Chapter 4, the world is very dangerous
Lan Ling'e imitated her senior brother's actions, properly cupping her hands in response to her master, but unfortunately, her stomach let out a series of rumbling sounds, causing her delicate face to instantly flush red
Lan Ling'e's almond-shaped eyes widened as she pointed at the surface of the lake and softly called out
Therefore, even if we try our best to evade causality, we can never completely avoid it. At such times, we must learn to assess the situation and make reasonable judgments based on the circumstances, striving to keep ourselves out of danger
Master, what is the art of evasion?
Lan Ling'e could not help but let out an exclamation of admiration, and immediately, a commotion erupted in the forest, startling flocks of birds into flight.
She pondered carefully over her senior brother's teachings and quietly asked, "But senior brother, what should we do if we have used all our trump cards and still cannot defeat the opponent?"
Lan Ling'e gently blinked her eyes and had already followed her master into the thatched cottage
However, although Xiaoling'e constantly felt that what her senior brother said was very reasonable, upon careful reflection, she found that there was something...
Li Changshou immediately revealed a kind smile and praised, "Not bad, you have grasped it quite quickly."
Hmm
It is merely a simple manipulation of objects," Li Changshou said with a smile, "it can only be considered a minor skill
The third point is actually very simple, which is to escape
By the edge of the clear lake, a young Qi practitioner diligently instructs his newly initiated junior sister; meanwhile, a little girl, nibbling on pieces of roasted meat, gradually becomes engrossed in the lesson
However, after a while...
"Hmm," Lan Ling'e knelt beside, her small hand brushing a strand of dark hair by her ear, and in a faint, almost mosquito-like voice, she remarked, "I feel that Senior Brother's spells are all very powerful"
Ling'e, do you know what qi is
What is a trump card? What does that mean...
She whispered in admiration: "Senior brother, you are amazing"
The stone was tossed back and forth, and then casually thrown aside into the grass by Li Changshou, which left Lan Ling'e's eyes sparkling with wonder.
Lan Ling'e shrank her neck, as her senior brother's words sounded like a magical incantation in her ears, causing her to involuntarily feel a chill run down her spine
"Then, Senior Brother," Lan Ling'e asked nervously, "what should we do to truly survive?"
Senior brother, are we having these herbs for lunch
On the surface of the lake, Li Changshou walked on the waves. After taking two steps, his figure transformed into a stream of water and vanished. A few breaths later, he reappeared at the center of the lake.
Lan Ling'e stood on tiptoe and just caught sight of her senior brother's tall figure emerging from the lakeside in the distance, standing quietly on the water's surface
Do you wish to learn? You must wait until your cultivation level reaches a certain stage, then your master can pass it on to you
What about the water escape technique of that senior brother? Can Ling'e cultivate now
Be more specific; in the future, if you acquire any powerful spells, supernatural abilities, or magical treasures, keep them hidden as your trump card. Do not let others know about them. At a critical moment, reveal them, and they will serve as a decisive blow.
Ling'e has not yet begun to fast, and it is not sufficient to simply consume the nourishing elixir. Later, when you set up the thatched cottage, please also build a stove. During this period before Ling'e starts her fasting, prepare a meal for her every day.
Lan Ling'e blinked and asked, "Senior brother, what does 'newbie' mean?"
The primordial existence has been present since ancient times, and the number of top experts is countless, making it exceedingly difficult for newcomers to rise to prominence
The water escape technique has been mastered, yet the speed is quite slow
Lan Ling'e swiftly finished off the piece of chicken, her eyes sparkling with delight, as her taste buds continued to savor the flavors, prompting her to involuntarily lick her fingers
This article presents the method for establishing a foundational path, which encompasses the lands of the five continents. It is indeed a premier method for laying the foundation. In the future, should you wish to cultivate other techniques, you may rely on this method to establish your foundation
The old Daoist Qi Yuan turned his head to look at the center of the lake and said with a smile: "Your senior brother is comprehending the art of water escape; do not let him affect your state of mind. Now, listen carefully, I will explain this set of techniques to you."
