“Master Chen, your son is very motivated.” Eunuch Feng looked at Chen Shi, who was discussing the Eight Diagrams Body Protection Technique with Cheng Qi and Granny Sha, and said in surprise.
Chen Tang sighed: "The more aggressive he is, the greater the pressure on me." "Me too."
Eunuch Feng said with a solemn expression, "Our family is also afraid that some guys will break up. Last night, after all, I still looked up and looked down, and I was still kind. My two dogs didn't kill me. However, they placed a lot of money on the young master. "There are many people who follow the young master in Xijing, and there are not a few dignitaries in Xijing.
It is hard to guarantee that someone will lose their eyes.
"Moreover, are you sure that you will win?"
Eunuch Feng was a little worried and said, "Master Chen, I put my wealth on the son. If I lose, I will also lose the position of Dongchang and the eunuch in charge. The last piece of pure land in the court will also be lost to them." He had the foresight. When the Thirteenth Family decided to support the son, he sensed that the situation was not right, so he secretly instructed Prince Xiao to steal the Jade Seal of the West King and fly away with the Jade Seal of the West King.
At that time, he was the eunuch who held seals, and the seal he held was the Jade Seal of the King of the West. Yuxi is the guard of the Shenji Camp, and the two admirals of the Shenji Camp are also eunuchs, under the supervision of the eunuchs in charge of the seal. Without Eunuch Feng's connivance, Prince Xiao would never have been able to steal this treasure.
In Xijing, the eunuchs holding the seal and the cabinet check and balance each other. Many major events cannot be done without the eunuch holding the seal and sealing them. Otherwise, if the Xiwang Jade Seal falls into the hands of the young master, the young master will not need to borrow the number one scholar to gain prestige for himself.
——At that time, Eunuch Feng had his own selfish intention, which was to let Xiao Wangsun inherit the Xiwang Jade Seal and ascend the throne to become the new true king. However, after Xiao Wangsun returned from Qianyang Mountain, his enthusiasm waned and he was not interested in the plan to restore the Zhu family. Chen Tang thought about it for a moment and said, "I'll use the Spirit Transformation Realm to tie with Xiao'er."
Eunuch Feng's heart suddenly crossed, and he asked tentatively: "It is the first time you enter the realm of divine transformation, or the peak realm of spiritual transformation?" He added: "Different realm stages, your strength may change dramatically."
Eunuch Feng's first time entering the realm of divine transformation, the soul has just been combined with the soul, and transformed from the Nascent Soul into the soul. At that time, the soul was no more than a foot tall. This stage is called soul integration.
In the middle stage of the spirit transformation state, the soul is refined to the point where it is equal to the body. This stage is called standing body.
In the out-of-body stage of the state of transformation, the physical body can no longer accommodate the soul, so it is necessary for the soul to leave the body. This stage is called getting out of body.
At the peak of the spirit transformation realm, the soul has far exceeded the height of the physical body, and the limit is a body of six feet.
This stage is called Zhangliu Shen.
Different stages have huge differences in cultivation strength.
Chen Tang hesitated and said: "At first, I used the strength of the soul. Later, when he was forced out of the main hall, I used the strength of the soul to defeat him. Later, when the battle ended, I used the strength of the out-of-body body."
Eunuch Feng thought for a moment, shook his head and said: "The inheritance that the young master received is the inheritance left by the True King lineage. Although he is high-profile, he rarely uses his true inheritance. Our Dongchang has collected all his attack records, all the spells, magical powers, and talismans he used. . The talismans and magic weapons are all recorded. He has mastered the skills of all major families, and even many ordinary people, and he has never used real skills."
Chen Tang did not speak and listened quietly.
Although he has great magical powers, in terms of information collection, Eunuch Feng who controls Dongchang is more proficient.
"In the True King's era, many techniques were not handed down. The True King's lineage was scattered in the rivers and lakes, hiding their names and spreading their branches. They still retained some of the royal family's techniques."
