Chapter 551: Cultivating Essence Energy
Chapter 551: Cultivating Essence Energy
"I feel that the Spatial Force I use when employing my Natural Talent Spell is different."
White Spirit shook her head at this moment.
"My Natural Talent Spell is more about penetrating Barrier Restrictions, as if it's breaking through a different kind of power restriction.
But if you insist on an explanation, I'm not sure how to describe it."
Hearing White Spirit's words, Chu Ning nodded slightly.
He stopped questioning White Spirit and began to recall his previous insights.
The reason he had asked White Spirit to sense the Ethereal Key's manipulation was to hope that she could also grasp some techniques from this spatial transmission.
However, it seemed that his wishful thinking had been a bit one-sided.
On the contrary, his own insights might be deeper.
"Can Essence Energy better manipulate Spatial Force?"
At this moment, Chu Ning recalled his previous insights and then began to sense the Essence Energy within his body.
Ever since he sensed the existence of Essence Energy in the forbidden grounds of the Ten Thousand Laws Tree years ago, Chu Ning had been using nearly four-tenths of the Spirit Energy he cultivated to transform it.
If not for this, Chu Ning felt that he might have been able to further improve his cultivation.
Nevertheless, after accumulating this Essence Energy within his body, Chu Ning could indeed feel the enhancement in various aspects.
But when it came to mobilizing and manipulating it, Chu Ning had tried before without success.
So, he eventually stopped attempting it frequently.
Now, Chu Ning began to carefully sense the existence of Essence Energy within his body and tried to drive it.
Chu Ning's eyebrows furrowed slightly as he still could sense the presence of Essence Energy.
However, when he truly tried to manipulate it, he felt powerless.
Whether Chu Ning was using the Five Elements Chaos Art or the Nine Transformations Body Refining Art, or even both cultivation methods simultaneously, he couldn't genuinely drive the Essence Energy within his body.
"If Essence Energy is a higher-level power, it seems that a more advanced technique is required to manipulate it.
It's likely the legendary Immortal Stage Holy Scripture, and I have a premonition that this power might be related to breaking through to the Spirit Transformation Realm."
After several attempts, Chu Ning stood up, deciding to give up on trying to manipulate Essence Energy.
At this moment, Chu Ning refocused his attention on his insights into Spatial Force.
Then, subconsciously, he performed the Ethereal Dodging Technique.
"The fluctuations of Spatial Force in this Ethereal Dodging Technique are indeed very similar to the Spatial Force driven by the Ethereal Key.
Hmm, I wonder if I can mobilize Essence Energy while using Ethereal Dodging."
Thinking this, Chu Ning once again performed the Ethereal Dodging Technique.
As he did so, Chu Ning tried to focus his attention on the Essence Energy within his body, attempting to drive it.
To Chu Ning's surprise, the Essence Energy within his body reacted this time.
However, before he could drive it, the Ethereal Dodging Technique had already ended, and Chu Ning had appeared twenty zhang away.
But the fluctuation of Essence Energy within his body made Chu Ning's expression turn joyful.
This time, with prior preparation, Chu Ning drove the Essence Energy within his body almost simultaneously as he performed the Ethereal Dodging Technique.
The next moment, Chu Ning felt that with the driving of Essence Energy, the Spatial Force acting on his body indeed strengthened significantly.
When his figure flashed and disappeared at the destination, Chu Ning turned back and realized he had appeared twenty-five zhang away.
"The distance increased by five zhang! And this is when I'm not very proficient at it!"
Chu Ning's heart was filled with both surprise and joy.
He continued to try to drive the Essence Energy while using the Ethereal Dodging Technique.
From the initial clumsiness, where he might not even be able to utilize the assistance of Essence Energy, Chu Ning gradually became stable and could teleport up to twenty-five zhang.
At this point, Chu Ning felt that the Essence Energy within his body seemed to be almost depleted.
He immediately took out the Primordial Stone and began cultivating the Five Elements Chaos Art and the Nine Transformations Body Refining Art to recover.
It was then that Chu Ning discovered that, just like the recovery of spiritual power, the restoration of Essence Energy was much simpler than cultivation.
With just a small amount of Primordial Power consumed, Chu Ning had already recovered his Essence Energy.
Naturally, Chu Ning continued to practice the Ethereal Dodging Technique.
Half a month later...
"Forty zhang!
This is almost twice the distance of my previous teleportation, and it's the limit of what I can currently achieve."
At this moment, Chu Ning nodded in satisfaction.
Such a teleportation distance was a significant improvement for him.
He had also fought against many Late-stage Nascent Soul cultivators.
Most of them could only teleport around twenty zhang.
This meant that in terms of dodging techniques, he had a significant advantage over Late-stage Nascent Soul cultivators.
And such an advantage often determined the outcome of battles.
Chu Ning swept his Divine Sense across the entire island and soon discovered the shadows of White Spirit and the Golden Thunder Eagle.
The Golden Thunder Eagle was hunting near the island, occasionally catching Spirit Fish that swam close to the surface.
Some seabirds near the island were also captured by the two eagles and brought into the island.
White Spirit, on the other hand, was planting various Spirit Herbs and using the Mystic Youth Transformation Art to create talismans to nurture the herbs she had planted earlier.
Compared to half a month ago, the island now had a more profound atmosphere of a Cultivation Cave Mansion, with less of the loneliness that had been present due to the departure of the previous cultivators.
