Chapter 70: Chapter 68: Second-Order Lower Grade Array Master!
With a sharp howl, Ghost Fla True Monarch, who had turned into a skeleton, viciously thrust a bony arm into the throat of the Huang Family Ancestor, imdiately exhibiting convulsions as though drunk with blood.
Suddenly, the blood and flesh of the Huang Family Ancestor were drained, his skin rapidly withering away.
“Damn it…”
Ning Daoran was horror-stricken. Too fierce. An instant kill on a Foundation Establishnt with just one look. Such an existence was simply unmanageable.
“Shangguan Daoist, run for your life!”
Ning Daoran took to his heels and bolted.
“Ah?!”
Shangguan Xing let out a loud shout and also cast a series of spells, splitting up with Ning Daoran and hurriedly fleeing for their lives!
“Hiss—”
From a distance, ca the long hiss of Ghost Fla True Monarch. With a swipe of his hand, he killed two disciples brought by the Huang Family Ancestor and imdiately gave chase in Shangguan Xing’s direction!
Ning Daoran’s eyes shone resolutely, lightly patting his Storage Bag, from which paper substitutes flew out in succession.
These paper substitutes kept exploding, turning into the appearance of n and won, a total of more than thirty individuals, all scattering in all directions. First, this could create an opportunity for Ning Daoran to escape, and second, it could also search for fortunes within the Ghost Fla Secret Realm.
After all, since he was already here, it would be inexcusable not to take away sothing.
…
Half a cup of tea later, Ning Daoran rushed out of the entrance of the Ghost Fla Secret Realm.
He cast an Earth Escape spell and left, with the Concealing Breath Technique, Invisibility Technique, and Sound Absorption Technique all activated to their highest state. He took to his heels and got as far away as possible!
Two hours later.
Hundreds of miles away, in a burrow tens of ters deep under an old tree.
Ning Daoran and Big Stupid Deer huddled together, shivering, with dozens of isolation prohibitions set up around them, believing that even if Ghost Fla True Monarch pursued them out of the Secret Realm, he would not be able to find them.
More importantly, Ghost Fla True Monarch had never left the Secret Realm for so many years, which must have been due to so kind of constraint.
Or rather, Ghost Fla True Monarch had entered a demon state in the practice of ghost cultivation and was completely a ghost creature, totally unsuited to the light of day.
After all, although Qingzhou was not large, there were still quite a few Golden Core Stage powerhouses. Once powerhouses like Old Monster Tian Hai and Soul-devouring Demon join hands in the middle Golden Core Stage, killing Ghost Fla True Monarch would not be a problem at all.
Ghost Cultivators in the world were forced into this path out of helplessness. Ghost Cultivators of the sa rank were simply no match for others; otherwise, Ghost Cultivators would have been as common as muck in the world.
“Ao ao~~~”
Big Stupid Deer raised its head and nudged Ning Daoran’s chin, indicating that big brother, you were almost scared to pee just now.
Ning Daoran coughed and said, “This is called being adaptable as a true man. Right now, we are rely in the Qi Refinent Realm. We grab whatever fortune we can, and run if we can’t handle it. Is it worth fighting to the death with soone in the Golden Core Stage?”
“Ao!”
Big Stupid Deer let out a cry, agreeing that big brother made a valid point.
…
Half a month later.
Ning Daoran and Big Stupid Deer hid for half a month. Feeling that they had probably escaped the crisis, they finally erged from underground. With a shake, he changed back into the appearance of a Chaotic Sect disciple.
He began to sense the aura of those paper substitutes.
In the end, it was too tragic; almost all of them were wiped out.
The murderousness of Ghost Fla True Monarch was too great. Almost all living beings that entered the Ghost Fla Secret Realm were slaughtered. Even though Ning Daoran had released many paper substitutes, only two survived in the end.
These two paper substitutes were high-grade paperfolk refined from Yin Chen Wood and infused with Divine Soul.
After sending out a Divine Soul signal, the two paperfolk ca rushing from two distant directions.