Qiyuan stroked his beard and smiled, saying: "The art of evasion is a type of magic that allows the caster to swiftly traverse different environments. The technique of water evasion enables one to move rapidly through water, even faster than a swimming fish"
Hmm? Smoke escape? Li Changshou was momentarily taken aback, then he chuckled silently, "That is the Illusion Technique, primarily used for self-preservation in combat, but it can also injure or trap the enemy. It is considered our master's signature skill.
However, when employing the Water Escape technique, one can merge with the water, which can indeed resist some attacks from magical artifacts
Li Changshou clasped his hands and replied: "The disciple obeys your command"
Even if you possess all the magical treasures and divine powers, if your own fortune is insufficient and you attract calamity, it is inevitable that you will meet with death and perish.
Moreover, cultivation ultimately serves merely as a foundation. Even when two individuals of the same high realm engage in a battle of spells, the side without powerful magical artifacts will inevitably face...
Water nourishes all things without contention, it carries a thousand boats without capsizing, and it is indeed worth further exploration
Li Changshou said leisurely: "As the saying goes, as long as the green mountains remain, one need not worry about firewood."
I am going to cultivate, Ling'e. If you have any matters, you may speak to your senior brother.
Before long, Li Changshou had skillfully set up a grill by the lake, plucked and cleaned the pheasant, took out a few jars of his treasured seasonings, and began to 'entice' his junior sister's appetite.
Through his continuous exploration, he soon no longer needed to walk on the water's surface; as long as he made contact with the lake water, he could directly perform water escape techniques
In today's cultivation world, or rather across the entire five continents, the most popular fighting technique is to practice certain magical treasures, enhancing one's own cultivation and imbuing it into these treasures, and then using the treasures to strike others
Master Qi Yuan chuckled, transforming into a wisp of blue smoke and vanishing; Li Changshou also wore a smile, yet directed his gaze towards the lakeside to spare his junior sister from feeling too awkward
Of course not, " Li Changshou extended his right palm forward, and a pebble flew in from the side, spinning once in his palm, followed by a sharp whistling sound as it shot straight into the forest.
Disciple is here
Li Changshou smiled with his eyes narrowed and led Lan Ling'e to the open space next to the medicinal herb garden. "What would you like to eat? Our mountain has plenty of wild delicacies. If you have no dietary restrictions, I will recommend some for you."
The junior sister's introductory education, however, he has prepared for a long time, organizing the results of several months in his mind
Is it roughly that of a clumsy beginner
"But, Senior Brother," Lan Ling'e asked softly, "Isn't our cultivation aimed at achieving immortality, so that we can be invulnerable to deceit and roam freely in the world?"
By the lakeside under the shade of the willow trees, Lan Ling'e withdrew her gaze, which had unconsciously strayed towards the lake, and nervously flicked her tongue
Qi is the network of heaven and earth, the breath of all living beings; all forms of cultivation begin with Qi, and all kinds of supernatural powers are transformed by Qi. The inhalation and exhalation, the cycles of Qi, constitute the complete system of the universe
If you possess a strength of one hundred, you may conceal thirty and only reveal seventy to others
Soon, a golden pheasant with tricolored feathers soared through the air, the stone embedded in its chest; this spirit bird had long since met its demise
Lan Ling'e focused her mind and listened carefully to the profound teachings of cultivation spoken by her master, striving to comprehend the meaning of these statements
trump card
Master! Senior brother has disappeared!
Li Changshou remained unsatisfied, continuing to delve deeply into his studies, seemingly completely unaware of the passage of time
Body, death, way, disappearance
Let us go inside to practice
Indeed, achieving this is quite difficult
Until the afternoon, the old Daoist Qi Yuan called him back with his voice
When the body dies, the path ceases
What I impart to you today is the foundational text of the Dao of the Du Xian Sect, which is the "Yi Qi Zheng Tian Jue"
This will undoubtedly be a lesson that impacts her entire immortal life
For example, you and I, because we have both taken the same master, have a connection between us, which creates a cause. In the future, if either of us encounters trouble, the other will inevitably be drawn into it, and this is a consequence.
