chapter 6 Encounter by the river

by Lachesis 18:07,Dec 04,2023


Outside Guangling City.

A mighty river rushed past, its surface was wide and was thousands of feet long.

Dacang River.

The longest river in Yunhe County, winding for thousands of miles.

It was exactly ten o'clock in the morning.

Ethan Knapp was wearing a blue cloth and walking north along the Dacang River alone.

As he walked, he felt the changes in the aura between heaven and earth.

Observe the momentum of mountains and rivers, observe the phenomena of heaven and earth.

This is the so-called "Feng Shui Kanyu" approach.

Although Ethan Knapp has no cultivation at the moment, his experience and vision in his previous life are still there.

This allowed him to gain insight into the aura distributed between heaven and earth from the trends of mountains, rivers and rivers.

The aura of each place is different.

He walked along the river bank for more than ten miles and finally stood still, with a trace of satisfaction in his eyes.

Ahead is a large mountain with clusters of peaks and mountains, shrouded in mist all year round.

Yuncang Mountains.

The land stretches for 800 miles and borders the Dacang River.

"Further forward, there is the 'Ghost Mother Ridge' in Yuncang Mountain that makes the people of Guangling City talk about it..."

Ethan Knapp put his hands on his back and looked into the distance.

For many years, Guimuling has been regarded as a place of "unknown danger".

It is said that a long time ago, there was a battlefield ruins there, which was extremely sinister. It is said that there are vicious and gloomy ghosts haunting it all year round.

Many ghost stories circulated in Guangling City are mostly related to "Ghost Mother Ridge".

"Yin energy locks the mountain, and the evil mist never dissipates. This is indeed a 'blessed place' for evil spirits."

After a while, Ethan Knapp put away his gaze and sighed in his heart, "It's a pity that I haven't cultivated yet. Otherwise, I could go for a trip and catch a few ghosts to help me collect elixirs from the mountains. In this case, I don't have to work so hard." I came to this remote place outside the city to practice..."

There are indeed ghosts in this world!

And Ethan Knapp knew better that ghosts are divided into ghosts, ghosts, ghosts, ghosts and so on.

Among the nine states in the wilderness, the "Ximing Ghost Emperor" with the most mysterious origin was originally a "ghost" born in the ancient battlefield, and can be called a legend in ghost cultivation.

"Although the spiritual energy here is still very thin, for me now, it's pretty good."

Ethan Knapp finally decided to practice here.

This is a mulberry forest, adjacent to the Dacang River, with the Yuncang Mountains in front of it. It hides the wind and receives the water. The power of the mountains and rivers converge here, and it can barely be regarded as a "spiritual land".

A gust of river breeze blows, and the spiritual energy flowing in the air makes people feel relaxed and happy.

Phew~

Su Yi exhaled turbid air, and his body and mind gradually became clear and ethereal, as if the moon was full in the blue sky.

Then, he opened his posture and performed the Songhe body-building technique.

"Sure enough, it's different from when I was practicing in the Alice family..."

In just a moment, Ethan Knapp, who was practicing, noticed that in the void ten feet away, there were strands of thin spiritual energy coming towards him and soaking into his body.

Like the spring breeze turning into rain, it moistens things silently.

And the energy and blood in his body began to become mellow and lively, as if he was cheering, jumping for joy, and full of vitality.

Ethan Knapp quickly abandoned this distracting thought and immersed himself in cultivation, completely forgetting himself.

The sun is high in the sky and it is already noon.

This time, Su Yi practiced for three hours!

Fortunately, this mulberry forest is extremely remote, close to Guimu Ridge, a dangerous place, and inaccessible, so no one disturbed Ethan Knapp's Qingxiu.

Snapped!

Suddenly, there was a crisp sound from the muscles and bones of Ethan Knapp body, as if a layer of body barrier had been cut open, and the energy and blood in his body surged like the Yangtze River.

At this moment, his body is like an eternal pine tree, connected to the sky and the earth!

