Killing God - Chapter 61
Chapter 61 Secret
Cultivators at the Qi Refining Realm, Because he did not open up the Jade Manor’s Qi Sea, Therefore, the spiritual energy absorbed into his body was scattered all over his Qi channels, In addition, their cultivation was not high, and their spiritual power was also weak. They were far from being comparable to cultivators with profound cultivation such as the Origin Condensation Realm and the Divine Concept Realm. Therefore, when they wanted to cultivate the Five Elements Technique, they would encounter a headache. That was because they always felt that their spiritual power was insufficient and did not obey orders.
Most of the time, Qi Refining Realm cultivators would use all their strength and could only mobilize one-third of their spiritual energy. This was because they had used up all of their energy in order to mobilize the spiritual energy that was lazily scattered all over their Qi meridians. Just doing this was enough to exhaust many Qi Refining Realm cultivators who had just learned the Five Elements Technique.
At this time, there would always be many Qi Refining Realm cultivators who envied those at the higher level of the Origin Condensation Realm because they had opened up the Jade Mansion Qi Sea and gathered all the spiritual energy in their bodies together. They were like arms pointing at each other, gathering all of their spiritual energy without expending any effort at all. Why would they have to work so hard? However, at that realm, there would be even more miraculous and powerful Dao Art divine abilities waiting for Origin Condensation Realm cultivators, so no one would spend more effort on this complicated Five Elements Technique.
At this moment, Shen Shi had encountered such a bottleneck. Even though he already knew about the Five Elements Technique and had already completed his knowledge of the technique earlier than ordinary people, he had also suffered a lot in the process of gathering spiritual energy within his body.
The Spiritual Energy in his Qi Veins was like a sleepy and lazy lazy person, scattered all over the place, Ignoring his attempts to stimulate mobilization, He was so busy that his head was covered in sweat for a long time, Shen Shi even felt as if he had once again sensed the kind of reaction he had when he first started cultivating, which caused him to have a splitting headache. He couldn’t help but sigh in his heart. This Five Elements Technique was indeed extremely difficult. No wonder the world’s cultivation world increasingly looked down on this technique. After all, compared to the power of the technique after cultivation, the effort that he had put in was truly not worth the loss.
Fortunately, Shen Shi’s temperament had always been calm and tenacious. Although cultivating the Five Elements Technique was rather difficult and painful, he still persisted. He struggled many times in the process. After an unknown amount of time, he finally managed to barely circulate enough spiritual energy in his body to see if he had activated the Water Arrow Technique.
According to the Water Arrow Technique, when the Spiritual Energy in one’s body was fully activated, the only thing left was to see if the spellcaster could sense the surrounding water-type Spiritual Energy. Of course, this also required constant tempering. As time went on, it would naturally be easy for one to succeed. However, when Shen Shi stared at his hand, According to the incantation, If the spell succeeds, He should have condensed a stream of water in his hand, Under the urging of Spiritual Energy, This seemingly gentle stream of water would be as sharp as an arrow, It was easy to pierce through a mortal’s body. Even for cultivators with a strong fruit body, water archery could cause considerable damage. Especially for Qi Refining Realm cultivators whose cultivation was not high, water archery could pose a great threat. However, for cultivators above the Origin Condensation Realm, the power of this rank 1 Five Elements Technique was very difficult to pose a threat.
He stared at his palm.
His palm was safe and sound, nothing happened.
After a while, Shen Shi laughed bitterly and put down his palm.
④
This was naturally the failure of his cultivation this time. However, cultivating the Five Elements Technique was always known for its difficulty. Shen Shi, who knew this well, did not think that he would succeed once. Instead, he was quite satisfied that he could barely complete the casting once in his first cultivation. Even though this casting had not succeeded in the end, the baldy did not succeed.
He sat quietly in the stone room and rested for a while. He was still in good spirits. After pondering for a moment, Shen Shi stood up, picked up the Cloud Talisman, opened the stone door, and walked out of the stone room.
After this night of cultivation, it was already deep in the night on Bluefish Island. The darkness enveloped the surroundings and was boundless. The sky was filled with stars. Starlight flickered, illuminating the human world.
