I, a minor character, fell into the Shura field of the heroine and the villain

Then he continued to inject electrical energy converted from spiritual power. Seeing the lightning ball as big as a basketball expand to a diameter of ten meters, he raised it above his head.

"Wow, you condense it so quickly. If I were to rub it this big, it would take me at least twice as long as you." Huayu Cicada on the side was not only flattering, but was also really surprised. She opened her mouth wide.

The destructive power of a magic cultivator often surpasses that of a sword cultivator. However, it takes a certain amount of time for a magic cultivator to cast a spell. Even if this time is compressed to a minimum, it is still enough for a sword cultivator to deliver several fatal strikes. Therefore, in a duel between a sword cultivator and a magic cultivator, if their strength is equal, the sword cultivator still has the advantage.

The best match for a Magician against a Swordsman isn't a straightforward one-on-one duel, but rather a righteous group brawl. If a teammate can hold the Swordsman back, the Magician can then cast a spell and, if it lands, they're guaranteed to be utterly annihilated.

Zhao Kangping also taught Hua Yuchan about the spiritual power flow route of the Thunder Punishment Array and the magic spells that needed to be pinched.

Then he asked the girl to step back a distance and demonstrated it himself.

As this spell was cast, the sky darkened visibly, and dark thunderclouds gathered in the sky. Thunder and lightning flashed continuously, and the sound of rumbling was endless.

Under his control, dense lightning began to fall in an area within a radius of several hundred feet.

In fact, he could make the range of influence much larger, but this time it was just for demonstration, so he made the range smaller.

This spell is very effective in clearing soldiers, but its effectiveness will be reduced when dealing with enemies with thick skin and flesh.

Even so, Huayuchan was still very excited after watching the demonstration.

"How powerful! If I knew this spell, the battle in Luquan City wouldn't have been so difficult." What she lacked was a large-scale destructive spell, and this thunder punishment array just made up for her shortcoming.

However, when she actually did it, she was dumbfounded.

Because she was just busy watching the lightning falling from the sky and didn't notice his casting movements.

He had already forgotten most of the spiritual power circulation routes and techniques he had just taught him.

Fortunately, Zhao Kangping was quite patient when teaching others. He explained the whole thing to her again in detail.

Then it was the young elder's turn to try it herself.

The first time Huayu Cicada cast a spell, he successfully summoned thunderclouds, but only heard thunder in the sky, but no lightning fell.

She only felt that she could sense the lightning-attributed spiritual energy in the sky, but she couldn't control it. Perhaps it was beyond her control range.

She told Zhao Kangping her guess.

But he said, "No, if you can sense it, then you can't control it."

“Put aside all distractions and concentrate your mind.”

She adjusted her breathing and cleared her mind. The second time went much better and she successfully landed several thunderbolts.

But there were only seven lightning bolts that struck sparsely, and the landing points were very scattered, as if they were random.

In short, she needs to practice more to get started, and then use it more often to gradually master it.

Even so, she was still very grateful to Zhao Kangping: "My nephew is amazing. You can use such a complicated spell so skillfully."

He felt a little embarrassed. This was not actually his credit, but a proficiency that was directly improved by the system.

After Hua Yuchan used the Thunder Punishment Formation three times, her spiritual power was completely exhausted. Her face turned pale and she was gasping for breath.

"Let's stop here. I can't do it anymore. I'd better take a rest first."

Then she took out a cup of plum juice from her storage ring.

Assuming there is no system assistance, if he were to practice magic on his own, he would probably prepare some pills to restore spiritual power.

Eat one after you have used up all your spiritual power, and start practicing again after your spiritual power is fully restored.

But Hua Yuchan did not feel this urgency. Not only did she drink the sour plum juice herself, she also took out a cup for Zhao Kangping.

This drink is sour and sweet, and is considered quite delicious for the tongue in this era that has not yet been baptized by various food additives.

The two chatted during the break.

The topic starts with those related to spiritual practice.

"I heard from my senior sister that you can actually break through to the Void Refinement Stage. Why didn't you do it earlier?" Elder Hua had heard Nangong Ruyun mention Zhao Kangping many times. When she spoke of this nephew, she didn't speak like an elder discussing a younger person, but rather as if she were talking about her lover.

So all the news about this man heard from Nangong Ruyun was very positive.

