I Have A Martial Arts Panel - Chapter 252
Chapter 252 Dao Realm Third Stage
After knowing that the Swallow Heron Sect had received the support of the prince, the elders and disciples of the sect were all excited.
This way, the Swallow Heron Sect could appear in front of everyone.
Everyone in the sect was excited. As for Xu Ning, he returned to his room, ready to advance his strength to the third stage of the dao realm.
Xu Ning first entered the Hidden Moon Bead and absorbed 2.2 million units of energy, preparing his energy reserves to advance to the origin returnance realm.
After consuming and giving a portion of the resources to Cheng Zengtao, the energy value of the resources in the Hidden Moon Bead was still 5 million units.
After absorbing 2.2 million units, there were less than 3 million units left.
Although their reserves were decreasing, as long as he had the strength to guarantee it, it would not be difficult to accumulate more resources.
‘Martial Arts Panel.’
Xu Ning opened his Martial Arts Panel and clicked “+” next to his realm.
Consume 2.2 million units of energy to advance to the third stage of the dao realm?
Yes / No
After Xu Ning was certain, the elementary form of the inner core in his body began to rotate faster.
It stimulated a large amount of attribute true origin power, increasing the strength of Xu Ning’s body and dao realm power.
Compared to before, Xu Ning’s dao realm power was stronger and more unyielding.
‘Compared to the previous astral qi realm, there’s no qualitative change in this advancement.
Xu Ning thought to himself, ‘The origin returnance realm essentially builds a good foundation for the core materialization realm, creating a good guarantee. Only when the reserves of the origin returnance realm are plentiful and the foundation is firm will the risk of advancing to the core materialization realm be reduced. Only then can the quality of the inner core be higher.’
‘However, although it is not a qualitative change, my strength has been greatly improved.’ ‘And since I finally reached the origin returnance realm, I can refine my own dao weapon now.’
Xu Ning felt the changes in his body. ‘A single attribute master can refine a single attribute dao weapon, while a dual attribute or a master of a special technique can refine a dao weapon that is compatible with all attributes.’
‘But refining a dao weapon itself is a time-consuming task. I still have the Cyan Wolf Knife in my hand, so there is no need to refine any.”
Xu Ning’s Cyan Wolf Knife and Cyan’s Cyan Wolf Fan were obtained from a mystic realm by Wan Ye.
A portion of the cyan wolf’s will was sealed in it, and its strength lay between an ordinary dao weapon and a secret treasure.
And Cyan, the cyan wolf, was also taken out of the mystic realm by Wan Ye at that time.
At that time, Cyan was still an egg, and it only hatched after it was brought out by Wan Ye.
‘Now that I have advanced to the origin returnance realm, my next step is to advance to the core materialization realm.’
Xu Ning tested on the Martial Arts Panel and discovered that it required 4.5 million units of energy to advance from the origin returnance realm to the core materialization realm.
This time, Xu Ning did not need to do anything special to advance.
However, the problem about his lack of energy appeared once again. In fact, according to Xu Ning’s expectations, if he didn’t give 30% of the resources to Cheng Zengtao, he still had enough energy left in his hands to help him advance to the core materialization realm.
However, after distributing the resources, Xu Ning was a little short on energy.
After weighing his options, Xu Ning did not plan to take it back.
He had already handed over this portion of the sect’s resources, so it was inappropriate to ask for it back.
‘I still need 1.7 million units of energy to advance to the core materialization realm. Let’s see if I can use Shi Chenghao’s connections to contact some people who are in urgent need of refining complicated pills. If everything goes well, I can gather them in a short time.’
At first, Xu Ning planned to take back the old site of Swallow Heron Sect after advancing to the origin returnance realm.
But after breaking through, Xu Ning felt that it was more appropriate to advance to the core materialization realm.
Moreover, he needed some time to replenish the gray fog in the Wind Smoke Gourd.
The news of the Swallow Heron Sect relying on the prince will definitely spread quickly. If I’m not wrong, there should be many people coming to Guanghe Canton to seek refuge.’
Xu Ning thought about this.
‘The Swallow Heron Sect should be welcoming the first wave of rapid growth…’
After two days, Prince Duan Chaofeng left Guanghe County.
Generally speaking, after the prince left, the big families in Guanghe Canton should settle down.
But now, the big families were being very active.
That was because everyone had received a piece of news over the past two days.
In Guanghe Canton, there was a small sect called the Swallow Heron Sect that had received the support of the prince.
Although most people had no impression of the Swallow Heron Sect, everyone now realized that the Swallow Heron Sect, which relied on the prince, was soon going to prosper.
All of a sudden, the major families were urgently dispatching elites of the family to be sent to the Swallow Heron Sect as disciples.
The big families in Guanghe Canton knew very well that although everyone in Guanghe Canton was outstanding, they were still far behind the Harmony Prince.
It could be said that this was their only chance to come into contact with the Harmony King Mansion.
If the younger generation performed well after entering the Swallow Heron Sect, then there was a high probability that they would be noticed by the prince.
When that time came, the entire family would benefit from this.
Because of this, the Swallow Heron Sect, which was previously extremely unpopular, suddenly became popular.
