I have practiced so well that every attack I make is sure to hit.

"There's nothing wrong with your wife going to Haotian Sect. Don't worry, I will go with you in three years."

After Ao Dagang sent Yun Chuanzi away, he turned to Zhang Lingfeng and said.

"Master was only concerned with seeking immortality and didn't even think about whether my wife would get into trouble if she went to Haotian Sect."

Zhang Lingfeng snorted coldly.

"That's not what Master meant."

Ao Dagang wanted to explain, but Zhang Lingfeng didn't want to listen to nonsense.

Now that the situation has calmed down and the imperial power has been changed, he returns to the academy.

"You guys go now. The emperor is dead, and the Academy and the Martial Palace will also have to be reshuffled. The crimes you committed can be written off, but don't kill anyone anymore, otherwise the Academy and the Martial Palace will not let you go easily."

Zhang Lingfeng came in front of Tang Shi and Thousand-Faced Ghost.

The Thousand-Faced Ghost still looks like Meng Wanqing at this moment.

"Haotian Sect is an overseas sect, 100,000 miles away from here, and you need to cross the Black Sea. Even if you awaken your spiritual roots, it won't be easy to get there without the blessing of sword control or flying magic."

Tang Shi said.

"We in the Guxian Sect have many spells, and we are destined to be together, so I will give you an incomplete spell!"

The Thousand-Faced Ghost handed Zhang Lingfeng a sword-controlling technique engraved on cowhide.

"Thank you, senior."

Zhang Lingfeng looked very happy.

After a quick check, I found that the Sword Controlling Technique and the Sword Controlling Technique were fundamentally different.

Sword-wielding is mainly used for flying.

The sword-controlling technique is mainly used for attacking and killing people from a distance. If practiced to the extreme, one can even kill people from thousands of miles away.

As for the level of the sword-controlling technique given by the Thousand-Faced Ghost, Zhang Lingfeng still has to study it carefully, but with the blessing of his destiny, if he practices this sword-controlling technique seriously, he can slowly succeed.

Even if it is impossible to complete the Sword Controlling Technique, with the blessing of destiny, it can still exert a power that is better than the remaining parts.

Of course, the most important thing now is to awaken the power of spiritual roots.

Judging from Yun Chuanzi's tone, it seems that it is not so easy to awaken the power of spiritual roots within three years.

It was not difficult for Zhang Lingfeng to rush from Daxia to Haotian Sect, crossing the Hundred Thousand Mountains and the Black Sea. At most, he could ride on some ferocious beasts or merchant ships.

As long as you have a clear idea of ​​your goal, you won’t be afraid of not being able to reach it.

The key point is that if you cannot awaken the power of your spiritual roots within three years, you will not be able to enter the Haotian Sect, let alone reunite with Chen Duling.

Even if Chen Duling is willing to leave Haotian Sect and come out to find him at that time, Zhang Lingfeng does not want to ruin Chen Duling's practice.

After all, in the Haotian Sect one can obtain the orthodox method of cultivating immortals and become an immortal cultivator in the true sense.

It can even be said that even if Chen Duling was not there, the moment Zhang Lingfeng learned of the existence of the Haotian Sect, he also had the idea of ​​going over to find out what was going on.

He knew clearly that the Haotian Sect, which was more than 100,000 miles away, was not comparable to the so-called Xuantian Sect, or Guxian Sect, or even the major hidden families.

The people on various lists such as the Hidden Dragon List, the Prodigy List, the Youth List, etc. are all inferior in the eyes of true cultivators.

Especially after this incident.

Only then did Zhang Lingfeng realize how powerful a true immortal cultivator was.

Even Ao Dagang would rather give up his imperial power and follow Yun Chuanzi to practice in Haotian Sect, let alone him. So in Zhang Lingfeng's heart, he did not want Chen Duling's practice in Haotian Sect to be affected because of his inability to enter Haotian Sect.

……

So Zhang Lingfeng returned to the academy.

Start practicing Changchun Gong seriously.

He first looked at the panel information.

Realm: Martial Saint - Proficient (98/100)

Changchun Kungfu: Getting Started (236/500)

Ghost head three calls (100/100)

Ghost without a trace (11/100)

Thousands of Ghosts (9/100)

Ghostly Shock (7/100)

Devil May Cry (6/100)

Ghost Prison Confinement (4/100)

Ghostly Descendants (3/100)

Demon Slayer (2/100)

Whether it is Changchun Gong or Ghost Blade, both are extremely difficult techniques and skills to practice.

Even if Zhang Lingfeng is blessed with a natural destiny, it will still take him several years to practice these two skills to perfection.

During the previous two years in the basement, due to the thin spiritual energy and the suppression of the Haotian Seal, the numerical values ​​of Changchun Gong and Ghost Sword increased very slowly.

In order to awaken his spiritual roots as soon as possible, Zhang Lingfeng decided to go to the Shiwanda Mountains and return to the Ghost King's Cave two days after returning to the academy.

The spiritual energy there is strong and there is no conflict with the world, which can effectively help Zhang Lingfeng improve his skills and techniques.

