Chapter 262: Small Breakthrough
Chapter 262: Small Breakthrough
"The technique that Chen Yun is practicing seems pretty good."
After saying something silently, he led the old man Chen Yun's soul out from the tree roots.
Although this old man is old, he has a strong aura, and the skills he practices are definitely not of ordinary level. His Lingtian Jue has only reached the yellow level, and in the Zhengyang Sect, it is only used by true disciples in the Qi Refining Realm.
Now that he has reached the foundation of cultivation, this technique is no longer enough for him.
Kung Fu is not like supernatural power. It is related to cultivation. Not only is it expensive to practice, but one must also be careful and cautious. Although it is not appropriate to change it in the middle, a good Kung Fu method also has certain benefits for breakthroughs.
At this time, Chen Yun's soul was already very weak. Lu Luan placed his hand on his forehead, trying to squeeze out the last bit of value from him.
After groping in his memory for a quarter of an hour, he finally found what he wanted.
"Guiyuan Jue is a yellow-level martial art that is close to the middle level. It is really a good thing. Moreover, it is moderate and peaceful, which is just right for people like me with mixed spiritual roots to practice."
After knowing the grade, a hint of joy appeared in his eyes. Although it was still low-level yellow grade, it was much better than the Lingtian Jue he practiced. If he could practice it, he would have more confidence in breaking through the middle stage of foundation building.
Mixed spiritual roots, also known as the five elements spiritual roots, have all kinds of attributes. Although they are not as advantageous as some special spiritual roots, they are stable and unbiased in cultivation.
"Ok?"
Just as he was sorting out the information he had just obtained, he suddenly felt a dull pain in his head, but it quickly dissipated.
"Oh, it seems that one has to be careful when searching the soul." Lu Luan frowned slightly, shook his head and sighed softly. He knew that this was the backlash brought about by searching the souls of two people of the same level at once. Even though the other party's soul power had been exhausted, it still made him feel uncomfortable.
But this is all within expectations and will be under control so it won't be a big deal.
All that needs to be done has been done, and the only thing left to do is the most important thing.
Looking at the two corpses floating in front of him, he opened his hands, took out the Soul-Swallowing Gourd, and with a slight thought, he sucked the two people in.
Then he started to practice the Blood Evil Technique and began to refine it.
Unconsciously, he had become extremely proficient in this method of killing people to practice martial arts.
These two are fresh corpses with rich essence in their bodies, so the blood evil energy refined from them is of extremely high quality, and the benefits to cultivation are obvious.
As time went by, more and more red evil spirits emerged from the gourd mouth and entered his body little by little. His cultivation level was also increasing day by day.
At this time, in a complex of buildings on an island in the Hanluo Sea.
Deep in the heavily guarded attic, the faces of several old men guarding the soul lamps changed when they discovered that two of the lamps had gone out.
The dozens of soul lamps in the glass cover were all from the people in the family who had reached the foundation-building stage. However, they tried every possible means to sense the place where the two people died but could not find it.
Lu Luan fled too far away, and the secret room in the retreat had a unique isolation effect. Under such circumstances, even a Jindan expert might not be able to find him.
……
Two months later.
As time passed, just as he had imagined, with the help of two corpses in the middle stage of foundation building, one of which was about to break through to the late stage, his cultivation had gradually approached the limit of the early stage of foundation building and began to touch the barrier of breakthrough.
The corpse in the gourd had long disappeared, and Lu Luan sat alone in the secret room. After absorbing all the bloody evil energy, he began to stabilize his cultivation. At the same time, he abandoned his original skills and practiced Guiyuan Jue.
During this period of time, he also searched the memories of the two people in the Zhou family. Although the skills they practiced were better, they were unique to the family and not much better, so Lu Luan did not dare to touch them rashly.
"Ok?"
As if sensing something, he slowly opened his eyes, and suddenly, a layer of chill filled the air.
It can be found that there is a layer of gray aura in the depths of his eyes! And his whole aura is different from two months ago. It is not only stronger, but also a bit cold and weird.
But in a flash everything disappeared and returned to normal, but now the temperament gave people a weird feeling.
"Brother, let me out now, I'm about to break through."
Xiaocan called out to him from within.
"So fast?"
Lu Luan was surprised, as it had only been four or five months since his last breakthrough.
With a thought, the Huangting opened.
Then a ball of flashing green light flew out from the chest, and after landing, it turned into a very fair, pink, and palm-sized fat doll.
