Chapter 165: Rewarding According to Merit
After looking at the platinum giant sword for a while, Xiao Mian turned his gaze to the other four places, and sure enough, he saw four spiritual energy condensed divine objects flying up in the sky in all four places.
The difference is that there is a yellowish-brown city above Houtuping, a huge blue round shield above Bibotan, a huge tree full of vitality above Changsheng Peak, and a ball of fire mist like a sea of blood above Yanzhu Peak.
The five divine objects seemed to have their own spirituality, sensing and balancing each other, and did not collapse as Leng Ningyu worried.
The five elements divine objects were so powerful that they appeared for only a moment and then gradually disappeared, but Xiao Mian knew that the five elements reversal formation had been formed and the mountain protection formation had been opened.
Seeing this, Xiao Mian breathed a sigh of relief but also felt a little regretful. When he looked at the Jinlingtai, he found that the platinum-colored small sword and the Jinlingtai had completely merged into one, and even the gap between the two disappeared. The entire Jinlingtai returned to normal, but Xiao Mian found that the gold-attributed spiritual power in the pavilion became more active and turbulent after trying it. The effect of practicing here might be better.
Shaking his head, Xiao Mian flew away from Jinxiao Peak while thinking about how to find an excuse to practice in peace at the Five Elements Spiritual Platform.
In the Bibo Cave, Leng Ningyu seemed to be in a very good mood because he successfully set up the Five Elements Reversal Array without spending 25 high-grade spiritual stones.
So when he heard Xiao Mian take the initiative to ask to guard the Shuilingtai of Bibo Lake, although Leng Ningyu was a little suspicious, he still agreed readily.
Although only the Tulingtai of Houtuping can stop the operation of the Five Elements Reversal Array after it is activated, it is not a bad thing for someone to watch the Shuilingtai, not to mention that Xiao Chuqing's residence is next to the Shuilingtai, so it is not a bad thing for them to spend more time together.
Seeing how much this kid loves Chu Qing, if Chu Qing's existence can make this kid devoted to the sect, it would not be a bad thing!
Leng Ningyu thought he had seen through Xiao Mian's intention to take the opportunity to get close to Xiao Chu Qing, but Xiao Mian was just happy that he could practice openly beside the Shuilingtai.
After that, Xiao Mian's practice place was moved from the quiet room to the small pavilion where the Shuilingtai was located. Although it was midwinter, the Bi Botan was warm as spring. Besides, even if the cold wind was biting, Xiao Mian's body would not feel uncomfortable.
After only five days of practice beside the Shuilingtai, Xiao Mian peeled off a ray of azure Kuishui Shenguang from the three-layer Dao foundation that turned blue due to the practice of Kuishui Shenguang. This speed was much faster than when Xiao Mian practiced Gengjin Shenguang in the quiet room at that time - although Xiao Mian's speed of practicing Gengjin Shenguang was so fast that Lu Chengzhi was jealous!
With the first ray of Sunflower Water Divine Light, the speed of cultivation seemed to rise to a higher level. Soon, the number of Sunflower Water Divine Light in Xiao Mian's body was no less than that of Gengjin Divine Light, but because it was generated so recently, it was still far behind in power.
On this day, Xiao Mian was handed over to the Bibo Cave by Leng Ningyu again. Seeing that Huangfu Ling, Fu Qingqiong and others were there, Xiao Mian knew that Leng Ningyu had something to tell him.
"The master asked you to come here today because he has something to tell you: the master plans to retreat for a period of time in the near future to seek a breakthrough to the high level of Jindan, and also to increase the combat power for the upcoming war. If you have something to say, bring it up today; if not, then retreat and practice in peace."
Leng Ningyu's words made Xiao Mian and the other two stunned: cultivation requires a natural process, and advancing in battle is a taboo. It seems that Leng Ningyu is also unsure about the upcoming war.
Seeing that the three of them were silent, Leng Ningyu continued to speak.
"Master, I will not be in seclusion for more than three months at most. Whether it succeeds or not, Ling'er, you must come to wake me up!"
"Yes!" Huangfu Ling responded respectfully.
