Chapter 3: Body Tempering Technique, Complete!
Early in the morning, at Chaos Sect’s Spiritual Field No. 77.
"Old deer, farm!"
One man and one deer started to roll up their sleeves and get busy. Although it was just farming, they were full of passion! Soon, three acres of land were planted with magical rice. The speed at which the rice seeds sprouted was visible to the naked eye. In less than three days, a large area of green magical rice was swaying in the wind in the yard.
Ning Daoran wore a bamboo hat and stuck his butt out to check on the growth of the magical rice, like an experienced farmer.
A few days later, as the spiritual rice grew and matured, Ning Daoran's heart almost rose to his throat!
"Old deer, harvest time!"
In the harvest season, the man and the deer are becoming more and more excited!
After the new batch of spiritual rice was completely turned into rice grains, Ning Daoran discovered some details.
Perhaps because the planting technique was not sophisticated enough, most of the rice grains were quite dry, but some of the spiritual rice were covered with golden and silver patterns, and had abundant spiritual energy, especially the golden-patterned spiritual rice, which had such rich spiritual energy that it almost seemed to be flowing out.
At this moment, the system's voice suddenly sounded.
Ding Dong!
[This harvest yielded 124 grains of precious spiritual rice and 8 grains of rare spiritual rice, for a total of 204 years of cultivation time]
…
"Time for fine cultivation?"
Ning Daoran's head was buzzing. It was the first time he heard this concept. Could this be the new benefit brought by the five-point plant holy spirit?
When his eyes stayed on the time for intensive practice, the system prompted him that he could use the time for intensive practice to practice the skills, and the benefits would be equal to the actual practice of the skills.
"Ah? Is this possible?"
He held the rice in his left hand, raised his right hand slightly, and began to try to practice the Body Tempering Technique, pouring his intensive training time into it.
The next moment, an incredible scene appeared.
[In the first year, you tried to understand the true meaning of the Body Tempering Technique. Unfortunately, your cultivation aptitude was originally dull and you were unable to comprehend the profound meaning of the technique. After a year, you began to become discouraged.]
[In the third year, you shouted by the lake, "I must cultivate immortality, and no one can stop me." The frogs in the lake croaked, as if they were laughing at your incompetence.]
[In the fifth year, you sat there for five years, looking haggard, and finally a spark of hope lit up in your heart. At this moment, you seemed to have realized something. So this is the true meaning of the Body Tempering Technique!]
[Your blood energy begins to transform, your strength continues to increase, and your blood energy undergoes three transformations]
[Body Tempering Technique. Yellow Rank Lower Grade (Entry Level)]
[Time remaining for intensive practice: 199 years]
In an instant, a strong blood and spiritual energy rushed into his body, making Ning Daoran's body flushed red, and the explosive power continued to increase! "Finally got started..."
He shed tears of excitement and felt slightly ashamed of his own mediocrity.
Keep going! [In the 20th year, you have been struggling to comprehend the higher levels of the Body Tempering Technique, but the limitations of your own qualifications are like a curse that makes you unable to move forward.]
[You cry and laugh loudly, and in the eyes of others you look like a madman]
[In the thirty-sixth year, you walked the Body Tempering Post a million times, feeling upset. Some people can achieve great success by walking the Fist Post a million times, but you are totally incomparable.]
[In the fiftieth year, you have given up and planned to take a concubine and have children. When you look at your concubine who weighs 300 kilograms, a sudden inspiration comes to your mind, and you decide to practice immortal cultivation.]
[Your Qi and blood begin to burn fiercely, and your whole being undergoes earth-shaking changes, Qi and blood undergo six transformations]
[Body Tempering Technique. Yellow Rank Lower Grade (Minor Success)]
[Qi Refining Stage (Level 2)]
[Time remaining for intensive practice: 154 years]
Ning Daoran took a deep breath and looked down at his arms. After the six transformations of qi and blood, the firmness of his body was much greater than before. The blood in his arms surged and he felt his blood flow smoothly!
Moreover, my realm has also been elevated to a higher level, bringing huge benefits!
