My Talent For Cultivating Immortals Can Be Refreshed Chapter 144

Chapter 144 Different Thousands of Lakes and Thousands of Islands, Completed Mana Tempering

Chun Ning's spiritual consciousness is powerful, and his vision is far beyond that of ordinary qi cultivators.

From a distance, he saw a dock where a boat was parked, and immediately drove the boat over.

After landing on the island, you will see a long street with people coming and going, and it looks very busy.

There are many monks among them, and about half of them are mortals with no cultivation.

At this moment, Chu Ning's appearance has not changed, but his cultivation is revealed at the eighth level of Qi training.

 When he first arrives at a place, he will naturally not fully expose his cultivation level.

 But in such a mixed place, having too low a level of cultivation is not a good thing.

As expected, Chu Ning's cultivation at the eighth level of Qi Refining is still somewhat intimidating, and it's okay for some mortals not to see it.

Occasionally, a monk looked at Chu Ning and saw the angry look on his face. After noticing his cultivation in the late stage of Qi refining, he immediately looked away.

 At the same time, people also stayed away a little bit.

Chun Ning was naturally able to notice this scene, but he didn't show much expression on his face.

This Caiwu Island is, after all, the outermost aura island among Thousand Lakes and Thousand Islands. Judging from the level of aura experienced, it is very average.

 It is estimated that there are not many monks in the late stage of Qi refining on this island.

Chuning walked along the street, wanting to find a place to inquire about news.

 At this moment, a figure came up quickly.

“This fellow Taoist is very nervous, but is it your first time coming to this thousand lakes and islands?”

Chuning heard the sound and stopped to look, only to see a middle-aged man dressed in a scholarly manner standing in front of him.

This man was wearing a Confucian shirt and holding a paper fan in his hand. He was about forty years old and had faint mana fluctuations on his body.

However, his cultivation level is really pitifully low, probably only at the level of the third level of Qi Refining.

Chun Ning did not shy away. He nodded and said:

"I have just arrived here. I wonder what this Taoist brother can give me?"

 The middle-aged man in scholar's shirt suddenly smiled when he heard Chu Ning's words.

“I don't dare to give you any advice, but I just saw that my Taoist friend came here for the first time, and I thought it was necessary to find out some information.

 Chen is not talented and wants to earn some spiritual stones. "

Chun Ning also became interested when he heard this.

“Oh? Fellow Taoist, are you well-informed?”

The middle-aged scholar-shirted man had a look of complacency on his face at this moment, but he quickly calmed down and said with a smile:

“Chen's spiritual talent was extremely poor, he had no hope of cultivating a spiritual skill, and he had no other immortality skills, so he found another way and started a business of buying and selling information.

 It actually made fellow Taoists laugh. "

Chuning nodded, "Okay, let's find a place to chat. It just so happens that I also want to hear some things here."

He had indeed seen the introduction of Thousand Lakes and Thousand Islands from the Qingxi Sect's information before, but he did not think that the information was accurate and complete.

 Since we are here, it would be better to inquire from the local area.

Hearing this, the Confucian scholar surnamed Chen said with a happy face:

“Fellow Taoist, please come with me. Let's go to Zuixian Tower to talk.”

"Zui Xian Lou." Chu Ning stood under the restaurant and whispered the name softly.

 I didn't expect that I could see the name of a restaurant from the mortal world here.

At this moment, the Confucian scholar surnamed Chen next to him said:

“Fellow Taoist, please don't underestimate these three words. Zuixian Tower is the number one restaurant in Qianhu Lake and Thousand Islands. As long as there are more people on the island, there is Zuixian Tower.

　　It is said that this Zuixian Tower was directly founded by several leading families of the Thousand Island League.

Oh, by the way, the name of this restaurant is not for nothing. There is a kind of wine in this restaurant called Shenxianzui.

 Even monks who have completed their refining period will get drunk if they drink too much. Fellow Taoist, you might as well try it later. "

Chun Ning was immediately surprised when he heard this.

The body of a cultivator is washed by spiritual energy. Let alone a perfect Qi refiner, a cultivator in the middle stage of Qi refinement will not get drunk even if he drinks alcohol.

 But a monk surnamed Chen actually said that this wine would make him drunk if he drank it, which really made him a little curious.

However, when the two sat down and Chu Ning heard that this pot of wine actually cost five spiritual stones, he immediately shook his head and said:

“Forget it, these five spiritual stones are too expensive. Let's change to some ordinary tea.”

He does have a lot of spiritual stones in his storage bag, but when he first arrives at a place, he will never reveal his wealth casually.

