Shen Luo made a gesture and the Pure Yang Sword Embryo he had set up emitted a bright light, shooting forward at lightning speed and arriving at Chang'an City in less than half a moment.
He used the art of bone-shaping to change his appearance, easily passed the inspection of the gatekeepers, and quickly entered the city.
Shen Luo did not return to Quchifang. Chen Gang already knew his residence there. Maybe there were other people monitoring him besides the Five Friends of Mangshan.
He came to the east of the city and bought a courtyard in Changlefang as his new residence.
After cleaning every corner of the yard, he walked around the yard. From time to time, a blue light shot out from his fingertips. He carved array-like patterns on the ground around the yard and took out a piece of fairy jade and inserted it into the array pattern.
A quarter of an hour later, Shen Luo returned to the center of the yard, looked around, and made a gesture.
The blue lines suddenly lit up, forming a blue light curtain that enveloped the entire yard, but soon disappeared again.
Seeing this, he nodded with satisfaction.
What he had just performed was a simple magic circle that he had learned from Chen Gang's book of esoteric arts. It had a warning effect, and he could immediately sense anyone approaching the yard.
After doing all this, he entered the inner room, sat cross-legged, and let out a long sigh.
He was able to successfully advance to the Soul Condensation Stage this time, and most importantly, his lifespan was greatly increased, by more than a hundred years compared to before, so he could practice with peace of mind for a short period of time.
However, Shen Luo's happiness did not last long. He suddenly remembered the impending demonic calamity, and his mood immediately became gloomy again.
Even if his life span is greatly increased, once the devil's calamity comes, even immortals and gods may perish, let alone him, a young cultivator in the Soul Condensation Stage.
"I can't relax. I have to continue working hard to improve my cultivation!" Shen Luo said to himself as he planned his next training plan.
Chang'an City is rich in resources and is a good place for cultivation. However, his aptitude is not high. Without external help, his cultivation speed is too slow. He still needs a large amount of resources like binary true water.
He had tried it before, and after advancing to the Soul Condensation Stage, the Binary True Water still had a great effect.
However, Binary True Water is extremely precious. In order to obtain it, apart from spending a large amount of fairy jade, one must also have certain connections.
As Shen Luo was pondering, a faint ghost howl came from him and a slight fluctuation of yin energy appeared in the air.
He flipped his hand and took out an object, which was the Qiankun bag. The ghost howling sound came from the bag. It must be the work of the general ghost.
The Qiankun bag is an evil magic weapon, which contains a lot of evil power. The general ghost stayed in it for some time and actually absorbed the evil energy in the bag, and gradually recovered from his injuries.
Gradually, the restrictions contained in the Qiankun bag and the sealing talismans could no longer suppress the ghost.
Now that he has successfully advanced to the Soul Condensation Stage, the general ghost in the bag is no longer useful. However, this ghost has the strength of the Soul Condensation Stage, and it would be a pity to abandon it like this.
"Xiao Maoshan is good at the art of exorcising and controlling ghosts. I remember there are some methods of taming ghosts in the Chunyang Treasure Book, which can tame ghosts and turn them into creatures similar to spiritual pets." Shen Luo's mind turned, he took out the Chunyang Treasure Book and flipped through it quickly.
The first half of the Pure Yang Collection is the Pure Yang Sword Art, and the second half records various secret techniques. It is very complicated. Although he has read it several times, some parts are still vague.
