I can gather experience beads

"The cultivation cave marked in red has an owner."

"The cultivation cave marked with green is ownerless."

"Uncle Master, you can just choose the green cave for cultivation." The inner sect deacon added.

Cao Rui nodded slightly and took a quick look at the sand table.

He chose a cave for cultivation where there were fewer people around.

Cao Rui still quite likes quiet places.

Moreover, since he possesses experience beads, his cultivation mode is inevitably somewhat different from that of others.

"Let's take this one, the Southeast No. 18 Training Cave." Cao Rui pointed at the cave and said.

"no problem!"

The inner gate steward marked the cave chosen by Cao Rui in red, and then gave Cao Rui the key to the cave.

This key is a jade slip, used to open the magic circle of the cave.

The caves of the inner disciples on Chaori Peak all have simple magic arrays.

It is usually the simplest combination of a 0th-order spirit gathering array and a 0th-order warning array.

This 0-level formation relies on external spiritual energy to operate, and is very practical.

"Uncle, walk slowly!"

Amid the farewell voice of the inner sect deacon, Cao Rui walked away.

On the winding path of Chaori Peak, there are signposts marking the various caves for cultivation.

Soon, Cao Rui arrived at the Southeast No. 18 Training Cave.

The cave for cultivation is very simple, it was carved out from the mountain wall.

Use the jade slip to open the entrance.

Cao Rui entered.

There is a hall in the cave.

There are also four small rooms that can be used for other purposes.

The spirit gathering formation outside the cave is taking effect.

The spiritual energy inside the cave is about 30% higher than outside the cave.

"With such a rich spiritual energy, I wonder how much the experience points can be increased."

Cao Rui took a fasting pill and turned a small room into a training room.

Then he tried the effect of practicing in the cave in the practice room.

Three days flew by in the blink of an eye.

On this day, Cao Rui, who was sitting cross-legged in the training room, opened his eyes and a flash of joy appeared in his eyes.

"Sure enough, after the spiritual energy of the surrounding environment has increased, the speed at which the experience points increase has also increased."

"Now, if a haul practices Mingyu Gong normally, his experience points can increase by about 12% every year."

"The current experience beads of Mingyu Gong are 45%. In about five years, I can break through to the eighth level of Qi Refining Stage."

"If supplemented with medicinal pills, the speed will be even faster."

"However, I am new here, and I still have many basic spells of the Spirit Beast Sect that I have not learned. In the next five years, I will practice the Mingyu Gong on my own and use it to consolidate the spells of the Spirit Beast Sect."

"You can temporarily buy some spiritual herbs and refine the simplest 0-level spiritual pill, the Bigu Pill. When you have free time, you can improve the basic alchemy skills you learned from Wei Chun. There is no rush to learn the formal alchemy skills."

Having made up his mind, Cao Rui took out the spell booklet that Xu Qingzhi had given him.

This spell book contains multiple level 0 spells.

Because Cao Rui had previously practiced five Five Elements Level 0 spells, some of which had overlapping effects, Cao Rui left them idle for the time being.

"These spells are very useful and must be practiced."

Cao Rui's eyes fell on the names of several spells in the spell booklet.

A level 0 spell without attributes: Light Feather Technique, which can reduce the weight of the cultivator and allow him to float forward.

This is the main means of travel for cultivators in the Qi Refining Stage.

A level 0 spell without attributes: the art of controlling objects, which can make objects move outside the body within the range of spiritual consciousness.

When this spell is practiced to perfection, one can easily control objects to fly. Although the speed is not fast, it can prepare one for practicing the upgraded version of the 1st-level spell sword-controlling (weapon-controlling) in the future.

Attributeless 0th-level spell: Secret sound transmission, which condenses the sound into a beam with magic power and transmits it directly into the target's ears.

Level 0 spell without attributes: Blood Contract with Spirit Beast, you can sign a contract with the spirit beast and communicate with each other mentally.

