Chapter 101： Earth Spirit Crystal

Chapter 101 Earth Spirit Crystal

During this period of following Chu Ning, Ling Xiaobai was able to understand and speak a lot more words than before.

From Ling Xiaobai’s intermittent messages, Chu Ning finally got a general idea.

This Ling Xiaobai said that when he came out of the mountain a few days ago, he was chased by these two monsters.

So after seeing Chu Ning's breakthrough in strength, he invited the other party to avenge him.

This little guy said that there is a bigger guy who is even more powerful, and he will go after Chu Ning and it to improve their strength together.

Chuning was squatting down next to the body of the blood-spotted unicorn just now.

After hearing these words, his eyes flickered for a few times and he asked Ling Xiaobai:

"Did you run away from the Qingxia Mountains? Where?"

Ling Xiaobai called out twice, roughly responding to Chu Ning's guess, but the little guy couldn't tell exactly where.

At this moment, Chu Ning finally confirmed the beast disaster that happened before.

It’s really related to this little guy.

The powerful big guy mentioned by Ling Xiaobai is most likely the monster with the strength of the foundation-building stage mentioned by Lin Changqing.

And this further confirmed Chu Ning's judgment that Ling Xiaobai did have an extraordinary origin.

Chuning stopped asking at this time, and he should be able to figure it out later.

At this moment, he looked at the blood-spotted one-horned ape corpse in front of him again.

This first-level high-level demon beast has not yet formed its demon elixir, so the valuable parts are only its body parts.

The most valuable thing about this blood-spotted one-horned ape is undoubtedly its horn.

The next thing is this fur with good defense.

But when his eyes fell on the horn, he frowned slightly.

The blood-spotted one-horned ape has rough skin and thick flesh, but it is not easy to get.

This can be seen from the fact that the monster did not suffer much trauma when his own spell hit the opponent just now.

Thinking like this, Chu Ning began to try to use magic to cut.

But at this moment, Chu Ning tried to use the blade technique and the Cangmu Sword Technique, but could not cut off the unicorn from the blood-spotted unicorn's head.

He frowned and looked at his storage bag.

There are a few magic weapons here, such as the slender young man's thorn and the yellow-faced man's short spear, but they don't look very sharp.

Sure enough, Chu Ning took it out and tried it, but to no avail.

Finally, his attention fell on Old Man Sun's black knife, and he took it out of the storage bag.

Chuning has never taken these things out since they were last put into the storage bag.

At this moment, when he took out the black knife, he couldn't help but let out a surprised "Eh".

Unexpectedly, he saw that the knife, which had lost its spirituality, had returned to its normal appearance at this moment.

As soon as Chu Ning got it, he could feel that its quality was not low, and he could sense mana.

“Could it be said that after leaving it for a period of time, this black knife can be used again?”

Thinking like this, Chu Ning tried to gather mana from his hands and poured it into the black knife.

This knife is no longer unable to inject mana like last time. As soon as Chu Ning's mana came into contact, it easily entered the knife.

Immediately, the black knife began to tremble slightly, and it made a whining sound, as if it was about to fly out at any time.

Chuning quickly withdrew his magic power, and the black knife suddenly returned to normal.

“That’s really the case.” Chu Ning felt happy.

He could clearly feel just now that as long as he continued to inject mana, he could fully activate the knife.

Moreover, this jet-black knife gave him the feeling that it was very lethal.

It requires a lot of mana.

“It seems that this is indeed a rare treasure, but there are great restrictions on its use. I don’t know whether it is due to damage or some other reason.

This is no wonder that Old Man Sun never used it. "

Chuning held the black knife and tried to cut the base of the blood-spotted one-horned ape's horn.

To his surprise, he could easily cut off the blood-spotted one-horned ape's horn.

“This knife is so sharp!”

Chun Ning held the horn of the blood-spotted one-horned ape in one hand and a black knife in the other, and couldn't help but feel a little overjoyed.

He directly slashed at the body of the blood-spotted one-horned ape, and a bloodstain suddenly appeared, and then the piece of fur was torn open.

Without using any magic power, this jet-black knife was able to easily break through the fur of the blood-spotted one-horned ape.

Chun Ning couldn't help but marvel.

If this attack really hits the target with mana, it will indeed be very lethal.

