Chapter 155 154, Retreat and Cultivation, Xiaoya Promotion!

A good night's sleep.

After dawn, Shen Lang packed his bags and set off again, but he did not walk on the official road, still walking in the dark and dense forest.

Although the South China Sea faction is gone, the big eagle is still there.

Shen Lang was a little worried, if he was targeted by that big eagle again, he couldn't say it, there would be a real big master coming on the eagle.

After all, Xue Mingyue is the lover of the emperor's old son, and God knows if the emperor will remember the old love and send a master to avenge her.

If it's a four-grade ......

Don't look at Shen Lang last night, he wiped out three waves of forces in one go, and killed so many sixth- and fifth-grade masters like chopping melons and vegetables, but fourth-rank martial artists are not the same concept as sixth-grade and fifth-grade martial artists at all.

Even if it is just a "pseudo-four products" like Jin Yiming, there is a huge threat before the true qi is exhausted.

Not to mention the true four products that condense the "True Qi Seed" with their ability.

Shen Lang still remembers that Zhu Yunfei, the great elder of the South China Sea Sect, easily subdued Chen Yuniang with a flick of his fingers.

Like last night's scene of a hundred people besieging and killing, if it was a four-rank martial artist of Zhu Yunfei's level, there was no need to make any arrangements at all, and his backhand could be easily suppressed.

For the sake of safety, Shen Lang decided to rush through the forest and cover his body with the dense shade of the trees—no matter how keen the giant eagle's eyes were, they couldn't see through, right?

Anyway, he has space to carry around, sufficient supplies, and a little demon to help explore the road and open the way, but it is a little troublesome to rush in the mountains, but life and safety are guaranteed.

In this way, he walked over the mountains and mountains for two days, and in the evening of this day, Xiao Zhao, who was exploring the road in front, sent a message to Shen Lang's heart, saying that there was a valley with a good environment ahead, and he could camp here for one night.

Shen Lang followed Xiao Zhao's guidance and walked towards the valley, and soon came to the edge of a cliff.

Standing on the edge of the cliff and looking down, you can see the valley below, and the environment is really beautiful.

This valley is surrounded by mountains on all sides, and the bottom of the valley is full of green grass and flowers.

There is also a small waterfall, which falls from the cliff more than 20 zhang high on the opposite side, and rushes out of a deep pool below.

The stream that flows out of the pool crosses the valley and submerges into a dense bamboo forest at the eastern end of the valley.

Standing on the edge of the cliff, looking at the waterfall opposite, and then looking at the Bitan, Qingxi, mountain flowers, and bamboo forests, Shen Lang smiled at the little bones around him:

"Xiao Zhao really found a good place! I decided that I wanted to not only camp here, but also retreat here for a while. Anyway, Miss Jin didn't limit the time for me to arrive in Jingshi, but told me to walk slowly on the road and see more, so I decided to at least advance to the sixth rank here, cultivate my internal strength, and then consider leaving! ”

Naturally, the small bones will not have any opinion on this.

Xiao Zhao, Xiao Yu, and Xiao Ya also agreed.

For the little demons, although the human city is interesting, the vast world and natural wilderness are more in line with their nature.

At that moment, Shen Lang jumped down from the edge of the cliff, and after falling two or three zhang, he showed the Xuanbing sword with his backhand, and stabbed a sword on the cliff wall, slowing down the falling momentum, and then pulled out the sword, let the body fall freely, and after falling two or three zhang, he concocted a sword to pierce the cliff wall in the same way.

If this is the case again and again, Shen Lang easily fell to the bottom and was down-to-earth.

Xiao Gu also followed his example, constantly stabbing the cliff wall with a hundred forged black iron swords, and landed easily.

After walking around the valley for a while, Shen Lang put the small fish into the deep pool to play in the water, and Xiao Zhao, who arrived first, fluttered butterflies among the flowers, leaving only Xiao Ya to devour the emperor's slurry in the space to cultivate, and walked into the bamboo forest with his small bones, cut down the big bamboo, and prepared to build a small bamboo house.

