Chapter 158: A way to break through the body-refining bottleneck
“You should have heard some rumors outside that our Cen family’s formations were actually inherited from a large sect.”
Cen Zijin said. , Chu Ning nodded.
He indeed heard Chen Wangdao say it when he first arrived in Thousand Lakes and Thousand Islands.
However, there is no accurate information about the specific sect inheritance.
Cen Zijin also continued at this moment:
"There has indeed been this rumor within the family, but I don't know exactly what inheritance it has been.
My grandfather, too. The new head of our Cen family told me a long time ago that he hoped I could help the family unlock the secret of inheritance after he discovered that I had a talent for formations. "< br>
When he said this, a trace of sadness flashed in Cen Zijin's eyes.
It can be seen that she must have a deep relationship with the other party.
Sure enough, the next moment, Cen Zijin said:
“My parents died unexpectedly not long after I was born. I was brought up by my grandfather.
His old man When he left, I was only fourteen years old, and he only had this last word at that time
According to my grandfather, if we can truly unlock the secret of family inheritance, it may not be worse than that of the big sect. >
So I have always been the master’s registered disciple and have not officially joined the sect.”
Chun Ning did not interrupt the other party’s story, and Cen Zijin continued:
“But until now, I still don’t know what the secret of the Cen family’s inheritance is, because according to our family’s rules.
Only the head of the family can master this secret of inheritance, and it is passed down orally.
< br>Although I have shown excellent cultivation talent since I was a child, I was still young when my grandfather passed away
Moreover, the foundation had not yet been established at that time, so the position of head of the family fell to the uncle. ”
Hearing this, Chu Ning vaguely guessed something.
Sure enough, Cen Zijin’s subsequent speech also confirmed his rough guess.
Cen Zijin relied on himself With excellent talent and the guidance of a famous teacher, he completed the foundation building at the age of less than seventeen. However, Cen Zijin's uncle, the current head of the family, Cen Wenquan, did not hand over the position of head of the family to Cen Zijin. br>
On the contrary, Cen Zijin was secretly suppressed within the clan.
Fortunately, there were some people in the family who supported her, so Cen Wenquan did not dare to go too far.
Cen Zijin did not go too far. It is also well known that Cen Wenquan's formation skills are unrivaled in Qian Lakes and Thousand Islands, so he simply handed over Cen Zijin's workshop to take care of it
Euphemistically, it was to give Cen Zijin an opportunity to practice.
< br>And privately, if Cen Zijin can expand the business of Cen Gongfang, it will bring more resources to the family
The position of the head of the family was passed down to Cen Zijin.
And this is why Cen Zijin is eager to find Chu Ning to cooperate and trade.
“The other five families of the Thousand Islands League do not want us to become bigger as we have always been neutral, and some of us in the Cen family do not want me to make Cen Gongfang really good.”
At this moment, Cen Zijin’s eyes were dim. A few points.
“The so-called No. 1 Fairy in Thousand Lakes and Thousand Islands, and the No. 1 Dharma Master, is just a false name, and it has never brought me anything.
Even on Pinghu Island..."
Speaking of this, Cen Zijin paused slightly.
Chun Ning followed her words.
“Do you suspect that those two monks were invited by the family?”
Cen Zijin looked towards the distance and the lake, with a hint of sadness in his eyes.
"This is not necessarily true. In the past two years, my uncle has been wanting to get closer to the Chen family and the Shi family.
The other three families naturally do not want to see this situation, and it is possible for them to take action."
< br>Chun Ning frowned slightly and said with some confusion:
"You should be opposed. The other three families don't want to see this situation, so they should support you.
Why are you thinking of assassinating you? "
"The son of the head of the Chen family has good talent in cultivation. He has already reached the point of perfecting Qi at the age of twenty-five. He should be within a few years of establishing the foundation. The uncle intends to let the two families Marriage."
Hearing what Cen Zijin said, Chu Ning finally understood.
The head of the Cen family has a good trick, if it really succeeds.
Not only has he achieved his goal of getting closer to the other two families, Cen Zijin will naturally no longer be able to compete for the title of head of the Cen family.
Chun Ning looked at Cen Zijin who looked melancholy at this moment, and asked with some confusion:
"Since your master is a strong man in the golden elixir, if you come forward, this matter should not be difficult to solve."
Cen Zijin smiled bitterly and said:
"The master has always been very concerned about me staying in this thousand lakes and islands. Because of her dissatisfaction, she would be very happy if the relationship between her and the family was broken."