This is naturally a small ginseng. Now its aura has changed completely from before, becoming more mysterious and ethereal. It seems ordinary at first glance, but very profound and unfathomable at another glance.
At this time, Xiao Chan was sitting cross-legged, looking calm, breathing evenly, and his lower abdomen expanding and relaxing.
What is most amazing is that there are six groups of gas of different colors swirling around its body.
Looking at the rising aura in front of him, Lu Luan said lightly: "It's really a good idea to let it refine the six qi. It has broken through to the tenth level of Qi Refining so quickly. It seems that in another half a year, it can really reach the foundation building stage."
Xiao Shen has been rooted in the cave for a long time, and he is naturally gifted in refining the six qi. Now he has to use dozens of intermediate spirit stones to buy spirit soil. With this series of assistance, it would be a shame if he couldn't make a breakthrough quickly.
Lu Luan stopped practicing and just watched the little guy in front of him break through. At the same time, he took out a mid-level spirit stone and placed it aside to release the spiritual energy in case of emergency.
Half an hour later.
The air in this secret room began to surge, and Xiao Can's body was mottled with light, like a firefly, and the few leaves on his head were fluttering in the wind.
When the breath accumulates to the limit.
"Boom!"
With a loud bang, six colors of light suddenly shone brightly and dazzlingly.
This little guy has made a breakthrough.
As Lu Luan waved his hand, the turbulent atmosphere in the entire secret room began to calm down. The fluctuations emitted by Xiao Can also quickly converged, and finally became completely calm. It looked like a stone, motionless.
After a while, Xiao Can opened his eyes that were as bright as stars, spotless, and saw Lu Luan looking at him with a smile, then he kicked his legs and jumped onto his palm.
With red cheeks, she smiled happily and said, "Brother, I have broken through to the tenth level of Qi Refining!"
Lu Luan held it up with one hand and gently rubbed its head with the other hand, saying with satisfaction: "Not bad."
"Ok?"
Xiao Can seemed to sense something, his brows furrowed, and there was doubt in his eyes. He tilted his head and looked at him carefully. Finally, he circled around him several times, as if he wanted to find out something.
Seeing the wrinkled eyes, Lu Luan asked in confusion: "What's wrong?"
Xiao Can looked him up and down as he answered, "I always feel like you've become a different person, but I can't tell exactly what's changed. I just feel like something's weird."
"A changed person?"
"Well, the most obvious thing is that my brother's eyes are a little different. It makes people feel scared. Look." Xiao Can said as he used magic to condense a vertical water mirror in front of him.
After hearing this, Lu Luan’s heart suddenly became heavy, and then he looked towards the water.
When he looked at his reflection inside, his expression was slightly stunned.
He saw that the man with a slightly weathered face in the water had eyes that looked like a wolf at some point. Although they looked normal, upon closer inspection, he could sense the scarlet and evil hidden in them.
Lu Luan felt a little dazed. He didn't realize how he had become like this.
"It seems to be due to the Blood Evil Technique. I thought I could control it, haha, alas, I overestimated myself. I almost became a demon without a sound. The magical power of the demon cultivator is really terrifying."
After seeing himself in this state, he suddenly woke up and sighed in his heart, which was unconsciously filled with chills.
Thinking back carefully, after practicing the Blood Evil Technique, his temperament has changed drastically without him realizing it. If Xiao Can hadn't reminded him, he probably wouldn't have known when he became possessed.
Xiao Can looked at him, grabbed his thumb and shook it, and said slowly: "Brother, are you sick?"
Lu Luan nodded silently, then looked up and sighed: "Yes, I'm sick."
He greatly underestimated the ability of magic to erode people's hearts. In fact, magic is like a mirror, which can magnify all kinds of obsessions, evil thoughts, greed, etc. in people's hearts, making people unconsciously immersed in them and unable to extricate themselves, and like him, they still claim to be sober.
This is actually the scary part of magic. It first changes a person's nature, and then drags the person into the sea of magic without them realizing it. In fact, many people who have been possessed by demons are also full of confidence in themselves when they try to practice magic.
"It seems that I can no longer use this blood evil technique. If I really become a demon, I will never be able to go back."
Lu Luan clenched his fists and whispered in his heart.
Then he looked at Xiao Can, stroked his head, and asked with a smile: "Since you have made a breakthrough, why don't you let me see what you are capable of now?"
"Okay bro."
Xiao Can immediately flew in front of him, with light flashing in his belly.
Then a mysterious force descended and enveloped the entire secret room.
Lu Luan looked at it with some anticipation.
