Dragon Devouring Cultivation

Chapter 33 Preparation
Only those who have truly achieved foundation building can fly in the flesh. The terrifying pressure of foundation building makes Yunxi County extremely quiet.

No Qi training cultivator dares to challenge the foundation building cultivation. Those who dare to challenge are dead.

After the county chief's warning, public security in Yunxi County returned to normal.

But no one knows how long this suppressed normal state can last. Those cultivators dared to destroy the nodes of the city defense formation. Don’t they know that Yunxi County has a county chief who is a true cultivator of foundation building?

That night, Li Zhen absorbed the accumulated spiritual energy through practice in the practice room, and he did not leave the practice room immediately.

He took out a maidenhair vine seed, which he got from Li's mother.

As spiritual plant husbands, Mr. and Mrs. Li have a lot of spiritual plant seeds in their hands. Li Zhen asked for three iron wire vine seeds.

Li Zhen can currently cast many spells, but the strongest spiritual root talent he has publicly demonstrated is the wood spiritual root, so it is better for him to cast wood spells in public.

He only learned one wood magic spell, which was 'Entanglement'.

'Entanglement' is a spell that induces birth. It requires plant seeds as a trigger. After activating 'Entanglement', the plant seeds will grow rapidly and turn into ropes that entangle the target.

The best vine for performing the 'entanglement technique' is the spiritual vine. The iron vine is known for its vines being as tough as iron. Once a cultivator in the early or middle stage of Qi training is entangled, it is very difficult to free himself.

The current situation in Yunxi County forced Li Zhen to be cautious. For other Qi-cultivating cultivators, spells can only be used in combat situations that are prepared in advance, but he is different. The spell runes on the wall of the Dragon Heart Space allow him to cast spells instantly to a certain extent, which makes spells one of his combat methods.

He called upon 3 points of spiritual power in his body and activated the 'Entanglement Rune' through the Dragon Heart Space. A green light sank into the iron wire vine seed in his hand.

He threw out the seeds of the maidenhair vine, which fell to the ground and immediately sprouted long vines, tightly binding his assumed target, a chair.

There is a mysterious connection between him and the growing wire vine; he can control the direction and strength of the vine.

Of course, this kind of spell control power comes from the spell casting experience of the entanglement spell of the talisman maker who drew the mid-grade "Entanglement Talisman".

If he were to start from the basics, he would be able to perform the 'entanglement technique', but it would take some time to achieve such control.

Li Zhen released the "entanglement technique", and the wire vines that bound the chair quickly shrank and transformed into a seed state.

He picked up the seed of the maidenhair vine. The vitality in this seed was reduced by half. It could only be used twice more before it would completely lose its vitality.

The rapid growth of 'Entanglement Technique' is achieved at the cost of consuming the vitality of the seeds in exchange for rapid growth in a short period of time.

Ordinary seeds lose their vitality after one use, but spiritual seeds can generally be used multiple times.

In fact, in actual combat, the spirit seeds stimulated by the "Entanglement Technique" will be difficult to recover and reuse, let alone persist for a period of time, due to the target's struggle and the damage to the plants.

Li Zhen was very satisfied with his spellcasting. A control spell like 'Entanglement' could buy him precious time whether he was killing the enemy or escaping.

In addition to the 'entanglement technique', his most commonly used fighting method is swordsmanship.

If you want to unleash the true power of elementary swordsmanship at the minor success level, you can’t count on practicing the sword.

The low-grade first-level longsword he obtained when he killed Jie Xiu has been successfully refined by him and is named Xingrui E07 Longsword. Due to its too low quality, there is no need to bind it to the identity bracelet.

There is also a Xingrui E12 shield, also obtained from Jie Xiu.

Although both the sword and the shield are first-grade, low-quality magical weapons, they are suitable for his use.

On the contrary, the Jiutian C045 medium-grade flying sword was not suitable for his identity. If he took it out, he would be targeted immediately.

The next Monday, Li Zhen walked into the classroom with the Xingrui E07 long sword hanging around his waist.

However, no classmates noticed that the weapon on his waist was a first-grade inferior magic weapon. For most of his classmates, it was not yet time for them to come into contact with a first-grade inferior magic weapon.

