Wood Dragon Qi! Water Yin Thunder! Mirror Flower Water Moon Technique

After exchanging 40,000 Merit Points for Jade Slip for cultivating the Qi Escape Technique, Chen Dengming then spent another 100,000 Merit Points and two Level 1 privileges to exchange for two Life Returning Pills.

This kind of pill is not easy to refine, and the inventory within the Counterattack Cultivator Alliance is very limited. It is an essential precious pill for Nascent Soul Cultivator to preserve their Physical Body.

At this point, you have many battle merits, so exchanging for two more will still give you a high value, even if you don't need them in the future.

After exchanging all of these, and adding his accumulated battle merits, he still had over 200,000 battle merits, one level-one authority, and three level-two authority.

Chen Dengming then used 180,000 battle merits and all his privileges to exchange for three fourth-tier Technique Method and a weapon -Artifact Refining Technique the Artifact Sect.

The Technique Method are <Eastern Wood Dragon Qi Technique>, <Water Yin Thunder Technique>, and <Mirror Flower Water Moon Technique>.

The former can quickly condense the highest quality Dongfang Jia Wood Spiritual Energy and transform it into a dragon-shaped puppet to fight enemies. This type of Spiritual Qi is also known as dragon energy. If used in conjunction with the Five Dragon Overlord Hand, it may have miraculous effects.

The middle type can condense Spiritual Qi into the sinister and domineering Kui Water, from which Yin Thunder is generated, sharp and relentlessly entangled, making it one of the most ferocious water-based Technique Method.

The latter can quickly condense numerous clones that resemble reflections in a mirror or the moon in the water, with an aura completely identical to the original. This not only confuses the enemy but can also, to some extent, deflect their attacks.

This Technique Method is somewhat similar to the "Scattering Flowers from a Celestial Maiden Technique" and the "Scattering Beans into Soldiers Technique," but it does not condense physical clones for combat. It is relatively easier to cast, consumes less Spiritual Qi, and can create more clones.

The final item exchanged was a precious weapon-refining Technique Method from the Artifact Sect, the most valuable Artifact Sect -refining technique besides the sect's signature technique, the "Myriad Artifact True Art," titled "Artifact Compendium."

This weapon-refining method records the refining methods, required materials, and refining tips for tens of thousands of different Law Treasure and Law Artifact, all in great detail.

Even the crafting methods for the third and fourth tiers of the Spirit Seizing Array Disk Chen Dengming had once obtained by currying favor with the Artifact Sect from the Artifact Sect are recorded in this comprehensive record, making it a veritable encyclopedia of artifact crafting.

The Merit Points and permissions required to exchange for this weapon-refining technique exceed those required for the three Technique Method Chen Dengming exchanged.

But it's definitely worth every penny.

The Artifact Sect fled too late when the Four Regions fell many years ago, and almost half of the sect's cultivators perished.

The other half of the cultivators also scattered into several groups and fled to the four seas.

Although they eventually reunited, their power was greatly diminished, and they were forced to submit the <Artifact Compendium> to the Four Seas Cultivation Alliance in exchange for resources and protection.

This <Artifact Compendium> thus entered the exchange Treasure Vault of the Counterattack Cultivator Alliance.

However, its high value of 100,000 battle merits and the exchange limit of a level one authority mean that very few people can exchange for this weapon-refining method, and those who can exchange for it probably don't need it.

Chen Dengming, on the other hand, had accumulated so many military achievements that he had nowhere to use them.

Such a valuable weapon-refining method is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity; we may not have another chance like it in the future, so we should acquire it now.

With this weapon-refining method, plus the insights bestowed by the Six-Browed True Lord, it would be enough to improve his wife He Yingyu's weapon-refining skills.

Even if the girl doesn't need it, the information recorded in this book can still be sold for a considerable amount of spirit crystals and resources.

After exchanging all the supplies, Chen Dengming used up all his War Merit Authority and only had 20,000 battle merits left.

He politely declined the invitation from the special envoy to join the Hundred Immortals, saying that he needed to continue his secluded cultivation in order to break through his cultivation realm as soon as possible.

The envoy smiled to show his understanding, but inwardly he felt helpless and speechless.

As everyone knows, Sect Leader Chen only broke through to the Nascent Soul Early Stage in recent years.

Once you reach the Nascent Soul Strength Realm, once you go into seclusion to cultivate, it can easily take decades.

To break through, even to a minor realm, even with exceptional talent, one often has to start from hundreds of years ago.

Continuing to break through will be easier said than done.

It's likely that by the time the great battle between the Counterattack Cultivator Alliance and the Outer Domain Evil Cultivator ends, Fighting Longevity Lord will still be stuck in the Nascent Soul Early Stage.