"Brother, try to attack me." Xiao Can said to him confidently with his chest puffed out.
"it is good."
Lu Luan's mind moved, and five small swords floated left and right. As he changed his gestures, these small swords, as long as middle fingers, immediately flew towards Xiao Can with flashing sword light.
Seeing several swords attacking from all directions, Xiao Can did not panic. Instead, he put his hands behind his back, pretending to be mysterious and looking very experienced. In a flash, he appeared in another area and easily avoided the attack.
At the same time, he did not forget to challenge him: "You can't hit me, you can't hit me."
"Something interesting."
Lu Luan smiled, he was surprised, waved his fingers, and the five swords immediately changed direction, dragging their tails and chasing after them, and their speed was a little faster.
What followed was like a cat and mouse game. At first, Xiao Can could still dodge, but when Lu Luan understood its abilities, its attacks became more and more fierce, and soon he chased it and made it flee in panic in the secret room.
"ah."
"call……"
With the last sound of something cutting through the air, the movement disappeared.
Xiao Can, who was forced into a corner, was so scared that he covered his eyes with his hands and curled up. When he noticed that the five small swords stopped in front of him, they flew to him with a smile.
He asked with a playful smile: "Brother, how did I perform?"
Lu Luan put away the sword and nodded, "Yes, now ordinary people in the early stage of foundation building may not be able to catch you."
"It's because my brother bought me so many good things that I can make such rapid progress."
The little ginseng flew around him, with a look of joy in its eyes. If it hadn't been with Lu Luan, it might still be a wild ginseng in Haoyun Cave Heaven, on guard against being eaten by monsters.
He added: "Brother, I will try to use my ability to change your aura now, so that I can help you hide if you encounter danger in the future."
Lu Luan nodded, feeling expectant.
After all, Xiao Can is the one who truly practices the Six Qi, and his method of changing his Qi is the most orthodox, much stronger than him.
He wanted to see how far he could go.
Then Xiao Can closed his eyes slightly, and he didn't know what to do, but he saw Lu Luan's aura began to change, and there was a feeling that ice and snow melted and returned to the earth. If he stood in the forest, he was a tree, and if he hid in the sea, he was a fish, and people couldn't see any flaws.
Seeing this, Lu Luan nodded gently, thinking: "Although I have only broken through to the tenth level of Qi Refining, this feeling of merging heaven and earth cannot be felt even by people in the early stage of Foundation Establishment. If I can break through to the Foundation Establishment stage, and I restrain myself on purpose, then by then, even if I encounter people in the late stage of Foundation Establishment chasing me, I will be able to retreat safely."
"How about it, brother, I am pretty awesome now, right?"
Xiao Canfei appeared in front of him, staring at him with wide eyes, waiting for an answer.
"sharp."
Lu Luan nodded approvingly, and then said to it: "Try to use your ability to evade the flying sword on me."
"Okay bro."
Xiao Can started to move again, and soon, Lu Luan felt a pushing force on his body.
In the blink of an eye, his figure flashed and arrived at another location.
"Not bad, not bad." Lu Luan couldn't help but raise the corners of his mouth with satisfaction. "It is indeed mysterious and silent. It is much stronger than physical skills. Although it is not of much help to me now, with Xiaocan's foundation, I will be able to break through again in half a year. By then..."
A free and easy immortal in the foundation-building stage is secretly assisting in the body, giving the opponent an advantage whether in fighting the enemy or escaping.
"Brother, how's it going?"
Xiao Can asked with a smile.
"Very good..." Lu Luan naturally gave a long praise.
However, Xiao Canxian was still very happy, but soon the joy in his eyes began to fade away, and he sighed dejectedly: "Alas, but I am still too weak. I can't help my brother now. I must work hard to practice and break through to the foundation-building stage as soon as possible."
It knew that although its strength had increased, it was still not enough.
Seeing its appearance, Lu Luan shook his head gently and reached out to stroke its head.
Then the two began to talk.
After a while, Xiao Chan obediently went back to Huangting, began to digest the awakened memories, and continued to comprehend the six qi.
With the support of long years of experience, its talent in this area is much better than that of Elder Deer.
Lu Luan looked at his chest, then stood up and said softly, "Now that my cultivation has almost stopped fluctuating, and I have barely mastered the Guiyuan Jue, I can put it aside for now and see if there is a suitable secret technique to repair my physical body and Dharma image."
He planned to use the next bit of time to focus on practicing his physical body, as he knew this was the key to whether he could improve his strength in the future.
