I have to get lucky right away.

Chapter 34: Even if you cheat, you still need to practice hard

"???"

Feng Xue stared at the entry above his head, his thoughts in a mess.

[Refining Essence into Qi] It’s ok that the cultivation process has been categorized into terms, but even magic can be categorized into terms?

Isn’t this a disguised form of permanent proof?
As soon as this thought arose, Feng Xue shook his head again, because he realized that before gaining sufficient risk resistance, the first priority of his own [Destiny] would always be given to life span.

After all, only by being alive can you have everything.

Of course, this doesn't mean that locking the item is useless. After all, compared to combat skills such as [Lightning Attract] and [Demon Slaying], most of the spells in his hands are still for daily use.

Thinking of this, Feng Xue immediately tried to lock the [Spirit Attachment] entry. With his thoughts focused, his magic power flowed smoothly, and he could wrap the seal stably without even the calibration of a candle. He could draw a perfect aperture on the seal without even using clean water as a guide.

Smooth, convenient, and without any mistakes, Feng Xue felt this unprecedented spellcasting experience. It was as if when he wanted to reach out and pick up something, his arm had already stretched out. It was almost an instinct.

Feng Xue picked up the stopwatch and pressed the seal on the paper. One second, two seconds, three seconds... until the 25th second, it finally completely dissipated.

"Goodness! According to the calculation that the spirit possession time doubles with every second of persistence, twenty-five seconds... doesn't that mean almost two hundred days? Jiugu's Hutian Curse can only last for three months!"

Feng Xue stared, although he felt that the duration of Jiugu Hu Tianzhu was for the convenience of charging, but this result was also beyond his expectations.

This method of training the spirit-attached seal is a little trick recorded in the "Yi Zhuang Secret Book". In addition to being convenient for practice, the most important thing is that it can intuitively and quickly judge the limit of one's own magic power.

Don't be fooled by the rapid dissipation of the aperture. That's because the seal itself doesn't have any additional effects, and no corresponding stabilizing spell is used when placing the seal. If this entire process is added, even if it's just a seal, it can last the same amount of time.

Feng Xue was delighted, but he did not get carried away. He immediately followed the method of the [Ghost Controlling Spell] to make the attached spirit for the Ghost Controlling Seal. However, something went wrong with this action. Feng Xue discovered that the locked [Spirit Controlling Spell] had no effect on any other attached spirits except for making the detection seal!
"Is it because the spirit-possession process is locked? But why can the Mouth Seal produce different transformations? Is it because no matter what the Mouth Seal transforms into, the basic principle is the same? For the little white snake, transforming into a human or a car will not make the slightest difference? Or is it because spells must be activated actively, while the Mouth Seal is activated passively?"

All kinds of thoughts emerged in Feng Xue's mind, but he quickly gave up this futile speculation.

Because no matter whether his guess is correct or not, he has no way to verify it. Thinking too much will only add to his troubles, so it is better to make good use of this mechanism.

Yes, exploit.

Although it has almost no practicality, Feng Xue felt the difference after just one experiment. In the locked state, the feeling of mana flowing was just like someone was guiding him step by step through the correct operating procedures. One or two times may not be enough, but as long as he experienced it enough times, his body would definitely remember the feeling of steady mana output.

Destined to become a traffic monster, what he lacked was this kind of meticulous control. Now that he has the opportunity to make up for it, how can it not be a good thing?
Feng Xue immediately gave up the idea of ​​practicing all four basic spells. He just sat in front of the candlelight, constantly casting the spirit-attaching spell over and over again while locking on the [Spirit Attachment] state.

The feeling of magic power flowing out of the body through the ancestral orifice between the eyebrows was so clear. The slightest fluctuation and fine-tuning, the feeling that the slightest disturbance would be guided back on track, was constantly captured by Feng Xue who was concentrating his mind.

The sky gradually darkened, and the candle in front of Feng Xue had long since burned out, but he continued to release his magic power towards the seal. Even though the magic power contained in it was already overflowing, he didn't care.

