The more Lin Shen thought about it, the more excited he became.
If this conjecture is feasible, then the difficulty for other practitioners to create a first-grade spiritual vein is the same as the difficulty for him to create six spiritual veins!
Maybe even lower!
He can also have the clone successfully create a spiritual vein, and it will immediately merge into the main body, and then the clone can create it again.
In this way, each clone is equivalent to forging the first spiritual vein.
Thinking of this, Lin Shen couldn't help but feel hot.
If he could succeed, he might be able to achieve the rumored first-grade spiritual veins without spending much effort and time!
"Worth a try!"
Lin Shen quickly made a decision to try it immediately after he was promoted to the ninth level of Mingqiao.
"Let's see what's in the storage ring first."
Lin Shen picked up the storage ring and began to check the contents inside.
Unexpectedly, he actually saw a familiar small cyan monument inside.
It is the mysterious weapon that Yan Jingren once used!
In addition, there is a high-grade defensive magical weapon and a high-grade magical sword in the storage ring, both of which were obtained from Yan Jingren.
"Does this mean returning the loot to me?" Lin Shen smiled slightly.
Those two high-grade magical weapons are just that. He already has Zhenyun Yi, Chunyang Talisman Sword, and a Nine-Yang Talisman Sword. He doesn't use these two magical weapons at all on weekdays and can only use them as spares.
On the other hand, Lin Shen was quite jealous of Pingling Monument when he fought against Yan Jingren.
Although he already has Mo Feng Inkstone, no practitioner would have too much of a magic weapon of the level of the Mysterious Weapon.
What's more, offensive magic weapons such as Mo Feng Inkstone and Ping Ling Monument are no better than robes and talisman swords. As long as the zhenqi is enough, they can be controlled at the same time. Naturally, the more the better.
While he was overjoyed, Lin Shen suddenly discovered something like a piece of cloth next to the Pingling Monument. When he took it out and took a look, he discovered that it was actually a robe.
There are warp and weft patterns on the surface of the robe. It feels as smooth as water and is not stained by dust. When you pinch it with your hands, it returns to its original shape without any wrinkles. You can tell at a glance that it is not an ordinary thing.
"This is."
Lin Shen's eyes lit up, and he quickly gathered his soul to touch the robe, and some information instantly appeared in his mind.
"Sure enough, this is also a mysterious weapon!" Lin Shen looked happy.
During the refining of magic weapons of Mystical Weapon quality and above, most magic weapons will be infused with a trace of spiritual thought by the weapon refiner, which contains the name, power and usage of the Mysterious Weapon.
Practitioners can know information about the mysterious weapon just by using their soul to detect it.
Magical weapons do not have such treatment.
The robe in Lin Shen's hand is a mysterious robe called the Star Robe.
Obviously, compared to the previous trophies he deserved, this Heavenly Star Robe was the real reward given to him by the sect.
After recovering from the joy, Lin Shen threw up the huddled Tianxing robe.
The robe immediately stretched out and turned into a black Taoist robe spread in the air. There were longitude and latitude lines on the robe, the sun, moon and stars, which vaguely concealed the way the heavens work.
After a moment, the radiant light of the Tianxing robe was withdrawn, fell on Lin Shen, and wrapped his body.
Lin Shen stretched his hands and feet and found that the size of the robe fit perfectly.
This is to be expected.
Even the Shuyang robe of low-grade magic weapon quality has the ability to change its appearance and size at will, let alone the robe of mysterious weapon quality.
Lin Shen couldn't help but nodded with satisfaction. With this treasured clothing to protect him, and the forbidden golden armor of the Zhenwu Realm, no one in Mingqiao could hurt him.
After calming down, Lin Shen continued to check other things.
In addition to magic weapons, there are also many elixirs in the storage ring.
Among them is the reward for killing Yan Jingren - three golden marrow pills!
"Yes, these three golden marrow pills are enough for me to break through to the seventh level of Mingqiao!"
Lin Shen's eyes flashed with joy.
The Golden Marrow Pill allows practitioners to enter a strange state where their souls are differentiated and their spiritual consciousness gradually emerges within three days after taking the pill, allowing them to experience the realm of monks early.
When you practice in this state, your cultivation will improve by leaps and bounds!
One day is worth several months!
After breaking through to the sixth level of Mingqiao, the Yangshen Pill no longer had much effect on Lin Shen, so the appearance of the Golden Marrow Pill was very timely.
In addition to the Golden Marrow Pill, there is also a bottle of pills in the storage ring.
Lin Shen took it out and saw that the name label on the porcelain bottle was the Spirit Casting Pill that he had been thinking about just now.
