Destiny is ashes

Chapter 418: Spiritual Life Qi (23)

It has to be said that although Principal He was not very conspicuous and looked like an ordinary middle-aged faculty member, with his calm instinct, he sensed a very strong sense of danger from the other party.

Very strong. Very dangerous. Just like... a sharp sword that hurts others and yourself!
"Oh... this is a very pure sword master!"

At this moment, Fu Xie, with the sharp perception of the Immortal Sword, also made a similar judgment as An Jing: "He is quite good... His sword intent is clear and bright, it is some kind of gold and water intent, and his body has a solid foundation. If there is no accident, his immortal foundation should be [White Feather Flying Banner, Golden Sand Cloud Cliff]."

"Strange." Seeing this, Fu Xie Sword Spirit was quite puzzled and said: "His immortal foundation has passed the three levels of 'Foundation and Transformation', 'Dongxuan Casting' and 'Enlightenment and Communication with the Gods'. He can now transform his spiritual nature into his innate magical power and transform his life energy into his immortal body. At this point, his magical power and true energy are mixed into one, and he can entrust his true soul to Taixu. At this point, Taixu's true soul is immortal, and he has become a Purple Mansion Immortal."

"But why is he stuck at the last step of building the foundation, which is the first level of the Purple Mansion, 'Taixu Jihun'?"

"Is there anything imperfect?"

An Jing thought to himself, "I don't think his body is very strong. He is about the same as the Grandmaster of the Zuohuan Sect - it's just that his sword intent is much purer than that guy who turns his mind into a sword."

"The Qi Refining Immortal Path does not focus on the strength of the physical body, but on the nature and life." Fu Xie Sword Spirit said: "Whether it is the nature and spirit that is used for supernatural powers, or the life energy that is used for the immortal body, both must be completed by the third level, and the nature and life must be cultivated together."

"The three levels of the immortal body are 'nurturing the holy fetus', 'refining the body with gold and jade', and 'returning to the true life energy'."

"Finally, the holy fetus transforms, leaps forward, and the spirit naturally improves - similarly, after 'Enlightenment of the Heart and Divine Communication', the divine power cleanses the body and can also rapidly improve the life energy."

"Is that so?" An Jing thought thoughtfully: "What about fellow practitioners?"

"Dual cultivation of sex and life." Fu Xie smiled and said, "With both magical powers and an immortal body, the last leap is naturally extraordinary. It can condense a trace of true gold nature in advance, adding a great medicine to condense the golden elixir in the future when you reach the peak of Purple Mansion's 'Seven Returns and Nine Transformations'. It can improve the grade of the golden elixir. Therefore, those who are interested in high-quality golden elixir will try to dual cultivate sex and life, but the process is extremely difficult. If it is not for the first-grade golden elixir, but just for the high-grade, there is no need to spend so much effort."

"This Principal He is mainly spiritual... It seems that there is a problem with his mentality. His swordsmanship has begun to hesitate, so he is unable to clearly understand the spirit, break through the barrier of the Purple Mansion and the Void, and place his true soul."

"He was at this level at least 20 years ago, but he has wasted his time until now. What a pity."

Of course, An Jing couldn't tell what was wrong with Principal He's mentality, but he was very clear that the other party's strength surpassed all the masters he had ever seen.

Even the Blood Evil clone of the Western Tour Envoy, because he is not a real martial vein master and has no martial vein formation in his body, his hard power is definitely inferior to him.

It sounds like this strength is of little value because of the Western Tour Envoy.

But in fact, the martial vein clone of the Western Tour Envoy was still the strongest enemy An Jing had ever seen. He was able to kill the opponent with the help of the earth vein blessing, the power of Ming Guangchen, and various trump cards that were beyond the Western Tour Envoy's expectations.

Moreover, except for the last moment, the Western Envoy never had the intention to kill him, thinking of capturing him and using him as raw material for refining.

At this moment, Principal He frowned slightly. He felt that An Jing's gaze stabbed him - but soon, he laughed. An Jing's sword intent could trigger this kind of "like a thorn in the back" feeling, which meant that the other party's potential was extraordinary.

"I would like to thank you for helping Nianquan. I can see that Nianquan's ability to temporarily improve his strength is entirely dependent on your help."

In that case, he didn't say much, and directly invited: "Although it's a bit abrupt, may I ask, are you interested in joining No. 3 Middle School?"

Huo Qing glanced at An Jing and said first: "I'm older, I'm afraid I can't do it."