For example, he is not only handsome, but also a good cook, caring, gentle, and diligent in his practice. In short, he has a lot of advantages that can be listed endlessly.

"You should have heard Aunt Yun say that I am a first-grade Yuanshen."

"Since I have already achieved the best Dao Fruit in the Spiritual Transformation Stage, why shouldn't I also pursue the best in the Void Refining Stage?"

Zhao Kangping didn't hide it. He felt he could be lazy in other areas, but he had to strive to achieve the best in his cultivation. Only in this way could he achieve his ultimate strength.

As long as you have enough strength, many problems will no longer be problems.

As for the fact that he was a first-grade Yuanshen, he only let people close to him know.

Aunt Yun witnessed his breakthrough to the Spiritual Transformation stage again at that time, and she was also one of the people who knew the secret of her own first-grade spirit.

After the Miaoyin Sect's undercover list was exposed, the Xianyun Sect had already screened out those spies who were unwilling to surrender. Furthermore, they conducted a self-examination of the sect's members to detect undercover agents planted by other sects. This process also screened out a number of people.

There are no such spies in the clan now.

So Elder Hua is also someone who can be trusted. Aunt Yun should have mentioned this to her.

When Zhao Kangping mentioned that he was a first-grade Yuanshen, there was not much surprise on her face, and it was obvious that she already knew it.

She had indeed learned about this from Nangong Ruyun. She had already expressed her surprise at that time.

Elder Hua nodded blankly: "Is that so? It's a good thing to have aspirations."

"The realm of emptiness is still far away for me. I haven't even thought about when I can achieve it."

"I'm quite lazy, and I may never have this opportunity again in my lifetime."

The Xianyun Sect's power could only be ranked at the bottom of the T1 tier, though it might rise slightly higher after swallowing the Miaoyin Sect. However, this would require thorough digestion of the results of this battle.

With the current resources of the Xianyun Sect, being able to cultivate a cultivator like Nangong Ruyun at the Fusion Stage is already the best they can do. The sect simply cannot afford to support more cultivators at the Void Refinement Stage.

Zhao Kangping comforted her, "I don't think you need to be so pessimistic. Perhaps the Xianyun Sect will flourish under Aunt Yun's leadership."

In fact, if he could visit Xianyun Sect more often, spend more time with the aunts here, and talk with them more, perhaps their realm would be greatly improved in the near future.

But he was too embarrassed to bring up this matter.

……

After returning to Xianyun Sect, there was a person waiting for a long time on the road that Zhao Kangping had to pass.

"Senior Brother Zhao." Zheng Luqing greeted the man.

Zheng Luqing is actually quite good-looking. Although she is not as stunning as the original heroines like Luo Xueqing, Bai Qianqian, and Nangong Yue, she is also a rare beauty.

The main reason was that there were too many beauties in Xianyun Sect, and she looked ordinary because she had no outstanding features when she stood there.

She was tall, with a graceful figure, black hair like lacquer, and skin like jade. There seemed to be a hint of uneasiness in her beautiful eyes that were originally full of heroic spirit.

"Hello, Junior Sister Zheng, what's up?" He hadn't interacted with Zheng Luqing much, perhaps not even as much as Luo Xueqing had. He couldn't imagine why she'd specifically come to him.

Even a penny can make a hero fall, let alone the money that was weighing on Zheng Luqing. Her pretty face flushed, and she said, "It's about my master..."

She mentioned Qi Honglian's debt.

From what she said, it became clear that Qi Honglian was not a competent master, and that he even borrowed spirit stones from his apprentice. This was clearly a debt transfer.

As luck would have it, Qi Honglian was in seclusion now. She couldn't find her master, and the debts she had made her very embarrassed.

"Brother, I hope you can lend me some spirit stones first, considering your relationship with Master, so that I can make ends meet." Zheng Luqing asked tentatively.

She thought he would hesitate and then refuse, because they were not familiar with each other, so there was really no need to lend her spirit stones.

Then, if the other party refuses, she will take out the sound recorded by the sound stone, which is the evidence of his improper behavior with Qi Honglian, to threaten him.

She didn't want this to happen, but she was forced to do so by life.

But Zhao Kangping only thought for about a second before asking, "How many spirit stones?"

?

Why didn't he hesitate for a long time and then refuse? Why did he ask how many spirit stones it was?

