The Secret of the Goddess

Chapter 21 The Immortal Golden Body of the Great Sage

Xue Yi returned with a full load, returned to Shengwei Mansion, and ran back to Lan Garden without stopping.

He was afraid that the ice would melt if he ran too slowly!

As soon as he returned to Lan Garden, the maids saw him carrying a package on his shoulder and a large kettle in his hand, and hurried forward to help take it.

However, Xue Yi ignored them and went straight into the eldest lady's room.

Xiao Qingruo was like a nerd, still sitting there flipping through books. The high temperature in midsummer didn't seem to bother her, as the room was not very hot.

Seeing Xue Yi coming back, she glanced over here and her eyes fell on the teapot.

"Did you buy it?"

"Yes, a big pot, enough for you to drink, and you can share it with the maids if you can't finish it."

Xue Yi put down his things, took a bowl, and prepared to pour it for her.

As a result, the mouth of the bowl was blocked by a white and tender little hand.

Xiao Qingruo said: "Don't want this, use a cup for me."

Cup?

Xue Yi smiled in his heart. Did this young lady miss the milk tea in that world?

He pretended not to understand and showed her a small cup for drinking tea: "This kind?"

Xiao Qingruo explained: "No, I want a big cup, a very big one." He gestured casually.

"What a strange request."

Xue Yi complained, and then asked the maids for a jade cup for wine.

The wine cup looks similar to the modern milk tea cup, but there are multiple round holes on the outside of the cup wall, so you can put your fingers in. The white jade texture makes it look very beautiful, which is very suitable for the noble status of the young lady.

Xiao Qingruo was very satisfied and ordered: "Bring me another hollow bamboo tube, just thicker than chopsticks."

Xue Yi's mouth twitched: "You have too many requests."

But he still copied it according to the request.

There happened to be a bunch of thin bamboo used for landscaping in Lanyuan, which could be used after being cut and washed.

After a while, the young lady drank the cool and sweet fruit tea with a wine cup and bamboo. Her beautiful face was filled with satisfaction and happiness.

"Did you buy the ice beard grass?" she asked casually.

"Well, I got three pounds, but it's about to rot. I have to crush it and use it up." Xue Yi opened the package to show her.

Xiao Qingruo drank the fruit tea and took a look: "Oh, there are also detoxification fruits, coffin climbing vines, and bone-rotting flowers. Did you buy all the harvest for the tomb robbers?"

"You can see this?" Xue Yi said in surprise.

"Of course, don't you look at who I am. If it weren't for the limitation of my spiritual roots, I would now be a great cultivator, a great alchemist, a great formation master, a great scholar, a great..." Xiao Qingruo raised her chin proudly.

"Big waste." Xue Yi cruelly exposed her weakness.

"You..."

Xiao Qingruo was so angry that her teeth itched. She sipped the fruit tea in big gulps, and the bamboo tube was almost bitten to pieces by her.

Xue Yi took out the herbs.

There were too many ice whiskers, and they couldn't all be used. Otherwise, the coldness would be too strong, which would offset the power of the red fruit and reduce the effect.

Seeing that he had some herbs left, Xiao Qingruo reminded him: "Grind the extra ones into medicinal mud and put them in the jade box. You can use them when you are burned by fire."

"Understood."

Xue Yi took the stone mortar and started to operate on the spot, crushing all the ice whiskers together, and then used them in large and small portions.

While pounding the medicine, he remembered the ancient characters on the rag, and happened to be free now, so he took it out and gave it to Xiao Qingruo.

"This is what the herbalist brought out from the ancient tomb. As a great scholar, do you recognize ancient characters?"

Xiao Qingruo took two steps away in disgust: "It stinks. Did you wipe your sweat with it?"

"Uh... No, it might be contaminated with corpse oil in the coffin." Xue Yi laughed.

Xiao Qingruo almost vomited.

She felt better after taking a big bite of ice cubes, and then she covered her nose and asked Xue Yi to unfold the rag and look at it from two or three meters away.

"I have the Great Saint's method, which I will only pass on to those who are destined to know it. This is the first move, and I will give you the opportunity to protect yourself."

She really knew these ancient characters, although they were a little fuzzy, but because she knew them, she could associate them and read them out directly.

