Great Red Immortal Sect

Chapter 35: Granting Seal
There have been constant fights in the past few years, and four years have passed in a flash.

Liu Xiaowen is eighteen years old. He has reached the late stage of fetal breathing and is currently in seclusion to break through the Qi Refining stage.

Under pressure from the surrounding areas, everyone in the sect has been practicing hard over the years, and their cultivation has improved significantly.

Xu Xuan has broken through to the seventh level of Qi training, Wen Sian has entered the fifth level of Qi training, Wang Qiyun has broken through to the second level of Qi training, and even Zhang Gaoxia, who is busy with the spiritual field, has reached the late stage of fetal breathing and is not far from Qi training.

Now the number of outer disciples has increased again and is gradually returning to its previous size.

Under the supervision of Jiang Chiyu, the Baishi mine was dug deeper and deeper, and another vein of [Warm Heart Jade] was discovered. It was a relatively good jade for Qi Refining, and its value was similar to [Blood Fire Essence Iron]. The sect had another income.

Liu Xiaowen is currently in seclusion in a cave on Tianqing Peak. In front of him is a jade slip, which is the fourth-grade martial art of his sect, "The Heavenly Fire Eternal Light Sutra".

This technique has flaws in the post-Qi Refining stage, requiring the practice of someone with a special destiny and luck. Only Wen Fufeng had mastered it in the previous generation, and now he's the only one in the sect who can practice it.

To break through the Qi Refining stage with this technique, one needs [Heavenly Fire Qi]. One must condense sunlight and use a bronze mirror to obtain fire on the Bingwu day of May every year. Do this for six years and you will obtain a wisp of Heavenly Fire Qi.

Naturally, this valve had been prepared for him long ago, and now he only needed to use it to make a breakthrough.

This volume of "The Sutra of Eternal Light of Heavenly Fire" belongs to the Bing Fire sect. The third-grade "The Art of Crossing the Fire Without Crossing" in the sect is a simplified version of it. Whether it is the secret technique or the magic of the immortal foundation, it is far inferior to the "Sutra of Eternal Light of Heavenly Fire".

Refining that [Heavenly Fire Energy], silently following the Qi circulation route of the exercises, the Qi sea gradually opened up, the spiritual platform became clear, the sea of consciousness was generated, and everything went smoothly.

Liu Xiaowen only felt that the nature of his magic power had changed, his consciousness was rising, and he vaguely sensed something extremely large and bright. A golden fire descended from above and landed on him, and then he broke through.

Xu Xuan was waiting on the peak for Liu Xiaowen to come out of retreat. In his qi sea, the ancient seal character [Yang Sui Jiang Huo] on the white jade stele was vibrating.

The sky is clear and the sun is shining brightly, with thousands of golden rays of light shining down.

Liu Xiaowen officially broke through to the Qi Refining stage. Now there are five Qi Refining cultivators in the sect. When Xu Xuan establishes his foundation, the sect will be able to regain its former glory.

At that moment, a red cloud was seen falling in front of Juzhen Palace. Liu Xiaowen had already come out of retreat. He was wearing a dark black Taoist robe, with a nimble figure and a happy look on his face.

"Master, I have already broken through the Qi Refining stage, and I am also practicing the Heavenly Fire Eternal Light Sutra."

Liu Xiaowen stepped forward and saluted. Over the years, he had grown to be as tall as Xu Xuan, and many matters in the sect were handled by him on behalf of Xu Xuan. Now, most of the monsters coming from Dongmi were killed by Liu Xiaowen.

"Your breakthrough to Qi Refining is a great joy to our sect. Come with me to the Ancestral Hall to burn some incense. I have something to tell you."

He was just planning to give the seal script of [Yang Sui Jiang Huo] to Liu Xiaowen, but he wanted to conceal a few things.

When the two of them arrived at the Ancestral Hall, Xu Xuan only said that there might be something unusual later and asked Liu Xiao not to tell anyone.

After entering the hall, Liu Xiaowen stepped forward to burn incense and pay his respects. On the other side, Xu Xuan activated the seal script and transferred it to Liu Xiaowen.

There was nothing magical about this process. The ancient seal of [Yang Sui Jiang Huo] disappeared with a cloud of clear air on Xu Xuan's side, and arrived in Liu Xiaowen's sea of consciousness in the next moment.

Xu Xuan felt that he had established some kind of connection with Liu Xiaowen, and he seemed to be able to glimpse the changes in Liu Xiaowen's sea of consciousness.

The ancient seal first transformed into a stream of golden fire, and then into a concave bronze mirror with a golden sun engraved on it. It then attracted the light of the sky and gradually produced a golden flame.

"[Yang Sui descends fire], be close to all fires, capture light and gather flames, and practice while bathing in the sun. Accompanied by [Great Sun Brilliant Fire], burn away evil and refine evil, and progress as your cultivation progresses."

