Wanfa Daojun, starting from the Little Cloud and Rain Technique

Chapter 22 The Third Level of Qi Refining
Ten days later.

The night is as cool as water, the bright moon shines silently, and a censer of incense burns in the bamboo building, making it seem like a dream.

Ji An sat cross-legged on the cushion, his breathing sometimes fast and sometimes slow. The immortal veins in his body were filled with spiritual energy, like a small river flowing and winding, attacking the Qihai acupoint again and again.

The bottleneck of the third level of Qi Refining is gradually loosening.

The magic power in his body was surging, and his heart was as calm as a lake. He controlled the magic power calmly and continued to attack his dantian.

Finally, the Qihai acupoint suddenly expanded a bit under repeated impacts, like a giant dragon sucking water, and all the magic power in the immortal vein poured into the ancestral orifice.

Ji An noticed that another branch had appeared on the immortal vein.

He kept his mind calm, refined all the remaining medicinal power of the Huangya Pill, and then slowly withdrew from his cultivation.

It took two and a half months, with no shortage of elixirs and spiritual rice, and he finally reached the third level of Qi Refining.

At this moment, a faint smile appeared on his face, and he sighed softly:
"It's not easy."

With his current qualifications, this speed is already very fast, but the price is a sharp shrinkage of his wallet.

Ever since the harvest of the spiritual grain, the magic ban on the bamboo building has been activated. Otherwise, if he happens to meet a gentleman who steals things, he won't even have time to cry.

The ban is simple, and one spirit stone can support it for a year, but for him at the moment, one spirit stone is a huge expense and he can't afford to save it.

A few days ago, he went to the Bishui Market to find Brother Wei and bought 30 Huangya Pills, and asked someone to buy 10 spirit crystals of grain seeds. Now he has returned to the time before liberation, and only has 10 spirit crystals, 24 pills, and a dozen wooden beads left in his hands.

Fortunately, two acres of yellow rice have been planted. After two more months, when the elixir is used up, it will be time to harvest the spiritual grain.

When his cultivation reached the third level of Qi Refining, the upper limit of his mana doubled, and he had no problem releasing fourth-level spells.

Ji An’s mind sank into the Qi Hai acupoint again, Old Turtle, start!
The three kinds of inspiration decreased one by one, and his comprehension of spells gradually increased. When he opened his eyes again, the two spells had already reached the mastery level.

[Master: Ji An]

【Daoyun: 0】

[Spiritual Ability: Kan Spirit 4.9, Kun Spirit 0.7, Xun Spirit 0]

[Spell: Small Cloud Rain Spell (Great Success 1%)

Thick Earth Technique (Great Achievement 1%)

Withering and Flourishing Secret (Minor Success 62%)

Fire Curse (Mastery 2%)

Sharp Gold Technique (Mastery 12%)]

With two major spells and one minor spell, there is hope for a good harvest in the spiritual valley. In recent days, Ji An's insecurity caused by the lack of crystals has been greatly reduced.

After reaching the third level of Qi Refining, the effects of the Yellow Bud Pill and Spiritual Rice would inevitably decrease, and he would need to earn more crystals in the future to maintain rapid progress.

He stood up, walked to the wall and opened two windows. A gentle breeze blew and the moon filled the bamboo building.

The next day, Ji An finished his training, walked to the spiritual field, and released the small cloud and rain technique.

An acre of white mist covered the spiritual field, and rain fell down.

It fell on the leaves of the spiritual valley, making crisp sounds, and fell into the spiritual field, splashing a little dust and mud.

Ji An felt the spiritual energy that was much richer than that of a minor spell, listened attentively to the sound of rain falling and moistening the earth, and his heart was as crystal clear as glass.

A mysterious feeling lingered in his heart, and he had an idea. The seals in his hands changed rapidly, and he released the small cloud and rain technique again in another acre of spiritual field.

[Minor Cloud Rain Technique (Great Success 1% → 11%)]

"Hahaha"

Ji An burst into laughter, startling a few birds in the tree.

I, the Taoist priest, can also have an epiphany without the stone turtle!

After a while, his inner excitement gradually subsided and his mood slowly returned to calm.