Hearing Chu Ning's words, Confucian scholar surnamed Chen had a faint look of disappointment on his face, but he quickly put it away and said:

“I'm Chen Wangdao, I haven't asked my friend's name yet.”

 “Chun Ning!”

Chun Ning did not change his name anymore. After all, this place is far away from Qingxi Sect, and to the north is the sphere of influence of other large sects.

 The Qingxi Sect's tentacles can't reach this place yet.

“It turns out to be Fellow Daoist Chu. I don't know what news Fellow Daoist wants to hear.” Chen Wangdao asked.

“The rough division of power in Thousand Lakes and Thousand Islands, some matters needing attention, how to find better places to open caves, etc…”

After Chu Ning finished speaking, Chen Wangdao nodded and began to talk.

 After hearing this, Chu Ning was slightly stunned.

“Are you saying that even if you are willing to give out spiritual stones, you still can't buy a place from the Thousand Islands Alliance to open a cave?”

“Yes, a few decades ago, all one had to do was hand over spiritual stones to the Thousand Islands Alliance.

 But in recent years, the number of monks in the Thousand Lakes and Thousand Islands has continued to increase. Islands with spiritual veins, even those with the lowest level of spiritual veins, have already had monks. "

Chen Wangdao nodded and told Chu Ning:

“In recent decades, the management of Thousand Lakes and Thousand Islands has been very different from before.

Nearly every spiritual island has one or several monks in the late stage of Qi refining who jointly serve as the island owners, and they are responsible for collecting the spiritual stones from the monks on the island.

 Then it will be handed over to the Thousand Islands League. "

Chuning couldn't help but frown slightly when he heard this.

“So if I want to find a place to open a cave for cultivation now, I should no longer look for the Thousand Island Alliance, but the island owners of each island?”

 Chen Wangdao lightly shook the folding fan in his hand and said:

“It is true, and in these spiritual islands, wherever the spiritual energy is richer, there are mostly monks in the late stage of Qi refining.

Fellow Taoist is in the late stage of Qi refining. Even if he goes to various islands now, he may not be able to find a satisfactory place as he wishes. "

Hearing this, Chu Ning frowned even more.

 Without a place with strong spiritual energy, his cultivation would be greatly affected.

After all, even if he can make talismans, the spiritual plants in his hands will eventually have to be planted in a place with rich spiritual energy, which is equally important for his cultivation.

“However, it's not completely impossible.”

Chen Wangdao smiled and spoke slowly.

 Then under Chu Ning's gaze, he said calmly:

“Thirty years ago, the Thousand Islands Alliance launched the Thousand Islands Competition, which was held once every five years. As long as a monk fell in love with other islands.

In the Thousand Islands Competition, you can challenge that island. If you win, you can obtain the island's residence and jurisdiction. "

“Thousand Island Competition?” Chu Ning heard this and vaguely guessed that what Chen Wangdao was talking about was related to this.

As expected, the other party immediately said:

“One month from now, there will be the Thousand Island Competition, and some large islands with second-level mid-grade or above spiritual veins may not see much action.

 But some islands with second-order low-grade spiritual veins or first-order spiritual veins.

 Nowadays, many are recruiting experts from all walks of life, hoping to strengthen the strength of their own islands.

 Either don't let others occupy it, or you can go to a better island. "

 Speaking of this, Chen Wangdao looked at Chu Ning:

“With the strength of fellow Taoists, as long as they are willing to join, I think there are still islands that are willing to accept them.”

Chuning also understood at this moment, that is, he must first represent an island in the Thousand Island Competition.

If you can help this island win, you will naturally be able to get a place to build a cave.

Chuning frowned slightly when he heard this.

 He originally thought that when he came here, he would be able to solve the problems in the cave by spending some spiritual stones.

But I didn't expect that I would eventually have to participate in this battle of skills.

However, after thinking about it, Chu Ning sighed secretly in his heart and made up his mind to give it a try.

After all, he has been away from the Qingxia Mountains for several months, and his cultivation has been slowed down a lot. Many spiritual plants in the storage bag have also reached the point where they must be planted.

 For a while, he really couldn't find a suitable place other than here.

So, Chu Ning asked Chen Wangdao:

 “Where can I get news about recruiting helpers from various islands?”

“I am not a talented person. I have a piece of information in my hand. If you want it, fellow Taoist, just give it to me with two spiritual stones.”

Chen Wangdao looked at Chu Ning with a smile on his face as if he had expected it.

