Cheng Ling secretly sighed that the world was really small. He never expected that he would actually find his father's body after accidentally buying a few alchemy books from the stall owner.
With a move of his right hand, he took out the meteor fire and floated it under the corpse, and began to burn it. It didn't take long for the corpses to be burned. Cheng Ling collected the ashes into a jade box, thinking that if he had a chance to encounter them in the future, he would give the ashes and the books to the stall owner.
Bai Suzhen watched him finish all this quietly and asked curiously: "Brother Ling, what are you doing and why do you want to collect his ashes?"
Cheng Ling said: "Do you still remember the stall owner where I bought alchemy books in Canglangdaofang City? The owner of this corpse is the stall owner's father."
"Oh, Brother Ling, you are so kind-hearted. You can remember it so clearly even if you only met once."
"It's easy! We'll meet again if we have the chance. There's nothing interesting to see here anymore. Let's go back and meet the Purple Lightning Black Turtle again!"
"good!"
The two of them exited the circular cave and came to the fork in the road.
Cheng Ling entered the formation and saw that the purple electric black turtle was still desperately trying to attract lightning and bombard it. He looked at it for a long time and always felt that the energy of thunder and lightning was very helpful to him. Now he has a middle-grade thunder sword, and he also has a thunder sword in his mind.
If you can really enter the purple electric black turtle's cave, you will probably be able to improve your cultivation very quickly, and you will also be able to speed up your understanding of thunder swordsmanship. He secretly thought to himself, it would be better to fool him first and see if this purple electric black turtle can be used by him.
He took two steps closer, made a haha through the transparent formation film, and said: "The old man is indeed very advanced. If my formation continues for another one or two years, you will destroy it! Not yet!" May I ask what you call me?"
The old man paused and complained secretly in his heart. He didn't expect that this kid's formation was so strong that he would be able to blast it for a year or two. But his face didn't show it, and he said angrily: "Zhuzi, quickly cancel the formation, I may spare your life, otherwise when I break out of the formation, you will die!"
Cheng Ling chuckled lightly and said, "Then, old man, keep bombarding! I'll go out to the island for a walk first, and after you've bombarded me for more than half a year, I'll come back to reinforce the formation!"
The old man is very anxious, if I really reinforce it once every six months, then won’t I have to be sealed in the cave forever? He hurriedly shouted: "My friend, stay here. It is fate that we can meet each other. We have no grudges at all. How can we cancel the formation?"
Cheng Ling said: "Looking at your posture, old man, it's obvious that your cultivation level is very high. If I cancel the formation, I'm afraid I will be destroyed by you right away. It's not cost-effective!"
The old man secretly hated him and said bitterly: "How do you treat me?"
"Let's put it this way, judging from the old man's ability, the formation on this island must not have been set up by you. May I ask how you entered the island?"
"If I tell you, you will cancel the formation and let me out?"
"It's up to you whether you want to let me go or not, but if you can't meet such a small request, then this junior will have no choice but to seal you here first!"
What is the origin of this kid? He is so incompetent and his partial formation is so powerful. Is he the master of this island? The old man was secretly angry, but there was really nothing he could do.
He pondered for a while and then said: "I also entered this place by chance. At that time, I was attracted by the thunder and lightning power of the Thunder Lingzhu, and I used the thunder and lightning power it erupted to break through the formation and enter this island."
"Oh! Thunder Spirit Beads? How many did you see?"
"I saw two. One was detonated by me to break through the formation, and the other was brought into the cave to help me practice!"
Cheng Ling nodded and asked, "Do you only see this island here?"
"No, hundreds of years ago, this place used to be a group of islands. I have been here once, and there were not so many precious spiritual trees and medicinal herbs. But then, for some reason, those islands disappeared one by one, leaving only this One, and two Thunder Spirit Beads were found.”
Cheng Ling's heart moved. It seemed that what was recorded in the handbook should be true. Since there is a treasure like the Thunder Spirit Pearl here, it must also be a secret existence. Only by breaking the formation outside can those islands be revealed.
The owner of the withered bones must have learned these secrets and came here to hunt for the treasure, but I don’t know why he was seriously injured and died. Could there be more powerful monsters on other islands?
He was thinking hard here, but the old man couldn't wait any longer. He then said: "Little friend, I have told you everything, can you revoke the seal?"
Cheng Ling glanced at him and said calmly: "I can revoke the seal, but you have to recognize me as your master!"
"What!" The old man was furious and cursed: "Huangkou kid, who do you think you are, you actually let me recognize you as my master? I'm not afraid of backlash!"
Cheng Ling laughed and said, "Whether you can withstand the backlash is my business. I just ask you if you are willing. Also, since I can arrange the formation to seal you, and I can also break the formation on the outer islands. Don’t you want to know what treasures are hidden on other islands?”
This is like giving me a sweet date with a slap on the stick. Cheng Ling secretly smiled in his heart. With the methods recorded in those golden-page books, I am not afraid of your backlash.
