Chapter Thirty-Eight: Crisis
"Buzz!"
Nie Fan pinched the six-character mantra seal in his hand, and made a sound of "hum!" in his mouth, and easily guided the invisible power that poured out of the surrounding heaven and earth with the power of the mind in the sea of consciousness to a black and white spot outside the qi outside, suppressing the black spot that was about to move, forming a strange balance situation in which only a little black remained in the large area of white.
Nie Fan exhaled softly, looking at the nine strange black and white acupuncture points surrounded by the sea of qi in his body, his heart was full of a sense of accomplishment. Just for these nine trick points, Nie Fan has wasted nearly half a month's time, and when others impact the transcendent realm and know the approximate location of the trick points, how can it be as troublesome as Nie Fan, just use the refining qi to break away the trick points, and it will probably be completed in about a day.
However, it only took half a month to complete this task, and Nie Fan was already very satisfied. Originally, Nie Fan expected that it would take a month to turn all nine tricks into this wonderful balance state, but as Nie Fan became more familiar with the six-character mantra seal, and in the process of resuming the cycle of consumption, Nie Fan's qi and the power of his mind were greatly improved, becoming more refined, and Nie Fan's time to condense a trick point became faster and faster. From a few days of the first trick to the last trick in less than a day, it's just a flying speed.
The nine tricks have been condensed, and his own strength has also been improved, Nie Fan's accumulation in the mortal realm has reached a limit, and if he continues to cultivate, it is only an accumulation of cultivation, there is no way to get a qualitative improvement, and it is time to complete that last step and break through the transcendent realm.
Nie Fan took a deep breath, now is the critical moment, although the nine points have been successfully suppressed to that wonderful balance of black and white, but now is the critical moment. Unlike before, when you suppressed the condensation technique, you could try it repeatedly, and failure would consume some energy at most, without any danger. This second step can only be done once, and failure cannot be tolerated, and the consequences of failure will be crippled at best, and there will be no more opportunities to cultivate in this life, or death on the spot.
Even forty percent of the disciples of the Ancient Sect who were destroyed by King Pan fell at this step, so nothing in this world was obtained for no reason, and there was no reward for what was paid.
About half an hour later, Nie Fan made up for all the previous losses, and at the same time, his state was adjusted to the best, his heart was facing the sky, and his eyes were closed. The power of the mind in the sea of consciousness poured out, heading towards the sea of qi in Nie Fan's body, and on the way, the huge power of thought separated nine tentacles, and probed towards the nine points outside the qi that maintained a wonderful balance, and at the same time, the qi in Nie Fan's body that had been refined to the extreme and showed a liquid state also went towards the nine points.
"Well!"
Nie Fan's mouth once again emitted a strange syllable that was different from the previous time when he condensed the trick, and correspondingly, a different mark also appeared in Nie Fan's hand.
With the formation of the mark in Nie Fan's hand, an invisible force suddenly appeared, different from the previous invisible force generated by the surrounding heaven and earth, this new invisible force was generated from Nie Fan's body, more precisely, from the nine points in the sea of qi in Nie Fan's body.
With the generation of this invisible force, the nine points that were originally in a state of balance also began to move, and the small black spots that had been suppressed by Nie Fan to the last point became fierce in vain, swallowing half of the white spots in just one breath, and at the same time, this invisible force also spread towards the sea of qi. Where the power of form passed, there was originally only liquid Gang Qi in the sea of qi, and some gray mist drilled out of the void in vain and corroded towards the meridians and bones of Nie Fan's body, and all the meridian bones that were swept by the gray mist immediately showed a feeling of decay, as if they were about to break, and looking at the speed of its erosion, it would not take long for it to enter Nie Fan's brain, and then Nie Fan would be difficult to save even if he was an immortal, either crippled or dead.
Simply, at this time, the tentacles of the huge power of mind in Nie Fan's body had already reached the periphery of the nine acupoints. The powerful power of mind sensed the invasion of the invisible force on the sea of qi, and immediately wiped out the part of the invisible force that had already touched the sea of qi, and then entangled with the invisible power that continued to emerge in the nine holes, both of which were formless and insubstantial forces, and the two competed with each other, but they also complemented each other.
At the same time, the liquid Gang Qi refined in Nie Fan's body also began to travel around his body to repair the meridians and bones that had been eroded by the gray mist, and a large stream of liquid Gang Qi laid a line of defense around Nie Fan's neck to prevent it from being invaded by the gray mist, so that there was really no chance of winning at all.