Xu Xuan and Liu Xiaowen both had an epiphany in their hearts, and naturally understood the function of this seal script. They could get close to all kinds of flames, collect fire and control fire at will, and bathing in sunlight could accelerate the growth of their cultivation.

This ancient seal was accompanied by a great sun-glowing fire, which was like Liu Xiaowen's natal object. It was still at the Qi Refining level, but in terms of its magical power it was far superior to the Earthly Evil Fire.

This kind of spiritual water and spiritual fire that combines fighting techniques and cultivation is extremely precious in the world, not to mention that this spiritual fire can also grow with the cultivation level. If Liu Xiaowen breaks through the foundation building stage, the power of this spiritual fire will be comparable to the top magical instruments in the foundation building stage, and it will be even more magical.

At this time, the seal characters in Xu Xuan's sea of consciousness also became brighter. To be precise, the four-character ancient seal characters [Xuan Jiao Xing Lei] were lit up. They were a little blurry in the past, but now they are completely revealed. Xu Xuan also understands their function.

As for the seal characters of [Sword Rises from the Abyss], they are still blurry, and it is obvious that the function has not yet been fully revealed.

"[Mysterious Dragon Walking Thunder], driving away thunder and lightning, being close to the lightning, with blood and energy filled like a dragon, achieving [Thunder Clouds in the Sky], raising spiritual essence, guiding relatives, emulating the Thunder Department."

This seal script has now fully exerted its function. Before, it only allowed Xu Xuan to get closer to the nature of thunder, but now its full appearance is revealed.

First, it can increase Xu Xuan's thunder-controlling power, and it also cleanses his muscles and bones, making his body strong and his blood full, like a dragon, which is not inferior to some Taoist schools that specialize in body training.

As for the thunderclouds in the sky, they are different from the spiritual fire. They can attract all spirits, monsters and demons that are related to thunder, and use them as the Thunder Department to manifest different mysteries.

The first thing to enter the thundercloud now was actually the [Dan Ting]. This magic sword had been blessed with the immortal energy of the Immortal Master Tifengshan, and now it had become spiritual, transforming into a thunderbird and disappearing into the thundercloud in the sky.

Xu Xuan only felt that as [Dan Ting] was guided, the purple thunder in the sea of ​​qi merged with the sword energy, and the state of sword energy entering the life mentioned by his master was achieved in this way. Now he can freely use thunder to wield sword energy, and the two are mixed into one.

Then came the sleeping thunderworm, entering the thundercloud and drawing lightning. It connected with Xu Xuan's mind, like many more hands emerging to drive away the thunder. This insect had already regained the magical powers recorded in "Wonderful Gu Wu Tan" and had even taken it a step further.

"This ancient stele, it seems I underestimated it."

The magic of the seal script far exceeded Xu Xuan's imagination. Even the Purple Mansion spiritual weapon would be difficult to compare. Xu Xuan was now confident that if he continued to practice, with the help of that thunder cloud, he would be able to compete with the direct descendants of the Purple Mansion and even reach the foundation building stage.

"This is, Master?"

Liu Xiaowen felt the changes in his body and looked at Xu Xuan in panic. Xu Xuan said softly:
"The secret treasures passed down by the sect must not be revealed, otherwise there will be a fatal disaster."

Now Xu Xuan only felt that the ancient stele was connected to Liu Xiaowen's life. He could use it to conceal the vision, so that even if Liu Xiaowen's soul was searched and taken away, he could not speak or think, and he was not afraid of others snooping.

Liu Xiaowen didn't ask any more questions and agreed with a serious expression. He had been practicing in the mountains since he was a child and believed in Xu Xuan's words. He knew the matter well.

"Now that you've achieved the Qi Refining breakthrough, have you decided which peak to climb?"

Xu Xuan gave some more instructions and then asked Liu Xiaowen which peak he was going to take charge of.

As a true disciple, once one reaches the stage of Qi Refining, one can choose a peak in Luoqing to cultivate. Wang Qiyun was in charge of Dangxia Peak on behalf of Wang Xiwei. There were still a few unused peaks in Luoqing, so Liu Xiaowen was supposed to take care of them.

"Disciple has already made up his mind and is ready to go to Shuanghui Peak."

Shuanghui Peak was the former residence of the elder Wen Fuyi who was in charge of law. Now the rules of the sect are managed by Xu Xuan himself.

"It's a good place. You should consolidate your cultivation and go get a Red Fruit. You might be the successor to the position of Elder of Law in the future."

After saying that, Xu Xuan asked Liu Xiaowen to visit some elders first and meet his senior brother.

"Speaking of which, it seems Shen Shu in Qiyun is about to give birth? If it happens soon, it would be a double blessing."

When Liu Xiao heard Tengyun leave, Xu Xuan returned to the hall to continue observing the wonders of this thundercloud.

But after the joy, Xu Xuan looked inward again and found that a stream of clear air had fallen on the strange blood flower at some point.

Black spots appeared again, gradually covering his qi sea.
