Immortality: My talent for cultivating immortals can be refreshed.

Chapter 582 The best of both worlds
Xuan Chenzi stared at the scene in a daze, his face full of disbelief.

How come the yellow sand magic plate was broken and the earth rhinoceros dragon not only did not pose a threat to them.

Instead, Chu Ning took away even his soul in just one or two rounds.

At this moment, the dying ground rhinoceros below obviously had the same idea.

Lying on the sand, it finally came to its senses.

“Although this person is in the middle stage of the Nascent Soul, his magical powers have long surpassed those of ordinary late stage Nascent Souls.

I originally thought that the yellow glow shield magic weapon was his most powerful weapon.

Now it seems that he just did it casually."

After thinking it over, the Earth Rhino immediately said:

"This fellow Taoist has extraordinary magical powers. I am willing to be your contracted spirit beast."

Hearing the pleading words from the Earth Rhinoceros Dragon, Chu Ning slowly landed in front of the other party.

"Are you willing to be a contracted spirit beast now?"

"Yes!" The Earth Rhinoceros Dragon struggled to stand up and nodded its huge head.

“I didn’t know that you had such powerful divine powers before, and I am a little bit dissatisfied.

Now that I have witnessed fellow Taoist's supernatural powers, considering his cultivation level and age, it is only a matter of time before he advances to the late Nascent Soul stage.

Perhaps I can gain some enlightenment here and advance to the Divine Transformation Stage. It won’t be a disgrace for me to follow you.”

When Chu Ning heard this, he smiled faintly.

“But, I changed my mind.

I have my eyes on your tenth-level demon beast spirit."

As he spoke, Chu Ning raised the Earth Spirit Sword in his hand.

"After this magic weapon of mine devours your spirit, its power will be greatly enhanced."

When the Earth Rhinoceros Dragon heard this, a complex look flashed in his eyes.

After a moment of silence, it raised its head and looked at Chu Ning again.

There was a hint of decisiveness in his eyes.

"I am willing to serve as your contracted spirit beast and give you my spirit to increase the power of your magic weapon."

"Oh?" Chu Ning looked at this tenth-level monster who was so aware of the current situation with some surprise.

“But without the spirit, most of your cultivation and magical powers will be wasted.

You may be able to linger on and wait for the day when you will be free.

But for me, a rank 10 monster that has lost its spirit and has no fighting power is not of much use. "

The Earth Rhinoceros Dragon shook his head at this moment, and then suddenly transmitted the message.

“Fellow Daoist, you may not know that our Earth Rhinoceros Dragon is an ancient spiritual beast and possesses a secret technique.

You can sacrifice your lifespan to split your spirit into two and nurture two spirits.

And it only takes about three years to nurture two spirits to be equally powerful.

If you return your spirit to me first, I can offer you another spirit that is just as strong three years later."

"Oh?"

Chu Ning was quite surprised to hear what the Earth Rhinoceros Dragon said.

It was the first time he heard of such secret techniques among spirit beasts.

This ground rhinoceros dragon is indeed worthy of being an ancient spiritual beast of heaven and earth.

At this moment, Chu Ning couldn't help but curiously asked:

"Then how much lifespan does it take to split your spirit? Why didn't you split and cultivate two spirits before?"

"This secret technique of mine was awakened from the inherited memory only after I was promoted to level nine."

The Earth Rhinoceros answered at this moment.

"The amount of lifespan required to split and cultivate the spirit at different times is also different. The earlier you do it, the less lifespan you will need.

As for me, after I have reached level ten, it will take me three thousand years to split.”

Having said that, the Earth Rhinoceros Dragon looked at Chu Ning with complicated eyes.

“I have been in Jiuyan Lingshan for tens of thousands of years, and I still have a lot of life left.

But it is not so easy to make up your mind to sacrifice 3,000 years of life."

After listening to this, Chu Ning nodded slightly.

He believed this to some extent.

A lifespan of three thousand years may only be thirty years compared to human cultivators.

But which monk is willing to give it up so easily?

Chu Ning thought for a moment and asked again:
"How did you get to Jiuyan Lingshan in the first place? How many monsters are there in this Lingshan now?"

"As far as I know, I am the only one in this mountain."

The Earth Rhinoceros Dragon sighed at this time, and his eyes suddenly showed a sense of vicissitudes.

“It’s been too long. When I was first brought into the Jiuyan Lingshan, I was only at the first level.

Not long after that, the master of Lingshan ascended to heaven, and Jiuyan Lingshan became a secret place, and we could no longer leave the mountain.

Over tens of thousands of years, some spiritual beasts were either killed by human monks who entered once every thousand years.

Or maybe he died at the end of his life.

I am the only one who has a long enough life span, and I have been hiding from human monks and have not been discovered, so I have survived until now."

After Chu Ning heard this, she raised her eyebrows slightly.

"Since you haven't met any monks for such a long time, why did you take the initiative to provoke a human monk this time?"

"I don't want to either!"

There was actually a hint of grievance in the Earth Rhinoceros' tone at this moment.

