Beiyin Great Sage

Chapter 174 Black Iron

One month later.

Xiaolang Island.

Zhou Jia, wearing a purple robe, walked along the path dotted with flowers.

He has a strong and burly figure. Although his face is not fleshy, it is slightly dull. Sometimes he opens his eyes, which gives people a fierce feeling.

Even if there is no malice, it still makes people afraid to look directly.

But at this time he.

But it was as if he had gone through some kind of baptism, his appearance was the same, and the subtle changes in his facial expressions were gone, giving him a sense of tranquility.

Like a warm spring breeze, full of tranquility and peace.

Move gently and relax.

When he arrived at the entrance of the small courtyard, he hesitated for a moment before calling softly inside:

"Is Senior Brother Liu here?"

"Here!" A series of chaotic sounds immediately sounded in the house, and as the door opened, Liu, who was slightly disheveled, walked out.

Behind him, a somewhat panicked figure seemed to flash past.

"Master Zhou..., you are here."

Liu Yi subconsciously spoke, but as soon as his voice came out, he stopped hastily:

"I heard that Brother Zhou actually obtained the black iron during this long trip. It's really gratifying and congratulatory. I will take you to see Elder Xue right now."

As he spoke, he could not hide his envy.

"Thank you, senior brother." Zhou Jia nodded.

"No." Liu Yi waved his hands repeatedly:

"You have already advanced to Black Iron, so you should call me Liu. I don't deserve the title of senior brother."

"The etiquette cannot be discarded." Zhou Jia shook his head and turned sideways:

"Senior brother please!"

"Okay, okay." Liu Yi nodded, his expression inevitably a little excited.

Although there is only one step away from the mortal class and the black iron, their status is completely different. One is superior, while the other is mediocre.

After Zhou Jia attained the Black Iron, his attitude remained unchanged. Just this made him feel good.

His expression also became much more friendly.

"Elder Mo Li once said that my junior brother has a strong foundation and is more promising than anyone else on the island. I didn't really believe it at the time."

Walking on the road, Liu Yi spoke urgently:

"Unexpectedly, in just two years of hard work, my junior brother has already attained the Black Iron!"

"It's really..."

"Enviable!"

"I'm lucky too." Zhou Jia smiled lightly:

"That day when I was boating and passed by Tianlei Peak, I saw thunder falling from the sky, and I felt something in my heart. I happened to have the super-quality source of energy given by my uncle beside me."

"Just give it a try."

“I never imagined that it would be a success in one fell swoop.”

As early as a month ago, he had thought about how to explain his entry.

Enlightenment!

Whether it is the Dalin Dynasty or other worlds, there is the same saying that once someone realizes the Great Dao, his cultivation will advance by leaps and bounds.

During the Dalin Dynasty, warriors mostly relied on intuition to achieve breakthroughs in their innate abilities.

Others can,

Of course Zhou Jia can do it too.

It doesn't matter whether the process is true or false, but the cultivation of the black iron realm cannot be faked.

"Junior brother is really amazing." Liu Yi said with emotion:

"There is really no comparison between people. Junior Brother has already attained the Black Iron at such a young age. The middle stage of the Black Iron is just around the corner."

"In the later stage, there may not be hope."

After advancing to Black Iron, it can be said that it is a step-by-step process. If you want to achieve the late stage of Black Iron, relying on your own talent alone is far from enough.

Even if Liu Yi admires Zhou Jia's understanding, he still doesn't think he can achieve it in this life.

Zhou Jia smiled and said nothing.

While they were talking, the two of them had arrived at the center of Xiaolang Island, the Hall of Teaching.

"Elder Cui?"

Seeing the old man in the hall, Liu Yi looked slightly stunned:

"Isn't Elder Xue on duty today?"

"There was something going on in Shicheng, so he rushed over." Elder Cui had white hair on his head, wrinkles on his face, and his voice was even weaker.