This is also the foundation of the Spirit Beast Sect, which enables cultivators in the Qi Refining Stage to control spirit beasts and unleash powerful combat power.

The spirit beast blood contract also requires the spirit blood provided by the spirit beast sect to complete the signing.

This kind of spiritual blood is extremely precious, and inner disciples can only apply for one drop.

To obtain spiritual blood again, you have to complete the spiritual blood mission.

Cao Rui plans to apply for spiritual blood when he adopts a spiritual beast in the future.

After sorting out his thoughts, Cao Rui, who had just joined the Spirit Beast Sect, began to retreat again.

0th level spell, Cao Rui needs 240.

The four spells took 960 days, less than three years.

Cultivation takes no time.

Lingshou Mountain is protected by a magic circle, and the four seasons are like spring, which further dilutes the concept of time.

More than two years later.

Cao Rui temporarily ended his retreat.

At this time, the experience value of the Mingyu Gong experience bead reached 75%.

Four attributeless 0-level spells, all cultivated to perfection, are extremely terrifying.

"The spell has been practiced."

"It's time to go out of the customs."

Cao Rui now has three directions. The first is to find Han Yuansheng to learn the alchemy technique. After learning the alchemy technique, he can speed up his cultivation progress.

The second is to go to the Spirit Beast Academy, adopt a spirit beast, and cultivate spirit beast companions.

The third is to find a disciple to teach you the skills, spend spirit stones to practice advanced spells of level 0 spells, and enhance your combat power.

After much thought, Cao Rui felt that he currently had no need for combat power.

So he decided to find Han Yuansheng and learn alchemy.

During these two years, Cao Rui has not been idle.

After obtaining the recipe for Bigu Pills for free from the Alchemy Institute.

Normally, I would use spirit stones to purchase some alchemy materials for the Bigu Pill from the main peak, and use them to refine the Bigu Pill.

The first time Cao Rui refined an elixir, which was the simplest fasting elixir, he discovered that when refining an elixir, a separate experience value for that elixir would appear.

At present, Cao Rui's mastery of the Bigu Pill has reached a small level of success after being promoted once.

The price of the materials needed to refine a Bigu Pill is about one spirit stone.

After successful refining, the resulting Bigu Pill can be sold for two spirit stones.

However, Cao Rui had just started refining the elixir, and despite the help of experience beads, he still failed many times.

Every time Cao Rui refines the Bigu Pill, regardless of success or failure, his alchemy skills and Bigu Pill experience beads will increase in experience points.

In recent days, Cao Rui has just accumulated enough experience points in alchemy, upgrading it from LV0 to LV1.

After reaching LV1, combined with the small success of the Bigu Pill, the success rate of refining the Bigu Pill is about %.

It enabled Cao Rui to maintain a balance between income and expenditure.

This is also the reason why Cao Rui wanted to find Han Yuansheng to learn alchemy.

Having made up his mind, Cao Rui did not delay.

Step out of the cultivation cave.

Close the magic circle.

Cao Rui headed towards the Lingfeng location where Han Yuansheng was given by Xu Qingzhi.

Han Yuansheng is a true disciple and has the power to open up his own spiritual peak for cultivation.

However, Han Yuansheng's spiritual peak for cultivation naturally had no iron chain bridge connecting it.

Cao Rui needs to fly on his own to reach Han Yuansheng's spiritual peak of cultivation.

Fortunately, after this retreat, Cao Rui has learned how to fly.

Cao Rui took out the 0th-level magic sword, used the object control technique to make it float, and then stepped on it with both feet.

The perfect level of object control technique is already able to carry Cao Rui's own weight, so it is quite reliable.

Cao Rui took off smoothly. Although his speed was not fast, he was steady.

Use magic power to protect your body so that you won’t be blown by the wind.

Cao Rui rose into the air from Chaori Peak and quickly left the peak. He lowered his head slightly and saw that the ground below him had turned into a bottomless abyss.

Cao Rui excitedly flew towards Han Yuansheng on his sword.
