Chapter 168 Coming to Collect the Island
"Excuse me, are you Daoist Liu Ping Liu?"
Chun Ning looked at the female cultivator in front of her who was also at the seventh level of Qi Refining, although she had some vague guesses in her heart.
But still asked very cautiously:
"Fellow Taoist came to see me, what did you bring?"
The middle-aged female cultivator reached out and took out a Zhang Fu placed it in front of Chu Ning and asked:
"I wonder if fellow Taoists recognize this talisman?"
"Flame Wing Talisman!"
Chun Ning Seeing this talisman, his eyes flashed slightly.
This talisman is a magic talisman made from the flame-winged bird after he practiced the Fiery Flame Technique.
He was the only one who could control it, so he gave it to Cen Zijin as a token for others to hand over to Chu Ning when it was inconvenient for her to get the talisman and elixir.
When the woman heard Chu Ning call out the name of the talisman, her face was filled with joy.
"It is indeed Fellow Daoist Liu. The little lady has been here for half a day every day for the past two months.
Today I can see Fellow Daoist Liu."
said As she spoke, the woman took out a storage bag from her arms and handed it to Chu Ning.
"Please help me, fellow Taoist, to hand over this storage bag and tell you something.
It will be clear after reading the contents inside."
Chun Ning reached out to take it. He came over, nodded and said: "I will convey it."
"The little woman will leave first."
As soon as the female cultivator left, Chu Ning followed closely. Got to the inn.
Coming to a deserted place, Chu Ning briefly checked the contents of the storage bag, and then quickly took out a piece of talisman paper.
This talisman paper was not made into a talisman, but a few words were written on it.
“I have gone to Yaochi Palace, don’t worry.
This transformation spell is very useful and has helped me a lot.
Yaochi Palace is too far away from here , No need to come to me, we will meet again if we are destined.
——Cen Zijin. "
Looking at the line written on the talisman, Chu Ning breathed a sigh of relief.
He did not continue to look at anything else and returned directly to the cave on Feihong Island.
When he arrived at the outermost stone room, facing the lake, Chu Ning took out the items in the storage bag one by one.
In addition to the talisman paper with the words written on it, there is also a small bag of medium-grade spiritual stones, a jade slip, numerous elixirs, and a set of formation equipment.
Cen Zijin wrote something on everything.
Looking at these things, Chu Ning seemed to see Cen Zijin sitting opposite him, with a bright smile on his face, speaking softly as his eyes moved.
“These spiritual stones are all sold by your talismans and elixirs, and they are not divided into Cen Workshop.”
“I have collected some elixirs for refining elixirs. Take a look. Use it or not, those spiritual fruits are for Xiaobai to eat.”
“This set of formation equipment was developed by me in recent years. It combines many ancient formations with what you are using now. The formations can be used directly together.
After the formation is set up, it is not easy even for a Golden Core cultivator to break through the defense.
The specific formation and usage methods are engraved on it. In the jade slips.
At the same time, some basic techniques of identifying formations and some methods of breaking formations are recorded in the jade slips. Whether you continue in this thousand lakes and islands or go to other places, you should They can all be used. "
...
Chun Ning looked at the empty position opposite him, then turned his head and looked at the rippling blue lake outside.
The mood is extremely complicated.
I was both happy to know that Cen Zijin was fine and melancholy that my beloved was leaving.
After a long time, Chu Ning waved his hand, and everything on the stone table, except for some spiritual fruits, was put into the storage bag.
Immediately, Chu Ning released Ling Xiaobai from the spirit beast bag.
“Xiaobai, these spirit fruits are all yours.”
Hearing Chu Ning’s words, Lingxiaobai called out, full of joy.
At the same time, the little guy was also a little confused.
“Why so many?”
“These are all given to you by Cen Zijin. She left here and won’t be back in a short time.” Chu Ning explained.
When Ling Xiaobai heard what Chu Ning said, he called out again, and then ate a spiritual fruit into his belly.
Seeing the little guy's happy expression, Chu Ning had a smile on his face.
“Come on, little guy, let’s practice the Xuanming Jue with you and see if it can make you feel better quickly.
I’m still waiting for you to go somewhere together. "
While speaking, Chu Ning quickly started to use the magic formula, and at the same time, he uttered some obscure spells in his mouth.
A mana channel connects Chu Ning and Ling Xiaobai.
Suddenly, the spiritual energy quickly gathered towards Ling Xiaobai.
“It’s really different after building the foundation!”
About an hour later, Chu Ning stopped, although it also consumed a lot of mana.
