Daqian, September 1278.

Star Luo Island.

It has been almost five months since Su Ming and Gong Xiaocai moved to this small island, and according to the Lu brothers, a few days will be the day when the Yaoyuan Daoist Academy will come to Xingluo Island to recruit people.

To the east of Xingluo Island, caves are opened up among the mountains.

These caves are rented to monks who come to settle on Xingluo Island, so the flow of people here is very large and very mixed.

The cave house rented by Su Ming and Gong Xiaocai is a first-class cave mansion, and it is the best cave mansion on Xingluo Island.

This kind of A-level cave house is only rented for one year, and it costs 50 spirit stones, which is amazingly expensive.

You must know that Su Ming's annual rent for T-shaped No. 19 shop in Qingshuifang City is only 10 spirit stones, and compared with the two, the cave mansion on Xingluo Island is 5 times more expensive.

But Xingluo Island is the only island that Yaojiang City must pass through to Tianshu Island, and it is better to settle here than to settle directly on Tianshu Island.

Tianshu Island, as the largest and most prosperous immortal island in the Yaoyuan Water Realm, will only be more expensive to rent a cave mansion.

But fortunately, the cave house rented by Su Ming is a first-class cave mansion.

There is only one cave in the entire mountain, Su Ming, but there is no need to crowd on the same peak with other monks like the second-class and third-class caves.

At the beginning of Qingshuifang City, Su Ming was envious of Yuzhu Peak, where Mu Qingyan lived, and now he finally has a cave mansion of his own, although it is rented.

......

Inside the cave.

Su Ming sat cross-legged on the futon, and in the palm of his hand, a paper bird kept circling.

The paper bird appeared to be only slightly larger than the palm of his hand, but it was incredibly agile and flew at a very fast speed.

Su Ming just controlled it simply, and found that when it flew, it made a "snort" sound of tearing the air.

This paper bird puppet is a new type of paper puppet that Su Ming has made in the past five months, or rather, an experimental paper puppet.

Compared to the Sword, Shield, and Bow and Arrow Puppets, this paper bird golem is a consumable paper golem.

Two blood spells were engraved on its interior by Su Ming, namely the Spirit Golem Blood Spell and the Burst Blood Curse.

Compared to the paper arrows shot by the bow and arrow paper man, this paper bird puppet was faster and more flexible, plus Su Ming smashed a full 3 strong points on it, strengthening it to the extreme.

The explosion of this paper bird puppet was even more powerful than the paper arrows shot by the paper man with the bow and arrow, reaching a level comparable to the blow of the Tsukiji monk.

And the paper bird puppet has another advantage, perhaps due to its small size.

Su Ming used the Hall of Immortals to control the paper bird puppet, which felt much easier than controlling the sword and shield paper figures.

He estimated that if all the puppets controlled by the Immortal Hall were changed into paper bird puppets, they would at least be able to control dozens of times more than the paper puppets.

This is a rather exaggerated figure, which means that Su Ming can control thousands of paper bird puppets regardless of the cost.

But whenever Su Ming thought of the enhancement points it would take to make so many paper bird puppets, he couldn't help but retreat in his heart.

It takes 3 Strength Points to strengthen a single Paper Bird Golem, and more than 10,000 Strength Points to strengthen thousands of Paper Bird Golems.

Where did Su Ming get so many enhancement points?

From this point of view, the paper bird puppet is undoubtedly a failed work, and the consumption is too terrifying, even Su Ming can't afford to play it.

However, it is still possible to make a small number of paper bird golems to act as hole cards.

Su Ming glanced at the information in his mind again.

"Reinforcement points: 472 points."

This is all the strengthening points that Su Ming has accumulated for more than five months.

The magic weapons he purchased from Qingshuifang City and seized by the Zhang family were basically digested.

Ponder for a moment.

As soon as Su Ming patted the storage bag, a mini immortal hall flew out quickly.

As soon as the thought moved, a paper puppet jumped out of the immortal hall, and after careful counting, there were a total of forty paper puppets.

These forty paper puppets are all the most primitive paper puppets that have not been strengthened, and the sword and shield paper figures and the bow and arrow paper figures account for half each.

Su Ming's heart was horizontal, and he immediately strengthened them all to the extreme.

At this point, his Boost Point Reserve has dropped to 72 again.

And the number of paper puppets that have been strengthened to the extreme has reached an unprecedented full hundred.

This is also the largest number of paper puppets that the Immortal Hall can control temporarily.

After thinking about it, Su Ming took out 23 paper bird puppets from the storage bag, plus the one in his hand, a full 24.

Reinforcement again.

All 69 enhancement points are smashed down.

The 24 paper bird puppets were all strengthened to the extreme by him, and Su Ming's enhancement points were only 3 points left.

100 paper puppets and 24 paper bird puppets.

This is the current reserve of troops in the Hall of Immortals.

Of course, Su Ming can only control up to 100 paper puppets at a time, and the remaining 24 paper bird puppets can only be used as back hands and hole cards.

In the final analysis, it is still limited by the Immortal Hall itself and Su Ming's cultivation.

Five months.

In addition to developing a new paper puppet, Su Ming did not let go of the most critical cultivation.

Since "Angry Sea Giant Whale Gong" has been cultivated to the top by him, there is no way to advance.

Su Ming has been practicing the "Divine Court Rizhao Sutra" and "Thick Earth Gong" for the past five months.

Hard work pays off, with the help of a steady stream of elixirs.

In five months, Su Ming finally broke through the eighth layer of Qi training.

At this rate, Su Ming is definitely expected to break through to the ninth level of Qi cultivation before the age of twenty.

In addition to his own cultivation, the enhancement of his divine consciousness brought by his cultivation of the "Divine Court Rizhao Sutra" was the most surprising to him.

Now, Su Ming's divine sense exploration range is close to 120 zhang square.

Compared with Zhang Jingyu's divine sense, the scope is one mile away, and it is only more than forty zhang away.

And reaching a radius of one mile shrouded in divine consciousness is the limit of the first layer of the "Divine Court Rizhao Sutra".

If you want to continue to enhance your divine sense, you need to break through the foundation building period and practice the second layer of the "Divine Court Rizhao Sutra".

It is no exaggeration to say that with Su Ming's current strength, even if he doesn't use the formation, he dares to have a head-to-head confrontation with the original ghost mother Bodhisattva.

"It's a pity that the paper puppet still failed to break through the limit and break through to the second order after all."

Su Ming shook his head, "What the spirit puppet real person said is really right, the basis of the blood spell is the spell, and the basis of the spell is the spell, my understanding of the spell is too shallow after all." ”

Su Ming has only been in this world for more than four years.

In the first two years, he focused all his energy on refining weapons, and then, he obtained the golden finger of dismantling and strengthening magic weapons, and spent his energy on paper puppetry and cultivation exercises.

As for the spells, so far, Su Ming has only really learned two techniques, one is the exorcism technique that drives the magic weapon, and the other is the fire bomb technique that destroys the corpse after killing people.

Even the Light Body Technique and the Spirit Shield Technique, which was compulsory for Qi cultivation period cultivators, Su Ming replaced them with spirit runes.

And he uses exorcism and fire bomb techniques, more to draw scoops according to gourds, completely knowing what it is, not knowing why.

This is also the case with a lot of casual practices, and you don't think there's anything wrong with it.

If it weren't for the Lu brothers talking about the importance that Yaoyuan Daoist Academy attached to talismans, Su Ming wouldn't have known that there was so much emphasis on learning spells.

From this, we can also see how difficult it is to cultivate without inheritance.
