Quiet room.

"That day, when I saw the duel between Shizun and Chi Liang, Shizun was heroic and cool, and he was not afraid of Chi Liang's soul attack at all, what was that defensive spell called?" Chen Ping humbly asked.

The Great War is imminent, and defensive spells, talismans, and escape methods are available.

Divine Soul Defense is currently a shortcoming.

It's not a matter that the Divine Soul attack has always relied on magic weapons for defense, and you have to learn some spells.

So far, the only time he had fought against Jin Dan was the old man who had protected Monk Qin outside the Qingyun Domain.

At that time, when he used the sword technique of protecting the duel, the old man drew a circle with one hand to break his trick and fall sword technique.

Chen Ping remembers this vividly.

I've been coveting this kind of spell for a long time.

"What? Do you want to learn?" Xiyue's eyes raised slightly, and she was accustomed to Chen Ping's habitual patting of sycophants before asking for help.

Chen Ping didn't beat around the bush:

"The big war is imminent, and it's the demon beast's lair again, and I'm afraid there are a lot of people in the late third order. I've read the relevant books before, and there are individual demon beasts that are very good at soul attacks. I thought it would be best to be able to practice a spell."

Xiyue snorted:

"It never hurts to learn."

"But two years is too short a time to learn a spell. When it's time to fight, it's better to avoid those demon beasts."

Her consciousness moved slightly, and a piece of jade slip appeared out of thin air in her hand and handed it to Chen Ping:

"The Divine Soul Defense Technique of this Seat against Chi Liang is a Yuan Infant Spell, and you can't practice it. But this one can. This spell was obtained by luck at an auction by this seat, and this seat has seen it, and it is not bad. Originally, she was going to practice for an apprentice, but when she returned to the sect, she had already practiced another spell."

"Just for you."

"Thank you, Master." Chen Pingxi said.

Xiyue nodded and stopped cultivating.

These days, the high-intensity practice is a bit boring, and at this moment, Chen Ping is just right to chat with Chen Ping.

But as soon as she turned around, when she turned around, she found that Chen Ping had left.

couldn't help but scold Chen Ping in his heart.

… This guy is so snobbish that he takes the spell and leaves.

……

Chen Ping returned to the quiet room, and immediately injected his divine sense into the jade slip and read it.

This spell is called "Hades Burning Divine Formula".

The effect is somewhat similar to the Protector Weapon that Chen Ping obtained before, and when it is attacked by the Divine Soul, it can form a magic shield to resist spell attacks.

The difference is that the strength of the efficacy of the ritual instrument is fixed. And the strength of the spell can continue to grow and strengthen.

Continuing to look down, Chen Ping couldn't help but be happy again.

This spell is divided into nine layers, which is suitable for different cultivation realms to practice.

The first three layers are the Jindan period spells.

This means that as long as this spell is not weak, you can continue to practice it, and you don't need to find other suitable Yuan Shen defense spells when you reach the Yuan Infant.

Chen Ping sat down on the jade bed and began to comprehend according to the content of the law.

A new spell is always a little difficult to practice, but Chen Ping has never lacked patience.

Three days later, Chen Ping drew a circle with one hand.

A flaming skull formed in front of him. As soon as his consciousness moved, the skull roared, roared out with a terrifying aura, and then disappeared.

Boy.

It's a bit like the Soul Whip. The Soul Whip is to draw a skull on the whip for each soul draw, and this spell summons a skull.

It's just that......

How do you feel like you're getting more and more underworld?

Proper demon cultivation, this is.

[Flame Burning Recipe (1F) (Beginner): 1/1000. 】

Well, the form doesn't matter, it's just a defensive effect. ，

According to Yu Jian, the deeper this spell is practiced, the skull

The bigger the head, the sharper it will be. ，

'Let's continue to practice and strive to complete the first level as soon as possible. ，

‘……，

……

Time flies.

On this day, a wasteland valley outside the village.

A huge green sword fell from the sky, and with a "bang" went straight into the wasteland. The surrounding area was flattened in an instant, and even if a dozen mute notes were played in advance, it still caused a lot of sound turmoil.

On the wasteland, a gray-robed monk stood tall, his robe constantly flying backwards in the turbulent waves.

This person is Chen Ping.

He withdrew the Seven-Star Dragon Yuan Sword, felt the transparent throbbing in his heart, and clicked out the panel.

[Qingmang Sword: Complete. 】

It's finally complete!

This spell started from the first layer of foundation building and continued to practice to the first layer of Jindan, and after decades of practice, it finally came to an end.

It's not easy.

It's no wonder that Ji Yan said that this spell was difficult to understand, and it was a spell that even the dogs of the Ling Xiao Sect hated, although it was a precious secret art, almost no one practiced it.

It was even delegated to Xiuxian City.

That's right, too.

If I hadn't been able to see the progress bar and clearly appreciate the joy of advancement, I'd have given up long ago.

