Chapter 36 Three Killer Maces [Please vote and read] In front of the Qiuzhen Villa, Qiu Zhen left a large piece of land vacant, which was not cultivated into a medicinal field. This piece of vacant land is now put to use. After a few days of hard work, a two-story stone altar rose from the ground. The lower level is square and the upper level is circular. The altar is built with earth, with a total height of six feet, and is surrounded by flags made of five-colored silk. On the altar, there are paper horses, incense burners, talisman water, etc. Seeing that the sky was getting darker, Qiu Zhen immediately stepped onto the altar with four-square steps and burned three incense talismans to purify the filth and the altar. In the ancient world of immortal cultivation, performing rituals was much easier. After lighting a stick of incense, the next step is to report to the ancestors and the heaven, and then summon the heavenly soldiers and generals, the gods of the underworld, the ghost generals of Fengdu, and the local community leaders to the altar and wait for orders. In this way, the ritual can be said to be "as if assisted by a god" and has great magical powers.
In a sense, the ancient Taoists who were entrusted with the organization of the Heavenly Court were chased by the ancestors and fed by them. It’s a pity that with the passage of time, such beautiful things are gone forever. Nowadays, those who practice Taoism no longer practice "talismans" or offer sacrifices to the "immortal gods in the talismans". Instead, they basically return to "primitive" and mainly offer sacrifices to the gods of heaven, earth and nature. "The talisman declares, the Thunder God knows, I ask your mighty spirit to obey my command." Qiu Zhen held the wooden magic sword in one hand, made hand gestures with the other, and stepped on the Gang Step. After a few moves, he pointed the sword at the five-colored Luo flag and shouted: "I grant you the sword of immortality, the seven stars flying to the Big Dipper, the ancestor of wind and thunder, the source of rain and water, obey my command and enter my altar!" After singing. Qiu Zhen pointed his sword, and the thunder talisman in his hand ignited without fire and pointed towards the sky. "boom!" The thunder talisman turned into a ray of lightning and shot up into the sky. Then, it disappeared in an instant, as if a firework was set off, without causing any noise. However, Qiu Zhen's spiritual consciousness and divine eyes keenly sensed that the "thunder qi" between heaven and earth was becoming thicker. "Boom!" In the sky, dark clouds rolled and thunder rumbled. Qiu Zhen was delighted when he saw this, and he immediately sat in meditation and tried the Thunder Qi method. The art of talismans emphasizes "to unite my Qi with the Qi of heaven and earth, and to unite my spirit with the spirit of heaven and earth." Ordinary people who practice Taoism have not been able to become "Yin Gods" and their spiritual consciousness is weak. At best, they can "combine my Qi with the Qi of heaven and earth" to create Taoist talismans and spiritual talismans with magical powers. But if one wants to cultivate high-level thunder techniques such as the [Golden Light Talisman Technique], one must cultivate the "Yin God" before being able to summon the thunder Qi and refine the thunder Qi internally. "I receive the Qi of Thunder God and the mighty voice of Lightning Mother to cure all diseases in my body. I am able to command the generals of the five elements and the soldiers of the six Jia to cut off all evils and expel all spirits. Hurry and obey the command!"