Hearing this, Chu Ning shook her head slightly.
This No. 1 fairy in a thousand lakes and a thousand islands did not expect that the situation would be so unsatisfactory.
No wonder even the family was unwilling to return after the other party was injured.
I am afraid it is precisely because of this that Cen Zijin has never had the so-called airs of a foundation-building monk.
After hesitating for a moment, Chu Ning suddenly said:
“You want to fulfill your grandfather’s last words and live to decipher the secret of this family inheritance.
Since this path cannot satisfy you, why not change your mind?”
"Change your thinking?" Cen Zijin turned his head and looked at Chu Ning, with a hint of confusion in his beautiful eyes.
Chun Ning looked into the distance at this time and said softly:
"If you can't afford to offend, why can't you hide?
Why not live for yourself and pursue the immortal way? Changsheng, take back everything you want after you have the strength."
Speaking of this, Chu Ning chuckled and said:
"If you form a golden elixir, Let’s ask about this family inheritance, your uncle, does he dare not to give it?”
Cen Zijin was slightly startled when he heard this.
She never seems to think about problems from this perspective.
But gradually, her bright eyes became clear.
In just a moment, it regained its previous glory.
"What fellow Taoist said, I really haven't thought about it before."
Chun Ning looked at Cen Zijin's expression at this moment and knew that although the other party was touched, he had not made up his mind.
He did not try to persuade her any more, but continued to look at the blue waves of the lake in the distance.
"On the journey of cultivating Taoism, some bonds must be severed eventually."
Cen Zijin took a deep look at Chu Ning, turned his eyes to the distance, and said no more.
......
In the next more than a month, the two returned to their previous days.
Cultivation through practice, healing through healing.
However, the time the two occasionally communicate together seems to be a little longer than before.
More than a month has passed in the blink of an eye.
After lunch that day, Cen Zijin looked hesitant, and finally said:
"Chun Ning, my injury has fully recovered, and it has been too long since I left the Cen family.
Although it was passed on before Go back quickly, but if you don’t show up again, I’m afraid it will cause trouble.”
When Chu Ning heard this, he immediately took out a few thick stacks of talismans from his storage bag and said with a smile:
"Fellow Daoist Cen practiced the art of making talismans in seclusion, and developed the method of making talismans from low-level and intermediate talismans.
I think he will surprise many monks when he returns to Qian Huan Dao Fang City."
Cen Zijin smiled sweetly when he heard this.
"The title of the number one talisman master of Qianhu Qiandao falls on me, not yours."
Chun Ning is already very fond of Cen Zijin's stunning appearance. Little resistance.
At this moment, he also smiled freely. He wished that the monks here didn't know.
By the way, almost a year has passed since the Thousand Island Competition, so everyone should have almost forgotten about themselves.
Cen Zijin put away his smile and his bright eyes were very clear, as if he was explaining to Chu Ning or telling himself.
"I will give myself three years. If the family is still like this in these three years, then as fellow Taoist said, live for yourself and pursue the Taoist immortality."
Chun Ning heard At this, he smiled and said:
"Okay, I should still be here at Yanfeng in the past three years. Fellow Taoist Cen recognizes the place. Come and sit down more often when you have time."
"Okay!" As Cen Zijin spoke, his body swayed and he flew out of the formation.
Pausing slightly in the air, Cen Zijin turned his head.
"Next time I will bring spiritual tea to you."
After the words fell, Cen Zijin turned into a ray of light and disappeared into the sky in the blink of an eye.
Chun Ning stood there and looked at the sky outside the cave with a calm expression.
"Hey!"
At this moment, Ling Xiao called out.
“There is no more delicious food.”
Chun Ning turned his head, stared at Ling Xiaobai, smiled and cursed:
“Can you stop being so realistic, little guy? I know how to eat."
When Ling Xiaobai heard this, he shouted again aggrievedly.
It vaguely remembered that it was the guy in front of it who encouraged it to ask for food.
Cen Zijin left, but Chu Ning continued with his previous days.
Cultivation, making talismans, cultivating spiritual plants...
Every ten days, Chu Ning will still go to Caiwu Island to hand in the talisman.
It's just that every time, there will be some intermediate and low-grade talismans.
During the three months that Cen Zijin was here, he also asked Chu Ning why Liu Ping, who helped Chu Ning hand over the talisman, was not on the island.
