The abandoned cannon fodder girl's path to immortality

Chapter 253 Mysterious Yin Spiritual Field
"This thing is so useful to me! You're so kind! Give it to me!"

The sword spirit tried to gently touch Chen Jinshu's wrist with its illusory sword tip, its movements cautious and obsequious, like a puppy nudging its master's palm with its nose for food.

Chen Jinshu was somewhat taken aback by this sudden display of coquettishness.

Her lips twitched involuntarily.

'No? You're a sword spirit who's lived for thousands of years! Where's your dignity?'

Where does your confidence come from?

However, at this moment, Chen Jinshu actually prefers the increasingly humanized Sword Spirit.

She deliberately put on a stern face and said in a slightly teasing tone:

"Oh? Now you know to call someone a 'good person'? Weren't you just calling them 'person,' 'person' a moment ago?"

"Oh dear! That's all in the past! You're so kind! You're the best person ever! The most wonderful person in the world!" The sword spirit had completely lost its shame and was frantically drawing circles in the air.

"Please! I'll trade you something! I promise I won't let you suffer any loss!"

"I'll teach you all the intricate variations following the 'Nineteen Forms of Falling Sound'! I guarantee you'll learn it all! There's also a sword formation that integrates musical rhythms! The ancient 'Ice Soul Profound Sound Sword Domain'! Its power is unparalleled! And that's not all! I know of an ancient cultivator's cave ruins; there might be a musical inheritance inside!..."

As Chen Jinshu watched it jump around anxiously and utter incoherently, the pent-up anger and resentment that had been building up in his heart for days because of Lin Xiao and Zhou Wanning was strangely diluted.

At this moment, the sword spirit seemed like a carefree, mischievous child who only cared about candy.

A faint smile, almost imperceptible to herself, flicked across her eyes. She stopped teasing it and snapped her fingers.

A small fragment, about one-tenth the size of the Yin Marrow Jade, carrying a pure, chilling aura, shot precisely at the swirling blue light.

"then!"

"Ow!"

The sword spirit let out a strange cry that was completely out of character for a sword. The blue light suddenly surged, instantly enveloping and devouring the small fragment of Yin Marrow Jade.

The next moment, the azure light suddenly receded.

The sword spirit then retreated back into the second-grade spirit sword and fell asleep again.

Upon seeing this, Chen Jinshu felt a surge of frustration.

"That guy, he took the stuff and ran away."

"I will never give it to them so easily next time."

……

An hour later, Chen Jinshu successfully returned to the inner market before the Medicine King Valley market closed.

Although the market was still bustling with people, it was much sparser than it had been half a day earlier.

Chen Jinshu did not linger and went straight back to Meiyun Residence.

"After absorbing the purple lightning, the Xuanpin Treasure Furnace gave birth to a lightning-attribute spiritual field. If it absorbs the Yin Marrow Jade, it should also be able to generate a Yin-attribute spiritual field."

Chen Jinshu pondered for a moment, then with a flick of his wrist, the cold jade box containing the Yin Marrow Jade landed on the low table in front of him.

Even though the jade box was sealed with a talisman, a faint chill still emanated from it.

The room temperature dropped sharply in an instant, and the tabletop was covered with frost.

Then she closed her eyes and began to concentrate.

Deep within the spiritual realm of the eyebrows, the dormant Mysterious Female Treasure Furnace was stirred by the Yin Marrow Jade's extremely Yin energy, causing the furnace body to tremble slightly.

"It seems you really like this stuff! Well then, I'll let you have some."

Chen Jinshu sensed the strong reaction from the Mysterious Female Treasure Furnace, and a smile appeared on his lips.

As soon as she made a hand seal, a point of blue light emerged from between her eyebrows.

The blue light flowed and suddenly surged.

In an instant, it transformed into a phantom image of an ancient, massive furnace, about ten feet in diameter, in front of him. Chen Jinshu controlled the Yin Marrow Jade to drill into the furnace's opening.

A soft buzzing sound.