Eunuch Feng said, "There are many Kung Fu techniques of the True King lineage, among which the Eight Gates of Reversal of Life and Death and the Jade Emperor's Fetal Breathing Sutra are the most famous. These two techniques are both immortal techniques and were inherited from Emperor Jiajing. As the saying goes, the body shape resembles a crane, with a thousand pine trees under two tracts of scripture. The two tracts of scripture refer to these two techniques."
He paused and said: "If Mr. Xiao Chen can only compare with your soul's out-of-body strength, then it will be difficult to defeat the young master. I have to be able to match your six-foot-six body to be confident." Chen Tang's eyes flashed: "The palace examination is still in one month. After one month, I will definitely be able to make a breakthrough and enter the realm of spirit transformation."
Eunuch Feng said calmly: "But tomorrow, there will be a martial arts test. At that time, soldiers will fight against soldiers, generals will decide the ranking of the battle. Mr. Xiao Chen will eventually meet the young master. If you want to win, there are two ways. The first method Son, you attacked the Young Master tonight and seriously injured him. You were injured by Shui Xuanzhi last night, but he was also injured. You won’t win this battle, and your life or death will be uncertain. "
Chen Tang's expression did not change and said: "What's the second way?"
Eunuch Feng said: "Let the young master encounter Zhang You by tampering with the fight tomorrow. Zhang You He is the next generation sect leader chosen by the Zhang family. He is secretive and his strength will not be weaker than Young Master and Master Xiao Chen. Let him weaken Young Master first, and it would be best for both parties to lose, and then Master Xiao Chen can take the opportunity to defeat Young Master."
He smiled: "And the first assistant Zhang Fu is Mr. Zhang, he is one of ours. Zhang You's move..." Chen Tang shook his head and said: "Zhang First Assistant cannot arrange Zhang You, he is not qualified." Eunuch Feng was slightly startled and looked up at him.
Chen Tang said: "The cabinet has no right to arrange the next generation of the clan heads of the Thirteen Aristocratic Families. On the contrary, the thirteen ministers in the cabinet are subject to the control of the clan heads of each family."
Eunuch Feng said: "Then, you take action tonight. It is not polite to come and go without reciprocating. You raided the show hall at night! Don't pretend to be a gentleman, I know you are not!"
Chen Tang shook his head and said, "I won't go. If I go, I can indeed severely injure the young master, but I won't be happy. If I were him, I would definitely want to defeat the young master myself. He should think so too." Eunuch Feng frowned and sighed: "Then in this examination, I'm afraid that Mr. Xiao Chen will lose first. In the palace examination in a month, do you think Mr. Chen will be the best?" Do people have a chance? "
Chen Tang said decisively: "In one month, the young master will definitely be defeated!"
Eunuch Feng breathed a sigh of relief, looked at Chen Shi who was talking and laughing, and said, "Then wait for the battle in a month!"
Chen Tang nodded lightly.
Eunuch Feng said: "Chen Wu has left Xijing and gone to Despair Slope. You have been investigating for a long time and know how scary the other party is. Don't you want to dissuade him?" Chen Tang said: "I can't dissuade him. Moreover, he is also extremely scary."
Eunuch Feng said: "All the true kings are gone. Those monks who were extraordinary and saintly in those days are no match for others. An era has ended. What use can Chen Wu find in the past?" His face was calm and he said: "Chen Tang, I looked around, and my eyes were full of despair."
Chen Tang was silent.
The conversation between Chen Shi, Cheng Qi and Granny Sha had just come to an end. Granny Sha smiled and said: "Cheng Qi is indeed extremely talented and has a profound knowledge in Talisman. He is bound to have extraordinary achievements in Talisman. You should join the San Clan! When you get to Hongshan Hall, I will get you a San Clan invitation. In nine years, there will be the next San Clan gathering. At that time, you will also be eligible to participate."
The conversation between the three of them just now was basically dominated by Chen Shi and Granny Sha. Cheng Qi could only listen and occasionally add a word or two. However, even one or two words had already made Granny Sha take a new look at him and think he was extremely talented. However, Chen Shi and Granny Sha soon started talking about topics ranging from talismans to the realm of ghosts and gods. This was too advanced for him, like listening to a book from heaven.
