I had already ascended to heaven when the spiritual energy began to recover?

Chapter 42 Drawing Purple Qi into the Sword: The Old Pharmacist's Fortuitous Encounter

Bai Sheng read the incantation for the One Qi Righteous Yang Sword twice more from beginning to end.

I prepare to activate my true essence and test the condensation path of the sword energy.

Scanning the last line of small print at the end of the annotation,

"This sword technique is based on innate true energy, drawing in the purple aura of the rising sun into the sword."

When practicing, one should stand outdoors facing east and perform the exercise within an hour before or after sunrise to achieve twice the result with half the effort.

If you work in isolation, progress will be slow, and you'll achieve half the results with twice the effort.

He turned his head and glanced out the window.

It was already getting dark.

A few lights were twinkling in the windows of the building across the street, and the streetlights in the neighborhood were gradually turning on.

Where can we draw in the purple aura of the rising sun so late at night?

Well, cultivation is something where every second counts.

But we must not be impatient for quick results.

We still need to maintain a calm mindset and proceed step by step.

Otherwise, the development of inner demons will lead to endless troubles.

You can't rush it.

Bai Sheng closed the book, thought for a moment, and prepared to take a good rest.

I've been working non-stop these past few days.

My body can handle it, but I am indeed a bit mentally exhausted.

Take a rest tonight, and if you feel better tomorrow morning...

Go out and find a suitable place to practice swordsmanship.

He picked up his phone and browsed the forums for a while, then looked through the news.

There's nothing particularly noteworthy in the news.

Put down your phone, wash up, and go to bed.

Before bed,

Suddenly my phone rang. I opened it and saw...

A red dot suddenly appeared in my WeChat contacts.

He clicked on it and saw...

Nicknamed "The highest virtue is like water".

The profile picture is a photo of the storefront of a traditional Chinese medicine shop, with a vermilion signboard.

Bai Sheng glanced at it.

Isn't this the old shop he's been to several times?

Bai Sheng raised an eyebrow and clicked "accept".

Almost simultaneously with the passage,

The other party then sent a message.

The experienced pharmacist had clearly been keeping an eye on his phone the whole time.

However, it's also clear that their typing speed is faster than many young people:

"Young friend, I apologize for disturbing you."

Last time you mentioned your family's ancestral recipe. After I went back, I checked medical books and felt that the proportions of a few herbs were not reasonable, but the effect was undeniable.

"May I ask, young friend, does your family's lineage have any official name or title?"

After reading the message, Bai Sheng placed his phone on his lap.

There was no immediate reply.

Where did he get this supposed lineage or title?

The prescription was copied from a Taoist book.

But since this old pharmacist took the initiative to come to us...

This means that the previous flirting had already planted a seed in the other person's mind.

The old pharmacist probably still wanted to believe it, but he just needed a way to convince himself.

He picked up his phone again and typed a message in reply:

"If you want the prescription, pay up. If not, then there's no point in talking."

After sending this message, he placed his phone screen-down on the coffee table.

I got up and went to the bathroom to wash up.

be honest,

Bai Sheng isn't that interested in money anymore.

Not to mention that Zhao Jianguo's cryptocurrency holdings are enough for him to live on for several lifetimes,

In the coming great era

What is 10 yuan anyway?

It's just that they don't want to mess with Zhao Jianguo's cryptocurrency right now, but they still want to have some pocket money.

Even from a certain perspective,

Based on the health benefits of this formula,

In the future, its value will likely far exceed 10 yuan.

This, in fact, became an opportunity for the old pharmacist.

Whether he can handle it or not depends on him.

so,

Whether I sell the formula for Peiyuan Powder or not is up to me.

Selling it would just mean getting some extra pocket money, but not selling it wouldn't result in any loss.

But if you try to negotiate with this old man...

If the other party hesitates in the end, and you waste a whole night, that's a real loss.

His time is incredibly valuable right now.

