My magic weapons are all rule-based

Three ice picks, two fireballs, and a cluster of vines.

As soon as they appeared, they were chopped to pieces by Huang Zhiwen with his sword.

Ice shards, broken wood, and flames exploded in the air.

Once it disappeared, Xu Shan released again continuously, almost without pause.

Under Huang Zhiwen's continuous harassment, the speed of his sword moves had slowed down a lot, and Xu Shan could handle it with ease.

After drinking some tea, Huang Zhiwen put away his sword and retreated, standing two meters in front of Xu Shan.

His face darkened slightly.

Xu Shan asked curiously: "Why don't you fight?"

"Do you know these things? Fireball, Earth Vine, and Ice Cone. Although these three spells are basic, if you use them at this frequency, your spiritual power will have been exhausted long ago."

"Don't rely too much on the spiritual crystal soul. You can't rely on that thing for a long time. Sooner or later it will run out. It's extremely difficult to find a replacement on the market."

Xu Shan nodded.

He only consumed one-fifth of his spiritual power...far from exhausting it. The Wugou Xuan Shu's spiritual power gain has always been huge.

Huang Zhiwen didn't know the inside story, and misunderstandings were normal.

"What does the sect master think of my current strength?"

Huang Zhiwen pursed his lips and thought: "You are pretty good and have improved very quickly. You are also very proficient in using several spells, which shows that you have worked hard."

"I am already at the Nascent Soul Stage, and with my swordsmanship...at your current level, I think you can compete with the weaker late-stage Dandan Formation, but it will be a bit troublesome to win."

"Your basic swordsmanship is very good, and it seems that you are not slacking off. But those three spells plus one footwork... are too basic. Let me put it bluntly, your current strength will not be able to achieve any ranking in the gathering of heroes. "

"And...I only used 70% of my strength to attack you just now."

Xu Shan raised his eyebrows, noncommittal, and felt quite happy.

He only used less than 30% of his strength to block...he didn't use all three spells at full strength.

The Poké Ball baby and a lot of dirty work tactics are not easy to embarrass in front of Huang Zhiwen.

The most important thing is that the big spiritual root is still thrown away at home, and now the waste spiritual root is used... the operation of spiritual power is much slower.

Judging from Huang Zhiwen's statement, the strength he is showing now can rival those in the later stage of Dan Jie.

It feels like it's not impossible to win Dzogchen... It seems that the benefits Zihe brought him were really not small.

"Why are you still confused? Your spells are too basic and your tactics are too monotonous. You will easily die if you meet the geniuses in the Heroes Club." Huang Zhiwen pointed out, "I told you, no monk dares to join the Heroes Club. It is comparable to ordinary monks.”

"However, it's not that you don't have strengths. Your body is indeed unusually strong, and your speed is obviously faster than that of ordinary people in the late stage of pill formation. If you want to fight across borders, you must use your advantage to perform sword skills at close range."

"But that's not enough...can you be promoted to the late stage of pill formation within eight months?"

Xu Shan thought: "Yes, I have already sensed that we are approaching the bottleneck. In eight months... we should be able to do it."

"Hmm..." Huang Zhiwen touched his chin and said, "I knew I should have learned some spells for you, but now I have learned a lot of them."

"Eight months is not enough time for you to perfectly master a Xuan-level spell. If you don't use it well, it's better not to use it. Start retreating from now on, strive to break through to the later stage, and prepare some elixirs and talismans for you. Only then will you have Hope to get a dozen.”

Xu Shan quickly thanked him, and then said solemnly: "I wonder how I compare now with the sect leader when he was in the middle stage of pill formation?"

Huang Zhiwen said with a straight face: "You can't compare with me. I dared to achieve Dzogchen in the middle stage of my pill formation. Of course I don't dare to do such a thing now."

"But don't be discouraged. It's already a miracle that you can improve to this level in less than twenty years. You will surpass me sooner or later."

"Thank you for the compliment, sect master." Xu Shan grinned, "Then we won't fight. From now on, I will go back to Lijiacun to practice in seclusion. I will go now without further ado. Before the meeting of heroes begins, the sect master will just send two disciples to inform me. ”

Huang Zhiwen nodded, Xu Shan turned and left.

Looking at Xu Shan's back, Huang Zhiwen hesitated to speak, and finally raised his hand and said: "Xu Shan."

Xu Shan turned around and looked at Huang Zhiwen in confusion.

Huang Zhiwen sighed: "Actually... I think it's better for you not to participate. If you make a mistake, you will die on the stage. The magic learned by those geniuses is not comparable to your yellow-level magic. This matter is risky after all. Too big.”

"If you want to become famous, you might as well find another way."

Xu Shan turned around and left with a smile. Before leaving, he raised his hand and waved it gently: "Sect Master, after all, I am also the dean of Taikoo Pavilion and Lijiacun Vocational Immortal Cultivation Academy. In terms of seniority, everyone present should be considered my junior, and beating them will count." I bullied someone!"

"Don't worry, I'm invincible at the same level!"

Xu Shan had a contemptuous smile on his lips.

Now through Huang Zhiwen's words, he probably has a relatively clear positioning of himself.

I am the Immortal Lord of Zhenhai, the president of Tianxiahui, and the head of Zhenhai Sect.

His subordinates were in charge of a group of golden elixir Yuanyings, but they couldn't get a place in a competition during the elixir formation period.

It’s just ridiculous!

Such a waste, he should stop living and find a place to commit suicide and be reincarnated to work again!

Huang Zhiwen was stunned.

Damn it, this young man!

I really don’t know how high the sky is, how can he even say such a thing?

What on earth has he encountered in southern Xinjiang these years!

That's all... It's a good thing to have this courage. It's better to prepare more life-saving things for him.

The honorary elder of Baodan Sect and the father of Daozi of Baodan Sect must not be defeated in the ring!

......

Returning to Lijia Village, Xu Shan returned to his wooden house.

Before returning, he had closed the doors and windows and told everyone outside not to disturb him.

Finally, he called Zhang Biao.

Alone in the room, Xu Shan took a look and took away all the furniture, and the room was suddenly empty.

Then he waved his hand again, and half of the room was filled with spiritual stones.

Xu Shan stretched out his hand and dug a few times, and got into the pile of spiritual stones.

Then he buried his head, leaving only a hole for his nose to breathe.

After a while, the spiritual stones in the room suddenly glowed...

......

Seven and a half months later.

A knock on the door sounded

Looking at the battle image on the light screen, Xu Shan waved his hand to put away the projection jade slip.

When he opened the door, it was Huang Zhiwen who came in person: "Xu Shan, have you made a breakthrough? The time has come, we should set off."

Xu Shan shook his head: "No breakthrough, still in the middle stage of Jindan."

"This... didn't you say you were sure?"

Xu Shan smiled mysteriously: "Of course I am sure, I have suppressed it to the limit and can break through at any time, but I think it would be a waste to break through like this. I plan to hold the whole event at the Heroes Conference, let's discuss the plan..."

.....