Next, I still have more than a hundred years to practice intensively and try to push the Body Tempering Technique to perfection!
[In the first hundred years, your Body Tempering Technique has not changed at all. You start to doubt your life again and feel that your cultivation is a mistake.]
[In the 136th year, your Qi and blood began to become deficient, and you began to look exceptionally old.]
[For the 170th year, you have always persisted, and even the ridicule of others cannot cause any ripples in your heart]
[In the 200th year, your blood and qi are burning again, and the Body Tempering Technique begins to cleanse your marrow and change your body. You can clearly feel the earth-shaking changes in your body. At this time, your blood and qi have transformed nine times.]
[Body Tempering Technique. Yellow Rank Lower Grade (Great Completion)]
[Qi Refining Stage (Fourth Level)]
[Time remaining for intensive practice: four years]
…
The fourth level of Qi Refining is already the legendary middle stage of Qi Refining!
Ning Daoran slowly breathed a sigh of relief, feeling the huge spiritual power and blood surging in his body, his eyes full of surprise!
"Old Deer, it turns out that cultivating immortality is so simple!"
He was so excited that his face turned red.
Planting spiritual rice, it must be sustainable! One man and one deer were full of enthusiasm and continued this exciting cause.
Ning Daoran consulted several senior brothers and learned that in this world of cultivating immortals, the skills are divided into four types according to the degree of mastery: entry level, minor success, major success, and perfection.
Logically speaking, perfection is already the highest level, but there are always people with natural talent who can find another way. It is said that there are two levels above perfection, but these senior brothers are also in the Qi Refining stage and don’t know much either.
Ning Daoran was full of passion.
At present, just the great achievement of the Body Tempering Technique is already so terrifying, and there is still a perfection to come!
Moreover, there are two more realms after perfection, which must be even more terrifying. Once mastered, perhaps there is even a chance to build a foundation! After all, who can waste two hundred years on a basic practice like the Tempering Body Art?
The lifespan of a cultivator in the Qi Refining Stage is only one hundred years, and even the lifespan of a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Stage is only two hundred years.
Immortal cultivators have been racing against their lifespan since the day they began their practice. Those who can spend hundreds of years on low-level techniques like Ning Daoran are pure anomalies.
Therefore, as long as you continue to grow spiritual rice, you will become stronger! ...
On this day, the last talent point of the Qi Refining Period was successfully exchanged.
There was no doubt that it was added to the command of all beasts, and suddenly two bells rang in his ears in succession.
Ding Dong!
[The first stage of commanding all beasts is completed. You can choose a spirit beast to sign a soul contract with, strengthen its body and erase its soul, and make it your loyal slave. Do you want to make a soul contract with the white deer? ]
This... He couldn't help but hesitate.
Should I erase the spirit of the big stupid deer? Once erased, it will always be my spirit animal, but I am afraid it will no longer be me.
In fact, Ning Daoran could feel the big stupid deer's dependence on him.
Every morning when he was half asleep and half awake, he would feel that the big stupid deer had also woken up. At that time, the old deer would always look back, and only when he saw Ning Daoran still lying on the straw mat would he fall asleep again peacefully.
At this time, a man and a deer were standing side by side on the hill watching the sunset.
"Old deer."
Ning Daoran touched the bald forehead of the big stupid deer and asked, "Do you miss your father and mother too?"
"Oh?"
The big stupid deer first called out suspiciously, then seemed to be recalling the appearance of his parents, and soon after, he gently nudged Ning Daoran's shoulder, of course he was thinking about it.
There is no mistake in the poem, post, content, and read the book on 6-9!
"good."
Ning Daoran smiled and said, "Then continue to miss them."
System, no.
…
Time flies, and the spiritual rice in the small cloud and mist formation continues to grow.
Suddenly Ning Daoran turned over from the straw mat, beads of sweat the size of beans dripping down from his forehead, and he suddenly remembered something.
There are rules in the sect that outer disciples must accept a mission and go down the mountain for a trial once every quarter, otherwise their monthly payment will be deducted.
Apart from anything else, the deduction of monthly payments is absolutely unbearable.
"Old Deer, we have to go out."
