Chapter 117: Breakthrough in Divine Arts, Shocking the Foundation-Building Monks
"Call us back to the sect?"
Chu Ning and Lu Miaoying were both slightly surprised when they heard the news.
Chu Ning keenly discovered that Lin Changqing did not call Gu Xiaoqing and Shen Zhengquan, but only called himself and Lu Miaoying.
So, he immediately asked:
"Deacon, is it just the two of us? Senior Sister Gu and Senior Brother Shen are not needed?"
"They are not needed." Lin Changqing shook his head.
"The sect specifically called you two this time."
Chu Ning frowned slightly, but his heart skipped a beat, and he subconsciously felt that something was going to happen.
The cultivation level he showed now was the fifth level of Qi Refining, while Lu Miaoying was the sixth level of Qi Refining.
Why did the sect call his two disciples with lower cultivation levels, but not call Gu Xiaoqing, who was at the eighth level of Qi Refining, and Shen Zhengquan, who was at the seventh level of Qi Refining?
Thinking of this, Chu Ning also asked directly: "Deacon, did the sect say what it was?"
For a year or two, Chu Ning had a good relationship with Lin Changqing, and he tried to get some information from Lin Changqing.
But what disappointed Chu Ning was that Lin Changqing just shook his head and said:
"No!"
Then, the cold-faced deacon continued:
"The sect sent a message before that they would take you back to the sect soon, and I just happened to go to two other markets to bring people.
How about this, you pack up, I will pick up the others, and come here to pick you up tomorrow morning."
After saying that, Lin Changqing turned around and left directly.
Chu Ning thought that Lin Changqing might tell him something by voice transmission, but it didn't happen.
Lin Changqing left very decisively, leaving Chu Ning with a lot of questions.
Of course, Lu Miaoying on the side did the same.
"Brother Chu, why is the sect so anxious to call us back?"
Lu Miaoying's expression didn't change much at this moment, but she looked very curious.
Chu Ning shook his head and said to Lu Miaoying:
"Senior Sister Lu, let's pack up our things first. The sect is calling us, and it may take a while. I have to go to the spiritual field."
Chu Ning said, and walked out.
Lu Miaoying naturally couldn't stay in Chu Ning's talisman shop at this moment, so she went out.
As soon as he went out, Chu Ning flew directly to the spiritual field.
On the way, he kept thinking about this strange news.
What do he and Lu Miaoying have in common that the sect would call them.
But after thinking about it, Chu Ning didn't think of anything else except that his cultivation was low and he practiced the same wood attribute technique.
So when he came to the spiritual field, Chu Ning simply stopped thinking about it.
Instead, he started picking his second batch of mature golden orchid fruits.
There were 80 plants in this batch, and the number of flowers and fruits on each plant was good, so there were 300 in total.
After picking them, Chu Ning looked at the remaining 100 iron-stem orchids and the golden yuan fruits that were about to mature, and sighed.
These have already grown golden orchid fruits, but it will take a long time for them to mature, so it’s useless to pick them now.
And the golden yuan fruits will take about half a month to mature.
I just hope that I won’t be back to the sect for too long, and I can come back to pick all these spiritual fruits by then.
At this time, Chu Ning didn’t have the mind to perform any Qingmu Chunhua technique, and he left the spiritual field and returned to the market again.
When he arrived in front of his shop, Chu Ning saw that Lu Miaoying was chatting with Gu Xiaoqing and Shen Zhengquan across the door.
Almost without guessing, Chu Ning also knew that Lu Miaoying should have told the two of them the news.
After thinking about it, he simply walked over.
“Brother Chu is here too? I just heard from Sister Lu that you are going back to the sect soon?”
Gu Xiaoqing saw Chu Ning coming over and took the initiative to greet him.
Chu Ning nodded, then took out the prohibition card of the spiritual field from the storage bag and handed it to Gu Xiaoqing.
"Senior sister Gu, the golden yuan fruit in my spiritual field will be ripe in half a month. I don't know if I can make it back in time.
If I can't make it back in time, Senior sister Gu can pick all the spiritual fruits by herself."
Gu Xiaoqing heard Chu Ning's words and took it directly, smiling:
"Okay, I've always wanted to visit Junior Brother Chu's spiritual field. Now I have the chance."
Seeing that the few people seemed to be very interested in talking, Chu Ning didn't want to join in.
