Dragon Devouring Cultivation

Chapter 191 Secret Method
Qi Zhiyuan, a cultivator in the middle stage of foundation building from Cuihong Sect, stood on the deck of the flying boat, holding a compass in his hand.

In the cabin, a boy was looking at Qi Zhiyuan with a pair of frightened eyes. In his eyes, there was not only fear but also deep hatred.

The boy was a member of the Shifang Gugu clan and all the clan members with him were killed, he was the only one who survived.

The reason he was able to survive was not because of Qi Zhiyuan's kindness, but because Qi Zhiyuan needed the blood of the Gu clan members, preferably the blood of living people.

The compass in Qi Zhiyuan's hand is a tracking spiritual weapon. By injecting blood into it, it can display the locations of all people with the same bloodline within a hundred miles.

If there is no one with the same bloodline within a hundred miles, the compass will also show the approximate direction of people with the same bloodline within a thousand miles.

This kind of spiritual compass is the best means to hunt down monks from the same family. This spiritual compass is also called the genocide compass.

After determining the direction, Qi Zhiyuan increased the spiritual power input into the flying boat under his feet, and the speed of the flying boat increased sharply.

While looking at the genocide compass, he controlled the direction of the flying boat.

After a while, the needle of the genocide compass lost control and began to spin wildly.

He shook his head and waved his hand towards the boy in the cabin, blood oozing from his skin.

The boy wanted to struggle. He knew very well that his blood would bring disaster to his tribe. But let alone a child like him, even an adult cultivator would not be able to resist if caught by Qi Zhiyuan.

The seeping blood was suspended in the air, forming a pool. When the boy's face turned pale, Qi Zhiyuan stopped drawing blood.

The blood flew in front of Qi Zhiyuan and was sent into the genocide compass by him.

The red light on the genocide compass became brighter, and the needle turned to a direction that was exactly the direction the flying boat had flown to before.

Li Zhen had no idea that he and the others were being followed. At this time, his mind was in the Dragon Heart Space.

The spiritual marks on the openings of the three storage bags disappeared, and these three storage bags now completely belonged to him.

The three storage bags are not big, only one cubic meter, and most of them contain daily necessities, such as food, drinks, and even handheld game consoles.

The rest were some second-level elixirs, two jade slips, and a second-level general contract.

The two jade slips came from the special admissions student Hou Baiyan, and there were no other spiritual objects that caught Li Zhen's attention.

Li Zhen was not surprised. Although the cultivation base of the three storage bag owners was as high as the middle stage of foundation building and as low as the early stage of foundation building, they were just students after all. Even if they had income, they would spend it on cultivation.

The students are relatively poor, and the credits they earn will be used to increase their own strength. They are able to possess spiritual weapons and a considerable number of second-level elixirs, all thanks to the Huiteng Group behind them.

"Poor!" Li Zhen said to himself helplessly.

He looked at the second-level universal contract. This thing was extremely overbearing and could transform human monks into slaves.

This thing is an illegal item, but he looked at the environment he was in and it was fine in the ancient cultivation world.

Li Zhen used his spirit to enter a jade slip and saw the contents of the jade slip.

A smile appeared on his face. The contents of the jade slip were of great use to him.

This jade slip was exactly the one for the 'Dragon Trap Formation'. It contained a detailed explanation of the 'Dragon Trap Formation', including how to use twelve second-order formation flags to deploy the formation according to the environment. The details made it seem very easy for him to grasp.

The 'Dragon Trap Formation' is still very useful when necessary, but if it is not used properly, it will be like what happened to the three foundation-building monks of the Huiteng Group.

The 'Dragon Trap Formation' can trap a cultivator who has established his foundation, preventing him from escaping. This alone makes the 'Dragon Trap Formation' the first choice for ambushes and killings.

The description of the formation operation in the jade slip is extremely detailed. As long as you follow the explanation in the jade slip, you can set up the "Dragon Trap Formation" in a fool-proof manner.

"What a pity!" Li Zhen shook his head and thought to himself. He used the twelve second-level middle-grade formation flags in the third-level cave, and even with the "Dragon Trap Jade Slip", he still had no way to set up the "Dragon Trap Formation".

Li Zhen then put his mind into another jade slip. When his mind entered the jade slip, the jade slip transmitted a piece of information into his brain.

Then he saw the color of the jade slip turn white and the information inside quickly disappeared.

He thought of a special jade slip for preserving merit. This was a one-time jade slip. Every time the mind explored the jade slip, the information inside would be transferred to the brain, and the jade slip would have completed its mission.

