Chapter 54: Chapter 54: Ping’er

Translator: 549690339

The crisp female voice rang in He Song’s ear.

Upon hearing the words, He Song immediately turned his head to look in the direction where the voice was coming from.

Suddenly, a familiar figure appeared in front of him.

With a flash of spiritual light in his eyes, He Song immediately clasped his hands together.

“It turns out to be Miss Ping’er. Indeed, it has been three years since we last met. I also congratulate Miss Ping’er for her great progress in cultivation, and her Foundation Establishment is within reach.”

The person in front of him was Ping’er, who had welcomed him to the Spirit Skill Pavilion during his first, second and even now, the third visit.

At this moment, He Song’s cultivation had already progressed from the first-tier Qi Refining at the time of his first visit, to the current fourth-tier of Qi Refining.

As for Ping’er’s cultivation, it had also progressed from unknown during his first visit, not paying attention during his second visit, to Qi-refining fourth-tier during his third visit.

When he first visited, He Song hadn’t yet learned the Spirit Vision Skill, so he naturally didn’t know Ping’er’s cultivation.

During the second visit, although He Song had learned the Spirit Vision Skill, he didn’t use it on Ping’er, so he naturally didn’t know her cultivation either.

On the third visit, which was this time, it was because Ping’er took the initiative to congratulate him on his great progress in cultivation that he used the Spirit Vision Skill and looked at her.

Only then did he find out that Ping’er’s cultivation was also at the fourth-tier of Qi Refining.

“I don’t know what my friend wants to order in this visit?” With a smile, Ping’er led He Song to a nearby desk to sit down and asked.

Her gaze was fixed on He Song without blinking, and there was a hint of unnoticeable surprise in her eyes.

Three years had passed.

She had originally thought that He Song, who once made her want to make friends with him, had died in the catastrophe three years ago.

She had even lamented about it for a while.

After all, He Song at that time was just a little cultivator at the third-tier of Qi Refining. It was not easy for him to survive in such a catastrophe.

Even she had survived only because of the help from a benefactor.

Otherwise, she might have died in that catastrophe three years ago as well.

The catastrophe was so terrifying, and its target was the cultivators who lived on the periphery of the Immortal Pavilion with more than the second-tier of Qi Refining and without self-preservation power.

To survive, one had to either leave in advance or be helped by a benefactor.

How did He Song manage to survive?

“Please show me some of the Qi Refining stage skills, Miss Ping’er. I need to make some selections.” Not paying attention to the surprise in Pinger’s eyes, He Song quickly stated his request.

This visit to the Spirit Skill Pavilion was for He Song to learn new skills.

His Spirit-Gathering Array had been set up.

As for the Five Phases Array and Illusion Array, these two Array Skills weren’t something that could be comprehended in a short period.

Naturally, if he wanted to improve his own strength, there were only two ways left: buying spirit amulets and learning skills.

As for buying spirit amulets, it was still too strenuous for He Song’s current financial situation.

Therefore, He Song could only come to the Spirit Skill Pavilion to learn Qi Refining stage skills to enhance his own strength.

“Alright, Mr. He, please wait a moment.”

Leaving a word, although there was some curiosity in Ping’er’s eyes, she still dutifully got up and left.

As Ping’er left,

another pretty-looking young girl came over and prepared a pot of hot tea for He Song.

Seeing this situation, He Song suddenly realized that the clothes on Ping’er were different from the previous two times he visited.

After asking the girl who had come later, He Song found out that Pinger had become one of the Stewards of the Spirit Skill Pavilion after she had broken through to the Qi-refining mid stage and no longer needed to play the role of a hostess for visiting cultivators like she previously did.

All she needed to do was to manage the people below and let them serve the guests.

Of course, if she felt like it, she could still serve guests personally.

Just like how she treated He Song. After making inquiries, the girl who came later left respectfully.

He Song was slightly stunned but suddenly realized that perhaps his own cultivation, which had reached the Qi-refining mid stage, had already become a “senior” who needed to be treated with respect in front of these Qi Refining Early Stage cultivators.

Or perhaps, it was because of his acquaintance with Pinger that this girl was so respectful to him.

Picking up the teacup and taking a sip,

the scene of his first meeting with Ping’er at the Spirit Skill Pavilion flashed through He Song’s mind.

At that time, he was only at the first-tier of Qi Refining, and all the cultivators in the Spirit Skill Pavilion had a strong spiritual pressure on them.

Everyone seemed like a senior to him.

Now it’s different.

With just a glance, he could see that most of the surrounding cultivators were at the Qi Refining Early Stage, and there were very few at the Qi-refining mid stage.

At this point, his current Qi-refining mid stage cultivation actually stood out as relatively high in the Spirit Skill Pavilion.

“Time flies by, and the scenery before me has changed.”

With a sigh in his heart, He Song shook his head and stopped thinking about those things.

Soon, the familiar figure returned again.

Placing the tray in front of He Song, Ping’er quickly noticed the teapot on the table.

Her gaze swept over the girls in the Spirit Skill Pavilion, and a hint of understanding flashed in her eyes, but she didn’t care.

“Mr. He, let me introduce these skills to you first.”

Picking up a jade slip from the tray, Pinger’s voice rang out gently.

“This is the Fireball Skill, one of the basic skills. It can form a powerful fireball to attack enemies and is worth ten spirit stones.”

“This is the Light Body Skill, one of the basic skills. It can enhance walking speed and is essential for traveling and escaping. It is worth ten spirit stones.”

“This is the Object Controlling Skills, a mid-grade skill. It allows you to project your spirit power and control objects around you, which can be very useful. It is worth fifty spirit stones.”

“This is the Mountain Light Body Skill, a mid-grade skill. It has a faster speed than the Light Body Skill and is essential for long-distance travel and escaping.

It is worth fifty spirit stones.”

“This is the Tracking Skill, a high-quality skill. After casting, it can leave a tracking mark on the enemy’s body, which is hard to detect and is worth one hundred spirit stones.”

“This is the Earth Tunneling Skill, a high-quality skill. After casting, it can allow you to tunnel into the ground and move at extremely fast speeds underground. However, be aware that it can easily be countered by the Earthshaking Skill and is worth one hundred spirit stones.”

“This is the Earthshaking Skill, a high-quality skill. After casting, it can shake the heavens and the earth, dealing great damage to enemies underground. It is worth one hundred spirit stones.”

“This is the Mountain Pressing Sword Technique, a high-quality attack skill. By using the Obiect Controlling Skills to mani Dulate flvinc swords. it has great power and is worth two hundred spirit stones.”

“This is… ‘

As Ping’er introduced one jade slip after another, He Song’s eyes flickered.

He wanted all of these!

However, after sensing the remaining thirty-five spirit stones in his storage bag, He Song’s heart sank.

These thirty-five spirit stones were taken from Chen Zhou’s storage bag.

The dozen or so spirit stones He Song originally had, plus the more than fifty he had taken from Chen Zhou’s storage bag, had all been used to engrave array patterns.

Engraving array patterns had a high chance of destroying spirit stones.

The rest of the spirit stones had all been spent on this.

At this moment, He Song had only thirty-five spirit stones left in his possession..