"Indeed, but this is a small matter." Principal He glanced at Huo Qing. He could also see that this young man had a solid physical foundation and was a good candidate. "I know that you also have the qualification to audit the four major academy preparatory colleges."

"But I can give you a certificate from No. 3 Middle School, allowing you to audit classes as a candidate for No. 3 Middle School. This is much more valuable than a simple audit certificate on the market, and it comes with many benefits."

"And you."

Turning his head, Principal He's target has always been An Jing. He looked at the young man with tied hair in front of him, who looked very extraordinary just from his temperament, and said seriously: "In my opinion, your ability is quite good. Are you interested in joining our No. 3 Middle School? I will invite you to join with an exceptional admission."

"It's different from the wilderness. Even if the wilderness has heritage that is not inferior to that of the city, it is impossible for it to surpass the academy in terms of comprehensiveness and integrity."

Principal He's invitation was indeed sincere, and An Jing had to answer seriously: "Mr. Principal, I must admit that I wanted to agree. The... sect behind me really wanted me to come to Xuan Ye City in order to make further progress." "If I can join Xuan Ye City and become a student of No. 3 Middle School, it will be a good thing for me and the people behind me."

"But I am the heir of my side after all. Even if I want to agree, I have to go back and discuss the relevant procedures and make preparations... In a short period of time, at least three months and at most half a year, I can give you a reply."

An Jing's answer was his sincere thought.

Being able to study in Xuanye City's university and fully understand the cultivation system of Qi Refining Immortal Dao is definitely a huge win, not to mention the many techniques recorded in the school library and the cultivation experience of predecessors. Maybe he can really draw inferences from one instance to another and make a leap forward in his cultivation?

But considering An Jing has to disappear for one day every three days, it is a luxury for him to stay in Xuanye City to study stably. He must first recover the fragments of Fuxie in Duanren Mountain and get a longer stay in the other world before he can agree.

"it is good."

Principal He also knew that An Jing was trying to shirk responsibility, but this kind of thing was definitely not something that could be decided by An Jing alone.

Most people in Xuanye City look down on the wilderness, but Principal He knows that the number of strange people in the wilderness is far beyond everyone's imagination.

Those weirdos who were unwilling to be kept in the safe zone, those geniuses who chose to explore the ancient ruins of the Taoist Temple and never returned, and many strong men who wanted to break free from their shackles and establish their own sects for various reasons, would eventually choose to go to the wilderness.

Although the Wilderness does not have the inheritance of the soul and can never compare with the four major groups, it should not be underestimated in other aspects.

——Behind this An Xuan, there must be either a sword immortal who has inherited the legacy, or there really is a sword cultivator who is at least as good as me, in the foundation-building stage... no, stronger than me. Perhaps it is the Purple Mansion Sword Immortal.

Principal He thought to himself, "If possible, it would be great if I could establish a connection with the adults behind him... Well, even if something big happens, it has nothing to do with me now."

The reason why he was so optimistic about An Jing was because he had a very good vision. He was also a sword immortal and could see the value of the 'Sword Qi for Injury and Illness' and the 'Armor-Piercing True Energy' - this kind of skill, even in Xuan Ye City, would be regarded as a true secret, and it was definitely not something that ordinary people could learn casually.

In the wilderness, only the most core inheritors of the organization can learn it.

"If you want to apply for admission early."

Principal He smiled as his mind raced with thoughts. He handed An Jing a business card and said, "This is my personal contact information. Whether you want to apply for a chip or for other matters, you can contact me to discuss it."

"besides."

After seeing An Jing accept the business card, he nodded slightly and said, "I saw that you wanted to buy something in Teshi before?"

"Although there are occasionally good products in the special market, they are not stable. If you need them, it is more convenient to go through my channel."

An Jing thought about it and decided to tell the other party his needs.

Sometimes, when you encounter this situation, you can't just cut off the relationship if you want to. The less you owe others a favor, the more curious the other party will be. In this case, it is better to make some requests to make it convenient for yourself and put the other party at ease, so as to facilitate continued cooperation in the future.

"High-risk environment drones and anti-kill suits?"

After hearing An Jing's request, Principal He showed an understanding expression: "Do you want to prepare to explore the ancient ruins?"

——Actually not.

An Jing remained silent, but since others had misunderstood, then so be it. He couldn't possibly explain that he was trying to explore the cave of a purple mansion demon who was good at poisoning people, right?

"a piece of cake."

Principal He took An Jing's silence as a consent, his eyes flashed with intelligence, and he had sent the relevant requirements to others through the chip.
