Although the intelligent Yin Ning already understood the method of activating this "Spirit Gathering Array", for the sake of caution, in order to avoid mistakes, Yin Ning still took out a cyan jade slip from the lower grade storage bag hanging on the right side of his waist, which was one of the items assigned by the new disciples, and specially recorded the precautions that the new disciples needed to know and the jade slips on the use of some sect facilities, so that the new disciples could better understand and integrate into the Corpse Nightmare Sect.

Yin Ning put the cyan jade slip on his forehead, closed his eyes tightly, and released his divine sense to immerse himself in the jade slip, and soon Yin Ning found the use of the "Spirit Gathering Array" in an extremely large number of complicated information.

"That's what I thought. ”

Although he did the useless work of wasting time, Yin Ning was still quite happy, and in his creed, there is always nothing wrong with being cautious.

Click!

After a crisp sound suddenly sounded, Yin Ning accurately inserted a spirit stone into one of the several holes on the edge of the "Spirit Gathering Array".

"Although it is introduced in the jade slip that the more spirit stones are inserted, the greater the power of the 'Spirit Gathering Array' will be opened, but I only have two spirit stones, so I should save a little bit of use, use one first to see the actual effect of this 'Spirit Gathering Array', if it is ......"

Before Yin Ning could finish talking to himself, the magic circle inserted into the spirit stone was immediately activated, and after a buzzing and trembling sound, the original dull runes suddenly began to shine, and the light emitted was transparent and transparent, flowing like a glow, far stronger than the light of the fireflies emitted by the moonlight orb on the top, it was like a bright moon, and it was dazzling for a while, so that Yin Ning couldn't open his eyes.

However, these visions only lasted for a moment, and after a while, the dazzling moon-white brilliance gradually dissipated by itself, and wisps of mist visible to the naked eye began to float out from the runes of the magic circle, rising straight up.

"Sure enough, the aura that has gathered can actually appear in the form of a mist, which must be very pure. ”

After these fogs were filled, Yin Ning even took a breath, and suddenly felt that his pores were dilated and refreshed, and he immediately sighed secretly in his heart.

Yin Ning didn't sigh for too long, he understood that these mist were all generated after inserting the spirit stone and activating the magic circle, and he didn't want to waste a minute of time on useless feelings.

You must hurry up and cultivate in the "Spirit Gathering Array" for a while before the spiritual power of the spirit stones inserted into the hole is exhausted.

Yin Ning, who was thinking like this in his heart, immediately sat down on the futon, closed his eyes tightly, pinched the formula with both hands, and silently recited the mental mantra of "Qiushui Gong" in his mouth, and entered the state of cultivation. Immediately, all the thin spiritual mist seemed to be attracted by something, and began to move closer to Yin Ning in the center of the phalanx.

As Yin Ning's practice is getting deeper and deeper, the operation of the exercises is getting smoother and smoother, Yin Ning's body emits a huge adsorption force, constantly absorbing those spiritual energy mist, like a bottomless pit, it is difficult to fill, and in the end, the aura gathered by the "Gathering Spirit Array" at the bottom cannot catch up with Yin Ning's absorption speed at all, often those spiritual energy mist just rise, it is absorbed away, and the entire practice secret room is difficult to see the previous fog-filled appearance.

In this way, the entire practice chamber fell into silence.

A quarter of an hour passed.

Two quarters of an hour passed.

Half an hour passed.

An hour passed.

......

When the spirit stone inserted in the "Spirit Gathering Array" was dim, and the slightest crack began to appear on the surface, almost crumbling into slag, Yin Ning, who had been closing his eyes tightly, finally opened his eyes, and after exhaling a breath of turbid air in his mouth, the expression on the originally expressionless face began to change rapidly, first revealing a look of disbelief, and then a look of ecstasy, as if he had finally fulfilled his long-cherished wish.

"Yes! Yes! The spiritual power has been able to operate for twelve Great Zhou Tian, and I have entered the fourth layer of qi refining, twenty-eight months, it took me twenty-eight months to break through the third layer of qi refining and enter the fourth layer of qi refining, although it is said that during this period, my main thoughts and energy are focused on cultivating the "Xuanyin Corpse Control Technique" and condensing the 'Xuanyin Controlling Corpse Seal', but my cultivation qualifications are really outrageous!"

"The aura that I have just gathered by relying on the 'Spirit Gathering Array' is obviously so much, but I can refine less than one-tenth of it, it's really stupid! ”

After Yin Ning cursed a few words angrily in his heart, he did not fall into self-pity, and immediately set his eyes on the "Spirit Gathering Array" under him, and his eyes were full of brilliance.

