Chapter 30: The Ghost Lingers
Now that Xia Wan, Xia Yuanchao, and Xia Feng are all leaving, Chen Du walked out of the woods and walked to the courtyard door of Xia Wan's house step by step.
The door is locked, and with Chen Du's current strength, he can pinch the lock on the door to pieces, but it is not kind to do so, and with mana, he cannot be capricious, and he cannot damage the stitches and threads of the people.
So he found a secluded position, steadily mobilized the mana in his body through the forty-eight character mantra of the "Golden Light Mantra", and then jumped over, easily climbing over the courtyard wall to the inside.
Chen Du didn't take a closer look when he came last time, but this time he noticed that their yard was very tidy, with some flowers and plants planted against the wall, and a big pear tree next to it, which is estimated to have forty or fifty years recorded on the annual rings, and there are stone tables and chairs under the pear tree, so you can sit down and rest.
Chen Du looked at it and sat cross-legged in the shade of the pear tree, intending to start cultivating here.
Three spells passed to him by Xiao Yue appeared in his mind, namely "Fog Escape Technique", "Ascending Sky Technique", and "Wind Flame Technique", and Chen Du chose to practice "Fog Escape Technique" first.
According to the spell information passed to him by Xiao Yue, Chen Du began to make a special palm print of the "Fog Escape Technique".
In fact, spells usually have formulas, but the formulas only provide a window for practitioners to understand the essence of spells, and if you really want to cultivate into a spell, you must also master its unique palm print, and by mastering a complete set of spell palm prints, you can condense the energy of this spell in your body.
Chen Du followed the spell palm print passed to him by Xiao Yue, put his palms together, and then suddenly flipped over, his hands danced up and down, and a hidden power appeared in his body with the palm print flipping, but because the palm print he made at the beginning was a little jerky, those hidden forces could not be condensed together, and they quickly collapsed.
Chen Du did not lose heart, patiently practiced more, and slowly became proficient in the palm prints of the "Fog Escape Technique", and by the eighth time, he put his palms together and began to make a complete set of palm prints again.
There was a whirring wind sound from the palm prints, and the trajectory of the palm prints also carried a strange feeling, and the wonderful energy that was born with the palm prints appeared in his body, and they were connected little by little, gradually becoming a whole.
Chen Du found that these wonderful energies had become a part of his body, and they did not disappear when he spread out his palm prints, so he closed his eyes and moved his heart at will, and spit out a soft word from his mouth: "Fog escape!" ”
Suddenly, he felt as if his body had turned into countless fine particles, and as soon as he opened his eyes, he saw that the whole person suddenly turned into a black mist, and the wisps drilled into the ground.
Chen Du is still a novice's performance, and after being proficient, he should be able to turn into black gas and escape into the ground in an instant, but since he has mastered the "Fog Escape Technique", he will naturally be able to slowly become proficient later, so there is no need to worry.
Chen Du swam underground in the form of a black mist, and his speed was very fast, appearing outside the courtyard in less than a second. He could always see where he was and see what was going on on the ground.
He only moved outside the courtyard, and soon returned to the pear tree in the courtyard, and the black qi gushed out of the ground, condensing his entity.
Without stopping, Chen Du continued to practice the second spell, choosing the "Ascending Technique", which is a spell that can rely on its own mana to fly in the air, if the strength is too weak, it will not be able to fly in the air if it is practiced.
With the experience of cultivating the "Golden Light Mantra" and "Fog Escape Technique", Chen Du found it much easier to practice the "Ascending Technique" again, and the palm print of the "Ascending Technique" was completely proficient after only practicing it for the fifth time, and condensed a power in his body that made him feel like a fluttering immortal.
Under the influence of this power, Chen Du, who was sitting cross-legged, staggered and floated, although he was still not very skilled, but he succeeded in cultivating.
Chen Du, who is still in his five-year form, may not be able to fly out of the Xuancheng Territory if he uses the "Ascending Technique", after all, using spells to fly consumes strength, and he just briefly tried the experience of ascending and descending in the courtyard.
He continued to practice the third spell "Wind Flame Technique", this progress seemed to be a bit greedy and rash, but Chen Du's identity is sensitive, time is pressing, and once he encounters danger, these three spells can be used, so he must master it as soon as possible.
This time it was easier to cultivate the "Wind Flame Jue", Chen Du almost didn't spend much energy to succeed in cultivating, but there was a difference, this time the cultivation time was longer, mainly after making the palm print, the process of condensing the power of the spell in the body was a bit long, which may be related to the fact that this is an offensive spell.
After Chen Du finished making the palm print, he formed a strange handprint and put it in his lower abdomen, closed his eyes and waited quietly, and the magic power of the "Wind and Flame Jue" in his body condensed little by little.
Unconsciously, Chen Du suddenly noticed that something was wrong, there was a subtle force spreading in his body, it felt like a small insect crawling in his body, and the number of insects was increasing little by little.
Chen Du actually felt this kind of abnormal movement at the beginning, and thought that it was a companion phenomenon of the power of the spell in the condensation process, and he didn't pay much attention to it, but now he suddenly opened his eyes, gasping for breath, cold sweat broke out on his face, and a terrifying feeling of the forest made him almost interrupt the cultivation process.
Fortunately, his cultivation had reached the last moment, and within a few seconds after he opened his eyes, the power of the spell of "Wind Flame Jue" was successfully condensed, and this offensive spell was operating in his body.
"Who's doing the hell in my body!" Chen Du looked inwardly at his body, and asked angrily in his heart, at this moment he figured out that the feeling of the little insect crawling was someone who was taking advantage of his addiction to cultivation and eroding his soul little by little, once the erosion was successful, he would lose his self-consciousness, which was equivalent to being taken away.
Chen Du couldn't help but think of the infant adult, and asked angrily in his heart: "Infant old monster, are you not dead yet, stop me, and then obediently get out of my body, otherwise I will be unkind to you!" ”
The movement that eroded the soul in his body did not stop, and after a while, a treacherous laughter finally sounded from his body: "Hey, hey, Chen Du, you should thank me, if I hadn't made a move last night, you would have been blown up by the mana I deposited, where is there still a chance to be angry now." ”
It turned out that he really took action to resolve Chen Du's crisis last night, but Chen Du didn't want to thank him at all, but wanted to scold him, so he really scolded: "You old bastard, I thank you uncle!" If it weren't for you, the turtle grandson, I would still be a big living person now, and if I died last night, you wouldn't have a chance to erode my soul right now! ”
"Yo Yo Yo, the anger is quite big, how can you scold the old man, you young people should take care of the old man more." Lord Ying continued to make a treacherous and treacherous voice, and his tone was very proud, because he thought that Chen Du could not do anything to him except for scolding a few words.
