Chapter 54 Refining, Ice Soul Xuanyin
In a deep and dark cave somewhere, a pair of eyes were shining brightly. At the same time, there was a transparent bead the size of a thumb floating in the dark cave. Circles of mana aura rippled on the small bead.
"Magic Pearl!" It was Lu Xiaotian who had used the spiritual eye technique in the cave. The monks from the families who blocked the small lake found nothing. They were immediately puzzled. They came to the conclusion that the Magic Pearl was stolen by someone. Members of the family had to leave secretly, so they could evade search.
After all, ordinary casual cultivators have already checked it, and magic beads cannot be refined in an instant. If someone swallows it, they will definitely be checked out. Therefore, the major families were suspicious of each other and almost started fighting. However, no one could be sure who secretly took away the magic beads. In the end, the fight ended without a resolution.
The casual cultivators by the small lake have also dispersed. It will still be some time before the major immortal sects recruit disciples. They have to search for spiritual grass, spiritual ore, etc. all over the mountains and plains as before. For them, crystal toads and magic beads are just a source of conversation in their spare time.
No one expected that there was a cave inside Lu Xiaotian's body, and he brought it out without anyone noticing. At this time, he was looking at this small bead with excitement that could drive countless people crazy. It is undoubtedly a priceless treasure. If it appeared in the market of Wangyue City, it would probably cause a sensation immediately and sell for an unimaginable sky-high price. , it is not difficult to switch to Foundation Establishment Pill. After all, the rarity of magic beads is far beyond what the Foundation Establishment Pill can compare with.
However, this idea just flashed through his mind and was quickly dismissed by Lu Xiaotian. Even a fool knows the consequences of a three-year-old baby holding a gold ingot on the street. The cruelty in the world of immortality is even more bloody than the battles in the secular world. He is just a monk in the middle stage of cultivation and has no background. Once the news spreads that he holds the magic beads, he may be killed by someone else's conspiracy before he can get a large amount of wealth. How could he possess a treasure that even the powerful golden elixir could only dream of?
In this case, you can only use it yourself. Lu Xiaotian felt a little complacent in his heart. He would be able to enjoy the treasure that so many people had failed to grab. This feeling was not understandable to outsiders.
Lu Xiaotian opened his mouth and swallowed the magic bead into his belly, closed his eyes and meditated. The magic bead sank into the Dantian, which seemed a bit abrupt. Lu Xiaotian mobilized the vitality of the Dantian to wrap the magic bead. With his spiritual consciousness restrained, he saw that the magic bead in his Dantian seemed to have five hidden compartments, and now his vitality was trying to enter the first hidden compartment.
I sat here for several days. After three days, the Dharma Pearl and Dantian were completely integrated. Lu Xiaotian suddenly opened his eyes. If he were not still in the mountain, for fear of attracting the attention of other monks with malicious intentions, Lu Xiaotian would have urinated early. Just laughed out loud.
"Try the power of the magic beads first." Lu Xiaotian thought for a moment and released a few head ants. Because they had been raised by the big weirdo for too long, these head ants were used to sucking blood and had not eaten for several days. They seemed very violent. As soon as they were released, two or three of them were fighting each other, two of them fled to the cave, and two of them rushed towards Lu Xiaotian.
Lu Xiaotian smiled slightly, stretched out his index finger with his right hand, and felt a little empty. A circle of ripples spread out from the index finger, like the roar of wind in the ice field, or the crisp sound of running water hitting rocks.
Ever since Lu Xiaotian refined the magic bead and used his vitality to enter the first space of the magic bead. Then he comprehended a spell, "Ice Soul Mysterious Sound".
It can directly affect people's consciousness through sound waves, making people fall into a state of chaos and evil. This then creates an opportunity for the caster to attack.
I just refined the magic beads, so I took these head ants to test the effect.
As the ripples rippled away, several of the affected ants froze and fell from the air to the ground. Lu Xiaotian felt happy, the effect on dealing with these weak spiritual insects was quite good. And because it is a spell that comes with the magic bead, it consumes even less mana and spiritual consciousness than the initial spell. In the next few days, Lu Xiaotian continued to familiarize himself with the usage of Bingso Xuanyin in the mountains and fields. But he found that this spell only had obvious effects on monks and monsters whose strength was not higher than his own. He doesn't have much attack power against people whose cultivation level exceeds his. Not even a slight hysteresis effect can be achieved. The reason why the Crystal Toad was able to influence dozens or hundreds of casual cultivators in an instant was because the Crystal Toad was a fourth-level monster and was extremely powerful compared to the casual cultivators.
Lu Xiaotian smiled bitterly. It seemed that this awakened magic bead did not have the ability to awaken very powerful things. However, many skills are not overwhelming, and few are better than none. At least against insect cultivators, this trick is more effective than any powerful spell.
After becoming proficient in the use of magic beads, Lu Xiaotian began to spend most of his energy on finding the spiritual objects required by the sect's mission, just like other casual cultivators. During this period, there would be conflicts with other casual cultivators from time to time. However, Lu Xiaotian is extremely careful and always tries his best to avoid being besieged.
The sun penetrated the thick clouds, making the vision dark. Under an ancient tree in the sand, several spiritual grasses moved in the wind. A black shadow quickly jumped to the shade of the tree. It looked a little blurry. The black shadow quickly reached out towards several spiritual grasses.
Whoosh! A large net volleyed under the cover, trapping the black shadow in it.
"Caught in the net!" In the excited voice, several monks jumped up from the camouflaged sand cave underground, each holding a sword in their hands. Guarding the surroundings of the spiritual net, he was about to kill the deceived monk in the spiritual net, but he suddenly found that the man in the net was suddenly shattered into pieces, like a splash of water scattered into countless water bottoms, and then disappeared.
"What's going on? Where are the people?"
"Damn, someone is cheating. It's so cunning. It makes me so angry!" Another person cursed angrily .
"Idiots, you are only allowed to set traps to harm people, and others are not allowed to use tricks?" Behind a boulder dozens of feet away, Lu Xiaotian watched everything carefully, and it turned out to be another trap. The other side has a lot of manpower, so it seems that there is no hope for these spiritual grasses.
Lu Xiaotian sighed. This black shadow was a shadow clone that he condensed with his magic power after learning the "Puppetry Technique". Since he had just learned it recently, the shadow clone's appearance was still very blurry, and it looked like a black shadow from a distance. If it is Taiyang Tian, even a low-level casual cultivator can see through it at a glance. However, today's gloomy weather and the background under the ancient trees created relatively good conditions for him. Coupled with his high speed, the ambush group was fooled.
Lu Xiaotian was about to leave, but he was lucky. Another team also took a fancy to these spiritual grasses. When he sent people to pick, he fought with the ambushing team, killing and injuring several people each. The killing was inextricable. Lu Xiaotian felt itchy and couldn't stand it. Taking advantage of the two teams' lack of time, he sneaked close to them and collected them as quickly as possible. He picked up one and then ran away.
The two teams were yelling at each other, but they were helpless. At this time, the two sides were fighting inextricably, and no one was willing to devote their energy to chasing the fleeing Lu Xiaotian at this time. After all, the opponent doesn't seem to be weak, so if they allocate manpower to chase them, they will probably lose. Moreover, Lu Xiaotian only picked one plant, so the two teams who fought hard gave Lu Xiaotian an advantage.