Zheng Luqing said anxiously, "A total of more than 360,000 spirit stones."

Master's appetite was too big, and she borrowed a lot of spirit stones at once. She borrowed them from many friends. Originally, there were a total of 500,000 spirit stones, and she had already paid back part of it.

She had previously considered that if the other members of the sect were unwilling to lend, she would travel and see where there were higher bounties. Although some bounties were risky, she was determined to earn spirit stones.

Then Zhao Kangping said, "I'll give you 500,000 spirit stones. You can pay it back anytime you want."

"Do you have a spirit card?"

He wanted to give it to her right then and there.

There are no POS machines in this world, but you can transfer money by just touching your Ling card, which is very convenient.

"Yes, yes, yes." Zheng Luqing had a feeling of unreality. She pinched her thigh and found that it hurt. It shouldn't be a dream.

Then Zhao Kangping really transferred the spirit stone to her.

Her hands were shaking with excitement, and her mind was suddenly filled with wild thoughts.

Why was he so willing to lend me the spirit stones?

Could it be that he has some intentions towards me?

She felt a little embarrassed and lowered her head, not daring to look him in the face. If he took the opportunity to put forward some additional conditions, such as asking her to spend the night with him or even take care of herself, should she agree without hesitation or pretend to hesitate and finally agree under his pressure?

She mustered up the courage to ask Zhao Kangping the reason, but when she looked up, he was nowhere to be seen.

Zhao Kangping naturally went back to play with Aunt Yun.

Why would he help Zheng Luqing?

In fact, it has nothing to do with whether she is Qi Honglian's apprentice.

It was just because he really liked the Xianyun Sect, and he felt that he could agree to any of the reasonable requests made by the girls here.

Just think of it as a good relationship.

And this time he was just borrowing, not doing charity.

520 The Transcendent Saint

After Zhao Kangping spent some time with Aunt Yun, he returned to the City Lord's Mansion.

This time he did not encounter Dongfang Jingrou blocking the door. After asking, he found out that she had gone out to do some important work yesterday and had not returned yet.

The people recruited earlier started taking the exam yesterday after training. The exam lasted for two days, and Dongfang Jingrou was one of the invigilators.

Once the available talent is selected from this round of personnel, the official duties of the City Lord's Mansion can be assigned to the people below. Only matters of particular importance will be reported to Zhao Kangping, the City Lord.

This is a good thing, as it will give the housekeeper some free time.

During the day he was away, a relatively important event happened. Luo Xueqing announced that she would go into seclusion in Yaohua Palace.

She had returned from the Long family not long ago. After taking the Wuji Jianyuan Pill, her cultivation had improved significantly, and she had directly broken into the late stage of the Spirit Transformation Realm.

However, progressing too quickly is not always a good thing. She needs to go into seclusion to consolidate the realm improved by this pill and completely complete the transformation of her innate sword body.

This incident was a great shock to Bai Qianqian. Although she broke through to the fifth level of the Heavenly Maiden Treasure Mirror after refining the purple-core jade core, her cultivation level was also raised to the late Nascent Soul stage.

However, the gap between the late Nascent Soul stage and the late Spirit Transformation stage is as huge as heaven and earth, which is enough to make Bai Qianqian despair.

Even if she practiced continuously every day, she would probably never be able to catch up with Luo Xueqing in her lifetime.

Perhaps stimulated by this incident, Bai Qianqian came to see Zhao Kangping again yesterday, but unfortunately he was not there, so she went back.

Senior sister also has her own things to do and she doesn't have time to play with him.

Zhao Mengyao even lived with Xun Qianran, and was obsessed with alchemy.

So Zhao Kangping could only play with the little white snake Wan Baiyi.

She was actually fishing for koi in the pond and had already caught a whole bucket.

Seeing him coming, she immediately stood up and greeted him: "Master."

He raised his hand to signal her that she could sit down: "The fish have all been scared away."

The two chatted for a few more words, and then he changed the subject and asked, "Has Shangguan Xueyi tried to control you during this period?"

She shook her head and said, "No, but she seems to have snooped around here. But not for long each time."

"Oh, it seems she still won't give up." He knew that the snake demon wanted to harm him, so he repaid kindness with enmity.

When he was young, he thought he was raising a white lady, but it turned out to be the story of a farmer and a snake.