Xue Yi immediately pricked up his ears: "It sounds very powerful, what is this?"

Xiao Qingruo continued to read: "The Great Saint's Immortal Golden Body Secret, the first move, the golden light of fighting spirit protecting the body. The formula: Qi flows through the eight meridians, converges at the curved bones, the Yuan Gang surges, and the whole body is covered..."

After she finished reading it, the two looked at each other and said in surprise: "Sacred martial arts!"

This is a sacred martial arts!

And it is the first move in a whole set of sacred martial arts!

This "Great Saint's Immortal Golden Body Secret" should have many moves, and the golden light of fighting spirit protecting the body is only the first move, but it is already very powerful and can withstand extremely powerful attacks.

Although it consumes a lot of Gang Qi, it can save lives at critical moments, which is definitely worth it!

"How much did you pay for the herbs?" Xiao Qingruo asked.

Xue Yi raised his hand hesitantly.

"Five hundred taels, to buy a holy martial art?" Xiao Qingruo was speechless.

She was so rich, but she never thought she could buy a holy martial art.

The martial arts seen in the market outside were basically inferior or low-quality.

The middle-quality ones could be bid at the auction house, and the high-quality ones would cause many family forces to scramble for them.

The top-quality ones would even cause all forces to fight at all costs!

And this rag turned out to be a holy martial art...

Xue Yi was so happy.

But he didn't care to be happy!

"It seems that the herbalist has dug up the entire ancient tomb. There may be a second rag like this. I'll go find him and ask!"

From the ancient characters on the rag, it can be seen that "The Secret of the Great Sage's Immortal Golden Body" is far more than just one move. If you can get all of them, the value is comparable to the imperial martial arts!

But Xiao Qingruo said: "It is unlikely that such good things will come in succession. Look at this rag. There are old traces of tearing and breaking on the edge. It must have been damaged by many fights. The owner of the tomb must have obtained it during his lifetime. After his death, he didn't want others to get it, so he took it into the coffin as a shroud. It's meaningless for you to find a herbalist. Instead, it will expose the fact that you have obtained good things and make it easy for people to think about it."

Xue Yi frowned.

If this is the case, the owner of the tomb is not the creator of "The Secret of the Great Sage's Immortal Golden Body", and it will be troublesome to collect other parts.

"Let it go. This golden light of fighting spirit can be regarded as a unique skill. Even if you don't encounter the following moves, it will be enough for you to use for a lifetime. Don't ask for too much." Xiao Qingruo quickly let it go and didn't continue to think about it.

Xue Yi thought about it and felt the same way.

Five hundred taels to buy a holy martial art, it's a good deal, there's no need to worry about it.

"Read it to me again, I'll find time to learn it." He said to Xiao Qingruo.

"You have a really bad memory, I can recite it after reading it once."

Xiao Qingruo said with contempt, then recited it to him without even looking at it.

Xue Yi couldn't help but be surprised.

No wonder the eldest lady is so knowledgeable, it turns out she has a photographic memory.

Being a waste, it's really a waste of talent!

"Wait... You're not making up stories to deceive me, are you? You're not honest at all!" Xue Yi suddenly thought of a possibility and looked at her suspiciously.

He was deceived once in the morning, he didn't want to be deceived again so soon.

Xiao Qingruo snorted: "Believe it or not." She was so proud that she seemed like a goddess.

"Little girl... Never mind, I'll believe you again!"

The temptation of holy martial arts was still too great.

Although the Emperor's Five Spirits Art contains several holy martial arts skills, they can only be used in the later stage. At this level, it is at most a top-grade one.

This "Great Sage's Immortal Golden Body Art" looks very powerful, and it is a bit unwilling not to learn it.

After Xue Yi memorized the formula, he put away the rags and stored them in a wooden box to prevent the stench from disturbing the beautiful young lady.

Then he took the Qingyu Dew that Xiao Qingruo couldn't finish drinking to share with the maids, and tasted it himself, and everyone enjoyed the rare coolness in midsummer.

Soon, it was past noon.

After lunch, Xue Yi planned to practice for a while and practice new skills.

Unexpectedly, at this time, someone from the main mansion suddenly came over, saying that there was something to discuss, and asked Xiao Qingruo to go over.