The boiling and lively blood in the body is like a crane fluttering its wings, flying in the blue sky, carefree and full of mysterious charm.

The movement and stillness of pine and crane are in harmony, virtuality and reality complement each other, both form and meaning!

this moment,

Ethan Knapp has completely mastered the essence and charm of the Songhe body training technique.

And he also entered the early stage of moving blood in one fell swoop!

The blood-moving realm is the first realm of martial arts. It is the beginning of cultivation and the foundation of the great path. It is divided into four levels: skin refining, meat refining, tendon refining, and bone refining.

After a year, Ethan Knapp finally regained his cultivation level today!

Clang!

A familiar sword chant sounded in Ethan Knapp mind, filled with joy and excitement.

Electro Sword!

"Are you happy for me too..."

Ethan Knapp's eyes showed a subtle color.

In the past life, when I was young and had just started practicing, the Electro Sword was by my side, accompanying me all the way on the road.

Until his reincarnation, despite his terrifying cultivation in the "Xuanhe Realm" that was respected by the Great Wilderness, he was still unable to uncover the true secret of the Electro Sword!

Its origin.

The nine-layer divine chain sealed on its sword.

All are full of mystery.

Ethan Knapp can let go of the overwhelming wealth and unparalleled fame he has accumulated throughout his life.

The only thing I can't let go of is the Electro Sword!

Therefore, before reincarnating in his previous life, Ethan Knapp did not hesitate to seal his lifelong memories in this sword and reincarnate with this sword.

This sword is like life and cannot be parted from!

Soon, Su Yi shook his head and began to calmly experience the changes in his own aura.

"Exhaling spiritual energy to practice is really extraordinary."

After awakening his past life memories, he practiced hard at the Alice family for three days.

But taken together, it is far less than the three hours of practicing on the bank of the Dacang River.

What a world of difference!

"If I practice here, it only takes three days for me to reach the level of 'skin refining'."

Thinking of this, Su Yi shook his head.

"If it's just to improve my cultivation level, it would be easy for me. But to rebuild my cultivation in this life, what I seek is a way to surpass my previous life!"

“To achieve this step, we must work steadily and step by step in every realm.”

"Remember, you must not act too hastily."

Ethan Knapp reminded himself secretly.

The blood-moving realm is the first realm in martial arts.

Although this situation is the most basic, it is also the most important, which can affect whether the future path can go further.

He uses the "Songhe Body Training Technique" to practice in order to develop a foundation in the four realms of martial arts that far exceeds that of the same realm in his previous life!

"It's a pity that I am penniless now. If I have enough money, I can buy some medicinal herbs in the city. After daily practice, I can nourish my body with medicinal baths and refine the essence of the medicinal herbs, which will be enough to further improve and enhance my physical strength."

"Next, we have to find opportunities to make some money..."

Ethan Knapp is thinking about future training plans.

Suddenly, a violent coughing sound floated from the wind.

Ethan Knapp turned around and saw two figures approaching from a distance in the direction of Guimu Ridge.

An old man in robes and a girl in purple.

The old man in a robe walked carelessly, his face was thin and pale, and he coughed violently as he walked, making him almost breathless.

The girl in purple accompanied him on one side, her beautiful oval face full of worry.

Her purple clothes were flowing, and a white jade belt was wrapped around her waist. She was tall and beautiful, and her appearance was extremely outstanding.

What's even more rare is that she has an aura of nobility that is very different from ordinary people.

"Whether this old man or this girl, it is obvious that they have been in the upper position for a long time."

Ethan Knapp only glanced at it and then looked away.

But just when he was about to leave, he paused and looked at the old man in robe again.

Suddenly, he made a new discovery, and a strange color appeared in the depths of his eyes.

The old man in robe and the girl in purple had already noticed Ethan Knapp and didn't take him seriously at all.

But when Ethan Knapp looked at the old man in robes for the second time, the purple-clothed girl couldn't help but frown, and a hint of sullenness appeared on her pretty face.