The fresh and cool sea breeze blew over from afar and swept past his ears. After he breathed, he felt his mind awaken. The distant ocean seemed to have entered a deep sleep, lying quietly in the darkness. Only the never-ending sound of the tides echoed in the night of the bay.
The faint starlight was like water, falling on the pure white sand beach in front of him. It was silent and devoid of people, as if he was the only person in the world in the dead of night.
The sky was high and the sea was wide, and the night was deep and beautiful.
Shen Shi stepped down from the beach and slowly walked towards the seaside. The tidal sound of the sea gradually grew louder. By borrowing the faint starlight above his head, he could vaguely see the white waves surging in the distance.
The water vapor in the air seemed to be much denser.
This was also the reason why he had come to the seaside.
It was said that the Five Elements Dao Art had been cultivated to the extreme depths. No matter where the spellcaster was, even in the scorching desert with very little water vapor, a spellcaster with a profound cultivation could easily sense the water element spiritual energy and release the water element spell. However, for Shen Shi, who had just stepped into this path, this realm was clearly too far away. In fact, with the current decline of the Five Elements Technique, it was really a question whether there were such powerful spellcasters.
However, for beginners, the stronger the corresponding magic power they cultivated, the greater the possibility of sensing it. Bluefish Island was situated in the sea. Looking at the grandmist realms, there was probably no place more dense than the water vapor in the sea.
There was also a reason why Shen Shi had chosen water archery earlier instead of the fireball technique that most cultivators liked.
At this moment, listening to the sound of the ocean tide and sensing the water vapor pouncing towards him, Shen Shi’s spirits lifted. He found a tall and straight tree on the beach and sat down. Then, he began to cultivate the water archery again, trying to sense the water spiritual energy in the air.
Needless to say, after leaving the dry cave stone room and arriving at the seashore, his perception of water archery still seemed to be somewhat effective. He quickly sensed some of the surrounding water type spiritual energy. However, this time, he encountered another problem that he hadn’t encountered before, and that was that he was unable to gather and circulate the spiritual energy in his body.
The previous time he cultivated in the stone room, It took him a lot of effort to gather enough spiritual energy scattered in his Qi Veins, Almost one-third of his current spiritual power was cultivated. This was barely enough for him to cast the Water Arrow Technique. However, after failing, he cultivated again. The spiritual power from earlier had scattered all over the place and needed to recover its vitality. He could only gather more spiritual power from other Qi meridians further away.
It took him even more energy than before, and at the same time, it became more and more strenuous. After all, he had only just begun to cultivate the Five Elements Technique today. After a few pains, he was really tired to the point where his head hurt. Only then did he gather enough Spiritual Energy and prepare to activate the Water Arrow Technique again.
In the darkness, under the starlight, he closed his eyes and leaned against the big tree. The corner of his mouth seemed to have a faint smile of anticipation. Suddenly, a soft but clear sound of footsteps came from the darkness. He stepped on the sand on the beach and walked in his direction.
Cultivating the Five Elements Technique was different from cultivating spiritual energy. It would not really reach the state of total self-forgetfulness. Shen Shi quickly noticed the strange sounds around him. He was shocked. The spiritual energy that he had gathered earlier couldn’t be controlled by a single mistake, but it slowly dispersed again. All his previous efforts were in vain.
Shen Shi felt a burst of anger in his heart. “Teng!” He stood up and turned to look in the direction of the sound of footsteps with a furious expression. At the same time, he said with a hint of anger, “Who is it?”
The sound of footsteps suddenly came to a halt. Shen Shi was at a beach with several large trees side by side. In the darkness, the figure of a woman seemed to be somewhat surprised as she turned out from behind another large tree in front of her.
That figure, that appearance, borrowing the faint starlight in the sky, Shen Shi felt a burst of familiarity. He was immediately stunned and said, “Eh, why is it you, Qing … wrong!”
He saw that the woman who had suddenly arrived was actually someone he knew. It was Zhong Qingzhu. He was about to say hello in shock, but halfway through his words, Shen Shi suddenly frowned and noticed something strange. After carefully examining her, he said in surprise, “Why is it you, Zhong Qinglu?”
