After returning from the shop, Chen Ping dried the animal skins in a vacant quiet room in the cave.
Some of these animal skins have already been dried, while others were recently exchanged and need further drying.
After taking care of it, he returned to his quiet room, spread a layer of raw spiritual stone ore, and began to practice the Five Qi Dynasty Yuan Tianzhang.
The current state is already '99/100' progress bar.
Breakthrough into the second level, just recently.
After eight years of entering the Golden Elixir, the Golden Elixir in the Dantian has become more rounded than before. The true essence wrapped around the golden elixir is also more mellow.
Around the golden elixir three-dimensional space, five small flames were lit like candles, burning slowly.
At this moment, under the operation of the technique, the five beams of flames are connected into a whole by the lines of true energy.
The five elements interact and form a seamless whole.
Between the five flames and the golden elixir is a 'ball'-shaped air layer composed of true essence, wrapping the golden elixir like an elixir furnace.
The golden elixir fuels the elixir fire, and the elixir fire refines the golden elixir.
Repeatedly.
Forming the trend of the five qi heading towards the Yuan.
After the spiritual energy that Chen Ping inhaled was purified, it gathered in the Dantian through the golden virtual bridge, and turned into pure and white true energy, which was continuously supplied to the Golden Pill, the Pill Cauldron and the Pill Fire.
Chen Ping’s Vipassana of Consciousness.
While running the technique, the soul is used as an auxiliary tool to continuously accelerate the interaction of the five beams of elixir fire and help it refine the golden elixir.
From this perspective, the monk's entire body and soul itself are tangible and invisible alchemy furnaces, which together refine the inner elixir in the Dantian.
The inner appearance of Dantian is just a microcosm.
Slowly, Chen Ping felt that his thoughts were becoming more and more clear, as if he was detached from the world.
In the dantian, the 'alchemy furnace' between the alchemy fire and the golden elixir began to shake violently.
Even the suspended golden elixir also vibrated.
The five bunches of pill fire surrounding the pill furnace began to dim and brighten. The flames were trying to grow upward, but they seemed to be bound by some kind of restraint, making it difficult to break free or grow bigger.
Chen Ping knew that he had reached the critical moment of breakthrough. He once again increased his efforts and concentrated on his exercise. The raw spirit stone ore on the jade bed quickly became dim, and countless spiritual energy quickly gathered towards him, flowing out traces of pure white light.
A large amount of true energy gathers in Dantian.
It turned out that the Jin Dan was shaking more and more violently.
Sudden.
With the golden elixir as the center, a burst of breath suddenly covered it and became turbulent. The elixir fire around the elixir furnace was swept away by the strong wind and almost went out.
After the strong wind passed, the flames suddenly jumped up.
The small flames grew instantly and turned into a raging fire, forming a sea of fire along the lines between the five flames.
in the panel.
[Realm: Golden elixir (second level): 1/100. 】
[Shouyuan: 91/494. 】
Chen Ping couldn't help but feel happy.
After eight years of Jindan, he finally reached the second level of Jindan.
On the journey of cultivating immortality, there is a cave in the sky.
Regardless of the fact that it is only one level, above the Golden Core, each level is as difficult as climbing to the sky. A small level can sometimes block a monk for countless years.
What's more, it's in Canglan Grassland where resources are scarce.
No wonder Chen Ping wasn't happy.
'Life span increased by 16 years. '
'not bad. The increase in lifespan is always more than the time it takes to break through to a small realm. In this way, the accumulated life span will be used for consumption when breaking through to a big realm, so that you will not break through in a hurry and end up dead. '
'With the protection of the second level of the golden elixir, the confinement technique may be practiced faster and leave Canglan Grassland earlier. '
Chen Ping once again placed his consciousness in his Dantian.
After stopping the exercise at this moment, the link between the five bundles of Dan Fire disappeared, the sea of fire disappeared, and the five integrated bundles of Dan Fire turned into isolated Dan Fire.
But the flames were much bigger than before.
Burn quietly.
Chen Ping knew that the reason why he was able to break through to the second level of Jindan in just eight years was not only due to the inexhaustible source of spiritual stones here.
No matter how much raw spiritual stone ore there is, it can only replenish the spiritual energy. When the spiritual energy reaches a certain level, continuing to increase the spiritual energy will not make practice easier.
One of the important factors why it is so fast is the fire of the five elements.
If there was no liquid of the Five Elements when the elixir was formed and a hard elixir was chosen, then the five elements in the body would be out of balance and the yin and yang would be out of balance.
The speed of practice will slow down. When breaking through the small realm, it is difficult for the elixir fire to grow and the 'sea of fire' to form.
These will undoubtedly increase the difficulty of practice.
Even if there are some methods in the Golden elixir realm that can compensate for the Five Elements elements, they are far less effective than refining the Five Elements liquid during elixir formation.
From this perspective, agreeing to Xiyue's adventure into the wild forest was not all bad.