I opened the cork of the bottle and counted it, there were twelve spirit-casting pills!
“You really give me a pillow when you feel sleepy!”
A smile appeared at the corner of Lin Shen's mouth.
Now that I have the spirit-casting pill, I will wait to be promoted to the ninth level of Mingqiao!
Thinking of this, Lin Shen immediately took out a golden marrow pill, put it in his mouth and swallowed it.
As the power of the medicine spread, he suddenly felt that his whole spirit became much clearer. The whole world suddenly became different, and he felt clearer than before.
At the same time, his perception has become much sharper.
Even if you close your eyes, you can clearly 'see' your surroundings.
Even as his thoughts moved slightly, this perception instantly passed through the wall, spread outside, and spread rapidly in all directions.
In an instant, everything in the entire courtyard was reflected in his mind.
Lin Shen knew clearly in his heart that this should be the so-called spiritual consciousness.
The Golden Marrow Pill is said to allow users to experience the realm of monks, but in fact it is to strengthen the soul and enable it to differentiate into spiritual consciousness in a short period of time.
Strictly speaking, it is only part of the monk realm.
But even so, it is still an extremely powerful effect for practitioners of the Mingqiao Realm!
At this moment, Lin Shen could clearly feel the rich spiritual energy floating in the air around him.
As his thoughts moved slightly, the invisible spiritual consciousness that pervaded his body instantly turned into vortices, frantically absorbing the spiritual energy floating in the air into his body.
The speed is ten times faster than when I was practicing the Nine Yang Heart Sutra and could only passively accept the infiltration of spiritual energy!
The feeling of spiritual energy rapidly pouring into his body was particularly satisfying, and Lin Shen was completely addicted to the rapid improvement of his cultivation.
Nine days later.
All three golden marrow pills were taken by Lin Shen.
And his cultivation level also broke through to the seventh level of Mingqiao as expected!
[Name: Lin Shen]
[Talent: Bypassing]
[Realm: Mingqiao seventh level 23%]
[Kung Fu: Nine Yang Heart Sutra (Perfection), Melting Arms (Zhenwu), Forbidden Golden Armor (Zhenwu), Yunlong Law (45% for entering the Dao), Nine Swords of Shenyang (35% for entering the Dao). 】
[Spells: Seven Secrets Sword Qi (78% on the fourth level), Palm Thunder (34% on the fourth level), Paper Man Transporting Technique (67% on the third level), Immobilization Spell (20% on the third level), Royal
"I finally made a breakthrough, and the Nine Yang Heart Sutra has reached perfection."
"It's a pity that there are only three Golden Marrow Pills. If there are more than ten, maybe I can directly break through to the ninth level of Mingqiao!"
Looking at the panel in the void, Lin Shen thought with some regret.
But he also knew that this idea was a bit too greedy.
The Golden Marrow Pill is so precious. When Jiang Hao and Xie Jingsheng competed with each other, the reason was just a Golden Marrow Pill.
This time he was able to get three Golden Marrow Pills, which was a reward specially set by the Taoist Academy to hone its disciples.
This kind of thing is rare.
"The next step is to see when we can enter the spiritual cave."
After being promoted to the seventh level of Mingqiao, Lin Shen no longer had any effect on the nourishing pill.
The Golden Marrow Pill has been used up again.
Next, if you want to improve your cultivation, you can only rely on hard work.
Even if Lin Shen has seven clones, it will take at least several months to reach 100% progress in the ninth level of Mingqiao.
But if you can enter the spiritual cave to practice, you might be able to achieve your goal within a month.
"As well as Yunlong Law and Shenyang Nine Swords, we must also cultivate to the True Martial Realm as soon as possible!"
Lin Shen made some calculations.
Yunlong Lü still has eleven shortcomings to complete the Qinggong of Shen Dharma.
The Nine Swords of Shenyang still lacks thirteen perfection realm sword techniques.
At his current training speed, if he devotes all his energy to practicing martial arts, he will be able to practice two martial arts to the true martial arts realm in about a month.
And by mastering two more True Martial Realm martial arts, his strength can be increased by at least 10% or 20%, and he will be more confident in entering the spiritual cave to hunt earth spirits.
You must know that spirits like the Earth Soul are not weak - in fact, no spirit living in a place with strong spiritual energy can be weak - the weakest Earth Soul is no worse than the Tongxuan Realm monster clan in terms of strength!
After a while, Lin Shen dismissed his distracting thoughts and settled down to continue practicing, when suddenly something happened in his heart.
Through the talisman, he sensed that someone was visiting from outside.