Age, probably over ninety.

The average lifespan of a black iron expert is far longer than that of ordinary people, but the maximum lifespan is still over a hundred.

A ninety-year-old man should have enjoyed his old age in peace.

"There's something going on in the city again." Liu Yi frowned and shook his head helplessly:

"Then please trouble Elder Cui to log in the roster for Junior Brother Zhou and teach him the techniques. The junior will go to the back to prepare the identity plate to be used."

"Um."

Elder Cui waved his hand, his turbid old eyes fell on Zhou Jia, and a smile squeezed out of his wrinkled face:

"Young man, very good."

"Thank you, senior." Zhou Jia handed over his hand.

"To advance to Black Iron, you can apply to practice one of the three skills." Elder Cui tremblingly took out three volumes from under the table and placed them on the table:

"The Golden Jade Technique, the Divine Glory Technique, and the Hundred Refiners Questioning Mind Technique."

"Which one do you choose?"

"Senior." Zhou Jia asked:

"Can you tell me a few things?"

"Huh?" Elder Cui was stunned:

"Your master didn't tell..."

"oh!"

As if realizing something, he nodded and said:

"These three techniques each have their own advantages and disadvantages, and the grades are actually about the same. However, there is a convenient way to practice the Golden Jade Technique, which is to use the power of the cold pool on the island."

"There is no cold pool. Other external objects are also possible, but the progress is slower."

"The Shenhuang Jue has a solid foundation and is formed by integrating the three dharma of Taoism, Buddhism and Shen. However, there are only ten levels of the Shenhuang Jue, and no one has perfected them all since the person who created it."

"The Hundred Refining Questioning Mind Method has the effect of prolonging life. It recovers at an amazing speed after injury and has amazing explosive power. However, there is one drawback: it requires abstinence from sex in the future."

After a pause, he said again:

"I can give you the Divine Glory Technique and the Hundred Refiners Questioning Heart Technique right now, but the inheritance of the Golden Jade Technique lies with the Pulse Master. You need to ask for instructions and wait."

Zhou Jia sighed.

It is impossible for him to practice the Hundred Refinements Method of Questioning the Heart.

It is said that Jinyu Gong can be practiced, but in fact it is bound to be troublesome, and a foreigner named Hantan on the island may not be able to borrow it often.

There is actually only one choice.

"I choose Shenhuang Jue."

"Um."

Elder Cui was not surprised at all by this. Most of the monks with foreign surnames on the island chose this way. He immediately pushed over the book belonging to Shenhuang Jue and said:

"It's still the old rule. After copying it, hand it back within three days. It cannot be passed on to others, otherwise it will be dealt with according to the sect's rules."

"Senior." Zhou Jia picked up the book and asked curiously:

"Since no one has ever practiced this skill to the tenth level, how can we prove that its tenth level really exists?"

"You don't have to worry about that." Elder Cui chuckled, seeming to feel that his worries were unnecessary, but he still explained:

"The Shenhuang Jue was jointly created by the seniors on the island and the masters of the Xuankong Temple lineage. After it was created, it was reviewed by Master Yanfa, so there is no mistake."

Delay the law?

Zhou Jia nodded.

Since the fall of the Dalin Dynasty to the Ruin Realm, it has experienced life and death many times. During this period, several legendary figures have appeared to turn the tide and allow the ethnic group to continue.

For example, Lu Shize, the first leader of the Xuantian Alliance, Zhang Baifeng, the first silver master, and Master Yanfa are also legends. Although he did not achieve silver, his status is even more respected.

He is the master of the first strong silver man.

There was also one person who created all kinds of magic, leaving behind thirty-seven top lineages, which indirectly created several powerful silver men. To this day, most of the lineages in the inner sect are left by this person.

Master Yanfa was born in Xuankong Temple.

After he reviewed the exercises, there was nothing wrong with them.

It is said.

