Yuan Ming immediately realized that something was wrong, and with another thought, his soul flew towards the house, trying to return to his physical body.
But at this moment, a gust of night wind struck again, and Yuan Ming's soul was blown out again.
This time, his soul drifted further, and was suddenly seven or eight feet away. The biting cold feeling became more intense, and Yuan Ming felt even more frightened.
He wanted to return to his body again, but this time he was horrified to find that the connection between his mind and body had become extremely weak, and his soul could not go back.
After discovering this, Yuan Ming was immediately shocked and moved his hands wildly in the void, trying to go back.
It's just that this kind of action didn't push the soul in the slightest, just like a drowning person who tried his best to save himself but couldn't do it.
A breeze blew by, causing his soul to drift further away again.
Something even more horrifying happened to Yuan Ming. He suddenly discovered that as the connection between him and his physical body weakened further, his soul was getting weaker and weaker, and his soul was actually on the verge of disintegration.
At this moment, a soft force suddenly surged from the direction of the house, wrapping his soul, and the original disintegration was stopped.
The next moment, he felt his soul being pulled by this force, his vision was spinning for a while, and he instantly returned to his physical body.
Yuan Ming suddenly opened his eyes, gasping for air violently, holding his shoulders with his hands, his body trembling, and he felt that the feeling of coldness still lingered.
"It seems that your soul can currently be separated from the body by up to seven feet. If it is further away, it will lose control and be in danger of dissipating." Silver Cat's voice sounded in his sea of consciousness, without any emotional fluctuations.
"I almost lost my soul just now, you just wanted to test the distance between my soul and my body?" Yuan Ming felt a little angry for a moment.
"Understanding the state of one's own soul is the most basic quality for a soul cultivator." Silver Cat didn't care at all.
Yuan Ming had no time to argue with the other party at this moment, so he closed his eyes and adjusted his breath, activated the Ming Yue Jue and meditated for a while, and then the feeling of aversion to cold finally disappeared.
When he opened his eyes again, he found that the silver cat was still squatting on the table. Not only did he not leave, but his appearance and posture did not change at all.
"You... still have something to ask me for?" Yuan Ming had calmed down and asked.
The silver cat did not move. Suddenly there was a flash of silver light in front of it, and a piece of brown animal skin appeared, and then it flew up again and landed in front of Yuan Ming.
Yuan Ming picked it up and took a look, and saw a line of Chinese characters on it, with several names written on it: "Grimaceous grass, purple core pollen, black scale fruit, yin marrow liquid."
He was familiar with the Grimace Plant and the Purple Heart Flower. He had seen it before in "The Collection of Herborist" and even collected some Grimace Flowers and sold them to Zhao Tong. He had never seen the latter two, but they were probably some kind of spiritual beings.
material.
"What is this?" Yuan Ming asked with a frown.
"I'll tell you when I collect it." After Silver Cat finished speaking, without waiting for Yuan Ming to speak, he turned around and disappeared into the hazy night.
Yuan Ming opened his mouth. He was really speechless about Silver Cat's character, but he was helpless. He was full of doubts and complaints, and he could only suppress it forcefully at this moment.
After resting for a while, he ran the "Ming Yue Jue" again, trying to get the feeling of being out of body.
It's just that this time he learned the lesson and didn't fly his soul out of the house again. Instead, he stayed inside his house, never stepping beyond the limit of seven feet, and carefully experienced this special experience.
Having said that, it seems... quite important to know the limit of one's soul leaving the body.
…
On the second day, Yuan Ming came to Huofang early to refine the embryo.
Fang Ge stood aside and began to guide him on more embryo refining techniques and how to hammer out the appropriate shape of the weapon.
He was becoming more and more fond of this junior fellow student who he thought was generally talented and had difficulty achieving results, but who turned out to be making rapid progress in his studies.
Yuan Ming lived up to his expectations and became more and more proficient in embryo refining.
In the afternoon, after Yuan Ming had lunch in the dining hall, he left the Huolian Hall and went straight to the Guizang Pavilion.
During this period of time, in addition to practicing the "Mingyue Jue" diligently, he has also made considerable progress in mastering the art of controlling beasts, and now he only lacks an opportunity to practice in actual combat.
Normally, the disciples of the Beast Taming Hall conduct actual combat assessments by taming the spirit beasts bred in the zoo within the sect. As a disciple of the Fire Refining Hall, Yuan Ming naturally does not have this opportunity.
Of course, if he is willing to spend money to buy a spirit beast, he can also buy a tamed spirit beast from the Beast Taming Hall. This kind of spirit beast can be easily controlled by only the Beast Taming Runestones.
But Yuan Ming didn't want to spend the money firstly, and secondly he wanted to master the art of controlling beasts by himself, so naturally he wouldn't buy it.
His plan was to personally capture a spiritual beast in the wild and then tame it himself.
The so-called spiritual beasts and ferocious beasts are just one word apart, but the essence is actually the same, except that spiritual beasts cover a wider range. Fierce beasts that have been captured and domesticated are also a type of spiritual beasts.