The girl who came was Zhong Qingzhu’s cousin, Zhong Qinglu. In terms of seniority, she should be a cousin. However, she was much better than Zhong Qingzhu in terms of family background. When she first entered the sect, Zhong Qingzhu was like her little follower, following Zhong Qinglu all day long.
Three years later, When we met at the beginning of the year, the fat girl, Zhong Qinglu’s figure had also changed greatly. Like Zhong Qingzhu’s, Zhong Qinglu’s figure had also grown. Furthermore, she looked even better than Zhong Qingzhu’s. She was slightly taller, and her figure looked extremely good. Even the loose and leisurely clothes of the Lingxiao Sect disciples could not faintly conceal her increasingly exquisite and bumpy figure.
But compared to a slim and beautiful figure that had grown up, Although Zhong Qinglu’s body was no longer fat, her face was still somewhat infant fat. Looking at the plump white face, it still slightly reduced her original beauty. However, it had to be said that Zhong Qinglu, who was 15 years old, was still much more beautiful than the fat girl who had just entered the island when she was 12 years old.
However, in the dead of night, Zhong Qinglu was alone. Why did she come to this quiet beach?
Shen Shi looked at her and asked his question with a frown.
Zhong Qinglu’s figure and appearance had changed. However, it seemed that her temper was similar to three years ago. She sized up Shen Shi from head to toe, but she had an imposing aura. She snorted and sneered, “What does it have to do with you? I’m bored to come out and walk in the cave. Do you still want to report it to you?”
Shen Shi was momentarily stunned, speechless.
However, looking at Zhong Qinglu’s appearance, there was even a hint of suspicion. She looked at Shen Shi and said, “Speaking of which, in the middle of the night, aren’t you here by yourself? What are you doing here?”
Shen Shi coughed dryly and said, “I’m bored in the cave. Come out and take a walk …”
Zhong Qinglu sneered and scoffed at Shen Shi’s apparently perfunctory reply. She muttered to herself, “The head of a deer, the eyes of a mouse, is either rape or robbery!”
After saying that, he snorted, shook his head, and turned around to leave. Shen Shi was left standing there in shock for a long time. He suddenly came to his senses and angrily said to her back, “Whoever has the head of a rat or mouse, and what does that mean? Tell me clearly what it means to be a rapist or a thief!”
Zhong Qing did not look back. She just raised her hand and waved it casually. The sea breeze blew past. Her clothes fluttered slightly in the starlight, revealing a white arm. Looking at the figure behind her, it was really beautiful. However, the gesture of her hand carried a trace of disdain and ridicule, causing Shen Shi to become half-dead angry.
However, after three years, they didn’t live far away from each other. Shen Shi also understood that this woman was usually like this. He didn’t really have the urge to go up and settle accounts with her. He just shook his head in his heart and sighed at his bad luck.
With great difficulty, Shen Shi calmed down. He regained his spirits and tried to cultivate the water archery twice. However, he failed without exception. He had no choice but to drag his tired body and walk towards the cave. At the same time, he gave Zhong Qinglu, who had disturbed him tonight, a few heavy greetings in his heart.
There was a distance between the beach and the cave. The sand was soft and Shen Shi walked slowly. After Zhong Qinglu left, no one appeared in this vast area. In the entire night, it was as if Shen Shi was the only one facing the heavens of the sea.
He walked slowly. Just as he was about to walk to the main road outside the cave, the corner of his eyes suddenly swept across the distance. However, he quickly walked past a figure on the main road. He looked familiar as well. Shen Shi stood in the darkness and narrowed his eyes slightly as he stared at the figure. For a moment, he almost thought that Zhong Qinglu had returned. However, a moment later, he was surprised to discover that the figure was Zhong Qingzhu.
In this quiet and quiet night, Zhong Qingzhu watched as he walked along the road with an expressionless expression. He quietly walked into the distance and soon disappeared into the darkness. Everything returned to calm.
Shen Shi silently walked back to his cave residence. He turned around and saw that there was only darkness in the distance that was so dense that it seemed impossible to melt away.
Everything was quiet, as if nothing had happened and no one had appeared. It was as if he had been the only one this night.
However, in this silent night, Zhong Qingzhu was alone. His whereabouts were somewhat mysterious, but where exactly was he going …
