The Wheel-Turning Master.

Chapter 103 Sword Intent
In a blink of an eye, another half month passed. Lin Bai went out, preparing to deliver the goods to Fengming Pavilion, and by the way, to see if Zhu Yumao had returned.

As soon as I went out, I saw Jiang Chun.

"Brother Jiang, how are you?" Lin Bai bowed with a smile.

Jiang Chun returned the greeting and said with a smile, "How are you, Daoist Yun?"

"Brother Daoist, I heard from Brother Xiao Jiang that your family's underground fire can be used to refine magical instruments. I wonder if there are any magical instruments that are compatible with the underground fire?" Lin Bai asked curiously.

Lin Bai has been in Xinyifang for such a long time, but he still doesn't have a decent sword in his hand. The storage ring still contains an ordinary iron sword made in his hometown.

"Of course there is." Jiang Chun smiled confidently, "Under the Earth Fire Cave, there is also a world, and there are underground caves built specifically for refining tools. If you want to ask for a magic tool that is compatible with the Earth Fire, just go to my shop and have a look."

"Price..." Lin Bai started searching.

"With my family's Earth Fire Cave Mansion bronze plaque, you can get a 20% discount." Jiang Chun smiled happily and reminded, "Remember to mention my name."

"Thank you, Brother." Lin Bai bowed in thanks.

After chatting for a few more words, Lin Bai said goodbye and went to Fengming Pavilion.

Senior Zhu Jianyang went to Qiaoshan Sect and has not returned yet, and Zhu Yumao has also not returned.

After handing over the elixir to Zhu Yuling, Lin Bai asked about the magic weapon. If her family had a magic weapon that was compatible with the earth fire, Lin Bai would naturally be willing to come to her house to buy it.

"I have underground fire at home, but it's not big. You can go to Jiang's store and ask. His underground fire is quite large, and it is accompanied by Huolin Mine, which is the most suitable underground fire." Zhu Yuling explained.

Lin Bai thanked him and went out to look for Jiang’s shop.

The Jiang family has been making elixirs for generations and have many assets, not only cave dwellings, but also elixirs, magic tools, talismans, and even the ability to refine all kinds of tools.

Moreover, he never cheats his customers and enjoys a very good reputation among casual practitioners.

Lin Bai walked towards Xinyifang South Street and found Jiang's Wanmin Hall.

He showed the sign of the Earth Fire Cave Mansion and introduced Jiang Chun's name, but no one paid much attention to him. Only a female cultivator who practiced Qigong received him.

Lin Bai picked for a long time and finally chose the inferior Fire Scale Sword which was most suitable for the earth fire.

The Fire Scale Sword is dark red in color, and is made of Fire Scale Stone. It has a certain fire element in it, and will generate heat when touched, yet it is not afraid of fire.

But it is not cheap either, two hundred spirit stones, which is half the price of ordinary low-grade sword and knife magic weapons.

"It's too expensive. Two hundred spirit stones, which is equivalent to two medium-grade spirit stones." Lin Bai bargained.

"What's so expensive about it?" The female cultivator frowned. "It's been this price for years. Can you please stop talking nonsense?"

Lin Bai didn't argue any further, nor did he mention Jiang girl. He settled the bill and left.

"Food, shelter, and daily necessities. I finally got some spiritual stones, but in the blink of an eye, they were all taken by the Jiang family!"

Lin Bai didn't dare to curse openly, he could only complain in his heart while walking back home.

He returned to the cave and sat cross-legged on the cushion with the Fire Scale Sword placed on the ground in front of him.

Cover it with your own spiritual consciousness, then connect with it, and then control it with spiritual power.

Soon, the Fire Scale Sword trembled slightly, slowly lifted off the ground, and then circled around him, from slow to fast, gradually turning into a dark red flame.

Lin Bai withdrew his sword with satisfaction, but he still could not feel the surging power of the underground fire.

This kind of thing cannot be rushed, the main thing is to improve your realm.

After that, Lin Bai concentrated on practicing on the stone plate. In his spare time, he summoned fog into fire, imitating and replicating the idea of ​​earth fire.

A month later, Lin Bai went to Fengming Pavilion again to deliver the goods. Senior Zhu Jianyang still hadn't returned, and so did Zhu Yumao.

Two months later, Lin Bai reached the sixth level of Qi training.

When he was practicing Qi at the fifth level, he felt stagnant. After Sister Pei slept with him a few times, the stagnation was gone and his practice improved by leaps and bounds.

Now that he has reached the sixth level of Qi training, his Qi sea has changed slightly, becoming a little bigger, and his spiritual power is also a little more, more than 30% more than when he was at the fifth level of Qi training.

The strength of spiritual consciousness has not changed much, but the control of spiritual power is more from the heart.

After calming down his breath a little, Lin Bai performed a few spells with greater ease.

I stretched my hand over the fire and closed my eyes to feel it, but it seemed a little blurry and I couldn't see clearly.