Chu Ning didn't waste much time immediately. He took out four spiritual stones from his storage bag and handed them to Chen Wangdao together with the fee for inquiring about the information.

Just now, Chen Wangdao gave Chu Ning a rough map of Thousand Lakes and Thousand Islands, and together with the information, he counted two spiritual stones.

Chen Wangdao was immediately overjoyed and said:

 “My fellow Taoist is really a cheerful person.”

As he spoke, he took out a thin booklet from his storage bag and handed it to Chu Ning.

Chun Ning took it immediately and looked through it carefully.

Although Chen Wangdao is average in strength, he seems to be greedy for money.    But this thing is still good.

After Chu Ning opened the booklet, he saw in detail which islands needed to recruit helpers and what cultivation levels were required.

 There are actually hundreds of messages.

Chun Ning glanced at it briefly and put it into his storage bag.

At this time, Chen Wangdao continued:

“Fellow Taoist, this month's competition is on Qianhuan Island where the Thousand Island League is located.

 So most of the islands are currently recruiting people there, and fellow Taoists only need to go to the Thousand Fantasy Island. "

After Chu Ning nodded, he asked the other party:

 “Then how to get to this Thousand Fantasy Island?”

 “Teleportation array.” Chen Wangdao glanced at Chu Ning with some confusion.

 Then he patted his head again and said, "I forgot that Taoist friend just came here.

 In fact, this kind of short-distance teleportation array is not difficult for sects, and many sects can also arrange it.

  But among these different sectarian forces, the management of the teleportation array is a big trouble.

 So I heard that except for places under the jurisdiction of some large sects, there are relatively few teleportation arrays in other places. "

Chun Ning nodded. For example, the area near Qingxi Sect is not that big, but if you go to Qinghefang, there is really no need to set up a large teleportation array.

 As for going to Fengxiafang, it seems that the formation is not suitable.

Of course, this has a lot to do with the fact that the formation method of the Qingxia Mountains itself is not good.

Thinking of this, Chu Ning asked curiously:

“Then among the Thousand Islands Alliance, are there people who are proficient in formations?”

“Fellow Taoist, you guessed it right.” Chen Wangdao replied with a smile.

“One of the past leaders of the Thousand Islands Alliance is a family called the Cen family. The people in this family are indeed proficient in formations.”

Chun Ning then looked astonished.

Immediately, he said goodbye to Chen Wangdao and left. Following the direction indicated by the other party, he found the location of the teleportation array in the center of the island.

 In the teleportation formation, there is a monk in his thirties at the moment.

After Chu Ning explained his intention, the monk said expressionlessly:

“Go to Qianhuan Island for ten spirit stones at a time. You can give out ten spirit stones yourself and leave immediately, or you can wait here until you gather the people before going there.”

As soon as Chu Ning heard this, he immediately chose the second option.

 Having just entered the Thousand Lakes and Thousand Islands area, it is better to keep a low profile.

The monk was not surprised and asked Chu Ning to wait beside the formation.

 Fortunately, there are many people on Caiwu Island, and Qianhuan Island is the main island here, so there are many people going there.

Chun Ning only waited here for less than a stick of incense before gathering ten people.

 After each person handed over a spiritual stone, the thirty-year-old monk activated the teleportation array.

“This is Thousand Fantasy Island?”

Stepping out of the teleportation array, Chu Ning looked around and saw that the island was surrounded by spiritual mist, which was already as dense as the ordinary inner gate of Qingxi Sect.

“This island is probably a higher-grade second-level spiritual vein.”

Chun Ning murmured secretly in his heart, but when he thought that this was the location of the Thousand Island Alliance itself, he felt relieved.

Walking into the street, Chu Ning paid careful attention. Compared with Caiwu Island, there were many fewer mortals on this island.

 Looking down, seven to eight out of ten people are cultivators of immortality.

And the level is also higher than that of Aya Kirishima. Basically, everyone has cultivation level above the middle stage of Qi training, and those in the late stage of Qi training are not particularly rare.

However, it is rare to see the ninth level of Qi refining and complete Qi refining.

Chun Ning was not in a hurry to check the places where helpers were recruited on each island. The previous words were just Chen Wangdao's remarks.

Although he believed it somewhat in his heart, he naturally did not believe it completely, so he still had to do some research.

 Zui Xian Tower.

 Chun Ning once again chose this place where dragons and snakes were relatively mixed.

The news that can be heard in this kind of place is mixed, and many of them are hearsay, but there is still a lot of information that is very useful.