After Master Yanfa passed away, he left behind two relics, which have been circulating among the Xuantian League and the imperial court for future generations to worship.

"correct."

Putting away the scroll, Elder Cui remembered something:

"Since you have achieved Black Iron in advance, do you still want the super-grade source quality that the alliance applied for?"

"Huh?" Zhou Jia's expression changed slightly:

"Can I still have it?"

"Theoretically, it's not possible." Elder Cui shook his head:

"Every piece of super-grade source quality is extremely precious and cannot be wasted. Since it has become black iron, it will naturally be taken back by the alliance."

"But..."

He smiled mysteriously and said:

"There are a number of ultra-grade sources that can be divided into each vein. If you miss one, there will definitely be trouble. If you want it, there is still a way to think of it."

"Of course, the things may not be returned to you in the end, but at least you can get some source crystals."

"There are such good things." Don't give up the benefits for free. Zhou Jia nodded:

"I'd like to trouble Elder Cui to help this junior occupy it."

"Easy to say, easy to say." Elder Cui stroked his beard and chuckled. It seemed that he would inevitably gain some benefits in the process.

"Elder Cui!"

"Junior Brother Zhou!"

Liu Yi returned to the main hall holding the heavy tray in both hands:

"Enter the register!"

The atmosphere in the venue immediately became solemn.

Only those who are strong in black iron can be recorded in the inheritance list of the outer sect, and can be engraved on the inner sect and recorded in the Dalin Dynasty's genealogy for generations to see.

For many people, this is a great honor.

Library Garden.

Li Qiye rarely picked up the broom and swept up the dust on the ground.

He was wearing a gray cloth gown with a stooped back, like an old farmer who had been working hard for many years. He spoke slowly while cleaning:

"Have you heard everything that happened in the past month?"

"Um."

Zhou Jia put down the book in his hand, picked up the fluff duster to sweep away the dust on the bookshelf, nodded and spoke with emotion, but there was no complicated change on his face:

"Overnight, Master, Master Uncle, Senior Brother Yuan and others were killed one after another, but no one knows who did it. I hope the sect can give an explanation."

"I went to see my senior sister. She was crying every day, which was unbearable."

"Explain?"

Mo Li shook his head when he heard this:

"Although Lei Batian is in the middle stage of Black Iron cultivation, even the Pulse Master may not be sure that he can kill him, let alone others?"

"Nine times out of ten, this matter will be dropped!"

"and……"

He raised his head, glanced outside, and said slowly:

"At this time, no one probably cares."

Today's Shicheng has long been in chaos, like a clueless mess. Even the Su family, which has a military background, is in a state of chaos during this period.

certainly.

Whether he is excited or distressed, outsiders cannot tell.

Zhou Jia moved his hands and said:

"I've also heard that after my uncle left, the Tianhu Gang didn't want to find the murderer, but instead fought for their own rights."

"The same is true for Tianshui Village. The two major forces have fallen apart and the city is in chaos. The Pulse Master has been sending people into the city in the past few days just to revive the Tianhu Gang."

"Easier said than done!" Li Li sighed:

"The Tianhu Gang was defeated by Lei Batian single-handedly. How can outsiders know about it, let alone whether those people will be convinced."

really.

A big force, its internal affairs involve all aspects.

When outsiders suddenly moved in, it was impossible to figure out the details. Xiaolangdao had no idea which areas were profitable and which departments were important.

not to mention.

Neither the Xue nor Yang families have people who are good at handling such matters.

I'm afraid that in all likelihood, just like supporting Lei Batian, it will be too late to choose another spokesperson in a short period of time.

"When things stabilize, it's almost time to recruit soldiers."

Li Qiye had a look of emotion on his face. He didn't know what he was thinking of and sighed softly:

"Speaking of which, have you been outside during this time?"

"Um."

Zhou Jia nodded:

"This junior has not made any progress in my cultivation for a long time, so I went out to relax. I never thought that I would have some insights and advance to Black Iron by chance."