Chen Dengming, however, had his own plans and thoughts.

This invitation to the Hundred Immortals clearly indicates that the purpose of the visit is not simply to sit down, drink tea, and chat; it is very likely to discuss a counterattack plan against the Outer Domain Evil Cultivator.

He is now ranked third on the Kill List by the Outer Domain Evil Cultivator, and is at the center of the storm.

Attending the conference at this time would easily make one a target of criticism; even if one doesn't want to, one might be forced to. It's better to keep a low profile and bide one's time.

Several days later.

Behind the Longevity Sect, a Spirit Spring flows like a thread, resembling scattered jade and silver, or a string of white silk threads weaving through the crevices of the mountain wall, producing a tinkling sound like the harmonious ringing of metal and stone.

A string of bubbles suddenly gushed out from a stone hole, miraculously emerging from the water's surface along the crack in the stone, before bursting apart like a dreamlike bubble, turning into a wisp of green mist that vanished in an instant.

"Swish swish--"

Suddenly, a series of sharp, thick wooden spears flew out from the forest, like Boundless Falling Wood Rustling Down, the wind howling as they fiercely shot through the green air, yet they quickly passed through it.

The azure mist was only slightly disturbed before continuing its journey and landing on the shore unaffected.

As the azure aura surged, Chen Dengming's figure materialized.

From the woods on the opposite bank emerged another figure Chen Dengming, with green hair and a smile on his face.

"The Qi Escape Technique is indeed extraordinary. It transforms into a wisp of Spiritual Qi and can freely escape through the air. Even if attacked, it will not cause much damage unless it is an attack against a wisp of Spiritual Qi that is incompatible with it."

Even if it's a conflicting Spiritual Qi, it can negate most of the damage.

Chen Dengming secretly praised him.

It's only been three days since he started learning the Qi Escape Technique. He's only just begun, and the spell takes a breath to cast, so he can't cast it instantly yet. His escape speed is also quite slow.

However, with his top-grade Spiritual Root Potential and his current profound Law Power, he can cultivate this escape technique very quickly, reaching the master level in just a few months.

"Let's try other Technique Method."

As Chen Dengming made a hand seal, a flash of Cyan Light appeared on his body, and another clone appeared.

In the next instant, three Jade Slip flew out of the Storage Bag, flashing with spiritual light, and two of them flew into the hands of the two Heavenly Immortal Clones.

Chen Dengming placed the Jade Slip on his forehead, and a wisp of his Divine Sense quickly entered the Jade Slip to browse the information within.

The other two clones followed suit, focusing their attention on three things at once, simultaneously comprehending the <Eastern Wood Dragon Qi Technique>, <Water Yin Thunder Technique>, and <Mirror Flower Water Moon Technique>.

At this point, the advantages of the spiritual successor become fully apparent.

Even ordinary cultivators find it difficult to multitask while casting spells, let alone multitask to comprehend three Technique Method simultaneously.

However, Chen Dengming could do it without interfering with each other, which was no different from focusing on comprehending a single Daoist technique.

He has been doing this all these years, sending several clones to cultivate simultaneously while he cultivates himself, without any pressure.

Soon.

As the obscure incantation was recited, Chen Dengming quickly formed a hand seal.

From the eastern direction, near the sun, streams of deep green wood- Wood Spiritual Energy converged, gradually forming a gigantic dragon shape, radiating a powerful dragon aura.

Roar!!--

A tremendous Dragon's Roar suddenly appeared in the air, and a huge, deep blue dragon head appeared in front of Chen Dengming. Its whiskers fluttered as it swayed its massive body, which was almost as large as the nearby mountains, and it roamed in the air, exuding a sense of oppression.

Rumble rumble--

The spring water was instantly stirred up by the gale whipped up by the dragon formed of Spiritual Qi, gushing and overflowing, leaping into the stream, spraying water waves and splashing the entire canyon with shimmering silver pearls.

"Go--"

With a flick of Chen Dengming's finger, the giant dragon roared, whipping up a fierce wind. Its tail swept across, slicing through many trees in half with a loud crash, before soaring into the sky, piercing through the clouds and mist with astonishing force.

At this moment, the other two clones also successfully cast their spells.

A clone's hands gathered water- Spiritual Qi, creating rings of water that appeared and disappeared, twisting and changing. When sunlight shone on it, winding purple arcs of electricity appeared in the water, exuding a chilling and dangerous aura.

Guishui Yin Thunder!

Another clone was in the vast mist. Suddenly, the mist emitted a shimmering light, and as the mist swirled, the shimmering light reflected countless figures like mirrors, densely covering the mist.

