I will survive with proficiency

Quiet room.

"That day when Shizun and Chi Liang were dueling, Shizun was heroic and graceful, and he was not afraid of Chi Liang's spirit attack at all. What is the name of that defensive spell?" Chen Ping asked humbly.

The great battle is imminent, and defensive spells, talismans, and means of escape are available.

Soul defense is currently a short board.

It's not a problem to rely on magic weapon defense all the time for soul attack, you have to learn some spells.

So far, the only time he has fought against Jindan is the old man who was protecting Brother Qin outside the Qingyun Territory.

At that time when he used the Hu Jue Luo Sword Technique, the old man broke his Hu Jue Luo Sword Skill by drawing a circle with one hand.

Chen Ping still had a fresh memory of this.

I have long been envious of this kind of spell.

"What? You want to learn?" Xiyue raised her eyes slightly, and she was used to Chen Ping's habitual flattery before begging for help.

Chen Ping did not beat around the bush:

"The battle is imminent, and we are going to the monster beast's lair again. I am afraid that there are quite a few late-tier three monsters there. I have read the relevant books before, and some monster beasts are very good at soul attacks. I think it would be best to be able to practice a spell."

Xiyue hummed:

"It never hurts to learn."

"However, two years is too short. It is not difficult to learn a spell. When it comes to fighting, it is best to avoid those monsters."

With a slight movement of her mind, a jade slip appeared out of thin air in her hand, and she handed it to Chen Ping:

"The soul defense technique that I used against Chi Liang is the Yuanying spell, you can't practice it. But this one is fine. I got this spell at an auction by chance. I have seen it, and it's not bad. Yes. It was originally intended to be practiced by an apprentice, but after returning to the sect, she has already practiced another spell."

"Just for you."

"Thank you, Master." Chen Ping said happily.

Xiyue nodded and stopped practicing.

The high-intensity practice these days is a bit boring, and now Chen Ping is here just to chat with Chen Ping.

But just as she turned around, when she turned around, she realized that Chen Ping had already left.

Can't help scolding Chen Ping in my heart.

...This guy is so snobbish, take the spell and leave.

...

Chen Ping returned to the quiet room, immediately poured his spiritual consciousness into the jade slips, and began to read them.

This spell is called "Pluto Burning God Jue".

Its function is somewhat similar to the magic weapon Chen Ping obtained before. When attacked by the spirit, it can form a magic shield to resist magic attacks.

The difference is that the effect strength of the magic weapon is fixed. And the strength of the spell can continue to grow and strengthen.

Continuing to look down, Chen Ping couldn't help being overjoyed again.

This spell is divided into nine levels, suitable for different levels of cultivation to practice.

Among them, the first three layers are the golden core spells.

This means that as long as this spell is not weak, I can continue to practice it, and I don't need to find other suitable soul defense spells when I reach the Nascent Soul.

Chen Ping sat down on the jade bed and began to comprehend according to the content of the Judgment.

It is always difficult to learn a new spell, but Chen Ping never lacks patience.

Three days later, Chen Ping drew a circle with one hand.

A 'skull head' burning with flames formed in front of him. With a movement of consciousness, the skull screamed, roared out with a terrifying breath, and then disappeared.

Good guy.

It's somewhat similar to the Soul Whip. The soul whip means that every time the soul is drawn, there will be one more skull on the whip, and this spell is to summon the skull.

only……

Why do I feel like I'm getting worse.

Proper magic repair, this is it.

[Pluto Burning God Art (1st Floor) (Entry): 1/1000. 】

‘Well, the form is not important, as long as it can play a defensive effect. '

'According to the jade slips, the deeper you practice this spell, the bigger and more powerful the skull will be. '

‘Continue to practice, and strive to complete the first floor as soon as possible. '

'...'

...

Time flies.

On this day, a wilderness valley outside the village.

A huge green sword descended from the sky and pierced straight into the wasteland with a bang. The surrounding area was razed to the ground in an instant. Even if a dozen mute notes were played in advance, it still caused a lot of noise.

On the wasteland, a gray-robed monk stood undisturbed, his sleeves constantly flipping backwards in the turbulent air waves.

This person is Chen Ping.

He took back the Seven Star Dragon Abyss Sword, felt the transparent throbbing in his heart, and clicked out the panel.

[Green Mang Sword: Consummation. 】

It's finally complete!

This spell has been practiced from the foundation building level to the golden core level. After decades of practice, it has finally come to an end.

It's really not easy.

No wonder Ji Yan said that this spell was difficult to understand, and it was a spell that even the dogs of the Lingxiao sect hated. Although it was a precious secret technique, almost no one practiced it.

It was even delegated to Xiuxian City.

Right.

If I hadn't been able to see the progress bar and clearly experience the joy brought by advancement, I'm afraid I would have given up long ago.

