Fengying Peng, with Exceptional Aptitude
The same scene unfolded at Azure Stone Mountain, not far away.
Ling Pengliang, who had just arrived at Azure Stone Mountain in early January to take over Ling Pengyun's Azure Stone Mountain, was quite excited as he listened to the Lineage's Sixth Elder, Ling Yunqian, recount the Lineage's plan to recruit him to kill Demon Beast.
Ling Pengliang in the prime of his life, and although he was Spirit Planter, he longed to fight with Demon Beast. However, due to clan rules, he could not leave the Clan Mountain without permission before the age of eighteen, which is why he had not yet had the chance to fight with Demon Beast.
Although he was released from the Clan Mountain ahead of schedule due to a shortage of manpower in the clan, he was also assigned by the Lineage to guard Azure Stone Mountain Azure Stone Mountain and take care of the Spirit Plant there, so he could not stay away for long.
The Demon Beast in the entire An Yang County had already been killed by Ling Yunhong several years ago, and there were no traces of Demon Beast around Azure Stone Mountain.
This situation also made fighting against Demon Beast increasingly distant from Ling Pengliang.
He had thought that the only time he would have to fight against Demon Beast was five years later, after he had completed his mission of guarding Azure Stone Mountain and ventured into the Cultivation World on his own. He never expected that an opportunity would be presented to him today.
"Eighteenth Grandfather, I'll handle this matter."
Seeing Ling Pengliang's delighted expression, Ling Yunqian, being a man himself and having also experienced the age of being somewhat ignorant about Demon Beast, naturally understood Ling Pengliang's thoughts.
He frowned immediately, a hint of worry appearing in his expression, and instructed, "You're quite perceptive, but don't underestimate the Demon Extermination War. There are at least tens of thousands of high-ranking Demon Beast in the hundreds of thousands of miles of Serpent Dragon Lake. You're only at the Qi Training Fourth Layer Refining. When the Lineage goes to exterminate demons, don't act rashly. Remember to stay close to the elders in the group."
Upon hearing Ling Pengliang's expression hardened slightly, and he replied, "Understood, Eighteenth Grandfather."
Ling Yunqian nodded slightly, waved his hand to take out two Law Artifact, and handed them to Ling Pengliang, saying, "Good that you understand. This is a First Rank Middle Grade Mystic Water Sword and Mystic Water Shield, one of the spiritual items the Lineage gave to the clansmen participating in the war. I will go to the Mystic Water Iron Mine in Azure Stone Lake later to inform your Thirteenth Grandfather about this. After that, you should hand over the matter of taking care of the Spirit Plant in Azure Stone Mountain to your Thirteenth Grandfather. After the handover is completed, immediately return to the clan and refine these two Law Artifact that I gave you."
"I'm leaving now; there are still a few people I haven't informed about the summons."
After saying this, Ling Yunqian rode a Immortal Spirit Crane and flew away from Azure Stone Mountain, diving into Azure Stone Lake.
Lingxiao Mountain, a courtyard halfway up the mountain.
A young man with a resolute expression saw Ling Ruda off at the door. After watching him leave, his eyes gleamed, and he muttered to himself.
"Now that I have mastered the Qi Refining chapter of the Geng Metal Swordplay Secret, my strength has increased by several times."
" With the Demon Beast Uprising, there are countless Demon Beast. If I can find some Demon Beast as opponents and fight them, it will surely deepen my understanding of Sword Intent."
"If I can condense a sword seed with Sword Intent before breaking through to the Foundation Establishment, it will make my breakthrough to the Foundation Establishment Realm much easier."
One month later.
In a quiet room, Ling Pengyun, as usual, fed Little Wind Shadow Peng half First Rank Low Grade Spirit Feeding Pill every ten days, hoping that Little Wind Shadow Peng could sense the Spiritual Qi in the Spirit Feeding Pill Spirit Feeding Pill through its effects and accelerate his entry into the Qi Refining Realm.
This time, Ling Pengyun had only fed the Little Wind Shadow Peng half a Spirit Feeding Pill when it collapsed to the ground and fainted.
During its coma, the bird's aura continued to strengthen, even drawing in the surrounding Spiritual Qi to merge into its body.
Seeing the strange phenomenon occurring on Little Wind Shadow Peng, Ling Pengyun's expression immediately brightened.
"This Little Wind Shadow Peng is finally about to break through to the Qi Refinement Realm. It's worth the six Spirit Feeding Pill I've spent on it over this period of time."
Little Wind Shadow Peng was at a crucial stage in his breakthrough to the Qi Refinement Realm, and Ling Pengyun found it difficult to calm his mind and practice his cultivation Cultivation Method. His gaze remained fixed on Little Wind Shadow Peng, and he prayed in his heart that Little Wind Shadow Peng would succeed in his breakthrough.
