Chapter 3 Spirituality

In fact, Chen Qingniu shouldn't have behaved like this, and he knew this.

He didn't know each other when he met in Pingshui, what reason did he have to take care of other people's affairs? What others wanted, it was someone else's choice, whether it was life or death, what did it have to do with him Chen Qingniu?

Those children brought back memories in his mind, and it was only those memories that really made him so indignant.

Intimidated by Chen Qingniu's strength, Qian San still told the truth after that, although this businessman was shrewd, he was not the kind of real mercenary, he did not add fuel and vinegar, even if it was his own thoughts, he told them truthfully.

Chen Qingniu sighed and said, "The night is still long, you can do it yourself." ”

He had already seen that the two men had suppressed their injuries and were able to move freely, so he turned around and was about to return to the previous road.

"Shaoxia, please stay. ”

Tuqiu and the two were already much better than Fang Cai at this time, and caught up with Chen Qingniu who was about to leave in a few steps, Tuqiu hugged his fists and said: "Fang Cai's matter, thank you Shaoxia for coming to the rescue, such a great grace, and I hope that Shaoxia will inform the honorable surname, and the plot couple will definitely report after that." ”

Chen Qingniu waved his hand, turned into a black shadow and quickly disappeared into the mountains and forests, only the couple looked at each other without saying a word, and they all showed wry smiles.

In fact, they already had some guesses in their hearts, Linbei County is not far from Anqing County, and it only takes half a day's drive to make Chen Qingniu a wolf.

Xie Qiuyu said: "It is rumored that this person is decisive and powerful at a young age, and even Yin Xuanwei dares to kill, since he has no intention of having a deep friendship with us, we still don't want to provoke it." ”

Tuqiu nodded and said: "Such a powerful demon beast is full of treasures, he was indifferent and left without looking, this person must have a deep background like the rumors in the rivers and lakes." ”

And is that really the case?

After a while, after some tidying up, the caravan returned to normal, and the dead were swallowed into the belly by the giant pangolin, and there was no need to bury the corpse, and the only corpse that everyone needed to dispose of was this giant pangolin.

But all demon beasts, no matter what kind of species, are a treasure mountain.

Just like this giant pangolin, if its flesh and blood are devoured, it can strengthen the martial body, its incomparably hard and extremely sharp scales can be used to create armor weapons, and even the slender tongue that was torn off by Chen Qingniu with a wolf spirit claw can also be quenched into a weapon, and this weapon is undoubtedly extremely suitable for Xie Qiuyu.

After Chen Qingniu jumped into the mountains and forests, he was not in a hurry to return, and when he saw that there was no one around, he only heard a soft shout: "Spirit of the Giant Armor!"

Suddenly, the phantom of a giant pangolin evolved out, completely surrounding Chen Qingniu, and the scales on its body flowed with white light, which was exactly the vitality of Chen Qingniu.

It's just that if those people were here, they would definitely find that the giant pangolin phantom that Chen Qingniu had condensed now was a little bigger than the one that appeared just now, and it was already like a small mound.

"Is that really the case?"

After receiving the supernatural powers, Chen Qingniu muttered to himself.

When he was unconscious, he had been in a coma for nearly a month, but only he knew that he was actually in the copper sheet space that month.

When he covered his hand with the copper plate on the top of the mountain, he received a lot of things, such as the means by which he could derive the phantom of the beast spirit, which was a kind of supernatural power called the Imperial Spirit, and for example, he could drive the beast soul to fight, which was called Soul Control, in fact, there were two other kinds of supernatural powers, one was the wandering spirit, and the other was the devouring spirit.

Chen Qingniu has used it a few times, but he is not used to it, he can give his self-consciousness to those summoned beast spirits, so that he can truly incarnate the beast spirit state, but this undoubtedly has many drawbacks, one is that he will lose control of his body, and the other is that even if Chen Qingniu possesses the beast spirit with self-awareness, all kinds of senses are still based on the original beast spirit, which makes him very unaccustomed.

