The old woman returned to her senses, staring at Ning Cheng and shook her head and said, "I do have a basic alchemy jade slip, but I will not give it to you. I am not reluctant, it is for your good. Although you are well dressed, Presumably not more than twenty years old, right? You can cultivate to the eighth level of Qi Gathering before you are twenty. Although it is not a genius, it is not easy in Pingzhou.
With your progress, if you can leave Pingzhou in the future, coupled with your own hard work and some opportunities, you may not be unable to achieve a profound pill. If you have any thoughts, go to study the alchemy, I am afraid that you will only have condensed truth in your entire life. Dan Dao, it's not something you can learn if you want to learn, it's right to listen to me. "
Ning Cheng thought of his Xuan Huang Zhu, and said unwillingly, "Senior, I am sure that I will not delay my cultivation."
The old woman smiled indifferently, "Any monk who wants to make alchemy has this certainty. In the final analysis, the alchemy Dao and Qi Dao are for the sake of cultivation and service. If it is not to advance to a higher level, no one is willing to make alchemy. But all The people of "are blinded by this trail. Since it is all about cultivation in the final analysis, why not put all your energy on cultivation? If one day, if you look at the mountains and small mountains, and the alchemist dare not give you alchemy? Is there a refiner who dare not help you refine?"
When Ning Cheng heard this, his heart suddenly became hot. It was the first time that he heard people say that the alchemy way is a trail, and the instrumental way is also a trail. But he felt that the old woman didn't seem to be wrong. If one day, he looked at the mountains and small mountains, which alchemist would dare not give him alchemy
However, without the pill, how could he have a glimpse of the mountains? The fiery mood that I just woke up cooled down again.
The old woman seemed to know that Ning Cheng’s mind was average, and again said unhurriedly, “The truly powerful pill in this world is not made by humans, but is born and grown. If one day, you can find these natural places. Long spiritual things are countless times stronger than any pill. If you only rely on artificially refined pill to cultivate, you can't eliminate the erysipelas, and you can only be a second-rate person forever. Pills are auxiliary means of cultivation, not the goal. "
"Senior meant that as long as it is a cultivator, there is no need to practice alchemy?" Ning Cheng asked suspiciously.
The old woman shook her head again and said, "No, it's just that you are not suitable for alchemy. You are only a casual cultivator, even if your aptitude is against the sky, what about it? The prerequisite for alchemy is that you have a lot of spirit grass for you to practice. Fire and great opportunities. You don’t have the same thing. If you just go to practice alchemy for the promotion of Ningzhen, you are in the wrong direction. Come to me. However, I believe that at that time, you are no longer in the mood to do alchemy."
Ning Cheng sighed. He knew that the old woman was right. He only relied on Xuan Huang Zhu, and Xuan Huang Zhu couldn't give birth to countless spirit grasses out of thin air. It seemed that even if he wanted to refine alchemy, he couldn't pass this old woman.
"You come back to get the Qi Yao ice needle in ten days, I will definitely be able to refine it for you." Seeing Ning Cheng lowered her head in thought, the old woman directly issued an expulsion order without worrying about what Ning Cheng thought.
"Yes, the juniors are leaving." After Ning Cheng walked out of the old woman's bungalow, he put aside the matter of alchemy in his heart.
In any case, even if he is studying alchemy now, he can't refine the condensed real pill in time. If he wants to advance to Ningzhen, he must think of a way. With so many condensed monks, not everyone is an alchemist.
…
Ning Cheng didn't go to Mingpu Square to test the spirit root. He had to wait until he got the Qi Yao ice needle. And after passing by the old woman, Ning Cheng was no longer half sure of his cultivation base hidden.
He simply stayed in the stack, practicing his concealed cultivation technique.
Ten days passed in a flash. In these ten days, Ning Cheng not only corrected the concealment technique he received from the old woman, but also completely learned the new concealment technique.
On the tenth day, Ning Cheng couldn't wait to rush to the outside of the bungalow in Xiao Hutong. But when the door of the bungalow was locked, Ning Cheng was shocked, could it be that this old woman who looked the same as the predecessor would deceive him with little material? Is this absolutely impossible
"Did you come to Aunt Gongsun to get things?" A hesitant voice sounded at the door opposite to the bungalow, and Ning Cheng looked back and saw an extremely ugly boy with rolled lips and narrow eyes.
"Yes, I was looking for Aunt Gongsun. Where did Aunt Gongsun go?" Ning Cheng replied quickly. At the same time, he felt that Aunt Gongsun’s name was really familiar. He had heard of it when he was on Earth, but he also knew that they would definitely not be the same person.
This extremely ugly boy grinned immediately when he heard what Ning Cheng said, and then went into the house and took out a small wooden box and handed it to Ning Cheng, "Aunt Gongsun, give this to me when she leaves. She said, you want Everything is here, I hope you do what you can."
Ning Cheng took the jade box and thanked him, but he didn't understand it. He just asked Mrs. Gongsun to make a seven-yield ice needle. What can this thing do
Even though he desperately wanted to know what his Qi Yao ice needle was like, Ning Cheng still resisted the excitement and hurried back to his residence with the wooden box.