Of course, Shen Lang can't do carpentry work, let alone build a house.

But it's just a shack that can barely shelter from the wind and rain and live for a while, with all kinds of tools at hand, a little imagination, and you can almost get it.

When it got dark, a barely visible bamboo hut was erected in the middle of the forest.

After building a stove by the stream, taking out the rich ingredients from the space, making a dinner, and having a full meal with the little demons, Shen Lang began to think about what kind of achievements should be achieved in this retreat.

First of all, Xiaoya must be promoted to the second realm.

Secondly, martial arts have to be promoted to the sixth rank and cultivate internal strength. In terms of Dao techniques, you have to cultivate the seven-grade spell of "Water Mirror Shadow Appreciation Technique", and you must also cultivate all four nine-grade Dao techniques to a level that can be "instantaneous" without damage.

In other words, if the cultivation is not enough, forcibly issuing an instantaneous spell will consume three times the spiritual power of normal spell casting, and it will also cause a certain shock impact on the sea of knowledge, resulting in a great increase in the probability of failing to cast the spell and devouring one's body in the future.

But if the cultivation is sufficient, it is not impossible to have a non-destructive instantaneous spell.

A monk in the seventh-rank realm can theoretically instantaneously unleash spells of the ninth rank and below without damage. Sixth-grade monks can instantly fire eight-rank and below spells. And so on, when you reach the second rank, you can instantly fire all spells of the fourth rank and below.

As for the first product......

Legend has it that the great real person of the first product is already at the level of some kind of "qualitative change", and the original god has begun to "transform into a mortal", and any spell below the first product can be thought of immediately. Even a one-grade spell can be instantaneous without damage through various special methods.

Shen Lang's current spiritual strength is equivalent to that of a seventh-grade Dao cultivator, and he already has the qualifications to undamaged instantaneous nine-rank spells.

Now you only need to keep practicing and constantly improve the rune strength of each nine-rank spell, and you can achieve instant damage without damage.

In the end, Shen Lang also decided to practice his bow skills in order to give full play to the power of the four-grade treasure bow "Shocking Bow".

It is also necessary to develop the second killing method of "White Rainbow through the Sun", which is a sword stab.

The above is the minimum goal of Shen Lang's retreat.

"Aim to get it all done in a month!"

To complete so many projects in one month, it is impossible for idle warriors and monks to do it.

Not to mention anything else, under normal circumstances, a single seven-rank Dao technique, with the average level of those heavenly pride in the Imperial Capital Dao Academy, would not be able to be cultivated within a month.

Not to mention, you have to cultivate from the seventh-grade Xiaocheng's "refining viscera" to the sixth-grade internal force realm.

But Shen Lang was confident about this.

It's just a seven-grade Dao technique, and with his anti-heaven understanding, it only takes seven days to cultivate at most.

As for martial arts cultivation, this problem is not a big deal.

When Xiao Ya advances to the second realm, his "vitality enhancement" will be raised to the second level, and the time for "refining the viscera" every day can be extended a lot.

Coupled with the viscera refining elixir given by Mu Qingxue, Shen Lang was sure that he would refine the viscera in one month and cultivate his internal strength.

After making a retreat plan, Shen Lang began to cultivate that night.

The next few days.

Shen Lang practiced diligently from morning to night every day, and martial arts, archery, and Taoism went hand in hand.

Xiao Gu also meditates for half a day every day and practices swords for half a day, and his cultivation strength is not inferior to Shen Lang. The little fish also spit out inspiration in the deep pool all day long, stirring the current, and even trying to resist the impact of the waterfall and swim against the current to exercise their physique.

Seeing that Xiaoyu was using the waterfall to cultivate, Shen Lang also remembered this stubble, and also took a treasure bow, tied up a lunge under the waterfall, washed against the waterfall, opened the bow and spit out in various postures, and tempered the internal organs, muscles and bones.