Even when one breaks through from the Innate Realm to the Qi Refining Realm, failure is still possible.
About half an hour later, a shattering sound came from inside Little Wind Shadow Peng's body.
"Click".
Immediately afterwards, the aura emanating from Little Wind Shadow Peng also reached the Qi Refinement Realm, and its body, like a vortex, absorbed a lot of Spiritual Qi in a short time, tempering its "mortal body".
During this tempering process, Little Wind Shadow Peng's body grew nearly twice its original size at a speed visible to the naked eye, reaching the size of two millstones.
Although its current size is still insufficient to carry people, Ling Pengyun can foresee that when this Little Wind Shadow Peng breaks through its cultivation level again and its size increases once more, it will definitely be able to carry people and fly.
After a hundred breaths, once the strange movements of Little Wind Shadow Peng's body had subsided, it also woke up from its coma.
Upon waking up, it sensed the enormous changes brought about by its slumber.
It has benefits such as possessing spiritual power, Divine Sense, wider wings, and greater strength.
Little Wind Shadow Peng was overjoyed and couldn't wait to tell Ling Pengyun that he wanted to go out and fly around to experience the speed brought by doubling in size.
"Go ahead." Ling Pengyun used his Object Manipulation Technique to open the door to the meditation room and nodded in agreement.
With the permission of its Master, Ling Pengyun, the Little Wind Shadow Peng flew out of the quiet room through the open door and soared freely in the sky above Lingxiao Mountain.
The increase in size did not slow down Wind Shadow Peng's speed; on the contrary, it made its wings more powerful, and its flight speed was several times greater than before it entered the Qi Refining.
Ling Pengyun, who followed him out of the quiet room, looked up at the speed of the Wind Shadow Peng flying in the sky and muttered to himself.
"Judging from Wind Shadow Peng's current speed, traveling one or two thousand miles a day should not be a problem."
"This roc is indeed known for its speed. However, it has already reached this speed at the very beginning of the Qi Training Stage. Perhaps it can be even faster once its cultivation is more stable."
After observing the soaring Wind Shadow Peng for a while, Ling Pengyun returned to the quiet room.
After returning to the quiet room, Ling Pengyun sat cross-legged on the Meditation Mat again. As usual, he took out the twelve Azure Bamboo Sword that Ling Yunhong had given him at the Hundred Spirits Sect's Wedding Feast, poured his Divine Sense into them, and at the same time refined the twelve flying swords, placing Divine Sense imprints inside the sword blades.
The time required to refine First-Tier Superior-Grade flying sword is extremely long. Ling Pengyun refined this set of twelve flying swords for nearly a month, but he only managed to place Divine Sense imprint on six of them.
While Ling Pengyun was back inside refining his flying sword, Wind Shadow Peng, which had been soaring freely in the sky above Lingxiao Mountain for several hours, suddenly flapped its wings, and specks of azure spiritual light gathered in front of it.
Within moments, the specks of azure spiritual light condensed into a wind blade about an inch long.
Upon seeing the wind blade form, Wind Shadow Peng was overjoyed. With a slight thought, he threw the newly formed wind blade at a boulder on the ground to test its power.
"Call out!"
The wind blade was extremely fast, making a whooshing sound as it pierced the air. In less than half a breath, it traversed dozens of feet and struck the boulder on the ground.
The boulder was like tofu in front of the wind blades, and was directly pierced through by them.
This matter greatly surprised Wind Shadow Peng.
It hadn't expected that the wind blade it had condensed would be so powerful.
A sense of pride welled up in its heart. It quickly landed back in the courtyard where Ling Pengyun lived, and forcibly dragged Ling Pengyun, who was refining Law Artifact, to the outside world to show Ling Pengyun the powerful wind blade.
When Ling Pengyun saw Wind Shadow Peng condense a wind blade and pierce through a boulder, he was overjoyed.
"Spending several hundred Spirit Stone to buy this Wind Shadow Peng Egg at the Huai River Little Meet back then was definitely not a bad deal."
"Judging from the fact that Wind Shadow Peng was born with Innate Perfection cultivation and has now mastered his Innate Spell so quickly, this roc's cultivation aptitude and comprehension are both excellent."
"It is a certainty that this Peng bird will reach the Qi Training Completion stage in the future. If given the opportunity, it is not impossible for it to reach the Foundation Establishment like its father."
Under normal circumstances, the higher the innate cultivation level of Demon Beast at birth, the better Demon Beast aptitude.
When Demon Beast enters the Qi Refining, the shorter the time it takes to master its Innate Spell, the higher Demon Beast comprehension level.