As for the Soul Devouring Divine Power, Chen Qingniu did not dare to use it arbitrarily, even when facing Zhang Fu, he never used it, because from the use of the Divine Power alone, Chen Qingniu found that this Divine Power was quite vicious, and he had some resistance in his heart.

At this moment, Chen Qingniu was very happy, what he said was really like this, it was originally just a guess for him.

After learning that the copper space would expand as his cultivation improved, and the beast spirits inside would also become stronger, he had already guessed so, and now, it had been confirmed.

That is, with the improvement of his cultivation, will the beast soul spirit held by the copper piece become stronger and stronger, the answer is undoubtedly yes.

When he went to the hinterland of the Northern Hooligans with Jin Yue'er to find Ning Yuan Cao, he had fought with various fierce beasts for several days and killed countless people, including both beasts that had not turned into demons, and real demon beasts that had turned into demons, but at that time, the souls of those real demon beasts were not trapped in it by the copper tattoos, so he made a rash move today, and for himself, there was also a big surprise.

After a short time, Chen Qingniu returned to the place where the carriage stopped, everyone had woken up, and Jin Yue'er was the first to ask: "Ah Niu, what happened?"

Chen Qingniu told the story of the caravan behind him, and everyone was relieved, after all, it was normal for there to be occasional demon beasts on the official road near Beihu Mountain, although those people were also sleeping in the wilderness like them, but most of those people were ordinary people, unlike them, there were monks like Chen Qingniu, and there were innate martial artists like Lu Buwei, even if they encountered more powerful demon beasts, if they only protected themselves, there would not be much risk.

There was still some hour before the sky was white, but everyone had no intention of sleeping.

Lin Muzhi went to the side to practice his sword again, Lu Buwei sighed, and pulled Huang Fu and the others to the bonfire, but he didn't know what he was talking about.

Chen Qingniu looked at Jin Yue'er, and then remembered that he seemed to have forgotten something.

Starting from Feiyan Sword Village, until now, Jin Yue'er has been refining and refining qi for a little half a month, but she still hasn't sensed the existence of qi and blood in her body, let alone vitality, and the essence of the giant pangolin can undoubtedly help her.

Mentioning this, Chen Qingniu got up and was about to leave again, but was pulled by Jin Yue'er, who showed a wry smile and said: "Ah Niu, in fact, I may not be suitable for cultivation. ”

"Why?"

Jin Yue'er said truthfully: "Although I have swallowed and refined the remaining Ning Yuan Grass when I was in Zhuangzhong, I still haven't generated internal strength, but ...... I'll show you it. ”

After speaking, Jin Yue'er stood up, slowly walked to the side, and opened a certain distance from Chen Qingniu.

Immediately, Jin Yue'er gently stretched out a hand towards Chen Qingniu, neither pinching nor fluctuating any internal force, but the next moment, Chen Qingniu only felt that the temperature around him had plummeted, and in an instant, he already felt like falling into an ice cave, and his body was already covered with a layer of frost.

Seeing this, Jin Yue'er hurriedly stopped, ran to Chen Qingniu, ignored the cold on his body, hugged him, and said a little aggrieved: "Ah Niu, yes, I'm sorry, I don't know how to describe it, I just want to tell you, I ......"

Chen Qingniu moved his vitality slightly, the slightest chill suddenly disappeared, and even Jin Yue'er, who was holding him, felt a trace of warmth.

There are four kinds of cultivators in the world, one is a cultivator, who learns Taoism and magical powers in order to live forever, the second is martial arts, and the third is a spiritual cultivator, which collects the luck of the world's fragrant volcano river, and the fourth is spirituality, and is born with the ability to be different from ordinary people.

These are naturally all said by Chen Ergou and Chen Qingniu, the young Taoists who claimed to be veterans, although there are many things he doesn't understand, he has always kept them in his heart.

