I practice cultivation cautiously in a strange world

Chapter 12 Breakthrough in the mid-term

After returning, Chen Lin continued to refine elixirs.

After getting ten Chuyuan Pills as he wished, he started making talismans.

Although he still had some spiritual stones on his body, in order to hide his identity from others, he still had to sell some talismans to maintain the image that he relied on making talismans to make a living.

Or it may be due to the increase in cultivation. Today's condition is surprisingly good, and the level of refining the fireball talisman has improved again.

Coupled with his natural ability, he actually succeeded three times out of ten!

Three talismans with flame patterns were lined up. The more Chen Lin looked at them, the happier he became.

The success rate is 30%. After excluding the cost, you can earn 17 or 18 spiritual stones for just 10 materials. You can be considered a high-class person among casual cultivators in shantytowns.

After being excited for a while, he picked up the talisman pen and prepared to refine more at once.

Before I knew it, it was late at night.

"clang!"

A dull bell rang, waking up Chen Lin who was immersed in making talismans.

He was stunned for a moment, then stood up with a puzzled expression and came to the bronze bell.

"It's true that I set the time, but why should I time it to ring at this time?"

Looking at the mechanical device on the bronze bell, Chen Lin once again realized that he had forgotten something.

But he must have set the time for ringing the bell. Even the timing device was made by him himself. He still relied on his talent of hitting the target ten times to make it successfully.

What exactly did you forget?

Why set the alarm at this time?

Chen Lin thought hard.

That’s right, the red line!

Suddenly, a bright light flashed in his mind, and he remembered everything he had forgotten.

He quickly came to the window, opened it and looked at the sky.

There was silence.

The moon in the sky is very round and the stars are very bright, but there is nothing unusual about it.

The thin red line that must appear every night did not appear.

"Is it because the red line didn't come out, or because I can't see it?"

Chen Lin's expression began to change.

After waiting for half an hour, he closed the window gloomily.

"There must be something wrong with me."

He muttered something to himself and sat weakly on the chair.

The joy of improving the level of talisman making was gone.

After a moment of silence, he stood up again, quickly took off all his clothes and inspected them inch by inch.

After no abnormality was found, I started to look inside again to check the condition inside my body.

After some operations, his face became increasingly ugly.

There is no abnormality in the body.

The greater possibility is that the abnormality actually exists, but he cannot see it.

You can guess without thinking that it must be related to him being connected by the red line last night.

He is one of those 'marionettes' now too!

Not only could I not see the thin red line, I even took the squinting sneers from those people for granted.

I have been ‘assimilated’!

The more he thought about it, the more frightened Chen Lin became.

Fortunately, he was cautious enough and got an alarm clock, which restored his memory.

Although this alarm clock is not a calculator, the materials used to make it are magic weapon fragments, which have a certain awakening effect. When it was first made, there were considerations to prevent this kind of thing from happening.

Chen Lin looked up at the sky, his face sinking like water.

What kind of weird existence would it be that could turn an entire city of monks into marionettes?

Why did the other party do this? What is the purpose?

How to get rid of it?

He fell into deep powerlessness and panic.

For several days, Chen Lin failed to see the spectacular scene of red lines in the sky at midnight, and then gradually calmed down.

In any case, he didn't have a good solution.

Fortunately, he was still conscious and aware of his situation, unlike other monks in the city who were unaware.

Therefore, we still have to follow the previous plan, upgrade our cultivation to the middle stage of Qi training, and leave here after learning the flying technique.

Next, Chen Lin started frantically making talismans. After accumulating a certain amount of spiritual stones, he bought alchemy materials and refined the Chu Yuan Dan.

With the accumulation of elixirs, his cultivation level increased rapidly.

During this period, the city became increasingly unstable.

Following the disappearance of the head of the Zhang family's foundation-building family, the head of the Han family, one of the five major families, also disappeared for no reason, making the already chaotic monks in the city even more panic-stricken.

Moreover, because of the heavy snow, all the plants in the wild were covered, and the caravans that often appeared before did not appear for a long time. The food in the city began to become tense.

Not only food, but the prices of other cultivation resources are also rising.

Fortunately, he had purchased a large amount of supplies in advance for his retreat, otherwise he would have starved.

Chen Lin didn't care about outside matters, and was concentrating on refining elixirs while practicing.

With such concentration, time flies by.

Winter passes and spring comes.

Three months later.

Chen Lin, who was sitting cross-legged, suddenly opened his eyes.

He checked his body in disbelief, and then showed a look of ecstasy after he was sure.

"Really a breakthrough!"

Chen Lin gently clenched his fist, feeling the growing mana in his body, and his heart was agitated.

He was just trying it out, but he didn't expect such a breakthrough. Even he himself was a little unbelievable.

The process was simple and smooth, and nothing surprising happened. It was because he took three pills at once, which caused the medicine to be too strong, causing the meridians all over his body to tingle.

But compared with advancing to the middle stage of Qi training, this small side effect is not worth mentioning.

After calming down, Chen Lin raised his hand and slapped the table in front of him in the air. An invisible energy was immediately released, shaking the table.

Done!

The release of mana is a sign of entering the middle stage of Qi training!

He nodded with satisfaction.

If you want to use mana in the early stage of Qi training, you need to use a medium, and mana cannot be released out of thin air.

This is only possible when you enter the middle stage of Qi training.

This is why you cannot learn spells in the early stages of Qi training.

Although the magic power he just released only made the table shake, that was because he had not learned the spell. When he learned the spell, the power would naturally increase greatly.

The mana in his body increased several times. Chen Lin was so excited that he kept trying various ways to release it, making the room a mess.

It took a while to calm down.

Then he took out two more things.

A "Detailed Explanation of Elementary Spells" and a small, slightly green dagger.

This was something he had prepared before going into seclusion, fearing that if there was a big change in the city, he would not be able to buy it, or the price would rise.

Now it seems to be the right thing to do.

The short sword is called Xiaoyao Sword.

The name is quite domineering, but it is actually just a low-level, first-level magic weapon with a limited increase in mana.

Even so, it is still worth hundreds of low-grade spiritual stones.

This is already the cheapest among the magical instruments, and the slightly better ones are more expensive.

After learning about the price of magic weapons, Chen Lin even came up with the idea of ​​becoming a weapon refiner.

"Detailed Explanation of Elementary Spells" is much cheaper.

This is normal, after all, books can be copied. If you are not afraid of buying defective fakes and go to a regular store, you can buy them at an outside stall for the price of two fireball talismans.

Open the book first. The first page records the 'Fireball Technique'.

This spell is basically one of the necessary spells for monks, and all monks in the middle stage of Qi training know it.

In fact, according to common sense in the world of immortality, there are barriers to practicing magic.

If you want to practice a certain series of spells, you need to have the corresponding spiritual roots.

For example, if you want to practice this fireball technique, you need to have fire spirit roots under normal circumstances. Otherwise, you will not be able to sense the fire element in the world and cannot form a spell.

However, during the Qi refining period, the barriers to spells are not strong. Even if you don't have the corresponding spiritual roots, you can still use some media to cast spells, and low-end media items are also easy to find and very cheap.

Of course, the more labor-saving way is to use talismans.

Can't learn fire attribute spells?

It doesn’t matter, which spell you want to use, just buy the talisman!

Cash ability can settle everything.
