Chapter 74 Half a Year
In the days that followed, Fang Yuhe, Liu Bingxuan and others actually quieted down.

Not only did he stop causing trouble for Zhou Qing, but even his fellow junior fellow students were no longer harassed.

The days are rarely peaceful.

During the peaceful days, Zhou Qing practiced according to the routine every day: exercising the magnetic field in the morning, sitting in silence to clear his mind in the afternoon, and refining qi and learning formations in the evening.

The schedule is so full that it is almost impossible to squeeze out time to do other things.

He originally wanted to do other things, such as going to the Sutra Library to learn more magical spells.

But after thinking about it, he felt that his current daily homework was very important and it would be a shame to delay it to do other things.

There are both principles and techniques for spiritual practice. In the long run, the principles are always more important than the techniques.

Tao refers to the foundation and realm of practice, while Shu refers to its application.

Now, his daily practice is almost entirely focused on the Tao.

Exercising the magnetic field in the morning is to enhance one's own magnetic field ability. This is what makes Zhou Qing different from ordinary people. It is also his greatest reliance in practice. It is the foundation of the foundation, so naturally he cannot relax.

The silent meditation in the afternoon is about cultivating the mind of Tao. Although the effect of the mind of Tao is invisible and intangible, it is implemented in every corner of practice and naturally cannot be neglected.

Not to mention the Qi training at night.

Fortunately, he is now relatively safe in the sect and does not have much demand for magic. Even if he encounters sudden danger, the magic that he can access now and can practice successfully quickly will never be more powerful than the Iron Ball Technique and the Five-Colored Divine Light. Thinking of this, magic seems a bit useless.

In that case, I have to put the spell aside for now.

Only when he felt bored would he leave his bamboo forest and visit other junior brothers and sisters at their homes to chat for a while.

More than a month passed, and he had been in Qingyun Sect for half a year.

In just half a year, he could hardly believe how much he had gained.

In terms of magnetic field, the range of his magnetic field has now reached more than 13 feet, and the intensity of the magnetic field has increased by more than ten times compared to when he first arrived at Qingyun Sect.

The oscillation of the magnetic field is becoming more and more skillful and rapid, but unfortunately it still has not achieved a qualitative breakthrough.

His iron ball technique has improved a lot. He can now easily control iron balls that travel at thirty times the speed of sound.

However, the Iron Ball Technique has almost reached its limit, and he has not yet found materials that can withstand higher speeds.

There are many materials in the Refining Institute that are stronger than the black-veined iron, but those materials are not sensitive to magnetic fields, so he cannot control them at all, and naturally he cannot make iron balls from them.

If he wanted to continue to increase the power of the Iron Ball Technique, he had no choice but to think of ways to eliminate air friction or find better materials.

Both of these issues seem difficult to resolve at the moment.

But he was not in a hurry.

Thirty times the speed of sound is almost beyond the reaction of all foundation-building monks, and the characteristic of supersonic speed is that the bullet will arrive before the sound. In other words, unless the enemy sees the iron ball being fired, he will not hear the sound until he is hit by the iron ball.

This further increases the concealment of the iron ball.

Zhou Qing made an estimate based on Chen Qingxuan, a master at the seventh level of foundation building. He thought that the Iron Ball Technique could kill everyone below the fourth level of foundation building instantly if they were caught off guard.

Of course, this is just an ideal situation.

If the enemy has added a protective spell in advance, or has a protective formation or magic weapon on him, this cannot be predicted.

The array diagram and magic weapon greatly increased the attack and defense of the cultivator. As the magnetic field strength increased, the power of his five-colored divine light also increased.

The magnetic field is stronger, so he can compress the spiritual energy to a higher concentration, so the explosion of spiritual energy will naturally be more explosive.

Moreover, the Five-Colored Divine Light has an advantage over the Iron Ball Technique. It has extremely strong penetrating power against self-defense techniques and formations.

Both self-defense spells and formations rely on spiritual energy to function. When faced with violent spiritual energy compressed to the extreme, the spiritual energy stirred up by ordinary self-defense spells and formations is like snow encountering red-hot molten iron. It has basically no resistance and is burned through.

With the two unique skills of Iron Ball Technique and Five-Colored Divine Light to protect him, and his increasingly powerful physical strength, Zhou Qing conservatively estimated that all cultivators below the Foundation Establishment stage would no longer be insurmountable mountains for him.

In addition to his magnetic field ability, his cultivation level is also gradually improving.

His current cultivation speed, when not using spirit stones, is already at the speed of almost seven spirit roots. If he uses mid-grade spirit stones, it can soar to the speed of twenty-one spirit roots.

Of course, this refers to the speed at which a cultivator with twenty-one spiritual roots uses low-grade spirit stones.

Because of the limited spiritual stones, his average monthly cultivation speed is now almost the same as that of a cultivator with twelve spiritual roots.

Now, half a year later, his spiritual pressure has reached one foot and seven inches.

The limit of the first level of Qi Refining is three feet of spiritual pressure. He has now achieved half of it. If nothing unexpected happens, within half a year, he will be able to reach the limit of the first level of Qi Refining and try to break through to the second level of Qi Refining.

In addition to Qi refining and magnetic field abilities, there is also formation. This month, he did not try any new formations, but instead focused on memorizing the advanced formation symbols and the basic formation structure given by Xuanzhe.

As he memorized more and more runes and understood the formation structure more and more thoroughly, Zhou Qing felt as if new ideas were brewing in his mind.

But when he tried to figure out this new idea, he found it impossible.

Long-term cultivation of his Tao heart has enabled Zhou Qing to maintain a stable state of mind at all times, so he is not impatient.

A new idea is like a fetus; the reason he cannot grasp it is simply that it is not yet fully formed.

He just needs to keep studying and thinking, and it will appear one day.

And Zhou Qing believes that this day will not be too far away.

Zhou Qing continued to move forward steadily on the path he had chosen.

That night, he finished his Qigong exercise, walked to the yard to rest for a while, and then prepared to go back to the house to continue studying the formation.

Suddenly a red light rose from the front, piercing the night sky.

Zhou Qing was surprised and secretly estimated the location. He felt that the red light was on Ziyun Mountain, not far from his residence.

So he locked the gate and headed towards the direction where the red light rose, wanting to see what was happening there and whether it could have any impact on him and other disciples.

Zhou Qing walked quickly and in less than a cup of tea he ran into a peach orchard.

It was already autumn, and the peach blossoms had long since fallen, leaving only wilted leaves hanging on the trees.

Zhou Qing discovered that the red light was in the peach forest, so he rushed forward. Suddenly, a figure flashed out from the side. It was Fang Yuhe.

When the two enemies met, Zhou Qing thought Fang Yuhe would at least say a few cold words to him, but unexpectedly Fang Yuhe was panicked and didn't even look at him, and ran towards the red light.

Zhou Qingzheng was puzzled when suddenly another red figure approached quickly from another direction. This time it was Yuan Hongying.