Chun Ning just laughed and said that the other party was the agent he found.
However, Chu Ning felt that the other party should have realized that this was his excuse, but he just didn't expose it.
Chun Ning didn’t explain too much. After three months, the two of them learned some of each other’s secrets.
Time passed, and in the blink of an eye, another month passed.
On this day, after entering the Lingtian, Chu Ning went straight to the place where Yuanyang fruit and Tiesteum were cultivated.
Looking at the spiritual fruit that had completely turned into iron brown at this moment, his eyes flickered.
Originally, when the fruit first emerged, there were some red spots on the surface of the peel.
But at this moment, there was no red at all outside the spirit fruit.
This hybrid spiritual fruit is actually the same color as the previous iron stem orchid.
And the size of this spiritual fruit is even smaller.
In the past few days, Chu Ning used the Xuan Qing Hua Technique and found that the spiritual fruit could no longer absorb spiritual energy.
Obviously, this fruit has completely matured and there is no possibility of further growth.
But the problem is that Chu Ning cannot feel any spiritual energy fluctuations from the surface of this spiritual fruit.
“It seems that the cultivation has failed in all likelihood.”
Chun Ning shook his head at this moment, and without any hesitation, he directly picked the fruits from all the trees here one by one. down.
Since it took nearly a year to cultivate, I have to give it a try.
Back in the cave, Chu Ning released Ling Xiaobai, then took out a freshly picked fruit and handed it to him.
“嘤!”
Ling Xiaobai glanced at it, then showed a lack of interest and refused to eat.
Chun Ning glanced at the other person, this little guy was quite a ghost.
However, Chu Ning still chose to squeeze the little fruit open.
Suddenly, a ball of red pulp slipped from the spirit fruit, and at the same time a strong spiritual energy rushed towards his face.
“A very rich aura!”
Chun Ning looked at the fruit pulp that fell into the jade bowl, and his eyes flashed slightly at this moment.
“嘤!”
On the side, Ling Xiaobai, who had just ignored this, also jumped up.
Looking at the fruit pulp in the jade bowl, I was very greedy.
“Xiaobai, can this thing be eaten?”
Seeing Ling Xiaobai's appearance, Chu Ning asked with a smile.
“嘤!!”
Ling Xiaobai kept nodding.
Chun Ning suddenly laughed. Judging from the richness of this spiritual fruit, he felt that it must be of some use.
Instead of giving it to Ling Xiaobai directly, Chu Ning once again tried it with some ordinary rabbits he found in the nearby mountains yesterday.
Three days later, Chu Ning came to the cave with spring water next door.
Holding a spiritual fruit that he newly named Tieyang Fruit in his hand, he pinched it into a large bucket.
Although this Tieyang fruit is not big, there is not much pulp.
But after squeezing into the big bucket, the entire bucket was quickly dyed red.
Seeing this, Chu Ning jumped directly into the bucket and soaked it.
At the same time, I was thinking about the results of the experiments over the past few days in my mind.
“This Tie Yang Fruit can also temper the body, and the effect is much better than the previous Golden Orchid Fruit and Tie Yang Fruit.
The Spirit Rabbit who directly applied the fruit pulp was actually affected by it. No, it can only be applied after dilution.
At the same time, taking it directly will not have much effect.”
After several attempts, Chu Ning finally determined that this is Tillandsia. Enhanced version of fruit.
It is not like taking the golden orchid fruit, but soaking or applying it has better effect.
After Chu Ning tried it again with the spirit rabbit, he finally decided on the soaking method.
The main reason is that the absorption of Tieyang fruit is very slow, and the effect is better after soaking for a long time.
As for how much help it can bring to his body training, Chu Ning is not sure.
After all, he has now entered the body-refining bottleneck period. Before, he took the Golden Orchid Fruit, which could increase his proficiency by 2 points. Now, taking one pill a day can increase his proficiency by 1 point in ten days.
Even starting this month, this time has been extended to twelve days.
Obviously, the bottleneck becomes stronger towards the back.
The golden orchid fruit may become ineffective at any time.
At this moment, Chu Ning's body was soaked in the red warm water, and she began to experience the changes in her body.
What made Chu Ning frown slightly was that he didn't feel much in his body.
The usual burning sensation of body tempering did not appear.
This actually made Chu Ning's heart sink slightly.
He originally wanted to use the Tieyang fruit to see if it was more effective than the Golden Orchid fruit.
Now it seems a bit uncertain.