Of course Zhang Lingfeng did not forget the potential threat.

He had offended a hermit family.

There were also conflicts with the Xuantian Sect.

In addition, Wu Yong was angered. Even if the other party did not dare to attack openly, he had to be on guard. Of course, Yun Chuanzi's warning could not be said to be ineffective.

People from the hidden families and the Xuantian Sect might not really dare to provoke him.

In addition, Chen Duling is now practicing in the Haotian Sect. If anything happens to him, Chen Duling will definitely avenge him.

At that time, even if the hidden family, Xuantian Sect or all the major forces were combined, they would not be a match for Chen Duling.

Therefore, with this layer of protection, Zhang Lingfeng does not have to worry too much even if he meets a strong man from a hidden family. Of course, he must be cautious when necessary and cannot take those people lightly.

Five days later.

Zhang Lingfeng entered the Ten Thousand Mountains again and returned to the Ghost King's Cave.

In the basement for more than two years.

He learned a lot from Tang Shi and others.

Not only did he master the ghost sword, he also learned the art of disguise.

In order to avoid causing unnecessary trouble and to concentrate on his cultivation, Zhang Lingfeng disguised himself and entered the Ghost King's Cave alone without notifying Ao Dagang and Wang Dashan.

Returning to the Ghost King's Cave again, the forbidden magic circle that once covered the bottom of the cave entrance was still there.

Now, Zhang Lingfeng can also break some simple forbidden magic arrays, or destroy them through brute force. He entered the Ghost King's Cave with almost no obstacles.

In this empty underground cave that seems like another world.

Zhang Lingfeng felt completely at peace.

He built a thatched hut in a place where birds were singing and flowers were blooming, and lived there to concentrate on practicing Changchun Gong.

The underground area of ​​the Ghost King Cave is very large, as if the entire underground of the Ten Thousand Mountains has been hollowed out, but Zhang Lingfeng has always remembered the location of the tomb.

In recent years, in order to cultivate immortal skills, several groups of people have entered the Ghost King Cave every year to search for treasures in the tomb, but few people have gained anything. Of course, it is not ruled out that some people, like Ao Dagang, are slow to speak after getting huge gains, but outsiders don't know.

The days passed by.

Time flies.

Three months passed in the blink of an eye.

Zhang Lingfeng simply scanned the panel information.

Realm: Martial Saint - Minor Accomplishment (43/100)

Changchun Kungfu: Getting Started (335/500)

With abundant spiritual energy, no more suppression from the Haotian Seal, and the ability to concentrate on cultivation, Zhang Lingfeng's cultivation progressed very rapidly.

In just three months, his strength went from 98% proficient in Martial Saint to 43% proficient in Martial Saint.

Secondly, the Changchun Gong value also increased from 236 at the entry level to 335 at %.

But there was still no sign of awakening the spiritual roots.

Zhang Lingfeng doesn’t know yet at what point in Changchun Gong practice he will be able to awaken his spiritual roots.

In fact, he asked Wang Dashan and Ao Dagang.

The awakening of spiritual roots is closely related to the dojo.

First, see whether the dojo is solid and reliable, and secondly, see how many runes are lit in the dojo.

He and Chen Duling are in tune with each other and are in perfect harmony with each other. When pulling the Phoenix Bow, Zhang Lingfeng looked at Chen Duling's dojo. All the runes in the dojo have been lit up. The Phoenix Spirit Root is like a phoenix, standing tall in the dojo, allowing the dojo to release powerful power and evolve the spiritual power in the dojo.

The reason why spiritual roots are extremely important is that they help the evolution of spiritual power. At the same time, the existence of spiritual roots is equivalent to connecting heaven and earth.

It will determine whether it is possible to truly achieve resonance between heaven and earth, integrate the power of the five elements, and even be in harmony with the laws of heaven and earth in the future.

The resonance between heaven and earth in the secular world is just the simplest potential energy among immortal cultivators. In the absence of spiritual power, any resonance between heaven and earth is a false resonance in the eyes of immortal cultivators.

Even if one can obtain energy, capture divine power, etc., it has nothing to do with the power of laws.

As a spiritual root, it is extremely important.

Only by possessing spiritual roots can one achieve heaven-defying changes.

Ultimately transcend the laws, outside the five elements and the laws, and gain eternal life.

Zhang Lingfeng actually didn’t know much. He knew roughly that spiritual roots were very important to cultivators, and they were even a basic force for building the foundation. Without the power of spiritual roots, it would be impossible to successfully build the foundation.

Therefore, awakening the spiritual roots not only means whether one can enter the Haotian Sect and be with Chen Duling, but also means whether Zhang Lingfeng can become a true immortal cultivator.

Even though he was blessed with a natural destiny, he was still worried in his heart whether he could awaken his spiritual roots.

If I really don’t have spiritual roots and don’t know the power of my destiny, can I awaken my spiritual roots?

Zhang Lingfeng thought a lot.

Finally, he sighed again. He could only hope that he had spiritual roots in his body. As long as he practiced diligently, sooner or later he would be able to awaken the power of his spiritual roots through the power of his destiny and become a true immortal cultivator.

