Wet viviparity

Chapter 90: Confidential, Reverse Palm Training

At first they saw the golden boy sitting cross-legged, more than ten feet off the ground, still going up, as if he were flying into the sky in broad daylight. Everyone felt as if they had seen a ghost.

The boys who were playing music stopped the music, and the delicate boys who were serving at the banquet were trembling with fear.

Wei Wu Lan's eyes bulged as he looked at the area more than ten feet below Ji Ming's buttocks. He seemed to have figured out something, but his expression became even more solemn.

The most shocking one was the old ape.

As the saying goes, laymen watch the excitement, while experts watch the doorway. He understood the "magic skill" that Ji Ming was performing at this moment better than anyone else at the table.

A stone appeared in the old ape's hand. He flicked his finger and the stone flew out into the air and hit the air under Ji Ming. It stayed there and could not move forward any further.

Ji Ming landed gently and took back the energy that was supporting his body.

"Crane Control Technique!"

Said the old ape.

Ji Ming was a little surprised. He had never revealed what he had learned in front of Old Ape, but there were many secret skills in the world that could release energy, and Old Ape actually guessed this one at a glance.

"How did the old ape guess that?"

"There are many secret skills that can be used to cultivate air-through-the-sky energy, but the only one that can be used to both attack and absorb energy that I know of is the Crane Controlling Skill of Taiping Mountain."

After saying this, he paused for a moment and said, "If I'm not mistaken, the energy you release is strong, fierce, and powerful. It can subdue a tiger and lift heavy objects. I'm afraid that your crane-controlling skill has reached perfection, and you are qualified to learn the "One-qi Great Capturing Hand" from Taiping Mountain."

"A powerful grappling technique?"

Ji Ming was a little embarrassed. To be honest, he still didn't know which spell was above the Controlling Crane Technique. Taoist Feihu never told him these things because he was afraid that he would be distracted.

After all, magic is something that is only involved in the second or even third level of Qi Refining.

In order to ensure that he would not practice cultivation before his bones and muscles were strengthened, even the book on the secret art of controlling cranes was not given to him until he arrived at the Huoxu Cave on Zirong Peak.

"Oh, right, that secret book."

Ji Ming suddenly remembered the secret book in his bag, which he seemed to have rarely read.

According to Taoist Feihu's mysterious nature, there might be something hidden in it. Perhaps it was a method of covering up. I was extremely negligent this time.

Ji Ming looked at Wei Wulan, thinking of the secret technique he had practiced, and asked, "Brother Wei once said that the magic skills cultivated through the secret techniques also have different levels of superiority. I wonder how my technique compares to yours?"

After Ji Ming showed this skill, Wei Wulan seemed to know him all over again. After a long while, he said, "They should be on par with each other."

Thinking that Ji Ming had just started practicing, he explained carefully: "As for ordinary spells, they are like those spiritual instruments without any spiritual power, and they will never have the potential to be upgraded to magic treasures.

And the extraordinary spells, like the treasure, have the potential to be refined again."

"What is the spell again?"

"Supernatural power!"

It was Elder Yuan who answered, "Master, as one of the descendants of Zhongtian, is extremely noble, but it was also because of a magical power that he became a real person who resided in Zirong Peak of Jiheng Mountain."

"I know." Ling Gu raised her hand excitedly and said, "Sister Su Su said that this magical power can draw a line on the ground to form a prison, shrink the ground to an inch, and is called 'the sky is round and the earth is square'."

The old ape smiled at Ling Gu and nodded, saying, "Yes, that is exactly the magical power."

After three rounds of wine and five dishes, everyone gradually relaxed, laughter started to rise, and the old man's eyes showed a stronger sense of closeness to Ji Ming.

In the eyes of Old Ape, every practitioner is not an independent individual.

As the saying goes, there is always a mountain higher than the other. If you want to avoid being crushed by a higher mountain, you can only live comfortably in the world by carefully managing your own relationships and connections.

The kind of solitary life, devoted to hard practice, as if living in the void, is not the path that Yuan Lao appreciates and agrees with, and he does not think that this path will work.

It's ridiculous that they think they can live in emptiness when they can't even live for three days.

The current Jin Tong has just been in Zirong Peak for over a year. He has already made friends with Wei Wulan and himself, and has shown his face in front of the master. He is making steady progress step by step, and his future is indeed promising.

Moreover, Old Yuan had a hunch that this golden boy would always be able to give him surprises at the right time.

He was already thinking in his heart that he had to find a time to propose to the master that Jintong be allowed to live in Huoxu Cave, as a favor to add icing on the cake.