“There are too many cultivators entering Lingshan this time, and there are also cultivators who are at the semi-god level as you human cultivators call them.

I have been discovered and attacked several times by your human monks. If I hadn't escaped quickly, I would have died long ago.

Later, I met your companion in this sandstorm, and I was so angry that I attacked him."

Hearing this, Chu Ning couldn't help but feel a little sympathy for the Earth Rhinoceros Dragon.

He was trapped in such a place for tens of thousands of years shortly after he was born.

Watching the various spiritual beasts and demon beasts in this mountain slowly die.

They also have to be on guard against being hunted by human monks every thousand years.

After pondering for a while, Chu Ning said:

"Okay, I can promise you that I will keep you by my side as a contracted spirit beast and return your spirit to you.

But you must hand over the split and cultivated spirit to me three years later as agreed.

Of course, I won’t treat you unfairly if you encounter a treasure that can prolong the lifespan of a spiritual beast in the future.

I will also try my best to get it for you to make up for the loss of your life span."

When the Earth Rhinoceros heard this, a hint of joy suddenly appeared in his eyes and he nodded continuously.

It can still clearly distinguish between losing lifespan and dying directly.

Chu Ning did not hesitate any longer at this moment. He squeezed out a drop of blood from his fingers and injected it into the Earth Rhinoceros Dragon with the help of the contract spell.

Then, several spells were cast and landed on the Earth Spirit Sword.

After two breaths, the spirit of the Earth Rhino Dragon flew out from the sword.

The spirit had just been swallowed into the sword and Chu Ning had not yet driven out of the formation, so it had no effect on him.

As soon as the sword came out, it drilled directly back into the body of the Earth Rhinoceros Dragon.

The originally dying ground rhinoceros suddenly became full of energy.

Although he had just been injured by the two kinds of spiritual flames of heaven and earth, his body was still seriously injured.

However, with the help of the contract induction, Chu Ning could still clearly feel that his injuries were recovering rapidly.

“What an amazing recovery ability! No wonder it has been able to survive here for tens of thousands of years.

It seems that my decision was correct.”

There was a hint of strangeness on Chu Ning's face at this moment.

His first thought when he saw the Earth Rhino Dragon was not to kill it directly to obtain its spirit, but to take it in as a contracted spirit beast.

He was attracted by the beast's cultivation and its amazing defensive ability. Although he refined a beast spirit ring and gave it to Bai Ling.

But to be honest, Bai Ling is not actually very suitable for him to perform the secret arts of beast spirits.

After all, Bai Ling is only at level eight now, which is not enough.

Even if one were to use the secret technique of beast spirits, the improvement it could bring to oneself would probably be limited.

Moreover, Bai Ling is good at attacking and breaking bans, but her defense is average.

If he were to really use the secret technique of beast spirits, his ability to withstand damage might even be lower than his own.

But this ground rhinoceros is different. It is also a spiritual beast of heaven and earth. After tens of thousands of years, it has been promoted to level ten.

And his defensive power is amazing.

If one could really use this beast to perform the secret art of the beast spirit, one's own strength might indeed be qualitatively improved.

"If combined with the Mysterious Fate Technique, perhaps this Spirit Earth Rhinoceros Dragon will be able to recover from its injuries soon."

At this moment, Chu Ning was planning to heal the Earth Rhinoceros Dragon and then teach it the secret art of beast spirits.

However, he still did not take action immediately.

Xuan Chenzi is still here, so it’s a bit inconvenient.

Immediately, Chu Ning took out a magical medicine and let the Earth Rhinoceros Dragon eat it.

Then he put it directly into a spirit beast bag.

It was not until this moment that Xuan Chenzi flew over and bowed to Chu Ning and said:
"Congratulations, Fellow Daoist Chu, for taming a 10th-rank spirit beast!"

Although he did not hear the specific conversation between the Earth Rhino Dragon and Chu Ning, he saw the process of Chu Ning returning the spirit to the Earth Rhino Dragon.

I can guess a little bit in my mind.

Chu Ning smiled at this moment.

"This is all thanks to Fellow Daoist Xuanchen for bringing this opportunity to me."

Chu Ning didn't want to talk more about this topic, so he immediately asked:

"By the way, weren't you with Fellow Daoist Yuan Lang? How did you get targeted by the Earth Rhinoceros Dragon?"

Xuan Chenzi sighed softly after hearing this.

“After I entered Lingshan, I was unable to find Brother Yuan Lang, and I thought that there might be many monks in the palaces.

So they hurried all the way to Lingshan Cliff, and when they got there they found quite a few cultivators.

Moreover, more and more monks came later, and some of them even looked like those monks who had entered the realm of demigods in the legend. "

A trace of fear flashed across Xuan Chenzi's face at this moment.

"I guessed that there might be some big trouble at Lingshan Cliff, so I didn't dare to stay and prepared to go somewhere else.

After entering the sandstorm, I don’t know how I was discovered by the Earth Rhinoceros Dragon.

If you hadn't shown up in time, I'm afraid I wouldn't be able to save my life."

