returned to his courtyard, and he was also ready to practice hard to stabilize his realm thoroughly. .
It was only a month ago that he got the follow-up exercises about the Divine Sea Realm in "Record of Forging the Gods" from Huang Zi.
In just one month, no matter how monstrous and talented Su Anran is, he can't directly cultivate to the second level of Shenhai.
So two days ago, he used the strengthening system to directly forcibly raise his cultivation level to the second level of the Divine Sea, so as to expand his Divine Sea and enhance his spiritual consciousness.
At this time, Su Anran's divine sea is no longer as gray as before, just like a chaotic world.
The clarity here is significantly higher, and the islands floating on the Sea of Consciousness are also significantly larger.But the most obvious change is that the blue crescent in the sky has become a half moon, surrounded by thousands of stars.
It's just that apart from the bright and bright 360 star lights at the beginning, the 720 new star lights that appeared later were slightly dim.
What Su Anran has to do at this time is to replace all the true qi in these 720 starlights with true energy and true qi.
And this is destined to be a long process.
But this process is also a good training opportunity for Su Anran.
Different from Qi Gathering Realm, which is practiced to build the foundation of the body, the condensed true energy of practice can directly hit the acupoints.
The core of cultivation in the Divine Sea Realm, just as the name of the realm says, is mainly to cultivate divine consciousness.
Therefore, in order to correspond to the stars in the sky, every replacement and infusion of true qi needs to consume spiritual consciousness to maintain the connection, so that the true qi condensed in the body can be smoothly transferred to the stars in the sea of consciousness and sky.During this process, the cultivator's true energy will be improved, and at the same time, the spiritual consciousness will be continuously strengthened due to frequent consumption, maintenance, and condensation, and eventually become stronger.
After all, whether the spiritual consciousness is strong or not is far more important than the amount of true energy.
Like the "Shajian Jue" practiced by Su Anran, the level of the sword art is directly linked to the spiritual consciousness.
If Su Anran didn't have a strong enough spiritual consciousness, then the amount of evil sword energy he could activate would be very small.However, the amount of evil sword energy is small, so the lethality of this martial skill is naturally insufficient, and it is naturally impossible to obtain benefits from advanced practitioners.
This is a cycle that almost all monks cannot avoid.
Especially for the two factions of Confucianism and Taoism, many of their attack methods must be used in conjunction with divine consciousness.Therefore, whether the spiritual consciousness is strong or not is a very crucial and direct factor for judging the strength of these two factions.
So after boarding the spirit boat, Su Anran naturally began to enter the state of cultivation.
He was so far behind others that he naturally had to redouble his efforts.
……
Master Xuanfeng was in charge of scheduling the spiritual power of the entire spirit boat, so as soon as Su Anran entered the state of cultivation, he immediately sensed the consumption of spiritual power.
"I'm practicing."
"Sure enough." Master Xuanxiong sighed softly, "It's not without reason that Taiyigu's disciples will be called monsters by the outside world. This kid hardly wastes any time in his cultivation, even if he saw Ling Zhou for the first time. It is a magic weapon, and it can't arouse his interest at all."
"A person who is so focused is truly terrifying." Xuan Bei shook his head, "In less than ten years, the word Taiyigu will once again break into the vision of many forces in the cultivation world... But considering Taiyigu It's been quiet for 50 years, and I'm absolutely not surprised."
"Tell me, will there be a day when all the top ten people in the Tianbang list announced by Wanshilou will be from Taiyigu?"
"No." Master Xuanbei shook his head and denied Master Xuanxiong's statement, "Huang Zi is not such a stupid person, and he would not become an imaginary enemy of the entire monastic community just because of this face. But if nothing unexpected happens, at least there will be Four to five places are occupied."
"You guys, does anyone see the origin of the epee behind Su's benefactor?"
"Under the restraint of the spirit sealing belt, there is no trace of aura leaking out, so it is impossible to see it." Master Xuan Bei shook his head.
"Then, at least one thing can be confirmed now, that is, Su benefactor must be a cultivator of the second level of Shenhai who has mastered a martial skill, right?"
Hearing Xuan Feng's words, both Xuan Bei and Xuan Xiong nodded silently.
Especially Xuan Bei, he knew what his junior brother meant by saying this.
But after a moment of silence, he finally said: "I will let Miaoyan talk to him first, and ask him for help if possible. But even if he is the second heaven of Shenhai, it is still necessary to enter the depths." It's a bit dangerous, if something happens to him, I'm afraid..."
"I'll let Miaocheng accompany me to ensure their safety." Xuanxiong said, "If it's really unavoidable, then take him away quickly, let's... think of a way to plan again, anyway, we don't have to worry about this matter." After waiting for so many years, it will not be a problem to wait another two or 30 years."
"Okay." Xuan Bei pondered for a moment, then nodded, "That's the decision."
Chapter 022
In Su Anran's perception, about a day later, there was a knock on his courtyard door.
