Wanfa Daojun, starting from the Little Cloud and Rain Technique

Chapter 153 Water Control Technique Entanglement

There is a shallow triangular notch on the bark of the red cloud pine, which is a sign of key cultivation.

Ji An released the wind control technique, and his graceful figure shuttled through the woods.

Relying on his memory, he found other spiritual pines that were also being cultivated as a priority. He input his magic power into each of them to investigate and discovered that the fire spiritual energy contained in two of the spiritual pines was particularly strong, far exceeding that of the other spiritual pines.

If my guess is correct, these two plants should be not far from the lower grade of the second level.

Ji An's fingertips flickered with golden light as he carved triangles again on the two red cloud pines. He would take extra care of them in the coming days.

He flew to the nest of the fire crystal ants and used the blood contract to communicate with the queen ant, telling her the location of the second-level spiritual pine.

In a few months, when the spiritual pine blooms and produces pine cones, the fire crystal ants will have a feast.

The queen ant already had some intelligence, and she hissed with excitement after receiving the news. The second-level spiritual pine can greatly increase the reproduction speed of the ant colony.

After giving the instructions, Ji An continued to patrol the mountains and forests by driving the shuttle.

The moonlight is quiet, the breeze is gentle, and there seems to be a refreshing fragrance floating in the air.

The metallic leaves of the copper-veined mulberry tree glow coldly in the moonlight. When they sway in the wind, they make a clear sound of metal clashing, as if you are on a battlefield with swords and spears.

The next day.

After Ji An finished his training, he looked inside his body and saw that his immortal veins were like the roots of a big tree, extending to most areas of his body.

Now his efficiency in refining spiritual energy has increased by about 10% compared to when he just broke through the foundation-building stage, and the speed of his cultivation has increased a bit faster.

Ji An showed a gratified smile. After twenty years of unremitting efforts to nourish his immortal veins, his aptitude had been improving slowly and steadily.

He flew to the stone table in the kitchen where breakfast was already laid out.

"Yuhan, go to the warehouse and pack fifteen bags of top-quality pine nuts, each weighing thirty kilograms.

Also, go into the cold pond and fetch fifteen jars of spirit wine."

Today I am going to Ningcui Cliff to pay a visit to my master, and I will definitely meet other senior brothers and sisters. I have to bring some small gifts with me. Although they are not worth a few spirit stones, they are important to show my friendship.

"Please wait."

The two sisters responded at the same time, and after looking at each other, Xia Yuhan ran to the warehouse, and Xia Yulian walked towards the cold pond and took out a water-blue magic bead as big as a pigeon egg.

She input magic power into the magic bead and then jumped into the cold pond. The magic bead emitted a faint spiritual light and formed a barrier to block the water.

This is a very practical mid-grade magic weapon, the water-repellent beads, as well as other magic weapons such as fire-repellent beads and wind-repellent beads.

After a while, Ji An finished his breakfast, put the pine nuts and wine jar into the storage bag, and flew away on the flying shuttle.

The shuttle slowly landed on the hillside of Ningcui Cliff. Ji An looked down at the lush green mountains and rushing waterfalls, feeling filled with emotion.

Before he knew it, he had been away from here for more than ten years.

Du Huaiyuan walked out of the cave and said with a smile:
"Junior brother, you are the latest to come today, so you should drink three less cups of spirit wine later."

"Brother, your words don't count. I'm not late. It's still at least 25 minutes before noon."

Ji An said, taking out pine nuts and spirit wine and handing them over:
"Brother, don't think too much. This spiritual wine is my share."

He timed it just right and made sure to drink a lot of spirit wine.

Du Huaiyuan took the thing and said with a grin:

"I'll take the gifts. After the party is over, I'll go sit with my junior brother. I'll buy you the evening drinks."

The other party's words made him a little uneasy, and he wanted to go to Chiyan Peak to see if his spiritual wine was missing.

The two entered the cave, and Ji An found that all of his master's disciples who had stayed in the sect were present.

"Greetings, Master," Ji An paid his respects and presented the gifts he had brought.

Ge Yun took the gift with a smile, handed it to the maid behind him, and pointed to the person next to him and said:

"Hello, this is your Senior Sister Luo Ying."

"Luo Ying, this is my last disciple Ji An."

"I've met senior sister."

Ji An bowed and smiled, also presenting a gift. They had met once before.

When the Red Flame Peak erupted for the last time, Senior Uncle Lin Qiubai from the Yingyue Peak took this senior sister and another senior brother to visit him.

Groying waved his hand lightly:

"Thank you, Junior Brother. No need for the gift."

Ji An looked at his master and thought to himself, he doesn’t want any gifts from others. Are all sword cultivators like this?

Ge Ying said gently:
"Give it to me, I'll keep it for her. You go greet the other brothers and sisters first."

Ji An handed the gift to his master, greeted everyone, and gave the gifts to everyone, not even leaving out Zhu Qinghao.

He walked around and finally returned to the center of the small group.

Li Lingyu winked and asked:
"Junior brother, we will be heading to the Shiwan Mountains in a few days. Are you ready?"

Ji An patted his storage bag and said with a smile:
"I've prepared as best as I can."

He looked at Liu Yu and asked:

"Brother, the sect hasn't specified how long the battle will take. How long do you think it will take?"