"This 'Spirit Gathering Array' is really extremely useful for cultivating exercises and accumulating mana, but unfortunately it requires spirit stones to drive this magic array, and I don't have a stable source of spirit stones now, so this 'Spirit Gathering Array' cannot be used indefinitely. ”

Yin Ning got up and pulled out the spirit stone that had exhausted his spiritual power, and after a little hesitation, he gritted his teeth and inserted the last spirit stone into the hole, and after activating the magic circle again, he immediately returned to the futon in the center, sat on it, and began to enter the cultivation mode again, running the exercises.

"Let's stabilize the realm first!"

After Yin Ning gave up all his thoughts, he began to recite the mental mantra again, frantically absorbing the mist of spiritual energy that had just gathered from the "Spirit Gathering Array" below.

After another hour passed, when the spiritual power of the spirit stones inserted into the magic circle was exhausted, and the mist of spiritual energy gathered by the "Spirit Gathering Array" was very few, Yin Ning recovered from the state of practice without distractions, and his face was overjoyed at first, but it was soon replaced by gloom and sorrow.

"Although the quality of my spiritual root is inferior, if I can have enough spirit stones, so that I can always start the cultivation of the 'Gathering Spirit Array', then at least in terms of absorbing spiritual power, I am enough to compare with the monks who have a low-grade Xuanling Root, if I have the assistance of the elixir, the ability to absorb spiritual power can also be compared with the middle-grade Xuanling Root monks, but whether it is to open the 'Gathering Spirit Array' or buy pills, I need spirit stones, so how do I earn spirit stones?"

Yin Ning, who had tasted the sweetness of the "Spirit Gathering Array" to increase his cultivation speed, began to covet the elixir that was said to be able to greatly increase his cultivation speed, so that his obsession with obtaining the spirit stone, the general currency of the cultivation realm, became deeper and deeper, and he pasted the cyan jade slip that recorded the introduction of the Corpse Nightmare Sect to the new beginner disciple on his forehead, and began to search for ways for the outer disciples to earn spirit stones.

Yin Ning learned from the jade slip that the Corpse Nightmare Sect divides all disciples into outer disciples, inner disciples and core disciples, among which the number of outer disciples is the largest, and the number of outer disciples in the Corpse Nightmare Sect is about more than 100,000 people.

There are three main ways for outer disciples to earn spirit stones.

The first way is to learn a certain cultivation skill, make a finished product, sell it to other monks or sell it directly to the sect, to earn spirit stones, but this way of earning spirit stones is very unpopular, only a few people with talent can learn a cultivation skill and earn spirit stones.

First of all, Yin Ning, who has never learned any cultivation skills, can't confirm whether he has talent in a certain cultivation skill, even if he confirms that he really has an amazing talent in a certain cultivation skill, Yin Ning is powerless and does not dare to try, because even if the talent is outstanding, it is necessary to really master a cultivation skill and produce qualified cultivation items, it also requires hard practice all year round, and the cost of materials and time required is massive, which is simply not something that the current poor Yin Ning can afford, and he has no hesitation to implement it。

The second way is to turn yourself into a slave and a laborer, take on the task of the sect in the Meritorious Pavilion, or the private task issued by a certain sect boss, and after successfully completing the task, the spirit stone obtained is also very considerable.

Although this way of earning spirit stones is relatively easy, and the quality requirements for monks are not too high, almost everyone can participate, but it also creates a situation where there are more monks and less porridge, and the competition is very fierce, and it is difficult for a new beginner disciple like Yin Ning to win these tasks without a backer and a back door.

Of course, the so-called backing and backdoor to win the task, it is impossible to record it on the jade slip, this is all a small ghost, and Yin Ning's self-conjecture has seen people's warmth and coldness, but it is obvious that Yin Ning's conjecture is reasonable and true.

"I'm just getting started, I don't have any foundation, and I don't have any friends, Senior Brother Lu Xingcai is one, but I see that he is also very down-and-out, connecting with the new beginner disciples, this kind of simple but definitely not high-return task is accepted, it must not be very good, there will definitely not be any good way, it seems that he can only choose the last way. Speaking of which, Senior Brother Lu didn't deceive me, a new beginner like me, the best and only way to earn spirit stones was to hunt demon beasts and pick elixirs, but fortunately I joined the hunting team at that time. ”

The last way for outer disciples to earn spirit stones, of course, is the most dangerous, but it is also the most profitable, go to the hunting area designated by the sect, fight with demon beasts, kill demon beasts, get the elixir they guard, and use the materials and elixirs on the demon beasts to earn spirit stones.

In fact, there is no need to specifically remind and explain in the jade slip that Yin Ning, who has never fought with demon beasts, can also imagine how dangerous it is to fight with vicious demon beasts.

"It looks like it's time to strengthen it. ”

As he spoke, Yin Ning took off the two storage bags hanging from his waist, poured out all the items inside, and began to count his belongings to confirm his strength.