But the overall appearance is not very difficult.
This is completely different from the previous need to continuously take elixir supplements in the ancient sect ruins.
After Ling Xiaobai returned to the spirit beast room, Chu Ning calmed down and began to think about what she would do next.
There doesn’t seem to be much pressure in terms of cultivation.
I continue to practice the Yanhuo Shenmu Kung Fu, and I still have a lot of Qingmu Yuanyang Pills in my body. Some of them have already been refined, and those who don’t have them can continue to refine their spirits.
And these pills can support my practice for a long time without any problem.
Since I can make elixirs, I no longer have any trouble with this elixir.
The difficulty is to refine some elixirs. After all, there is no channel like Cen Zijin.
Whether it is buying elixirs or selling things in your hands in exchange for spiritual stones, it is no longer convenient.
But Chu Ning is not too anxious.
He has just established his foundation. This stage is naturally focused on consolidating his realm, and he is not in a hurry to take too many pills to practice.
"There is no problem in refining Qi, refining body..."
Chu Ning looked at the proficiency in his mind at this moment.
[Yanhuo Shenmu Kung (high grade Xuan level), second level (1667/10000)]
[Nine Evolution Body Refining Techniques, Volume 1, Immortal Soul (0/3000) )]
[Divinity Refining Technique, Second Level (2000/2000)]
Actually, Chu Ning has always been a little curious. This Jiuyan Body Refining Technique is obviously a body refining technique, so how could it be The realm of the immortal soul appears.
"Is it possible that this body-refining technique can also achieve the effect of strengthening the consciousness and stabilizing the soul after practicing it later?"
Chun Ning was muttering secretly in his heart at this moment.
Thinking about it this way, he felt that his idea was really very possible.
After all, this Qi refining will have a god-refining effect after it reaches the foundation building stage.
Body refining and Qi refining have the same goal. After practicing, it is naturally possible to strengthen the spiritual consciousness.
"If my inference is correct, then my consciousness may be able to grow rapidly without continuing to practice divine arts.
Taking advantage of this period, I can try Let’s give it a try.”
Chun Ning thought to himself, and immediately began to practice the Jiuyan Body Refining Technique in this training room.
Anyway, during this period of time, he did not have any training methods behind the divine refining technique.
Just in time to see the effect of practicing the Flame Fire Divine Wood Technique and the Nine-Evolution Body Refining Technique on the growth of spiritual consciousness after building the foundation.
So, for the next period of time, Chu Ning just stayed in the cave.
If you don’t go out through the front door, you won’t take a step toward the second door.
Practice Xuanming Jue with Ling Xiaobai every day to help the other party continue to recover.
At the same time, practice Yanhuo Divine Wood Technique and Jiuyan Body Refining Technique every day.
Because the foundation has just been established, and the Nine Evolution Body Refining Technique has also just been cultivated to the immortal soul.
Therefore, Chu Ning did not use elixirs or spiritual fruits for both of his cultivations.
And Chu Ning did not absorb the wood essence energy of the Iron Soul Flower.
What reassured him was that after the Iron Soul Flower matured, it contained a large amount of wood spirit.
But if Chu Ning hadn’t taken the initiative to absorb this wood spirit energy, it would not have leaked out.
This flower can bloom for two or three years.
This practice lasts for another month.
On this day, after Chu Ning completed the day's practice, he sat cross-legged in the practice room.
I began to think about my cultivation situation this month.
“My cultivation talent is pretty good, but without any help from other resources.
Even with a second-order high-grade spiritual vein, this speed should be at its peak. ”
[Yanhuo Shenmu Kung (high grade Xuan level), second level (1727/10000)]
[Nine Evolution Body Refining Techniques, Volume 1, Immortal Soul (30/3000)]
< br>[Divinity Refining, Second Level (2000/2000)]
For a month, Chu Ning maintained a long practice time every day.
Without the help of elixirs and spiritual fruits.
The Yanhuo Shenmu Gong has maintained a proficiency increase of about 2 points every day, which is faster than before.
Obviously it is also related to the faster speed of absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth after foundation building.
As for the Jiuyan Body Refining Technique, it can only increase by about 1 point. As for the spiritual consciousness, Chu Ning can also feel that it is indeed growing, but the speed is not fast.
After a month of practice, the outward expansion range of his spiritual consciousness was only about one foot.
If he hadn't paid special attention, he wouldn't have noticed this subtle change.
“For the next practice, we still need to use some resources!”
Chun Ning made up his mind.
In fact, after entering the foundation building stage, it is not slow to still have such an increase.