A mirage!

"Roar!--"

At Chen Dengming 'Dao Intent, the Dongfang Jia Wood Roar, which had soared into the Sky Dome, swooped down, its mouth condensing into a ball of azure spiritual Spiritual Qi radiating a strong Spiritual Qi.

Boom!--

A dazzling Cyan Light burst forth from the dragon's mouth, like a mighty river breaking through a dam and cascading down, rushing straight into the mist and sweeping rapidly.

Bang bang bang!--

The figures within the mist were immediately torn apart by this domineering force.

But these torn clones were like living crystals, clamoring and swirling as they collapsed, reflecting streaks of Cyan Light that shot towards the Jia Wood.

However, since the Jia Wood was formed from the Nascent Soul Power, the scattered Cyan Light that rebounded and dispersed shot onto the dragon's body, posing no threat.

At that very moment, another Heavenly Immortal Clone released Guishui Yin Thunder.

"Crackling sound—" The white water rings, mixed with lightning and thunder, struck the massive Jia Wood with incredible speed.

Boom--

A gash appeared on the body of the Jia Wood Dragon, followed by a thunderous roar that shook the earth. The Jia Wood Dragon's body was instantly ignited, and it was thrown backward, crashing heavily onto the hillside.

At this moment, amidst the mist, the numerous shattered mirror images transformed into puddles of water, foaming white, meandering through the rocky valley.

Whoosh--

A Heavenly Immortal Clone emerged from a mirror that had not yet collapsed and merged with the Heavenly Immortal Clone that released the Guishui Yin Thunder.

"Good!"

Chen Dengming watched this scene with satisfaction.

Then he looked at the Jia Wood, which had taken flight again.

This Jia Wood Dragon of Wood exhibits extraordinary self-healing abilities.

In that instant, the cracks torn open by the Guishui Yin Thunder began to heal, and the flames on his body gradually died down.

After all, it was formed from the Nascent Soul Power and the Wood Spiritual Energy element, so its recovery ability is quite strong.

However, the power of Guishui Yin Thunder is also formidable.

Wood is inherently highly immune to Thunder Method, but when Gui Water invades the body of Jia Wood Dragon, the destructive power of Yin lightning becomes superconducting, naturally making it even more lethal.

In short, Chen Dengming was very satisfied with the four Technique Method he obtained from the Counterattack Cultivator Alliance. He rediscovered the excitement he had when he was a weak child and would eagerly cultivate any high-level Technique Method he acquired.

With a wave of his hand and a hand seal, he cast the <Reverse Glory Spring Return Technique>.

The Jia Wood let out a terrifying roar, transforming into a surge of powerful Wood Elemental Spiritual Energy Rong Qi that merged into the two Heavenly Immortal Clone avatars, replenishing their depleted power.

After finishing these tasks, leaving his two clones to clean up the mess on the back mountain, Chen Dengming leisurely departed.

Back in his cave abode, after handing over the <Artifact Compendium> he had obtained to his senior sister He Yingyu, he moved the girl to tears once again.

Regardless of whether the sun was near the mountains or whether the Yellow River would flow into the sea, the two seized the time to quickly cultivate and deepen their marital bond.

Afterwards.

Chen Dengming, with He Yingyu's help, put on ordinary silk robes.

"You're the head of a sect now, yet you always dress so casually when you go out. Even if you're casual about yourself, you should at least consider the feelings of your sect's disciples."

He Yingyu, delicate hands to fasten the last button on Chen Dengming's shirt, and frowned as she spoke.

Chen Dengming smiled and shook his head, "This trip might involve some fighting. It's a minor inconvenience, but wearing the robes could easily damage them, so let's forget about it."

The Incense Clone communicated with Qiu Feng and his companion, who were trapped in the perilous area, today. However, they were not absolutely certain of rescuing them and therefore sought help.

Fortunately, although the place was somewhat remote, it was still within the Eastern Region, so Chen Dengming decided to make the trip himself.

Upon hearing her Husband's words, He Yingyu was both amused and exasperated.

Others wear robes not only for aesthetic reasons, but more importantly, to protect themselves from harm.

My partner is so kind; he's always worried about ruining the robes. Is it the robes that protect him, or he who protects the robes?

"My weapon-forging skills have improved a lot. I can forge a top-tier third-order robe in a month at most. Isn't that enough for you? If it breaks, I'll forge another one for you."

He Yingyu sat in Chen Dengming's lap, rolled her eyes at him, crossed her long legs in stockings, and said indulgently.

Chen Dengming sighed, patted the girl on the back, and said, "It's easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but difficult to go from extravagance to frugality."

