Chapter 144: The Curse of the Flesh
Six peaks of Pengshan, Han Jianmen.
In the early spring, the breeze is warm and the vitality is full of vitality. The insects and birds are singing. Pengshan is also full of vitality. In addition to practicing, the disciples of Liufeng also occasionally go out for a trip. Traveling in the scenic Pengshan area can also be regarded as a boring practice life.
Sometimes, disciples from each peak will go to other peaks to explore friends and drink tea to discuss the Tao.
Jiang Heng, an inner disciple of Yujian Peak, and Chen Tuo, an inner disciple of Wuzun Peak, came to the weapon refining peak together, obviously to come to Xu You for a drink.
However, the two of them called in front of Xu You's cave mansion for a few times without any response.
"Could it be that Junior Brother Xu is not here?" Jiang Heng glanced at Chen Tuo, who was carrying two wine jars and shook his head and said, "I didn't have been here the day before yesterday, yesterday, and why didn't I be here today? Why is Junior Brother Xu mysterious recently? Why don't you ask and see what's going on?"
Jiang Heng shook his head. He didn't even know about Xu You's friends, so how could anyone else know?
"I understand!" At this time, Jiang Heng slapped his forehead and suddenly realized: "It must be with Junior Sister Lin. During these days, they both often go in and out. I think in a few years, they will probably become Taoist couples."
Chen Tuo was stunned and felt that what Jiang Heng said made sense.
"Since that's the case, then we won't disturb Junior Brother Xu and Junior Sister Lin's discussion about the romantic relationship. Let's go, let's drink it, otherwise it would be a pity for these jars of good wine."
Not long after the two left, Lin Xueqiao came.
She couldn't knock on Xu You's cave door, so she couldn't make it for a while, so she could only stomp her feet and turn around and leave.
It was not until these people left that the closed cave door opened a crack. Inside, Xu You sneakily looked at it, then quickly closed the door and murmured to himself: "Everyone has finally left."
Inside the cave, Ghost Seal looked at Xu You who was inside without saying a word, and someone knocked on the door, shook his head and said, "Why do you have to do this? You have been hiding for a few days. Isn't it just a little curse of the body, and maybe it will fade away on its own in a few days. Why should you avoid seeing people?"
While speaking, Gui Yin kept staring at the back of Xu You's butt, with a smile on his seemingly calm expression.
The ghost seal is actually laughing.
If Yue Longcheng saw this scene, he would definitely be shocked. With his understanding of Ghost Seal, this person was extremely calm and did not understand what laughter was.
But now the Ghost Seal is indeed laughing.
This matter has to be talked about two days ago. Xu You is obsessed with the method of refining weapons, and he never practices according to the rules and is unique. This way, many accidents have occurred.
It is common for failure to refine weapons. I don’t know how much material I spent for this, even the ghost seal was shocked. Xu You consumed much more materials than the inner disciples of the thirty weapon refining peaks. More than a month after returning to the sect from Chiyue Mountain, all the materials Xu You had accumulated and the contribution points he accumulated were consumed.
It is no exaggeration to say that Xu You is simply the best among prodigal sons.
Ghost Seal doesn't know how to refine weapons, but fortunately he has some vision, and it can be seen that Xu You is looking for a breakthrough in this kind of high-intensity refinement.
Just like the tail behind Xu You's butt at this moment, it was an extremely rare "physical curse".
That is, the Ghost Seal is knowledgeable and has heard from a senior from the Artifact Refining Peak that if the magical powers that the weapon refined are too rare and against the sky when refining weapons, the chance of failure will be greatly increased. Once it fails, not only will all the materials be scrapped, but the weapon refiner will also be cursed by a kind of power of the heavenly way.
There are obviously many types of curses, just like the tail of a long-tailed monkey growing behind Xu You's butt. It's nearly seven feet long, which is longer than Xu You's height.
It was because of the failure of refining the weapon, and the curse of the body and the tail grew, Xu Youcai was "shy" to see people and hid and did not go out.
Fortunately, I heard from someone that this kind of physical curse will not last long. It can be as short as three or five days, and as long as one month or two months, the power of the curse will fade, and the weapon refiner will not have any sequelae. So there is no need to worry about this. Instead, the ghost seal is very curious about what magic weapon Xu You was refining before, and he could be punished by the way of heaven.
You know, in the entire Han Jian Sect, there has been no record of a weapon refiner being punished by heaven and being possessed by a physical curse.
However, the Ghost Seal is not a weapon refiner, so I can't see how Xu You refines weapons. As for Xu You, naturally, it would not be about the Ghost Seal. He originally planned to borrow the blood of fate to strengthen the "body-strengthening magical power".
After all, Xu You knew that his physical body could not be cultivated. Although he was blessed by magical instruments, this could not change the fact that his physical body was "weak".
The body is weak, but the others are fine, but they are difficult to live forever.
You should know that when a monk asks for cultivation, the first thing he pursues is immortality. For millions of years, as long as a monk is, he almost yearns for immortality.
The same is true for Xu You.
He was unable to practice before, but in the eyes of others, it was equivalent to cutting off the possibility of immortality.
But Xu You didn't think so.
Others may have to accept their fate, but Xu You thinks everything is possible, just like when he just got the Tianlong Lock Spirit Curse, everyone thought he was finished.
But as a result, even if Xu You cannot practice, he can still compete with those monks who have practiced for many years or even decades with his magical weapons.
If you are talking about it, to be honest, Xu You really doesn't want anyone now. Xu You can already dominate the outer sect. The number one in the outer sect and the heroes of the Six Peaks is not worth mentioning in Xu You. Even if he is a master of the Six Peaks inner sect, or even some weak elders, Xu You is not afraid at all when he fights.
But not all monks pay attention to supernatural powers and cannot live forever. Ten years later, twenty years later, and thirty years later, the monks who can practice the great way will remain the same. They will definitely have weak physical bodies and their lifespans are not long.
This is the sorrow of mortals.
Why can monks be superior? First, they are supernatural powers, and second, they are to have a life span that lasts longer than mortals.
So Xu You wanted to use his own method to solve this problem. Originally, Xu You wanted to ask for a mysterious voice, but the other party hadn't spoken for a long time.
Based on Xu You's current insight, we can probably guess that this mysterious sound is a kind of residual "mind power". All things pay attention to the balance of yin and yang, and themind power cannot exist forever. Over time, themind power will definitely dissipate, and even if it does not dissipate, it will weaken.
Xu You was still a little frightened at that time, but after a few days, he got used to it.
The origin of the mysterious voice is a mystery, and the way of refining weapons is unimaginable. But he just said it, but he didn't want to say it. No matter how Xu You asked, it would be useless. Therefore, Xu You still knows nothing about the mysterious voice.
Now the mysterious voice suddenly disappeared, and Xu You guessed that either the mind power dissipated or fell asleep to restore the mind power.
No matter which one, Xu You cannot get help from the mysterious voice now. It is precisely because of this that Xu You did things in a mess that he was cursed by the physical body because of his failure to refine his weapon.
Before, Xu You had a sudden idea that his body-strengthening magical powers could enhance physical fitness, strength, speed, and reaction ability, but he could not increase his life span.
So Xu You used the "Blood of Destiny" to corrupt some materials, and wanted to strengthen the magical powers of the body to see if he could produce magical powers such as "life-enhancing".