After saying that he still had spiritual plants to take care of, he said goodbye to the few people and turned to walk into his shop.
Seeing this, Lu Miaoying also hurriedly said: "I have to go and clean up, I still have a lot of spiritual beasts."
The few people dispersed directly.
Chu Ning returned to his talisman shop and walked around the backyard. After all, he had just been back a few months ago, so there was nothing special to bring.
After thinking about it, Chu Ning directly dug out the iron stem orchid in his backyard and put it in the storage bag.
Anyway, he would return to the sect tomorrow, so he could take these iron stem orchids back and plant them in his own courtyard in the sect.
Then, Chu Ning came to the room and took out the tools for making talismans.
At the same time, he checked the proficiency in his mind.
[Qingmu Changchun Gong (low-grade yellow), third level (961/2100)]
[Jiuyan Refining Body Art, first volume, continuous tendons 638/1500]
[Refining Spirit Art, first level 998/1000]
The recent training has been relatively normal, so whether it is training Qi, training the body or training the spirit, the progress is not slow.
"This divine refining technique is just a little short of the last step. The first level will be cultivated to perfection. Take advantage of the fact that there is still one night and half a day to complete it."
Chu Ning muttered secretly in her heart.
To improve the proficiency of divine refining, naturally the best way is to make a talisman and add the Black Night Iron Soul Wooden Sword.
Chu Ning picked up the talisman pen, adjusted it slightly, and started making talismans.
Different from the talisman on the magic talisman that Chu Ning made before, the one Chu Ning made now was a true magic talisman.
The Aoki Chunhua Technique, which has reached the instantaneous level, can naturally make magic talismans. I thought that since I would let Gu Xiaoqing go to the spiritual field.
Just get some Aoki Chunhua Talisman for the other party, and also help yourself to cast a spell on those Golden Orchid Fruits.
Anyway, the magic talisman I made with the Qingmu Chunhua Technique is very similar to the Eternal Spring Talisman.
If you weren't someone who knew the talisman very well, you wouldn't be able to tell the difference for a while.
One Aoki Chunhua Talisman was made one after another, and each one was a direct success. Chu Ning made a full 200 of them before he felt that his spiritual consciousness had been exhausted to a certain extent.
Thinking that it would take some time for him to practice the magic, Chu Ning simply found Gu Xiaoqing first with 200 Qingmu Chunhua Talismans.
After hearing Chu Ning's intention, Gu Xiaoqing agreed wholeheartedly and said with a smile:
"Golden Orchid Fruit? This is my first time hearing about this kind of spiritual plant.
Junior Brother Chu, don't worry, I don't have so many talismans to use in normal times. I have to use up all your talismans this time. "
After expressing his gratitude, Chu Ning bought some Bigu Pills and Lingyuan Pills from Gu Xiaoqing, and then turned around and returned to his Fu Fang.
Sitting cross-legged on the bed in the room, Chu Ning took out the Black Night Ironwood Sword from the storage bag.
"There is not much wood essence left, I hope it can support me to complete this practice."
Looking at the Heixiao Iron Wood Sword, which was now close to returning to its log shape, Chu Ning muttered to himself.
Immediately, he placed it on his knees.
Start practicing the art of refining the gods.
At this moment, in Niwan Palace, Chu Ning's condensed consciousness fluid was more than ten times larger than before.
As Chu Ning practiced, these divine consciousness liquids once again formed a vortex, bringing the surrounding gas into it.
During this practice, Chu Ning completely forgot about time.
Until a certain moment.
"drop!"
A sound like water drops falling heavily sounded in Chu Ning's mind.
Immediately, Chu Ning suddenly discovered that the divine consciousness liquid suspended in the Niwan Palace was falling violently.
Then it was like a huge water balloon hitting the floor, with water droplets splashing everywhere.
The divine consciousness liquid actually dispersed directly and turned into a hundred drops of even smaller divine consciousness liquid, forming a ball shape and existing in his Niwan Palace.
The next moment, Chu Ning found that his eyes and ears had become extremely clear.
There is a feeling that the whole world is visible.
Release your spiritual consciousness!
This requires a very large range of spiritual consciousness to be released to have a clear feeling.
After realizing this, Chu Ning immediately began to feel the distance.
What surprised Chu Ning slightly was that the distance was actually fifty feet!
He could even clearly feel that there were several gray rabbits sleeping soundly in Lu Miaoying's backyard, which was separated by the Lingzhufang yard.
