Chapter 115: Enlightenment Tower
Early the next morning, Cheng Ling got up early and practiced basic swordsmanship and spells in the courtyard for two hours. These are already his daily habits, and he has to practice basic swordsmanship for at least an hour every day.
As for the spells, although he didn't practice the spells in the Golden Pages, he was very proficient in the basic Five Elements spells, especially the gravitational technique.
Now as long as the mind moves, it can be cast instantly, the accuracy is very high, and the control of his own true yuan has reached a very terrifying realm, he found that the control of the true yuan has been strengthened, and the speed and explosive power of swordsmanship have been greatly improved, which is many times stronger than that of monks of the same level.
There is also a body method, the grade of the body method is not high, only the rank of the middle grade, but under the addition of gravity and thunder power, he was forcibly promoted to the peak of the middle grade, and created the body method of the divine thunder disease, which is much higher than the average monk of the same level.
Today, the morning cultivation has come to an end, it's time to take a look at the situation of the Enlightenment Tower, I don't know what kind of means the sword technique is.
The long sword was unsheathed, and Cheng Ling left the attic and walked in the direction of the Enlightenment Tower. The attic of 25,000 is quiet, but unfortunately it is too far from the central area, and the resources of the academy are in the central area, and it takes a lot of time to go every time, and it seems that you have to get a means of transportation.
In the outer disciple area of the academy, there is a ban on air, and the disciples are not allowed to fly. Flying is only allowed at the inner door. However, if there is a demand, there will always be a new means of transportation, that is, the monster mount.
There are many types of monster mounts, which can be rented and purchased by disciples. However, the purchase price is very high, and only contribution points are charged, and spirit stones are not supported.
Cheng Ling finally figured out some of the things in the disciple's token. Contribution points are a kind of virtual currency used by the disciples of the academy for cultivation and trading.
When each disciple first entered the academy, he had the opportunity to use the Cultivation Pagoda, the Enlightenment Pagoda, and the Library Pavilion for free. In the future, if you want to enter again, you will have to pay contribution points.
There are many ways to obtain contribution points, comprehending swordsmanship and contributing to the academy, or going out to experience to obtain materials, exercises, swordsmanship, etc., can be handed over to the academy in exchange for contribution points. There are even disciples who bet with each other, challenge bets, ask questions, and so on.
There are many channels, as long as you have the ability and do not violate the rules of the college, you can get as many as you want. However, the cost of contribution points is also amazing, whether it is elixir, exercises, swordsmanship, etc., if you want to get it, you have to exchange it with contribution points.
As for achievement points, they are not something that ordinary disciples can obtain. It is often obtained by making great contributions to the academy, such as defending against external enemies, becoming one of the top three disciples of the academy, or contributing to a very high-level cheat.
In the outer disciple area, there are very few disciples with achievement points, and there are very few places to use them, and only disciples of higher levels can have the corresponding cheats and secret realms to use.
Cheng Ling's footsteps did not stop, and it didn't take long for him to come to the Enlightenment Tower. Inside the tower, there are deacons and disciples guarding it. He handed over the disciple token, and the deacon disciple took it, swept his senses, and said, "Go in, cherish this free opportunity." ”
Cheng Ling nodded and walked in.
The space inside the tower is not large and is hexagonal. Patterns are painted on each wall, and when viewed from the side, they look like they are carved out of earth and stone, unevenly uneven, and many disciples sit cross-legged in front of the patterns, meditating on them.
Cheng Ling glanced at it and saw the disciples sitting densely in front of the tower wall, and secretly smiled bitterly. There are too many disciples in this outer sect, and they don't even have a place to participate in enlightenment, and if they sit behind those disciples, they are afraid to look at them
It is not real enough, and the effect of meditation is too low.
His eyes swept around, trying to find a gap for enlightenment. Finally, I saw the center of the tower, there is a thick eight-sided stone pillar, the pattern on it is much clearer than the one on the tower wall, and there are very few disciples in front of the stone pillar.
With a secret joy in his heart, he hurriedly stepped forward, regardless of seizing a position, sat down, stared at the stone pillar in front of him, and began to comprehend.
He didn't know that this move would startle the disciples who were watching outside the tower. One of the disciples said, "Who is this person? How come I haven't seen it before, is it the senior brother who just rushed into the inner gate recently?"
"Don't talk about you, I haven't even seen it, and there haven't been any strong newcomers popping up recently, it can't be a new disciple, right?"
"No, the new disciple dares to directly participate in the Enlightenment Stone Pillar, do you want to remind him? I must not know the mystery of the Enlightenment Tower, I am afraid that I will die of exhaustion of spiritual power later!"
"You're stupid, I didn't see him fall into enlightenment. At this time, go and remind you, if you don't die, you will be crippled!"
"It shouldn't be, ordinary disciples from sects and families know the reason, how could such a newcomer suddenly appear, could it be that he is a loose cultivator?"
"Impossible, how can Sanxiu have the ability to survive the three levels of the famous sword, it must be the two hundred and five of which family, if you don't listen carefully to the teachings of the master, this is miserable, let's hurry up and notify the deacon disciples, let the elders come over to save their lives!"
"Yes, looking at his age, he is only about twenty years old, it's a pity to die like this, you should hurry up and inform the deacon disciples!"
"Why don't you go, you want me to go!"
"Okay, don't make any noise, look at his appearance, he doesn't look like a treacherous person, I'll go and inform the deacon disciples!"
