Beast-controlling fairy clan.

Chapter 84: Choose another secret technique, and you will become stronger through hardship

Fei Shi Peak, library.

Since becoming the clan leader's clerk, Zhou Chun's visits to the library have decreased significantly.

I only come here occasionally when I have free time.

But that was not to read books, but to visit the [Qingmu Lingyuan] who was guarding the library.

The experience of using the [Green Wood Spirit Ape] to capture the Green Crowned Flying Snake gave Zhou Chun a lot of inspiration.

As long as you establish a good relationship with Zhou family beasts like the Green Wood Spirit Ape, it will be much easier to ask them for help in the future than to ask a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Stage, and you don't have to owe them favors.

However, today he came to the library to visit [Qingmu Lingyuan] just for the sake of convenience. His real intention was to go to the second floor to choose a secret technique to practice.

The "Five Elements Spiritual Armor Art" that he selected a few years ago, he has now mastered it to perfection and can perform it easily.

He had also successfully cultivated the "Lin Yin Chan Xi Jue" that he had obtained when he killed the bandit.

Now is the time to practice one more secret skill.

For things like secret arts, as long as you have time to practice, it is always better to have many skills.

In particular, the power of secret techniques is not like magic spells. It is not so easy to fix, and it will increase with the improvement of the cultivator's cultivation level.

The same "Five Elements Spiritual Armor Art", when used by Zhou Chun is only equivalent to a first-grade superior defensive spell, but when used by a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Stage, the defensive effect can be comparable to a second-grade defensive spell.

Therefore, after practicing the secret technique in the Qi Refining Stage, it can also be used in the Foundation Building Stage.

"It's still the same as before. You go up and choose a secret technique, then bring it down and hand it over to me."

Inside the library, Zhou Daoquan opened the barrier leading to the second floor, then waved his hand, signaling Zhou Chun to go up by himself.

Unexpectedly, after hearing what he said, Zhou Chun did not rush to go up.

Instead, he bowed and said, "Elder, please understand. When I represented my family to participate in the five major immortal cultivation families' martial arts competition, I was rewarded with an opportunity to choose a secret technique. After being promoted to a core member of the family, I will also be given an opportunity to choose a secret technique. So this time, I want to choose two secret techniques at once!"

"Pick two secret techniques at once? Do you have that much time to practice?"

Zhou Daoquan was slightly stunned and looked at Zhou Chun in surprise, somewhat surprised by his words.

Zhou Chun had expected him to ask this question, and answered immediately: "I no longer have to do all kinds of chores, and I have gradually become familiar with the procedures for handling various family affairs. The time I can use for cultivation every day should still be enough to support the cultivation of two secret arts."

When Zhou Daoquan heard this, he looked at him with a gleam in his eyes and shouted, "Good boy, it seems that you are really that material!"

Then he waved his sleeves and said, "Okay, then I will allow you to choose two secret techniques to practice."

"Thank you, elder."

Zhou Chun thanked him and immediately went upstairs.

Not long after, he came downstairs with two selected secret techniques.

The last time Zhou Chun chose "Five Elements Spiritual Armor Technique" was because he lacked sufficient defensive means.

The two secret techniques he chose this time were both to enhance his own offensive capabilities.

"Xin Jin Sword Qi" is a secret art of attack. It can be practiced only if one's spiritual roots possess gold attribute. It is divided into two levels. After mastering the first level, one can condense a Xin Jin spiritual power in the Taiyin lung meridian of the right hand, which can be used to break through the body in the form of sword energy to attack the enemy. After mastering the second level, one can condense another Xin Jin spiritual power in the Taiyin lung meridian of the left hand.

"The Art of Burning Blood and Transforming Spirits" is an auxiliary secret technique. After successful practice, it can transform one's own blood essence into magic power.

"Who are you going to fight to the death with? Why did you choose these two secret techniques?"

After Zhou Daoquan saw the two secret techniques that Zhou Chun brought down, he couldn't help but roll his eyes, looked at him with a look of confusion and asked.

No wonder he didn't understand.

Because these two secret techniques will hurt yourself before hurting others.

Needless to say, the "Art of Burning Blood and Transforming into Spirits" is that the burned blood of a cultivator is very difficult to recover. If it is burned too much, not only will his life be in danger, but even if he survives by chance, his lifespan will be greatly shortened.

In order to successfully practice the secret technique "Xin Jin Sword Qi" and make it more powerful, one needs to use secret methods to absorb the five elements of gold in the spiritual gold of the ore veins and transform it into the power of Taibai Xin Jin.