 Compared to the Zuixian Tower on Caiwu Island, the Zuixian Tower on Qianhuan Island is larger and has more people.

And most of them are monks who are in the middle stage of Qi refining and above.

Many of them still use sound transmission when talking.

However, under the influence of Chu Ning's powerful spiritual consciousness, these words were heard one by one.

 Two quarters of an hour later, Chu Ning left the Zuixian Tower.

“Sure enough, as Chen Wangdao said, one month later, there will be the Thousand Island Competition.

However, judging from the discussions among the people in Zuixian Tower, those who are eager to recruit now are islands with relatively average aura and strength.

Those islands with second-level spiritual veins will only come out to recruit in the last ten days because they are not worried about not being able to recruit people. "

Chun Ning had this information in his mind, and he made a decision in his heart.

“Although I don't want to join those big islands with the strongest aura, I still have to get by. In that case, I have to wait.

 On this island, there is a place specifically for casual cultivators to trade. You can go and have a look.

 There will be many places that need spiritual stones in the future. Maybe I can make some talismans in the past few days and sell them. "

Chun Ning thought to himself, and walked towards the gathering place of casual cultivators on the island, ready to explore the way first.

 After half a day like this, Chu Ning checked into an inn on the island specially prepared for foreign monks.

　　It is said to be an inn, but it is built on the top of a mountain, and it is quite mysterious.

“This room is actually made of special spiritual rock, which can not only isolate mana fluctuations.

Moreover, monks who are below the middle stage of foundation building cannot be damaged by spells. "

Chuning looked at the ten-foot-sized room, feeling a little curious.

 He tried to send out a Cangmu Sword Technique directly, and sure enough, the wall of the room was not damaged at all.

“It is indeed a good place to practice, but the price is a bit high, four spiritual stones a day.

 Even if it is a one-month package, it still costs 100 spiritual stones. "

Chun Ning shook his head. This price was simply beyond the reach of ordinary monks.

But after all, this place is located relatively close to the core spiritual veins in Thousand Fantasy Island, and the spiritual energy is quite rich.

Plus one hundred low-grade spiritual stones, it's really not too much for Chu Ning, and he already has a need for a training venue.

 So even though the price was not low, he still chose to rent a room.

“The practice of Yanhuo Divine Wood Technique will be accelerated, and we will take advantage of this month to complete all the mana tempering.

 At the same time, other delayed cultivation practices must be caught up as soon as possible. "

Having made up his mind, Chu Ning just looked around and immediately sat down cross-legged.

 【Yanhuo Shenmu Kung (high grade Xuan level), first level (90/5000)】

 【Nine Yan Body Refining Techniques, Volume 1, Unstoppable Tendons (702/1500)】

 【Alchemy, second level (255/2000)】

 In the past three months, Chu Ning has been in a place where spiritual energy is lacking, so he has basically not been able to absorb enough fire attribute spiritual energy.

 As for the Yanhuo Divine Wood Skill, the natural progress will not be much faster.

However, Chu Ning is not without gains, because it relies entirely on the conversion of wood attribute mana in his body, and he has a deeper understanding of wood generating fire.

The spiritual energy of heaven and earth here is relatively strong, so Chu Ning simply did not use any pills or fire crystals.

 Continue to follow the most primitive method and use water milling skills to continue to complete the tempering and conversion of mana.

With this kind of practice, seven full days will pass.

 Seven days later, Chu Ning, who was practicing, suddenly opened his eyes.

 【Yanhuo Shenmu Kung (high grade Xuan level), first level (100/5000)】

As he expected, when the proficiency of the Yanhuo Shenmu Kung Fu reached 100, all his mana completed the tempering conversion.

Chun Ning raised his hand casually, and a burst of mana condensed on his fingertips.

  Sensing the perfectly balanced dual attribute mana of wood and fire above, Chu Ning nodded with satisfaction.

 Nearly a hundred days of hard work, the results are undoubtedly very significant.

 He not only consolidated his cultivation at the ninth level of Qi refining.

 At the same time, he has extremely pure and easy control over the mana with the dual attributes of wood and fire.

At this moment, Chu Ning thought, and the mana on his fingertips was immediately transformed into pure wood-attribute mana.

Then he waved again, and another wisp of fire attribute mana came out of his left finger.

The next moment, Chu Ning's heart beat, and the two groups of mana instantly changed again, turning into dual-attribute mana balanced by wood and fire.

“The Yanhuo Divine Wood Technique is now considered a real introduction to me, and I can practice this technique normally in the future.

 And it's time to practice this fire attribute spell! "
