Protagonist:
Xu Zhangqing
A few days later.
Wangwang and the golden-haired she-wolf had finished mating, and Hu Bugui sent him back.
Compared to before going to Ling Beast Valley, he now looked much thinner.
It seems his recent consumption has been quite high.
Xu Zhangqing felt very sorry for him and immediately made a pile of delicious food.
Wangwang was overjoyed, ate a few mouthfuls, then ran to Master's front and went "weng weng weng."
After finishing his flattery, he turned and went back to the food bowl side.
While eating, he might have felt the earlier flattery wasn't enough, so very soon he returned to Master's foot side again and began rubbing his head wildly against it.
Xu Zhangqing smiled: "Silly dog, you eat yours; I have other things to do. Anyway, there's no need to go to Ling Beast Valley again this year."
Perhaps the coaxing worked, for Wangwang finally returned to the food bowl side, this time burying his whole head inside and munching away with gusto.
The guinea fowl on Left Side saw this and showed a hint of disdain in her eyes.
Xu Zhangqing then went to Di Er Lou's Shu Fang and plopped down onto a chair.
During this period he hadn't been idle at all, brewing Spirit Rice Wine on one hand while studying the Earth Attribute Technique purchased from the Loose Cultivator market on the other.
Although there were three in total, he did not study them together.
One reason was that biting off more than one can chew is no good.
The other was that their focuses were different.
Therefore, from among Thick Earth Carrying Technique, Ten Thousand Stones Return to the Ancestry Record, and Kun Yuan Thick Earth Sutra, he chose Thick Earth Carrying Technique as the first Earth Attribute Technique to learn.
The reason for choosing it was mainly that after learning it, he could operate Earth Spiritual Power, enhancing his perception and control of Earth Qi, so it belonged to the priority techniques to learn.
And after this period of effort, he felt he was about to learn it.
Time passed minute by minute, about the time it takes to drink a cup of tea.
Suddenly, the Attribute Panel changed.
Thick Earth Carrying Technique: Earth Layer 1
Effect 1: Perceive Earth Qi within one zhang
Effect 2: Control Earth Qi within one zhang
In terms of effects, it didn't seem very powerful.
Xu Zhangqing was not surprised by this.
Although it belonged to High Rank techniques, after all it was a Fragmented Edition.
Therefore there were definitely problems in terms of effects.
Fortunately, he had an ability no one else had.
Whether to consume 8 years of lifespan to repair Thick Earth Carrying Technique completely?
"Yes."
This time, Xu Zhangqing was a bit surprised.
Unexpectedly, now repairing a High Rank technique no longer required ten years.
He remembered that in the past it often took over ten years, even several decades.
Thinking about it, it was truly a mix of bitterness and tears.
And the reason lifespan consumption had decreased mainly had two causes.
One, the accumulation of Knowledge.
Two, the richness of technique.
The more one learns, the more one understands, and consumption naturally decreases.
Very soon, the whole person entered the mysterious and profound Zhen Yuan Zi state.
Combining current Knowledge reserves, the experience and techniques regarding Thick Earth Carrying Technique were bit by bit repaired, and the content became increasingly rich.
Not long after, the content on the Attribute Panel changed again.
Remaining Lifespan: 634 years
Thick Earth Carrying Technique: Earth Layer 1
Effect 1: Perceive Earth Qi within five zhang
Effect 2: Control Earth Qi within five zhang
Effect 3: Earth Attribute damage reduction 15%
As expected, after repairing completely, all effects improved.
Whether to consume 1 year of lifespan to raise Thick Earth Carrying Technique to Earth Layer 2?
"No, I choose to go all in!"
Whether to consume 11 years of lifespan to raise Thick Earth Carrying Technique to Earth Layer 7?
"Yes."
Very soon, the whole person once again entered the mysterious and profound Zhen Yuan Zi state.
Since the content had already been deduced, it was just a matter of innovating the techniques.
Not long after, the content on the Attribute Panel changed again.
