Chapter 76

Early in the morning, Ji Mingqing got up early, washed up, and chose the robe that looked the most proper when he put it on. After tidying himself up in front of the mirror, he patted his face and walked to the backyard with a serious face.

Bai Cangze had been waiting in the backyard for a long time. When he saw Ji Mingqing, he raised his eyebrows, then quickly collected his thoughts and said to Ji Mingqing seriously, "Did you remember everything I told you?"

"Of course." Ji Mingqing's eyes were firm. "First, close your eyes, then focus your spiritual energy on them, and use your spiritual sense to observe each jade slip."

"How do you choose the jade slip in the end?" Bai Cangze conducted the final YUｘ\Ｉ inspection.

"Choose the one that shines the brightest and is most closely connected to my consciousness." Ji Mingqing firmly remembered the process of Bai Cangze teaching him how to choose jade slips in the past two days. Choosing the innate immortal method is the most important thing. Bai Cangze also told him many examples in the past two days of how people had difficulty in advancing their cultivation because they did not choose a highly matching spell for their innate immortal method. Ji Mingqing was so scared that he did not dare to neglect it at all.

"Are you ready?" Bai Cangze looked at Ji Mingqing and asked.

"I'm ready!" Ji Mingqing clenched his fists, encouraged himself, and quickly went over the process of choosing the spell in his mind. After making sure that everything was foolproof, he closed his eyes and started with a little nervousness.

Ji Mingqing followed Bai Cangze's instructions and gathered all the spiritual energy in his body into his eyes. As the spiritual energy gathered, a different world gradually appeared before Ji Mingxing's eyes.

In the darkness, Ji Mingqing "saw" tiny dots of light appearing in front of him, mostly white and green, with a little bit of yellow mixed in.

Ji Mingqing knew that these were the lights emitted by the jade slips in resonance with his spiritual consciousness, but this brightness made Ji Mingqing eliminate them without hesitation.

Xiaowan and he had simulated it before. The light emitted by an average person's innate magic formula when it resonated with their spiritual consciousness was about the same as the brightness of a 50-watt light bulb, while the jade slips in front of him that had first extended an olive branch to him were only about the brightness of an electronic mosquito-repellent lamp.

It won't do if it's too far off.

Ji Mingqing used his spiritual sense to sweep these discarded jade slips aside. Bai Cangze saw that in just a short while, a batch of jade slips were scattered in the corner. After he collected all the jade slips, he felt satisfied.

It seems that Ji Mingqing has mastered everything I gave him, and he eliminated so many people in just a short breath.

When Cui Ding first chose the martial arts techniques, it took him about three times as long as Ji Mingqing, and at that time Cui Ding's range of choices was much smaller than Ji Mingqing's.

Soon, Ji Mingqing eliminated the second and third batches, including Bai Cangze, and collected them all. After about an hour, Ji Mingqing began to lose strength, and his upright body became shaky.

Seeing this, Bai Cangze suddenly felt a little annoyed. He ignored Ji Mingqing's current level and gave him too many jade slips at once, causing him to consume too much spiritual energy.

However, Ji Mingqing's current condition is similar to that of a trance. If he is forcibly awakened, although all previous efforts will not be wasted, it will have some impact on his condition.

Bai Cangze hesitated for a long time, but before he could make a decision, he saw Ji Mingqing's body shaking more and more violently, and then his legs lost strength and he fell to the ground.

However, Ji Mingqing did not fall to the ground. Instead, he was caught by a tall man with a serious expression. Even in this simple environment, his noble aura could not be concealed.

This was the second time Bai Cangze hugged Ji Mingqing. He subconsciously put his arms around Ji Mingqing's waist, and then with this action, he passed a stream of fairy energy from his palm to Ji Mingqing.

After Bai Cangze channeled the immortal energy into Ji Mingqing, Ji Mingqing stopped shaking and returned to his previous standing state.

After Bai Cangze's hand left Ji Mingqing's waist, he twisted it subconsciously. He frowned, looking intimidating without being angry, as if he was thinking about something that could subvert the fairy world.

In fact, what puzzled him was that Ji Mingqing ate so well every day and practiced so hard, so why didn't he gain any weight?

If you are too thin, you will not be able to protect yourself.

Bai Cangze's thoughts were disrupted by the jade slips that Ji Mingqing swept away again. He collected the jade slips again without complaint, and then a rare smile appeared on his serious face.

Only Ji Mingqing has this honor and has me as his protector. I wonder how he will react if he discovers the truth in the future.

Imagining Ji Mingqing's expression when he was scared by him, Zhang Ze's mouth corners kept curling up. At this time, Ji Mingqing's choice also came to an end.

At this time, there were three jade slips left in front of him. Even Bai Cangze could feel the huge energy contained in two of them. No matter which one Ji Mingqing chose, it would surely allow him to reach a new level.

But unexpectedly, Ji Mingqing threw aside the two jade slips that Bai Cangze was very optimistic about. In the end, what he held in his hand was a jade slip technique that looked mediocre, inferior to the other two, and even looked a little dull.

At the moment of choosing the technique, Ji Mingqing opened his eyes, and at this time, Bai Cangze belatedly realized that he had turned back into the form of a cub.

It almost got exposed.

