I Live Forever With My Proficiency

Chapter 97 A near miss

The two immediately went to find the Ning Family Master. After explaining their intention, the Ning Family Master picked up the Wan Lei Bamboo and examined it carefully.

He was amazed for a while.

After a while, he shook his head again and again.

Every time he clicked his tongue in surprise, Brother Cao would smile; every time he shook his head, Brother Cao's heart would beat a little.

Chen Ping is much more calm.

"Senior Ning, how are you?" Seeing the head of the Ning family put down Wan Lei Bamboo, Brother Cao asked impatiently.

The head of the Ning family said ‘hmm’:

"It's definitely Wan Lei Bamboo. It has been struck by lightning about five hundred times, so it's considered a rare spiritual material."

"such a pity."

"I'm afraid it has been dead for hundreds of years, and it has all rotted away. Only the middle sections of the main branches are available, and I'm afraid they will cost a lot. And the second half must have been soaked in water for a long time, right? Wan Lei Bamboo It is a very yang thing, and it will inevitably lose some quality if soaked for a long time.”

"Out of this forest, I estimate that this Ten Thousand Thunder Bamboo can be sold for about 15 Middle Grade Spiritual Stones. But here, the journey is long, and the seller is free from the cost of carrying goods, so the price will naturally be discounted."

"In my opinion, it's about 11 Middle Grade spiritual stones."

Brother Cao was worried all the time, but after hearing the price, he finally felt relieved:

"Haha, Fellow Daoist Chen, look, I'm not asking for random prices."

Chen Ping regretted it to death.

If I had known better, I would not have come for an appraisal, but I ended up spending an extra Middle Grade spirit stone in vain.

But on second thought, I couldn’t think of it this way.

Without the appraisal of the head of the Ning family, how could I tell the truth from the false? What if I lose money on my purchase?

At least now I can buy it with confidence.

He had no intention of letting go of the bamboo. The spell he practiced, "Tiangang Thunder Method", was a Qi Refining Late Stage spell, so he hadn't practiced it for a long time, and he had just entered the 'mastery' level.

With the addition of this bamboo, the power will be much greater.

This kind of bamboo is a rare spiritual plant. It can absorb the spiritual power of the sky thunder, but it does not have high requirements for the richness of the spiritual energy in the environment, which makes its living environment elusive and difficult to find.

Good bamboo is rare.

After going to Xincheng, this kind of Law Weapon made of bamboo may be rare, or it may be equally common, he doesn't know.

But it’s not a loss to buy at this price.

Thinking of this, I immediately reached a deal with Brother Cao and bought it for 11 Middle Grade spiritual stones.

After Brother Cao left, the head of the Ning family asked:

"Has Fellow Daoist Chen mastered thunder spells?"

Chen Ping didn’t hide anything:

"That's true. The spell is not good, so I thought of using Ten Thousand Thunder Bamboo to strengthen it."

This matter cannot be hidden.

The field of use of Wanleizhu is very narrow.

Either used as a carrier of thunder spells, or purely used to ward off evil spirits.

But if it is purely used to ward off evil spirits, its practicality is not as good as using talismans such as evil warding talismans and evil-destroying talismans.

"Fellow Daoist Chen is young and promising." The head of the Ning family smiled.

Thunder spells are difficult to practice.

Chen Ping is willing to spend a lot of money to enhance the power of thunder spells, so the thunder spells must be somewhat successful, otherwise he would not be so generous.

"Senior Ning is ridiculous. Compared with the outstanding disciples of Ning Mansion, my meager skills are nothing." Chen Ping pulled back, not wanting to talk more about himself.

Without waiting for Chen Ping to be more modest, the head of the Ning family asked:

“Then Yu Qingyi’s granddaughter Yu Xiao, Fellow Daoist, is Chen Fellow Daoist’s Taoist companion?”

"It's my wife." Chen Ping smiled.

The head of the Ning family nodded and didn't say much. He just chatted about family matters for a while.

"Senior Ning, I have just told Fellow Daoist Cao not to publicize this transaction. Likewise, I would also like to ask Senior Ning to help keep the secret so as not to cause unnecessary trouble." Chen Ping clasped his hands.

The head of the Ning family was stunned for a moment, and then he agreed generously, silently labeling Chen Pingduo in his heart.

Chen Ping was anxious to mess with his Wan Lei Bamboo and had no intention of chatting. After chatting for a while, he found an excuse to leave.

Returning to his cave, he couldn't wait to take out the hidden Thousand Thunder Bamboo.

Share with Yu Lingchun:

"Let me show you what I bought."

Yu Lingchun looked at it curiously and frowned slightly to see that it seemed a bit like a certain spiritual plant that she knew, but she was not sure.

He shook his head.

"Thousand Thunder Bamboo." Chen Ping said excitedly.

Yu Lingchun suddenly realized it and said that it was somewhat consistent with the Wan Lei Bamboo he knew. She usually studies the Teng Teng spiritual plants in detail and knows many rare spiritual plants.

"It's quite expensive. It cost 11 Middle Grade spiritual stones. And the quality is not very good." Chen Ping regretted.

Seeing Chen Ping's expression of pain, Yu Lingchun pursed her lips and snickered, but comforted her:

"As long as it's useful, it doesn't matter if it's a little more expensive. When I get to Xincheng, I'll learn how to draw talismans from you. You can always earn spiritual stones, so you have to spend them anyway."

And added:

"The quality of this one is not bad. I saw someone selling it in Azure Cloud Sect, but it is not as good as this one. I guess it has been soaked in water for too long. It will be better if it is exposed to the sun more often to absorb the sunshine."

Can you still do this?

It seems that my little daughter-in-law knows a lot.

Chen Ping nodded:

"It's up to you, let's try it later."

After chatting for a while, Yu Lingchun was asked to rest first and recuperate before heading out tomorrow. I continued to explore the bamboo for a while.

He took out a knife and carefully cut off the few intact bamboo sections in the middle according to the description of the carrying utensils in "Tiangang Thunder Method". The final shape was a bamboo limb as long as a talisman pen, and the thickness was about the same. , very easy to store.

He didn't waste the remaining materials, wrapped them up and put them in a storage bag.

Although they are all rotten or irrelevant, they are still very precious and may be sold for money.

11 Middle Grade spiritual stones.

‘I don’t know if it can take root again. ’

Thinking of this, he took out a branch and silently recited the spell 'Spring comes to dead wood'.

Regrettably.

The branches did not sprout new buds.

He repeated it several times unwillingly, but still failed.

‘Maybe the proficiency level is not high enough. Let’s try again after the ‘Dead Tree Blooms’ is completed. ’

Chen Ping originally wanted to try the effect of the 'Tiangang Thunder', but when he saw the getting dark outside, he decided not to run around.

talk about it later.

The next day.

After resting for a night and half a day, most of the monks felt like they were barely alive again.

Chen Ping got up and walked outside. Some people were roasting game, some were meditating and practicing, some were talking softly, and some even jumped into the stream to take a bath, enjoying the last relaxing moment.

This night was a near miss.

Although some people were attacked by some wild animals, no one was injured and everyone was happy.

After having breakfast, most of them set off again with an order from the head of the Ning family.

Advance deeper into the forest.

As the journey progressed, the trees became denser and denser, blocking out the sky and the sun. Many journeys were like day and night, and the road became increasingly difficult to walk.

Demonic Beasts began to appear along the way.

During this period, several Demonic Beasts attacked the team, but they were quickly repulsed, with no real danger.

At noon on the ninth day, the team had to stop again by a stream.

It's still a creek.