Decades of practice, an offensive foundation-building spell.

Who can stand this?

But.

This bittersweet taste is really good.

Chen Ping only felt extremely satisfied in his heart at this moment, this spell was extremely powerful, and it was his biggest reliance in the entire foundation building period. At present, it also has great value in the early stage of Jindan.

Decades of hard work are worth it.

Chen Ping lifted the Seven-Star Dragon Yuan Sword and looked at the demon totem and sword body patterns on the sword.

When I first got this sword, when I cast the Qingmang Sword, the totem symbol of the demon clan and the texture of the sword body were only slightly shining, and that glimmer flashed.

There aren't many shiny lines either.

At this time, when the Qingmang Sword was cast again, the degree of illumination of the sword body was already dozens of times higher than before, and the duration of the spirit was also longer.

This sword is more special, and the lines are not lit by spiritual power.

Rather, it relied on sword intent.

This means that his sword intent has reached a surging level.

Chen Ping couldn't help but smile to himself.

He closed his eyes slightly, he had a sword in his heart, and countless sword intents flew around him, cutting a piece of reed into several pieces.

The sword body of the Seven-Star Dragon Yuan Sword seemed to have been induced, and it suddenly shone brightly, making a buzzing sound.

'This sword intent, if you want to hammer the road to the north again, I don't know if his Dao heart will be damaged. ，

Chen Ping smiled again and opened his eyes.

But he was suddenly startled, and his whole body tensed for a moment.

What's going on?

How is this not a wasteland?

He saw himself standing in front of a deep tunnel, the tunnel was pitch black, and his divine sense sensed that the tunnel was bottomless, and he didn't know where the end was.

But it is full of sword intent that covers the sky and the sun.

The sword intent that overwhelmed people's breath.

But he was so shocked, the sword intent in his state of mind was withdrawn, and he woke up in an instant.

Flattened pits, messy reeds, endless wasteland......

Chen Ping exhaled.

It turned out that he was still in the same place.

'What is that tunnel full of sword intent?' ，…… Chen Ping looked at the Seven Star Dragon Yuan Sword in his hand.

Could it be the sword intent avenue of this sword?

Something in the sword?

Thinking of this, Chen Ping tried again according to the process just now, and sure enough, he entered the Sword Intent Avenue again.

And he found that the withdrawal just now was not because he was frightened, but because the Qiankun in this sword had a natural rejection of others.

Chen Ping tried several times before he got it

In order to stand firm before the dark tunnel.

Even so, he still felt an incomparably strong sense of oppression, a sense of oppression that made him want to surrender.

He moved forward, wanting to take a step forward.

No, half a step.

But even such a move, at the moment when he moved, he was unexpectedly thrown out.

'What a surging sword intent. ，

'It's so oppressive. ，

Chen Ping remembered the idea that he had just teased Lu Xiangbei in his heart, and now, in front of the Seven Star Dragon Yuan Sword, it was as if he was Lu Xiangbei.

That sword intent seemed to be laughing - just you?

Chen Ping looked at the Seven-Star Dragon Yuan Sword, and didn't dare to continue trying, in case something went wrong, it would be troublesome.

Go back and ask Xiyue.

See what the hell is going on in this situation.

I thought that among the treasures given by the Helian family, Jin Dan was the most valuable thing, but I never thought that the value of this sword would not be weaker than Jin Dan. ，

'Good stuff. ，

The Helian family has not produced a single sword cultivator for hundreds of years, and it deserves to be unable to grasp such a good sword.

Chen Ping put away his sword and turned back to the village.

This place was the other party he had been looking for for a long time to find who practiced destructive spells, there were no demon beasts within a radius of hundreds of miles, and the security was relatively high.

But even so, for the sake of safety, every time Chen Ping practiced the Qingmang Sword, he would not stay here for a long time after making a big noise.

If a demon beast hears the news, it will be troublesome.

When I went back, I didn't run away, but sneaked all the way back to the village.

After entering the village, it was even more swaggering.

In the past two years, everyone has been desperately earning resources and life-saving materials during the battle, if he doesn't go out once, he will inevitably be targeted by people with a heart like Xuan Laoxiu.

It's more reasonable to go out once in a while.

As he walked through the village, he saw a monk carrying another seriously wounded monk back to the village, followed by several monks.

Chen Ping hurriedly flashed it again and let it fly first.

"Yang Daoyou, what's wrong?"

Chen Ping was not the only one who saw it, but many monks walked out of the cave one after another, stopping to watch, and some people couldn't help but ask loudly.

The group did not answer, and hurried forward.

"The one who was injured is the leader of the Guardians of the Ancient Tower, Senior Zhu."

"Looks like the injury isn't light."

"Hey, what's going on? Isn't Zhu Daoyou a late Jindan cultivator? It's all hurting?"