He could also clearly feel that in the courtyard across the street, Gu Xiaoqing was meditating.
"It turns out that the so-called doubling of spiritual consciousness is doubling the spiritual consciousness that has reached the first level of perfection through one's own cultivation."
Chu Ning was surprised and happy at the moment. She finally had an idea of the so-called doubling of divine refining skills.
"I don't know what the spiritual consciousness of the monks in the foundation-building stage is like? My current spiritual consciousness should be no worse than that of ordinary monks in the foundation-building stage.
By the way, can you refresh it..."
Chu Ning suddenly thought of this question.
He immediately checked the proficiency of his mind.
[Alchemy, first level 1000/1000]
[Refresh the talent magical power: Forbidden God Technique. 】
"Refining God can indeed refresh your innate magical powers!"
Chu Ning was overjoyed when she saw it.
Moreover, what surprised Chu Ning was that what was refreshed by this divine refining technique was not the secret technique Phantom Divine Thorn that came with it.
Rather, it is an innate magical power called Forbidden God Technique.
At this moment, this Forbidden God Technique has turned into Chu Ning's innate magical power. Chu Ning can know its usage and effects directly without introducing it.
After learning about the contents of this Forbidden God Technique, Chu Ning's eyes also brightened.
This Forbidden Divine Technique turns out to be a spiritual defense type magical power, which has two functions depending on the situation.
The simplest thing is to block other monks' spiritual exploration.
The effectiveness of the Forbidden God Technique in shielding the exploration of divine consciousness is related to the strength of one's own divine consciousness.
At present, Chu Ning can block the detection of monks who have twice the spiritual consciousness of his own.
Another function of the Forbidden God Technique is that it can resist divine attacks, and the damage can be doubled through the Forbidden God Technique, allowing the caster to receive twice the damage from divine consciousness attacks.
The prerequisite for achieving this is that the other party's spiritual consciousness is no more than twice as strong as one's own.
Otherwise, it only has the effect of resisting and mitigating damage.
"If the inference is correct, my consciousness has reached the level of the early stage of foundation building.
If you want to have twice my spiritual consciousness, perhaps only a monk in the late stage of foundation building can do it. "
Chu Ning was muttering in her heart at this moment, and the more she thought about it, the happier she felt.
This means that for ordinary cultivators below the middle stage of foundation building, first of all, if Chu Ning wants to block the other party's spiritual sense detection, the other party may not be able to discover him at all.
And if a little careful discovery is made, if he tries to attack with spiritual sense, Chu Ning's forbidden magic will make the other party bear twice the backlash damage.
Even if it is a cultivator in the late stage of foundation building, Chu Ning can greatly reduce the damage even if he cannot backlash with spiritual sense attack.
"What a heaven-defying talent and magical power!"
Chu Ning muttered to himself, and then thought of the phantom divine thorn secret method that comes with this divine refining technique.
"Now that I am not refreshing this phantom divine thorn, doesn't it mean that I can learn this secret method again?"
Chu Ning subconsciously wanted to take out the jade slip, but then gave up.
Let's talk about the practice of this secret technique when there is a chance in the future.
Moreover, Chu Ning is still very cautious about the use of the secret method of the phantom divine thorn.
At this time, his spiritual sense is relatively strong, but only relative to the cultivators in the Qi Refining Stage.
As for the cultivators in the Qi Chaining Stage, he now had many means, and he could not use this spiritual attack for the time being.
Chu Ning felt that he would not easily try this phantom divine thorn unless his spiritual sense was very strong.
Thinking of this, Chu Ning was ready to retract his external spiritual sense.
However, at this moment, Chu Ning suddenly paused, and a trace of surprise appeared on his face.
But at this moment, he suddenly found that in his spiritual sense, a figure actually appeared in the room next door to Lu Miaoying.
Before Chu Ning even had time to react, the black-clothed cultivator silently pointed a finger and a spell hit the latter.
Without even a chance to resist, Lu Miaoying was instantly pierced through by this spell.
All this happened so fast that even if Chu Ning discovered this cultivator, he did not have time to give any hints.
The next moment, this person went straight out of Lu Miaoying's room, and then went straight from that courtyard to the courtyard of his own spiritual plant room, and then went straight to the courtyard of the talisman workshop.
And the restrictions between each courtyard did not hinder this cultivator at all.