As Qiu Zhen made hand gestures and chanted spells, he was surrounded by powerful and fierce auras. He did not miss the opportunity and immediately inhaled the lightning energy through his nose. "Zizzizi~" The air around me made an inexplicable sound. The heat in his ears turned into wind, the qi in his eyes turned into clouds, the vibration in his abdomen turned into thunder, and all the sweat, big or small, turned into rain. Immediately afterwards, his whole body vibrated and all his acupoints opened. However, Qiu Zhen was unaware of all this. He was already in a state of great tranquility, thinking of the two thunder gods, one yin and one yang, in his mind. One is in the heart, the other is in the kidney. When the heart and kidney interact, water and fire are in harmony. As the saying goes, Kan and Li mix to form Niwan, and the two Dou intersect and shine in front of the neck. In a moment, Qiu Zhen looked inside himself and saw a vision of "thunder and rain" in his body. Summer thunderstorms come quickly and go away quickly. Half an hour later. The sky cleared up and the mountains and rivers were clean. "Whoo~" After the thunderstorm, Qiu Zhen was soaked all over, but he was in a very good mood. In the sea of consciousness, three golden lights flashed, and thunder talismans generated by thunder were suspended in the air, making crackling sounds. It is the thunder technique [Golden Lightning Talisman]. Just now, he absorbed the thunder energy of heaven and earth, internally cultivated the Yin-Yang Thunder God, and cultivated these three [Golden Lightning Talismans]. "The aura seems to be a little weaker than described in the Qingwei Dan Jue." Qiu Zhen compared them carefully and had an idea in his mind. He condensed the "Yin Spirit" and was able to practice, but his cultivation level was low after all, so the [Golden Lightning Talisman] he cultivated was weaker than normal, which was normal and not surprising. No matter how weak the [Golden Lightning Talisman] is, it is still a spell comparable to the "innate martial arts" and is enough to threaten any martial artist or cultivator below the innate level. At present, he can only practice three sacrifices. As his cultivation level improves in the future, the number of sacrifices will naturally increase. Don't worry about this. "All of a sudden I have three more weapons, and I finally have the power to protect myself." Qiu Zhen was quite satisfied. "Hey~" Bai Zhu rushed over, massaged Qiu Zhen's shoulders, and was very respectful. Monsters are most afraid of thunder. Just now, Bai Zhu was really scared when he saw Qiu Zhen absorbing the thunder energy and being struck by lightning. In his mind, the image of Qiu Zhen as a "god" became more and more profound. "Don't cry like that anymore. You're a male fox, how can you cry like that every day?"
Qiu Zhen shook his head. Although he was concentrating on practicing magic these days, he still took time out every day to go to the An family library to read books. I didn't find any magical skills, but I did find a lot of books on "physiognomy". Among them are books on how to identify animals and monsters. After browsing and studying for a while, he came back and tried the technique of "identifying beasts and monsters". I didn't notice before, but Baizhu is actually a male fox. The bloodline of the monster beast is not pure either. It is not some exotic or divine species, but just the descendant of an ordinary monster beast. If it hadn't been for the chance encounter with the blessed land, it might not have become a monster. Of course, after knowing the result, he was not disappointed. Picking up a monster in the mountains casually, even if it is the descendant of a divine beast or a unique species of an exotic beast, is just a wishful dream, which is even more difficult than his chance encounter with an immortal. Baizhu is an ordinary monster, so this is normal. Besides, in his eyes, bloodline and race mean nothing. Bai Zhu chose to join him that day and made this decision, which meant that he would no longer be ordinary from then on. Apart from anything else, when he was practicing, Bai Zhu followed him and benefited from it, his strength improved, and he became more intelligent and spiritual. "You are going to be a great demon in the future!" Bai Zhu was excited: “Boohoo~” Qiu Zhen: “.” "Ouch, ouch, ouch~" Bai Zhu was very intelligent and knew that the gods didn't like "嘤嘤嘤", so he immediately changed his voice into a dog's barking, gesticulating and saying something. "Go hunt ferocious beasts?" After hearing Bai Zhu's suggestion, Qiu Zhen looked at the sky and nodded slightly. This time, he agreed to Bai Zhu's proposal. After mastering the [Golden Lightning Talisman] and having a means to protect his life, he finally had the capital to go deep into the mountains and forests. In the deep mountains and old forests, there are many ferocious beasts, magical herbs and precious medicines, and the resources are rich. As long as you have the strength, it is a huge treasure mine. He wanted to bring his parents and elder brother to the town and buy a house and land for them, which was not a small amount of money, at least several hundred taels of silver. For an ordinary martial artist, it is not easy to save several hundred taels of silver. Hunting ferocious beasts to make money is like licking blood on the tip of a knife, and few martial artists would do that.
Qiu Zhen is different. He possesses the supernatural power of clairvoyance, is an expert in archery, has Bai Shu as a scout, and now has formally mastered magic. It is not too dangerous for him to hunt ferocious beasts to make money. (End of this chapter)
