Chapter 11 Cangshan
On Qingye Peak, sycamore leaves fell all over the mountains and fields.
Elder Huang stroked his beard and said: "Yes, I have indeed made a breakthrough. Now I have reached the second level of Qi refining. There is progress."
Shi Ning did not expect that he would break through like this, "Then what happened to the seed in my Dantian?" "What happened?"
Elder Huang thought for a moment and said: "Those who practice immortality will see the Dharma body transformed from the original body in the Dantian. Different people practice different techniques, and the Dharma body transformed into sword cultivation may also be different. A sword may sound like a harp or a flute.
"As for you, it may be because of the wood spirit root that it transformed into a seed."
"But generally only monks in the Nascent Soul stage can do it. The Dharmakaya cultivated in the Dantian, why you can see the Dharmakaya so early, I think about it, it may be because of the effect of the marrow repair pill."
"In short, you should concentrate on cultivating first, and this seed may transform into other shapes. " Shi Ning was a little surprised, "Does this
mean the seed will grow?" "It
's all possible."
Elder Huang placed a small yellow flower that was just a flower bone in front of Shi Ning, "Can you try injecting spiritual power into it?"
Shi Ning concentrated and felt a light spiritual energy flowing through his limbs, and his whole body felt like Been purified once. She tried to gather all her spiritual power on her fingertips, and her fingers as thin as white onions tapped a small yellow flower in the air.
The yellow flower fully blooms petal by petal from the inside out, and the stamens wrapped inside are clearly visible. It even attracted a few butterflies to come and collect nectar.
Elder Huang nodded happily, "Not bad."
Shi Ning also opened his lips slightly in surprise, and suddenly he could understand why so many people were obsessed with cultivating immortals. Not to mention turning stones into gold, the ability to make flowers bloom with just a little bit is also fascinating.
However, I was not happy for long. After the yellow flowers bloomed, they began to wither and wither one by one.
"What's going on?" Shi Ning looked up at Elder Huang.
"If there is too much spiritual power, the flower will go through the entire process of blooming, bearing fruit and withering in an instant. You are very perceptive, but you are not yet able to control the spiritual power very well, but you can control it well with a little practice a few times. It’s spiritual.” Elder Huang explained.
"This time you are going to Cangshan Mountain, where there are many spiritual plants. You can learn to control spiritual power during this experience."
The mountains in the distance are continuous and steep. All the disciples who went to Cangshan this time are here. Fortunately, they were all acquaintances, Yan Huanming, Gu Chong, and the senior sister Su Jinjin who had previously threatened to disfigure Shi Ning in the Valley of Beasts.
Chengtian Gate occupies thousands of miles and the landscape is endless. Cangshan Mountain is at the border of Chengtianmen. The earth is connected to the human world. Occasionally, villagers will go up the mountain to collect herbs. It is a gray area. From time to time, some monsters or wandering cultivators will come from everywhere, but they generally will not hurt people easily.
However, the Black Feathered Crane clan who revolted this time had a bad temper and killed many villagers. We can no longer allow them to act recklessly.
Shi Ning originally thought that they would walk to Cangshan Mountain. Fortunately, Yan Huanming had a small boat as a walking aid, and with a little spiritual power, he could travel in the sea of clouds.
Yan Huanming got on the boat first and pulled Shi Ning up. Shan Nai also jumped on. Just as he jumped on the boat, there was a meowing sound.
"What's wrong, Shan Nai?"
Shan Nai's body was covered with fur, and he arched his body and clamped his tail tightly. He bared his teeth and breathed at a corner.
Shi Ning quickly picked up Shan Zhi, looked around the corner, and let out an unconscious sigh.
I don't know when there was a green python on the boat, coiled around the entire stern of the boat. The python was huge and its body was thicker than Shi Ning's thigh. At this moment, it stuck out its long tongue and made a hissing sound.
Hearing the noise, Gu Chong came up quickly and said, "Junior sister, I didn't scare you. This is my spiritual beast, Xiao Qing."
"Xiao Qing, say hello to everyone." Gu Chong touched the triangular snake head. Said easily.
"He's very docile and won't hurt anyone."
"That's good." Although Shi Ning said this, he took a few steps back honestly.
"Snake, Xiaoqing." Shannai called Xiaoqing's name, making Gu Chong envious.
