"However, I am not willing to settle for the second best and choose other spells that are not suitable for me." Gu Xu sighed lightly and said.
This is the trouble caused by too many options.
What you get is always imperfect.
What you don’t get is always in turmoil.
When providing rewards, the Exorcism Department Headquarters always likes to push a whole catalog into the hands of the monks, making them dazzled - this is not a way to motivate the monks by drawing pie. How do we work hard?
Seeing the young man's solemn eyes, Chen Jisheng smiled and said: "Gu Xu, do you remember what I said to you when I first taught you to draw the 'Tai Shang Arctic Demon-Suppressing and Demon-killing Talisman' What?"
Gu Xu replied without thinking: "You must abide by strict rules when drawing a talisman. If you draw a wrong stroke, the talisman will not take effect."
"But. , a few weeks later, you made improvements to the 'Ghost Killing Talisman' according to your own ideas, making it several times more powerful than before," Chen Jisheng said in a relaxed tone, "From that time on, I thought, All spells in this world are just reference for you.
"Gu Xu, your goal is to become a saint before the age of thirty. And you also know that if you want to transcend the ordinary and become a saint, you must find your own "Tao" - when you have your own "Tao", even if the "Tao" of your predecessors does have hidden dangers, it is nothing to be afraid of. "
Gu Xu was silent for two seconds and nodded: "Indeed. ”
Chen Jisheng is indeed his teacher in name only.
Although Chen Jisheng can no longer give him guidance on practice as often as before, on this key issue, he can With his rich practice experience and life experience, he helped him clear up the fog and understand his true intention.
I saw Chen Jisheng smiled and then said: "Actually, your eyes have told me that you are right. There's a lot of confidence in this thing. ”
He knew that Gu Xu was a person with a steady character.
But sometimes, being steady meant too many worries - it was these concerns that made Gu Xu see He didn’t look like a seventeen-year-old boy at all.
…………
After returning home, Gu Xu took out the “Magic Token” and tried to contact Chu Fengge. .
After a while, a message from Chu Fengge appeared in his field of vision——
[Kun: Have you finally chosen the spell you want?]
p>[Suzaku: Yes, Master Chu. I plan to choose "Seven Styles of Burning Sky"]
[Kun: No one has mastered "Seven Styles of Burning Sky" for hundreds of years. You actually want to choose this spell?]
[Suzaku: I have made up my mind.]
[Kun: Uh, okay...I’ll tell the Chief. . ]
[Suzaku: Thank you, Master Chu!]
…………
Luojing City, Exorcism Department Headquarters
At this moment, Chu FenggeI am practicing in retreat in the ashram.
The message sent by Gu Xu through the "God Machine Token" interrupted his meditation.
Chu Fengge sat cross-legged and was stunned for a while, silently saying in her heart: Gu Xu, this kid, is really getting more and more arrogant - after getting the "Jinghong Pen", he thought he was It's amazing that you actually want to try and challenge the "Seven Burning Heaven Styles", which are known as the most difficult to practice at the Exorcist Department Headquarters? Who does he think he is? Reincarnation of an immortal? The true king is reborn?
But at this time, Chu Fengge suddenly remembered that the Chief Executive had personally said that Gu Xu had an unprecedented first-class talent and an extremely noble destiny - this level of talent was not as good as Compared with the reincarnation of gods, I'm afraid it's not much different.
So Chu Fengge sighed again, wondering why he was born in the same era as such a monster.
Chu Fengge, as a confidant of Chief Luo Chuan, naturally had secretly read through the book "Seven Styles of Burning Heaven".
Because he knows that if he can successfully learn this spell, then he can stand in front of the world with his head held high and proudly declare that he is a "genius not seen in a hundred years" and "the first in the Da Qi Dynasty". A proud man."
Unfortunately, he was not the one favored by fate.
In his eyes, "Seven Styles of Burning Heaven" is a heavenly book that cannot be read at all.
He really couldn't understand why there were countless complicated runes in a fire-attribute spell - just looking at it made people feel dizzy and uncomfortable.
So he decisively chose to give up before he even got started.
At the same time, he often said to others: "Smart people are all practicing swordsmanship, and only fools can practice something as thankless as the "Seven Styles of Burning Heaven"."
And Shangguan Jin also sneered at him: "Then you are worse than a fool."
Chu Fengge didn't take her words seriously.
Because he knew that Shangguan Jin had secretly read "Seven Styles of Burning Heaven" in private, but she would not admit it even to death.
…………
At this moment, Luo Chuan, the head of the exorcism department, quietly appeared beside Chu Fengge.
Chu Fengge immediately stood up from the ground, bowed his hands to Luo Sishou and said, "I have met Mr. Sishou."
Only heard Luo Chuan say lightly: "Gu Xu Which spell did you choose?"
Chu Fengge replied: ""Seven Styles of Burning Heaven""
Luo Chuan was silent for a moment and murmured: "This is indeed it. The one that suits him best."
"Why did Master Chief say that?" Chu Fengge asked.
"If anyone in this world can learn and understand the magic left by Chiyangzi, it must be Gu Xu," Luo Chuan replied lightly, "Because he understands the Tao of Fu and The formation technique is also a fire-attribute technique, which meets all the conditions for learning the "Seven Styles of Burning Heaven"
"Other than that, he never cares about his predecessors during the training process.The conventions or rules left behind. Although he is relatively ignorant, he has the courage to break tradition. "
Speaking of this, Luochuan paused for a few seconds, turned his head and asked Chu Fengge: "Do you know what the true meaning of the great road hidden in "Seven Styles of Burning Heaven" is? "
Chu Fengge shook his head and answered honestly: "I don't understand. "
He couldn't even understand the content of "Seven Styles of Burning Heaven", let alone comprehend its true meaning.
Luo Chuan sighed and answered: " In fact, I don't quite understand what the 'Tao' Chi Yangzi was pursuing back then was. All I know is that the last pose of the "Seven Styles of Burning the Sky" is called 'The Sun and the Moon Replace the Sky' - I think maybe this is the answer to the question and the reason why Chiyangzi went crazy back then!
Chu Fengge hesitated for a moment and asked: "Master Chief, if Gu Xu practices this "Seven Styles of Burning Heaven", will he be like Senior Chiyangzi in the future?" Possessed? "
Luochuan replied: "Chu Fengge, you have to understand that when Gu Xu practices any spell, he will never copy it mechanically, but will integrate it and turn it into his own thing. On this point, you should learn more from him in the future. "
"That's what the Chief Secretary said. "Chu Fengge lowered his head and said.
Just like that, starting from today, Chu Fengge has another "other family's child" in his life.
…………< /p>
Luo Chuan stood there with a faint smile on his face.
As a seventh-level saint, he actually knows that the most important thing when choosing a high-quality spell is to follow your intuition and obey your heart. .
If you spend too much time weighing the pros and cons, you will lose more than you gain.
So, when Gu Xu chose to put aside his worries and face the difficulties, he felt very satisfied.