"If there is nothing else, Ling'er, you and Qingqiong can take your junior sister down first. Your third junior brother and I have something to say!" After sending Huangfu Ling and others away casually, Leng Ningyu cast his eyes on Xiao Mian, and smiled bitterly for a long time and said: "I clearly feel the extremely pure water attribute spiritual energy in you. Don't tell me that in less than a month, you have already practiced the Sunflower Water Divine Light!"
"This..., then I won't tell Master!"
"You kid! I really don't know how you practiced!"
While speaking, Leng Ningyu's heart was mixed with joy and sorrow, and she didn't even know whether she was happy or disappointed.
Seeing that Leng Ningyu did not pursue him relentlessly, Xiao Mian had an idea and took the opportunity to say that practicing in the small pavilion where the Water Spirit Platform was located would promote the progress of the water attribute secret technique.
As expected, Leng Ningyu was shocked to hear this, and brought Xiao Mian to the Shuilingtai and entered the pavilion to experience it for himself. However, Leng Ningyu's face was quite disappointed. Under Xiao Mian's puzzled gaze, Leng Ningyu began to explain.
"The supernatural power here is probably only effective for cultivators below the Jindan stage, and it is of no use to me!"
It turned out that once the Jindan was formed, the true qi in the cultivator's body turned into true essence, and the Shuilingtai could only condense the spiritual energy of water attributes, which was not very effective for the Jindan cultivator.
Xiao Mian was quite disappointed to hear this, and he still fantasized that one day he would successfully form a pill and occupy the Five Elements Spiritual Platform to practice quickly!
"However, this place is a rare place for young disciples to practice, but the most urgent task of the sect now is the imminent disaster. If we can overcome this difficulty, I will definitely open the Five Elements Sect to recruit talents and revive the Five Elements Sect in South Vietnam!" As he said this, Leng Ningyu glanced at Xiao Mian, frowned, but still said kindly: "This time, your discovery of the Five Elements Spirit Platform can be regarded as one of the foundations of the sect. If I don't reward you again, I don't know how you will plot against me in your heart! I'm afraid you will be blaming me again?"
"Brother "I dare not!"
"What a good 'dare not', not wanting to! I know you are determined to refine the Five Elements Spirit Sword that even your master has not succeeded. If you can really succeed, it will not only be your business, but also a major event for my Five Elements Sect. If this Five Elements Spirit Platform can have such a magical effect, I can let you go to the Five Elements Spirit Platform for meditation!" After saying the words that Xiao Mian had been thinking about day and night, Leng Ningyu looked at Xiao Mian for a moment and continued: "This is not enough. Tell me, do you have any favorite things or exercises you want?"
Xiao Mian was stunned when he heard this. He didn't expect that there would be unexpected gains?
What happened to his master today?
If it is based on his usual temperament, it would be a favor to let him go to the Five Elements Spirit Platform for free to practice. Why is there another reward?
Xiao Mian didn't know that Leng Ningyu had been on guard against him before, and therefore, although Xiao Mian had made contributions several times, Leng Ningyu did not reward him with anything, so that Xiao Mian thought that the sect was originally like this.
Now that he heard that Leng Ningyu wanted to reward him, Xiao Mian felt something was wrong.
However, seeing that Leng Ningyu's expression was not fake, and seeing that she began to show an impatient look on her face, Xiao Mian hurriedly thought quietly.
Flying sword?
He already had the top-level flying sword, the Xuanfeng Sword, and even Lu Chengzhi's Xiyang Sword was no better!
Magical weapon?
The Xuanfeng Shield, which was re-refined by the scholar, was both offensive and defensive, and its defense was even more amazing, and it could even directly resist the attack of the Xuanfeng Sword.
Talisman?
Leng Ningyu gave him the last ice sword talisman on her body, and I didn't expect that there would be any high-end goods left.
Pills?
The pills he got from Yuanxu old man haven't been used up yet, plus the spiritual herbs from Li Mudao, there is no shortage at all!
Gongfa?
There is "Three Pure Ones Bible" for Qi training, "Ten Thousand Poisons Curse" for body training, and "Soul Separation and Soul Separation Method" for spirit training. Xiao Mian is almost unable to practice, what is the use of Gongfa?
As for the spirit stone?
That's even more of a joke...
With such a rough calculation, it seems that he has nothing to lack!