Ning Daoran was unsure if anyone was chasing the paperfolk, so he used Wood Escape again, hiding in a dense forest, completely concealing his aura, leaving only a trace of his Divine Soul to sense the location of the paperfolk, ready to make another escape at any mont.
“Rustle rustle…”
Another Ning Daoran appeared in the dense forest, also silent, only taking out a thick handbook from his bosom and handing it over.
It was a transmission of Array Path knowledge.
Sea Ice Array, a Second-tier Lower Grade Array formation.
Ning Daoran was overjoyed. With this, his advance to Second Order Array Master seed hopeful!
The inheritance given by Granny before was at most First-tier top-grade, and his Array Path had been stalled for a long ti. He had not expected to gain such a bounty from the exploration of the Ghost Fla Secret Realm!
He gently lifted his hand and took the paper substitute that had transford back into a paperfolk into the Storage Bag.
Turning back and infusing a bit of mana, it could continue to be used.
There was nothing more eco-friendly than this as a new energy source.
After a while, another paperfolk appeared, also in Ning Daoran’s own appearance.
As the Divine Souls were linked, there was no need for words. He took out a piece of withered wood from within.
“Ah?”
Ning Daoran shivered, learning from the paperfolk’s mory that this piece of withered wood ca from the site of Ghost Fla True Monarch’s body decay, possessed very strong Yin Qi, but seed to be dying. It was uncertain whether it was still useful.
Keep it, and decide what to do after bringing it back!
After putting the paperfolk into the Storage Bag, Ning Daoran summoned a green bamboo leaf, slowly ascending, taking Big Stupid Deer with him back to the Chaotic Sect.
…
At Qiongbi Peak.
The first thing after returning ho was to harvest the current batch of Green Bamboo Spirit Rice and quickly plant a new batch.
The yield of Green Bamboo Spirit Rice couldn’t be interrupted, as his accumulation of Refining Ti depended entirely on it.
Afterward, Ning Daoran gave so cultivation advice to Chen Weimo. After the guidance, he slapped his forehead in frustration, feeling that the young girl’s talent might be even worse than his own.
Chen Weimo blushed with sha and went upstairs to ditate and cultivate.
Ning Daoran went to the underground chamber.
After lifting all the prohibitions, he took out that piece of withered wood.
Since it was a spiritual object hidden by the Soul-devouring Demon in his place of ditation and regarded it as so precious, it must certainly be no ordinary item.
But this piece of withered wood was so dry that it could almost be crumbled into powder by hand, it was unclear whether it could still be saved.
“Let’s try…”
He pondered for a mont, placed one end of the withered wood into water, then circulated the Evergreen Technique, nurturing it slowly with the eleventh layer of the Evergreen Technique. Instantly, strands of the essence of life overflowed, continuously moisturizing the withered wood.
After a full half-month.
Although the outside of the withered wood had undergone no changes, a strand of vitality had erged within, and when Ning Daoran scanned it with his Divine Sense, he could see the roots slowly turning green.
Continue nurturing it to see what it truly is.
Another half-month later.
Ning Daoran finally saw clearly; this was not any ordinary withered wood but appeared to be the rhizo of a plant. After being nurtured by the Evergreen Technique for a full month, a tender sprout grew from the rhizo.
However, as the sprout appeared, a thick strand of Yin Qi emanated from the rhizo, carrying with it a hint of cold air.
Under the nurturing of the Grass and Tree Holy Spirit, another month later, the rhizo began to robustly grow, producing a small tree about half a ter tall.
The entire body of the small tree was silver-white, filled with an extrely rich Yin Qi, and was very cold to the touch, feeling like frost.
This was definitely not the Seven Killings Wood, which has both Yin and killing Qi. This small tree, however, co-existed with Yin and Ice Attribute Spiritual Energy, with Yin Qi so heavy that it could not be compared to the Yin Chen Wood from before.
Unless there was an accident, it similarly belonged to one of the Ten Great Yin Woods, just not the Seven Killings Wood.
Ning Daoran made ti to visit the Book Collection Pavilion, carefully looking through those books that ntioned Spirit Wood, and finally confird the variety of this small tree.
Mystic Frost Tree, one of the Ten Great Yin Woods!