Chuning put the blood-spotted one-horned ape's horn into the storage bag, and then peeled off the complete animal skin.

The freshly peeled animal skin looks a little scary, but it’s not a big problem.

Chuning directly used a cleaning technique, and the animal skin was clean.

Putting the animal skins into the storage bag, Chu Ning came to the body of the female blood-spotted unicorn again.

The horn was cut off in the same manner, and the animal skin was peeled off and put into the storage bag.

At this time, Chu Ning glanced at the caves of the two monster beasts.

After thinking about it for a while, I sensed it with my spiritual sense and found that there was no monster inside.

He then greeted Ling Xiaobai and walked in.

The two blood-spotted one-horned apes were killed by himself, and no other things were seen coming out. There must be no danger in entering.

But he has never seen this monster's cave.

Entering the cave, a fishy smell of monsters suddenly came.

Chun Ning frowned slightly, glared at Ling Xiaobai and said:

“You can’t make it such a stink in the future, or you won’t be able to stay at my place.”

Ling Xiaobai let out an aggrieved "omph", which probably meant why he was like them.

Chun Ning took a quick look and saw that there were indeed no other monsters inside.

However, there are quite a few corpses of first-order primary monsters scattered in this cave.

Chuning even saw the remains of one or two first-level monsters.

Among them, there are also some monster materials that can be directly sold.

For example, armored ox horns, wild boar tusks, etc., although these materials are not very valuable.

 But Chu Ning didn’t want too little, so he simply collected everything he could sell.

At any rate, he now has enough storage bags, so it would be useless if he could pick up spiritual stones easily.

Chun Ning also discovered at this moment that the spiritual energy in this cave was quite good.

Thinking about it for a while, while picking it up, he once again used his spiritual consciousness to sense it carefully.

Want to see what else is good.

After a while, his eyes fell on the place where the two monsters usually lay.

Use the clearing technique to remove all debris on the surface.

Suddenly, a fist-sized yellow spar was revealed.

Chuning walked over and took a look, and immediately felt the rich spiritual energy contained in it.

He pondered for a while, suddenly thought of something, and squatted down happily.

“Is this the Earth Spirit Crystal?”

The so-called spiritual crystals are actually of the same type as spiritual stones. They are both formed by the long-term condensation of spiritual energy into fossils.

But the spiritual stones that monks usually use have no attributes.

Spiritual crystals generally refer to spiritual stones that contain pure spiritual energy.

For example, Earth Spirit Crystal contains pure earth-attribute spiritual energy.

This kind of spiritual crystal, for monks who practice earth attribute skills, the effect of absorbing the spiritual energy is much better than that of spiritual stones.

In addition, some special earth magic weapons also need to be used, so they are very popular in the market.

Chun Ning didn’t know the specific value of such a piece of earth spirit crystal, but he thought it was worth a lot.

Chuning once again took out the black knife and carefully dug out the spiritual crystal from the ground.

When he dug it out completely, the smile on his face became even bigger.

Just now he only saw a fist-sized earth spirit crystal exposed on the surface.

When he dug deeper, he discovered that the spiritual crystal was actually long.

The earth spirit crystal, which is the size of a fist, is nearly 8 inches long.

“No wonder these two earth monsters chose to build their caves here. It turns out there is such a large piece of earth spirit crystal inside.

It seems that the earth spirit here is relatively stronger. "

Chuning smiled as he put the earth spirit crystal directly into the storage bag.

After carefully scanning the cave again to make sure that nothing was missing, Chu Ning came out of the beast cave.

Calling Shanngling Xiaobai, he drove the wind-chasing shuttle and flew back and forth. “Xiao Bai, when I become stronger, you can take me to the place where I came from.”

In the air, Chu Ning smiled and said to Ling Xiaobai.

“嘤!”

What he got was a reply from Ling Xiaobai.

It seems that this little thing is looking forward to it.

Chasing the Wind Shuttle flew all the way to the outside of the mountain. Chu Ning did not return directly to Fang City, but landed at Lingtian.

Entering the spiritual field, Chu Ning used the Green Wood Spring Flower Technique on Jin Yuan Guodu.

After feeling the growth of Jin Yuan Guo, Chu Ning smiled.

“In about half a month, the Jinyuan fruit will be ripe.