However, Chu Ning also observed that as he ran the Nine Evolution Body Refining Techniques, the red color in the barrel was slowly fading.
This means that the drug effect is indeed absorbed.
However, until all the red color in the water disappeared, the color returned to normal.
Chun Ning didn’t feel anything either.
Shaking his head and standing up from the bucket, Chu Ning wanted to give up, but after thinking about it, he still practiced the Jiuyan Body Refining Technique again by combining his movements on the spot.
After practicing again, Chu Ning was just about to stop.
Suddenly, a hot feeling surged from his limbs.
Chun Ning was slightly stunned at first, and the next moment, he was overjoyed.
Feeling the changes in his body, Chu Ning immediately stopped hesitating and practiced the Jiuyan Body Refining Technique again.
And follow Chu Ning’s movements to practice.
The burning feeling in the limbs and bones is getting stronger and stronger.
When Chu Ning practiced for the third time, this burning feeling reached its peak.
And then, when Chu Ning continued to practice, the burning sensation began to gradually decrease.
It wasn’t until Chu Ning completed the practice six times that they all disappeared.
Chun Ning immediately looked at the proficiency in his mind, and the next moment his face was filled with joy.
[Yanhuo Shenmu Kung (high-grade Xuanjie), first level (1754/5000)]
[Nine Evolution Body Refining Techniques, Volume 1, Continuous Tendons 964/1500]< br>
[The Art of Refining God, Second Level 945/2000]
1 point! The progress of Jiuyan Body Refining Technique unexpectedly improved by 1 point during this practice.
You must know that in the past few months, it took about 10 days for his Jiuyan Body Refining Technique to increase by 1 point under the influence of the Golden Orchid Fruit.
“This Tieyang Fruit is actually useful for breaking through the bottleneck of constant muscles!”
This discovery undoubtedly made Chu Ning extremely happy.
Although such a bottleneck breakthrough is not like using the Seven Star Spirit Fruit to achieve immortal skin or immortal bones, it is a major breakthrough in a short period of time.
However, you can have the opportunity to break through when facing bottlenecks.
That was enough to make Chu Ning extremely happy.
At this moment, Chu Ning picked up the peel of the Tieyang fruit again.
There are a few small, dark spiritual fruit seeds inside the peel.
Chun Ning put it away and put it into a small jade box.
There are a few spiritual fruit seeds inside, which he left behind when he was doing experiments yesterday or two days.
Although the previous Golden Orchid Fruit could not be cultivated, the newly cultivated Tieyang Fruit was different after all, and Chu Ning still had to give it a try.
Immediately, Chu Ning practiced the Flame Fire Divine Wood Skill cross-legged in the cave.
After half an hour of this, he opened his eyes.
“The Flame Fire Divine Wood Technique has not improved. It seems that the Iron Yang Fruit is not very helpful for the practice of Qi refining.
But in terms of body refining, it is indeed an unexpected surprise. . ”
At this moment, Chu Ning had time to think about the medicinal properties of this iron yang fruit.
Obviously, this Tie Yang Guo is completely different from the previous Tie Yang Guo and Golden Orchid Fruit.
The medicinal effects of those two spiritual fruits are exerted immediately after use.
After using the Iron Yang Fruit, you need to practice the Jiuyan Body Refining Technique to activate the medicinal effect.
The medicinal effect is hidden deeper, but the intensity of the medicinal effect is also greater.
"Is it possible that the medicinal effect of the Iron Yang Fruit is still partially hidden, and my current practice has not fully stimulated it?"
After Chu Ning flashed this thought, He was not in a hurry to use the Tieyang Fruit later to temper his body.
After all, he had only cultivated ten strains of Tieyang Fruit before, and the total number of them was less than 60 spiritual fruits.
And this fruit is useful for this body-refining bottleneck, so he can't waste it casually.
In the following days, Chu Ning continued to take Golden Orchid Fruit to practice the Jiuyan Body Refining Technique. What made Chu Ning slightly happy was when he practiced the Jiuyan Body Refining Technique after taking the Golden Orchid Fruit.
You can clearly feel the burning sensation in the limbs and bones from time to time.
As he thought, the medicinal effect of the iron yang fruit was not fully digested.
After practicing like this for five days, the proficiency of unceasing tendons unexpectedly increased by 1 point.
This time is shortened by half compared to simply taking Jinlan Guo before.
“Good stuff!”