Remaining Lifespan: 623 years
Thick Earth Carrying Things Technique: Seventh Layer
Effect 1: Sense Earth Qi within thirty zhang
Effect 2: Control Earth Qi within thirty zhang
Effect 3: Earth Attribute damage increased by 50%
Effect 4: Earth Attribute damage reduced by 60%
Effect 5: Damage dealt to Water Attribute increased by 50%
Effect 6: Damage from Wood Attribute reduced by 30%
Effect 7: Earth Attribute negative effects halved
Special Effect: Thick Earth
Centering on himself, he released a Thick Earth Domain with a range of ten zhang, which could form a wall of Earth Spiritual Power, inflict a "Slowed" effect on intruders, and increase his own Recovery Speed by 15%.
Immediately, Xu Zhangqing's figure flashed, and he appeared outside the house in an instant.
After a few flashes, he had arrived near the entrance of Stone Mountain.
His first priority was not to enter, but to operate the Full Level Thick Earth Carrying Things Technique for the first time.
The faint Earth Spiritual Power in his Qi Sea began to circulate; unexpectedly, one stone stirred up a thousand waves, and the Earth Qi within thirty zhang rapidly gathered toward him, then seeped in through the Bubbling Spring point at the soles of his feet.
At that moment, Xu Zhangqing felt cool spring water surge up from his feet; once it entered his organs, his heart pounded violently, and his kidneys twitched wildly.
His whole person became excited, and a gleam flashed in his eyes.
At the same time, his own consciousness spread and permeated like Divine Sense.
With the help of Earth Qi, the covered range happened to reach thirty zhang.
Everything around him, even without using his eyes, could be perceived clearly, down to the finest detail, as if the earth had become part of his consciousness.
He could "see" the course of the Spiritual Veins.
He could "hear" the humming from the depths.
This state was extremely wondrous, easily making one addicted.
At this time, Xu Zhangqing raised his hand and waved, controlling Earth Spiritual Power to toss the large stone blocking the grotto entrance to the Left Side, then he drilled inside.
As he went deeper step by step, the familiar chill and Cold Qi appeared again.
And it was richer than last time, as if it would freeze even the Soul.
Not long after, he saw the cold-white cabbage resembling an ice egg once more.
The wound that had melted before had now healed, and even looked thicker than before.
This time, Xu Zhangqing came to transfer this "Lingti" into his Personal Space, so he decisively walked forward.
As he kept approaching, he gradually discovered that Earth Spiritual Power's resistance to this place's Yin Cold Qi was actually decreasing, even forming a "Water Insults Earth" counter-restriction phenomenon.
Only after operating Nine Flames Mysterious Technique and activating the Fire Spirit Power in his Qi Sea did this phenomenon disappear, and his whole person became warm.
Seeing this, Xu Zhangqing simply activated both Fire Spirit Power and Earth Spiritual Power in his Qi Sea at the same time, then came to the Front of the cold-white cabbage, pondering in his heart: "Why not, open it and take a look?"
No choice, the impression left last time was too deep.
Therefore his Left Hand shook, instantly turning crimson red.
The high temperature distorting the air had just appeared, and the ice before him melted layer by layer.
Soon, Xu Zhangqing saw the Ice Embryo inside once again.
But this time it was actually even more... lively than last time.
The current Ice Embryo faintly showed features.
Like a real fetus, it occasionally twitched.
The growth speed, isn't it too fast?
Just at this time, Xu Zhangqing's expression became solemn.
Because he had been operating the Full Level Thick Earth Carrying Things Technique all along, he had a very keen perception of the Earth Qi around him.
Suddenly he discovered that directly below this Ice Embryo, or rather the cold-white cabbage, the Earth Qi actually fluctuated, as if affected by something.
Xu Zhangqing's heart stirred, and his own consciousness extended downward along the Earth Qi without stopping, soon exceeding ten meters in depth, and finally as if it "touched" something.
A certain image flashed through his mind, just as if...