At that time, they may believe the number of Jin Yuan Guo if they directly say that 20 acres have been planted. "

Although he only planted 10 acres of Jinyuanguo, the harvest was probably no worse than others who planted 20 acres.

The Qingmu Chunhua Technique performed by Yinmu Spirit Body can really bring a lot of help to these spiritual plants. He didn't even let Ling Xiaobai follow them to ripen them.

The 10 acres of spiritual field next to it are still empty for the time being because there is no need to plant amethyst bamboo anymore.

Let Jin Yuan Guo grow slowly under the influence of Qingmu Chunhua Technique, and Chu Ning returned to Fang City directly by the wind.

Arrived at Fangshi, Chu Ning was about to enter the door. Gu Xiaoqing, who was opposite, seemed to hear the noise, walked to the door and called out to him.

“Junior brother Chu is back. Deacon Lin just came to us to deliver the harvest.

Since you are not here, let me inform you that he has recently been selecting disciples from various cultivating families and will be here tomorrow morning. . "

“The Xiuxian family selects disciples?”

When Chu Ning heard this, she immediately asked Gu Xiaoqing curiously:

“Senior Sister Gu, what is the selection process for the disciples of the Immortal Cultivation Family to join the sect?”

Chuning is indeed a little curious about this.

He was previously selected through the mortal city. He really didn’t know much about how these disciples of the Immortal Cultivation Family who were attached to the Qingxi Sect entered the sect.

Gu Xiaoqing smiled and explained.

“Actually, the selection among cultivating families is similar to the selection of mortals by sects. It is nothing more than arranging deacons or elders from each sect to go to the family to test the spiritual talent.

Then they will be arranged to different places according to their talent level. "

“Of course, there are also some different ones…”

Following Gu Xiaoqing's explanation, Chu Ning finally had a general understanding.

That is the major cultivating families that are attached to the sect, and the sect has arranged for the deacons of the Foreign Affairs Hall to be responsible for liaison.

So under normal circumstances, there will be no large-scale selection.

When these deacons usually go to the Immortal Cultivation Family, they directly check their qualifications and bring them directly back to the sect if they find the best ones.

As for some family members with four or five spiritual roots, they are generally not brought to the sect.

After all, you can practice within the family, and you can be responsible for things like planting spiritual plants.

"If that's the case, then why does Deacon Lin have to come here specifically for selection this time?"

Chun Ning asked with some confusion.

Gu Xiaoqing also said with some confusion: "I'm not particularly sure, but I heard it from Senior Brother Du the other day.

This selection seems to be different. The disciples selected from the major cultivating families this time are all disciples who are at the sixth level of Qi training or the fifth level of Qi training and have the hope of reaching the sixth level of Qi training.

It does not depend on any spiritual qualifications. As long as you have reached this level of cultivation, you can be brought into the sect to practice. "

The sixth level of Qi refining again?

Chuning’s eyes flickered slightly when he heard this.

Why does the sect need so many disciples above the sixth level of Qi refining?

Is it related to the secret mission again?

Or do you want to recruit more disciples to fill the vacancies within the sect?

With this thought in mind, Chu Ning didn't ask Gu Xiaoqing any more questions, maybe she wasn't very clear either.

On the other hand, you can ask more about Lin Changqing, maybe you can get some news.

 In recent months, with Chu Ning giving him spiritual stones or talismans from time to time, the relationship with Lin Changqing has become much closer.

Although he is not as familiar with Zhuang Yunde as before.

But this cold-faced deacon treated Chu Ning quite well.

However, when thinking of Zhuang Yunde, Chu Ning remembered that this practicing disciple from Ding District had gone on some secret mission a few months ago, and he didn't know what the situation was like.

Perhaps, we can try asking Lin Changqing together tomorrow.

Early the next morning, not long after Chu Ning opened the door, Lin Changqing arrived.

Chu Ning took out the spiritual stones that he had prepared long ago. In addition to the 500 that he handed over to the sect, he also took out an additional 30 spiritual stones and gave them to Lin Changqing.

 Lin Changqing saw a gentle smile on his cold face when he saw the two piles of spiritual stones.

He did not directly put away all the spirit stones. Instead, he took out 40 spirit stones from the 500 spirit stones and handed them back to Chu Ning.