After realizing that Tieyang Fruit was extremely crucial for his body refining, he focused all his energy on it in the next few days.
Chu Ning first transplanted fifty existing Yuanyang fruit and fifty orchid plants each to the same spiritual field.
It just so happens that the two spiritual fruits are about to bloom. In terms of time, if they are cultivated well.
In about half a year, we can even cultivate a new batch of Tieyang fruits.
As for the two hundred iron stem orchids before, the pollination of Jin Yuan Guo has just been completed again at this time.
After thinking about it for a while, Chu Ning gave up.
The orchids that were originally intended to be planted with golden orchids were transplanted some distance apart.
At the same time, about fifty Yuanyang fruit plants were cross-planted in it.
Anyway, the flowers of the iron stem orchid have not faded so quickly, and the Yuanyang fruit will bloom in about a few days.
Let’s just see if any new varieties can be produced by crossing these three types of pollen.
After all, I won’t be able to use so many golden orchid fruits in the future, and cultivating too many golden orchid fruits will be of no use.
After completing the transplantation, Chu Ning came to the medicine garden holding a small jade box.
After a few days, Chu Ning completed the production of Tieyang fruit seeds according to the Zongli Lingzhi seed production method.
Now Chu Ning also wants to try whether the Tieyang fruit can be cultivated directly.
Chun Ning took out a seed from the jade box, placed it in the spiritual soil, and then directly hit it with a hair-raising technique.
At the same time, his spiritual consciousness was released, carefully sensing this change.
The first hair-raising technique went on, but there was no reaction.
Chun Ning fired another activation technique without any hesitation.
After firing five triggering spells in succession, Chu Ning's eyes flashed slightly, with a hint of joy.
Because within the range of his spiritual consciousness, there seems to be some kind of life force emerging inside this seed.
“The hair-raising technique works!”
Realizing this, Chu Ning fired one activation technique after another.
Finally, after completing the twenty-fifth hair-raising surgery.
A slender green streak burst out of the black seed!
“This Tieyang fruit can be cultivated!”
Seeing this, Chu Ning suddenly felt heartbroken. I was overjoyed,
I immediately took out all the Tieyang fruit seeds from the jade box without hesitation, and then urged them to sprout one by one and planted them in the medicine garden.
Now that he discovered that the Iron Yang Fruit could be planted and cultivated, Chu Ning would use one Iron Yang Fruit every three days to increase his body refining speed.
We are also constantly producing Tie Yangguo seeds.
At the same time, the existing iron stem orchid and the blooming Yuanyang fruit completed a new round of pollination.
It is conceivable that Chu Ning will be able to harvest a batch of Tieyang fruits in less than a year.
This body-refining bottleneck problem that had troubled Chu Ning for a long time finally had the possibility of a breakthrough.
This morning, Chu Ning was busy in the medicine garden, but a voice came from outside the formation:
"Fellow Daoist Chu, Jiang is here to visit!"< br>
Hearing this voice, Chu Ning walked out of the medicine garden and returned to the semi-open stone room outside.
At the same time, the formation channel was directly opened.
After a while, Jiang Hongguang walked in from the passage.
"Fellow Daoist Jiang is on time."
Chun Ning said with a smile, but it was exactly half a year since the last time Jiang Hongguang sent the divided spiritual stones.
Jiang Hongguang smiled and said: "Of course we can't forget this."
As he said that, Jiang Hongguang's eyes fell on Chu Ning, and a look of surprise appeared on his face.
"Fellow Daoist Chu has reached the ninth level of Qi refining?"
Chu Ning smiled and nodded, "Luckily!"
Jiang Hongguang suddenly looked at Chu Ning with envy on his face.
“Fellow Daoist Chu is indeed extremely talented. He has already broken through to the ninth level of Qi refining at a young age, and there is hope for foundation building.
Jiang has been at the eighth level of Qi refining for many years. I don’t know when I will reach the ninth level of Qi Refining.
It seems that there is no hope for foundation building in this life.”
“Jiang Daoyou is too humble. You are not very young and still have a lot of money. Time." Chu Ning responded casually.
Jiang Hongguang laughed and said: "That's right, there are two things to do when I come to visit fellow Taoist this time."
As he said that, Jiang Hongguang took out a small bag of spirit from his storage bag. The stone was placed in front of Chu Ning.
“This is my share for the past six months. I am afraid that it will be inconvenient for fellow Taoists to carry them, so I have replaced them all with medium-grade spiritual stones.”