"Spirit beasts can talk, and they can save a lot of time when getting along. Junior sister is really lucky."
Which monk doesn't want his spirit beast to talk to him?
"Senior Brother Gu, don't take it too seriously. Xiaoqing might suddenly be able to speak one day." Shi Ning comforted him.
Gu Chong suddenly thought of something and said, "Let's do this. I'll let Xiao Qing and Shan Nai stay together. Maybe Xiao Qing will be able to speak after being influenced."
Shan Nai's tail was already raised after hearing what he just said .
When I got up, I wasn't as scared as before.
"Nai, Shan Nai."
Shi Ning understood what Shan Nai meant. "Yes, yes, Shan Nai can talk. It's great."
Gu Chong looked at Shan Nai's talking style and was really envious. He placed the green snake on the mountain. Next to Nai, "What if I learn to speak after being nurtured by Shan Nai?"
But it was obvious that Xiao Qing had no interest in talking at all. Every time he was placed next to Shan Nai, he would sneak away. He was captured again and escaped again.
Gu Chong: "Why doesn't Xiaoqing like to talk?" Shan Nai obviously talks so fast.
Shi Ning stood at a safe distance away from the green snake, shaking his head to show that he didn't know. At this time, a clear child's voice suddenly said loudly: "Stupid!"
Shi Ning turned to look at Shan Nai, and Shan Nai repeated loudly: "Qing, Stupid! "
Although Xiaoqing can't speak, he has long been familiar with human nature and can understand human speech. Now when he heard a black cat who was still a human being calling him stupid, he became angry. He curled up and made a "hissing" sound with his mouth wide open.
"What is Xiaoqing talking about?" Shi Ning asked.
Gu Chong touched his head and said awkwardly: "It's not a nice thing to say anyway. This is what Xiaoqing looks
like when he's angry." Shannai was not to be outdone, "Stupid! Stupid! Stupid!" He even imitated Xiaoqing and hissed. The hissing sound made Xiaoqing's whole snake knotted in anger. Even if I want to come over and bite the mangosteen, I can't move, I can only squirm hard on the ground.
Shan Nai was very disgusted with lying on the ground and imitating Xiao Qing, pretending that her two short legs were tripped together.
Seeing that the two were about to fight, Gu Chong and Shi Ning quickly took the two away, one at the bow and one at the stern. Even though they were far apart, the sound of the two quarreling echoed on the boat.
"Stupid! Qing, stupid!"
"Hiss!"
Fortunately, the boat was very fast and arrived at Cangshan in less than half an hour. Everyone's ears can finally calm down for a while.
The spiritual plants all over the mountains and plains of Cangshan, because few people set foot on them, grow wantonly and block out the sky and the sun. After stepping into Cangshan Mountain, the vision in front of me became very dim, and all the movements around me were magnified several times. Even though there was just the sound of rustling on the fallen leaves, it made everyone a lot more nervous.
After walking a few miles, we heard several quacking sounds in the distance.
"The voice of the black-feathered crane." Yan Huanming stood at the front of the team, looking straight ahead with firm eyes.
"Everyone, be careful. The Black Feathered Crane's lair is ahead."
Although the Black Feather Crane is a low-level spiritual beast, it is rumored that the leader of the Black Feather Crane has suddenly experienced a surge in cultivation recently, so he must be careful in everything he does. They rest during the day and come out in full force when night falls. Yan Huanming's purpose on this trip was to take advantage of the daylight to wipe out the Black Feather Crane's lair.
At this time, Su Jinjin took the initiative to walk up to Shi Ning and said with a troubled face, "Junior sister, I have something to tell you."
"What is it?" Shi Ning turned around and asked. Su Jinjin didn't speak to Shi Ning along the way, and suddenly spoke for no apparent reason.
Su Jinjin crossed his hands and said, "I'm sorry about what happened last time in the Valley of Beasts. I believed Zhao Tiantian and misunderstood you. And I said those words." Shi
Ning waved his hands as if he didn't care, "It's all over. No, it's nothing."
But Su Jinjin still hesitated to speak.
"Senior Sister, is there anything else you can do?"
Su Jinjin intertwined her hands with her cheeks slightly red, "We will go to Black Feather Crane's lair later. Can Junior Sister stay here and wait for us?"
"What do you mean?" Ning was a little confused.
