Chapter 41: The Passing Year VS the Five Elements

After Xue Ying saw it, she had to admire the little ant's ability to observe the pictures, and carefully explained for it, "This fire is owned by the extremely cold land, it is called Cold Ice Cold Flame, the flame heart is pure white, and the surrounding area tends to be between transparent and white. Not only is it not hot, but it also gives people a cold and cold feeling. ”

"Haha, this is tailor-made for me!Xiao Ying, we must go to the extremely cold land if we have a chance, now I will refine the spiritual liquid first!"

Xue Ying admires the attitude of the little ant, if she likes one thing, even if there are thousands of difficulties, she must overcome them one by one. Dreams still have to be had, what if they come true?

"Okay, I promise you, we will definitely go to the extreme cold land if we have the chance!"

What Xue Ying didn't tell the little ant was: The cold ice flame is extremely rare, and it is born with spiritual intelligence, and it will transform into all kinds of demon beasts and plants in extremely cold places, which are difficult to find and capture.

"Hee-hee, Xiaoying, you're the best!"

Xue Ying and the little ant left the library two hours ago, returned to the Spirit Grass Garden, and resumed their respective daily routines—Xue Ying took care of the elixir and spirit grass while cultivating and healing, and the little ant slept in the shade after foraging for food.

Unlike before, Xue Ying would collect the morning dew drops on the white petals and watch it grow alive little by little, while the little ants would secretly bring some spirit grass to condense and purify the spirit liquid when they came back from foraging, so Xue Ying specially bought it many small porcelain bottles and a small storage bag.

When it was Xue Ying's turn to give a lecture, it was no longer difficult for Xue Ying to reluctantly listen to the lecture for herself, and she would cultivate in the Spirit Grass Garden with peace of mind, and the little ant would take her identity token early and go to the hall alone, occupying the center of the first row, and dancing when she heard it, which became a spectacle of the hall lecture for a while.

It turned out that some monks just heard about the deeds of the little ant and made a special trip to it, and the income of the hall increased a lot in an instant, so that the little ant never brought an identity token later.

Three months later, Xue Ying's injuries have completely recovered, and even his cultivation has increased a little, although the Tianshan Snow Lotus has not returned to its original state, the white petals are obviously bright and stiff, and the little ant's achievements are even more significant, not only harvesting a lot of spiritual liquid, but also successfully growing into a third-level demon beast because of stealing a lot of spiritual grass.

"First brother, the mission of the Spirit Grass Garden is over, let's go out! The comfortable life has passed, and the excitement of the outside world is waiting for us!"

The little ant cherished the storage bag hanging around his neck, "Hehe, I have purified at least one part of the spiritual liquid of the elixir and spiritual grass in the entire Spirit Grass Garden. Let's go, go find more elixir and spirit herbs!"

"Both?"

"Of course, Brother Yi will not miss any kind of elixir spirit grass, which is a necessary quality for a Dan Dao master. ”

"You're strong!Alas, in order to go to the Library Pavilion to obtain the exercises, the next few days should be very exciting!"

For a month, Xue Ying traveled back and forth between the sect office and various valleys every day, picking boneless flowers, taking silver-veined snake gall bladders, and looking for refined iron ore......

"First brother, I finally scraped together enough 30,000 contribution points, and I can go to the Library Pavilion to obtain swordsmanship!"

The little ant was running around with Xue Ying these days, and finally returned to the house, and was busy counting the newly obtained elixir and spirit grass, ready to seize the time to condense the spiritual liquid, and only said casually, "Well, very good!"

Xue Ying was waiting for the little ant's next praise and envy, but she didn't expect it to be only four words, but it didn't affect her excited mood, "Brother Yi, then you are tinkering here, I'll go to the library pavilion!"

The little ant didn't raise his head, and waved his left front leg casually, "Go quickly, I'm busy!"

Xue Ying grimaced from behind it and hurried to the library pavilion.

"Consult the classics or exchange the exercises?"

"Exchange a practice. ”

"It takes 30,000 contribution points to exchange an exercise, so take your identity token!"

"On the second floor are knives, guns, swords, halberds... All kinds of weapon secret techniques, the third floor is the cultivation method of refining qi and refining the body, which can be cultivated until the infancy stage, you can choose according to your needs, and the selection time is an hour.

This is a bamboo slip for transmission of gong, you use this bamboo slip to reproduce the exercises and paste them into the center of your eyebrows, it will automatically enter your sea of consciousness, so as not to spread the exercises. On the fourth floor, unless you have made a significant contribution to the sect or are an elder in the infancy stage, you can't enter!"

Xue Ying took the bamboo slip and the identity token, answered yes, and entered the library again, this time directly up to the second floor, looking for the part about swordsmanship. There are a large number of sword techniques, suitable for all kinds of immortal cultivators, and she hesitates between the two.

One of them is called the Flowing Year, and there are eight small characters underneath: Floating like a dream, like a flowing year. There is only one style of swordsmanship, but it can make the opponent relive the bitterness and bitterness of the past in an instant, and end this life in a daze in a dream. The user's life experience and perception of time deepens, and the power of swordsmanship increases.

The other is called the Five Elements, which transmits the user's spiritual root attributes to the sword, making it have the hardness of gold, the toughness of wood, the agility of water, the heat of fire, and the tolerance of earth. Depending on the opponent's situation, you can choose to pass on different spirit root attributes.

According to the principle of the five elements, wood gives birth to fire, fire gives birth to earth, earth gives birth to gold, gold gives birth to water, and water gives birth to wood, and at the same time, the spiritual root attribute of mutual growth is transmitted to multiple swords, which will bring a bonus effect. If the user can use five uses of one heart and one with the formation, he can retreat in front of a high-level cultivator, and even defeat him.