Li Zhen glanced at Cheng He who was sitting quietly in his seat. Ever since he recovered from his injury and returned to school, Cheng He no longer had the pride he had before.

Cheng He lost his confidence, his eyes were empty, as if he had lost his spirit. Teacher Zhang talked to Cheng He more than once, but the previous blow was too great for Cheng He, so he could only wait for Cheng He to come out of it himself.

Li Zhen shook his head. Even if Cheng He came over this time, something bad would probably happen again in the future.

He returned to his seat. Yu Nan sat in front of him and Han Wenqin sat on his right. Both of them took the initiative to ask Teacher Zhang to change their seats, which made the three of them form a small group.

"What are you talking about?" Li Zhen sat down and saw that Yu Nan and Han Wenqin seemed to be arguing about something, so he asked curiously.

"We were discussing whether there will be a Poqiao Pill auction at the Jiutian Group's annual auction!" Yu Nan turned to look at Li Zhen and replied.

"Isn't it still too early for us to get the Breaking Acupoint Pill?" Li Zhen, of course, knew the identities of these two people and shook his head.

He was speaking based on the normal progress of cultivation. Even if Yu Nan and Han Wenqin had the support of their family, it would be difficult for them to advance to the sixth level of Qi training after graduating from high school. And now there are still more than five years before high school graduation, so it is indeed too early to consider the Breaking Acupoint Pill.

"Many of Yu Nan and I's elders need the Piercing Pill!" Yu Nan explained.

"What's the point of saying all this? Jiutian Group has never announced the auction of the Breaking Qi Pill. Someone must have spread the news!" Han Wenqin waved her hand and said.

"There's no smoke without fire. Jiutian Group hasn't refuted anything so far. Besides, no one can say for sure that it was Jiutian Group that released the news!" Yu Nan insisted.

"The cultivator who leaked the news must have an ulterior motive. He also said that there would be an auction of Foundation Establishment Pills. Isn't this just to cause chaos in Yunxi?" Han Wenqin said worriedly when talking about the latest news.

"Hey, Li Zhen, have you changed your practice sword?" Just then, Yu Nan discovered the long sword on Li Zhen's waist and said, after saying this, he turned his gaze to Han Wenqin.

"It's not given by my family!" Han Wenqin shook her head.

Although Li Zhen's progress was fast, the time was still too short. A large family like the Han family would not invest too much at once. They would focus on a long-term approach so that the beneficiaries would be more grateful.

If one really invests too much at once, it will make the sponsored monks more ambitious, and if one reduces the investment in the future, it will lead to enmity.

Sometimes investment is also a science, and the four major families have a lot of experience in this regard.

"My parents bought it. It's a bit chaotic outside lately!" Li Zhen explained with a smile.

"At least the school is safe!" Yu Nan said with a smile without much worry.

The school is indeed safe. Although there is no security on the surface, the school has three classes in the junior high school, three classes in the senior high school, plus the teachers of the monastic class, as well as the school's director, vice principal and principal. This is a powerful force that no one dares to ignore.

Teacher Zhang walked into the classroom with a very serious expression.

"Students, from today onwards all school buses will have teachers accompanying them, and you must take the school bus to and from school!" He announced a requirement in a deep voice.

The students all understood why this was done. The school would only make such an arrangement if it sensed danger.

At the same time, this is also due to the school's distrust of the Public Security Bureau. When has the public security in Yunxi County been so bad before?

"Li Zhen, I will remind the people at the Yiqian Hall that when you finish your training there, you will need a cultivator to take you home!" Han Wenqin said softly to Li Zhen.

"No need to be so troublesome!" Li Zhen also replied in a low voice.

"It's not just you, it's the same with Honghui!" Han Wenqin continued.

Since the school did this, there must be a reason. She didn't want Li Zhen and Rong Honghui to get into trouble because of her negligence.

In the following courses, every teacher talked about some more experiences on saving lives in class, just to give students more chances of survival when they encounter troubles.

The school cannot suspend classes, at least not without receiving an order from the county chief. This concerns the reputation of Yunxi County.

The students in the monk class were all nervous, but the students in the ordinary class had no idea what was going on and they were still laughing and joking as usual.
