Luck taken away? It doesn't matter, I quietly become a god

Chapter 454: Cultivation progress is slow...

After the first month of adaptation, Rong Shu and other freshmen quickly immersed themselves in their practice.

Because Rong Shu and the others received special "one-on-one training", their schedules were no longer unified, and they also tacitly agreed not to go out early and come back late together anymore.

Everyone has his or her own path of spiritual practice.

Rong Shu taught himself to make talismans in the evening, and during the day, he was either meditating or studying the "Nine-Character Mantra". If there were classes in Ziguiyuan that day, he would go to attend the classes and then visit the chief of Jiuxiao.

The courses taught by the teachers in the academy are very different.

Some discuss the Dao;

Some tell history;

Some practice feeding moves;

Some displayed magical powers...

However, teachers will not specifically teach professions such as formation, alchemy, weapon refining, talisman making, puppet making... in class.

Students who want to improve their skills and abilities can go to the Eight Wonders Gate of the academy to practice in seclusion.

The Eight Qimen contains the lingering memories of all the famous formation and weapon refining masters from ancient times to the present.

Those residual thoughts are not souls, and they have no consciousness. They only repeat the various methods and techniques used by their owners when they were alive when refining pills and making talismans.

Students can learn by observing closely, identify gaps and improve their abilities.

In order to learn how to make talismans, Rong Shu went to the Eight Qimen alone at Duan Yuyan's suggestion, and successfully got a glimpse of the various miraculous talisman-making techniques of his "ancestors".

After only one visit, Rong Shu felt as if his "Ren and Du meridians" were opened up. After trying to imitate the "brush-wielding posture" of his ancestors, the stagnation he had felt when drawing talismans suddenly disappeared for the most part.

"How did the Eight Qimen...preserve the regrets of our ancestors?"

"Although we can only observe and learn, it depends on each person's comprehension..."

Rong Shu was very moved.

What do monks lack most?

Besides talent, there are resources!

Being able to observe and learn from the various practices of our ancestors is undoubtedly an invaluable resource! Its value is immeasurable!

Of course, the magic of the Eight Qimen means that not all students can observe and learn it without any barriers.

Freshmen like Rong Shu are allowed to go to Baqimen for observation and study for one day every month for the first sixty years after entering school. If they do not go that month, they can accumulate it to the next month. This is also convenient for some students who have been in seclusion for many years.

Sixty years later, when one has lost the identity of a freshman, one can only rely on one's own strength to fight for a place in the Eight Qimen for observation. Students like those who are on the Millennium Dragon and Tiger List can enter the Eight Qimen for seven days of observation and study every month.

Becoming the chief disciple of a generation will grant the academy great privileges, such as the Eight Qimen, where the chief disciple can enter without restrictions to observe and learn.

Rong Shu is now a freshman and the top of this year's group of heroes. He has two opportunities to observe the Eight Qimen every month.

In the first month, Rong Shu spent two consecutive days observing the regrets of a certain talisman-making master, and the effect was very significant.

"What kind of inheritance did you obtain in the Tianjiao Tower?"

After Rong Shu had finished practicing with Chief Jiuxiao again and had adjusted his breathing, he was about to say goodbye when he heard these words.

Rong Shu replied: "It is an ancient magical skill..."

Jiuxiao raised his hand, interrupting Rong Shu's next words: "Since it is an ancient magical power, it must be extremely difficult to practice. Have you gained anything in the past few days?"

"No." Rong Shu shook his head and smiled bitterly.

She even got started in making talismans.

But Rong Shu was at a loss as to how to comprehend and apply the Nine-Character Mantra.

The ancient texts existing in the sea of ​​consciousness are too complicated and profound, and Rong Shu is still trying to figure out and digest them word by word.

At present, Rong Shu only knew that in order to speed up his comprehension of the Nine-Character Mantra, he could draw the purple air from the east into his body at the moment when the sun rises and day and night meet, and perhaps he could catch that trace of mysterious and ethereal spiritual light.

"Chief Jiuxiao, is there any teacher in the academy who is proficient in ancient texts? Perhaps there is any way to quickly decipher ancient texts?"

Ancient times are too far away.

Many historical heritages have gradually been lost due to the lack of ancient texts and the difficulty of deciphering them.

In other words, if Rong Shu had not directly received the inheritance and empowerment in the Tianjiao Tower, even if the ancient text of the Nine-Character Mantra was placed in front of her, she would not be able to understand a single word, let alone comprehend it.

Jiu Xiao pondered and said, "The magical power you received in the Tianjiao Tower cannot be helped by outsiders."

"Deciphering ancient texts is extremely difficult. Among the teachers in the academy, the one who has made great progress in deciphering ancient texts is undoubtedly Dugu Keqing. However, her whereabouts are uncertain and she doesn't stay at the academy all the time."

Rong Shu: "The lonely guest is now..."

Jiuxiao: "Not in the academy."

Hearing this, Rong Shu became visibly disappointed.

"Deciphering ancient texts? You're just a little turtle with a bone age of less than two hundred years. You really don't know how high the sky is and how deep the earth is." Jiuyin, who was kneeling beside Jiuxiao and was so bored that he was pulling the grass on the ground, suddenly sneered.

The next second, Jiuxiao glanced at him lightly.

Jiuyin snorted in dissatisfaction and disappeared.

Rong Shu was no longer surprised by this.

These days, Jiuyin would make a sarcastic remark to her from time to time, as if he really wanted to drive her away.

Jiuxiao turned around and looked at Rong Shu again: "But there is a place that may be helpful for you to comprehend the ancient magical powers."

Rong Shu immediately asked, "Where? Is it inside the academy?"

Jiuxiao: "Tower of Time."

……

Finally, he got a clue on how to comprehend the Nine-Character Mantra. When Rong Shu went down the mountain, even though it was dark and his whole body was aching, he couldn't hide the bright smile on his face.

"Finally..."

"The inner wall of the Time Tower is actually covered with ancient texts..."

"That's right. In Zhongzhou today, I haven't heard of any top forces being able to control a supreme secret technique like the Time Tower, which can affect the flow of heaven and earth."

Some similar secret methods can at most make the person being cursed forget or blur the concept of the passage of time, but they will not truly change the time laws of a certain world.

Time is limited, space is king.

Cultivators like formation masters and divination masters study the laws of space.

"It seems that I need to take some time to go to the Time Tower. Not only to consolidate my cultivation foundation, but also to comprehend the Lin character of the Nine-Character Mantra as soon as possible."

However, Rong Shu cannot go to the Time Tower in the short term.

Before that, she had to continue to receive special training with Chief Jiuxiao.

"Hiss... Chief Jiuxiao hit me too hard..." Rong Shu touched the bruise on his left arm and almost grimaced, "No! It was Chief Jiuyin who did it..."

The original body and the clone joined forces to beat her, and both were stronger than her. Rong Shu really couldn't withstand it.

Especially Chief Jiuyin, after learning that he had to come to Chief Jiuxiao for special training frequently, he became very displeased with him and his moves were ruthless and deadly.

"Although I'm here for special training, just taking a beating is not a solution..." Rong Shu rolled his eyes, thinking about whether there was any way to make Chief Jiuyin change his attitude towards her slightly.

Don't keep beating her to death.

She is not here to break up this "family", nor is she here to join this "family".

She is here to protect this 'home'!

"Have it!"

"Maybe we can try..."