He did go on a long trip during this time.

I walked around the inner gate.

By the way, see if you can meet Yuan Xing.

pity!

The Source Star seems to depend on luck. Sometimes you don't want to, but you can come across it. You take the initiative to look for it, but you have no clue.

certainly.

While traveling, he also paid attention to news from all parties.

When it feels right, show up as a new Black Iron master.

Change to the past.

The new black iron is sure to attract everyone's attention.

But this time.

Everyone's eyes were attracted to Shi Cheng, and no one cared about the newly promoted Kurogane.

"After you advance to Black Iron, you have three years to recuperate, during which the sect will not send you to do anything." Mo Li said:

"In three years, you may be given some tasks."

"If it's just on the island or in Shicheng, that's fine, but sometimes it helps the military to suppress bandits, which may be a bit dangerous."

"Leave it to fate!" Zhou Jia did not worry about things that had not happened yet. Instead, he took the opportunity to ask questions about spiritual practice:

"Senior, how long does it take to break through the Divine Glory Technique?"

"People are different, and time is also different." Mo Li said:

"It can be as short as three to five years, or as slow as one or twenty years."

"Of course, if you have something to rely on, or if you risk your life to hunt the black iron beast, you can go even faster."

Three to five years?

Ten or twenty years?

Zhou Jia frowned.

Shenhuang Jue is based on Taoist methods and Buddhist martial arts, and is composed of the secret methods of the Mu world. It is divided into ten levels, each level is difficult and the other is difficult.

The ten levels are named after the three chakras and seven chakras.

Divided into feet, roots, navel, abdomen, heart, throat, forehead, top, phantom sea, and elixir.

The first level is the easiest, and the tenth level is the hardest. Although the difficulty does not increase much, it is an exaggeration that the first level takes so long.

No wonder, since the day the gong was created, no one has reached the tenth level.

The two chatted casually, like a pair of old friends.

Different from before.

Zhou Jia has achieved Black Iron, and Mo Li no longer has a condescending attitude. The two of them interact with each other as equals, and there are less scruples in their conversations.

"senior!"

While they were chatting, the three of them walked into the library. The person in front of them held his hand from afar.

There are very few outsiders here, and Zhou Jia can't help but look back.

"Senior Brother Le!"

The visitor's surname was Le, and he was over fifty years old, but his cultivation level was only at the ninth level. It was said that he came to Xiaolang Island because he married a daughter of the Xue family, and he was not very interested in cultivation.

"Junior brother Zhou is here too."

Seeing Zhou Jia, the visitor was filled with excitement. He hurriedly pulled the two young men behind him and said:

"You two come here quickly, you have seen Elder Mo and Uncle Zhou."

"Elder Mo!"

"Uncle Zhou!"

The young man's voice was clear and clear, with a hint of reluctance. Judging from his age, he was around seventeen or eighteen, and his cultivation level was all at level seven.

"New disciple?" Mo Li asked.

"Yes." Senior Brother Le nodded:

"The elders of these two boys have some connections with me, so I will help them a little. Since there is nothing else to do on the island, I arranged to come here to work so that they can work hard."

"Senior, please give me some advice when you have time."

"Um."

Li Qiye put down the broom, and one of them hurriedly took it and cleaned it diligently.

"There's not much going on here, just be careful not to damage the book."

Zhou Jia looked away, feeling a little melancholy for no reason.

once Upon a time.

He was extremely uncomfortable with others calling him uncle or uncle.

now.

After all, we are getting older and no longer young.

Shaking his head, he focused on the volume in his hand.

Detailed discussion of source material!

This is a book that introduces the essence, including the super-grade essence, and there are some records in it that caught his attention.

Ruins Realm?

Newcomer?

World fragments...

Over the years, the Xuantian Alliance has not only made progress in martial arts, but also explored the mysteries of the Xu Realm.
