With the Body Thought Art, Ning Fan's comprehension speed was a hundred times faster than ordinary people, but the fatigue he had to endure was also a hundred times more.
Generally speaking, in the cultivation world, each level is divided into nine small realms.
Ordinary people would need several years to increase their cultivation by one minor realm, but Ning Fan's hundred clones allowed his cultivation realm to rapidly increase.
In just a month, he had cultivated the Black Demon Art to the first layer, then broke through the first layer and reached the second layer.
At this moment, the fire element of the Black Demon Art was balanced with the ice element of the Snow Treading Art, secretly conforming to the principle of Yin and Yang. However, Ning Fan didn't feel relaxed because he still needed to comprehend the two cultivation laws to the peak of the second level. In other words, he needed to break through to the ninth realm of the second level!
In the second level, every increase in realm would increase the power of the magical technique by at least ten percent. In total, the magical technique of a Harmonious Spirit cultivator at the peak would be more than twice as powerful as a cultivator of the same level.
In order to cultivate the cultivation laws, Ning Fan put in a lot of effort. To comprehend the fire element cultivation laws, he took out the Black Demon Flame and White Bone Flame for his clones to study. To comprehend the ice element cultivation laws, he took out the Bone Prison Qi for his clones to study.
Heavenly Frost Cold Qi and Earth Vein Demonic Flame were hard to obtain for ordinary people, but Ning Fan already had three of them.
Like this, the second month passed. Ning Fan's cultivation laws successfully broke through to the sixth realm of the second level and officially reached the peak of the second level!
After three months of seclusion, Ning Fan's magical power didn't increase, but his aura became more imposing, making people breathless.
He withdrew all of his clones and pointed a finger, shooting out a black fire dragon!
This Black Demon Flame was one of the nine dragon flames of the Black Demon Flame. When Ning Fan first cultivated it, it was enough to injure an early Harmonious Spirit Yuchi.
But now, with his peak Harmonious Spirit magical power and the peak of the second level, this fire dragon was enough to kill a peak Harmonious Spirit cultivator even without any magical technique!
Ning Fan's eyes flickered, then he pointed his finger and cast the first fire element magical technique of the Black Demon Art.
Dragon Vortex!
Inside the stone chamber, the black demonic fire suddenly spread out like a black ocean. It swept towards a huge rock that was a hundred feet tall in the stone chamber!
That rock was a 'Sword Testing Rock'. It was usually placed in a stone chamber for cultivators to use their magical techniques to attack. There was no other use for this stone. It was extremely hard, but its weakness was that it lacked flexibility and ductility, so it could not be used to forge magic treasures.
This stone was precious and hard to come by. Lan Mei had begged for this piece from her father.
However, after the flames engulfed the boulder, it didn't seem to be damaged at all. It was evident how hard it was.
In terms of defense, this stone seemed to be even stronger than peak Harmonious Spirit experts.
However, Ning Fan changed his incantation gesture. Immediately, the black devil flames turned into a fiery whirlpool, revolving around the gigantic boulder violently!
As it spun, the faint roar of a dragon came from the center of the vortex. Immediately, the power of the flames doubled!
Dragon Vortex, First Rotation!
After the first revolution, even a False Core cultivator would be incinerated. As for the giant rock, it emitted sizzling sounds. Although it wasn't damaged, its surface was melting at an undetectable speed.
"Second Rotation!"
At this critical moment, Ning Fan reluctantly performed the incantation gesture, forcibly causing the fiery whirlpool to spin once more.
After the second revolution, the whirlpool became even more violent and the power of the heart flame doubled again! It could even severely injure an early Gold Core cultivator!
Under the power of the flame, tiny rock chips began to peel off from the Sword Testing Rock. Although it wasn't much, it was enough to prove that the magical technique had successfully injured the giant rock.
After withdrawing the Dragon Vortex, Ning Fan heaved a sigh of relief. His eyes were burning with passion!
Dragon Vortex! This technique had a total of nine revolutions! Every time one of the revolutions was completed, the power of the magical technique would double! The second revolution could injure an early Gold Core cultivator. The third revolution could injure Bai Feiteng. If he could successfully condense a fire dragon in the third revolution, he could even injure a late Gold Core cultivator!
"If I can cultivate this technique to the third revolution and condense a fire dragon, I won't need to use every move as my trump card when fighting Gold Core cultivators in the future. I only need to use ordinary magical techniques … and I don't need to hurt myself first before hurting others in every battle!"
Ning Fan smiled faintly, but immediately, he seemed to have thought of something. His expression turned cold. He raised his finger, channeled the cold magical power, and pointed at the giant rock.
This cold magical power didn't have the support of the Heavenly Frost Cold Qi, so its power wasn't that great. However, when the cold qi enveloped the Sword Testing Rock, the scorching hot rock suddenly encountered extreme coldness and began to crumble immediately.
The core of the rock didn't crumble, but an inch of the rock chips began to peel off crazily!
When the fire reaches the extreme, use ice!
Ning Fan's heart skipped a beat. This was a principle that every tool refinement master would understand. When refining magical treasures, the most taboo was the rapid exchange of heat and cold, as it would easily cause the incomplete magical treasure to break.
