Chapter 23: Third Level of Qi Training

After learning all five spells, she began to apply them in her daily life. Then she start to learn all basic spells.

And she found that meditating after continuously depleting her spiritual power would increase the speed of absorbing spiritual energy, so she often did this in the space.

Invisibly, her Dantian contained far more spiritual energy than the monks of the same period, and her combat power was also much stronger.

Now she has no problem fighting ordinary opponents at the higher level of Qi training.

From the very beginning, one spell consumed all the same kind of spiritual energy in the body.

Later, every time she meditated and the spiritual energy was full, two or three kinds of the same kind of spiritual energy could be released. 

She remembered that she had read in many cultivation novel that protagonist encountered a cultivator during her training.

The spells in his hands were so fast that they could even be cast instantly. Because he could cast spells instantly, he frequently suppressed the protagonist in their battles, causing her to suffer a great loss.

Yun Shang also wanted to emulate him. Good things should be learned from. If it's instant, the operation must be fast.

People often only pay attention to the quality of the magic, but forget this something that can be said to be neither trivial nor unimportant.

Of course, some people realize this, but they don't have enough time and energy to practice, so they end up giving up.

Yun Shang is not worried about this. As long as she practices within the space, she will have enough time to master it.

The speed inside the space is different from the speed outside, so there is enough time for Yun Shang to practice.

Yun Shang stumbled a little when she first started practicing. However, as she cast more and more spells, the spell seals on her hands became faster and faster, almost catching up instantaneously.

Yun Shang put more effort into it, allowing herself to do it instantly.

Now she can perform various techniques of five elements at once, which is really a pleasant surprise.

...

Time slowly passed by as she was practicing swordsmanship, meditated and studied spells, which were boring and novel day after day.

She had been in seclusion for more than two years in the space, it means less than three months passed outside, she finally raised her cultivation to the third level of Qi training.

Yun Shang has been busy practicing magic recently and has not taken care of the space for long. Yun Shang's mind moved, a white light flashed, and the person has appeared in the space.

Yun Shang walked around the area where the spiritual herbs and medicines were planted. At this time, the various low-level spiritual herbs and medicines that had been planted in the space had naturally matured.

It stops growing when it reaches one thousand years old. Yun Shang knows that it is rare for a low-level spiritual medicine to grow to a thousand years old.

There are also some low-level spiritual herbs from level one to level three that have mutated due to being planted for too long, and even the seeds that fell after they matured have grown into a new batch;

Yun Shang began to harvest all these thousand-year-old low-level spiritual medicines and put them into the wooden house.

She thought that she must remember to buy more jade boxes next time she went to the market, otherwise it would look ugly if they were piled up like this. She collected the seeds on the ground and planted a new batch.

After Yun Shang finished tidying up the low-level spiritual medicine area, she walked to the high-level spiritual medicine area planted near the spiritual spring.

At this time, all the high-level spiritual medicines here are mature, and they are a thousand years old, and they are still growing.

Even the blue jade lotus in the spiritual spring was the same, with a fragrant medicinal aroma and a blue lotus emitting a faint light.

Blue Jade Lotus is the main ingredient for refining the Heart Demon Pill. Yun Shang was delighted. In Yun Shang's view, these high-level, thousand-year-old spiritual medicines scattered all over the ground were like piles of spirit stones.

Yun Shang thought that if these things appeared outside, it would probably drive people crazy. Yun Shang did not plan to harvest them now, as the longer the high-level spiritual medicines were aged, the better.

Yun Shang looked at the place where the seeds of unknown species were before, but they were still seeds at this moment.

What caught Yun Shang's eye was a vine covered with sharp thorns, and on the vine were large blood-red flowers. The blood-red flowers looked enchanting and strange.

Especially when the blood-red flowers opened, rows of sharp objects like barbed blades were revealed inside the flowers. The blood-red flowers opened and closed like the bloody mouth of a ferocious beast, so terrifying.

Yun Shang couldn't help but shiver all over, and shuddered! She took two steps back gently.

"What the hell is this? Why is it so scary?"

Yun Shang was really horrified when she suddenly saw such a thing appear in her space.

However, Yun Shang knew that this should be the seed that she had planted before, but she couldn't recognize the species. Yun Shang suppressed her fear and carefully identified it.

Suddenly, her pupils shrank, "Isn't this the ancient spiritual creature, the blood-thirsty demon vine?"

The bloodthirsty demon vine is the most dangerous ancient creature among the ten major vines in ancient times.

In addition to requiring sufficient spiritual energy to grow, the bloodthirsty demon vine's favorite food is the flesh and blood of monks and spiritual beasts.

Because the bloodthirsty demon vine is quite ferocious, has strong combat power, and has extremely harsh growth conditions, it is difficult for ordinary cultivators to subdue it even if they are lucky enough to encounter it. Therefore, in the world of cultivation, the bloodthirsty demon vine is very rare. Generally, once it appears, it will be snatched away by major forces;

Yun Shang looked at the bloodthirsty demon vine in front of her. It was obviously a thousand years old. Usually, the bloodthirsty demon vine would develop intelligence when it was three thousand years old.

Yun Shang's eyes flashed, and she quickly bit her finger, squeezed out a drop of blood and dripped it on the petals of the bloodthirsty demon vine, and the blood flowed into the heart of the flower.

Suddenly, the bloodthirsty vine trembled all over, as if it was struggling.

It was only after a while that things calmed down. At this moment, Yun Shang clearly felt that a vague connection had been established between herself and the demon vine, and the contract had been formed.