"Could it be that there is something wrong with the underground fire? The Jiang family's underground fire is underground, and this fire was brought up using a formation. It can certainly be used to refine pills and tools, but it is a little bit difficult to feel its meaning..."

Lin Bai pondered for a while and decided to ask Jiang Chun if he could go underground to take a look.

After packing everything up and taking the prepared semen-retaining pills, Lin Bai went out.

"Brother Jiang." Lin Bai found Jiang Chun and bowed to him.

"How are you, Fellow Daoist Yun... You, you, have you made another breakthrough?" Jiang Chun was surprised to find that Lin Bai had reached the sixth level of Qi training.

It has been less than half a year, which is considered to be very fast. Even for those with excellent qualifications, it takes about half a year to improve one level.

"Thanks." Lin Bai smiled and explained, "I don't know why, but when I was refining the elixir, I felt relaxed and my mind was clear, and I could practice with half the effort! It must be thanks to your precious land."

"So that's how it is." Jiang Chun nodded and understood.

This kind of thing is not uncommon, some people cultivate their minds while refining pills and making talismans, and their cultivation does not fall behind, but improves.

"By the way, Brother Jiang," Lin Bai approached him, "I really like alchemy! When I see the underground fire, I can't help but feel happy! Even my practice becomes smoother! I was wondering if I could take a look at the source of your underground fire? I had a feeling when I broke through, and I think that after seeing the source of the underground fire, my alchemy skills will be able to improve further." As he spoke, Lin Bai took out a bottle of Qi Condensation Pills and stuffed them into his hand, "This is related to the Great Dao, please be flexible."

"My family's underground fire cave has never allowed outsiders to enter, not even family members..." Jiang Chun saw Lin Bai take out another bottle of pills, and he hesitated slightly.

"Brother Jiang, this is the Sperm-Securing Pill that I just learned to make. Please...eh?" Lin Bai then realized that he had taken the wrong one. What he took out was the Tiger and Wolf Pill that Yao Qianyuan had given him.

Jiang Chun had already taken the pill bottle, opened it and smelled it, then looked at Lin Bai meaningfully, nodded, and whispered: "Wait for my letter. Also, don't tell anyone about me."

Lin Bai was at a loss, thinking, what's your problem? Are you weak too?
"Thank you." Lin Bai quickly bowed again.

After bidding farewell to Jiang Chun, Lin Bai went to the street and headed towards Fengming Pavilion.

When they arrived at Fengming Pavilion, Zhu Yuling was not at the counter. Lin Bai asked a familiar waiter and learned that Senior Zhu Jianyang had returned and was chatting with Zhu Yuling upstairs.

After going upstairs and knocking on the door, Zhu Yuling smiled and let Lin Bai in. Then she found that Lin Bai had already reached the sixth level of Qi training, and a different emotion appeared in her eyes.

"Senior, have you had a safe journey?" Lin Bai bowed to Zhu Jianyang and then bowed to Zhu Yuling.

"It's just a journey." Zhu Jianyang stroked his beard and smiled, saying, "It's only been half a year, right? You've made great progress. It's really rare."

"Too fast!" Zhu Yuling also sighed.

Lin Bai could only repeat what he had just said to Jiang Chun as an explanation. "It is indeed rare for someone like you to be in this situation." Zhu Jianyang sighed, "It was the same with Zhu Jianguang back then. His chance of revelation was to refine an extremely complicated elixir, which enabled him to establish his foundation in one fell swoop."

There was approval and expectation in his eyes as he looked at Lin Bai.

Lin Bai felt embarrassed when being stared at, and said, "How could I be here today..."

"Okay, stop saying these polite words." Zhu Jianyang interrupted with a smile and waved his hand, "Come and take a look." He pointed to a calligraphy on the table.

Lin Bai went forward to take a look, and saw only a single word "sword" on the paper. It had neither the feel of silver hooks or iron strokes, nor the sense of roundness. It was obvious that the person who wrote it did not write often and was a rough man.

But face still had to be given, Lin Bai looked closely.

Suddenly, Lin Bai felt his brain pause for a moment, and there seemed to be something else about the word "sword".

The characters are very clean, especially clean and pure, just like a newborn baby, which may look dirty on the outside but is actually spotless and not stained by any filth.

Lin Bai stared at it carefully, and felt that the words seemed to have endless attraction. He could not move his eyes away, and even his body and mind felt it, as if the dust in his heart was brushed away by a whisk.

What exactly does this mean? Where did the person who wrote the words get such pure sword intent? Is the person who wrote the words pure and flawless? Or did he observe something pure and flawless, which gave him this sword intent?
"Hiss..." Just as he was thinking about it, Lin Bai suddenly felt his eyes burning like fire, his head felt extremely heavy, and he felt dizzy and unable to stand steadily.

"Here." Zhu Jianyang nodded gently and said with a smile: "This is Yuanying's handwriting. The sword meaning is profound. Don't look at it for too long."

