Li Qingshan, of course, understood the power of a sixth layer qi practitioner. Opening the sea of qi was on par with condensing a yao core. He knew very well how much his strength had increased after condensing a yao core. It was a qualitative change. (《7 *)
But when it came to information about the enemy, it was never too much to know. He also wanted to know how humans were able to fight against the demons. A fifth layer Qi Practitioner like Zhao Liangqing was simply not enough, so he humbly asked, "Please enlighten me, Sir!"
Zhou Wen Bin said, "The strength of humans isn't in their bodies. Otherwise, whether it's their qi or their physique, they won't be able to fight against normal demons. You know this, right?"
Li Qingshan nodded, "The strength of humans is in their use of tools." He deeply remembered what his teacher said in politics class in his previous life. The biggest difference between humans and animals is the invention and use of tools. Even in this world of cultivation, this hasn't changed.
Zhou Wen Bin's eyes lit up, "Well said, but do you feel the importance of tools now? For example, the Wind-entwining Blade on your waist. Do you feel how much it has increased your strength? "
Li Qingshan subconsciously touched the Wind-entwining Blade, then slowly shook his head. Although the Wind-entwining Blade was a good weapon, it wasn't indispensable to him, and it didn't increase his strength in any way.
Zhou Wen Bin said, "Because you haven't truly learned how to use tools? This blade, to you, is just the claws of a beast. You're only using your instincts. Those people of the jianghu who wield blades and swords are actually just slightly stronger beasts. "
Li Qingshan leaned forward, picked up the teapot, and filled Zhou Wen Bin a cup of tea, "May I ask, what is considered a true use of tools?"
"Like this!" A bright light flashed in Zhou Wenbin's eyes. From his wide sleeves, a sword light that was as powerful as a dragon flew out. It moved around him at lightning speed, sometimes low, sometimes flying high, drawing a continuous arc of light. 《《
Under the afternoon sun, the blade reflected a bright light that flickered beside the two of them.
The sword light soared into the sky, shuttling through the green willow trees. The willow leaves fell like rain, but before the 'rain' could fall, the sword light flashed and nailed hundreds of willow leaves to the tree trunks.
Zhou Wenbin pointed his finger, and the sword light moved again. It streaked across the calm surface of the pond like an extremely sharp pair of scissors, cutting the surface of the water. Then, it suddenly disappeared from the surface of the water. The next moment, it passed through the duckweed on the shore and returned to Zhou Wenbin's sleeve.
Li Qingshan was dazzled by the sight. If he did not transform into his fiendish demon form, there was no way he could block such a sword. He had once witnessed the terror of a flying sword assassination in the Dragon's Gate Sect's Ancestral Hall. However, that flying sword had no one controlling it. It only knew how to fly in a straight line, so he did not have a deep enough understanding of the terror of flying swords.
Only now did he understand that when he encountered a true flying sword, he had no chance of clashing head-on with it. This was because without the restraint of a human body, the nimbleness of a flying sword had surpassed the profound swordsmanship of any supreme swordsman.
It was possible to imagine that if a flying sword like that stabbed towards him, if he could not hit the lightning-fast flying sword in a single strike, it would be like a snake, wriggling into his heart. He would not even be able to reach the enemy. He would not even have the chance to risk his life against the enemy.
Unless you could withstand the sharpness of the flying sword, or be faster than the speed of the flying sword, but not many people could do that. This was the true use of tools, and it was what humans relied on to suppress the Magical Beasts.
He had basically seen this method of using tools in the hands of the Soaring Dragon Elder of the Sword Collection palace. Zhou Wenbin's sword obviously paled in comparison to the Soaring Dragon Elder's sword. However, due to the great difference in strength, the sword was like rain and the sword Qi was like a rainbow, capable of splitting mountains and splitting the earth.
His mind was filled with the terrifying, undefeatable power, so he failed to understand the ingenuity and terror of flying swords. He was not as shocked and surprised as he was right now. The reason why he was even more shocked was that he could also use tools like this. The Sacred Hall
Zhou Wenbin said, "Using tools is a rather common way of saying it. More accurately, it's called 'controlling artifacts'. Swords are relatively common spiritual artifacts. There are thousands of spiritual artifacts in the world. They can be used to kill enemies, to defend against enemies, or to enchant minds. In short, there are thousands of ways to use them. As long as you have enough true qi, you won't have to worry about your limbs being restrained anymore. You can use many spiritual artifacts at the same time, and killing people will be as easy as pie. "
"All of this requires you to open your four yin and yang meridians and balance them. Then you can open your Girdle meridian and open up a sea of yin and yang in your body. There's even a saying that only Qi Practitioners who have opened up a sea of qi are truly Qi Practitioners and have embarked on the path of cultivation. Anyway, it's extremely easy for a sixth layer Qi Practitioner to kill a fifth layer Qi Practitioner. "
In other words, a measly first layer Qi Practitioner like you can forget about it. Even if you're skilled in body tempering, you definitely won't be Zhuo Zhibo's opponent.
Li Qingshan was completely convinced. "I see. Thank you for your advice, sir. However, the reason why I chose to stay wasn't because I don't know my limits."