After this change happened, the Cheng family actually benefited the most.
About this, Cheng Jinxian was overjoyed.
He wanted to secretly help the Swallow Heron Sect rebuild and gamble on Xu Ning, hoping to gain some long-term benefits in the future. But he didn’t expect that in the blink of an eye, the long-term benefits would suddenly explode just after a short period of time. Other than investing some outer family members into a suburban villa and taking on some risks, he did not invest anything else.
However, although he was happy, Cheng Jinxian was not blinded.
Some of the family members who knew the inside story urged Cheng Jinxian to select some outstanding disciples and send them to the Swallow Heron Sect. But after thinking about it, Cheng Jinxian refused.
Cheng Jinxian knew very well that the core disciples of the Swallow Heron Sect were all from the Cheng family.
This was nothing when the foundation of the Swallow Heron Sect was weak, but now, if they continued to send members of the Cheng family in, the Swallow Heron Sect would fall into the hands of the Cheng family.
If that happened, Xu Ning would definitely suspect him.
Now, Xu Ning was different from before, so Cheng Jinxian naturally valued Xu Ning.
Of course, Cheng Jinxian also knew that although there were many Cheng family members who were sent to the Swallow Heron Sect, their aptitude was not outstanding. Thus, they had to send a Cheng family disciple with top-notch aptitude. Only then could they occupy a high position in the Swallow Heron Sect in the future.
Cheng Jinxian already had a top disciple in mind, but he had to wait a while before Cheng Zengtao could send him in.
Swallow Heron Sect
“Brother Shi, long time no see!”
Xu Ning personally greeted Shi Chenghao on this day.
Over the past few days, the Swallow Heron Sect had been filled with visitors.
Some came to build relationships, while others came to find a master.
Xu Ning left all these chores to Cheng Zengtao and the others.
He was only responsible for meeting the family heads of some big families and selecting core disciples.
Shi Chenghao came to visit today. If it were anyone else, they would have been greeted by Cheng Zengtao and the others, there was no need for Xu Ning to come.
But Xu Ning and Shi Chenghao had established a friendship before, so he had to give him face.
“Sect Master Xu, you really are unfathomable!”
Shi Chenghao quickly stepped forward with a smile on his face.
Shi Chenghao was filled with glory when he saw Xu Ning welcoming him personally.
Xu Ning was now the most famous person in Guanghe Canton. When other families came to visit, only the family head could receive such treatment, but he himself enjoyed it.
“Brother Shi, don’t blame me. The sect was weak in the past, so we could only rebuild it in secret. We didn’t dare to expose it. But now that the prince suddenly favors us, the situation has improved a little.”
Xu Ning treated Shi Chenghao as an equal, which made Shi Chenghao feel warm.
He knew very well that his investment in Xu Ning was not in vain.
“We have established a friendship, so now that the Swallow Heron Sect is in the process of rebuilding, I want to help.” Shi Chenghao then said, “Plus, my family was already asking me to bring some gifts. I have already handed them to Brother Cheng. I hope they can help the Swallow Heron Sect.”
“Thank you, Brother Shi.”
Xu Ning did not refuse.
Over the past few days, the visitors had given a lot of martial arts resources as a gift, so the resources of the Swallow Heron Sect had once again increased.
“Brother Xu, I have a request.”
After a few words of pleasantries, Shi Chenghao said.
At this moment, Shi Chenghao had been personally led to his villa by Xu Ning. This was a treatment that the rest did not receive.
“Go ahead.”
Xu Ning could already guess what Shi Chenghao was thinking.
“There are many elite disciples in the Shi family who want to enter the Swallow Heron Sect to cultivate. What do you think about this, Brother Xu?”
Shi Chenghao’s words were within Xu Ning’s expectations.
“How many people?”
Xu Ning asked.
Shi Chenghao paused and said half-jokingly, “Of course the more the better!”
The two looked at each other and laughed.
“Enough jokes.”
Shi Chenghao saw that Xu Ning did not agree, so he said, “I want to send five descendants to the Swallow Heron Sect.”
“Too many.”
Xu Ning said, “There are only two spots for the disciples sent by the other families to the Swallow Heron Sect: one core disciple and one inner disciple.”
The Swallow Heron Sect had already established a standard system, with core disciples, inner disciples, and outer disciples as ranks.
The core disciples were all from the big families in Guanghe Canton. The inner and outer disciples mainly included young people from ordinary backgrounds in Guanghe Canton who had passed the assessment.
Shi Chenghao frowned, realizing that his proposal was a little too much. “However, I will give the Shi family three spots.”
Xu Ning said, “Moreover, since you and I are old friends, I can accept one of the disciples as my personal disciple, and the other two can also receive the core disciple status.”
Shi Chenghao was overjoyed. “Thank you, Brother Xu!”
The value of this single personal disciple was even higher than the five ordinary core disciples.
Shi Chenghao truly felt Xu Ning’s respect.
“Brother Shi, you’re too polite.”
Xu Ning waved his hand.
Shi Chenghao was happy. He knew very well that with his relationship with Xu Ning, his status in the family would be higher.
Originally with his aptitude, he could only work in the family business.
Now, he had a chance to become a clan elder.