“There have been few people coming out of various families recently, there are not many people in this city, and your cultivation level is low.

Let’s give this spiritual stone a slight discount. "

When Chu Ning heard this, he took back the 40 spirit stones and naturally thanked him profusely.

Immediately, he remembered what Gu Xiaoqing said yesterday, and asked curiously:

“Deacon Lin, I heard that the sect has been recruiting a large number of disciples from cultivating immortal families recently. What’s the reason for this?”

Lin Changqing glanced at Chu Ning, pondered for a moment, and then said:

“It was still because of the previous sect mission. This time, the sect arranged too many people. After these few months, we found that many places could not operate.

That's why the sect thought of selecting some qi-refining disciples from the cultivating families to join the sect. "

After a pause, Lin Changqing continued:

“It’s not just the Immortal Cultivation Family, the sect plans to adjust the selection among mortals to once every two years.

Well, these don’t have much to do with you.

Since Fangshi has arranged for you alone, you can pay the monthly payment on time, and the sect will not arrange for anyone else. "

Chun Ning nodded, and then asked pretending to be casual:

“Deacon Lin, when I was in Ding District, I was taken care of by a senior brother named Zhuang Yunde.

He previously participated in a sect mission and said he would come see me when he comes back. I don’t know if he has come back. "

“Master Zhuang’s nephew? I know him. He went to participate in the sect’s mission..."

Speaking of this, Lin Changqing shook his head.

“Most of them didn’t come back. Generally, even if those who went there wanted to come back, it would take one or two years, and some even ten years.

But if he comes back, he will become an inner disciple, and it may not be so convenient for him to come see you. "

Chun Ning wanted to speak again, but Lin Changqing had already waved his hand and said:

“I know you want to ask the sect about the mission, but you really asked the wrong person. Even we deacons don’t know about this kind of thing.

Probably only the elders and sect masters of the sect know about it. Even if you ask me, I can’t answer. "

Lin Changqing finished speaking and left in a hurry.

Chun Ning shook his head. Unexpectedly, even a foundation-building deacon like Lin Changqing didn't know about the sect's mission.

I don’t know why this sect is so secretive.

It's better to ask less yourself.

In the next few days, Chu Ning practiced peacefully.

While practicing the Nine Evolution Body Refining Techniques to keep the muscles steady, he is also consolidating his status at the seventh level of Qi Refining.

Of course, the art of refining the gods has not fallen behind either.

At the same time, he also stepped up efforts to cultivate the Jinyuan fruit in Lingtian.

After all, this spiritual plant is about to harvest.

At the same time, he was also thinking about whether to go to Fengxiafang.

In fact, Chu Ning wanted to go to Fengxiafang more than once or twice.

Mainly because there are very few people buying high-grade elixirs in Yanjifang, so Gu Xiaoqing only has Juyuan Dan, which is an elixir for improving cultivation.

With Chu Ning's current cultivation level in the late stage of Qi refining, the effect of taking Juyuan Dan will certainly be there, but it will not be as obvious as in the middle stage of Qi refining.

It is best to have primary and high-grade elixirs suitable for use in the later stages of Qi refining, so that the speed of cultivation can be faster.

At the same time, after feeling the effect of body tempering last time, Chu Ning also wanted to see if there were any body tempering products for sale.

After all, although the Tillandsia he planted has already grown Tillandsia fruits, they are still a month or two away from being mature for picking.

But before, Chu Ning had not been able to make the trip because he had to go to the cave every day to temper his body with the water of the Earth Spirit Spring.

Now that the Golden Dollar Fruit is almost ripe again, Chu Ning thought about it and decided that it would not be too late to wait until the Golden Dollar Fruit is ripe and picked.

During this period, another thing happened that surprised Chu Ning.

This little guy Ling Xiaobai quietly advanced to become a first-level advanced monster.

Especially what made Chu Ning feel a little incredible was that Ling Xiaobai was clearly just sleeping in the yard that day.

Chun Ning is practicing the Qingmu Changchun Kung Fu, but after Chu Ning finishes practicing.

However, he discovered that Ling Xiaobai had entered the first level of advanced level from the first level of intermediate level.

Chun Ning could only sigh inwardly at the fact that he could improve his cultivation even while sleeping.

It felt like Xiaobai’s cockroach was bigger than his own.