"This is it!" Ji Mingqing gently stroked the jade slip in his hand, then held it up to the sunlight.

"There are too many scratches on it. It feels like it was scratched by some animal's claws. There is even a corner missing." Ji Mingqing looked at the jade slip in his hand, and then looked at the last two pieces that he threw to the ground and discarded. After comparing the two, he couldn't help but sigh.

"It seems like we are destined to be together."

At this time, Bai Cangze couldn't help but say: "If you are not satisfied with this, you can choose one of the other two exercises to practice."

"No need, I think this one in my hand is good." Ji Mingqing bent down, picked up the last two jade slips on the ground, and handed them to Xiaowan, "You helped me organize these, right? Thank you."

Seeing that he didn't even glance at the two jade slips, showing no sign of attachment, Bai Cangze couldn't help but ask curiously, "Why don't you change them?"

"Why change?" Ji Mingqing asked, "I think the one I have is very good."

"But it seems that the energy it contains is not as great as these two. The attention this technique brings you may not be as great as the two you gave up in the end."

"Is that so..." After hearing what Xiaowan said, Ji Mingqing became a little hesitant.

"Never mind. I decided not to change."

"Why?"

"Because he gives me a different feeling." Ji Mingqing lowered his head, a rare expression of attachment on his face. "I always feel like I can't leave him. The thought of switching to other techniques makes me feel particularly repulsive. Xiaowan, do you think this can be called fate?"

At this point, Bai Cangze saw that Ji Mingqing had made up his mind and would not change it, so he stopped trying to persuade him. Instead, he followed his words and said, "Indeed, this may be your future destiny."

"This is definitely the most suitable technique for me." Ji Mingqing was very confident for some reason. "Even if this technique doesn't help me much, I can always make up for it in other ways."

For example, you can draw more talismans and refine more formations at that time. This will be much more efficient than moving from the Stone Age to the Industrial Age.

"Okay." Bai Cangze put away the last two jade slips and began to ask Ji Mingqing questions about the jade slips in his hand.

"What kind of spell is this?"

"Let me take a look..." Ji Mingqing probed his consciousness into the jade slip. After a long moment, he came to his senses and answered Bai Cangze's question.

"Have you heard of the Spring Secret?" Ji Mingqing asked.

Bai Cangze shook his head. "No, but that's not surprising. Not everyone will make their innate skills public."

"Then I won't make it public either." Ji Mingqing said, "Not only will I not make it public, I won't tell anyone else. I've already chosen my own innate cultivation method, so that when I succeed in cultivation, I can pretend to be a pig and eat the tiger." Ji Mingqing smiled cunningly, "Then give them a scare!"

"Okay, I'll keep it a secret for you."

"Thank you!" After Ji Mingqing said this, he couldn't wait to continue reading the jade slip in his hand.

The beginning of the "Spring Secret" is quite impressive, saying that if one can cultivate to the peak, one can call the wind and rain, move mountains and fill the sea, and even bring spring and brightness wherever one passes. Even in extremely cold places, one can awaken sleeping creatures to life and use them for one's own benefit.

It is like being able to release spring anytime and anywhere, hence the name "Spring Release Technique".

If that's the case...

This technique really suits me. No matter where I go, I can farm! Calling the wind and rain is just right for watering, moving mountains and filling the sea is just right for digging holes. From planting to harvesting, it's a complete one-stop service!

Ji Mingqing was excited. His choice was absolutely perfect! This was his dream love secret!

Ji Mingqing couldn't wait to share his findings with Xiaowan. However, after hearing Ji Mingqing's analysis, Bai Cangze couldn't help but sigh in admiration...

What a waste!

Calling the wind and rain, moving mountains and filling the sea are not uncommon. They can be achieved after our ancestors reached a certain level, and wherever they go, there is vitality.

This kind of ability is equivalent to going against the will of heaven, and because this technique is recorded in the jade slip, it has been recognized by heaven. Isn't this rebellion allowed by heaven!

Not only he, but even his father and mother goddesses cannot do this.

Ji Mingqing actually only wanted to use this ability to farm! Bai Cangze couldn't help but recall what Ji Mingqing had told him before about his "descendants of Yan and Huang" bloodline. It seemed that this time he had to find someone to return to Ji Mingqing's small world to understand the situation.

I hope it’s not an accident, what he said is true!

"If I encounter a problem while practicing, can I come to you?" Bai Cangze fiddled with the sword in his hand, raised his head, and looked at Xiaowan with some pleading.

"Of course you can, but our skills are mutually exclusive, so I can't be of much use to you. You can ask Yang Yubei. You two are both wood-type, so you should have common topics."

"I'm a wood element? This is the first time I know this." Ji Mingqing looked at Xiaowan in confusion, "Am I afraid of fire?"

Bai Cangze: "...You are not a plant, you are just a wood."

"Oh~" Ji Mingqing dragged out the last syllable, "I suddenly want to drink milk tea."

It’s all Xiaowan’s fault. He talked about tapioca and it made him want to find some pearl powder to make pearls and then make pearl milk tea.

But since we've come to this point, Ji Mingqing smiled and stroked Xiaowan's head.

"Since you want to drink pearl milk tea so much, I'll make you a cup!" Ji Mingqing said with a righteous look.

Bai Cangze: "...that's fine too."
