Hearing this, Liu Ming's heart skipped a beat. With a reply, he pushed open the door and walked out of the room, arriving at the small courtyard.
With a glance, he saw Shi Chuan and the red haired youth, "Yu Cheng", standing outside the courtyard.
Seeing Liu Ming come out, Yu Cheng's eyes had a complicated expression.
"Senior Shi, is Master Gui looking for me?" Liu Ming walked over and asked.
"Not only Master Gui, Martial Uncle Zhu and Martial Aunt Zhong are also waiting for you and Junior Yu in the hall at the top of the mountain. Eh … Junior Bai, you've become a Middle Spirit Apostle! "Shi Chuan said with a smile, but after carefully looking at Liu Ming, his expression suddenly changed.
At this time, because Liu Ming had just advanced, he was unable to restrain his Fa Li as he wished. With a glance, this "Senior Shi" was able to see through him.
"Senior's eyes are as sharp as a torch. I really did just become a Middle Spirit Apostle a few days ago." Liu Ming did not have any intentions of hiding it and calmly admitted it.
Hearing this, Shi Chuan, who was usually very calm, couldn't help but reveal an expression of disbelief.
As for Yu Cheng, who was next to him, after hearing this, he was a bit dumbstruck.
"So Junior is actually a cultivation genius. In a short year, you were able to become a Middle Spirit Apostle. This kind of cultivation speed is probably not inferior to Junior Xiao Feng's." Shi Chuan said with a bitter smile after a while. Only then did the shock on his face recede a little.
"How can I be considered a cultivation genius? I was only able to advance to the Middle Spirit Apostle level so quickly with the help of some external forces." Liu Ming calmly replied.
"Junior Bai is too modest. Even if you really ate some pills that can increase Fa Li, a Middle Spirit Apostle and a Beginning Spirit Apostle are completely different. As long as one has enough Fa Li, anyone can easily become a Beginning Spirit Apostle. However, from the Middle Spirit Apostle onwards, there will be a bottleneck. According to what I know, many Three Spiritual Pulse Disciples are stuck at the Beginning Spirit Apostle realm and are unable to advance for many years. But Junior Brother Bai, relying on the power of pills to increase your magic power is not a wise move. You still need to cultivate your magic power bit by bit to make it pure. In the future, when you encounter a bottleneck, there will be less resistance. " After Shi Chuan heard Liu Ming's words, he revealed a look of understanding. However, he shook his head and spoke with a deeper meaning.
When Yu Cheng heard this, a look of understanding appeared on his face.
Shi Chuan clearly thought that Liu Ming's cultivation had increased so quickly, and immediately thought of some medicinal pills that could increase Fa Li.
Within the Barbarian Ghost Sect, there were indeed a few pills that could increase Fa Li. However, they only had a certain effect on Spirit Apostles. Furthermore, the amount of Contribution Points needed to exchange for them was truly astonishing. Ordinary inner sect disciples would rarely be willing to exchange for it.
After all, for most disciples, as long as they did not encounter a bottleneck during the Spirit Apostle Stage, as long as they spent a certain amount of time cultivating, their Fa Li would slowly increase. If one were to encounter a bottleneck, taking this type of spiritual energy increasing medicinal pill would be like throwing a meat bun at a dog. Because of this, the Sect's Contribution Points were so precious that they would naturally be kept for other uses.
Of course, relying on medicinal pills to increase Fa Li was just like what Shi Chuan said. It was far from being as pure as one's own cultivation.
The Fa Li that Liu Ming had eaten from the giant rat's flesh did not have this drawback.
After all, the Fa Li in the flesh was cultivated by the monster itself. The Fa Li that remained in the monster's body after its death was the purest form of the monster's Fa Li.
However, if one wanted to purely rely on the flesh of a monster to increase Fa Li, it would be even more unreliable than relying on medicinal pills to increase Fa Li.
After all, only eating the flesh of a monster with a higher level than oneself could increase Fa Li. However, if one were to really face such a strong monster, it would be hard to say who would eat who. Furthermore, if one ate too much of the flesh of a monster, there would be other side effects.
Moreover, even if someone was willing to give it a try, there were very few demonic beasts in the Da Xuan Country. High level Spirit Master demonic beasts were even rarer.
Liu Ming had read a few books and naturally knew all of this. However, when he saw that Shi Chuan and Yu Feng had misunderstood him, he immediately smiled and did not say anything else.
Although the flesh and blood of the huge green-furred rat had already been consumed, and the other people in the sect couldn't do anything about it if they found out about it, it was better to avoid trouble as much as possible.
"Thank you for your guidance, Senior Apprentice Brother. I will definitely remember it. That's right, I don't know why Teacher Gui has summoned me and Junior Yu. Could Senior tell us a thing or two? "Liu Ming replied vaguely before asking back with some curiosity.
"I'm not too sure about this. I only know that it has something to do with the Nine Enlightenment Mountain. Also, other than the two of you, Junior Xiao Feng was also summoned." Shi Chuan replied hesitantly.
"The Nine Enlightenment Mountain?" Hearing this, Liu Ming was very surprised.
The Nine Enlightenment Mountain was one of the Five Great Sects in the Da Xuan Country. Whether it was strength or ranking, it was above the Barbarian Ghost Sect. Other than knowing that the Barbarian Ghost Sect specialized in puppet techniques, Liu Ming did not know anything else.