Soon, the news that a new disciple had entered the Enlightenment Pagoda for the first time to comprehend the stone pillar sword technique spread the news, and even the deacon elders were alarmed.
Coincidentally, the elder on duty today is none other than Jian Lao Dao. Just when his old god was sitting on the Taishi chair, planning in his heart how to get close to Cheng Ling and increase his cultivation. The deacon disciple of the Enlightenment Pagoda walked in and told the reason for the incident.
Jian Lao Dao sighed secretly in his heart, and he didn't know which unlucky child he was, just one day after joining the Famous Sword Academy, he made such a big oolong, it seems that he can't keep it, and if he doesn't die, he will become an idiot. But as a deacon elder, I always have to go and see.
He reluctantly got up and walked towards the Enlightenment Pagoda with his deacon disciples.
At this time, many of the disciples who were meditating and contemplating were awakened by the noise in the tower. They glared angrily, and they really wanted to beat up those noisy disciples.
You must know that it is not so simple to enter enlightenment, and many disciples spend several hours or even days before they finally reach enlightenment and are awakened by others. It feels like a striker on a football pitch who goes straight in and sees that he can score a goal, only to find that he hits the crossbar.
When they learned the truth, they all looked at Cheng Ling in surprise. This kid can, he chose the stone pillar for the first time he came to enlightenment, I really don't know how to write the word dead, it depends on how long he can last, waiting for the corpse to be collected!
Jian Lao Dao was slow and leisurely, his footsteps were not chaotic at all, and he rubbed for more than half an hour before he came to the Enlightenment Tower, and as soon as he entered, he asked indifferently: "Which rookie disciple is it, and is he still saved?"
One of the disciples said, "Elder, it's him, it's been more than half an hour, I'm afraid I can't save it." ”
Jian Lao Dao turned his head and looked, and his eyes were stunned
The stun was the size of a brass bell. For the first time, I regretted why I came so slowly, it's over, it's completely over! Seeing a rising star in kendo with great talent and understanding die like this, it's really painful for me!
He scolded angrily at the deacon disciples of the Enlightenment Tower: "Didn't you remind him not to participate in the sword skills on the stone pillar without authorization, it's a pity, it's a pity! It's all your fault, you waste, the hope of my Kendo Academy is gone!"
The disciples were shocked in their hearts, the hope of the Kendo Academy? Could it be the rookie disciple in front of him, how could he make the deacon elders take such a fancy to him?
The deacon's disciples were scolded so much that their brains couldn't turn around. I was even more aggrieved in my heart, I didn't remind me in advance, but who knows that people don't know, besides, aren't you also slow, grinding for most of the hour.
It turns out that the sword skills in the Enlightenment Tower are not so easy to comprehend. The sword skills around the tower wall, the average disciple can comprehend one or two, which is considered good, and there are less than 100 people who can comprehend four or five.
As for the sword skills on the stone pillars, they are even more high-end, and only the top 100 disciples have always had the ability to comprehend. Moreover, among the 100 people, there are only about 30 disciples who have learned swordsmanship, which is not a small difficulty. Even the old sword Dao back then, he only learned one sword skill from the stone pillar.
Comprehending sword skills requires the spiritual power of the monk, and the patterns around the tower wall are of low grade, and the monk cannot comprehend it, but will only consume a lot of spiritual power, and it will not be in danger of life.
The sword skills on the stone pillar are different, the patterns there are relatively clear, and the sword skills that have been comprehended are of a very high grade. But that stone pillar is like a kind of magic power, if it weren't for the spiritual power is very strong, you can't quit without comprehending the sword technique, and you have lost many disciples in the past.
The top 100 disciples of the outer sect have all reached the peak of Jindan consummation, and their spiritual power is very strong. Even if you can't come to enlightenment, it's just that you consume too much, you can't use your divine sense for a long time, or you fall into a coma, and your life won't be in danger, but it's very dangerous!
In view of this, the deacons and disciples of the academy will remind the new disciples to pay attention when they visit enlightenment. However, for decades, this has become an unwritten rule, and ordinary families and sects know it, so the vigilance of the deacon's disciples has been relaxed, and they have not reminded Cheng Ling.
But who knew that Cheng Ling was a standard otaku, and after coming to the academy, he chose a remote residence, without asking any old disciples for advice, and Liu Qingyan never told him this, so he didn't know at all. I just thought that there was a vacancy in front of me, so I tried to go to enlightenment!
Jian Lao Dao was sad for a while, raised his eyes to look at Cheng Ling, but found that Cheng Ling's state didn't seem to have changed, just sitting cross-legged so quietly, his breath was well-proportioned, not like a state of consuming too much mental power.
With a glimmer of hope burning in his heart, he asked the disciples in the tower, "How long has he been enlightened?"
"Back to Elder, it's almost an hour!"
"What? It's been an hour, so why hasn't his state changed much, even his face is normal, you didn't lie to me?"
"The disciple didn't dare to deceive the elder, we had planned to wake him up before, so as not to fall into the mud, but looking at his state, we knew that he was in the middle of enlightenment, so we didn't dare to alarm, let the deacon disciple invite you!"
Jian Lao Dao turned his head and asked, "Is that so?"
The deacon's disciple nodded like a chicken pecking rice, he was afraid, if the old man of the sword was angry, he would never be able to eat and walk around!
The sword elder flashed in his eyes, and a flash thought flashed in his heart, could he really have the ability to comprehend sword skills from the stone pillar?