He took out the gray cloth from his arms, opened it, and placed the talisman bird in the palm of his hand. He slowly input magic power, and when the paper goose's size stopped growing, Ji An sat on it.

He stroked the increasingly dimmed talisman bird and whispered softly, "Old friend, please give me a ride."

The Fu bird flapped its wings and flew up swayingly, drawing a crooked curve in the air.

A light mist formed above the spiritual field and quickly dissipated in the sunlight.

General Affairs Hall.

Ji An glanced around, walked straight to an acquaintance, and bowed, saying:
"Brother Li, my name is Ji An, and I'm here to exchange spells today."

The man looked familiar. He was none other than the senior brother who was on duty at Wen Dao Hall that day. He was deeply impressed by the fragrance of the spiritual tea that day.

Li Changfeng raised his eyes and said lightly:

"Junior brother, thank you for your courtesy. Give me the jade token. I wonder what kind of magic spell you want to exchange it for?"

He had no impression of this junior brother and was not surprised that he recognized him. As a disciple of the General Affairs Hall, he thought that most of the Qi Refining disciples in the sect would recognize him.

Ji An took out the jade token with body temperature and handed it over, saying calmly:
"Exchange for the fourth level of Small Cloud and Rain Technique and Thick Earth Technique."

Li Changfeng took the jade token and looked at the other party with a half-smile:
"The sect attaches great importance to production talents, and those who exchange for such spells can enjoy the sect's preferential policies.

Junior brother, do you know the rules? If you want to exchange for production spells above the fourth level, you need to perform the spell on the spot."

He became curious about the identity of this junior brother. He looked young and was not wearing the standard Taoist robes of the various peaks and halls. He thought he was a spiritual farmer.

However, Lingnong must come to the General Affairs Hall to pay land rent and taxes at the end of each quarter, but he has no impression of him at all, which is quite interesting.

"Of course I know. Please check it out, brother."

"Okay, please follow me, Junior Brother."

Li Changfeng took out a palm-sized bronze disc-shaped magic weapon and led the way.

The two men came to a piece of white land in the backyard of the side hall. Li Changfeng threw the magic weapon to the center of the white land. After a few breaths, he pinched the magic formula and stretched out his hand to grab it, and the round magic weapon flew back to his hand.

Ji An marveled at this, thinking that this spell should be a technique for controlling objects, which is perfect for grabbing objects. It is also the basis for controlling magical instruments and is a must-learn spell for cultivators.

"Brother, how many contribution points do I need to redeem the Object Control Skill?"

Li Changfeng was even more surprised. This junior brother seemed so new that he hadn't even learned the art of controlling objects. Could he be a new disciple this year?

This is amazing. He can comprehend the great level of magic in the first year. He has a bright future.

His tone softened a bit, and he smiled:

"The sect has compiled a set of practical spell jade slips, which include a set of five-element attack spells, specially provided to Qi Refining disciples. 200 contribution points are required to redeem the jade slips.

Compared to the shops in the Fairy City Market, this price is really cheap."

Two hundred contribution points, equivalent to ten spirit stones, is too much. An ordinary disciple would need several years to accumulate so many contribution points, right?!

Ji An frowned slightly:

"Um, can these spells be redeemed individually?"

“I’m afraid not.

Junior Brother, it's too far-fetched to think about this now. Before entering the middle stage of Qi Refining, the mana in your body is too low, and even if you learn magic, it won't be of much help in fighting."

Ji An secretly curled his lips, he finally understood.

The sect's move is to set a high threshold so that spiritual farmers and other productive cultivators can feel at ease to contribute to the sect's strength.

Li Changfeng raised the magic weapon in his hand and said with a smile:
“This is a spirit-testing disk, which can test the strength of spiritual power.

Compared to the Small and Great Thick Earth Art, the casting range of the Great and Great Thick Earth Art has not been expanded, and can only be verified by testing the spiritual power strength before and after casting."

After saying that, Li Changfeng raised his chin.

Ji An understood, he took a step forward, calmly pinched the magic formula, the seal in his hand changed, and the ochre light spread all over the white ground.