"Foundation-building cultivator?"
Chu Ning suddenly thought of a possibility.
There were restrictions in each courtyard of himself and others, although the level of these restrictions was not high.
However, only a cultivator in the foundation-building period could break it so easily.
This thought undoubtedly made Chu Ning feel extremely surprised.
Seeing that the other party was coming directly to his courtyard, and thinking of Lu Miaoying and himself being recruited by the sect together.
Chu Ning understood a lot of things in an instant, and his face became extremely ugly.
Without time to think more, Chu Ning's spiritual sense was immediately retracted.
The aura-collecting effect of the Yinmu spirit body was fully released, and at the same time, the forbidden magic was used without hesitation to block the spiritual sense from investigating.
The next moment, Chu Ning felt the other party's spiritual sense sweeping over.
However, under the shielding effect of the forbidden magic, this person's consciousness did not find Chu Ning's existence.
Although Chu Ning did not release his consciousness, he was very sensitive.
At this moment, he heard the cultivator walking in the yard and muttering.
"How could there be no one? There is clearly a fifth-level Qi training cultivator here."
The man's voice was hoarse and a bit doubtful.
The next moment, he suddenly turned his head and looked in a certain direction.
Chu Ning's face suddenly changed at this moment, and he suddenly realized that something was wrong.
Ling Xiaobai.
This little guy is still in the yard.
"Ying!"
Sure enough, at the same time, Ling Xiaobai seemed to be alarmed.
After making a frightened sound, the little guy subconsciously ran straight to the room where Chu Ning was.
Ling Xiaobai's speed was very fast, and the foundation-building cultivator did not catch it for a while.
However, the foundation-building cultivator quickly caught up.
This made Chu Ning secretly groan.
He quickly took out several intermediate-grade defensive talismans from his storage bag. The next moment, Chu Ning's heart moved.
He had originally put away his spiritual sense, but now he released it directly.
He covered the body of the foundation-building cultivator.
At this time, Chu Ning finally sensed this person through his spiritual sense.
It was a middle-aged man with a mole on his left face.
The middle-aged foundation-building cultivator who was originally chasing Ling Xiaobai stopped immediately after sensing Chu Ning's spiritual sense.
The next moment, his face changed drastically.
"Foundation-building cultivator!"
He just whispered a sentence, and the next moment, the middle-aged foundation-building cultivator quickly turned around and turned into a black light and flew away without looking back.
Until the figure of the middle-aged foundation-building cultivator completely disappeared from his spiritual sense range, and after about an incense stick of time, no one appeared again.
At this moment, Chu Ning felt a little relieved.
This scene just now was nothing short of thrilling.
Chu Ning saw that this cultivator was in the Foundation Establishment Stage but was still sneaking around like this, and guessed that the other party might not want to alarm others.
So, he tried to release his spiritual sense.
Sure enough, the man didn't sense Chu Ning just now, but later he suddenly felt Chu Ning's external spiritual sense, thinking that a Foundation Establishment Stage cultivator had appeared.
So he decisively chose to leave.
"Fortunately, my spiritual refining technique had just broken through, and I blocked the other party's detection at the beginning, and my spiritual sense also grew a lot.
Otherwise, it would be impossible to sense the other party at such a long distance, and it would be even more impossible to scare the other party away with spiritual sense."
Thinking like this, he looked at Ling Xiaobai who was squatting in front of him, and cursed him with his spiritual consciousness:
"Little guy, you almost killed me! Hurry up and get into the spirit beast bag."
Although Ling Xiaobai looked aggrieved, he seemed to know the thrill just now and Chu Ning's anger at the moment. Without saying a word, he went directly into the spirit beast bag.
Chu Ning's expression was still hesitant at this moment.
He and Lu Miaoying were just two disciples in the middle stage of Qi Refining, but there was actually a foundation-building cultivator coming to kill them.
Chu Ning knew without thinking that this must be related to the sect's call today.
Thinking of some of the information he had obtained before, the identity of this person was about to be revealed.
Yinmo Sect!
And the sect's call this time must be related to the forbidden area where the secret mission was located.
As for choosing Lu Miaoying and himself, it is very likely that the disciples this time are going to practice wood-attributed skills.
Even the standard was lowered to the fifth level of Qi Refining.
Chu Ning quickly guessed the whole thing, and his expression was as ugly as it could be.