Otherwise, given his original situation, he would most likely choose Hard Formation Pill.
Chen Ping continued to sense the all-round changes brought about by the second level of the golden elixir.
The range of spiritual consciousness increased by another hundred miles, reaching more than 800 miles away.
Each other parameter also has positive feedback.
After experiencing the effects brought by the second level of the golden elixir, Chen Ping continued to open the panel and glanced at his spell interface.
[Spell: Earth Escape Technique: Perfection. Wood Release Technique (Grandmaster): 632/1000. Water Escape Technique (Grandmaster): 861/1000. All things come in spring (Grandmaster): 613/1000. Others (omitted). 】
[Secret Technique: Pluto Soul Splitting Technique (First Level) (Expert): 679/1000. Taiqing Imprisonment Curse (First Level) (Grandmaster): 988/1000. Others (omitted). 】
Because he has not spent time learning skills such as drawing talismans and formations in the past few years, all his energy has been focused on the above-mentioned spells and exercises, so the progress is pretty good.
In particular, the Taiqing Imprisonment Curse has almost reached the level of 'Grand Master'.
Runes I have learned 87 runes.
Progress is going pretty fast.
However, the progress became slower and slower as he got closer to the 'Grand Master'.
Chen Ping had the same feeling as when he had mastered the 'Qingmang Sword' to 'Grand Master'.
This means that his realm has become the biggest bottleneck hindering the practice of secret arts.
Now that I have been promoted to the second level of Jindan, I may be able to make up for it a little bit, but after all, I am still in the early or middle stage of Jindan.
Combining his previous experience in practicing the Qingmang Sword, Chen Ping vaguely felt that he could only practice the 'first level' of the Confinement Technique simply by relying on his early and middle stages of Golden Pill cultivation.
The second floor is probably inaccessible.
Even in the later stage of Jindan, it is not necessarily possible to practice the second level.
Fortunately, you are about to reach the 'Grand Master'. Once you enter the last level, it means that you have practiced this spell to the highest level, and you can slowly discover the shortcomings of this confinement technique in the process of practice. Department, participate in improving the confinement technique.
Understand something beyond the confinement technique.
This process may allow Chen Ping to understand the key elements of unlocking the confinement technique.
'Soon. '
'Next, focus on practicing this confinement technique, set a small goal, and strive to get out of Canglan Grassland within two or three years. '
Chen Ping stood up and walked around with his hands behind his back.
such a pity.
My wife is not around, and there is no one to share such a big breakthrough.
correct.
And Master.
Chen Ping chuckled, decisively walked out of the quiet room, went over and knocked on Master's door.
"Master, are you here?"
"come in."
"Okay." Chen Ping pushed open the door and entered.
Xiyue was working on the confinement technique at her desk. When she heard Chen Ping come in, she didn't look up and just asked lightly:
"Is something wrong?"
"Nothing's wrong." Chen Ping walked into the quiet room filled with a light fragrance with his hands behind his hands.
When walking in from the door, you can just see Xiyue sitting in front of the desk, with graceful curves, beautiful side face, and delicious beauty.
Chen Ping walked to her side and asked calmly:
"Master, after eight years in Canglan Grassland, how has your cultivation progressed?"
"What progress can be made?" Xiyue said without raising her head.
"There is a lack of resources here. It is enough to ensure that the spiritual energy is sufficient and does not affect the foundation. Don't say that my Nascent Soul cultivation level is not suitable for promotion. Even if there is no cultivation level to suppress it, it is difficult to be promoted. Even if you want to advance to the first level, even if you have a golden elixir cultivation level, It’s not easy either.”
"Why do you ask this suddenly?"
"Oh, it's okay. My disciple just came to tell Master that I have reached the second level of Golden Core." Chen Ping said calmly.
Hear the words.
Xiyue's hand paused while she was flipping through the runes, and she looked up at Chen Ping, who was standing next to her, with surprise on her face.
Seeing Xiyue's expression, Chen Ping felt that since he was here to share his joy with his master, and now that his master was already happy, that was fine.
"It's nothing, I'll leave." Chen Ping slowly walked out of Xiyue's quiet room with his hands behind his back and closed the stone door.
Um,
As long as the Master is happy.
Behind her, Xiyue looked at Chen Ping's figure and didn't look back until it disappeared.
I felt that Chen Ping's aura and soul had made a big step forward.
It is indeed the second level of Jindan.
Canglan Grassland lacks resources, and it is indeed very difficult to achieve a small breakthrough here. This village has lasted for hundreds of years, and not many people can advance in cultivation.
But it's normal to think about it. There aren't many monks in this village who can practice as hard as Chen Ping.
In terms of hard work, Chen Ping is unique.
Over the past eight years, I have only been able to leave the village a handful of times. On weekdays, at most I would go to Feng Li's place next door to drink tea, and most of the other time I would spend most of my time practicing hard in the quiet room.
This kind of character is not simple.