Jade slips for preserving skills are a way of passing on some important skills, and their main purpose is to prevent the skills from being passed on to others.

Li Zhen checked the information in his mind, and found that it was a set of skills.

The name of the skill is 'Qingmu Nashu Gubenshu', which is a secret skill among all the skills, and it also contains Qingmu's skills. According to what Li Zhen had heard, only several inherited skills of Qingmu University would be named after Qingmu.

He was very curious about how this 'Qingmunna Tree Strengthening Technique' fell into Hou Boyan's hands, and how Hou Boyan hadn't even used his mind to investigate it once, so he got it for nothing.

The 'Qingmunnashu Gubenshu' was a promotion reward that Hou Boyan's family spent a huge amount of money to get him after he became a special recruit.

'Aoki Nashu Solidification Technique' is one of the core secrets of Aoki University and has incredible functions.

However, if you want this 'Qingmunna Tree Strengthening Technique' to be effective, you need to find a high-grade spiritual tree.

After Hou Boyan learned the 'Qingmunna Tree Strengthening Technique', he devoted all his energy to practicing the second-level spell for fear of being distracted. He wanted to gain a certain amount of self-protection power in a short period of time. This was more important than the 'Qingmunna Tree Strengthening Technique' which he could only watch but not learn.

The magic of the 'Qingmunna Tree Strengthening Technique' lies in that this secret method requires finding a high-grade spiritual tree, and through the 'Qingmunna Tree Strengthening Technique' the spiritual tree is incorporated into the body, thereby obtaining an all-round improvement in wood-related talents. At the same time, depending on the abilities of the spiritual tree itself, the abilities it possesses will also be different.

In the "Aoki Nashu Gubenjutsu", it is mentioned that the Aoki of Aoki University is the companion tree of the person who practiced the "Aoki Nashu Gubenjutsu" at that time. At that time, this secret technique was not called this name. It was only after the appearance of Aoki that the name was changed.

The powerful man left the companion tree behind and established Aoki University with the companion tree Aoki as its foundation.

Since Qingmu is the companion tree of Da Neng, Qingmu can no longer be affected by the 'Qingmu Tree Strengthening Technique'.

However, the secret method of 'Qingmunna Tree Strengthening Technique' is rarely taught to students of Qingmu University, because a long time ago, when 'Qingmunna Tree Strengthening Technique' was rampant, the high-grade spiritual trees in the fairyland were severely damaged.

Eventually, the Immortal Kingdom required Qingmu University to restrict the practice of "Qingmu Nashu Gubenshu", and the practice conditions were extremely harsh.

Li Zhen flipped through the 'Qingmun Tree Strengthening Technique' in his mind. To practice this secret technique, one needs a spiritual tree.

At this time, he was already thinking about where in the ancient cultivation world there were high-grade spiritual trees. There were probably not many high-grade spiritual trees in the fairyland, and the demon world was too dangerous. On the contrary, the ancient cultivation world was the place where it was easiest to come into contact with high-grade spiritual trees.

The most important thing is that the spiritual tree chosen for the 'Qingmunna Tree Strengthening Technique' can only be chosen once in a lifetime.

Of course, if you choose to incorporate a spiritual tree into your body, you can still upgrade the grade of the spiritual tree by absorbing a large amount of precious resources.

It's just that it's too difficult to upgrade the grade of the spirit tree in the body. The method is described in the secret method, but he saw that the amount of precious resources needed to upgrade a second-level spirit tree to a third-level spirit tree is about ten times the value of the resources needed to upgrade from the second level of body refining to the third level. In addition, the time it takes to upgrade the spirit tree in the body is very long.

This is easy to understand. Not to mention the advancement of the spiritual tree incorporated into the body, even if the spiritual tree planted in the spiritual soil wants to be promoted, it will require a long time and a constant supply of resources.

Li Zhen was already considering getting information about high-level spiritual trees from the Caiqi Pavilion. As long as there was a slight possibility, he wanted to choose a spiritual tree that was of high enough grade.

"Gu Zhun, are there any high-level spiritual trees in the Shifang Valley?" Li Zhen's heart moved slightly, and he asked Gu Zhun.

"Originally, there was a third-level spiritual peach tree in the valley, but now..." Gu Zhun stopped talking halfway.

Li Zhen also knew that since the gate of Shifang Valley had been breached, all the useful items inside would probably be moved away. Even if they were not moved away, there would be monks left behind to guard it.

The chance of finding the third-level Lingtao Village from Shifang Valley is not high, but even if the chance is low, he still wants to try.