This process will not only produce severe pain, but the practitioner will have to endure the pain like being tortured by slow slicing at all times. If one is not careful, the meridians in the right hand may be damaged. In serious cases, it may even leave injuries that are difficult to heal for the rest of one's life.

And the most frightening thing about this secret technique is that every time it is used, if one wants to condense the power of Taibai Xinjin in the arms again, one must endure the pain of being attacked by the gold energy again.

Although, most cultivators can endure hardships that ordinary people cannot endure in order to become stronger.

But for someone like Zhou Chun who is already far ahead of his peers, there is no need for him to suffer like this!
So Zhou Daoquan didn’t understand.

Seeing this, Zhou Chun could only explain: "The elder has misunderstood. The reason why I chose these two secret techniques is because I value their life-saving and reversal effects in certain emergency situations."

"Compared to my own life, what does a little suffering mean?"

At the end of his speech, a look of determination appeared on his face.

He is not afraid of hardship.

As long as you can become stronger through suffering, that's fine!

However, after hearing his words, Zhou Daoquan's expression suddenly became strange.

"What's a little suffering?"

Zhou Daoquan repeated Zhou Chun's words in a strange tone, then looked at him with a half-smile and said, "I hope you can still think this way after you start practicing!"

Such behavior made Zhou Chun feel a little uneasy, and he began to doubt whether he had made the right choice.

But he quickly cleared his mind and became determined again.

No pain No gain!
Zhou Chun believes that he can do it!
After the two secret techniques were determined, Zhou Daoquan allowed him to take the copy of the secret technique back to study and practice, considering that he needed to be based at Pagoda Peak to work permanently.

However, if he wanted to leave Jiufengling, he had to send the secret manuscript back to the library first to avoid losing it if something unexpected happened outside.

This kind of behavior of opening the door to convenience is obviously because his current status and position are different from before.

Zhou Chun himself was also very clear about this.

Therefore, after thanking Zhou Daoquan again and again, he returned to Pagoda Peak with satisfaction, taking the secret manuscript with him.

Not long after, when Zhou Chun began to try to practice "Xin Jin Sword Qi", he finally understood what Zhou Daoquan meant.

Because he had just started practicing this secret technique, he only used it slightly to absorb some of the gold energy contained in the ordinary iron.

But even so, the continuous needle-like pain after the golden energy entered his body made the veins on his forehead throb and he broke out in cold sweat.

After gritting his teeth and persevering for a while, he finally couldn't bear it anymore and stopped practicing.

For a period of time afterwards, Zhou Chun tried to practice the secret art of Xinjin Sword Qi every day, but he was unable to complete a normal round of practice every day. Many times he felt so much pain that he even had the idea of ​​giving up after his meridians were injured by the gold qi twice.

However, when he thought about how difficult it was to obtain the secret technique, as well as the records of the power of the secret technique in the classics, and the words of the third elder Zhou Daoquan at the time, Zhou Chun still gritted his teeth and persevered.

He has already made such a big promise. If he gives up now, wouldn't that be slapping himself in the face?

Furthermore, if I give up practicing this secret technique, doesn't it mean that I cannot endure hardship?

If he can't endure the hardships that ordinary people can't endure, how can he make the elders of his family believe that he can do things that ordinary people can't do and become a superior person?
Whether for the sake of face or for the sake of substance, Zhou Chun had no choice but to grit his teeth and persevere.

He must master the secret technique of "Xin Jin Sword Qi"!
Hard work pays off. After two or three months of suffering, Zhou Chun finally got used to the pain of the golden energy entering his body.

The Taiyin Lung Meridian on his right hand became stronger after repeated injuries and recoveries, and was gradually able to accommodate the gold energy.

At this time, he finally completed a round of secret practice and successfully sealed the absorbed gold energy in the Taiyin Lung Meridian of his right hand.

As the saying goes, all things are difficult at the beginning. After you succeed for the first time, it will be much easier to successfully complete the practice in the future.

In order to keep it secret, no one else knew about Zhou Chun's practice of "Xin Jin Sword Qi" except the clan leader Zhou Daoyi and the third elder Zhou Daoquan.

After successfully practicing this secret technique, it will become his greatest killer weapon!

Spring goes and winter comes, flowers bloom and fall.

In the blink of an eye, seven years have passed since Zhou Chun came into this world.

Seven years have passed, and he has completely integrated into this world and thoroughly regarded himself as a member of this world.

Now his every word, action, and gesture are not much different from those of a native of this world.

The Zhou family's cultivators have also completely adapted to his present self, and no one cares about what he was like before.