Yun Shang raised the corners of her mouth, and she was obviously in a good mood. After all, the bloodthirsty demon vine was an ancient evil vine. If she didn't make a contract with it before it gained intelligence, it would be difficult to make a contract with it later after it gained intelligence.

Yun Shang looked at the bloodthirsty demon vine in front of her, tapped her chin and said to herself: "From now on, I will name you Yaoyao."

After she said this, she could clearly feel the bloodthirsty demon vine's flower body suddenly tremble.

She thought she was seeing things, but Yun Shang didn't care. She now had one more thing to defend herself. She smiled with satisfaction. Yun Shang

counted them and found there were three bloodthirsty vines in total. Except for the one she had contracted with, she carefully pulled out the other two vines and didn't dare to let them grow freely.

One must know that a blood-thirsty demon vine without a contract and with intelligence is very dangerous. She dared not leave such a dangerous thing in the space to grow freely and let it develop intelligence.

Since there were no extra jade boxes in the space, Yun Shang had to go to the wooden house and empty the jade box that had previously contained the jade slip.

She placed the jade slips in the jade box on the table, then put the two blood-sucking demon vines she had pulled out into the jade box and sealed it, and then she left the wooden house again;

Yun Shang came to the area where spiritual fruits were planted at the foot of the green mountain.

At this time, spiritual fruits of various grades have already grown and matured, and have produced a lot of spiritual fruits with attractive colors and fragrant aroma.

There are first-level red plum fruit and peach, second-level green spirit fruit and fire spirit fruit, third-level jade void fruit and spirit essence fruit, fourth-level red sun fruit and ice snow fruit, fifth-level Xuanming fruit and Taixuan Zhu fruit, etc.

Yun Shang used the newly learned object control technique to pick a second-level spiritual fruit, the green spiritual fruit, and then used a cleansing technique to clean the spiritual fruit in her hand.

With a "crunch", Yun Shang put the spiritual fruit into her mouth and took a bite. The taste of the spiritual fruit was crisp and delicious, much better than modern fruits.

Moreover, Yun Shang could clearly feel that the spiritual fruit was full of spiritual energy. The spiritual energy in the spiritual fruit flowed from Yun Shang's mouth into her body, and finally flowed into her dantian through her meridians.

Yun Shang quickly finished the spiritual fruit in her hand with a series of crunching sounds.

Yun Shang sat cross-legged in the open space to absorb the spiritual energy in the spiritual fruit. After Yun Shang absorbed the spiritual energy in the spiritual fruit, she clearly felt that her cultivation had improved a little.

With Yun Shang's current Qi training stage, she can only eat some spiritual fruits below the second level.

And she couldn't eat too much. As for the spiritual fruits above the third level, Yun Shang couldn't eat them with her current cultivation level, otherwise the spiritual energy in the spiritual fruits would enter her body and destroy her meridians.

Yun Shang looked at the various spiritual fruits hanging on the branches, feeling satisfied, and then she started to pick them. Yun Shang first used the object control technique to pick the spiritual fruits of various grades, and then piled them all in a corner of the wooden house.

Yun Shang then harvested all the spiritual rice and vegetables, and planted another batch. Fortunately, the things would not go bad if they were placed in the space, otherwise it would be a headache if there were too many things.

The spiritual herbs and medicines would be consumed after she started to learn alchemy. As for the spiritual fruits, Yun Shang could not eat so many by herself.

Yun Shang planned to use some of these spiritual fruits to make spiritual fruit wine. Yun Shang knew that in the world of cultivation there was a wine recipe that produced spiritual wine with various benefits. It seemed that she needed to find some spiritual wine recipes.

Yun Shang had been busy in the space for a while and was already sweating profusely. She felt very uncomfortable because of the stickiness on her body. She took off her clothes and jumped into the spiritual spring to clean herself.

During the cleaning process, Yun Shang looked down at the spirit stone lying quietly at the bottom of the spirit spring.

After a long time, the spirit stones in the spirit spring have been cleansed by the spiritual energy in the spirit spring, and most of them have become high-quality spirit stones. A small part of the spirit stones have even become darker in color and have more spiritual energy.

Yun Shang took out one of these spirit stones and put it in the palm of her hand to take a look. It was obviously a top-quality spirit stone.

  The color of the spirit stone will become deeper as the grade of the spirit stone increases. The top-grade spirit stone is smaller than the high-grade spirit stone, and the color is deeper, and the spiritual energy inside is naturally richer;

Yun Shang fished up all the top-grade spirit stones at the bottom of the spiritual spring. With a sweep of her spiritual sense, she discovered that there were more than three hundred top-grade spirit stones.

Yun Shang was delighted. Three hundred top-grade spirit stones, when converted into high-grade spirit stones, would be equivalent to thirty thousand high-grade spirit stones. The ratio of spirit stones was 1:100.

Yun Shang came out of the spiritual spring, cast a drying spell on herself, and then changed into a clean pink high-quality robe.

She put more than 300 pieces of top-grade spirit stones into the wooden house, and then she flashed out of the space directly;

There are still ten days before recruitment of mayor sect began. Yun Shang felt that she had too little equipment on her for her safety.

As for defensive magic weapons, she don't have them yet. In addition to buying a defensive magic weapon, she also need a flying magic weapon.

Only when a cultivator reaches the foundation-building stage can he fly with a sword. Without a flying device, traveling would be very inconvenient.

Yun Shang suddenly realized that she was lacking a lot of things, making up her mind to go to market.
