Chapter 405: Entering the Qi Pond Again
A white petal fell on the tip of Long Qi's nose, causing him to sneeze. It seemed that his good sleep was disturbed. He frowned slightly and protested for no reason. Then he turned over and planned to sleep a little longer.
“Baji, baji… snap, snap…”
There was a crisp sound coming from his ears, as if someone was eating nearby. The smacking sound made Long Qi very annoyed.
"Ha ha……"
It was Lingxiang's laughter, playful and with a hint of amusement, which instantly dispelled Long Qi's impatience.
“Spiritual incense!”
Long Qi woke up suddenly, got up quickly, looked around, and found that it was the courtyard of Youran Residence. Following the sound, he actually saw Lingxiang lying on the hammock.
However, strangely, Long Qi actually lay down again, resting his head on his arms, with a look of disappointment on his face.
"Why did you summon me again?"
It turned out that person was not Lingxiang, but Longyuan Sword Spirit.
The sword spirit glanced at Long Qi, who was chewing his noisy snacks, with a look of dissatisfaction on his face.
"Why do you ask me to summon you? You came here uninvited. Besides, this is your Qi Pool, how can I control it?"
Ah! That’s right! This is my own Chi Pool…
Only then did Long Qi remember and sighed helplessly.
He didn't want to come, but ever since he started practicing the art of endo with his ancestors, this happened more and more frequently.
Long Qi thought about this matter for a long time but still couldn't figure out what was going on. Every time he asked his ancestor, the ancestor just said, "You will know when the time comes," and no more words were said.
Timing, timing, when will the timing come?
Long Qi was a little annoyed, but he had no idea how to leave such a place, so no matter how anxious he was, he could do nothing but wait for himself to wake up naturally as before.
Previously in Yunmengze, he found the innate qi and later woke up. But now the old pear tree is in full bloom and he can't come and go freely.
Everything changed after taking the Ningxiang Pill...
While Long Qi was deep in thought, the sword spirit beside him gulped down the howling monster snack in his mouth, licked his fingers, and asked deliberately:
"Do you notice anything different about this yard?"
Upon hearing this, Long Qi rolled his eyes, turned sideways, and faced away from the sword spirit, looking as if he didn't want to pay any attention to her.
Every time he came here, the sword spirit would ask this question. Long Qi had explored this yard inside and out countless times. Except for the old pear tree in Xianyunju, nothing had changed anywhere.
He didn't know whether Long Yuan Sword Spirit really wanted to help him or was teasing him. Why not just tell him directly? Why did he have to play dumb?
Long Qi closed his eyes helplessly, thinking that maybe if he fell asleep here, his physical body would wake up soon.
A breeze blew by, and the old pear tree rustled. The fragrance filled the whole yard. Pear petals fluttered like snow and fell on Long Qi's body, as if covered with a layer of white snow.
How wonderful it would be if I could share this peace with Lingxiang...
Long Qi sighed in his heart and sighed again unconsciously, but at this moment, bursts of dripping sounds came into his ears, dripping and very rhythmic.
Water droplets?
Where do the water drops come from?
Long Qi suddenly opened his eyes, but the sound of dripping water stopped abruptly. No matter how hard he searched, he could not hear any sound.
The sound just now didn’t seem like an auditory hallucination, but why couldn’t I hear it as soon as I opened my eyes?
It's really weird...
Forget it, forget it. Why bother with so much? The most important thing now is to wake up quickly.
Long Qi closed his eyes again. At this moment, the sound of water drops came again. Listening carefully, it seemed to be right next to his ears. "Did you find anything different?"
The sword spirit's voice came at the right time, but along with the sound of dripping water, it was lingering in a pool of water.
His irritable mood gradually calmed down with the sound of water drops. Long Qi closed his eyes and listened attentively. The sound of water drops became clearer and clearer. He seemed to be able to feel the ripples of water drops falling, shining and spreading all around.
It was as if even the wind had stopped, only water was dripping. At the moment when that drop of water fell, Long Qi suddenly opened his eyes, stood up and looked at the two large vats in the yard.
Cylinder?
Long Qi walked towards the jar, which was filled with water. It was already full, but it never overflowed.
When was there water in the tank?
In the past three years, Long Qi had come to this yard countless times, but he had never seen so much water in the vat.
How is this going?
Long Qi was about to turn around and ask Jian Ling, but he didn't expect her to be right beside him, with her hands behind her back, looking down into the vat.
"Oh wow! That's all!"
"What?" Long Qi didn't understand what the sword spirit meant, and asked subconsciously.
"What what!" The sword spirit pursed its lips, "Didn't you see it?"
Long Qi naturally saw it, but he didn't understand where the water came from or what it represented.
Lingxiang once said that the Qi Pool is a person's inner state, and everything in it has a meaning.
"That little girl is really smart. She came up with such an idea." The sword spirit said something incomprehensible, then lay back on the hammock and continued to eat her snacks.
Long Qi was unhappy. He was very unhappy. One was hiding things from him, and the other was playing tricks on him all day long. Wouldn't it be better to be straightforward?
Looking at Long Qi whose facial features were almost wrinkled together, the sword spirit smiled with a gloating look on his face.
"That's enough! You're grown up, but you're still acting like a child!"
The sword spirit pointed at Long Qi and asked, "When you were performing magic before, did you feel a little powerless? Was it because you couldn't control the spiritual power in your body?"
Long Qi thought about it and it seemed to be true, so he nodded.
"What about now?" the sword spirit asked again.
Now?
Now I have learned some magic skills and can even use magic skills such as Heavenly Thunder and Divine Fire.
Could it be that the water in this jar is my own spiritual power?
As if guessing what Long Qi was thinking, the sword spirit smacked its lips, stretched out a finger and shook it.
“It’s not that simple, but to put it simply, that girl’s Condensing Fragrance Pill did help you accumulate more spiritual power.”
As the sword spirit spoke, he crossed his legs, completely ignoring the fact that she was now wearing the spiritual fragrance. Seeing this, Long Qi felt a little annoyed, but he had no choice but to turn his head away and wait for what was to come.
"Your Qi channels were smooth before, but you didn't know how to draw on the spiritual power within. After that girl set a restriction on you, over the years, in order to break through the restriction, the spiritual power has been continuously gathered, so you are now able to perform magic."
"Isn't that still spiritual power?" Long Qi glanced at the sword spirit unhappily.
"Wrong! It's the method."
"Method?" Long Qi was puzzled.
what way?
"That girl used this method to teach you how to gather spiritual energy."
How to gather spiritual energy?
"You are gifted with spiritual roots and abundant spiritual power. I can feel it every time you wield the sword. But you never know how to hide your power, so when you start casting spells, you become a useless man."
This……
What kind of statement is this?
What is a useless man?