Chu Ning didn't have any excuses. He stretched out his hand to take it and said:
"Fellow Daoist Jiang is interested."
He did ask casually before, this is the middle-grade spirit in Qianhu Qiandao. The exchange ratio between stones and low-grade spiritual stones.
Jiang Hongguang is quite considerate of this.
“You’re welcome, Fellow Daoist Chu.” Jiang Hongguang said, and took out a red post with a smile.
While handing it to Chu Ning, he said:
"In ten days, the dog will be full moon, prepare a little wine, and invite fellow Taoists to come."
Chun Ning heard He was a little surprised, but he immediately reached out to take it and said with a smile:
"I said, "How can you say that Jiang Daoyou is so happy? It turns out that you are so happy to have a son. I am very happy. Mr. Chu will definitely be there by then."
Jiang Hongguang and his wife are both around forty years old. I have never heard them say they have descendants before.
Unexpectedly, Chu Ning was a little surprised to have an additional son at this age.
Hearing Chu Ning’s congratulations, Jiang Hongguang laughed.
After the two chatted for a few more words, Jiang Hongguang said goodbye and left.
Chun Ning began to think about what would be more appropriate to give as a gift to the other party.
Over the years, Chu Ning has actually stored a lot of things in his storage bag.
But many of these things are obtained by killing other monks.
It is naturally not appropriate to give these things to a one-month-old child. Moreover, I am afraid that someone will recognize these things in the future and bring disaster to them.
After thinking about it, Chu Ning still felt that it would be more appropriate to simply give him a few talismans.
However, this grade cannot be too low. Intermediate talismans are inevitable. As for what kind of talismans they are.
At this moment, Chu Ning's heart moved slightly.
He didn't have many mid-level and mid-level talismans in his hand, mainly those he bought at Yunhai Pavilion before.
But after experiencing the spiritual realm and some subsequent large and small battles, I only had one or two in my hand.
However, it seems that I can try to draw this intermediate-level talisman.
In fact, after reaching the stage of perfecting Qi refining and being able to make intermediate and low-grade talismans, Chu Ning had already begun to use this intermediate-level and mid-grade talisman to analyze the source of the talismans.
But before, the success rate of this intermediate and low-grade talisman has not increased.
Chun Ning did not try to make the intermediate-level talisman.
After Cen Zijin made this cloud pattern talisman pen two months ago, Chu Ning began to make more low-level talismans.
The success rate of making several low-level talismans now exceeds 70%.
You can indeed try to make the mid-level mid-level talisman.
Thinking of this, Chu Ning immediately came to the Talisman Making Room.
After taking out the tools, my mind began to think about an intermediate-level talisman called the Earth Arrow Talisman.
This talisman is the earth attribute defensive talisman that Chu Ning bought from Yunhai Pavilion.
The symbol source analysis has been completed a long time ago, and now it’s a good time to try it out.
The difficulty of making the mid-level talisman is indeed not low. After Chu Ning analyzed the source of the talisman, he could theoretically complete the making of this kind of talisman.
However, it is not easy to actually try it.
After all, this is a leapfrog talisman.
After trying dozens of talismans, Chu Ning finally succeeded in making the first talisman.
This kind of talisman making rate is the lowest since Chu Ning learned to make talismans.
However, after completing the first talisman, the subsequent success rate increased rapidly.
In the next few days, Chu Ning continued to practice.
The spell making rate quickly increased from only about 10% to nearly 30%.
The quality of this talisman is also constantly improving and stabilizing.
Chun Ning selected the three earth arrow talismans that he was most satisfied with, took a piece of jade and made a hollow jade pendant, and put all three talismans into the jade pendant.
When the time agreed by Jiang Hongguang came, Chu Ning left the cave and flew all the way to the center of Feihong Island.
Because there are guests from other islands coming today, Jiang Hongguang may also feel that it is not good for this second-level hidden spiritual vein to be known to too many people.
So this banquet was not held in his newly opened cave.
But it was located in the island owner’s mansion on the original island.
Because the spiritual energy of the first-order spiritual veins was dispersed before, Jiang Hongguang did not open a special cave.
Instead, a large courtyard was built in the center of the island as the island owner's mansion.
Chun Ning did not use the wind chasing shuttle, but directly used the divine wind to escape.
After he obtained this escape technique, he didn't use it much, and he wanted to take this opportunity to try it out.
Fei Dun arrived at the center of Feihong Island. From a distance, Chu Ning saw the courtyard of a mansion.