He has practiced an offensive foundation-building spell for decades.

Who can stand this?

but.

This kind of bitterness and sweetness is really good.

At this moment, Chen Ping only felt incomparably satisfied in his heart. This spell was extremely powerful, and it was his biggest reliance throughout the foundation building period. From the current point of view, it is also of great value in the early stage of Golden Core.

Decades of hard work are worth it.

Chen Ping brought up the Seven Star Longyuan Sword, and looked at the monster totem and the pattern on the sword.

When I first got this sword, when I used the Qingmang Sword, the monster clan's totem logo and the pattern on the sword body were only slightly shining, and that flash of light flashed by.

There are not many shiny lines.

But at this time, when the Qingmang sword was used again, the pattern of the sword's body was already tens of times brighter than before, and the duration of the aura was also longer.

This sword is quite special, the lines are not illuminated by spiritual power.

But rely on sword intent.

This means that his sword intent has reached a surging level.

Chen Ping couldn't help but smile to himself.

He closed his eyes slightly, with a sword in his heart, and countless sword intents flying around him, cutting a piece of reed into several sections.

The sword body of the Seven Star Longyuan Sword suddenly flashed as if it had been sensed, and made a buzzing sound.

'This sword intent, if he hammers the road to the north again, I don't know if he will damage his heart. '

Chen Ping smiled again and opened his eyes.

But he was startled suddenly, and his whole body tensed up for a moment.

what happened?

How is this not a wasteland?

He saw himself standing in front of a deep tunnel, and the tunnel was pitch black. His spiritual sense sensed that the tunnel was bottomless, and he didn't know where the end was.

But it is full of sword intent that blocks the sky and the sun.

The overwhelming sword intent.

But with such a shock, the sword intent in his mind was withdrawn, and he woke up in an instant.

The flattened pit, the messy reeds, the endless wasteland...

Chen Ping let out a breath.

It turned out that he was still in place.

‘What is that tunnel full of sword intent? ’...Chen Ping looked at the Seven Star Dragon Abyss Sword in his hand.

Could it be the avenue of sword intent from this sword?

The universe in the sword?

With this in mind, Chen Ping tried again according to the procedure just now, and sure enough, he entered the Sword Intent Avenue again.

Of course, what entered the sword body was not the physical body, but a ray of spiritual consciousness.

He found that the withdrawal just now was not because of his panic, but because the universe in this sword was naturally repulsive to others.

Chen Ping tried several times before he was able to gain a firm foothold in front of the dark tunnel.

Even so, he still felt an extremely strong sense of oppression, an oppression that made him want to surrender.

He raised his foot forward, wanting to take a step forward.

No, half a step.

But even with such a move, at the moment he raised his foot, he was 'thrown' out without accident.

'What a surging sword intent. '

'It's very oppressive. '

Chen Ping recalled how he had ridiculed Lu Xiangbei in his heart just now, but now, in front of the Seven Star Longyuan Sword, he seemed to be Lu Xiangbei.

That sword intent seemed to be mocking—just by you?

Chen Ping looked at the Seven Star Longyuan Sword, and didn't dare to try any more, as it would be troublesome if something went wrong.

Go back and ask Xiyue.

Find out what this situation is all about.

'Originally I thought that among the property given by the Helian family, the golden core was the most valuable thing, but I never thought that the value of this sword might not be weaker than the golden core. '

'Good stuff. '

The Helian family hadn't produced a sword cultivator for hundreds of years, so they deserved not being able to grasp such a good sword.

Chen Ping put away his sword and turned back to the village.

This place was a place he had been looking for for a long time to find someone who practiced destructive spells. There were no monsters for hundreds of miles, and the safety was relatively high.

But even so, to be on the safe side, Chen Ping would not stay here for a long time after making a big commotion every time he practiced Qingmang Sword.

It would be troublesome if a monster came upon hearing the news.

When I went back, I didn't escape, but sneaked all the way back to the village.

After entering the village, he swaggered even more.

In the past two years, everyone has been desperately earning resources and life-saving supplies during the battle. If he doesn't go out once, he will inevitably be targeted by someone with a heart like Xuan Laoxiu.

It makes more sense to go out once in a while.

While walking in the village, I saw a monk carrying another seriously injured monk rushing back to the village, followed by several monks.

Chen Ping quickly flashed to let him fly by first.

"Yang Daoyou, what's the matter?"

Chen Ping was not the only one to see, many monks came out of the cave one after another, stopped to watch, and some even couldn't help asking loudly.

The group of people hurried forward without answering.

"The one who was injured is the leader of the guardians of the ancient pagoda, Senior Zhu."

"It looks like the injury is not light."

"Hey, what's going on? Isn't Fellow Daoist Zhu a late-stage Golden Core cultivation? Are you all injured?"