Chen Tang said: "Chen Shi, go have a meal and prepare for the martial arts test in the afternoon!"
Chen Shi turned a deaf ear and continued to communicate with Granny Sha on how to evolve the realm of ghosts and gods from innate gossip.
"Since there are changes in the universe, there must also be changes in the wind and thunder, mountains and rivers, and changes in water and fire! The changes in the universe are the most difficult, but these three realms of ghosts and gods are the easiest. They cannot be used here." Grandma Sha said, "Let's go outside the city! I don't believe that with the brains of the two of us, we can't compare to the brain of the creature Xiaowu!"
Chen Shi suggested: "I have small heavens refined in the Great Void Realm at home. It is better to go to the Small All Heavens to test."
Grandma Sha shook her head and said, "No, the Great Void Realm is not the real heaven and earth. There are always many falsehoods in the demonstration of Taoism." Although her cultivation level is not very high, her insights are extremely profound.
The two of them walked out of the city. Not far away, Xiang Yunfei looked up at the adults. He saw that the woman he liked had left with someone else, and he felt a sense of loss.
Chen Shi and Grandma Sha went outside the city, looked for an open space, and immediately studied the three changes. They did not start directly from the Eight Trigrams Body Protection Technique, but started from the beginning, starting from talismans such as the Taishang Bagua Body Protection Technique to find the root of Taoism. The two of them studied until the afternoon. When Chen Tang came to urge them, Chen Shi was shocked to realize that there would be a martial arts test in the afternoon.
"Sister Sha, wait for me! I'll be back after I finish the exam!"
He said goodbye to Granny Sha and hurried to the martial arts field of Shenji Camp. The martial arts test in the afternoon was about art, with the main test being skills.
The scholar performs a skill in which he is most proficient, which can be drawing talismans, spells, flying, swordsmanship, etc., and it will be evaluated by the examiner.
This scene was not difficult for Chen Shi. His mind was entirely on the three changes of wind and thunder, mountains and rivers, and water and fire. He casually cast a set of spells to deal with it, and then left in a hurry.
However, the young master went all out and performed the spell of dragon and phoenix descending from the nine heavens, which shocked the whole audience in the exam. For a time, there were voices calling for the young master inside and outside the stadium. The young master was full of ambition and looked around, but there was no trace of Chen Shi, and he couldn't help but feel a little disappointed.
There is another incident that caused quite a stir in this martial arts test. During the martial arts test, more than ten people actually broke through their inherent realm and entered the realm of transformation into gods! "It's those mud-legged people again!" The officials in Xijing were extremely surprised.
This year's exam is really weird. In previous years, it was the children of aristocratic families who took the lead, shining brightly in the exam and winning cheers. But this year is different.
In this year's exam, not many children from aristocratic families excelled, but on the contrary, many powerful figures emerged from the country bumpkins. "Is there no one from the Thirteenth Family this year?" an examiner asked with a frown.
"Yes. I lived in Qixia Temple, but disappeared for some reason. I heard someone said that he was eaten by the female fairy at the end of the white jade stairs."
An examiner knew about this and said, "Some people say that the Dragon King in the well crawled out and ate them. The Thirteenth Family sent many experts into Qixia Temple to search for the whereabouts of these people. It is said that at night, the female fairy came out and waved to them. An adult from the Li family who beheaded three corpses was confused by the female fairy, walked over and disappeared."
An examiner from the side came over and said, "I heard that some of them entered the Dragon Locking Well and were beaten up by the Dragon King in the well, and almost didn't come out alive." Everyone was shocked: "Are these two evil spirits so powerful?"
"I heard that they were evil spirits left over from the era of the True King. The True King was not able to kill them back then."
An examiner from the Ministry of Rites was a little embarrassed and said: "If all the people who come up this year are mud-legged people with no background, how can they explain it to their superiors?" Everyone stopped talking.
There are many small aristocratic families in various places, but although the children of these small aristocratic families have family secrets, their family secrets are not as good as the skills learned by these country bumpkins, and the power of their spells is not as great as others. The realm may be a little higher, but it is also limited. This matter is not only a headache for them, but also for the cabinet and other officials.