In fact, from the beginning of his cultivation, whether it was Liu Youcai or Liu Zhixian, Zhang Fuzhi and others, Chen Qingniu encountered mostly cultivators and martial cultivators, not to mention that even Chen Ergou said that the spiritual cultivation was extremely mysterious, even the Shinto monks, he had never encountered it.

But now, when Jin Yue'er changed the temperature around him, there was no vitality or internal force overflowing from his body, an ordinary person can do this, that can only mean one thing, after swallowing and refining those Ning Yuan grasses, Jin Yue'er seems to have awakened some kind of special ability.

This is obviously not a means of divine cultivation, and today's Jin Yue'er is very likely to be that mysterious spiritual cultivation.

However, this matter still needs to be confirmed again, although Chen Qingniu also knows very little, he can judge.

Chen Qingniu patted Jin Yue'er on the shoulder and said with a smile: "It's okay, if you try to show your talent to me again, you must do your best, perhaps, I can give an explanation for your current change." ”

Jin Yue'er nodded hesitantly and took a few steps back.

This time, she didn't even stretch out her hand, just looked at Chen Qingniu lightly, and Chen Qingniu already felt the real chill coming from her surroundings.

After experiencing Fang Cai's feelings, Chen Qingniu didn't dare to be careless, and he had already turned his vitality into Zhou Tian in his body, and immediately dispelled the chill.

Chen Qingniu looked at Jin Yue'er and said, "Yue'er, with all my strength, I have already run the vitality in my body to resist, so you don't need to worry about me." ”

In fact, since returning from the small ravine with Chen Qingniu, after Chen Qingniu passed on her Taishang Sense Qi Chapter and helped her refine Ning Yuan Grass, this ability had already appeared, but it was not used much at that time, at most it was to the point where a cup of hot tea could quickly become cold in her hands, and because she didn't care too much about the cultivation of the Taishang Sense Qi Chapter.

It's just that, as time goes by, she finds that this sudden change in herself is not only getting stronger and stronger, but even more controllable as she wants, and she is even more worried.

It was because of her worries that she never told Chen Qingniu that if it weren't for Chen Qingniu's plan to go back and get the demon beast essence meat for her today, she didn't want to say that in Jin Yue'er's opinion, such a change and such a method would already be a bit of an evil demon's behavior.

However, looking at Chen Qingniu's expression now, it doesn't seem to be some evil way, on the contrary, it seems to be a great ability, which reassures her.

Since Chen Qingniu said so, Jin Yue'er naturally didn't hesitate anymore, only to see her slowly stretch out her hands, and a trace of frost and mist faintly flashed in her eyes, not only Chen Qingniu covered by her ability, but even the temperature around her was falling again and again.

After exerting her ability, Jin Yue'er undoubtedly added a touch of style, and at this moment, she felt that she was no longer a woman in the rivers and lakes, as if she was more like the goddess of frost above the nine heavens.

It's a pity that Chen Qingniu, who is closest to her now, doesn't have the extra heart to watch this scene.

Cold, very cold, biting cold.

After Jin Yue'er exerted her abilities with all her might, even though Chen Qingniu was already ready to run the vitality in his body, he still only felt that he was already in the depths of the ice for ten thousand years, and as time passed, this feeling became stronger and stronger.

Time has not passed for long.

A trace of frost first appeared on Chen Qingniu's body, and then a trace of ice beads began to hang on him, and those ice beads were not vaporized by Chen Qingniu's vitality, but on the contrary, they began to extend and expand at a speed visible to the naked eye.

After a while, Jin Yue'er was obviously sitting on the ground exhausted due to the excessive use of her ability, but when she looked up, Chen Qingniu in front of her had already turned into an iceman.

She hurriedly called "Ah Niu", got up and ran towards Chen Qingniu.

This is something she couldn't have imagined.

Just now, under the full use of her ability, she has entered an extremely mysterious state, in that state, when he looks at this world, his eyes are snow-white, as if she can freeze everything she can see as long as she wants.

