Chapter Thirty Two Years
In the days that followed, Ning Tao returned to his small courtyard to practice as usual at night, and came to Senior Brother Yang's courtyard during the day to wait for orders.
A few days later, I met Senior Brother Yang coming out of seclusion. After telling him what he had experienced in the Mission Hall, Senior Brother Yang told him that the old man in the Mission Hall was not an ordinary person, but a Jindan elder from the sect who was about to die.
As for why he was given the skills as a gift, it was probably because of his affinity. He could practice it on his own, and then he answered some questions about Ning Tao's practice before sending him away.
Half a month later, Ning Tao wanted to open up a spiritual field and medicine garden in his small courtyard, so he went to the Miscellaneous Hall and the Merit Hall to exchange part of the spiritual stones respectively. After comparison, he found that the elixirs from his senior brother in the Merit Hall were
As expected, the seeds were relatively cheap, and they became a stable source of customers.
Senior Brother Yang told himself that he had already assigned the task of taking care of the cave, taking care of the medicine garden and the spiritual field, to the Foreign Affairs Hall, and arranged for Ning Tao to go and receive the task.
Ning Tao can receive ten contribution points every month. In addition to the ten low-grade spiritual stones and a bottle of medium-grade Qi training pills he receives from Senior Brother Yang every month, he can receive the equivalent of more than one hundred points in one month.
The income from a spiritual stone.
In Yaowang Sect, each foundation-building monk can complete tasks with a ten-point contribution value every month, which is considered an additional benefit for the foundation-building monks from the sect. Compared with the income of the sect, it is nothing but water.
Ning Tao, who had no worries about foreign affairs, concentrated on his cultivation. Apart from occasionally going to the Chuan Gong Hall and listening to the sermons of the foundation-building monks, he did not socialize with too many people except for some familiar monks. Slowly,
Faded out of sight of the outer monks.
Later, Ning Tao asked his seniors at the Hall of Merit to learn about the "Hunyuan Body Strengthening Technique" and where the necessary bone-forging powder could be purchased, and then he began to practice Hunyuan Gong.
Two years passed quickly, and another spring came. Ning Tao, assisted by a small jade pendant, and with the accumulation of a large number of pills, made rapid progress. His cultivation had reached the eighth level of Qi training, and he was about to reach the fourteenth level.
Although he is 17 years old, he looks like he is seventeen or eighteen years old.
Although his cultivation has advanced rapidly, Ning Tao is now shy and shy.
During the past two years, Ning Tao first formally mastered the art of alchemy and became a Huang-level alchemist. Later, he became proficient in refining the middle-grade Qi-training pills. As for the high-grade Qi-training pills, the success rate was not high.
However, the main reason why Ning Tao's alchemy ability has increased so quickly is that every time Senior Brother Yang started refining alchemy, he would ask him to help him and take care of him.
When Ning Tao officially became an alchemist, he gave Ning Tao a copper alchemy furnace that he had used as a thank you gift, which relieved Ning Tao's embarrassment of not having an alchemy furnace.
Ning Tao, who had learned the art of alchemy, sold the elixirs he refined through his senior brothers in the Hall of Merit, which greatly eased his financial pressure and allowed him to practice hard for two years without any distractions.
In these two years, a lot of things happened. First of all, Ning Tao took the time to go back to Daotongyuan several times.
Nowadays, there are not many disciples left in the Taoist Academy. About twenty Taoist boys have been sent to the Miscellaneous Service Hall, and there are still more than a hundred disciples who are still struggling in the Taotong Academy.
And Yang Song and his first batch of disciples have broken through to the ninth level of Qi training a few months ago. Yang Song has even reached the ninth level of perfection and has become the most dazzling existence among the disciples in the Qi training period.
Many Qi-training disciples followed him to guide him.
Ning Tao was the only one left who was still lingering on the eighth level of Qi training. However, Ning Tao felt that he was about to automatically break through to the ninth level of Qi training, and he did not envy him at all.
Because compared to Yang Song and others who focus on practicing Qi and practicing spells, Ning Tao is a practitioner of both law and body. Not only is he about to break through the ninth level in terms of Qi training, but he is also a latecomer in body refining and has reached the late stage of body training.
At the level of Dzogchen, the twelve levels of Hunyuan Jue have been cultivated to the ninth level of perfection.
This surprised Senior Brother Yang, who had always taken good care of Ning Tao, and suspected that he possessed some kind of body-refining treasure.
However, after Senior Brother Yang helped him do some research, he found nothing. In fact, Ning Tao knew that his current genius appearance was all due to the small jade pendant.
Help yourself to make rapid progress in body refining.
Nowadays, in terms of the quality and quantity of his true energy, Ning Tao is no longer much weaker than those senior brothers in the sect who have broken through to the eleventh level of Qi training.
If he breaks through to the ninth level of Qi training, coupled with Ning Tao's physical training skills, without the help of magic weapons, Ning Tao's strength can even be comparable to that of Senior Brother Yang before he established the foundation.
However, Ning Tao nowadays is all about lip service and cannot transform his whole body's cultivation into real strength.
Ning Tao, who did not participate in the sect's annual competition last year, plans to participate in the sect's competition in two months this year.
After all, every year in the sect competition, rewards will be given to the top ten disciples. In addition to the first place being rewarded with a foundation-building pill, the top four will be rewarded with a top-quality magic weapon, and the next five will be rewarded with a top-quality magic weapon.