When Chu Ning entered Feihong Island for the first time, he also visited it once and quickly landed in front of this courtyard.
“Is this Senior Chu?”
As soon as Chu Ning landed in front of the gate, a fourth-level Qi Refining monk who was about twenty-five or six years old came forward and said respectfully asked.
Chun Ning nodded and said with some surprise:
“Do you recognize me?”
The monk immediately bowed and saluted:
"My master gave me a portrait and asked me to greet my senior here specially."
Hearing what this young man said, Chu Ning felt dumbfounded that Jiang Hongguang was so solemn.
Jiang Hongguang actually accepted a disciple, which surprised Chu Ning.
But considering that among the thousands of lakes and islands, the eighth level of Qi Refining can already be a small island owner, he felt it was normal.
Chun Ning had only taken a few steps into the door under the guidance of this young man, and Jiang Hongguang had already walked out quickly.
“Fellow Daoist Chu is here, Jiang is a little distant to greet me, please forgive me.”
Chun Ning bowed his hand towards the other party, “Fellow Daoist Jiang, you are polite.”
< br>The two said they were leaving, and Jiang Hongguang led Chu Ning up the hall.
The young man behind looked at Chu Ning's back with envy.
"I heard from Master that this senior Chu has reached the ninth level of Qi Refining, and he is younger than me."
The young man muttered slightly.
Although Chu Ning walked a little further, he still heard these words.
At this moment, he smiled and asked: "How many disciples has Jiang Daoyou accepted?"
When Jiang Hongguang heard this, he suddenly said with some embarrassment:
"Ashamed, there have been no disciples in the early years." When I have children, I just want to have a few juniors around me. I have accepted seven or eight disciples one after another, which is quite misleading, but it makes fellow Taoist Chu laugh. "
"It's nothing. These people are able to embark on the path of cultivation, thanks to the guidance of Taoist friend Jiang."
Chun Ning smiled and responded. He was just asking casually, but he didn't say anything. What else does it mean.
So I didn’t ask too much.
At this moment, the two of them entered the hall, and there were already many people sitting inside.
Jiang Hongguang also introduced everyone one by one.
Because Jiang Hongguang's own strength is not outstanding, Feihong Island only had first-order spiritual veins before.
Naturally, most of the people I made friends with were island owners from some of the surrounding islands.
There were eight guests in this hall. Chu Ning glanced at Yun and saw that only one middle-aged monk was at the ninth level of Qi Refining, and most of the others were at the eighth level.
Everyone was extremely surprised when they saw that Chu Ning had reached the ninth level of Qi Refining.
He is also extremely enthusiastic about Chu Ning.
After all, they had seen Chu Ning’s strength in the Thousand Island Competition a year ago.
At that time, Chu Ning was only at the eighth level of Qi Refining.
At this time, Jiang Hongguang had already introduced the last middle-aged monk at the ninth level of Qi Refining.
"Fellow Daoist Chu, this is Wen Yanchao from Shuiyun Island, Fellow Daoist Wen."
"Nice to meet you!"
After Jiang Hongguang said these words, Chu Ning and The middle-aged man named Wen Yanchao immediately raised his hands and saluted, and they both looked at each other.
Wen Yanchao was obviously a little curious about Chu Ning, a young ninth-level Qi refining monk.
What Chu Ning was thinking about at this moment was the identity of the other party.
"Shuiyun Island? The soul-fixing bead that I accidentally bought at the place where casual cultivators gathered before.
It seems that the person got it near Shuiyun Island."< br>
After Chu Ning arrived, two more people arrived one after another, and everyone arrived.
The people in this hall can be regarded as people with some status in this thousand lakes and islands, and they are arranged in a separate hall.
As for the rest of the people on the island, Jiang Hongguang arranged them in other locations.
When everyone came to the table, Jiang Hongguang wanted Chu Ning to sit at the top of the table, but naturally he refused no matter what.
In the end, Jiang Hongguang sat at the top as the master, with Chu Ning and Wen Yanchao on the left and right.
At this time, Yu Yuanxiu came out with the child in his arms, followed by Jiang Lan.
Everyone also took out the gifts they brought.
When Yu Yuanxiu came forward, Chu Ning took out the white jade pendant that he had prepared long ago.
The white jade itself is not a rare thing, so everyone was a little surprised when they saw Chu Ning taking out a pendant.