At first, he was naturally unstable, even if his skin was strengthened to the second order, his water nature was comparable to that of a dolphin, he could breathe underwater, and he had a body of steel and iron, but he couldn't withstand the powerful impact of the waterfall with a drop of more than 20 zhang.

The main thing is that the feet are too slippery and it is difficult to stand on your feet.

So at the beginning, he was washed down again and again and fell into the pool, but he was not discouraged and failed again and again.

This is repeated many times, and finally on the third day, you can get a foothold under the waterfall.

At this time, the small fish can already go against the almost completely vertical waterfall, four or five feet upstream.

Shen Lang, Xiao Gu, and Xiao Yu all practiced so hard, and Xiao Zhao was also deeply touched, and he even worked hard to cultivate.

It also spends half a day every day spitting out inspiration, half a day running around the mountains and forests, jumping among the treetops, parkour on the cliffs, pounceing on birds and small beasts, fighting with wild boars and leopards, exercising skills, and hunting meat by the way.

Although Shen Lang strictly forbade Xiao Zhao to hurt birds and young beasts, after a few days, the birds and beasts around the valley were still tossed by it so much that they couldn't hear the birds' calls.

Time passed like this.

Before he knew it, Shen Lang had been in the valley for eight days.

The "Water Mirror Technique" was successfully completed on the sixth day.

Shen Lang can also be like Ge Qingyun, through the pre-laid spell mark, use the "water mirror" to remotely monitor the area where the spell mark is located, and can also consume spiritual power to remotely transmit sound with the target reflected in the mirror.

This ability is a little chicken for Shen Lang, who has a little demon as a scout and can communicate with the little demon ignoring the obstacle psychic communication. But what Shen Lang really likes is the upgraded ability of the "Water Mirror Shadow Appreciation Technique".

When Shen Lang's Dao technique is cultivated to the sixth grade, you can use this technique to obtain the ability of "Mirror Flower Water Moon, Splitting Light and Turning Shadows", and you can turn into a "Water Moon Phantom Body", which confuses people's ears and eyes. Cultivating to the fifth grade, there will be the ability of "true illusion at will, shape shifting", and the positions of the real body and the phantom body can be exchanged with each other in an instant within a hundred zhang, and you can switch back again after it is finished.

Whether it is a confusing phantom body, or the ability to switch back and forth with the phantom body within a hundred zhang, it is extremely useful in actual combat, and it can save lives at critical moments.

After eight days of retreat, Shen Lang's martial arts and bow skills have also made great progress.

But what makes him most happy is that the rabbit demon Xiaoya has finally advanced to the second realm!

At the beginning, after Xiao Gu enjoyed the emperor's slurry exclusively, it only took less than seven days to advance to the second realm.

And although Xiao Ya is well-behaved and obedient, and her cultivation is much faster than Xiao Zhaoqin, she was originally just an ordinary little white rabbit after all, and her foundation is far inferior to the small bones of the natural "jade bone". It took ten days to enjoy the emperor's liquid pulp exclusively before he advanced to the second realm.

As an auxiliary demon, even if the little rabbit advances to the second realm, its combat power cannot be compared with Xiao Zhao, Xiao Yu, and Xiao Gu.

The main reason is that it doesn't have the spells of fighting and killing, and the two spells of "Dead Wood Spring" and "Little Returning to the Sky" can only be used for planting and healing so far.

However, since the realm has been improved, the power of these two spells has naturally increased greatly.

After Xiaoya was promoted, he invited Shen Lang to watch it perform, and a "dead wood in spring" went down, and a cluster of "ichthyosaurus" seedlings, which were originally less than half a foot high, suddenly branched out at a speed visible to the naked eye, and in a blink of an eye, they all grew a foot taller.

The young saplings that grow to a foot and a half high, and the newly extracted young leaves exude an attractive fragrance, which makes Shen Lang, Xiao Zhao, and Xiao Yu feel refreshed and energetic just by smelling it.

"Lord Silver, Ichthyosaurus can come in handy now! When practicing, whether it is practicing martial arts or cultivating Taoism, picking a young leaf and holding it in your mouth will have a miraculous effect! ”

The little rabbit squatted on Shen Lang's shoulder and said in a milky voice.