Seeing that everything on the island was normal, Chu Ning continued to ponder the interaction between Essence Energy and Spatial Force.
At this moment, Chu Ning shifted his attention from Ethereal Dodging to the Void Finger and Void Rift.
"If Essence Energy can manipulate greater Spatial Power, then it definitely won't be limited to just Ethereal Dodging.
Although the Void Finger and Void Rift utilize Spatial Power differently, the underlying principles should be the same."
With this in mind, Chu Ning began to use the less exhausting Void Finger.
As he performed the technique, he also tried to manipulate his Essence Energy.
With his previous experience of using Ethereal Dodging, Chu Ning had a clearer sense of the mutual enhancement between the two energies.
This time, he succeeded with just one attempt.
"With this attempt, the power of the Void Finger has increased by ten percent!
Indeed, the Void Finger is also a direction worth improving."
Thinking about the date he had agreed upon with Jian Qingshan, Chu Ning decided to dedicate his time on the island to researching and improving the Void Finger and Void Rift.
Of course, he didn't neglect the True Spirit Art and Fetus Deity Technique, continuing to practice these secret techniques.
...
"Spirit Feather Sect? They are a powerful force in Beichuan, and their recent activities in this sea area are already concerning. But now, a High-stage Nascent Soul Grandmaster has come to our door? Shouldn't a Nascent Soul Grandmaster of that level be seeking out the Sea God Palace?"
As soon as Meng Shiyuan spoke, another Nascent Soul stage cultivator standing below him asked,
"Sect Master, should we meet with them?"
"Meet? Of course!" Meng Shiyuan stood up from his seat.
"
A High-stage Nascent Soul Grandmaster...who would dare offend such a person?"
"Let's go and greet them outside."
As he spoke, Meng Shiyuan had already flown out to meet them. When he saw the cultivators from the Starfeather Sect, he couldn't help but feel a sense of surprise.
"Two Nascent Soul Grandmasters coming together, this must be a matter of great importance!"
Meng Shiyuan immediately cupped his hands in greeting towards the two cultivators in front of him.
"So it's the esteemed Tong Zhanghong and Dan Tianqi from the Starfeather Sect. Your visit is an honor!"
As he spoke politely, Meng Shiyuan's back stiffened slightly.
Two High-stage Nascent Soul Grandmasters...if they wanted to do something to him, he feared he wouldn't even have a chance to retaliate.
"Friend Meng, Tong and I have come unannounced, and I'm sure you must be surprised by our visit," Tong Zhanghong said, one of the two visitors, an elder in a brocade robe with a friendly demeanor.
However, Meng Shiyuan knew that this elder was the most ruthless among the three High-stage Nascent Soul Grandmasters of the Starfeather Sect.
On the other hand, Dan Tianqi, with his cold and proud expression, was known for his impressive cultivation and straightforward personality.
So when Tong Zhanghong suddenly spoke up, Meng Shiyuan's heart, which had been filled with unease, became even more alert, and he didn't dare speak casually.
Fortunately, Tong Zhanghong didn't make Meng Shiyuan guess for long. He casually took out a jade slip and tossed it towards Meng Shiyuan.
"Friend Meng, we heard that your sect was searching for this person recently. Is this true?"
Upon hearing this, Meng Shiyuan immediately scanned the jade slip with his Divine Sense.
When he saw the young cultivator in a white robe inside the jade slip, he couldn't help but look up at the two cultivators across from him.
Then, with some hesitation, he said, "Could it be that you two have come because of this person?"
"Don't worry, friend Meng. We have no personal grudge against this person," Tong Zhanghong replied with a slight smile.
"On the contrary, this person previously severely injured one of our Nascent Soul Elders.
Our sect had been searching for him in Beichuan for some time, but we never expected that he would flee to this overseas region.
We happened to pass by here and learned of this matter, so we came to ask you for any information you might have."
Upon hearing Tong Zhanghong's words, Meng Shiyuan finally heaved a sigh of relief.
Then, with a hint of annoyance on his face, he said,
"Indeed, our sect was searching for this person because he had commanded a spirit beast to injure one of our disciples.
Unfortunately, by the time our fellow sect members caught up with him, he had already fled far away.
We could only guess that he might have gone out to sea based on the direction he was last seen heading.
As for where he went exactly, we have no idea."
"No need to worry!" Tong Zhanghong smiled and waved his hand.
"We will be staying in this eastern sea area for some time. If your sect discovers this person's whereabouts, please inform us.
This jade slip contains a method of contact.
If we are still here, we also wish to find this person and seek an explanation."
"It would be best if you two could deal with this person personally!" Meng Shiyuan said, his face briefly flashing with joy.
"Rest assured, friend. If our sect discovers this person's whereabouts, we will inform you two immediately."
Tong Zhanghong nodded after hearing this.
"In that case, we won't bother you any further, friend Meng."
After saying this, Tong Zhanghong and Dan Tianqi immediately flew away.
At this moment, Meng Shiyuan watched as the two High-stage Nascent Soul cultivators from the Starfeather Sect disappeared, his heart filled with unease.
"The Starfeather Sect sent two Nascent Soul cultivators to this sea area, but I wonder what their purpose is.
However, since this person has offended even the Starfeather Sect, unless he stays hidden in the near future, he will have a hard time escaping his fate.
At least it saves our sect from having to take action ourselves."
After saying this, he turned and instructed, "Continue to keep an eye on this person's movements in the nearby sea area, and send out the news immediately upon discovery."