Back in the quiet house, Ji Ming took out the book on controlling cranes.

This book was not a thread-bound book, but a roll of cloth. When it was unfolded, it was a seven or eight foot long scroll with pictures and text on it. Ji Ming sat in front of the scroll, holding a candlestick in his hand, and toasting the scroll.

After baking for a long time, there was no abnormality in the scroll. Ji Ming shook his head and laughed.

He felt that he was really insane. Even if the Taoist Feihu wanted to test him, he would not use such a low-level method as 'roasting with fire and drowning in water to reveal the secret'!
Thinking of this, Ji Ming poured a bowl of water on the cloth.

The clear water quickly soaked the cloth, and the secret words, graphics, and even annotations on it disappeared one by one, replaced by other words.

Ji Ming stared at the words on the scroll for a moment before he complained, "How boring!"

Then, carefully read the words on the silk:

'My disciple, I believe that you have already started practicing secret skills and have been reading the scroll all day long, so you can understand my tricks and see the confidential words on the scroll.

This is not an attempt to be mysterious, but a test of your determination to pursue the Tao.

If you are on the peak, only caring about enjoying yourself in the building, and neglecting the practice of the small Zhoutian and its secret skills, these words will only add to your troubles. '

Seeing this, Ji Ming felt a little helpless. His master probably could not have expected such a situation for him. This arrangement was just for show to the blind.

'Given your qualifications, your teacher does not need to worry about whether you can be appreciated by the master and be taught the Tao.

The only thing I am worried about is whether you can fully stimulate the Ren and Du meridians before tying your hair and achieve the Qi Flower.

"Hair tied?"

Ji Ming touched the two small buns on his head.

The man had his hair tied up at the age of fifteen and was sent here at the age of twelve. He achieved Qihua in just one year, which means that he completed the goal set by the Taoist master two years ahead of schedule.

Ji Ming read on and saw that the next part would mention the method of concealment!

'In the assessment of Taoists, there are two tests: Taoist scriptures and deciphering talismans.

Taoist scriptures include Taoist classics such as "Sanyuan Xiaozai Jie'e Chan", "Zhongtian Zhangben", and "Cangtian Daoqi Zhu". There is no need to read them carefully, just memorize them.

And the talismans that can be interpreted are mostly small Zhoutian talismans, which do not require any profound fasting or prayer rituals. They can be interpreted with the Fengtu fasting and prayer rituals popular among ordinary people.

The better to take this kind of Taoist assessment sooner rather than later, I hope you will redouble your efforts, calm down and cultivate your character, study the Taoist scriptures in the building, and learn a few rituals.

The last paragraph of the text records the merit of the reverse practice of controlling the crane. Only by achieving a qi flower can the physical body be protected from going astray easily after the reverse practice.

If it has been achieved, just practice the two palms in reverse to transform into a monster.

Remember, you cannot cultivate too deeply to the point of reversing your entire body, otherwise it will become irreversible and you will turn from a human into a monster.'

"It's still reverse training after all."

Ji Ming felt quite heavy-hearted. Just by looking at Wei Wulan he knew how dangerous this situation was.

However, if one wants to be free from the threat of Suluozi once and for all, obtaining the status of a Taipingshan Taoist is only the first step.

Going further up, there is the great test for Taoists in the second realm of Qi Refining. Only after passing this test can one be considered to have some weight in the Taiping Mountain headquarters.

Later, even if Suluozi discovered his identity as a celestial being, he did not dare to take action openly due to the strict laws on Taiping Mountain.

'All arrangements have been implemented in the square.

Now I just need to wait for you to complete your mission, write a confession letter, and throw it into the Jing River at the foot of Jiheng Mountain, and the gods will deliver it to me.'

When Ji Ming saw this, he felt much relieved.

Taoist Feihu has been governing Hemingfang for many years, so his methods are naturally superb. I believe he had arranged this matter many years ago, and was just waiting for Ji Ming to take office.

The only thing to worry about is how many years the old Taoist has left to live.

This matter is somewhat taboo, and Ji Ming did not dare to ask the Taoist priest for confirmation.

However, seeing that the old Taoist has set the minimum age for achieving Qi Hua at fifteen, I believe this is a mature consideration based on his own deadline.

His eyes fell on the end of the text, and an article about reverse training came into view, which made him immersed in it.

"When the pine crane exhales, auspicious colors spread everywhere, falling into the hundreds of bones and transforming into the shapes of hundreds of birds."