Nascent Soul?

"Yes." Lin Bai responded quickly, then closed his eyes and concentrated.

After a long time, Lin Bai finally opened his eyes and saw Zhu Jianyang smiling, and so was Zhu Yuling.

"Is this the handwriting of the new Nascent Soul master in Qiaoshan?" Lin Bai was still a little dizzy, so he asked while covering his forehead.

"That's not the case. The Taoist meeting for the newly promoted Yuanying was held for a few days, and I couldn't get close to them." Zhu Jianyang stroked his beard and smiled, with a nostalgic look on his face. "This was written by a senior who came from the south to attend the Taoist meeting. Before that senior achieved Yuanying, he had a friendship with my ancestor. When he learned that my ancestor had passed away, he left a word for me."

Seeing that he was unwilling to talk more about the origin of the Nascent Soul, Lin Bai did not ask any more questions.

Zhu Jianyang rolled it up with a smile, as if it was a treasure.

"Senior, can I take another look?" Lin Bai asked in a low voice.

"You don't practice swordsmanship." Zhu Jianyang stroked his beard and smiled, then unfolded it again, "Five breaths. If you look too much, you will hurt yourself."

"Yes." Lin Bai took a deep breath and slowly moved his eyes over.

This is the second time I have observed this calligraphy, and the purity of its meaning has not diminished, but has become stronger. The person who wrote this calligraphy seems to have a pure heart, and also seems to have experienced all the vicissitudes of life and returned to nature.

Lin Bai was just about to copy it in his mind when he felt as if there were needles pricking his brain and he could not even look straight.

"Don't force it." Zhu Jianyang sent out a stream of spiritual power to protect Lin Bai.

Lin Bai took two steps back, closed his eyes, sat down, and recovered quietly.

Half an hour later, Lin Bai opened his eyes.

"Do you want to see more?" Zhu Jianyang asked with a smile.

"Is it okay?" Lin Bai asked.

"He's not a stranger, so it doesn't matter if he takes a look." Zhu Jianyang was very easy-going.

"Thank you, senior." Lin Bai bowed and went forward to take a look.

The third time he looked at it, Lin Bai seemed to have suffered another heavy blow and sat back.

Closing his eyes and clearing his mind, Lin Bai came to the stone plate.

After a short rest, when the pain in his sea of ​​consciousness gradually subsided, Lin Bai summoned a cloud of mist, which turned into white paper, on which words slowly appeared: Sword.

But it is impossible to form a stroke, it is crooked and has no order.

"Its intention is pure. If it were to draw the sword, how graceful would it be?"

Lin Bai thought about it silently, calmed his mind again, stretched out his hand and tried to imitate the sword intent.

The mist formed into lines and condensed on Lin Bai's fingers. When he was about to put pen to paper, he kept thinking about the pure meaning in his heart.

But as soon as I got started, the fog outside the stone plate began to roll in and I couldn't continue writing.

"My realm is still too low. If I could build my foundation, I would be able to understand three of them."

Lin Bai sighed. But he also gained something. Seeing this pure intention, he had some confidence in the intention of taking the earth fire.

When he opened his eyes, Lin Bai met the smiles of Zhu Jianyang and Zhu Yuling.

"I am sorry for making you laugh at me for no reason." Lin Bai bowed again.

"It's okay. Anyone who sees Yuanying's handwriting will want to take a closer look." Zhu Jianyang was very open-minded. He put the words away and said, "I will have to return this calligraphy to the clan later. If you want to read it again, you have to go to my house."

"Thank you, senior." Lin Bai bowed again.

"You are not a swordsman, so this is of little use to you." Zhu Yuling said with a smile.

"No." Zhu Jianyang spoke, waved his hand, and taught: "Even if you are not a sword cultivator, you can still understand something. All laws and all ways are understood, it all depends on human effort."

Zhu Jianyang was in high spirits and chatted with Lin Bai about spiritual practice and his experiences in spiritual practice. They talked for several hours before he let Lin Bai go.

Lin Bai returned to the cave, closed the door, and started thinking about that word again.

"If Sister Ning saw this, she would probably gain something. Her comprehension of the sword is three points higher than mine, and she is the original master of the Sword Tomb..."

"It's only been three or four months, why hasn't she come down the mountain to see me?"

Lin Bai felt itchy and thought about going to Tianchi Sect to ask tomorrow.

Cultivation is cultivation, but you can't do without men. You can be honest, but you can't keep it to yourself.

Just as I was thinking about it, a spiritual power suddenly came from outside.

"Sister Ning is here?"

Lin Bai opened the door excitedly.

The person who came was indeed a woman, but it was not Pei Ning, but Huang Ruhua.

She's back? Then Brother Yumao should be back too, right?
Lin Bai was a little wary in his heart, but he showed a little surprise on his face, and then said with a smile: "Friend Huang is back? Please come in."