The talents the system gave me are indeed outstanding.
However, when any great cultivator grows up, he not only has talent, but also countless resources.
Chun Ning casually took out the jade bottles containing Qingmu Yuanyang Pill and Tieyang Fruit from the storage bag.
These two things were used by him during his previous stages of Qi refining and unceasing tendons.
But I don’t know if it will still be useful after building the foundation now and reaching the immortal soul stage.
“After all, the Qingmu Yuanyang Pill was refined, and the Iron Yang Fruit was effective in breaking through my bottleneck.
He said that it would be equally effective for his current practice, but the specific effect would have to be tried again. ”
Speaking, Chu Ning stood up directly and went to the stone room with the hot spring next door.
Crushed the Tieyang fruit into the bathing vat, and while jumping into it, He began to practice the Jiuyan Body Refining Technique.
An hour later, Chu Ning slowly walked out of the stone room, muttering to himself
"Sure enough, he broke through and entered. After the soul-destroying stage, the effect of the Iron Yang Fruit is still weakened.
Originally, it was necessary to practice the Jiuyan Body Refining Technique six times to fully activate the medicinal effect of Tieyang Fruit.
But now it only needs to be practiced four times to fully activate it. ”
While muttering like this, Chu Ning felt the cultivation proficiency in his mind.
He had just used two Iron Yang Fruits in succession to practice, and he had already tested the effect of the medicine. .
[Nine Evolution Body Refining Techniques, Volume 1, Immortal Soul (33/3000)]
Two Iron Yang Fruits can increase the proficiency by 3 points. It doesn't seem to be slow, and it is even more than the 1 point increase from the continuous muscle.
But Chu Ning knew that this was because he had not entered the bottleneck period of body training.
At that time, it was still possible to rise by 1 point when it entered the bottleneck period.
In comparison, the effectiveness is still weaker.
“But it’s not bad, at least I have something that can speed up my cultivation.”
Chun Ning is basically satisfied with the effect of Tieyang Fruit.
Coupled with daily practice, you can increase your proficiency by 2 points a day.
After all, this has entered a higher level of cultivation.
It is naturally impossible to expect rapid progress in a few months like before.
After taking a short break from practicing the divine art, Chu Ning picked up the Qingmu Yuanyang Pill after refining the spirit and began to practice the Yanhuo Divine Wood Art.
Although there is no third-level method of practicing the divine refining technique, this divine refining technique is also effective in restoring spiritual consciousness.
Chun Ning naturally would not say that he would stop practicing completely without the third level of cultivation method.
After a few more hours, Chu Ning in the training room finally ended his attempted training for the day.
At the same time, there was a faint smile on his face.
[Yanhuo Shenmu Kung (high grade Xuan level), second level (1730/10000)]
After refining the spirit, the Qingmu Yuanyang Pill can increase the amount of Yanhuo Shenmu by 3 points. proficiency.
This effect undoubtedly surprised Chu Ning.
In this way, in the early stage of foundation building, he no longer even has to think about finding other elixirs.
“Grow the main materials such as Yuanyang Fruit by yourself, and buy the other auxiliary alchemy materials. You don’t have to worry too much about the cultivation resources at this stage.
In the following period, There should be no problem if you continue to practice steadily.”
...
While Chu Ning was practicing with peace of mind, white light flashed in the Qianhong Island teleportation array, and several figures appeared.
Several people wore robes of different colors, but they all had the word "League" embroidered on their sleeves.
It means that these are people from the Thousand Island League.
Although the Thousand Islands Alliance is controlled by six major families, the Thousand Lakes and Thousand Islands are too large to be managed by just relying on family members.
So after so many years of development, almost every family has absorbed some casual cultivators and some small families to enrich their own strength.
For example, some law enforcement and patrol teams, as well as some foreign affairs liaison matters, are basically carried out by these people.
And this also allows the direct descendants of the six major families to practice with peace of mind.
The group of ten people entering Qianhong Island at this moment is such a team.
Although he is not a direct descendant of the six major families, he still represents the Thousand Islands Alliance, so the island owner Jiang Hongguang does not dare to neglect.
After getting the news, he led Yu Yuanxiu, Jiang Lan and a group of disciples to the cave to greet him early.
"Jiang Hongguang of Feihong Island has met all the seniors and fellow Taoists in the alliance."
I saw that the team was led by two monks with perfect Qi refining skills, and the cultivation levels of the other eight people were also the same. It is the late stage of Qi refining.
Jiang Hongguang became more polite even though he was horrified in his heart.
