Chapter 61 Outer Gate

By the time I fully understood the second-level mental method, half a year had passed.

With the help of her mental skills, her Thorn Technique and Creation of All Things have also entered the second level. She can summon more thorns, and can instantly create a thorn forest with a radius of five miles.

Moreover, it has been upgraded to iron thorns, which are harder than the original wooden thorns and have fire resistance.

Ordinary spiritual fires can burn for three days and three nights but they cannot burn through the thorn forest.

The benefits of entering the second level are even greater. She can now mutate more plants at the same time. She can also mutate first- to second-level spiritual plants, which can upgrade them to third-level quality. In addition, she can create things out of thin air in a blink of an eye.

Two or three types of mutated offensive spiritual plants are produced.

Instead of a single mutant spiritual plant attack, there will be more attack methods.

It's just that this is not Peach Blossom Valley after all. Even if Zhuzhu wants to try her own attack power such as flying flowers and green vines, she needs to find a remote place.

Or you can only try your skills in your room facing the wooden door of the bedroom that is full of holes.

Bai Ji, who was sent to Lihuo Peak to mine, was in a terrible mood at the moment.

He never imagined that the environment at Lihuo Peak would be so bad.

Not only is the spiritual energy so thin that it is indispensable, it is also as hot as a steamer here, which can literally melt people.

This is not the most intolerable thing. The most intolerable thing is that they, those who have committed serious crimes, have to work for eight hours every day and only have four hours of rest.

Every day was heavy physical work such as mining and transportation. After returning from work, Bai Ji was so tired that he just wanted to lie down in bed and sleep, and no longer had any thoughts to practice.

Unknowingly, more than half a year later, he was still in the state of Qi Refining and had no hope of entering the foundation building stage.

Now when he thought back to that time, he realized that the elder of the Law Enforcement Hall did not spare him for the sake of his godfather, but dug a big hole for him. He regretted that he was so stupid that he jumped in in a hurry. It is too late to regret it now.

.

If he cannot advance, he may spend the rest of his life here.

Day after day of overloaded work and harsh living environment made Bai Ji increasingly numb and desperate.

Unexpectedly, more than half a year later, Qi Dongheng finally came to visit him.

"Godfather, this place is simply not a place for people to live. I don't want to stay here any longer. Can you take me out?" Bai Ji burst into tears with excitement. When he saw Qi Dongheng, he seemed to see hope of getting out.

Looking at Bai Ji, who had lost a lot of weight compared to half a year ago, Qi Dongheng was both angry at him for not living up to expectations, but also felt sorry for him for suffering so much.

"If I can still think of a way to save you before the Law Enforcement Hall's verdict, but the head of the Law Enforcement Hall can't violate the verdict of the Law Enforcement Hall, the only way is for you to seize the time and successfully build the foundation before you can leave here."

"But the spiritual energy here is thin, and I have to spend more than half of my time working every day. I don't have time to practice at all."

Let alone building the foundation, if he stays here for another year, he might die of exhaustion at Lihuo Peak.

Moreover, his storage bag and belongings were confiscated before entering Lihuo Peak, leaving him with only a change of clothes.

Without spiritual stones, elixirs, and spiritual energy, building a foundation is simply more difficult than climbing to the sky.

"I'm here just to help you build your foundation." Qi Dongheng took off a ring from his hand and handed it to Bai Ji.

"This is a storage ring. It contains fifty middle-grade spiritual stones, three foundation-building pills, and two bottles of spirit-replenishing and rejuvenating pills. It should be enough for you to attack the foundation-building pill."

Bai Ji held it in his hand excitedly, as if holding hope. He knew that Qi Dongheng had not given up on him: "Thank you godfather, I will try to build a foundation as soon as possible to honor you."

Qi Dongheng looked at Bai Ji's thin face and sighed: "Pretty women are always troubled by beauty. Remember not to make the same mistake again in the future, otherwise I won't be able to save you even with all my face."

"Godfather, that woman has caused me so much misery, I can't swallow this breath. After I get out, I will marry that woman openly, so that she will not be able to escape from my hands for the rest of her life, and will be tortured to death. That's it.

The Law Enforcement Hall cannot interfere with other people's family affairs between Taoist couples." Bai Ji said viciously.

"Don't be stubborn. That witch is so smart that she won't agree to marry you. What if she stumbles you again..." Qi Dongheng didn't expect that his adopted son would still be thinking about her after being harmed so badly by that witch.

.

"When I go out, I will already be a foundation-building monk, and no matter how powerful she is, she will only be a Qi-refining monk. I have my own way to make her obey and vent the bad breath for us, father and son..."

Since Qin Ying was driven away, Zhuzhu has lived a quiet cultivation life for more than half a year.

