After Yun Haitang's explanation, Chen Ping had a clearer understanding of the construction of the virtual bridge.
There are some discrepancies between what Yun Haitang said and what is written in popular science books, or it may be more detailed.
Even if you don't build a virtual bridge when advancing to the fourth level of foundation building, you will have a smaller chance of advancing as you slowly improve. Chen Ping has proficiency, and it is highly likely that he will improve.
A considerable number of casual cultivators will adopt this path when they cannot obtain resources.
However, such a fourth-level foundation building is much different from monks of the same level in terms of the speed and capacity of condensation of liquid true energy, which means that the combat power will be greatly reduced, and it will continue to have an impact.
It is possible to drive to the next city without a highway, but the speed will be very slow. As a result, the city's infrastructure has been greatly reduced, and many aspects of development have been hindered.
There is no possibility of becoming a first-tier city anymore.
More or less the gain outweighs the loss.
'It is better to choose to build virtual bridges as much as possible. This is an infrastructure with far-reaching impact. ,
'You have to go to Lingxiao Sect. ,
After Yun Haitang left, Chen Ping took out his money bag, weighed it, and clattered a large bag, making a crisp sound of spiritual stones hitting each other.
'Quite a few. , Chen Ping was delighted.
Open the bag and count the rewards from the demon-slaying battle.
In addition to the spiritual stone, there is also a piece of yellow paper recording the details of the distribution of property.
In this battle to slay demons, a lot of demonic cultivators' belongings were seized, including various magical weapons, books, elixirs and other properties. However, many demonic cultivating items may not be suitable for monks like them.
So all of them were exchanged for spiritual stones.
[Mid-grade spiritual stones: 2,000. Simple brand 5 yuan. Aiki Pill: 100 bottles. Qi-Building Pill: 100 bottles. ]
Not bad.
Two thousand mid-grade spiritual stones are the largest single profit so far.
With this spiritual stone and the income from drawing talismans, I won't have to worry about living expenses for at least the next five years.
You can practice with peace of mind.
Chen Ping put away the spirit stones and planned to buy some medicine packages for body refining after a while.
…
The next day, he said hello to Yu Lingchun, put on his defensive shield, and shot his sword into the sky with a whoosh.
Go to Lingxiao Sect.
His sword control skills are currently at the level of "Grandmaster: 997/1000".
The sword-driving skill below this level is fully equipped with sword-driving skills, which saves spiritual energy and is extremely fast.
The sword handling process is very smooth and flexible.
Even if you encounter an attack, you can easily dodge it.
'While I'm on my way, I can brush up on my proficiency in swordsmanship and see what the effect will be after reaching the "Grandmaster" level. ,
After a stick of incense.
[Spell: Sword Control: Perfection. 】
Complete?
This is his first foundation-building spell that reaches full level.
'From this point of view, the highest level of spells in the Qi training stage is "expert", and the highest level of spells in the foundation building stage is "grandmaster" level. ,
Chen Ping understood.
He couldn't wait to try out the difference between the magic in the "perfect" state and before it was perfect.
Let’s try the fallen leaves first.
I found an open place to avoid being attacked by potential demon cultivators when I tried sword control.
Then relax and let your body fall freely.
The flying sword is firmly attached to the foot like a magnet. An invisible layer of sword light wraps around the entire body, spinning freely and falling.
Then it suddenly turned a corner and shot straight into the sky again.
Draw a perfect arc.
'The flexibility has been greatly improved, and there is no need to worry about falling. ,
'And, turning, adjusting angles, and even doing handstands are much smoother. ,
Chen Ping lowered his altitude again and entered the forest, using big trees as obstacles.
Yujian shuttled quickly, tried various sharp turns, and evaded the big trees, rising and falling.
All is clear.
Ability to practice an ordinary spell to a level that is beyond the reach of ordinary people.
It just feels great.
Chen Ping was in a happy mood and flew towards Lingxiao Sect with his sword.
In less than half an hour, he landed in front of the Lingxiao Sect Mountain Gate.
He raised his head and glanced at Lingxiao Sect.
As a guest of the Lingxiao Sect, the last time I came to the Lingxiao Sect was to use the Foundation Establishment Pool ten years ago.
I never thought that ten years would pass in a blink of an eye.
And that time, we did not actually enter the Lingxiao Sect. We only entered the foundation building cave from the side, which can only be regarded as a glimpse.
'As a guest of a sect, but I haven't been to the sect for ten years, I am like no one else. ,
Chen Ping couldn't help but laugh at himself.