Xuan Chenzi narrated his experience in a few words.

Then he looked at Chu Ning and said seriously:

"Fellow Daoist, are you planning to go to Lingshan Cliff? Then I advise you not to go yet.

There were a lot of cultivators there, including several major sects, and even a demigod.

It might be dangerous for you to go there now."

When Chu Ning heard this, his brows raised slightly.

Since there are so many cultivators on Lingshan Cliff, and even a demigod has appeared, there must be a big secret.

Perhaps the so-called secret realm where one can experience and feel the cultivation of Master Jiuyan will appear there.

Chu Ning, who had already experienced the wonders of using the Nine Evolutions Body Refining Technique to drive his energy, couldn't help but feel a little moved at this moment.

“Although I don’t know what changes the spiritual energy of heaven and earth underwent back then.

But if my guess is correct, the advancement to the God Transformation stage should be related to Yuanli.

The third volume of the Nine Evolutions Body Refining Art is not complete, although it can mobilize the energy in one's body.

But it is still not enough to truly integrate the spiritual energy and the original power perfectly.

If you want to create your own martial arts, the best way is to learn from Master Jiuyan's practice and gain enlightenment.

After all, he was already halfway there that year."

With this thought in mind, Chu Ning said to Xuan Chenzi:

"Don't worry, fellow Daoist. Since I know that Lingshan Cliff is dangerous, I will act with caution."

Xuan Chenzi didn't say anything else at this time, and just bowed to Chu Ning again and said:
"Fellow Daoist Chu, be careful, I will leave first."

Chu Ning cupped her hands towards the other party.

"Please do as you wish, fellow Taoist. I am leaving too."

With that said, the two of them flew away in different directions.

In just a few breaths, under the cover of the yellow sand, the two could no longer see each other.

At this moment, Xuan Chenzi, who was flying, couldn't help but turn his head to look, then shook his head and smiled bitterly.

“We are both in the middle stage of Nascent Soul, but our cultivation is vastly different.

I knew before that Fellow Daoist Chu had amazing powers, but I never thought he was so powerful.

With his level of magical powers, he can be harmed even if he encounters a late Nascent Soul cultivator. No wonder he dares to cross the Lingshan Cliff.

I just don’t know if this demigod can exert his full strength under the oppression of the Nine Evolution Spiritual Mountain’s restrictions.”

After expressing his feelings, Xuan Chenzi immediately fled away quickly.

He doesn't have the ability to do this.

At this moment, Chu Ning, who had flown dozens of miles away, stopped.

After setting up a barrier casually, he summoned Bai Ling and the Earth Rhino.

Both of them were naturally a little surprised after seeing each other, and of course they could also feel the unique spirituality of the beasts of heaven and earth in each other.

“Bai Ling, it is said that there are demigods in this Lingshan Cliff. It might be dangerous if we go there rashly.

Now I want to teach the Xuanming Jue to Dixilong to help him heal his wounds.

At the same time, give him the beast spirit ring first, so that he can perform the beast spirit secret technique in an emergency."

When Bai Ling heard this, she took the beast spirit ring from her hand without saying a word.

"Master, this Taoist brother is now our companion, so the arrangements will be decided by you.

By the way, this magic weapon can greatly increase the power of our spells, so I will give it to this Taoist brother as well."

As she said this, Bai Ling was about to take off the psychic bracelet that she had obtained from Beihan.

Chu Ning waved his hand and said:
“No need, once he uses the beast spirit secret technique, he will no longer be able to drive the treasure.

You can only lend me your body, but you should keep this magic weapon."

After saying that, Chu Ning began to teach the Earth Rhinoceros Dragon's Mysterious Life Secret and the Beast Spirit Secret Art.

At this moment, the Earth Rhinoceros still felt a little uncomfortable.

Especially when he heard that the Beast Spirit Secret Art actually required him to lend his body to Chu Ning for his use, he was obviously not quite used to it as he had just become Chu Ning's contracted spirit beast.

However, after learning the complete beast spirit secret technique, the Earth Rhinoceros Dragon's concepts changed again.

Because after he discovered the secret art of beast spirits, although Chu Ning was in the lead, he was also able to exert great power.

As for taking damage, Chu Ning is not completely immune to damage.

This made him feel a lot better.

And after an hour, Chu Ning used the secret technique of the beast spirit to heal all his injuries.

This local rhinoceros dragon is even more amazing.

Especially when hearing Bai Ling say that she had been following Chu Ning since she was a child.

It only took him less than two hundred years to cultivate to this level, and there was a hint of strangeness in the look he gave Chu Ning.

“Such talent and aptitude is definitely not for ordinary people.

Maybe I have also encountered an opportunity?"

Thinking this in his mind, the Earth Rhinoceros Dragon became more comfortable with accepting his identity as a contracted spirit beast.

After Chu Ning's injuries as the Ground Rhinoceros Dragon recovered completely and he mastered the secret technique of the Beast Spirit, he did not stay any longer.

It transformed into a beam of light and flew towards the Lingshan Cliff in front of it.