I have to go out and find a place to practice the One Qi Righteous Yang Sword as soon as it's light tomorrow.

The next eight levels of Qi Condensation Technique also require systematic practice.

Who has the time to engage in business negotiations with a pharmacy owner?

After brushing his teeth and washing his face, Bai Sheng hung the towel on the rack.

I went back to my bedroom and lay down.

I opened my phone and took a look.

The old pharmacist sent another long message.

The general idea is that I'll think about it some more.

Then they asked a bunch of questions.

Bai Sheng was too lazy to look at it closely, so he simply turned his phone face down and went to sleep.

At five o'clock, Bai Sheng woke up naturally.

At this time, it was not yet fully light.

Get up and get dressed.

The noise woke the calico cat, who raised its head and yawned.

As usual, the chubby orange cat next to him was fast asleep at the foot of the bed.

He quickly washed up.

I changed into a pair of sneakers and went downstairs. I scanned a shared bike at the entrance of the community.

I rode towards the outskirts of the city.

It's very clear in the annotation.

In the early stages of practicing Qigong, one must rely entirely on the external Qi of heaven and earth.

Ideally, find a place with high ground, a wide view, and the ability to greet the sunrise.

Perform the exercises on the mountaintop or high platform.

When the purple aura is at its strongest, the cultivation effect is the best.

In my memory,

There is a mountain on the outskirts of Yangcheng.

It's still a tourist attraction.

The altitude isn't too high, but the view is expansive.

Bai Sheng rode eastward along the main road.

After leaving the city,

The road surface was changed from asphalt to cement.

The buildings on both sides became increasingly sparse.

Large tracts of wasteland began to appear behind the roadside trees.

After riding for about forty minutes, we reached the foot of the mountain.

The scenic area gates are still closed.

He locked his bicycle to the roadside guardrail.

A wild path climbs up from the side.

After undergoing blood transfusion and bone tempering, physical strength is no longer an issue.

The steep slope has many loose stones, making it slippery.

If someone has difficulty walking, they might find it impossible to move an inch.

Bai Sheng's every step was extremely steady, as if he were walking on flat ground.

However, in order not to attract attention, he deliberately controlled his speed.

If someone were to scale walls and rooftops, they might get filmed and posted online.

quickly,

In less than five minutes,

Bai Sheng climbed up to the middle of the mountain.

There is a protruding rock platform halfway up the mountain, facing east.

The surrounding area is full of low shrubs, offering a wide and open view.

Looking down, you can see the entire farmland at the foot of the mountain.

There's nothing obstructing the view above either.

He sat cross-legged on the rock.

The morning sunlight spread across the horizon.

It feels warm and cozy when it shines on your skin.

The mountain breeze, carrying the scents of pine resin, soil, and grass, blew upwards from the valley.

Bai Sheng closed his eyes and sensed it for a moment.

Then I silently recited the incantation for the One Qi Righteous Yang Sword twice in my mind.

Make a sword-finger gesture with your right hand.

He activated the pale golden true essence at the bottom of his dantian.

It flows along the three Yin meridians of the hand to the right hand.

The sword energy began to condense.

Beneath the skin of his right sword-finger, a very faint golden light shone through.

It was much brighter under the direct sunlight than when it was indoors.

He could feel the air in front of his sword being cut.

"Drawing the purple aura of the rising sun into the sword..."

Bai Sheng guided him with his mind.

Try to extract a wisp of purple energy from the sunlight and integrate it into the sword's aura.

At the same time that this action was performed,

The golden light on the sword finger flashed violently for a moment.

Then the entire mass of sword energy silently dissipated.

It transformed into a few wisps of golden silk and disappeared into the air!

Bai Sheng tried again.

This time, let the sword energy condense into a form.

Then, carefully guide the purple energy closer to the outer layer of the sword aura.

The result was the same; the moment the purple aura touched the sword energy,

The sword energy exploded like a burst bubble.