At the same time, Nie Fan also separated a stream of liquid Gang Qi and poured it into the nine acupoints outside the qi, so as not to completely invade the white spots by the black spots, so that not only would his efforts in the previous half a month be in vain, but with the complete power of the acupoints as a backup, the invisible power and gray mist would also increase greatly, so what would happen to Nie Fan.
Nie Fan was very glad that he had completely cultivated in accordance with the steps of the six-character mantra seal, and tried his best to suppress the nine acupoints to the previous state, so that the invisible power and the gray mist were not too powerful at the beginning, otherwise Nie Fan really didn't know how to resist.
However, even though Nie Fan had achieved his full strength, the white spots on the nine points were still slowly shrinking, and they were swallowed up by the black spots. Along with this, the invisible power and gray mist that had been boosted more and more became more and more powerful, and gradually Nie Fan already felt that he was about to start and had no way to stop it.
As the black spots occupied more and more of the area in the nine acupoints, the invisible power was okay, Nie Fan's power of thought was naturally strong, and he could barely suppress it, but the gray mist produced in the sea of qi became more and more, and the liquid qi in Nie Fan's body gradually showed a state of exhaustion.
Nie Fan's originally plain and calm face began to lose calm at this time, and Nie Fan did not expect this situation, after all, what Nie Fan got was only the content of the exercises that the Pan King knew, and the Pan King at that time obviously no longer needed this low-level secret method, so he naturally didn't know what the situation was like when this secret method was cultivated, all of which were just Nie Fan's own speculations before, and now this situation has obviously exceeded Nie Fan's prediction, and the consequence is that Nie Fan may fall into death at any time.
In fact, the correct cultivation method of this secret method is to cultivate with the assistance of the elders around him, even in the original ancient sect, there was no disciple who cultivated this secret method alone, and the elders of the sect would not allow any disciple to practice this secret method alone without the protection of the elders. Because the danger of this secret method is too great, even with the care of the elders of the sect, the proportion of deaths of that ancient sect is at least forty percent, which shows how difficult the cultivation of this secret method is.
Only a person like Nie Fan, who only has secret methods and no inheritance, will cultivate directly and recklessly like this.
In the face of this life-and-death crisis, Nie Fan gritted his teeth, although he had not yet understood it, but at present, the other Nie Fan could not take care of it, so he could only be a dead horse as a live horse doctor.
Then Nie Fan's mind moved, and suddenly the power of the mind that was originally in a stalemate with the invisible force split into a force that followed the meridians to find a place with relatively little gray mist, and after easily suppressing the gray mist, it began to operate along a wonderful route in Nie Fan's body with the gray mist.
Although Nie Fan had suppressed this gray mist, the invulnerable nature of the gray mist still existed, and soon the power of Nie Fan's separation of thoughts was completely eroded by the gray mist, but at this time, the gray mist was also transformed into a strange golden air flow through the operation of the mysterious route.
As soon as this golden air flow was formed, it began to sweep over the place where the gray mist in Nie Fan's body was, driving the gray mist along the way to follow the mysterious route before. The powerful corrosive power of those gray mist seemed useless in front of the golden air current, but was greedily devoured by the golden air flow to strengthen his body, turning into a thin golden silk thread that poured into Nie Fan's body, strengthening Nie Fan's body.
Nie Fan breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately he got this secret method from the memory of King Pan, otherwise Nie Fan really didn't know what to do.
Yes, the golden air flow is the one that Nie Fan obtained from the memory of the Cultivation Word Plate King, and the refining method of absorbing the essence of all things in heaven and earth to forge his body came from the glazed golden body technique, and only this kind of domineering technique of plundering the essence of all things in heaven and earth to strengthen his body can ignore the powerful erosive instinct of the gray mist and absorb and refine it.
However, although Nie Fan had successfully cultivated the Glazed Golden Body Technique, the situation was still not optimistic, as the black spots occupied more and more area on the surface of the nine acupoints, the power of the invisible power and the gray mist became stronger and stronger. Nie Fan's power of mind already felt that he was about to be unable to suppress the invisible power, and although the glazed golden body technique was powerful, Nie Fan was only cultivating for the first time, and even the first layer of the glazed golden body formula had not yet been fully comprehended, and the power was still a little weak, and the speed of devouring could not keep up with the faster and faster generation of gray mist.
If the fundamental problem of the nine acupoints could not be solved, then Nie Fan would not be able to get rid of the end of death after all, and he would not be able to get through this life and death crisis.
Now, all the means that Nie Fan can use have been used, although the most powerful hole card talent sword realm has been promoted to the fourth rank because of the memory of the Pan King, but it needs to suppress the Xuanyuan sword transformation, and there is no way to draw strength to help Nie Fan, so unless it is the last step, Nie Fan will not use the power of the talent sword realm no matter what.