There's really no need for that. Not only will it waste materials, but it will also drain your energy. You know how strong my body is; even a magic robe can't protect me."

You bad guy!

He Yingyu flushed slightly, making her even more beautiful and alluring. Her pair of beautiful eyes were brimming with charm, enough to steal the soul of any man. She blinked her eyes curiously.

"Speaking of which, I've never seen that body you've been talking about that can transform into a gigantic eighteen-zhang tall form. When will you let me witness it?"

"Next time, next time for sure," Chen Dengming chuckled dryly.

Sometimes couples make jokes during casual conversations, but these should only be taken as jokes. If you take them seriously, things could get messy.

With his magnificent and imposing Ancient Human Immortal Physique, eighteen feet tall, no exaggeration, it's like a cannon; even a mountain placed in front of him would be shattered by a single blow.

"I might not be back for a few days this time. Black Panther and Jing'er are still at the Border Town. Make sure to send someone to pick them up."

"I'll go myself. Picking up two children isn't a big deal, but I don't trust other disciples to do it."

The two chatted about everyday things, and when they mentioned Chen Jing and Yi Ran, they both sighed inwardly.

Children and grandchildren have their own blessings, and they also have their own destinies.

Chen Jing and Chen Yiran are both just mortals, destined not to enjoy a long lifespan.

Even if Chen Dengming provides some longevity-enhancing Spiritual Material, this son and daughter will still die of old age in another seventy or eighty years.

Therefore, Chen Jing and Chen Yiran wanted to follow the Black Cloud Leopard back to the Four Regions.

In Chen Dengming's eyes, they are still children.

But in reality, Chen Jing and Chen Yiran are over fifty years old and want to return to their roots, to their original hometown.

Everything is predestined; nothing is up to us.

The idea that "Man Conquers Heaven" depends on who uttered that slogan. It was uttered by the most powerful Ancient Immortal among the human immortals, but even so, in the end, the Ancient Immortal could only be said to have achieved a miserable victory over the Heavenly Dao.

Therefore, aside from being unable to create Spirit Root for Chen Jing and Chen Yiran so they could cultivate immortality, Chen Dengming tried his best to fulfill their many other wishes.

This time was no exception.

Just as Chen Dengming was preparing to set off for the perilous place to help Qiu Feng and the other two escape their predicament.

Another Martial Immortal Clone, which had infiltrated the Mingyun Mountain Range, a stronghold of Outer Domain Evil Cultivator, found itself in a chaotic Gathering Place of cultivators not far from the entrance to the Southern Seeking Realm.

The Gathering Place appeared to have been abandoned long ago; the vast area was completely deserted.

The houses built on both sides were also pitch black, without any lights at night, and even filled with an eerie atmosphere.

This place was clearly a former wasteland. After the forests were cleared and the resources were taken away, it was abandoned and appeared quite dirty and messy.

Everywhere was littered with the trash discarded by low-level cultivators.

You can see many clothes scattered around the house, broken furniture, some old bottles and jars, and sometimes even bones buried in the soil and blackened bloodstains.

It is clear that before the low-level cultivators who pioneered this place left, there was an inhumane massacre.

Some Devil Cultivator have plundered the souls of other cultivators, causing this place to be filled with Yin Qi aura and a hint of resentment.

If no cultivators exorcise the evil spirits, this place will inevitably become haunted by malevolent forces over time.

The Martial Immortal Clone explored this place and was about to leave when it suddenly discovered unusual fluctuations of ghostly energy in a corner of the ruins.

"Are you... you are Chen Dazhenxian? Is that you?"

"Um?"

The Martial Immortal Clone suddenly stopped, his eyes shining like silver torches in the darkness, instantly locking onto the vengeful spirit in the corner.

The ghost let out a miserable cry, feeling as if it were about to be completely destroyed under the overwhelming spiritual power of the Martial Immortal Clone, and immediately begged for mercy.

The Martial Immortal Clone suddenly vaguely recognized this ghostly spirit.

"It's you?"

The instant the Martial Immortal Clone recognized the ghost, it swiftly transmitted the discovery to its true self through telepathy.

This was all because this vengeful spirit turned out to be an old acquaintance from the Martial World he had once sought out in the south.

But that old friend was once just Xiantian, even though he possessed the same aptitude as Wang Shiduo and had received the Immortal Method that Jiang Qiang had given him when he was trying to win him over in Zhanxian City.

However, it's impossible for him to cultivate and become a cultivator in the south.

If one does not become a cultivator, one's soul will instantly dissipate after death, so how could it remain here as a lingering ghost?