"The Black Feather Nest is very dangerous. Junior sister now only has the first level of Qi Refining, no, the second level. It is not enough to deal with the Black Feather Crane."
"Although your two other senior brothers and I have already built the foundation, if we still need to incarnate to take care of it, What you said is really too much."
Shi Ning showed a look of realization. It turned out that he felt that she was holding back.
"But don't worry, junior sister, I will give you half of the elixir I got this time. Just consider it as an apology from last time."
Su Jinjin actually said this out of selfish motives. If she brought Shi Ning, she would The worst thing is that if she encounters any danger, it will take a lot of time to save her. Maybe you won't be able to get a single beast elixir, so it's really not worth it.
If Shi Ning didn't go, they would get a lot for themselves. Even if they gave half to Shi Ning, the remaining half would still be a lot.
It would be better to let Shi Ning stay at the entrance of the Black Feather Nest. "Junior Sister, it's much safer this way, isn't it?"
Su Jinjin expressed her thoughts anxiously and looked at Shi Ning calmly.
"What do you think, junior sister?"
Gu Chong came over at some point and had the same idea.
"I can. The word "ok" hasn't been uttered yet.
"No." Yan Huanming interrupted.
"We agreed to go on a mission together, how can we leave Ning Ning here alone?"
Su Jinjin advised: "Senior brother, we are also doing this for our junior sister's good."
"You have seen how ferocious the Black Feathered Crane is."
"Wan Wan What should I do if Junior Sister 1 is in danger after she goes there?"
Su Jinjin's words hit Yan Huanming's weakness. He was really afraid that Shi Ning would be in danger.
"Although senior brother is only one step away from the golden elixir, can
we definitely guarantee that junior sister will not be injured?" "Besides, we still don't know why Black Feather Crane's mana suddenly increased greatly. This is the first time for junior sister to participate in a mission, so why should we let him Will she take the risk?" Although Su Jinjin said everything from Shi Ning's perspective, it was actually for herself.
"Yes, senior brother, let me stay here." Shi Ning also advised her. After all, she was also afraid of death. It is indeed safer for her to stay here with the amulet given by Fei Yun than to go to Black Feather Crane.
Gu Chong also advised: "Senior brother, we are not saying that we will abandon our junior sister. We are just asking our junior sister to wait for us here. Then we can distribute the beast pills to our junior sister."
Even Xiao Qing stood in the middle of the road, standing vertically. He stood up and hissed at Shan Nai, with the obvious intention of telling Shan Nai, the one who was holding him back, not to go.
Yan Huanming sighed, "In that case, junior sister, please stay here. If anything happens, use the telegraph to notify me in time."
"No problem. Goodbye, senior brother and senior sister, come back soon!"
After the three of them left, Shi Ning and Shan Naimo found a place to meditate and looked at the seeds in his Dantian, not knowing how they sprouted. What will it look like? Then he moved his gaze to the spiritual plants all over Cangshan Mountain.
Shi Ning continued to gather spiritual power and began to "reinforce the growth". As he used his spiritual power more and more often, Shi Ning became very skilled in controlling how much spiritual power he released.
At this time, Shi Ning saw a diseased red flower. The red flower was no bigger than Shi Ning's palm, and there were white spots on the petals. Red and white interlaced, it looks very beautiful.
Shi Ning couldn't bear the flower to wither like this, so she gathered a spiritual power and poured it into the heart of the flower.
With the injection of spiritual power, the bright red flowers gradually raised their heads and their petals bloomed one by one. Everything is going in the right direction, but as time goes by, the red flowers become larger and larger, and the stems and leaves expand several times as if they are inflated.
Looking at the scene in front of him, Shi Ning suddenly felt something was not good. He took a few steps back, picked up the mountain bag and ran away.
The delicate red flowers grew bigger and bigger, and their rhizomes became thicker and thicker, spiraling and spreading, following Shi Ning closely. As the flowers passed by, all vegetation, birds and animals were swallowed up.
Although he had the amulet with him, Shi Ning didn't dare to bet on whether the amulet could keep him safe at this moment. He recalled the moves he just learned yesterday and ran faster. But after all, it was just cramming last night and it was of little use.
The piranha behind him was only one step away from Shi Ning. As long as he got closer, he could swallow Shi Ning and Shan Nai into his belly.