"..."

There was a lot of discussion.

Chen Ping watched the group enter the formation, and sighed inwardly.

At this time, there were only three months before the war, and at this juncture, the leader was injured.

This is not a good thing.

Don't know what happened.

Chen Ping did not go back directly to the Dongfu, but went to the General Affairs Hall first.

Only three months before the war, the guardians of the ancient pagoda have drawn up a route map to the mysterious ruins, and every Jindan monk or Foundation Establishment monk can go to the General Affairs Hall to get a free copy.

After getting the road map, Chen Ping returned to his cave.

Back in the quiet room, I looked at the road map.

This village is about two million miles away from the mysterious ruins, and the route planned by the guardian of the ancient tower is said to be the best route found in decades.

The route with the fewest monsters.

As long as you fly fast along this route, the number of monsters you encounter can be kept to a minimum.

‘The distance of two million miles, according to the speed of Jindan, will take a lot of time to reach. '

Chen Ping closed the album.

‘There are still three months before the war begins, and we have to make final preparations. '

In the past two years, Chen Ping was practicing when others were going out; when others were looking for resources, Chen Ping was sitting on the spiritual mine to practice; when others were thinking about some life-saving means, Chen Ping was sitting on the spiritual mine A dedicated practice.

In the three and a half years since he formed the alchemy, his martial arts Wuqi Chaoyuan Tianzhang has reached the 'Entry: 86/100'.

The realm has reached 'entry: 38/100'.

Chen Ping is already very satisfied with this progress. Before there was a large number of spiritual mines, his realm only increased by 13 points in one year and eight months.

After having an unlimited supply of spiritual mines, it also took more than eight months a year, and the realm increased by 25 points.

The speed has almost doubled.

That's pretty good.

Although the state is still a "first floor", this "first floor" is not the same as the "first floor" when he first entered Jindan.

Now he is very familiar with the adaptability of the golden core body, the understanding and application of the golden core's ability, and so on. Going to the battlefield now, the self-rescue ability will be far greater than three and a half years ago.

It's not just skills and realm.

Now the Qingmang sword has been practiced to perfection, and the soul protection spell "Pluto Splitting Soul Art" has also been practiced to the "first level (entry): 981/1000".

It will be 'proficient' soon.

In addition, the past few years have not stopped drawing characters. There are often people hunting animals here, so there is no shortage of animal skins, so I can make rune skins myself.

Now there are thousands of golden armor talismans and evil-killing talismans in stock, and some were even given to Xiyue. There are also hundreds of niche talismans such as flashing talismans.

'There are still three months left, just practice Pluto's soul splitting technique step by step. '

'By the way, let's find out about the Seven Star Dragon Abyss Sword. '

Thinking of this, Chen Ping went to find Xiyue.

...

Concealedly raised his doubts.

"You're talking about the ancient treasure of Mieling, right?" Xiyue asked back when she heard Chen Ping's doubts and inquiries.

"What is the Ancient Treasure of Mieling?" Chen Ping had never heard of this term and was very puzzled.

"Do you know what a magic weapon is?" Xiyue didn't answer directly, but asked rhetorically.

"Know a little bit, and ask Master to explain in detail."

The magic weapon is a more advanced type of weapon than the magic weapon.

The so-called magic weapon is driven by spiritual power, forged by monks under certain conditions and engraved with various laws and restrictions on it. Under the condition of not being damaged, it can be used as a continuous spiritual power storage/transmitter.

As for the magic weapon, it was also a magic weapon in essence at the beginning, but it was forged from more advanced materials. Its qualitative change lies in the fact that after a long period of accumulation of true energy in the dantian, it has powerful mana.

When the magic weapon has been cultivated by the monk's dantian true essence and has enough spirituality, there is a very small probability that it can be cultivated to produce a weapon spirit.

The process of accumulating a weapon spirit is extremely difficult.

Also extremely rare.

But once it succeeds, the power of the magic weapon with weapon spirit will far exceed that of ordinary magic weapon.

But there is also a risk, if the spirit of the weapon is destroyed, the spirituality of this magic weapon will be completely lost, and it will become the most common magic weapon, and its power can only be compared with similar magic weapons.

This is the disadvantage of this type of magic weapon.

There is one category that is rather special.

In ancient times, there were some special magic weapon forging methods, or forging methods that have been lost.

Magic weapons forged by such means are usually called ancient treasures.

There is a type of ancient treasure, after the artifact spirit is destroyed, the ancient treasure just loses its spirituality, it will not be destroyed, nor will it be greatly degraded, and even seal the Dao rhyme or spiritual understanding possessed by the artifact spirit in the Among the ancient treasures.

This type of ancient treasure whose spirit has been destroyed is called——

——'Ancient Treasure of Mieling'.