「……」

There was a lot of talking.

Chen Ping watched the group enter the formation and sighed inwardly.

At this time, there were only three months before the big battle, and the leader was actually injured at this juncture.

That's not a good thing.

I don't know what's going on either.

Chen Ping did not go back to the cave mansion directly, but went to the general affairs hall first.

With only three months to go before the Great War, the Guardians of the Ancient Pagoda have already drawn a route map to the mysterious ruins, and every Jindan monk or Tsukiji monk can go to the Shuwu Hall to get one for free.

After getting the road map, Chen Ping returned to his cave.

Back in the ashram, I looked at the road map.

The village is about two million miles away from the mysterious ruins, and the route planned by the Guardians of the Ancient Tower is said to be the best one found in decades.

The route with the fewest monsters.

As long as you fly quickly along this route, the number of monsters encountered can be controlled to a minimum.

'The distance of two million miles, according to the speed of Jindan, will take a lot of time to reach. ，

Chen Ping closes the album.

There are still three months to go, and we have to make final preparations. ，

In the past two years, when others are going out, Chen Ping is practicing; When others were looking for resources, Chen Ping sat in the spirit mine

Upper Practice; While others were struggling to save their lives, Chen Ping sat on the spiritual mine and concentrated on his cultivation.

In the three and a half years since the foundation was built, his exercises Five Qi Dynasty Yuan Tianzhang have reached the 'Entry: 86/100,'.

The realm reaches 'Beginner': 38/100.

Chen Ping was already very satisfied with this progress, before he didn't have a large number of spirit ores, his realm had only increased by 13 points in eight months a year.

After having an unlimited supply of spirit ore, it was also more than a year and eight months, and the realm increased by 25 points.

The speed has almost doubled.

That's already pretty good.

Although the realm is still 'one layer', this 'one layer' is not the same as the 'one layer' when I first entered Jindan.

Nowadays, I am very familiar with the adaptability of Jindan's body, the understanding and application of Jindan's ability, and so on. On the battlefield now, the ability to save oneself will be far greater than three and a half years ago.

It's not just the exercises and realms.

Now the Qingmang Sword has been practiced to perfection, and the Divine Soul Protection Spell 'Hades Soul Splitting Technique' has also been practiced to the first level (Beginner): 981/1000,.

Soon to be able to 'become proficient,'.

In addition, he has not stopped drawing talismans in recent years. There are often people hunting beasts here, so there is no shortage of animal skins, and you can make your own talisman skins.

Now there are thousands of golden armor talismans and evil talismans in stock, and even some have been given to Xiyue. There are also hundreds of niche runes such as glitter charms.

'There are still three months left, just practice the Hades Soul Splitting Technique step by step. ，

By the way, figure out the matter of the Seven Star Dragon Yuan Sword. ，

Thinking of this, Chen Ping went to find Xiyue.

……

Vaguely raised his doubts.

"You're talking about the Ancient Treasure of Soul Slayer, right?" Hearing Chen Ping's doubts and inquiries, Xiyue asked rhetorically.

"What is the Ancient Treasure of Soul Slayer?" Chen Ping had never heard of this term and was very puzzled.

"Do you know what a magic weapon is?" Xiyue didn't answer directly, but asked rhetorically.

"If you know something, please explain it in detail."

Magic weapons are a more advanced type of weapons than magic weapons.

The so-called magic weapon is a monk driven by spiritual power, forged under certain conditions and burned on it with various laws and prohibitions, and under the condition of not being damaged, it can be used as a continuous spiritual power storage/transmitter.

The magic weapon, on the other hand, was essentially a magic weapon in the beginning, but it was forged from a higher grade material. Its qualitative change lies in the fact that after a long period of dantian true yuan cultivation, it has a strong mana.

When the magic weapon has been cultivated by the monk's dantian true yuan and has enough spirituality, there is a very small probability that it can be cultivated into the instrument spirit.

The process of cultivating the spirit is extremely difficult.

It is also extremely rare.

But once successful, the magic weapon with the machine spirit will be far more powerful than the ordinary magic weapon.

But there is also a risk, if the machine spirit is destroyed, then the spirituality of this magic weapon will be completely lost, and it will be reduced to the most ordinary magic weapon, and even the power can only be compared with similar magic weapons.

This is the disadvantage of this type of magic weapon.

There is a special category.

In ancient times, there were some special magic weapon forging methods, or forging methods that have been lost.

Magic weapons forged by such means are often called ancient treasures.

There is a kind of ancient treasure, after its instrument spirit is destroyed, the ancient treasure only loses its spirituality, and it will not be destroyed itself, nor will it be greatly reduced, and even the Tao rhyme or spiritual understanding possessed by the instrument spirit will be sealed in the ancient treasure.

This kind of ancient treasure that has been destroyed is called-

- 'Soul Destroying Ancient Treasure,'