Chun Ning smiled at this moment and said: "This pendant should be used as a souvenir. Fellow Taoist, this son should have the spiritual roots to enter the cultivation realm.
There are three talismans inside for the little one. My nephew will use it for self-defense in the future.”
After hearing Chu Ning’s words, everyone suddenly realized.
Wen Yanchao smiled at this moment and said: "Everyone has seen the talisman technique of Fellow Daoist Chu for a long time, and this must be Fellow Daoist's proud work."
Chun Ning After hearing this, he immediately waved his hands and said:
"I can only draw some elementary talismans. It would be too shabby to take them out."
Chun Ning stopped, but everyone understood that this What is placed inside is naturally an intermediate talisman.
Everyone immediately couldn't help but take another look at the pendant.
The intermediate and low-grade talismans cost 200 spirit stones each. Chu Ning took three of them, which cost a full 600 spirit stones.
This is already as much as the income of some of the island owners here in half a year.
"This Chu Ning is quite generous. The income of a talisman master is indeed considerable."
No one has ever thought about the fact that what is inside is an intermediate-grade talisman.
After all, this intermediate-grade talisman is within the scope of Thousand Lakes and Thousand Islands, and it costs 500 spirit stones and up.
Even if the defensive talisman is of higher quality, it will cost more than 600 spirit stones.
No one thought that Chu Ning would take out more than a thousand spiritual stones as a greeting gift.
However, despite this, everyone at this table was a little more enthusiastic about Chu Ning.
After some exchanges at the wine table, everyone became somewhat familiar with each other.
While Jiang Hongguang went to other tables to toast, Wen Yanchao took the initiative to invite Chu Ning and said:
“Fellow Daoist Chu, I heard from Daoist Jiang that you spent most of your time practicing in seclusion.
After leaving customs this time, I wonder if you have time to visit me on Shuiyun Island for a few days?”
Hearing Wen Yanchao’s invitation, Chu Ning answered casually:
“ Since Wen Daoyou took the initiative to invite him, Chu will go to visit him immediately."
Wen Yanchao was a little surprised when he heard this. He and Jiang Hongguang have been friends for many years.
When I came to Feihong Island before, I once overheard and inquired about the young monk who helped his friend retain the jurisdiction of the island.
Jiang Hongguang’s reply was that Chu Ning had almost no contact with people outside.
So Wen Yanchao subconsciously thought that Chu Ning was a very lonely person.
But I didn’t expect that Chu Ning would agree so readily.
Chu Ning felt the color of the other party, and smiled slightly:
"Before, I wanted to practice hard to reach the ninth level of Qi refining, so I had less contact with others.
Cultivation during this period feels quite good. I am depressed and need to relax for a while. It would be great if I could go to Dao Wen's house. "
"Exactly, this practice requires relaxation and relaxation," Wen Yanchao heard. After saying this, he immediately smiled.
After Jiang Hongguang came back, Wen Yanchao told the story, and Island Master Jiang was also quite surprised.
So the two parties directly made an appointment to go to Shuiyun Island the next day.
In order to appear less abrupt, Chu Ning also stayed at Jiang Hongguang's house for a while after the meal.
After everyone else left, Chu Ning stood up and left.
As for Wen Yanchao, he said he lived in Jiang Hongguang's mansion.
The three of them agreed to set off together the next day when Chu Ning arrived again.
That night, Jiang Hongguang and Yu Yuanxiu saw that the jade pendant contained an intermediate-grade talisman. They were extremely surprised and would not talk about it for the time being.
Chun Ning returned to his cave and immediately took out the soul-fixing beads and the jade slips he had received from He Mingjin before and looked at them carefully.
“This Shuiyun Island was previously called Shuiyun Cave. It is said that Shuiyun Cave really produced a great master, but there is no way to verify the details.”
Chun Ning looked at this information. , his eyes flickered slightly, thinking about some possibility.
Early the next morning, Chu Ning went directly to Jiang Hongguang's mansion after performing some spells on Medicine Garden and Lingzhi.
The three of them came to Shuiyun Island together.
"Is this island like this all year round? No wonder this place is called Shuiyun Island."
After Chu Ning landed on the island, he looked at it in surprise.
I saw that although the spiritual energy of this island is not particularly strong, it looks like a relatively advanced first-order spiritual vein.
But the mist was so thick that even Chu Ning’s eyesight could not see through it at all.
However, after Chu Ning tried to use his spiritual sense to explore, there was no obstacle.