Ning Daoran washed his hands, changed into a neat outfit for an outer disciple, and headed straight for the Contribution Hall with the big stupid deer.
For the sake of keeping a low profile, Dabenlu stayed outside the hall, and Ning Daoran entered the hall alone.
There are people coming and going in the Contribution Hall, all of them are incredibly powerful brothers and sisters. Some of the brothers have a powerful aura and give people a feeling of keeping strangers away, while some of the sisters are so beautiful that they look like fairies walking out of a painting.
Ning Daoran quietly accepted a simplest task, then quietly went out, appearing to have no presence.
Naturally, no one would notice that he had broken through from the first level of Qi Refining to the fourth level of Qi Refining in a short period of time.
The task is simple.
The grandson of an old farmer in Qingniu Town was possessed by an evil spirit. It was suspected that it was a low-level evil spirit. This was very easy to do, as the evil spirit was very weak and any disciple who had already drawn Qi into their body could easily exorcise it.
"Old deer, get down the mountain!"
After receiving the task, Ning Daoran and Dabenlu went down the mountain excitedly.
…
Qingniu Town was not too far away, and the mission was completed smoothly. Ning Daoran could tell at a glance that the young man was indeed possessed by an evil spirit, so he injected a ray of pure spiritual energy to help him get rid of the evil spirit.
On their way back, the man and the deer passed by an extremely ferocious forest, which was shrouded in smoke and fog and full of miasma!
“Not good!”
Ning Daoran's heart suddenly started beating wildly, and a very bad premonition came to his mind. He hurriedly said, "Old Deer, evade the ground!"
Before he finished speaking, at the moment when the big stupid deer escaped into the ground, there was a "swish" sound of feathers, and then a sharp arrow shot towards Ning Daoran's throat like lightning, coming quickly and accurately! Someone attacked by surprise, and it was a fatal blow! "Me! Ni! Ma!"
Ning Daoran suddenly raised his hand and pulled out the half-broken Qinglong Spear wrapped in cloth behind him. The muscles in his arms and chest continued to burst out with red blood energy. The Tempering Body Art was instantly activated to the extreme! Under the blessing of the Tempering Body Art, the red membrane seemed to be on fire! Ning Daoran's body slightly tilted, and the arrow shot on his face was actually bounced off and refracted! "Puff!"
He had perfected the Body Tempering Technique, and his body was so strong that an arrow shot into his face only caused a superficial wound.
"Damn, such a thick skin!"
The man in the tree burst out in horror.
"Get out!"
Ning Daoran aimed at where the arrow came from, and all his magic power burst out. He instantly jumped up by stepping on a tree in front of him, and swung his Qinglong spear towards the man hiding in the dense leaves.
"ah!?"
The man with a broken eyebrow hiding in the leaves was startled and hurriedly raised his bow to resist.
“KANG!”
The bow tire broke with a sound!
This big man clearly has the cultivation level of the fifth level of Qi Refining, but he didn't even have the chance to draw his sword!
The second strike of the Qinglong Spear hit him on the head!
"Bang!"
The brain burst, blood splattered! In one encounter, he was killed!
"Not good, the third in command is dead, run!" A man on the left jumped down from the tree and ran.
"Old deer!"
The big stupid deer suddenly rushed out, knocked the man over like a sharp arrow, and then stomped on him for more than ten times.
Ning Daoran shouted and rushed to the other side, sweeping the Qinglong Spear across, cutting the other person hiding in the tree in half! In an instant, all three bandits were killed!
…
Ning Daoran began to search the corpse and took away everything useful.
After doing all this, he raised his right hand, bent his middle finger and pressed it against the tip of his index finger. As his nails moved, wisps of spiritual power rubbed out sparks, which in the blink of an eye turned into a fireball and fell on the corpse.
With the blessing of the magical talent, the flames rose up like an explosion, and the three corpses turned into ashes in the blink of an eye!
Ning Daoran looked at the flames, his heart beating wildly. Although he appeared cold and calm on the surface, it was his first time killing someone in the world of immortal cultivation, so he was actually very panicked inside.