Seeing that Feng Xue wasn't practicing Qi today, Liu Yunxi, in bicycle form, immediately began collecting Moonlight. She'd become quite proficient these past few days. Even though the Qi hadn't reached her, she didn't resort to the casual practice of collecting and refining it in the mountains as she'd done in the past. Instead, she gathered the Moonlight all at once, then slowly refined it when she was sure Feng Xue wasn't practicing. While this would result in a significant amount of Moonlight being lost before it could be refined due to her body's capacity, Liu Yunxi, with her incredible talent, didn't need to worry about it. Compared to wasting the Qi and having to start over, it was no different.

Anyway, with her current qualifications, even the most wasteful training method is forty to fifty times more efficient than before, so there is no need to save in such areas.

At this moment, the movement on Feng Xue's side also attracted the attention of the villagers. Although everyone tacitly agreed not to disturb him, curiosity about the immortal master still made many people observe through the window in the hazy moonlight.

Then, they saw a wonderful scene. In front of the tent made of unknown materials, the immortal master was sitting casually behind a table that came from nowhere, and above his head, a hazy white light seemed to be slowly falling.

Although it is common to have bright moonlight in this suburban village with almost no lights at night, at this moment, compared with the surrounding night which is obviously darker, it is inevitable to feel that the moon favors this person.

The villagers who originally suspected that Feng Xue was a liar who had learned a few magic tricks suddenly lost their suspicion and silently looked at the favor bestowed by the moon, as if just looking at it could bring them a little more luck.

Feng Xue obviously had no idea about this. He was still concentrating on sensing the subtle fluctuations of the magic power, feeling the seemingly random but just right stable pulsation of his soul, and imprinting all these feelings firmly in his heart.

It's a pity that although Feng Xue's magic power is much higher than that of people at the same level, he is only a beginner in Xuan cultivation after all. After repeating this dozens of times, the magic power that he consumed during the day was inevitably squandered. With a slight tingling in his eyebrows, Feng Xue woke up from that mysterious state reluctantly. With a glance, his life was locked again.

Liu Yunxi, who was collecting moonlight, was still thinking that he should be able to collect more today, but he felt a buzzing sound beside him and stopped breathing almost instinctively.

Sure enough, at the moment she stopped absorbing, a vast amount of vital energy suddenly burst out, enveloping the area within a radius of dozens of meters.

"Alas, it looks like we're done for today. Just bear with it a little longer, we'll be heading into the city tomorrow anyway!" Liu Yunxi sighed helplessly, then simply closed her eyes and fell into a sleep cycle that didn't need her...

　As for Jiugu's karmic debt, it is actually quite unfair.

　　Because in fact this is a problem of information asymmetry.

　　Jiu Gu knew that there were gangs in Hong Kong and that they would most likely be following people, so she would usually remind people to be careful when giving them information.

　　But the problem with the protagonist is that his character is a rich second-generation who travels alone. Just think about it, a rich second-generation, traveling alone, who can walk to the next city safely must be quite capable, so Jiu Gu assumed that he should be on guard, so she didn't remind him.

　　But because of this little mention, he really ran into the protagonist, a naive and innocent girl who had just traveled through time, and then the cause and effect naturally took place.

　　This is not a moral kidnapping, but Jiugu's practice is based on a system of vows, and she pays more attention to this. If it were someone who mainly relies on slaying demons and accumulating good karma, they would not care about this cause and effect.

　　It’s like an ordinary person who sees a crime can choose to run away or hide, but as a police officer, when you see a crime, you have the obligation to stop it.

　　ps: Regarding the two-hour ten-mile cycle, riding on tracks and roads is not the same as riding in the wild. There are not so many straight lines and flat grounds for you to walk on in the wild, and you can't ride too fast, otherwise any pothole can make you fly.

　　Let’s not talk about the competition. In competitions, people have to familiarize themselves with the road conditions, confirm the weather, and plan their routes in advance. The protagonist doesn’t even have a map. With the way he practices, he might fall after every few steps.

　　Or to take a more extreme example, Mount Everest is less than 5 meters, and a person can theoretically walk at a speed of more than kilometers per hour. Does that mean it takes two hours to reach the summit?