Lin Shen immediately stood up, left the practice room and came to the outside of the courtyard. With a wave of his hand, the door was opened and he saw Xie Jingsheng standing at the door with a smile.
"Thank you, senior brother."
Xie Jingsheng looked him up and down, smiling deeply.
"Congratulations to Junior Brother Lin for reaching a higher level of cultivation!"
Xie Jingsheng knew that Lin Shen had obtained three golden marrow pills, so he was not surprised that he broke through again in just nine days. However, he couldn't help but sigh in his heart that Lin Shen's cultivation had already kept pace with him in just over a year since he entered the Taoist Academy.
This qualification is truly unmatched!
After thanking him, Lin Shen welcomed Xie Jingsheng in, and then asked him why he was here.
"I came here to tell you that the sect has sent people to explore the spiritual cave to make sure that nothing is missing. Therefore, starting from today, it will be officially opened to the disciples and they will enter in batches."
"And among the first batch of disciples to enter the spiritual cave, there are you and me!"
Lin Shen was immediately happy when he heard this.
He originally thought he would have to wait a month or two, but he didn't expect to be able to enter the spiritual cave so soon.
"When?" Lin Shen asked hurriedly.
"Just five days later." Xie Jingsheng said, "We will be accompanied by two junior brothers, Mu and Fu, as well as ten heaven-level disciples from the Lower Court."
The junior brother Mu mentioned by Xie Jingsheng refers to Mu Chuanhua.
As for the other junior fellow apprentice Fu, Lin Shen guessed that if nothing unexpected happened, he should be Fu Weifang, who was also a disciple of the Upper Academy.
However, only four upper court disciples had the quota to enter the spiritual cave, which made Lin Shen a little surprised.
"Where are Senior Brother Shen and the others?"
Xie Jingsheng understood what Lin Shen meant and explained: "Everyone else has chores to do, but as for Senior Brother Shen"
Having said this, Xie Jingsheng paused, his eyes flashing with envy and admiration.
"Senior Brother Shen started practicing in seclusion five days ago, preparing to forge his spiritual veins!"
Lin Shen was surprised.
When he saw Shen Zening easily defeating Pingling Monument and rescuing Jiang Hao from Yan Jingren, he guessed that Shen Zening's cultivation must be extremely high, but he did not expect that he was already at the ninth level of Mingqiao and had reached the level where he could forge spiritual veins.
This level of strength is far beyond that of other upper court disciples!
After all, before Lin Shen was promoted to the Upper House, Xie Jingsheng, who ranked second in cultivation, had only reached the sixth level of cultivation, which was three realms lower than Shen Zening.
From this point of view, Shen Zening and other upper court disciples are on completely different levels!
"With Senior Brother Shen's qualifications, at worst he can create a third-grade spiritual vein, and even a second-grade spiritual vein is not impossible!"
Xie Jingsheng's face was filled with undisguised envy.
"Senior Brother Shen will leave the Taoist Academy in about half a year. If he can become a monk before then, then after officially joining the sect, he will be a true disciple. He can reach heaven in one step!"
"True disciple?" Lin Shen looked confused.
Xie Jingsheng patted his forehead and then remembered that Lin Shen probably didn't know these things because of his background, so he patiently recounted:
"When you entered the Taoist Academy, you should have heard about the Taoist rules of eliminating disciples, right?"
Lin Shen nodded.
Of course he had heard of it, Yang Zhongyi told him.
Jiuyang Taoist Academy eliminates the fifty disciples who are at the bottom of the list every year.
In fact, the Taoist Academy eliminated fifty people not long ago.
"Most of the disciples who are eliminated from the Taoist Academy will become the outer disciples of the sect, and this is also the lowest level disciple of the sect. Above this, there are inner disciples and true disciples!"
Xie Jingsheng came slowly.
"Any disciple who can stay in Jiuyang Taoist Academy for five years can join the sect after graduation and become an inner disciple. They will enjoy more resources and learn more powerful techniques than outer disciples!"
"Going further, if you can become a monk within five years, you can immediately graduate from the Taoist Academy and become a true disciple of the sect. The sect will give you a large number of elixir books, heavenly materials, and earthly treasures. If you are lucky, you can get a certain elder.
If you are favored by me and accepted as a disciple, you will almost be able to look down upon your peers among the disciples of the sect!"
Xie Jingsheng's tone was full of yearning.
Lin Shen couldn't help but asked curiously: "So far, how many people in the Taoist academy have become true disciples as soon as they graduate?"
