Chapter 44 Outlying Island
In the originally empty sea of consciousness, there is now an island that does not really exist.
The moment the island took shape, Li Zhirui's heart suddenly became much calmer, and some complicated thoughts no longer surfaced.
"Is this the benefit of visualization?" And this is only the first step!
Li Zhirui told Li Shiqing the good news. He was sincerely happy for Li Zhirui and told Li Zhirui his insights on cultivation.
"When practicing contemplation, you must not rush it, let alone delay your practice."
After warning him, Li Shiqing sent the man away and said to the empty room, "I don't know if I can see him achieve the Golden Elixir again."
Li Shiqing is already over two hundred years old, and the lifespan of a foundation-building monk is four decades. If he fails to break through the golden elixir, he will only have a few decades left.
"I hope Zhirui can break through the foundation as soon as possible, and then I can fight with peace of mind." The words gradually faded away, and no more sound was heard.
…
Time flies, and more than a month has passed quickly.
Daqing, who had successfully shed her shell, has fully recovered with the nourishment of a large amount of spiritual fruits and elixirs.
On this day, Li Zhirui took Daqing to an uninhabited area and said, "Daqing, cast all the spells you know."
Before the monsters broke through the golden elixir and transformed into humans, it was difficult for them to learn spells from the outside world because of their lack of intelligence. The spells they mastered were actually inherited from their blood.
Under normal circumstances, monsters can comprehend one or two spells as long as they break through a small realm.
"grumble!"
After Daqing responded, he began to cast a spell, and saw a ball of water gathering in his mouth. After two breaths of energy, he fired a water arrow. The power was quite good, and it directly smashed a large stone into pieces.
Next, Daqing also demonstrated many water and wood spells such as water prison, water shield, wood armor, vine control, wooden arrows, and entangled roots.
However, there are very few attack spells, only a few such as water arrows and wooden arrows. Most of them are spells used for control and defense.
"Thank you." After casting all the spells, there was not much mana left in Daqing's body. Li Zhirui quickly stepped forward to feed him a few spirit-boosting pills, and then put him into the space to let him have a good rest.
Li Zhirui sat on the ground, thinking about how he and Daqing should cooperate to exert stronger combat power.
"Since Daqing's combat effectiveness is not strong, I should learn more powerful spells, and then use Daqing's defense and control spells..."
Li Zhirui continued to improve his ideas, and he didn't wake up until sunset, got up and returned to the small courtyard.
Early the next morning, Li Zhirui once again took Daqing to the wasteland of yesterday.
"Daqing, we both have to train hard to improve our strength!" Li Zhirui said seriously.
As Li Zhirui's appearance and identity became known to more and more monks, he couldn't help but feel a sense of crisis in his heart, worrying that one day he would be targeted.
The last time he fought, he encountered a few evil cultivators with low combat power, but what about the next time? Will he still have such good luck?
In order to save his own life, Li Zhirui could only find ways to enhance his strength.
"grumble!"
Daqing responded without understanding.
"Today you will practice water shield and entangled roots. First, speed up the casting speed, and then increase the power of the spell."
After arranging Daqing, Li Zhirui also started to practice spells. All the spells he practiced were more powerful spells, such as ice blade technique, needle rain technique, and picking leaves and flying flowers.
I saw Li Zhirui making secrets with his hands, trying to condense the drizzle like needles. This is the basis for performing the needle rain technique. If even the drizzle cannot be condensed, or the amount condensed is too small, the needle rain cannot be used. The true power of the technique.
This spell requires extremely high mana control, so much so that Li Zhirui practiced it for several hours and even failed to succeed even after pinching it until his fingers were sore.
Li Zhirui felt that he was not far from success and did not want to give up midway. Daqing, who was practicing next to him, saw this scene and continued to practice spells with heavy steps.
Once again pinching out the secret, Li Zhirui suddenly had a flash of enlightenment in his heart. A ball of spiritual light suddenly appeared in front of him. In the next second, countless extremely fine needles flew out from it. When the spiritual light was exhausted, the drizzle of needles had already poked out the earth. A three-foot-square pothole was discovered.
Li Zhirui was overjoyed. After studying hard for a day, he finally succeeded.
But this can only be regarded as learned. If you want to use it in battle, you still need to go through hard practice, especially since his current casting speed is too slow. If he really fights with people, even if the needle rain technique covers an area It's not small, and the opponent can easily dodge it.
"It's been a hard day today." Li Zhirui pushed himself up and walked to Daqing, who was lying down from exhaustion, his eyes full of heartache.
However, as a monk, if you don't have powerful enough means to protect your path, you will one day become a withered skeleton on the road of seeking.
grumble!
Daqing's response was inaudible, which showed that he was really exhausted, but he had no intention of giving up.
Li Zhirui smiled, touched Daqing's turtle shell, and asked him to go into the space to have a good rest, while he walked slowly back to the small courtyard.
In the next few months, Li Zhirui and Daqing could be seen in the deserted wilderness.
One person and one turtle, from the beginning of training alone, they slowly began to cooperate in casting spells. Now they have a tacit understanding with each other. Daqing knows what spells to cast without Li Zhirui even opening his mouth.
"It's only on paper that you can see the effect. Only by practicing with a real gun can you see the effect." Li Zhirui looked at the vast sea, and he was ready to practice in the nearby sea area.
Although there are fewer water monsters in offshore areas, this is compared with the boundless sea. In fact, it is very easy to encounter water monsters dozens of miles away from Darong Island.
This is one of the reasons why Yunqingfang City can gather a large number of casual cultivators. If there weren't a large number of water monsters in the sea, how could it be possible to support so many rootless cultivators?
When Li Zhirui told Li Shiqing that he was planning to go out for training, he not only did not object, but also encouraged Li Zhirui to go to sea and improve his combat effectiveness through actual combat.
"I remember that there is a special demon hunting team in the city. You can find a suitable team. However, the disadvantages of such a team are also obvious, so you must pay attention to it."
When Li Shiqing was young, he also went to the outside world for experience. Although many years had passed, he remembered some things clearly.
The team members have different origins, and there is no deep trust between them. On the contrary, when encountering treasures, these teammates are the first to be wary of.
There is another situation, that is, the team has been established for a long time, and the other monks are very familiar with it. You are the only stranger. When danger comes, you will be the first to be abandoned!
Of course, there are benefits to teaming up with others for training. At the very least, you will be stronger and, until there is no danger or conflict of interest, you will be safer than being alone.
"Clan leader, I want to practice fighting methods in cooperation with Daqing." Li Zhirui said what he had not said before.
Li Shiqing frowned, but finally nodded in agreement. If an eagle wants to soar in the sky, it has to jump off the cliff many times. But if a person wants to grow up, how can he do it without going through experience and polishing?
Thank you for your great support