A high-quality magic weapon will be rewarded.
However, there are restrictions on the sect's competition. Only disciples within the sect who are no more than thirty years old are allowed to participate. Otherwise, among the more than 10,000 disciples in the sect, the competition will be won every year by the senior disciples in the sect. These young people
The disciples would have no way to survive, which would not be conducive to the development of the sect.
Therefore, although the sect has more than ten thousand disciples in the Qi training period, many of them have gone down the mountain to get married and have children, and to seek a position in the sect's various residences, mines, towns, and mortal countries, which is lucrative and provides another way of life for future generations.
.
The sect is also happy to see this kind of scene. The Yaowang Sect has jurisdiction over dozens of mortal kingdoms, large and small mines, countless towns, and a population of several billion, so it needs a large number of low-level disciples to garrison it.
The presence of these low-level disciples not only greatly consolidates the sect's sphere of influence, but also provides a steady stream of blood for the sect's development, providing various training resources and disciples with reliable backgrounds.
Of course, there are many monks in the foundation building stage who have the same idea, but they are stronger than those in the Qi training stage.
Therefore, although the sect apparently only has 20,000 disciples at each level, it is not impossible to raise a low-level combat strength of 100,000 people in minutes as long as the sect calls for help, plus the clans and sects that seek refuge in immortality.
The system of the sect's competition is to divide a batch into three groups according to the ten-year cultivation period. The top ten will be determined in each group, and then the top fifteen will be determined in pairs.
After that, the top seven will be determined, and the remaining eight monks will compete in a round-robin battle to determine the final top three, which will be added together to form the top ten.
The top ten in each group will be awarded a bottle of the best Qi training pill, which is regarded as a consolation prize.
Nowadays, it is difficult for Ning Tao to get a ranking among the older monks, so he plans to use this small competition to increase his experience and gain insights.
Now, Ning Tao has a total of four magic weapons in his hands. One of them is a high-grade magic weapon that was awarded by the sect when he just started. At that time, he asked his senior fellow from the Hall of Merit to help pay attention to it, and finally chose a fire-attribute magic sword "Huoyuan Sword".
”.
One is a middle-grade Taoist robe as a reward when you first started, and the other is a copper alchemy furnace given by Senior Brother Yang. Although it is only a middle-grade magic weapon, its value is even equivalent to a top-grade magic weapon.
As for the last item, it is a high-grade magic weapon "Chongyuan Armor" that was just given to me by Senior Brother Yang some time ago.
Because Senior Brother Yang had just received a top-level protective inner armor from a master whom Ning Tao had never met, he gave this item to Ning Tao.
Ning Tao has always kept silently in his heart the care that Senior Brother Yang has taken for him.
As for the previous middle-grade magical sword, Ning Tao went to the Miscellaneous Hall and exchanged it for a hundred spirit stones.
A top-quality magical weapon of excellent quality is worth thousands of spiritual stones. Although the value of a high-grade magical weapon is greatly reduced, it is still worth several hundred spiritual stones. The top-level magical weapon is generally worth more than one or two thousand spiritual stones.
There are even tens of thousands or hundreds of thousands of spirit stones.
Not only that, after Ning Tao reached the late stage of Qi training, Senior Brother Yang also told him that when he reached the ninth level of Qi training, he would take him to meet his master.
Senior Brother Yang also told himself that the reason why he went to the Taoist Academy to serve as a senior teacher was actually to inspect Ning Tao's character on behalf of his teacher. Now that Ning Tao can guard against arrogance and impetuosity, he has officially entered the master's eyes.
I will take him to see his master and see his arrangements.
Not only Ning Tao, but also Yang Song and Pan Yue, there was actually a Jindan elder who liked him, and arranged for his named disciple to go to the Taotong Academy to conduct secret inspections to guide them to prevent them from going astray.
Therefore, Ning Tao also knows that although he can compare with some of the Qi Practicing Dzogchen Eleven and Second Level brothers in the sect, the strength of Yang Song and Pan Yue is not much different from his own.
Stronger.
In two years, Ning Tao has completely mastered the first two moves of the Lihuo Sword Technique, Flame Light and Fire Cloud. Ning Tao, who had just mastered the sword technique, experimented with the Huoyuan Sword in his hand, and a ray of flame streaked across the space.
A tiny hole appeared on the big stone in the courtyard, which was extremely smooth.
Ning Tao, who had no comparison, only knew that this sword technique was very powerful, but did not know where the limit of its power was.
As for the other sword technique "Fire Cloud", after using it, the bluestone was enveloped by a red cloud released by the flying sword. The flying sword shuttled through it, and the huge bluestone turned into a ball of red-hot gravel in a moment and fell down.
One place.
During this period, Ning Tao took the time to learn more than ten kinds of spells such as sword control, fire ball, vitality, sea of fire, poison ivy, water control, and rainbow.
Among them, sword control and vitality are the two spells that Ning Tao puts a lot of energy into. One is a necessary spell for controlling flying swords, and the other is a life-saving secret technique for recovering one's own injuries.
In terms of body refining, he has mastered the Hunyuan Gong, the Hunyuan Palm, and the full power movement, which is not much weaker than the sword technique that Ning Tao currently masters.