Ning Fan realized that this principle could also be used in a battle. Imagine, if he encountered an enemy with a defense like a tortoise and a body as hard as a rock, he would first attack with the Dragon Vortex Fire and then use a tyrannical ice magical technique. No matter how strong the tortoise shell was, it would still be shattered!
There were only three types of ice magical techniques recorded in the Snow Treading Art.
The first type was the Ice Light Escape Art, which Ning Fan was already used to.
The second type was the Ice Armor Body, which could increase the magical defense. This magical technique was rare, so Ning Fan would naturally learn it.
The third type was the Ten Li Blizzard, which could turn a ten li area into a snowy world. This technique was extremely mysterious because it could change the weather. Perhaps the reason why Ancient Chaos remembered the Snow Treading Art was because of this technique. Once the ten li area was turned into a snowy battlefield, his ice magical power would be inexhaustible within the time it takes for an incense stick to burn, and he could obtain as much as he wanted from the snowy world!
This technique was heaven-defying! And it was difficult to practice it! But the most important thing was, none of the three styles of the Snow Treading Art were ice magical techniques. They seemed to be auxiliary magical techniques.
Without a high grade ice magical technique, Ning Fan could only settle for a low grade ice technique, the Ice Rain Technique.
The Ice Rain Technique was a Spirit level magical technique. Its effect was to turn magical power into ice rain that was as sharp as thorns, suitable for dealing with groups of enemies. A hundred drops of ice rain could be considered as minor achievement, a thousand ice rain could be considered as major achievement, nine thousand ice rain could be considered as perfect, and beyond nine thousand ice rain could be considered as limitless.
This technique was considered as an extremely common magical technique in the cultivation world. But on second thought, Ning Fan felt that it would be better to use an ordinary ice magical technique to freeze the enemy who was burned by the fire magical technique.
After being burned by the tyrannical Dragon Vortex, what would be the enemy's first thought when they saw Ning Fan using an ordinary ice attack? It would be that Ning Fan's magical power was depleted and he couldn't cast a stronger ice technique! It would be that this technique wasn't a concern, it would be carelessness and lack of preparation!
To make the enemy careless was far more important than the level of the magical technique itself!
There was an old saying in the cultivation world: Those who are good at swimming will drown, and those who hold an umbrella will get wet. Sometimes, using a high grade magical technique to attack and attract the enemy's attention was far inferior to using a low grade magical technique to trick the enemy and injure them.
Many experts who were cautious all their lives often died not in the hands of experts, but due to carelessness.
After the Dragon Vortex, it would be the ice rain. This ice rain would probably kill a lot of people.
"In this case, I will diligently cultivate my magical techniques in the following days. I must cultivate the Dragon Vortex Technique and the Ice Rain Technique to a higher realm!"
...
A month later, Ning Fan suddenly stood up. His left eye was cold while his right eye was blazing hot!
He pointed his right finger and the black fire burned the Sword Testing Stone like a vortex.
First Revolution! The stone body slightly trembled.
Second Revolution! Stone chips began to peel off from the stone body.
Third Revolution! The stone body shook violently and faintly began to crack. A black fire dragon leaped out from the vortex and fiercely bit the Sword Testing Stone. The power of the fire increased! Instantly, the Sword Testing Stone cracked like clouds!
However, this wasn't the end. Ning Fan's hand seals suddenly changed and the dragon fire disappeared. What followed was a thousand ice rain in the stone chamber.
A thousand ice rain turned into a thousand ice thorns and fell down. Its power was enough to injure an intermediate Harmonious Spirit cultivator, but it didn't seem to be worth mentioning to a Gold Core expert.
But when the ice rain hit the Sword Testing Stone, the Sword Testing Stone instantly let out a thunderous boom and shattered into pieces!
The Sword Testing Stone that was strong enough to withstand a peak Gold Core attack was shattered just like that!
The tremor spread from the stone chamber of Dual Cultivation Palace, turning into a strong earthquake that swept across the entire Dark Sparrow Valley!
The experts of the sect were shocked and left their houses. When they knew that it wasn't an invasion, they heaved a sigh of relief and looked towards the direction of Dual Cultivation Palace.
They were shocked to find that the tremor was caused by Ning Fan who was in seclusion in Dual Cultivation Palace!
"What kind of magical technique is Elder Ning studying in the stone chamber? How could it be so powerful?"
In the White Palace, Bai Feiteng who was condensing cold Qi suddenly stood up and stared at the Dual Cultivation Palace in disbelief!
The others didn't know what the rumbling sound was, but he knew.
"Impossible! Ning Fan has only been in seclusion for four months and he has already shattered the Sword Testing Stone! "
Bai Feiteng's face was filled with unwillingness. He had also shattered the Sword Testing Stone before, but that was the result of him continuously attacking the stone with magical power during his seclusion for dozens of years.
However, Ning Fan had only been in seclusion for four months and he had already shattered the Sword Testing Stone. It seemed that he couldn't underestimate this young man in this gamble.
"Humph! No matter what, I won't lose to you as long as I devour this Fourth Grade Cold Qi!"
Bai Feiteng stared at the purple cold Qi in the cold cauldron in front of him.
"I will never lose to Han Yuanji's disciple! Your superior-grade magic treasure, this old man is taking it for sure! "