The true form of the Mysterious Female Treasure Furnace immediately began to spin wildly deep within her soul, absorbing and refining the Yin Marrow Jade she had inhaled.

Chen Jinshu's body was suddenly enveloped in a flowing gray-black halo.

Her hair bun was scattered by an invisible wave of air, her black hair danced wildly without wind, and every strand of hair was covered with tiny ice crystals.

Two hours passed in the blink of an eye.

Chen Jinshu slowly woke up, by which time the Mysterious Female Treasure Furnace had already completely refined the Yin Marrow Jade.

She could no longer feel the chill.

However, as the treasure furnace absorbed and advanced, she could no longer step into the spiritual plant space.

After an unknown amount of time, an extremely powerful spiritual force suddenly appeared in her sea of ​​consciousness.

It was not harmful to her; on the contrary, it indirectly tempered her consciousness, allowing it to gradually improve.

"After being absorbed by the Yin Marrow Jade, it actually replenishes spiritual power!"

Chen Jinshu dared not slack off in the slightest and quickly began practicing his cultivation technique.

In cultivation, spiritual consciousness is the most difficult to cultivate, and ordinary cultivators are stuck in the process of advancing spiritual consciousness and cannot make any progress.

Now, she has only allowed the treasure furnace to absorb a portion of the Yin Marrow Jade, yet it has already replenished such a large amount of spiritual energy. This will definitely allow her divine sense to advance even further.

Then, a lotus mark on her forehead shone brightly with a blue light, which eased the intense impact she felt when receiving this powerful spiritual energy.

Another half incense stick has passed.

Chen Jinshu opened her eyes, panting. She felt a surge of joy as she sensed the powerful divine sense that had reached the fourth level of the Golden Core realm in her sea of ​​consciousness.

This is a full two levels higher than her own cultivation level, which will be of great help to her future advancement and alchemy cultivation.

At this moment, she looked inward into her sea of ​​consciousness and found that the Mysterious Female Treasure Furnace had returned to calm. The luster of the furnace body was restrained, but it appeared even more profound and vast.

With a thought, she appeared in the spiritual plant space in the next instant.

The space underwent another change, with a faint, extremely weak chill appearing in the air.

The concentration of spiritual energy became even stronger.

In front of her, next to the lightning-attribute spiritual field, a patch of grayish-black soil, only a few feet square, suddenly appeared.

The soil was dark in color, with a layer of warm and restrained black light flowing across its surface, from which wisps of extremely pure and mysterious Yin energy emanated.

The green tea tree, the black tea seedlings, and even the roots of the newly acquired purple thunder bamboo were all quietly drawing in this yin energy.

"The Mysterious Yin Spiritual Field is complete!"

A faint smile appeared on Chen Jinshu's lips.

"Done? Human! If you're done, give me another lick!" The sword spirit, who had awakened at some point, once again moved in front of Chen Jinshu, like a spoiled child begging for candy.

“I’ve already eaten your portion. I have a use for the rest. I can’t grant you any more.” Chen Jinshu shook his head slightly, now unmoved by the sword spirit’s pleas.

This sword spirit is so pretentious. If you give it a little more, it will definitely come back to bother you and ask for more after it finishes eating.

This time, they simply stopped giving it to us altogether.

Moreover, she also needed to use this Yin Marrow Jade to refine a substitute puppet to ensure that she would have a chance to escape in times of crisis.

"Alright, man. I'll ask you for it again when I think of a new resource point." Seeing that Chen Jinshu had already entered the cultivation realm, the sword spirit drooped its entire blade and silently retreated to a corner of the bamboo house, still refining the yin energy remaining in its body.

Chen Jinshu skillfully circulated her internal energy for cultivation, but the feeling of absorbing spiritual energy at this moment was quite different from before. Her meridians even had a slightly cool sensation, as if it had the effect of strengthening her meridians.

"This newly acquired Xuan Yin Spiritual Field is even more valuable than I expected!" Chen Jinshu said with a broad smile.