The old man was speechless and very moved. It has only been a few decades since he discovered this island. In these decades, he has devoured a large number of spiritual fruits on the island, not only breaking through to the transformation stage, but also reaching its peak. If there were any spiritual beings on other islands, it wouldn't be faster to improve one's cultivation level.
He was silent for a long time and then asked: "The woman before was also a monster? Does she also recognize you as her master?"
When Cheng Ling smiled, he knew that the old man was feeling a little relieved. He quickly sent a message to Bai Suzhen and asked her to cooperate with him. Bai Suzhen naturally agreed and came to the sealing formation and said, "Yes, my true form is an anemone python. If you hadn't taken advantage of the location, I wouldn't have lost to you!"
She still resented her defeat at the hands of the old man. Cheng Ling smiled bitterly. Sister Bai is really stubborn. Didn't she just lose the fight? What's the big deal? Now the turtle is not just allowed to be rounded and flattened by the two of them!
The old man thought for a while and said: "It is impossible to recognize you as my master. At worst, I have sworn an oath of heaven and will not take action against you!"
Cheng Lingshan said: "In that case, old man, please slowly destroy this seal. Sister Bai and I will go out and break the formation!"
After saying that, he grabbed Bai Suzhen, turned around and left!
The old man gritted his teeth and endured without calling them, but just watched them leave coldly.
After Cheng Ling took Bai Suzhen out of the passage, he returned to the entrance of the cave. Bai Suzhen asked: "Brother Ling, what should we do if the turtle refuses to recognize his master? Otherwise, we can lead him outside. With the strength of you and me, we will definitely kill him!"
Cheng Ling said calmly: "Don't worry, let him survive for a few days first. Killing him is not the best way. I have read the notes left by the withered bones. There must be some mystery in the island group here, and there may be a big opportunity." !”
Bai Suzhen said excitedly: "Really? How about we break the formation first!"
Cheng Ling shook his head and said: "At this time, it is not the best time to break the formation. Let's just practice for a while. My cultivation level is too low. Sister Bai, you can also try to see if you can break through the transformation!"
"But what if the turtle wants to break out of the cave from somewhere else?"
"Then let's bet! Bet that his brain is not bright and he can't think of rushing out of the cave elsewhere. Let's leave him alone for a month, and then go back and take a look after a month. Now, seize the time to improve his cultivation. I also have to take the time to go out. Look at the formation outside the island!”
"Okay! I will move the courtyard outside the formation into the island first, and I can settle down here. By the way, let's give this island a name!"
"Well, Sister Bai, just pick the one you like!"
Bai Suzhen said excitedly: "Since there are many spiritual fruits here, let's call it Lingguo Island!"
Cheng Ling nodded, not caring about the name. Bai Suzhen left happily, going to move the entire courtyard on the edge of the formation here!
Cheng Ling sat down cross-legged, thinking about his future practice. At present, the improvement of cultivation is still the most important thing. In the past few years, I have only focused on breaking formations, and I have put aside the practice of swordsmanship, spells, and body skills. It is time to pick it up again.
In addition, the kung fu and swordsmanship in his mind were not well practiced, and he also had to practice the top-notch mid-grade kung fu secrets that he had collected. After all this, time is still very tight. We need to improve ourselves as soon as possible so that we can return to the mainland to avenge our master.
Although Bai Suzhen is by his side and with her help, it will be easy to destroy Chen Cheng's family. But subconsciously, he didn't want her to be involved in his grudges. Bai Suzhen can help once or twice, but she can't always be by her side.
One day, he will have to face all the hardships in the monastic world by himself. After several years of formation deductions, he has gained a lot of confidence. Even if his cultivation level is not high, as long as he uses the terrain and formation methods, he can still play with the monsters at the peak of their transformation in the palm of his hand!
Moreover, he had a premonition that Bai Suzhen would be involved in his grudges, and his monastic career would cause many unknown tribulations in the future. It is better to do it with your own strength, which can not only spur you, but also play a role in tempering.
He thought about it and decided on his future training plan. The formation path had already reached the sixth level. If he wanted to improve it again, it would not be a matter of a few years, so he could put down the formation path temporarily. Mainly focusing on cultivation, swordsmanship, and body skills. You should also take some time to study alchemy every day.
There are many records of alchemy in the manuscripts left by the owner of the withered bones, and he is also a sixth-grade alchemy master. As long as he practices diligently, plus the materials he collected and the herbs on Lingguo Island, he can make alchemy in a short time. There will be a big improvement within.
With the alchemy technique, there is another auxiliary method for cultivation, which will be much more convenient for future cultivation. Especially in the handbook, there is a record of an elixir that uses the inner elixir of monsters, which is of great benefit to the cultivation of the golden elixir stage.
Cheng Ling believes that in just two years, he will be able to reach the state of perfecting the golden elixir. By then, it will be time to return to the mainland and collect debts from the Chen Cheng family!