Moreover, Xiyue had seen Chen Ping before the formation of the pill, so she was the most solidly prepared for the formation of the pill. When the elixir is formed, there is complete liquid of the five elements.
The base itself is good.
She laughed dumbly, feeling happy for Chen Ping.
This cheap disciple who was acquired in exchange for benefits now seems to be more prominent than the registered disciples at the Ninth Peak.
It's also more fun.
Be clear about grudges and grudges, and know how to repay kindness with kindness.
…This apprentice did not suffer any loss.
After he returns, he can recommend it to the head of Tianyan Sect and give Chen Ping an official identity card. It's a pity to stay in Lingxiao Sect.
No, it’s best to stay at the Ninth Peak.
The corners of her mouth raised slightly.
But something suddenly occurred to him, and his smile suddenly froze.
wrong.
Why does this guy ask about my cultivation before sharing his joy with me?
How is this sharing joy?
He obviously came here to show off to me.
She slapped her palm on the desk, her proud chest rising and falling.
Shivering and cold.
Why did I show a surprised expression just now? Isn't it enough to show that you are calm and calm?
Damn it, he got it.
The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. She glanced at the manuscript of the forbidden technique on the table, and secretly made up her mind to seize the time to study the forbidden technique...Wait, when the forbidden technique is mastered, I will let you know what 'sharing joy' means. .
The other side.
After Chen Ping shared the joy with Master, he felt refreshed. Return to the quiet room and start practicing the Taiqing Confinement Technique.
Unlike other secret arts, the confinement technique uses runes to form spells. The secret technique after practice will not form offensive and defensive power, nor will it produce positive feedback on the practitioner's cultivation.
In a sense, it's more like a skill.
At this moment, Chen Ping used the Seven-Star Longyuan Sword as a tool, used the heaven and earth as talismans, poured in spiritual power, and moved the sword lightly in the quiet room.
The rune borrows the spirit of the snake and the dragon and swallows the energy of Sanjiu, turning it into a spell of imprisonment.
As the tip of the sword moved, complex symbols were formed in the air, then disappeared, and the next one was formed again...
This is the difference between confinement techniques and talismans. Imprisonment techniques are not limited to any medium or form.
Practice continues.
…
A few days later, Chen Ping went outside the village to 'obtain resources' as per his annual practice.
Not long after leaving the village, I found a relatively remote reed field. Naturally, I didn't look for resources, but took this opportunity to practice wood escape.
Wood Escape and Earth Escape have similar principles and limitations. The escape technique has a time limit and a speed limit...and all of this is related to the degree of integration between the monk and the wood element.
Of course, there is no depth to the wood escape technique.
Chen Ping has now mastered the wood escape technique to the level of 'Grandmaster: 632/1000'.
At this moment, Chen Ping touched a reed. After a spell, he disappeared instantly and merged with the reed.
The thoughts move slightly and flow quickly along the reeds. As long as there is contact between the two reeds, they can flow smoothly to the other reed along the touching point.
'Not to mention, this spell can be used to escape quickly in some dense forests. It may be faster than flying to avoid obstacles in the jungle. '
'not bad. '
Chen Ping practiced Wood Escape for a while, then found a stream and practiced Water Escape for a while.
The principle is similar.
And due to the special reason of water quality, it is easier to learn than Earth Escape.
After staying for a few hours, I felt that time was almost up, so I headed back on the same familiar road.
"Fellow Daoist Chen, did you just come back from looking for resources?" When he was about to return to the cave, Feng Li in front of the cave saw Chen Ping's tired appearance and said hello.
Chen Ping said helplessly:
"Yeah, the spiritual energy here is too low, it won't work if I don't look for it."
In fact, there were many such greetings on the way back to the village.
Chen Ping's answer was exactly the same.
"That's true." Feng Li agreed. At the same time, he noticed the change in Chen Ping's breath. He was slightly stunned and congratulated:
"It seems that Fellow Daoist Chen has not only gained resources but also opportunities by going out these years. He has also made progress in his cultivation, which is gratifying."
On the other side of the yard, Feng Li's Taoist monk who was marinating monster meat heard this. He slightly raised his head and glanced at Chen Ping, but said nothing and continued to do his work.
Chen Ping's breath gathering technique is still at the foundation level, although it can still be used. But in terms of hiding one's cultivation level, it is no longer enough when one has close contact with the golden elixir and is being carefully looked at.
Such as this moment.
Chen Ping said quickly:
"Fellow Daoist Feng, you're too polite. It's just a small realm in the early stage of Jindan. It's not worth mentioning. There's no chance. It's just that we gained some insights when we attacked the mysterious ruins together."
"That's also a chance." Feng Li said with a smile:
"So many monks have gone to the mysterious ruins, but few of them have gained any great insights."
"..."
Chen Ping chatted for a while, then ended the conversation and returned to his cave on the grounds that his sister was still waiting for him in the quiet room.