The two of them looked at each other in silence. One was determined, the other was suspicious.
Zhou Wen Bin said, "Since you insist, I won't say anymore. If you need any help, you can find me at the yamen. However, you're still Zhuo Zhibo's subordinate, and I can't fall out with Zhuo Zhibo because of you. You have to take care of yourself."
Li Qingshan smiled. "Of course."
Li Qingshan's relaxed attitude made Zhou Wen Bin wonder if he was mistaken. Could it be that this kid really has a powerful background?
"Right now, there's one thing I'd like to ask for your help with. Where can I learn the art of controlling spiritual artifacts?" After seeing Zhou Wen Bin's display, Li Qingshan's heart was moved. He suddenly remembered the hiltless sword he found in Zhao Liangqing's hundred treasures pouch last night. It seemed like Zhao Liangqing had prepared it for the sixth layer. Now that it was in his hands, of course he would make full use of it.
Zhou Wen Bin looked at him deeply. "Do you really think the sixth layer is that easy to break through?"
Li Qingshan said, "I'll try my best." His eyes were filled with great confidence. At the very least, from the perspective of a daemon, he had already reached that level.
Zhou Wen Bin did not comment. All he said was, "Everyone in the cultivation world knows about regular artifact controlling spiritual artifacts. There's no harm in teaching you beforehand."
Li Qingshan asked curiously, "Are there other unusual spiritual artifacts?"
Zhou Wen Bin said, "The Sword Collection palace has a special technique for controlling swords. It's not controlling spiritual artifacts, but swords. The Umbral Yin sect has techniques for controlling ghosts, using ghosts as artifacts. There are also some demonic paths that refine and control corpses, using corpses as artifacts. Every single sect's techniques for controlling spiritual artifacts have their own uniqueness. It's impossible for me to know everything. "
The Umbral Yin sect's techniques for controlling ghosts! Li Qingshan's heart skipped a beat. He thought about the page he had obtained from the witch. Was it not the Umbral Yin Ghost Control? There must be some connection between the two. If he understood the witch's origins, he might be able to understand Little Ann's origins too. He asked in a hurry, "Where's the Umbral Yin sect?"
To the cultivators of the Green province, this was common knowledge that they needed to know, so Zhou Wen Bin explained it casually. He did not notice the strange expression on Li Qingshan's face.
Li Qingshan, on the other hand, memorized the words, "The southernmost lands, the Abyss of Ten Thousand Ghosts". This was the first time he had learnt about the supreme sects of the Green province. However, Zhou Wen Bin did not say much about it, nor did he ask.
He was still not strong enough. He could not go to such a distant place. Little Ann had not thought of so many things yet. He had not recovered his body yet … Under these countless reasons lurked a selfish thought. He did not want Little Ann to leave his side! He did not want to become a lonely person again!
Although it was laughable, he was a tyrannical fellow that could transform into a twenty-foot tall demon that could crush people as easily as crushing ants. His heart was the same as an ordinary person – he hated loneliness.
Thus, when he had the chance to pry into Little Ann's origins for the first time, he was not as resolute as before.
The sunlight was sliced into pieces by the knife-like willow leaves, sprinkling over the youth's body. He was not particularly handsome, but a rare trace of confusion appeared on his bronze face. However, he immediately became determined. He decided to stick to the agreement and let nature take its course.
Zhou Wen Bin slowly explained the methods of controlling spiritual artifacts. The principles were not complicated, but it had absolute requirements for one's cultivation realm. After opening the sea of qi, although Qi Practitioners could not simply communicate with the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, they were still progressing in this direction. They could begin to sense all sorts of spiritual objects.
Of course, all things had spiritual energy. Flowers and grass were no exception. However, the higher the spiritual energy, the stronger the sense. Moreover, they could not control flowers and grass to attack their enemies. Qi Practitioners would choose a kind of spiritual artifact and use their true qi to purify it day and night until they formed a subtle connection and connection with the spiritual artifact. Then, they could control it from a distance, like turning themselves into a magnet to control iron.
Li Qingshan expressed his gratitude. The more common sense it was, the more helpful it was to him. Because if it could be accepted as common sense by Qi Practitioners, it was an indispensable foundation. He was born in the wilderness. He did not have a master or a sect, so he had no chance to learn systematically.
Zhou Wen Bin stroked his beard and smiled. "Is it just empty talk?"
Li Qingshan was startled. Was this person planning to accept bribes?
Zhou Wen Bin hinted, "You should have gained quite a bit last night, like silver or something?" Li Qingshan had stolen the procuress' hundred treasures pouch. Of course, it did not escape Zhou Wen Bin's eyes.
Li Qingshan's eyes widened. "You are a county magistrate, a sixth layer Qi Practitioner. You rule over hundreds of thousands of people. You actually want money from a poor kid like me?"
Zhou Wen Bin said, "Why so loud? It's not like I want it for free. Because there are too many people, there are too many places to spend money. You have no use for that silver. Why don't you give it to me? I'll exchange it with Qi Gathering Pills. "
Li Qingshan was surprised. "Why?" Of course he was willing to use silver to buy Qi Gathering Pills. Unless he really wanted to buy girls, silver was really not of much use to him.