Jin Yue'er hugged Chen Qingniu, calling with a crying voice, and at the same time using her own temperature to melt the ice on Chen Qingniu's body.

On the side, Lu Buwei and others also walked over, Lu Buwei was okay, the physique of the innate martial artist was there after all, but the two old men, Huang Fu and Zhu Yanzhang, were not good, and they were trembling, even if it was a strong man with a wide body and a fat body.

Looking at Chen Qingniu, who turned into an iceman, Lu Buwei said, "Little sister, Qingniu, what is he?"

Jin Yue'er murmured in despair: "Brother, save Ah Niu, blame me, blame me......"

"Blame you?"

Lu Buwei is still unclear, but seeing that Jin Yue'er doesn't want to go into details, he doesn't mean to get to the bottom of it, at present, naturally saving Chen Qingniu is the most important thing, if a person is in a frozen state for a long time, his consciousness will soon dissipate, and if he loses consciousness, it is obvious that this person is not far from death.

A few people combined, although they didn't know what the two-inch-thick layer of ice that wrapped Chen Qingniu was, but ice was ice, and if you wanted to save Chen Qingniu, you naturally had to use fire.

Not long after, Chen Qingniu's surroundings were already full of wood and weeds, and Lu Buwei went down to the fire, and suddenly the fire was raging.

Jin Yue'er was still a little nervous, worried that if the ice melted, Chen Qingniu would be burned by these fires.

Lu Buwei comforted her and said: "Little sister, don't worry, Qingniu is a cultivator of the Qi Induction Realm, in fact, it is difficult for ordinary ice and fire to hurt him, and the layer of cold ice that wraps him is obviously very special, what we have to worry about now is not whether the fire can hurt him, but whether these ordinary fires are useful to that layer of ice." ”

In fact, although Lu Buwei and Chen Qingniu can only be regarded as half-cultivators, in this matter, his judgment is extremely accurate.

Whether it is a cultivator or a martial cultivator, there is a certain ability to resist the cold, heat, cold and heat, although the cultivator emphasizes the qi and light the body, and the martial cultivator emphasizes the body and light the internal force, but in fact, the same end, whether it is a strong vitality or a strong physique, for some external factors, there is instinctive inhibition.

As he guessed, Chen Qingniu would be frozen, and it was obvious that the problem was still on that layer of ice.

Obviously, even Jin Yue'er didn't know how powerful her abilities were.

Ice!

A simple word, an ability that is not complicated, but with the extreme, even this piece of heaven and earth can be frozen, not to mention Chen Qingniu is such a mere person?

The layer of cold ice that wrapped Chen Qingniu was called Hundred Years of Cold Ice, which was the freezing extreme that Jin Yue'er, who was already a first-order spiritual cultivator, could now cause, and it was also the dream of many low-level cultivators to build a cold magic weapon.

Of course, everyone present didn't know about this, but under the continuous raging fire, even the hundred-year-old ice had begun to gradually begin to lose, and the ice on Chen Qingniu's body began to melt drop by drop, until a long time had passed, and after he had been able to operate his vitality again, he jumped up from the fire and came to everyone.

The previous situation, the fire behind, don't think about it, Chen Qingniu already knows what happened.

Chen Qingniu hugged his fists at everyone and said, "Thank you!"

"Qingniu, you ...... just now," Lu Buwei asked.

"Fangcai?"

Chen Qingniu shook his head and said with a wry smile: "Last time I killed Zhang Fuzhi, I found a spell from his storage bag, I wanted to cultivate it, but how could I ...... it?"

"Spells?"

Lu Buwei seemed to believe it a little, he clearly remembered Jin Yue'er's self-blame appearance, and he also heard the three words "blame me" that Jin Yue'er had been chanting there all the time, why is it that now, it has become Chen Qingniu's own cultivation of spells that has gone wrong? Could it be that Chen Qingniu's cultivation of spells reached a critical moment, and he was disturbed by Jin Yue'er rashly?

