Planting an immortal tree in the wizarding world

Chapter 159 The latent shadow of wood and stone!

The border battle between the Zhenhuan Sect and the Tianjian Sect lasted for more than three hours.

It was the True Sect that retreated first, while the Heavenly Sword Sect did not pursue them.

In this war, the True Sect lost three Foundation Establishment cultivators, while the Heavenly Sword Sect lost seven Foundation Establishment cultivators.

As for Qi Refining cultivators, whether they are from within or outside the sect, their numbers are countless.

Neither of the Core Formation cultivators on either side died.

Of the seven Foundation Establishment cultivators, three were killed by Ronan.

From then on, Ronan gained a fearsome reputation among the Zhen Huan Sect and the Tianjian Sect.

After this war, Emperor Zhenzong temporarily retreated.

Because these sect wars are all about mutual attrition.

Foundation Establishment cultivators are quite difficult to cultivate. This time, the Heavenly Sword Sect lost seven Foundation Establishment cultivators, and it will take a long time to recover.

Once the True Sect has rested, they will return here to continue fighting the Heavenly Sword Sect and deplete their strength.

Once the power of the Heavenly Sword Sect is depleted to a certain extent, it is estimated that the Nascent Soul Ancestor will make his move.

During this retreat, the True Sect left two Core Formation cultivators and twelve Foundation Establishment cultivators here to prevent a sudden attack from the Heavenly Sword Sect and to allow them to resist in time.

Ronan was not on duty, so he went back with the others.

Back in the True Soul Sect's cave, Ronan began examining the storage bags he had obtained from the three Foundation Establishment cultivators of the Heavenly Sword Sect.

Of these three Foundation Establishment cultivators, two were in the early stage of Foundation Establishment and one was in the middle stage.

Each of them contained a considerable number of spirit stones.

Ronan then hid half of the spirit stones.

He used part of the spirit stones to buy things in the cultivation world, and kept the other part to exchange for gold.

However, as his wizarding rank increased, wizards used less and less gold in their transactions.

In most cases, it's a barter system, or like in the Wizarding Isles, trading with magic stones.

Just like when he was taken to the Earth Elemental Plane last time, the wizard's condition for taking him there was not how much gold, but that he help obtain the energy core of the Rock Giant leader.

He planned to integrate the other half of the spirit stone that he had separated into the spirit realm.

Cultivating the "Scripture of Ten Thousand Trees' Longevity" was a secret to him.

There aren't many Foundation Establishment cultivators in the True Realm Sect. Even if the sect's patriarch wanted to, he could probably monitor each one.

Although a Nascent Soul Ancestor shouldn't pay attention to these Foundation Establishment juniors.

However, to be on the safe side, Ronan decided to go outside the True Man Sect before using the Myriad Trees Longevity Scripture to integrate the spirit stone into the spiritual realm.

With that thought in mind, Ronan left the cave and headed towards the outer reaches of the True Immortal Realm of the Realm of the True Immortal Sect.

Upon arriving at the Enchanted Immortal Pavilion in the Valley of the Gods, Ronan entered his usual room and began to integrate the spirit stones.

He circulated his cultivation technique, and a green light rose from his dantian, enveloping the spirit stone.

Gradually, the spirit stone dissipated, turning into energy particles, which he then sent into his dantian along with the green light.

The chaos of the spiritual realm gradually cleared, and the land gradually expanded.

After fully integrating the spirit stone into his spiritual realm, Ronan once again immersed his spirit into his storage bag.

Besides spirit stones, the storage bag also contained books, magical artifacts, and elixirs.

Ronan took out the books one by one and flipped through them.

Some of the books contain secret manuals, while others contain cultivation insights.

Ronan glanced at it and saw that the techniques and spells on it were mainly based on sword moves.

He felt that the sword techniques within were not powerful enough, and estimated that even if he cultivated them to a deeper level, they would not be as powerful as the Twelve Azure Spirit Sword Formation.

The magical artifacts are flying swords.

After analyzing it using Hongmeng, it became clear that the flying sword's material was ordinary.

However, the materials of flying swords are also a combination of elements with multiple attributes.

Ronan then used the Myriad Trees Longevity Scripture to integrate these flying swords into his spiritual realm. Instantly, he felt his affinity for various elemental energy particles increase.

Especially for energy particles of metallic elements.

He only needs to use his divine power to condense metallic energy particles, and soon a sharp steel needle will appear at his fingertips.

This was not witchcraft; it was something he did entirely by utilizing his mental energy and affinity for the energy particles of metallic elements.

With a thought, the steel needle that had been gathering at his fingertips immediately transformed into metallic energy particles and dissipated.

Ronan took out the token of the True Sect and placed it under his pillow.

They left the Enchanted Immortal Pavilion and flew towards the mortal world.

After landing in the mortal mansion, they were transported back to the wizarding world.

……

In the days that followed, Ronan would occasionally return to the cultivation world to participate in sect wars.

Because of his first display of power, the cultivators of the Heavenly Sword Sect underestimated his strength.

In the subsequent battles, cultivators at the late Foundation Establishment stage were watching him closely.

Furthermore, the Heavenly Sword Sect cultivators nearby were also subtly forming a mutually supportive formation with the other opposing cultivators.

After several battles, he found it much harder to kill cultivators.

Of course, if he were to reveal even a portion of his strength, he could kill the cultivator.

However, his bottom line is that he can only reveal that he has a powerful flying sword and a well-cultivated Samadhi True Fire.

He didn't want to expose his other forces to the public.

When he returned to the True Man Sect, Ronan would often visit the sect's library to browse through the books.

That day, while he was in the library, he came across a spell for stealth and invisibility—Wood and Stone Shadow.

Having mastered this spell, one can either blend into trees and rocks to hide or burrow underground, moving freely through the soil.

The higher one's magical skill, the harder it is to be discovered among trees and rocks, and the faster one can burrow underground.

The world of cultivation is rife with scarce resources, and sects are constantly vying for power, making it a very turbulent place.

'The wizarding world, though it has kingdoms, is also fraught with hidden dangers, with wizarding families within and external enemies outside.'

Ronan thought to himself that he should learn this spell.

In this way, they would have another means of escape.

Although the Blood Transformation Escape Technique and the Seven Star Sword Escape Technique are fast, they are still traceable.

Sometimes, one has to resort to magic to conceal oneself.

After Ronan memorized all of the Wood and Stone Shadow Techniques using the Primordial Chaos Technique, he left the True Recognition Sect Immortal Realm.

He immediately began practicing this magic in a forest in the mortal world.

Unlike witchcraft, magic is released through hand gestures and the circulation of magical power.

At the beginning, because I was not familiar with the flow of magic power, it was a little slow to cast the spell.

However, after practicing a few times, casting the spell is just a matter of a single thought.

Hidden Shadows in Wood and Stone (Beginner Level 25%)

After practicing for a while, Ronan made a hand seal, circulated his magic power, and leaped into a tree.

Just as his body was about to crash into the trees, he suddenly shrank and disappeared into the trees.

When he casts spells, he is enveloped by a layer of wood-attribute magic, allowing him to merge into the trees.

Being among the trees, he could see everything around them.

It was as if his eyes had spread throughout the entire tree.

Ronan, hidden among the trees, made another hand gesture.

After the spell was lifted, the tree immediately rejected him and spat him out.