Utilizing the sap of the Mystic Frost Tree to make top-grade paper, it was also ideal for the creation of Paper Substitute.
Ning Daoran was greatly shocked and decided that the planting of the Mystic Frost Tree must be kept secret, otherwise, a slight carelessness might lead to a life-threatening calamity.
…
Ti passed, and, surprisingly, news about the Ghost Fla Secret Realm did not spread.
The deaths of the Huang Family Ancestor, Transcendent Qingluan, Lady Linglong, and others seed inconsequential to the Cultivation World, and Shangguan Xing’s whereabouts were even more unknown.
It was only heard that with the Huang Family Ancestor not returning, the family’s two major branches fought over the family’s cultivation resources and both suffered heavy losses.
Afterward, they were directly wiped out by the Zhao family, which had three cultivators at the Perfect Qi Refining stage, but the Zhao family’s strength was also average and was soon eliminated by another Foundation Establishnt Family.
Cultivation Family, the pace of succession was just too fast.
To put it bluntly, Spirit Veins were like iron while Cultivation Families were like flowing water; as long as there was a Spirit Vein, naturally, it could give rise to several Cultivation Families, such happenings were no longer strange.
In the following days, Ning Daoran’s life beca quite leisurely again.
Aside from his cultivation, the Mystic Frost Tree was growing stronger day by day, Big Stupid Deer’s Transformation Technique was becoming more refined, and in addition, Ning Daoran decided to start studying Second-tier Arrays.
He made a trip to Qingfu Square, spending thousands of Spirit Stones to purchase various materials needed for the Sea Ice Array.
Chen Ping’er didn’t ntion anything about the trip to the Ghost Fla Secret Realm.
However, when Ning Daoran reappeared in Qingfu Square, her smile grew broader.
Then, Ning Daoran began his retreat to focus on the study of Array!
He had no doubt about his talent in Array Path!
…
Months later.
“Erging from seclusion!”
From deep beneath Qiongbi Peak, Ning Daoran’s suppressed roar could be heard.
Secluded for almost half a year, the Array had finally reached Great Success!
He lightly slapped his Storage Bag, and imdiately six Array Flags enveloped in frost and six Array Plates filled with intricate Array Patterns flew out; this was a complete set of the Sea Ice Array!
This was a Trapping Array, once activated, the Ice Frost Spiritual Energy inside the formation would erupt, turning all enemies within into ice bumps and could even make those at the Golden Core stage suffer a loss against such an Array.
“Old Lu!”
Ning Daoran took a deep breath, “Co, pay your respects to this Second-Order Lower Grade Array Master!”
“Awoo awoo awoo~~~”
Big Stupid Deer dashed over, kneeling on his front legs, looking up at him with admiration.
Big brother is aweso! Even sothing as complicated as a Second-tier Array had been figured out, truly brilliant!
“Hehe!”
Ning Daoran hugged the deer’s head, vigorously rubbing it, feeling great: “Tonight, we’ll slaughter a Spiritual Sheep and catch a few plump Spirit Fish, and invite Senior Brother Lin Sheng and Junior Sister Han Bing over for dinner.”
“Awoo~~”
Big Stupid Deer was extrely excited.
Ning Daoran went to the backyard fish pond.
“Little Blackie!”
He gently stomped on the ground, instantly the power of the Evergreen Technique surged out, covering the entire fish pond.
“Squeak squeak~~”
The Big Black Fish hurriedly leaped out of the water, its body exuding a robust aura, having successfully made a breakthrough, it was now a First-tier Late Stage Spiritual Beast!
“Not bad!”
Ning Daoran raised his hand, several High-quality Blood Strengthening Pills shot out!
The Big Black Fish opened its mouth to catch them, tail wagging joyfully.
The foundation was getting stronger and stronger!
Ning Daoran was sowhat complacent; both Big Stupid Deer and Little Blackie had advanced to the First-tier Late Stage. Just waiting for his own Foundation Establishnt, after establishing his foundation, he would help Big Stupid Deer and Little Blackie to do the sa.
A glorious era of a household with three at the Foundation Establishnt stage was about to co!