Liu Ming was still a little surprised in his heart. The three of them rode the cloud and went straight to the top of the mountain.
After a while, Liu Ming, Yu Cheng, and Xiao Feng all appeared in the main hall.
Not far in front of them, Gui Ru Quan and the other Spirit Masters were sitting on chairs.
However, Gui Ru Quan looked at Liu Ming, who had unexpectedly become a Middle Spirit Apostle, and furrowed his eyebrows. After a while, he shook his head and said:
"You actually used the power of a pill to shorten your training time. This makes me a bit disappointed. However, this is an unexpected surprise for what I am about to tell you. Therefore, I won't say anything more about you. Junior Martial Brother Zhu, tell them everything about this matter. "
At this time, Martial Aunt Zhong looked at Liu Ming with a bit of disappointment.
Among the three Spirit Masters of the Nine Infant Mountain, only this Martial Aunt Zhong thought highly of Liu Ming. After she mistakenly thought that he had used a pill to quickly become a Middle Spirit Apostle, she naturally felt disappointed that he did not live up to her expectations.
"This time, I called the three of you here because we had an agreement with Da Shang and Da Zhi of the Nine Enlightenment Sect …" Zhu Chi, who was standing to the side, slowly explained after hearing Gui Ru Quan's words.
Seven or eight years ago, Zhu Chi and Martial Aunt Zhong were invited by two Spirit Masters of the Nine Enlightenment Sect to explore a dangerous place. In the end, they found a tree full of unknown Spirit Fruits. However, these Spirit Fruits had not grown for long and were still far from ripening. Therefore, they made an agreement with the other party that once they ripened, they would split the Spirit Fruits on the tree. However, a few days ago, they received a letter from a Nine Enlightenment Sect disciple saying that these Spirit Fruits that were about to ripen would be decided through a battle between the new disciples.
After Gui Ru Quan and the others haggled with the other party, they finally decided to have three battles.
Liu Ming and the other two were the disciples that Gui Ru Quan and the others had chosen to bring to the battle.
"Although this type of battle is not a life and death battle, since it involves Spirit Objects, they will not easily stop fighting. Therefore, there will be a certain risk to their lives. If any of you are not willing to participate, you can bring it up now. The three of us will not force you. Also, since we are letting you fight, there will naturally be benefits for you. After we carefully looked through the records, we found out that these Spirit Fruits are the legendary Sky Jasper Fruits. Using this fruit as the main ingredient, we need to refine a type of Spirit Liquid that is very useful for low level cultivators. Applying it on the body will have a shocking effect of cleansing one's body. If you participate in the battle, as long as you win the Spirit Fruits and return, you will all be rewarded with this Spirit Liquid. Of course, the disciples that win will naturally be rewarded with more. "Zhu Chi said in the end.
"This disciple is willing to participate in this battle!" As soon as Zhu Chi finished speaking, Xiao Feng said without hesitation.
He, who had just become a Middle Spirit Apostle, was already very confident in his own strength. He was confident that he was not inferior to any of the disciples in the same batch as him.
"This disciple is also willing to fight for our faction!" Yu Cheng also had an expression of eagerness.
Liu Ming would not say something like "I'm not willing". After thinking for a while, he also expressed his willingness to participate.
"Very good, you are the three most outstanding disciples among the new disciples. However, the disciples that the Nine Enlightenment Mountain sends are definitely not simple. Therefore, for the next month, you will temporarily stay on the mountain top and familiarize yourselves with the method of fighting with puppets. The three of us will personally give you some pointers. This way, your chances of winning will increase by one or two points. "Seeing this, Gui Ru Quan said with satisfaction.
When Liu Ming and the others heard this, they naturally nodded their heads in agreement.
Thus, for the next month, Liu Ming and the other two stayed on the mountain top in a training field. Every day, they would fight with a few low level puppets.
Although Gui Ru Quan and the other two did not have a deep understanding of puppet techniques, they naturally had no problem controlling a few low level mechanical puppets and imitating a few common attacks of puppet techniques.
Moreover, the different attacking methods of the various low level puppets and the various attacking methods of puppet techniques practitioners were an eye-opener for Liu Ming and the other two.
Of course, in this kind of training, Liu Ming naturally would not use all of his methods. He only performed very normally among the three. This would not attract the attention of Gui Ru Quan and the other two, but it would also not make them truly disappointed.
A month passed in the blink of an eye.
On this day, Liu Ming and the other two, along with the scholar and the others, all arrived at the plaza.
Zhu Chi said a few words of farewell to the scholar before taking out a light yellow glyph. With one hand, he formed a sign and threw it in front of him.
After a puff of white gas, a green wooden boat that was seven or eight feet long immediately appeared in front of everyone.
This boat was long and narrow, dark green. The inside and outside of the boat were engraved with a few strange light silver patterns, giving off an abnormally mysterious feeling.
"Hehe, with Junior Zhu's Flying Jade Spirit Boat, going back and forth won't take up too much time." When Gui Ru Quan saw the green wooden boat, he immediately twirled his beard and said.
"That's right. If it wasn't for Senior Zhu accidentally finding a Thousand Year Old Jade Spirit Wood and paying a huge price to have Master Yu spend three years to refine it, how would we have been able to obtain this flying totem? With this totem, as long as we don't meet a few strong enemies who are proficient in escape techniques, even if we can't defeat them, we will have more than enough time to escape. "Martial Aunt Zhong sweetly smiled as she spoke.
