Chapter 463: The Process of Reform, the Swordsman and the Tianji Dao
Although the reform has stalled now, it cannot be said that it is not prosperous. The path of enlightenment, the path of sacrificing life, the path of sacrifice, the path of nature...
Many roads to life extension have extended to many life extension professions, such as medical doctors, black marketeers, Gu masters, rain masters, death counselors, warriors, water ghosts, yin and yang couples, parasite masters...
etc.
They each have different teachings and different principles, but what is proven is that they do work.
Various.
People are still trying to find the secret. Who doesn’t want to extend their life? Who would rather turn into dust?
However... few people know about the short-lived professions such as swordsmen and magicians in the earlier period of the Reform.
At that time, the path to life extension was not yet clear, and there was no detailed division. Everything was in a state of chaos.
That's why the thin man was so surprised when the words "swordsman" came out of Li Changxiao's mouth.
Liu Qier, who was on the side, was confused by what he heard. However, no matter how stupid he was, he realized that it was not simple anymore, so he quietly put away his unruly attitude and listened quietly.
"Hehe, Master is bringing me into the world." Liu Qier chuckled, feeling that the vast world was slowly unfolding in front of him.
Then he slapped himself in the face and forced himself to take a serious stance.
I thought that if I didn’t listen carefully, Master would test me later and if I couldn’t answer, it would be embarrassing.
But with my own qualifications, if I take it a little seriously, I'm afraid even Master will be surprised, right?
Liu Qier thought so.
The thin man regained his composure and said, "Your Excellency, you are not simple. You actually know the swordsman. I'm afraid you are also a monk, right?"
"Yes." Li Chang smiled and nodded.
The thin man is also a monk, but his spiritual energy is exhausted and he has just fifty years left to live. Therefore, he looks like a man in his prime, just like a mortal.
"Monk!!?"
Liu Qier's eyes widened. He rubbed his ears and pinched his cheeks to confirm that he had heard correctly and was not dreaming.
He's actually a monk! Doesn't that mean that the master is an immortal!
His heart was lifted, he felt dizzy, and immediately he couldn't stop smiling.
Liu Qier was just a beggar, so he didn't know that there were immortals in the world. But I have heard in story books that the legendary immortals soar into the clouds and ride on the mist, and their magic is extraordinary.
Now when I heard the two talking, I was naturally surprised. Not only was there an immortal in the world, but I also met him, and that immortal even accepted me as his disciple!
Along with the excitement came an almost overwhelming sense of superiority.
If he goes out on the street at this moment, he will see that everyone is an ordinary person who cannot tolerate vulgarity.
Every day I worked hard for those three taels of silver, but the young master suddenly transformed into a high-ranking immortal seeking immortality.
This blessing...how can I compare it?
Liu Qier coughed twice and suppressed his excitement, not daring to show his arrogance in front of his "master".
"This Tianji Dao is indeed somewhat related to the Swordsman." The thin man nodded and replied.
"The Swordsman originated from the use of natural things. He mixed certain minerals in nature according to a certain proportion and then refined them."
"It is made into the shape of a knife. When the user taps the scabbard, the blade vibrates, and it can emit strange energy. They are the first people in the human race to master extraordinary power without relying on spiritual energy."
The thin man obviously understands this very well.
In addition, there are magicians, who are also very similar. Magicians also rely on various materials to prepare magic potions and add them to their bodies.
"But later, with the rise of the Reform Movement, these original professions gradually disappeared in the long history. The reason is very simple..." The thin man paused.
Li Changxiao nodded, "You can't extend your life."
→
The fundamental purpose of the reform is to find a road that can replace the original road. In other words, extending life is fundamental.
"This loneliness lasted for hundreds of years." The thin man said calmly: "Now that the reform has stalled, some people are learning from the past and the present."
"Visit the mysteries of nature and create creation with one hand."
"This is Tianji Dao, so you can see traces of swordsmen, magicians, etc. on some instruments."
The thin man talks eloquently.
Tianji Dao...
This way does not prolong life, nor is it intended to prolong life.
Li Changxiao heard this, nodded secretly, and immediately asked: "So now you are focusing on studying Tianji?"
"Tianji Dao has just started." The thin man said: "I have no more life left. I must either wait to die or study Tianji Dao."
"It was only when I stepped into this path that I discovered the vastness of this path. I gradually realized that the Tianji Dao has a lot to offer."
"All the ways of reform are stagnant, but the way of heaven and earth is full of vitality."
Finished.
The thin man looked at Li Changxiao and said, "Of course, I don't dare to think of myself as an immortal anymore. The development of Tianji Dao is too vulgar and requires money."
"Although I've told you so much, I still don't have to think about discounts."
Hearing this, Li Changxiao was stunned for a moment, and then burst into laughter. He never thought that this long speech was actually a sales promotion.
It's quite interesting.
Liu Qier didn't understand, but he imitated "Master's" movements and laughed, pretending to be cool.
But the two of them ignored him at all.
"Let's pick a few." Behind the thin man, there were a wall full of mechanical props.
The outermost layer is full of interesting small objects, and the following layers gradually become full of murderous aura, becoming extremely lethal weapons.
But compared to those "big killers", Li Changxiao was obviously more interested in those small objects.
"These alone don't seem to be enough to support this Tianji Pavilion, right?" Li Changxiao looked around and asked curiously.
"Of course." The thin man did not hide it, "Some of the materials of the mechanism are rare and expensive, and require a lot of manpower and material resources."
"My spiritual energy is exhausted, only slightly stronger than ordinary people, and I don't have strong assets. There is someone behind me."
"Who? The three major families in Qingrao City?" Li Changxiao asked.
"No." The thin man shook his head, "Although they are rich, they don't have this strength and connections."
The thin man looked at Li Changxiao and said softly: "It's the majesty of Dayu. Although she is a woman, she has a keen eye and is very optimistic about Tianji Dao."
"Oh?" Li Changxiao raised his eyebrows slightly.
It seems that Dayu is indeed more interesting than he imagined.
I thought it was just an ordinary mortal country. In his life, he has traveled to thousands and tens of thousands of countries, and there are only a few people who can remember their names and call out the country name.
Now it seems...
Dayu is not ordinary.
"This empress is really interesting." Li Changxiao muttered to himself. He had heard rumors about her at least ten times along the way.
Then, he frowned again.
The next step of the mermaid tribe seemed to be targeting the empress? If nothing unexpected happened, after finding the descendants of the three tribes, his next step would be to go to Dayu City.
"I want this."
Li Changxiao looked at a bamboo windmill for a long time, smiled to himself, and picked it up.
The magical little windmill would flash a faint light when it was blown by the wind.
"You want this?" The thin man looked strange. This was a toy that only children liked.
He made it casually, but never thought that a cultivator would be interested in it.
"Yes."
Li Changxiao nodded.