There is no doubt that the little rabbit who has advanced to the second realm can also speak.

Shen Lang tried to pinch off a young leaf and put it in his mouth.

The young leaves melted in his mouth, instantly melting into a stream of cool juice, falling from his throat into his stomach, and then turning into countless wisps of cool air, which instantly spread to his internal organs and limbs, making him feel cool and comfortable for a while.

Shen Lang hurriedly picked up the Shocking Bow, and slowly opened and released the bow in various postures, breathing and exhaling.

After only cultivating for about a quarter of an hour, I felt that the effect of cultivation was as good as half an hour of ordinary cultivation.

With such a miraculous effect, Shen Lang couldn't help but sigh, this ichthyosaurus wood is really magical, no wonder it was cut down and extinct in the war more than a hundred years ago.

During the war, in order to survive and grow and dominate the world, all forces had to go all out to cultivate warriors and monks, and do everything possible to loot all kinds of cultivation resources.

Even if a cultivation sect that does not participate in the struggle for hegemony, in order to protect itself, it has to do its best to scavenge resources and cultivate strong people, and it is impossible to think more about future generations.

Since the effect of Ichthyosaurus's auxiliary cultivation is so good, it will naturally bear the brunt.

Once a certain force discovers a fish and dragon tree, it will definitely be uprooted and quickly put into the treasury, and will never leave any residue for other forces.

The key is that the requirements for the growth environment of ichthyosaurus are also extremely strict, and it will only grow and survive in a specific environment, and it is not too difficult for high-grade warriors and monks to search, which makes it difficult to have any fishy dragon plants remaining in the mountains.

Today, it is said that only two first-class real people still have fish and dragon wood materials in their hands.

Of course, now there is more Shen Lang.

And the ichthyosaurus wood in his hand is still a sustainable resource that can be produced in a steady stream.

"Xiaoya, how many young leaves can these ichthyosaur seedlings produce every day?"

"That's not a good calculation, right now, each seedling can only produce three young leaves that can assist in cultivation every day. However, I can use the dead wood several times a day to promote the growth of saplings, and the young leaves will only be produced every day! ”

Shen Lang laughed:

"That's a good thing! In the future, everyone can eat young leaves to assist in cultivation. ”

Xiao Zhao: "Although it smells good...... But Meow eats meat, will eating grass cause indigestion? ”

Shen Lang said with a smile: "Don't worry, this is a spiritual thing, not an ordinary grass and tree, it melts in your mouth, you don't even have to chew it, and it will never make you indigestion." ”

The small bones also heard their hearts:

[I can't, eat, this leaf, I, can I eat?] 】

Shen Lang was stunned for a moment, and said with some uncertainty:

"Uh, I guess that's okay, right? Why don't you pick a leaf and try it? ”

So the little bone plucked a young leaf and threw it into its mouth, and the young leaf immediately fell from its empty jaw.

Before it could be depressed, the young leaves fell to its ribs, then melted quickly, melted into its ribs, and then turned into wisps of verdant gossamer that spread all over its bones.

[Ah, digested! 】

Xiao Zhao's eyes widened:

"Meow...... You can even eat skeletons! This ichthyosaurus is really not ordinary! ”

Quickly flew over and bit off a young leaf.

"And me, Shen Lang also helped me pick a leaf!"

The little fish was squatting in the tank.

Of course, Shen Lang would not forget it, and also picked a young leaf for it and fed it.

Xiao Ya used that thumb-sized fragment of ichthyosaurus wood to raise five small saplings, and now she can produce fifteen young leaves that can assist in cultivation in a day, which is enough for Shen Lang and the little demons to consume every day.

And as it continues to cultivate ichthyosaurs, it will only produce more and more young leaves every day.

At that time, not only can it be used for its own use, but it may also be able to sell it to make money - of course, before it is strong enough to protect itself, it is better not to expose such extinct precious spiritual objects easily.
