Chapter Twenty-Eight: The Ice Needle
Then Lin Xuan began to cultivate the second spell, the Ice Needle Technique!
Although this was only a mid-level spell, it was quite special, as its power could even be compared to many high-level spells that could only be cultivated during the foundation building period.
In the cultivation realm, spells are divided into three levels, not to mention the low-level ones, so how to distinguish between the middle-level and the high-level ones?
Power?
Yes, but not all, in fact, the main criterion for distinguishing them is that what can be cultivated during the agility period is the mid-level spells, and the ones that can be cultivated during the foundation building period are the high-level spells.
Generally speaking, high-level spells are more demanding, and their power is naturally stronger, but there are exceptions to everything, and among the mid-level spells, there is only one special one, and that is the Ice Needle Technique!
You can also cultivate during the spirit period, but the power of the Ice Needle Technique is not inferior to some high-level spells, and it is said that some senior cultivators have also argued about this issue, saying that it should be classified as a high-level spell.
But I don't know what the reason is, this proposal did not pass, and the Ice Needle Technique is still listed as the middle level in the "Encyclopedia of Spells", of course, it is the strongest in the middle level.
Some people jokingly refer to the Ice Needle Technique as a "pseudo-mid-level spell".
You can cultivate during the spirit period, and the power can be compared with high-level spells, at first hearing, the ice needle recipe has a great temptation, and everyone in the low-level disciples should want to cultivate, but the real situation is not the case, there is no such good thing in the world, just like how much you pay, how much you will gain, although the power of the ice needle technique is the best in the middle-level spells, it is also famous for being difficult to cultivate.
Its requirements for mana are not too high, but if you want to practice, your divine sense must be very strong, because the so-called ice needle technique is actually to use spiritual power to condense the moisture in the air into hundreds of ice needles, each of which is as strong as steel, and then manipulate these ice needles to hurt the enemy.
Although each ice needle is small, it has to manipulate hundreds of them at the same time, and the requirements for divine consciousness are unimaginably high, and the practice is very hard.
For thousands of years, I don't know how many low-level cultivators in the spirit stage of the Dao have tried, but there are very few who can be practiced at the end, and before the foundation is built, it takes very tenacity and perseverance to learn the ice needle technique.
Lin Xuan's notes were written in detail, not only the cultivation method of the Ice Needle Technique, but also what the chair had said to them at that time.
Difficulties are in front of him, but Lin Xuan is not afraid, he doesn't dare to say anything else, for perseverance, Lin Xuan is extremely confident, the path of refining the heart is not only for cultivators above the foundation building period dare to enter, but he has endured the torture of the illusion.
The power of the Ice Needle Technique made Lin Xuan greedy, and if he learned it, his strength would make great progress, and he couldn't back down no matter what.
Lin Xuan began to cultivate hard, but the result was even more difficult than he imagined, in the first few days, there was almost no progress, even if Lin Xuan's divine sense was far stronger than that of a disciple with the same cultivation, but the cultivation of the Ice Needle Technique still made him suffer enough.
For others, it is normal to fail once or twice, and it is tolerable to fail three or four times, but if they fail seven times, eight times, or even more, they will definitely be disheartened and choose to give up.
It can't be said that they are impatient, this is also human nature, but Lin Xuan is different, he has a tough mind, he belongs to the indomitable kind, thinking that at the beginning, he did not have the ability to purify, knowing that it was extremely difficult for ordinary people to cultivate immortals, but Lin Xuan still persevered in cynicism.
Not to mention anything else, he failed dozens of times just by hitting the second layer of the Spirit Period, but he still practiced without regrets.
Therefore, in the first few days of cultivating the Ice Needle Technique, although there was no progress in the slightest, Lin Xuan was not discouraged, and he was not even in an impatient mood, and he continued to cultivate.
The chair made it very clear, although in the past ten thousand years, there have been very few disciples who can practice it in the spirit period, but there are always others, since others can do it, what can't I do?
With this kind of mentality of not reaching the goal and vowing not to give up, Lin Xuan cultivated hard, failed over and over again, but became more and more courageous, and finally, two months later, the ice needle technique was slightly successful.
Compared to learning the spiritual power shield, it only took three days, and the speed of mastering the Ice Needle Technique seemed to be very slow on the surface, but in fact, it was not, according to the records, not to mention the low-level disciples of the Spirit Movement Period, even if they were masters who had entered the Foundation Building Period, it would take almost two months to master the Ice Needle Technique, so Lin Xuan's speed was actually quite amazing.
The reason why he has such an achievement is that he is hard working and never giving up in character, and secondly, it is related to the need to use a large number of marrow cleansing pills every day.
Nine pills a day, one of which is still a precious Zhongpin Pill, the powerful medicinal power, not only helps to improve cultivation, but also has a lot of benefits for practicing spells, so it is not surprising that Lin Xuan was able to master the Ice Needle Technique in a relatively short period of time.
As the strongest mid-level spell, the Ice Needle Technique was also well-known, and on the day of its completion, Lin Xuan once again came to the mysterious canyon where only he knew the Dao, and quietly tested its power.
First of all, he chose a large stone weighing more than a thousand catties as the target of the attack, and then Lin Xuan began to mobilize the spiritual power in his body, he stretched out his right hand, and in the sound of stabbing, the white mist above the palm lingered, and hundreds of crystal clear ice needles appeared in the mist.
With a wave of Lin Xuan's hand, those ice needles flew over like boulders with lightning speed, and in the cold light, the hard boulders were riddled with holes and were beaten into a sieve.
Lin Xuan nodded with satisfaction, and then applied a low-level giant force technique to himself, pushing the big stone down the cliff, although this canyon is very hidden, and even if someone comes, he doesn't know that it is himself who leaves traces on the stone by casting the ice needle trick, but Lin Xuan has always been meticulous in doing things, and he can try not to leave any flaws if he can, and it is foolproof to push the boulder off the cliff.
After doing all this, Lin Xuan began to evaluate his ice needle technique again, to tell the truth, according to the description of the chair, controlling a hundred ice needles at the same time can only be regarded as a slight success, when the ice needle technique is practiced to the point of perfection, it is said that it can control nearly a thousand ice needles at a time, that is really overwhelming, it is difficult to resist.
Although fascinated, Lin Xuan was not the kind of person who was unrealistic, with the cultivation of the Agility Period, it was impossible to practice the Ice Needle Technique to the peak, not to mention that even if it was a hundred Ice Needles now, the power could be compared to some high-level techniques.
People must be self-motivated, but they can't be too ambitious, and now this situation has reached their predetermined goals.