Originally, he just wanted to call him Taoist friend, so he added the word "senior" in front.
The leader, a Qi Refining Perfection monk, was in his forties, good-looking, with a white face and no beard, and a somewhat arrogant expression.
"You are Jiang Hongguang, and my name is Xiao Liebo. I am here to announce something to you on behalf of the Thousand Islands Alliance."
When I heard the man named Xiao Liebo speak, The tone was quite unkind, and Jiang Hongguang's heart suddenly skipped a beat.
However, he still said with a smile on his face:
"Senior Xiao, please give your orders, we will definitely support you."
Seeing Jiang Hongguang's cooperation, Xiao Liebo nodded with satisfaction, and then told a piece of news that made Jiang Hongguang's expression change drastically.
“Because there have been a series of second-order hidden spiritual veins appearing in Thousand Lakes and Thousand Islands recently, several alliance leaders decided after discussion.
Any island where a second-order hidden spiritual vein appears without a foundation-building monk will be Let it go so that the alliance can reallocate resources more rationally."
As he spoke, Xiao Liebo stared directly at Jiang Hongguang.
"You guys discovered the second-order hidden spiritual veins a few years ago, right?"
Jiang Hongguang's face changed drastically, and he said with a look of embarrassment:
"We It is true that the second-level hidden spiritual vein was discovered on Feihong Island, but that was only after we obtained jurisdiction over the island.
Now that we are suddenly asked to give up the island, where should we go to practice? "
"Don't worry, the alliance will naturally arrange another first-order spiritual island for you, and will also give you appropriate compensation."
Xiao Liebo was vaguely impatient when he spoke at this moment. color.
"Don't think about saying anything else. You have been cultivating this second-level spiritual vein for several years, and you have already earned it.
Is it possible that you really want to disobey the alliance leader's order?"
As he spoke, Xiao Liebo looked at Jiang Hongguang, and then glanced at the other people behind him.
When everyone heard Xiao Liebo’s unkind words, their expressions changed drastically.
Although the management of the Thousand Islands Alliance is relatively lax, everyone knows that the order of the alliance leader cannot be violated casually.
The Alliance Leader’s Order does not represent a certain family, but the six major families.
It is said that there was a foundation-building monk who openly disobeyed the alliance leader's order, and was eventually killed by six major families.
No matter how reluctant Jiang Hongguang was, he did not dare to say such words at this moment.
Seeing this, Xiao Liebo snorted lightly, his eyes full of pride.
“You have one month to move away from this island, otherwise we, the Thousand Island Alliance, will expel you directly.”
After Jiang Hongguang listened, he nodded somewhat dejectedly.
He has always been aware of current affairs, otherwise he would not have such a low profile in front of Chu Ning.
However, he seemed to suddenly remember something.
He gritted his teeth and looked up at Xiao Liebo.
"Senior Xiao, this junior is willing to withdraw from this second-level spiritual vein and practice on other islands.
However, there is a Taoist friend who has set up a cave on this island. Can he continue to work on this island? Practicing on the island?”
Xiao Liebo obviously had a general understanding of the situation on the island before coming.
At this moment, his brows wrinkled slightly.
“You are talking about Chu Ning, who helped you successfully guard the Thousand Island Competition a few years ago?”
After Jiang Hongguang nodded, Xiao Libo immediately turned serious. Road:
"No, since this island has been taken back to the alliance for redistribution, naturally he can no longer be allowed to stay on this island to practice.
I heard that his cave is located at a location called Yanfeng, and there may be a tunnel there. Second-level hidden spiritual vein.
Otherwise he would allow you to practice on this hidden spiritual vein?”
Hearing this, Jiang Hongguang’s expression changed slightly.
He was very grateful to Chu Ning, so he wanted to help Chu Ning fight for it, but he didn't expect that he would be rejected directly.
He opened his mouth to say something more, but Xiao Liebo didn't give him a chance at all. He immediately waved his hand and said:
"Stop talking, lead the way to Yanfeng , a late-stage Qi-refining monk does not have the qualifications.”
Under the gaze of two perfect Qi-refining monks and so many late-stage Qi-refining monks, Jiang Hongguang was reluctant.
At this moment, we can only take a few people to Yanfeng.
Seeing this, Jiang Lan also followed behind everyone.
Yu Yuanxiu wanted to dissuade him, but gave up after thinking about it and led others to follow him.
She knew that Fellow Daoist Chu was not as temperamental as her husband. She thought that since she was a woman after all, if there was any conflict, she could help to calm it down.