Seven years passed, and Zhou Chun was 28 years old. His cultivation level had broken through from the sixth level of Qi Refining to the tenth level of Qi Refining.

Zhou Chun advanced four levels in seven years. His cultivation speed surprised many Zhou family cultivators.

However, those who really know the inside story will not be surprised.

Because this speed is completely based on the premise of a large amount of pills piled up.

However, because Zhou Chun has taken too many medicinal pills in recent years, he now clearly feels that the effectiveness of the pills has decreased and he has developed a serious drug resistance.

Therefore, if he doesn't want to waste the pills, he might have to stop taking them.

Otherwise, if the body's drug resistance is too high, when taking the Foundation Building Pill to break through the Foundation Building level in the future, the efficacy of the Foundation Building Pill will be affected and greatly reduced. That is a typical case of losing the big picture for the small.

On this day, Zhou Chun was invited to the home of his tenth brother Zhou Zhengyong to witness him testing the spiritual root qualifications of his eldest son.

Just over half a year ago, Zhou Zhengyong's Taoist partner Sun Yujiao successfully gave birth to a big fat boy, whose nickname was Lan'er.

The reason why it is only given a nickname now is because the spiritual root aptitude has not been tested yet.

The Zhou family is a family of immortal cultivators, and the Zhou family’s generation names are only used by immortal cultivators.

Only if Zhou Zhengyong's son has spiritual roots can he be given a name with a generation character.

Otherwise, just pick a random name.

Testing spiritual root qualifications is like opening a blind box. No one knows what is inside before the box is opened.

Zhou Zhengyong and his wife both felt that if only the two of them were present, something might happen, so they wanted to invite a close friend to witness it.

In addition, according to Zhou Zhengyong, Zhou Chun is currently in good fortune, and if he is present, his son might be able to share some good luck.

Zhou Chun naturally would not refuse such a thing.

When he arrived at Zhou Zhengyong's house, Sun Yujiao coaxed her son to sleep soon.

Then, looking at the sleeping baby, Zhou Zhengyong and his wife, with nervous expressions, just looked at each other and did nothing for a long time.

"Why don't you come, Thirteenth Brother?"

Zhou Zhengyong shook his head and looked at Zhou Chun with a conflicted look on his face.

As a father, he naturally wanted to test his son's spiritual roots himself.

But he was also afraid that if the test results were not satisfactory, he would regret it for the rest of his life.

So I was confused at this time.

"Brother Yong, you are making things difficult for me!"

Zhou Chun smiled bitterly, shook his head and said, "I can help you with other things, but as the father of the child, Brother Yong, it is most appropriate for you to do this yourself."

As soon as the words fell, Sun Yujiao beside him also nodded and said: "Thirteenth brother is right, husband, don't hesitate, haven't we agreed on it a long time ago? Whether it is good or bad, you have to accept it calmly!"

The words of his good brother and his wife seemed to give Zhou Zhengyong confidence and courage.

After a brief hesitation, he nodded heavily and said, "Okay, I'll do it then!"

Then he did not hesitate any more, and immediately made hand gestures and performed the "Spirit Testing Technique" which was specifically designed to test one's spiritual roots and aptitude.

Although this "Spirit Testing Technique" has only one function, it is a true first-class, top-grade spell.

If Zhou Zhengyong had not broken through to the ninth level of Qi Refining last year, he would not have been able to perform this spell.

At this moment, as Zhou Zhengyong pinched his fingers and a magic ball composed of countless white runes condensed and appeared in his hands, and then he swung his hand and shot it into the body of the baby in the cradle on the table.

Wow! !

The baby in his sleep seemed to sense something and suddenly let out a loud cry.

But at this time, Zhou Zhengyong and his wife were not in the mood to care about this. The four of them stared at the child without blinking.

After the white magic ball sank into the baby's body, a pure spiritual light soon shot out from the top of the baby's head.

The spiritual light was blue-red in color. It shot out from the top of the baby's head and fell to a height of five feet before stopping and gradually dissipating.

When Zhou Chun saw this scene, he immediately smiled and bowed to Zhou Zhengyong and his wife to congratulate them: "Congratulations, congratulations to Brother Yong and Sister-in-law, my nephew not only has spiritual root aptitude, but also has middle-grade spiritual root aptitude of wood and fire. Brother Yong's lineage has a successor!"

Hearing his congratulations, Zhou Zhengyong could no longer hold back the smile on his face.

He laughed wildly and said, "Hahahaha, he has the talent of a mid-grade spiritual root. My son Zhou Zhengyong has the talent of a mid-grade spiritual root! I, Zhou Zhengyong, will have a successor!!"