After returning to his residence, Ning Cheng first arranged a shielding formation, and then carefully opened the wooden box.
There is also a small crystal box inside the wooden box, and there is a mass of things next to this crystal box. Ning Cheng didn't care about the mass of things next to him, so he took the crystal box in his hand and opened it.
A thin needle that is almost invisible to the naked eye lies in the crystal box, and it is looming, seeming to disappear at any time.
"Good needle." Ning Cheng exclaimed, and he immediately understood that this was definitely a magic weapon of Qi Yao ice needle that exceeded his expectations.
Ning Cheng clamped this thin needle in his hand, and a feeling of refining came to his heart. Ning Cheng did not hesitate, immediately closed his eyes and began to refine the fine needle in his hand.
A day later, Ning Cheng opened his eyes again in surprise, and the thin needle in his hand had disappeared. The fine needles are already stuck inside his sleeves, and they are in full communication with him.
At this moment, Ning Cheng absolutely didn't believe that the old woman was not a craftsman. The level of this thin needle was higher than his flying sword. It was simply a superb magic weapon.
A person who can refine the best magical artifacts, can he not be a refiner
With joy, Ning Cheng even forgot that there was still a mass in the wooden box, and he kept practicing the Qi Yao Ice Needle spell with the fine needles in his hands.
It wasn't until he was very hungry that he realized that one day had passed like this again. Ning Cheng was even more surprised when he had this fine needle. Once against the enemy, he used the Xuanbing Thirty-Six Sword to echo the Qi Yao Bing Needle. Even a Concentrated Cultivator, it would be difficult to escape a sneak attack by him.
Today, he finally has some ability to protect himself. Ning Cheng became more and more grateful to the old woman, even if it was Ge Fei, Ning Cheng felt that he had more than the ten Qi-gathering stones. Even if it was given to two spirit stones, that would be less.
When Ning Cheng put away the Qi Yao ice needles and was about to go out to eat something, he remembered that there was still an item in the wooden box. He quickly picked up the group of things and shook a bit, only to find that it was an extremely thin inner armor.
Ning Cheng recognized it for the first time. It was a defensive armor refined from the skin of a one-horned dragonfly. At the same time, he also understood what was going on. It should be that the old woman felt that there was a lot of scorpion skin, and simply helped him refine an inner armor.
Ning Cheng took off his coat and put on the inner armor, feeling the comfort all over his body. I was even more grateful to the old woman.
Ning Cheng didn't lose the empty wooden box. In his opinion, it was tantamount to owing the old woman a favor. Originally, they could not give Nei Jia to him at all, but they did. At the same time, Ning Cheng also felt that it was not unreasonable for the old woman to say that he shouldn't learn alchemy now.
…
Mingpu Plaza is located on the periphery of Mingxin College and belongs to the area shared by Mingxin College and Mingyi Zhenguo. There is not only a huge square here, but also the most obvious spiritual root test site in the entire Mingyi Kingdom. If it is normal, it would take a lot of gold coins to come to Mingpu Square to test Linggen, but not a single gold coin in the past few months. All people can take the test for free, because these months are the time when Mingxin College is enrolling students.
The number of people in Mingpu Square has been increasing these days, and today it is even more crowded. Almost all the monks, as well as many people from Nanyuan City, have already arrived here. Because today is the day when the Mingxin Academy recruits disciples, as long as the spiritual root meets the requirements and passes the test, then you can enter the Mingxin Academy.
Ning Cheng followed many people into the Linggen Test Hall in Mingpu Square. Today, he had removed the monk's hat covering his face. However, under his deliberately dressing up, he looks even older, and even his beard looks a bit vicissitudes of life.
Because today is the day when Mingxin Academy selects students, there are not many people in the Linggen Test Hall. Most people have already tested Linggen.
Ning Cheng had seen the spiritual root testing artifact a long time ago. He walked directly before the testing artifact and said to the person in charge of the test, "I want to test the spiritual root."
"Put your hand on the groove, and get some infuriating energy." The person in charge of testing Linggen said weakly.
Ning Cheng didn't talk too much, so he directly put his hand in the test groove, and at the same time transported some real energy into it. Four thin yellow lines rose on the crystal column, and the four thin lines rose slowly, but did not stop. Ning Cheng had already taken away his hands when the four thin lines rose to three or four feet.
The person who tested the spiritual roots didn't care about Ning Cheng's small movements at all, and he lazily threw a wooden sign and said, "Four-line miscellaneous spiritual roots are eligible to go in."
"Thank you, what are my four spiritual roots?" Ning Cheng felt a little throbbing, and quickly grabbed the jade medallion and asked with thanks. Only he knew in his heart that he was clearly the three-line miscellaneous spiritual roots, and after more than half a year, he turned into a four-line miscellaneous spiritual roots.
The Linggen tester glanced at Ning Cheng disdainfully, "If you are eligible to be selected, you don't need to ask about these. I am only responsible for testing whether you are eligible to enter, you are just barely able to enter the gate of the academy."
The implication is that your spiritual root is so rubbish, and you still have the face to ask what spiritual root it is