There was no conflict between her and Han Luyao. Even if they met, they would ignore each other. Zhuzhu, who had no friends in Chenhua Peak, felt that such a life was good.

At least she can still talk to Huahua when she is lonely. Although Huahua can't speak, she can understand it. Zhuzhu can sense what it wants to say. One person and one pig communicate in such a magical way.

During this period of time, Zhuzhu also practiced [Spring Breeze Sword Technique] to the second level with the help of her insights from Wudao Cliff.

Nowadays, she practices swordsmanship for at least an hour every day. Although she only uses an ordinary second-level magic sword, she can make the sword energy move freely and horizontally, and the sword flashes like lightning.

Compared to more than a year ago when I first started, I realized that the small sword energy flow is more than a little stronger.

The medicine garden she managed harvested the third-level tranquility grass again, and most of them were high-grade spiritual grass, which earned her a lot of points.

This time, Zhuzhu did not exchange any skills, but returned with a bunch of spiritual herbs that would help strengthen the body, intending to make a medicinal soup to soak her body.

Help yourself to understand the second level of the physical training technique [Ice Muscle and Jade Bone] [Ice Muscle] as soon as possible.

This medicinal bath order was given to her by Chen Xuejiao. I heard that Wan Junzhen prepared the medicinal soup suitable for female cultivators for her.

Everyone can use it, so Chen Xuejiaojiao gave Zhuzhu a copy and gave it to her.

Not to mention taking the medicinal bath for more than half a month, the effect was very good. She could feel that her whole body was much stronger.

The muscles and bones have also been tempered. Although the bones still look slender, the bone density has increased and the toughness of the bones has improved a lot.

The skin seemed to be breakable by blows, but in fact, the first-level magic weapon could no longer leave any traces on her skin. Even with the use of spiritual power, the surface of the skin could not be scratched.

At the beginning of taking the medicinal bath, although the pain was like needle pricks at first, Zhuzhu gritted her teeth and persisted for three days, and gradually adapted to it. By the last few days, she could no longer feel the pain, and her whole body was filled with a feeling of comfort.

Every day I feel like my body is lighter than the day before.

She gradually fell in love with medicinal baths.

Unfortunately, the cost of the medicinal bath was too high. She spent more than half a year's Lingcao points to add some spiritual stones, but she only got half a month's worth of medicine.

If you want to take medicinal baths for many years without any worries, you must become an inner disciple.

Otherwise, after building the foundation, you can become an outer disciple and you can go out to do tasks or hunt to get rich points and spiritual stones.

The first kind of Zhuzhu feels that if she cannot get a high ranking in the foundation building competition and be favored by those true kings to accept her as a disciple, then she can only work hard to obtain the golden elixir within a hundred years.

So there is little hope.

But the second one was more confident for her, and before she knew it, she had reached the peak of the ninth level of Qi refining.

She is getting closer and closer to the Foundation Establishment. If she continues to practice in an orderly manner, she is confident that she can hit the Foundation Establishment stage and enter the outer sect within the next two years.

However, medicated baths for half a month are still useful.

Zhuzhu successfully understood the second layer of [Ice Muscle and Jade Bone], [Ice Muscle].

At this moment, even if he scratched her skin with a second-level magic sword, he could only leave a shallow mark. Even if he used spiritual power to stimulate the sword energy to break through the skin, it would not be able to damage her muscles and bones.

According to her current physical constitution, compared with other monks who have not practiced body training, she should be at the same level as the monks in the middle and late stages of Foundation Establishment.

Unfortunately, there was no way to test it with the foundation-building monks, and she couldn't be sure whether her estimate was correct.

At this moment, she doesn't talk about foundation-building monks anymore. Even if there is a monk who is in the Qi-refining stage to fight with her, she is very willing to do so.

However, the door rules for the handyman disciples are very strict. In addition to busying themselves with the tasks assigned to them, they are just studying and practicing silently. They are never allowed to fight in private.

The outer sect disciples have much more freedom. They can enter and leave the sect freely with their identity tokens, and they can also compete and compete at will in the various peak dojos of the outer sect, as long as their lives are not harmed.

Thinking of this, Zhuzhu wanted to become an outer disciple as soon as possible.

Zhuzhu has listened to most of the lectures given by the major Jindan masters. If she doesn't understand the rest, she can borrow books from the library to solve her doubts.

If she continues to work as a handyman disciple at Chenhua Peak, the gap between her and her eldest sister and Jiaojiao will become wider and wider.

It seems that we need to hurry up and enter the outer door.

Zhuzhu decided to abandon all distracting thoughts during this period, concentrate on her cultivation, and strive to successfully build the foundation within two years.

Thanks to two book friends [Gao Da Niu] and [Yang Yang] for their monthly votes.