After showing his identity token at the gate of the mountain and explaining the reason for entering the mountain, a disciple watching the mountain led the way into the Lingxiao Sect.
Along the winding mountain road, you will see birds singing and flowers fragrant along the way, the mountain is green, and there is a white mist everywhere. There are no magnificent buildings on the mountain, but more dojos and caves.
The most high-end spiritual places often appear in their simplest forms.
On the way, from time to time you can see some disciples meditating on the spot or monks practicing magic.
When they see Chen Ping coming in his guest robe, most of them will stop and give a slight salute.
In the dojo, Chen Ping also saw some young disciples from the Ning Mansion. Since the head of the Ning Mansion met with misfortune, the Ning Mansion moved his family into the Lingxiao Sect. As Ning Xiaoqi was the only direct disciple of the great elder, this was not a problem.
Lingxiao Sect has three peaks, which used to be the main activity areas of the three golden elixirs.
After the leader and another elder died, the great elder moved to the main peak and has now become the new leader of Lingxiao Sect.
When entering the inner gate, the leader conducted a handover and checked Chen Ping's identity token and the special token for meeting Jin Dan again, and then another monk continued to lead the way.
Finally, he stopped in the courtyard outside the leader's reception room.
"Senior Chen, please wait a moment while this junior goes in to announce." The leading monk said respectfully.
"Thank you, fellow Taoist." Chen Ping clasped his hands.
After the leading monk left, Chen Ping took a look at this place that symbolized the highest power of Lingxiao Sect.
It looks unremarkable on the outside.
The layout of his Chen Mansion is somewhat similar. In front of the cave mansion is an ancient building with a wooden structure.
Spiritual plants are planted everywhere.
The biggest difference from the Chen Mansion is that the aura here is very strong, and the white mist visible to the naked eye fills the spiritual plant.
"At least the third level, probably the fourth level spiritual land."
"It's great. When I practice in such an environment, I even skip the Qi-tonifying elixirs."
Ming people don't speak secret words, Chen Ping is sour.
While waiting, I saw a foundation-building monk walking out dejectedly.
When passing by the outer courtyard of the reception room, he glanced at Chen Ping and walked straight out.
After waiting for a moment, a voice came out:
"Fellow Taoist, please forgive me. The leader is in retreat during this period, no..."
The sound is crisp and pleasant.
It has a smell familiar to Chen Ping.
"Fellow Daoist Chen? It's you."
At this time, Chen Ping also discovered that the person coming was Ning Xiaoqi. No wonder the voice was so familiar. He stood up and subconsciously said:
"Fellow Daoist Ning, are you okay?"
After a pause, he thought about whether the head of the Ning family had suffered a disaster a few months ago, so it would be inappropriate to mention that he was fine, so he said:
"I came here today because I wanted to meet the head of Jindan. I take the liberty of disturbing you."
Ning Xiaoqi smiled softly and didn't pay attention to Chen Ping's previous question. He first ordered a disciple to pour the spirit tea, and then said:
"You're welcome, Fellow Daoist Chen. The Ning family has been taking care of you a lot during these years in Yunzhong City, Master Chen.
Zu also mentioned Chen Daoyou's great righteousness many times. Why bother? It's not too late to thank you. "
Chen Ping was somewhat ashamed.
In recent years, he has not had much contact with Ning Mansion, let alone taking care of him or not.
At most, he just brought along some of the young disciples from the Ning Mansion when he was performing his mission.
More often than not, it was the head of the Ning Mansion who visited him during holidays.
This does not mean that Chen Ping does not miss his old feelings.
It's that he doesn't like to socialize.
Not only the Ning Mansion, but also the Yun Mansion, he actually had very few daily contacts. It's more about the intersection of tasks, or when you have questions, you go to Yun Haitang and Yun Wenting.
He is used to living alone.
After a brief exchange, Chen Ping said:
"The main reason I came here this time is to ask the master for a ray of golden elixir fire to help me build a virtual bridge."
Ning Xiaoqi hesitated slightly.
It turns out that Chen Ping has already broken through to the middle stage of foundation building.
She secretly looked at Chen Ping and silently made up her mind to practice harder in order to catch up with Chen Ping's progress in the future.
After coming back to her senses, she withdrew her gaze:
"Fellow Daoist Chen, wait a moment. I'll go find the leader. It shouldn't be a problem."
The hand of the female Qi practitioner who was pouring tea couldn't help but tremble... Why did Senior Sister Ning say it was no problem? All those who wanted to see the leader these days were dismissed, without exception. I just sent away a senior who was eager to see me.
The female disciple glanced at her mouth and stood aside quietly waiting.