"They are rare." Xie Jingsheng replied without thinking, "Since the establishment of Jiuyang Taoist Temple, there are only three people who can become monks within five years. The most recent one was three years ago."
three years ago?
Lin Shen suddenly remembered a name.
Since entering the Taoist temple, he has heard this name many times.
Before him, this man was the first person to win the title of chief as a disciple of Hanpu.
He even set a record of breaking through the Long Breath Realm two months after entering the Taoist Academy, and it remained unbroken for five years until his arrival.
Lin Shen often heard some disciples comparing him to that man.
"Brother Xie, are you talking about Su Liuying?"
"Have you also heard of Su Liuying?"
Xie Jingsheng glanced at Lin Shen in surprise, but then he thought of something and was relieved.
"That's right, Su Liuying is the third disciple to graduate from the Taoist Academy as a monk and become a true disciple since the Taoist Temple was established. She is also the disciple who has been promoted to a monk in the shortest time, taking less than four years.
!”
"What's more, what she created is an extremely rare second-grade spiritual vein! It can be said to be a unique thing that is rare in a hundred years."
At this point, Xie Jingsheng suddenly stopped and reacted suddenly.
The junior brother Lin sitting in front of him was already a cultivator in the Long Breath Realm before he entered the Taoist Academy, and he even broke through to the seventh level of Mingqiao in just over a year!
To be honest, Lin Shen's talent is much better than Su Liuying's!
If this trend continues, he may not even need three years to become a monk!
And as long as your luck is not too bad, the spiritual veins you create will never be lower than the third grade, and it is even very possible to create the second grade spiritual veins!
Thinking of this, Xie Jingsheng swallowed back the words of praise he was about to say and coughed to hide his embarrassment.
Lin Shen didn't know what Xie Jingsheng was thinking, so when he stopped talking, he took the initiative to ask: "What kind of cultivation is that Su Liuying now?"
As soon as these words came out, Xie Jingsheng's expression suddenly became weird and abnormal.
Lin Shen looked confused and asked, "What's wrong, brother Xie?"
Xie Jingsheng coughed, shook his head and said, "I don't know that either."
Lin Shen was stunned.
According to Xie Jingsheng, Su Liuying must be a highly-anticipated existence in Jiuyang Sect, and every move he makes will surely attract countless attention.
Even if you don’t know her specific cultivation level, you can’t know her general realm, right?
Seeing Lin Shen's surprise, Xie Jingsheng had no choice but to explain: "In fact, Su Liuying is not in the sect now. She had betrayed the sect two years ago and is missing."
Rebellion from the sect!
Lin Shen was really surprised now and quickly asked for details.
Xie Jingsheng shook his head slightly: "I don't know the details of what happened. I had just entered the Taoist temple not long ago. I only know that this incident caused a big fuss. It is said that more than ten monks died!"
"The Su family was originally expected to return to the ranks of the eighteenth family because of Su Liuying's rise, but after that incident, it fell into ruins and even declined more than before."
Lin Shen was silent, not expecting that there was such a secret behind this.
So, Su Liuying should be Su Nian's elder sister?
But in my memory, it seems that I have never heard Su Nian mention this clan sister.
But then I thought about it, Su Liuying's rebellion had brought a very heavy blow to the Su family, and it was understandable that Su Nian didn't want to mention this clan sister.
After sighing for a moment, Xie Jingsheng quickly dismissed the topic and returned to the topic.
"Junior brother Lin, we will gather at the east gate in five days and set off for the spiritual cave. This time we will stay in the spiritual cave for a month. Just in case, you'd better bring enough supplies and elixirs.
So well prepared.”
Lin Shen nodded to express his understanding.
After chatting for a few more words, Xie Jingsheng said goodbye and left.
After seeing off Xie Jingsheng, Lin Shen returned to the practice room and prepared to continue practicing.
There were only five days before he would go to the Spirit Cave, and he planned to improve the progress of Yunlong Law and the Nine Swords of Shenyang.
By then, when you arrive in the spiritual cave, you can use your talent to kill Zhengdao to improve your martial arts skills when hunting earth souls. Maybe you can break through Yunlong Law and Shenyang Nine Swords to the true martial realm in one fell swoop.
Of course, after entering the spiritual cave, the more important thing is to improve your cultivation!
"One month should be enough for me to improve my cultivation to 100% of the ninth level of Mingqiao. When I come out of the spiritual acupoint, I can start to build my spiritual veins!"
Lin Shen couldn't help but feel excited when he thought that he would be promoted to a monk soon.
After a while, he calmed down and began to concentrate on practicing.
Not long after, the sound of clothes breaking through the air and the sound of swords echoed in the practice room.