Li Changshou stood with his hands behind his back, lost in thought. After a moment, he continued to walk on the water, disappearing from the surface with every few steps he took
Li Changshou slowly turned the grill in his hands, responding methodically:
What is the second article
wild game
Like my master, I am also an alchemist who has yet to attain immortality
The old Daoist Qi Yuan casually summoned two cushions, brought up the wooden door of the thatched cottage, and lightly tapped the little disciple's head with his whisk, saying, "Pay attention and listen carefully"
This is the third one, "Li Changshou flicked his fingers, and the roasted golden pheasant was directly dismembered, transforming into pieces of meat infused with spiritual energy, floating in front of Lan Ling'e
Something seems a bit off
If one has made every possible effort and still finds oneself in danger, then there is only the second course of action left.
In this way, if someone intends to scheme against you, you will be able to catch them off guard
Lan Ling'e wiped the drool from the corner of her mouth; the golden pheasant, which had been roasted to a perfect medium, was already beginning to emit an incredibly enticing aroma
To escape from a master, one needs an exceptionally strong ability to react in critical situations. Here, the importance of escape techniques must be emphasized. The more escape techniques you learn, the greater your hope of survival
Ling'e ... ... Ling'e ? ''
In summary
Senior brother! Did Master just use the Smoke Technique?
Look, isn't your senior brother appearing by the lake? The speed of this evasion technique is indeed quite remarkable
No, you may be mistaken. Cultivation is not something grand or lofty," Li Changshou shook his head and sighed gently, "We cultivate in order to continuously become stronger, so that we can cope with various difficult environments and thus survive.
Immortality is merely a realm of cultivation; upon reaching this realm, one will no longer die of natural causes, yet various calamities may still claim your life
This primordial world is exceedingly brutal; becoming an immortal is merely the first step out of the novice village. After achieving immortality, one must traverse seven or eight major realms before one can barely be considered a master. Each realm can stymie countless so-called geniuses and prodigies.
This technique of controlling objects is the foundation of manipulating magical artifacts
Even if you possess powerful magical artifacts, without formidable divine abilities, you are still bound to meet your demise.
The so-called trump card refers to the various abilities you have hidden away. Li Changshou tore off a piece of chicken and handed it to the already impatient Ling'e, continuing his lesson.
If we speak of the art of evasion, within our Du Xian Sect, your senior brother can indeed be considered formidable. The old Daoist Qi Yuan displayed a sense of helplessness, saying, If he could devote half the effort he puts into evasion to other techniques, I would feel a bit more at ease.
The old Daoist Qi Yuan turned his head to look and immediately smiled helplessly, sighing: "That is the art of evasion"
You have just begun your practice, and you are not very familiar with these matters. I will gradually explain them to you in the future
As dusk falls in the west, the aroma of meat fills the fields
Senior Brother, what kind of spell was that stone just now? How could it fly out and then return?
Yes, Master
Li Changshou slightly shook his head and earnestly educated, "You are mistaken, junior sister, this is not impressive
There is also self-cultivation, which can conceal a part; this is also a trump card
Li Changshou's voice continued to resonate
First, to avoid causality, one should try to refrain from involvement with strange matters. The best approach is to stay at home and cultivate one's practice, avoiding unnecessary movement and limiting contact with others
Your senior brother has a strong interest in various escape techniques, and this should be the sixth escape technique he has mastered
Oh," Lan Ling'e quickly sat cross-legged, this time she would surely be able to calm her mind.
Um, Lan Ling'e blinked her eyes. Although most of her attention was drawn to the barbecue, she was still trying hard to understand her senior brother's words
Ahem, let's get down to business
The Water Escape technique requires a bit more time; you must wait until you enter the Qi Refinement and Spirit Transformation realm before you can practice it. This applies to all Five Element Escape techniques. For now, do not overthink it; you are merely a novice Qi Refiner who has just completed your first meditation.
Acting impulsively will only ruin a bright future; life is precious and only comes once. Of course, those with outstanding character and temperament may encounter good fortune and have a second chance.