Catching spiritual beasts and hunting ferocious beasts may seem similar, but the actual difficulty is vastly different. For this reason, Yuan Ming plans to go to Guizang Pavilion to learn one or two techniques to increase the chance of success.
The night before, he asked about the silver cat's aura-concealing technique, which was actually for this purpose.
When capturing spiritual beasts, especially if you want to capture them alive, you can imagine how convenient it will be if you can hide your body.
Arriving at Guizang Pavilion, Yuan Ming went straight to the second floor.
After meeting the middle-aged deacon, Yuan Ming asked straight to the point: "Elder, I would like to borrow some techniques that can hide your body. Can you recommend one or two?"
"Oh, it's you..." The middle-aged deacon raised his eyebrows slightly after seeing Yuan Ming.
Yuan Ming came here to borrow "The Art of Expelling Objects" before, and he was somewhat impressed by Yuan Ming.
It was not because of his handsome appearance that was more like that of a Central Plains person, but because he clearly had three hours to borrow the book, but ended up leaving after only half an hour.
Ever since he served as the second-floor deacon of Guizang Pavilion, he has never seen a disciple who mistook money for money like this.
"You know me?" Yuan Ming looked surprised.
"Ahem, it's nothing. You want to borrow a spell that can hide your figure. Currently, there are only two concealment spells in our Guizang Pavilion that are suitable for monks in the Qi Refining Stage to learn. They are the Love Water Technique and the Mu Yin Technique. Which one do you want to borrow?
One?" The middle-aged deacon coughed lightly and waved his hand.
"What's the difference?" Yuan Ming asked.
"The Love of Water Technique is a water attribute technique. It has the best concealment effect in environments with strong water vapor, especially waterfalls, rivers, lakes, etc. The Wood Hidden Technique naturally works best in forests. It mainly depends on your
Spiritual root attributes and own needs." The middle-aged deacon explained.
"Mu Yin Technique." Yuan Ming took off his waist badge without hesitation and placed it on the table.
"Ten points of contribution." The middle-aged deacon glanced at him.
"Don't worry, I also heard that there is a wood attribute technique that disciples in the Qi Refining Stage can learn, called "Wooden Prison Technique", and I also want to redeem it." Yuan Ming said.
"Yes, fifteen points of contribution." The middle-aged deacon nodded and said.
"I want them all, I'm sorry." Yuan Ming said.
"You want to redeem two spells at the same time?" the middle-aged deacon asked in surprise.
The average disciple can only redeem one spell at most at a time. He cannot memorize them all at one time and will memorize them several times. He has never seen anyone redeem two spells at once. After all, memorizing and comprehending a spell requires
The Dharma consumes a lot of attention. How is it possible to remember two chapters in a row?
"That's right." Yuan Ming nodded and said.
"Wait a moment." The middle-aged deacon frowned deeply, but said nothing more. He just picked up his badge, stood up, opened the door of the room behind him, and walked in.
After a while, he came back with two thin blue books.
"Borrowing books can only be done on the second floor and cannot be taken out. If you have two books... the time limit is six hours." The middle-aged deacon put the badge and books on the table, again the same as last time.
Advice.
After Yuan Ming thanked him, he took the badge, picked up the two books "Wooden Prison Technique" and "Wooden Hidden Technique" and left. He found a secluded place to sit down and began to read attentively.
He was still at his own pace, flipping through one page after another, neither too fast nor too slow.
There are not many formulas in the entire Muyin Technique, the difficulty of the technique does not seem to be very high, and the effects of the technique are also very limited.
It can only be used in places with trees. The more luxuriant the trees are, the more spiritual energy can be borrowed and the better the concealment effect. It really meets Yuan Ming's needs.
The "Nine Yuan Jue" he practices is a wood attribute technique, and he has an innate advantage in learning the wood hidden technique.
After about half an hour, Yuan Ming put down "Wood Yin Technique", closed his eyes and thought about it for a moment, then picked up "Wooden Prison Technique" and started reading it carefully.
The middle-aged deacon couldn't help but glance in his direction from time to time.
After almost half an hour, Yuan Ming got up and returned, arriving at the deacon's table.
"Do you want to return the book?" the middle-aged deacon asked with some confusion when he saw this.
"That's right." Yuan Ming nodded.
As he spoke, he placed the two books on the desk at the same time.
It seemed like it took at least an hour and a half, but it was all returned at once?
"My little friend, don't blame me for talking too much. It's not easy to accumulate sect contribution points, and the opportunity to learn spells is even more rare. You must cherish it." The middle-aged deacon advised earnestly.
"Thank you for your kindness, elder. I have finished reading it. In addition, I would like to ask again, apart from the books about elixirs and spiritual materials on the first floor, is there any information on this aspect on the second floor? I would like to check it out." Yuan Ming rushed to the other party.
He cupped his hands and asked again.
The middle-aged deacon heard this, thought for a while, and said: "There are also some elders' manuscripts. If you need them, you can check them out with only about three contribution points per volume."
"Thank you." Yuan Ming nodded quickly.
"In that case, I suggest you check the Second Cave Master's herbal collection manual. It has the most extensive content and only requires five contribution points." The middle-aged deacon suggested.
Yuan Ming did not hesitate and handed over his badge again.