The fasting pills he had were only enough for two months, so if the time was too long, he would need to prepare more.

“This battle must be a quick one.

The real battle will be over in three or four days at the fastest, and seven or eight days at the slowest.

Then, after defending for a few more days, as long as the formation of the mountain protection formation is buried, the entire battle will basically be over.

If everything goes well, I estimate that everyone will be able to return to the sect in half a month at most."

Ji An nodded slightly: "Then I feel relieved, but I don't know what tasks the sect will assign me, so I feel a little nervous."

He had never experienced a large-scale war in the world of immortal cultivation, so he didn't know what it was like.

Liu Yu smiled, revealing a few white teeth:
"Don't worry, the tasks assigned to you are definitely within your capabilities. I will tell you when we gather.

Furthermore, the sect will definitely send experts as mobile forces to prevent high-level monsters from charging into our positions."

After a while, the banquet officially began.

Ge Ying raised his glass, looked around at everyone and said:

"Everyone knows how the situation will develop in the future. Those present here are my only remaining disciples and relatives.

I hope that you will work together, help each other, and overcome difficulties together in the years to come.

I also wish you all a long and prosperous journey to immortality and good fortune.”

"Thank you, Master," the disciples stood up and responded with greetings.

"The sect has recruited a large number of cultivators for this operation, and Huaiyuan is the only one from the Ningcui Cliff lineage who has not received a mission.

Luo Ying and Liu Yu are both skilled warriors, so if you happen to meet them, you should help them out."

Liu Yuying said:

"I will do this without Master's instructions."

Groying glanced at the others and nodded slightly after a moment.

"I will."

She always believed that a battle should not involve a burden, so she agreed with some reluctance.

The demon disaster is about to break out. If these people fail to realize the cruelty of the future situation and do not have the power to protect themselves, they will most likely perish in the future.

During the last demon disaster, about 70% of the cultivators in Xizhou suffered casualties, and this time is not necessarily much better than the last time.

After the banquet, Liu Yu explained some fighting techniques in detail, and then the disciples left one after another.

Ge Ying said softly:

"I regret sending you to Yingyue Peak to become a sword cultivator. After the demonic disaster broke out, as the sect's high-level combat force, sword cultivators will inevitably have to fight on the front lines for many years, facing greater dangers."

A clay pot is bound to break in the well, a general is bound to die in the battle, and you will always encounter stronger monsters.

Ge Luoying smiled faintly and held Ge Ying's arm.

"Grandma, sword cultivators are not only powerful in attack, but their flying and escaping skills are also unmatched among other cultivators.

If things can’t be done, I can run away as fast as I can.”

Although sword cultivators are required to move forward bravely and kill everything with one sword, if they face a Chaoyuan-level monster, they would be foolish not to run.

To move forward courageously refers to a state of mind, where one is indomitable and has no regrets even if one dies. However, when facing an enemy who is several levels higher than you, you have to run away.

Her eyes narrowed slightly, recalling the look on her master's face when he said these words to her and her junior brother last night, stern and serious!
Ge Ying smiled and reached out to stroke her drooping black hair:

“I feel much more at ease now that you have this awareness.

If you encounter any difficulties in the future, feel free to ask my disciples for help. Don’t feel embarrassed.

If they ask you for help, do your best to help.

Connections are built through frequent interactions. Sword cultivators are also cultivators, so of course they need connections as well."

"Grandma, I'm already in the late stage of the Building Stage. How can they help me?"

"You need to find materials to refine your flying sword, right? Why do you want to find the ore piece by piece yourself?"

Groying said unconvincedly:
"Master said that finding materials is also a kind of tempering."

'Bullshit.'

Ge Ying said something secretly in her heart, and then said:

"A year ago, I got some materials and asked your master if he needed them. Less than two hours after I sent out the golden sword, Uncle Lin arrived.

Then go with me to the sect's secret library and exchange them for corresponding contribution points and great merits. Why should I spend time and effort to search for them myself when there are options available?
Can you go from Ningcui Cliff to Yingyue Peak and back in two hours?"

Ge Luoying frowned slightly. She remembered the scene of her master flying with his sword at full strength.

Ji An controlled the shuttle to slowly land and said:
"Brother, please give me some of the spiritual wine in the pond that can restore my magic power.

If you hadn't come, I would have mentioned it to you at the party."

The only thing left on him that could quickly restore his magic power was a small amount of Qingxu Water, which was left over from when he was building his foundation. This spiritual water was of little use to him now.

"Okay, I'll take out twenty jars for you, Junior Brother."

Du Huaiyuan agreed generously, then used the water control technique to dive into the cold pool.

The water control technique can manipulate water flow and drain water, making it a good helper for diving.

Ji An narrowed his eyes. He thought about how his master had never dived into the cold pond, so he decided to practice the water control technique.

He found the jade slip of Qi Refining spells he had exchanged for more than ten years ago and stuck it on his forehead, where he found the Water Controlling Technique and the Fire Controlling Technique.

The art of controlling fire is a must-learn for weapon-refining cultivators. Although he has no plans to learn it, if he gets the basics of the art, he might be able to use it someday.

For him now, it is very easy to learn these Qi Refining spells. After learning the formula, he can do it in just a few breaths.

Seeing that his senior brother showed no sign of coming out of the pool, he learned a few more spells.