To this end, he recorded the time while practicing seriously.

Spring passes and autumn comes.

Another three months passed in the blink of an eye.

It has been half a year now.

There were only two and a half years left before he went to the Haotian Sect. Zhang Lingfeng focused all his attention on practicing Changchun Gong. As the value of Changchun Gong continued to rise, the rune marks in the dojo were also constantly lit up.

Most of the rune marks in Zhang Lingfeng's nearby dojo have been lit up.

The value of Changchun Gong also increased from 335% to 456%.

With the blessing of a natural destiny, Zhang Lingfeng discovered that as he practiced Changchun Gong more and more deeply, his progress in this technique was also increasing.

Continue at this pace.

Or before going to Haotian Sect, you can practice Changchun Gong to proficiency, or even to a small degree of success.

By that time, all the rune marks in the dojo must have been lit up, and awakening my spiritual roots should be just around the corner.

However, during the past six months, Zhang Lingfeng also had times when he was slacking off.

The immortal cultivation techniques in the Ghost King Cave are particularly eye-catching.

In the past six months, several groups of people have come here.

Some people also walked near Zhang Lingfeng's thatched hut and saw Zhang Lingfeng practicing alone. They also tried to get some good things from Zhang Lingfeng. However, without exception, they were killed instantly by Zhang Lingfeng.

With the blessing of the Ghost Sword and the spiritual power of Changchun Gong, Zhang Lingfeng's current cultivation level, although only a minor success in Martial Sainthood, is enough to kill most of the powerful Martial Saints.

With his current cultivation level, if converted into that of a Qi Refining Realm cultivator, Zhang Lingfeng estimated that his strength was between the ninth and tenth levels of the Qi Refining Realm.

There are twelve levels in the Qi Refining Realm.

With the blessing of Changchun Gong and Ghost Sword, as well as the fate that every move would hit the target, Zhang Lingfeng felt that even if he encountered a strong man at the twelfth level of Qi Refining Realm, as long as he took the initiative, he could kill the opponent quickly.

Therefore, there is no problem with Zhang Lingfeng’s safety in the Ghost King Cave at the moment.

Secondly, the Ghost King Cave is becoming gradually lively, not because more and more people come in to hunt for treasures, but because more and more people, like Zhang Lingfeng, are attracted by the spiritual energy here and choose to live in seclusion here.

The place where Zhang Lingfeng built his thatched hut was inside the Ghost King Cave, a place with relatively rich spiritual energy, so he soon welcomed several neighbors.

Everyone did not disturb each other, but were wary of each other, and were all practicing seriously.

Occasionally Zhang Lingfeng would observe them.

He discovered that many of them were masters from hidden families, and there were also disciples from sects, but most of them were from the Xuantian Sect and the Guxian Sect.

In the territory of the Great Sheng Dynasty, the so-called sect strength is not as good as that of an outer sect of the Haotian Sect.

They all lack orthodox methods of cultivating immortals.

Without a complete system of cultivation techniques, even if some people have good talents, they will not be able to awaken their spiritual roots due to the lack of techniques, thus stopping at the twelfth level of Qi Refining and unable to successfully build a foundation throughout their lives.

Zhang Lingfeng observed those people and found that they were all like this without exception.

Of course, those who can reach the Qi Refining Realm have more or less mastered some immortal cultivation techniques, but their levels are not high. The ability to cultivate to this level is the result of step-by-step accumulation.

Everyone's age is beyond people's imagination.

Zhang Lingfeng couldn’t tell with his naked eyes how old they were. He could only see that many of them were at the end of their lives. It seemed that they placed all their hopes of successfully building a foundation on the Ghost King’s Cave and on the rich spiritual energy there.

But Zhang Lingfeng also noticed that several of them had expensive spirit stones on them. It was obvious that they did not lack spiritual energy in their daily practice, but they lacked an opportunity to successfully build a foundation.

Zhang Lingfeng had no intention of disturbing them.

He focused on his cultivation, and the days passed one by one. In the blink of an eye, another half a year had passed, and there were only two years left before the three-year agreement of Haotian Sect.

After practicing hard day and night, the Changchun Gong value finally broke through the entry level and reached the proficient level of 311%, .

At the same time, there were only three rune marks left in Zhang Lingfeng's dojo that could be lit up. Zhang Lingfeng had a hunch that when the last three runes in his dojo were lit up, he might be able to gain unexpected rewards.

"Fellow."

It is spring all year round in the Ghost King Cave.

Flowers grew on the roof of Zhang Lingfeng's thatched house. The environment he was in seemed like a fairy tale world. On this day, he planned to continue absorbing and refining spiritual energy to improve his attainments in Changchun Gong.

Half a year after moving in, a monk named Xu who lived by a nearby river came to visit.

Zhang Lingfeng frowned slightly.

Since the man surnamed Xu moved in, the two had interacted with each other before, but usually they just watched from afar. This was the first time that the other party took the initiative to visit like today. (End of this chapter)