On the side, Lin Muzhi suddenly said to Lu Buwei: "Brother Lu, go, accompany me to practice swords." ”

With such a big fire rushing to the sky here, Lin Muzhi, who was originally practicing swords, had already been shocked, and after some inquiry, he also knew what was going on.

However, at this moment, he could see that both Chen Qingniu and Jin Yue'er had some consciousness of wanting to speak and stopping, not to mention, from Chen Qingniu's wry smile, he could see that it was not Chen Qingniu's true expression.

In fact, Lu Buwei can also see a little bit at ordinary times, but he is concerned, and because Jin Yue'er is blaming himself, he ignores these.

It seems that Lin Muzhi is not one of the people who noticed this, and Huang Fu and others, who have a deep experience in the rivers and lakes, have already heard it from Jin Yue'er's words, so they don't even have the meaning to ask, after seeing Lin Muzhi pulling Lu Buwei away, the three of them also talked and laughed and chatted about the rivers and lakes and returned to the carriage.

Jin Yue'er wanted to speak, but Chen Qingniu waved his hand to signal that he didn't need to worry, but turned around and extinguished the fire with a huge vitality, and then said solemnly: "Yue'er, the matter of Fang Cai has nothing to do with you, I am too persistent, in fact, when I can't bear it, I could have reminded you, but I didn't do that, I just want to know how strong your ability is." ”

"Now it seems that your ability is indeed terrifying, at least, for a cultivator like me who refines the Three Realms of Qi Refinement, your ability is very targeted, just now, the vitality in my body has also been frozen. ”

"And this is the reason why I was frozen by that layer of ice, and it is also the reason why I deliberately concealed it. Of course, you don't have to be so surprised, let alone feel that you are an outlier, I hide it, I just don't want this matter to spread, otherwise when you go to a place like Fucheng, there will be many people who are curious about you, and if you are curious, you will try to get close to you, this is my selfishness. ”

Hearing this, Jin Yue'er no longer had the emotions she had before, and she was already a little happy.

"Actually, do you know that there are four types of cultivators in this world, not the two types that ordinary people in the rivers and lakes do?"

"How can it be four categories?"

Jin Yue'er's eyes widened, and she was very puzzled, as if she had heard something big.

Chen Qingniu said with a smile: "Actually, in addition to the cultivators and martial cultivators who are known to everyone in the rivers and lakes, there are two categories, one of which may have you also heard of, that is, all the mountains and rivers in this world are magical, such as the flow of the god land of Hepo Mountain, in fact, they are not born, they are also a type of cultivators, called Shinto monks." ”

"But you are the most mysterious fourth category, spiritual, born with the favor of the Heavenly Dao, with earth-shattering abilities, and people like you, even if you don't practice, your body will gradually increase your ability after gradually absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, the first three kinds of cultivators are all divided into six realms, and spiritual monks like you are divided into six levels. ”

"And what about me?"

Hearing Chen Qingniu say this, Jin Yue'er seemed very excited, her regret has always been that she has many opportunities to fight side by side with Chen Qingniu because of her lack of strength, if she is really a spiritual cultivator in Chen Qingniu's mouth, then ......

Chen Qingniu said uncertainly: "It should be a first-order spiritual cultivation, and I don't know how to judge these." However, if you do fight against someone, no one else will stand there waiting for you to use your abilities to attack. Secondly, if you just shot before you froze me, it is not that there is no way to crack it, although this ability is strong, it is not without flaws, let's say two of them, one is distance, and the other is naturally you......"

Seeing the trace of despondency on Jin Yue'er's face, Chen Qingniu patted the latter's shoulder and comforted: "It's already very strong, if you are surprised, a realm cultivator, although I have never seen a Shinto cultivator, whether it is a monk or a martial cultivator on the rivers and lakes, I don't know who can resist it." ”

Jin Yue'er smiled again.