"He's sneaky, and he's not a good person at first glance!"

Her pretty face was frosty and she glared at Ethan Knapp Yi.

Ethan Knapp was startled, this girl has a very bad temper.

"Sabrina, don't be rude. No matter how much you worry about grandpa's injury, you can't spread your anger on innocent people."

The old man in robes had a gentle voice, "When you are in the world, you should restrain yourself and return to etiquette, and say nothing inappropriate. Only in this way can you keep the spiritual platform peaceful and not be trapped by the six thieves in your heart."

The girl named Sabrina said distressedly: "Grandpa, you are hurt like this and you still come to teach me a lesson. How can I have the heart to listen?"

The old man in robe laughed and shook his head, and then he slightly cupped his hands towards Ethan Knapp, "If I offend you, I hope you will forgive me."

As he spoke, he suddenly coughed violently, making the veins on his forehead stand out, as if he wanted to spit out his heart and lungs.

"Grandpa, don't talk anymore."

Sabrina pretty face was filled with worry and she was extremely anxious. She carefully held the old man's arm and said, "When we return to the city, I will find the best doctor to treat your injuries."

At this moment, Ethan Knapp suddenly said: "This kind of injury cannot be saved by ordinary doctors. If we continue to delay, we will definitely die within three days."

Sabrina eyes widened in anger, and she said angrily: "You are so brave, how dare you curse my grandfather to death?"

But the old man in the robe smiled bitterly and said: "Sabrina, this little friend is right. Grandpa's injury is almost hopeless."

"this……"

Sabrina was as heartbroken as if she had been struck by lightning, and said in a trembling voice: "Grandpa, I will never let anything happen to you! I will take you back to Yunhe County right now."

The old man in robe smiled and said: "Don't panic, life and death are destined by God. I have long taken it lightly during my military life."

Having said this, he looked at Ethan Knapp again with a subtle expression, "My dear friend, I would like to ask, how did you see the injury on the old man's body before?"

Ethan Knapp had a good impression of the old man in robe, and he didn't hide it, saying:

"There is a scarlet evil spirit between the eyebrows, the face is pale and bloodless, and the lungs are invaded by sinister poison. In addition, there are wisps of cold corpse energy lingering on the body. If my guess is correct, you have encountered the 'Six Ultimate Yin Corpse' in Guimu Ridge before. '."

The old man in robe couldn't help but be moved, "What a sight!"

Sabrina next to her said doubtfully: "That's not right. Grandpa, didn't you say that very few people in Yunhe County know that the 'Six Ultimate Yin Corpses' were born in the Ghost Mother Ridge of Yuncang Mountain?"

This was also the reason why the old man in robe was moved.

Not to mention Guangling City, almost no one in the entire Yunhe County knew this secret.

But the young man in front of him could tell the truth just by looking at the injuries on his body!

Ethan Knapp Yi said calmly: "It's nothing to be able to see this. I'm even sure that you are here to pick the 'Liuyin Grass' and the 'Poly Yang Flower'."

"How do you know?"

Sabrina was startled and blurted out.

The expression of the old man in robe also changed, and a turmoil arose in his heart.

A young man I met on the roadside could see the injuries he had suffered and the purpose of his trip just by relying on his eyesight.

This is too terrible!

"How do I know?"

Ethan Knapp shook his head and chuckled, "Girl, don't you know that wherever the 'Six Absolute Yin Corpses' appear, there must be Liuyin Grass? This elixir is extremely cold and extremely yin. The so-called lone yin does not grow, and lone yang does not grow." Wherever the six-yin grass grows, there must be the polar-yang flower to accompany it.”

This matter is common sense in Dahuang Jiuzhou!

But it was obvious that Sabrina was shocked and speechless.

Even the expression of the old man in robe showed a trace of unconcealable surprise.

In his eyes, the tall and thin young man opposite him gave him an unfathomable aura.