The two books have their own advantages and disadvantages, the power of the passing year is good, the effect is special, but there is only one style, once the opponent is prepared, it is easy to fail; the five elements swordsmanship is powerful, but only one sword and other swordsmanship are indistinguishable, it is obviously more suitable for the five spirit root monks, she can't exert the maximum power.

The contradictions were entangled for a long time, and considering the Five Elements Sword Formation that she had obtained, Xue Ying finally chose the Five Elements Sword Technique, intending to pay attention to finding a way to replace the Fire Spirit Root in the future. Now that she had made up her mind, she decisively reproduced the five elements with bamboo slips, put them back in their places, and left the library an hour ago.

As soon as she returned to House 009, there was a "bang" explosion, Xue Ying was worried that something had happened to the little ant, so she hurriedly rushed into the house, there was a miasma of smoke inside, and ash was flying everywhere, and she coughed for a while before she eased up.

The little ant heard the movement and faced Xue Ying, it was originally black, only the teeth were white, and now the whole body was pitch black, fortunately it was daytime, otherwise I was afraid that it would be integrated with the night.

It scratched its head embarrassedly, and its voice was not very confident, "Xiaoying, you're back, I just failed the experiment, nothing happened." ”

Xue Ying saw that the house was in ruins, and her heart was on fire, but when she saw the miserable appearance of the little ant, she couldn't bear to dampen its enthusiasm for refining medicine, so she just said in a calm and comforting tone, "It's okay if you're okay, just clean up the house, how can you do experiments without fail?"

"Hehe, then I'll continue the experiment!" The little ant couldn't wait for Xue Ying to answer, and began to mix different spiritual liquid ratios together and tinker with them.

Xue Ying resigned herself to cleaning up the mess, sat down on the futon, and then put the bamboo slip on the center of her eyebrows, closed her eyes and began to comprehend the Five Elements Sword Technique. At this moment, in her sea of consciousness, there was a puppet villain dancing the sword, and the strange thing was that she could clearly see that the five thick spiritual roots in its body flickered interactively.

"Golden Dragon!" The golden light in the sword flashed, and a golden dragon roared and rushed out, moving forward with an invincible momentum;

"Thorns!" The sword seemed to have a life, and the thorns where the tip of the sword pointed were born out of thin air, and it was easy to 'draw the ground as a prison';

"Here comes the water!" the sword was no longer straight, but was bent in unimaginable arcs, twisted at will, like a ribbon fluttering in the air;

"Fire Phoenix!" With a "bang", a fire phoenix in the sword rushed out, and when it opened its mouth, it erupted a raging fire in front of it, blazing the sky and the earth;

"Earth shield!" The villain's right hand rotated, the tip of the sword drew a circle, and there was a gust of wind in front of him, and there were more sand grains flying up, like an earth-colored shield.

The wind collects, the people disperse, the sea of consciousness calms down, and everything seems to have never happened.

Xue Ying opened her eyes, "It turns out that the essence of the Five Elements Sword Technique is to externalize the spiritual root into a sword, giving the sword different attribute abilities, rather than simply and rudely injecting spiritual power directly. Even if it is a single spiritual root cultivator, who is infused with a single attribute spiritual power, how can it be as good as the spiritual root—the spiritual power that absorbs the spiritual energy of the origin of spiritual energy?

One sword is so powerful, it's hard to imagine the power of five swords when combined into a formation!So now, I can practice one sword first, and then gradually increase it. ”

"First brother, I'll go to the mountain behind the sect to find a vacant place to practice swords, do you want to go with you and have a barbecue by the way?"

"Ah, what did you just say?"

"Okay, you're crazy about experiments! I'm out for a while, don't run around!"

"Okay, Xiaoying, you go out!" the little ant turned his head and continued the experiment.

Xue Ying was dumbfounded, "In your heart, there is actually something more important than eating!"

——

The mountain behind the sect

"Yes, this place is empty and secluded, just practice swords here!"

Xue Ying took out the Fengyun Sword, and according to the way of the puppet villain communicating the spiritual root, she first introduced the attribute spiritual power of the golden spiritual root to the sword, and the golden color just flashed on the sword and disappeared.

"It's really not very easy!" Xue Ying tried many more times, and the results all ended in failure without exception, but she also discovered the law of failure, "The spiritual power of the golden spiritual root can only be drawn out a little, very little, and it is easy to mix with other attribute spiritual power, resulting in its attribute ability not being able to be used."

If I can repel other spiritual roots and spiritual powers, then this problem will be solved, and maybe I can try the method of rejecting spiritual energy that Master taught me!"

"Golden Dragon!" This time, the sword body was all golden, but the dragon head was blown away by the wind as soon as it came out. "It's really effective, the spiritual power of the golden spiritual root is much purer, and the problem now is that the spiritual power is insufficient, so we have to try to pull a little more spiritual power!"

"Golden Dragon!"

"Whew!"

With a dragon groan, a golden dragon rushed forward, gradually losing its life in the broken waist of the bucket-sized trees.

"That's amazing!"

"This woman's swordsmanship is not bad!" The speaker happened to pass by and saw the scene of the golden dragon's birth, and sincerely admired and admired, but he did not have the will to know and communicate, waved his sleeves, did not take away a cloud, and left this place in an instant, without even attracting Xue Ying's attention.

"I still need to familiarize myself with this feeling, and then transfer it to the traction of the other three spiritual root spiritual powers. ”