In addition to the core disciples who disappeared from Qixia Temple, there are still many disciples who come to participate in this spring festival. However, these disciples are not very outstanding. They originally had a chance to win. After entering Xijing, they wandered around the flower streets and willow lanes, becoming the clear stream of lingering brothels.
These days, they did not practice much.
However, in order to make money, these clay-legged lifters became talisman masters of the Hongshan Hall Talisman Master Association. They fought against evil spirits every day and developed their skills, and their cultivation levels actually improved. The clay-legged lifter actually shined in this spring, but there were only a few children from aristocratic families who stood out.
At night, Chen Shi and Granny Sha were still delving into the three realms of ghosts and gods in Bagua, forgetting to sleep and eat, and never went home.
Chen Tang personally picked up a lantern and came to look for it, saying: "There is no rush to study today. Tomorrow is the last day of the examination, so we cannot delay it."
Chen Shi had no choice but to go home with Chen Tang.
Even while eating, he was still thinking about the three transformations of ghosts and gods. He often forgot to chew while eating, and water and fire appeared around him, floating in the air, and suddenly transformed. Sometimes there would be thunder and strong winds, making Chen's house look like it was haunted. This night was spent peacefully under the horrified eyes of the maids and servants of the Chen Mansion.
The third day, the third session of the literary test, the question.
The first question: The saints of the past have succeeded one after another, unified and controlled the universe, established the outline and established the discipline, and made the rituals and music clear. They should hang down their clothes to govern, how can they be peaceful? The young and strong are able to do their best, show off the Chinese people inside, and garrison the wilderness outside. Asked if this fruit is easy to kill, why is it so good? Second question: When an emperor governs the world, he must have the right principles. Ask about the way to govern the world?
Chen Shi had no desire to answer questions this time, so he picked the shortest question, copied the title, wrote down his name, surname and place of origin, and let the clerk answer. He was immersed in the evolution of the three transformations of ghosts and gods in Bagua, completely forgetting himself.
The young master and Zhang You looked at him frequently and saw that Chen Shi was distracted. They were both surprised in their hearts, but they both breathed a sigh of relief. In the afternoon, there will be the third round of the martial arts test, a martial arts battle.
If Chen Shi was still in this state at that time, he would obviously not be their match!
After the third literary test, Chen Shi left the Rites Yamen in a daze. Eunuch Feng couldn't help frowning when he saw Chen Shi's state. The fight in the afternoon is very important. In this state, Chen Shi will be easily defeated!
Not far away, Shi Shuixuanzhi, the head of the Fuzheng Pavilion, saw this scene from a distance. He breathed a long sigh of relief and said with a smile: "Young master is stable." At noon, Chen Shi was still a little out of shape while eating and often distracted.
In the afternoon, the soldiers of the fifth military camp raised large flags, opened up the void, opened the two realms of yin and yang, and revealed a large realm sandwiched between the yin and yang realms. This is the Xijing Martial Arts Arena, where martial arts trials have been held in all dynasties. Rumor has it that this great realm that spans the two realms of Yin and Yang is the great realm of void left by a demi-immortal in the True King era. It was transformed into a blessed land and is called the Immortal Bridge Blessed Land, which means the bridge that runs through the two realms of Yin and Yang.
Many people were led by the soldiers of the fifth military camp and flew into the blessed land of Xianqiao.
Chen Tang and others were watching, when Granny Sha rushed over and said loudly: "I understand! Xiao Shi, I have realized the transformation of water and fire! Xiao Shi, guides the sun and moon, gathers energy and turns into smoke. Samsara, water and fire, all transformations are in the body! The secret lies in the sun, moon and reincarnation!" Chen Tang shook his head and said: "Sister, you are late, he has already entered the blessed land. He was the first batch to be sent in."
Grandma Sha was stunned: "What should I do?"
In the blessed land of Xianqiao, the young master breathed a sigh of relief and smiled: "Today, I can finally use the secret skills passed down from my family."
