106 Returning From the Sea (2)
Jiang Ming was overjoyed. Did this not mean that his strength could be greatly improved again?
However, Jiang Ming could not help but be a bit suspicious. He suddenly thought of the legend about Marquis Zhou Pingshi, and his fate after the immortal encounter. It was said that he wanted to break through the Grandmaster realm to a higher realm.
“Maybe Marquis Zhou is walking a similar path?”
Jiang Ming was shocked. Marquis Zhou had planned the bloodbath during the immortal encounter. If he reaped the greatest harvest from the immortal’s cave, he might really be able to break through the Grandmaster realm!
“I’m so jealous!” Jiang Ming grumbled. “I have no talent and no qualifications. I can only rely on forbidden techniques and cheats to barely survive. Whatever! I should celebrate my success today. I’m not practicing anymore!” He used up the wisp of spiritual energy he had refined, swung his arms and stomped his feet, and went back to the wooden house.
“The Blood Spirit Technique is complete. It’s time to study another one!”
After returning to the house, he relaxed for a while. Then, Jiang Ming took out the ancient book that Chen Dongfeng had been studying and started to read it from the beginning.
Late at night, Jiang Ming closed the ancient book, and his face was calm.
In fact, he had read this ancient book several times, but the content was too scattered and vague.
“Looking at the contents of this book, this immortal cultivator seemed to be mainly refining pills and making talismans as his secondary skill. He’s also recorded the Fireball Spell, which was a spell that he devised. In addition to this, he recorded a few medicinal herbs he had discovered. Other than that, they’re all records of his sales and profits. It also seems he’s a social butterfly who finds it hard to make friends among the immortal cultivators. Moreover, he mentions a red pine snowfield…”
Jiang Ming could not help but wonder if the red pine snowfield was the gateway to the world of cultivators.
He shook his head. There was too little information in this book. He could only gradually collect more information in the future.
In any case, he was not in a hurry.
“Let’s study this Fireball Spell.”
Jiang Ming did not look at the pills and talismans. They required a lot of spiritual material formulas, and the refining process required the assistance of spiritual energy. However, the spiritual energy refined by the Blood Spirit Technique could only be used for one’s own cultivation, and could not be used to refine anything else.
Jiang Ming had already read through Chen Dongfeng’s notes, which recorded his research on these pill recipes and several kinds of talismans. He even wanted to study and try to refine them himself.
Alas, there was no spiritual energy in this world. Even though Chen Dongfeng had thought of thousands of ways, he could not cultivate anything.
However, Jiang Ming also understood his thought process. An immortal cultivation technique like the Fireball Spell required a lot of spiritual energy. Ordinary martial artists could not learn this spell.
On the other hand, if he could find some substitute materials to refine one of those pills and talismans—or even a semi-finished product, it might be enough to have an amazing effect on his body.
It was a pity that Chen Dongfeng had underestimated the talismans and pill recipes of the immortal cultivation world. He had also failed to develop them successfully.
However, although he failed, his experience was a solid foundation for Jiang Ming to start.
Jiang Ming thought for a moment, then temporarily put these two immortal cultivation techniques to the back of his mind and concentrated on studying the Fireball Spell.
“Although the Fireball Spell is the lowest level of immortal cultivation techniques, the power of the spiritual fire contained in it is not something that ordinary martial artists can withstand. I just don’t know if I will be suppressed by the universe if I use it.”
Jiang Ming pondered for a moment and decided to master it first. “So what if it’s suppressed? Can it crush me to death? However, without any immortal cultivation techniques, it’s a little difficult to cultivate the spiritual energy that is refined by blood Qi alone.”
Thankfully, Jiang Ming was not afraid of hard work.
After creating a training routine, Jiang Ming began to practice these two techniques of the immortal cultivation world every day.
In addition, Jiang Ming did not stop practicing his regular martial arts as well.
He had slaughtered several martial arts families and collected a lot of martial arts techniques. In addition to the techniques collected by the Nameless over the years, Jiang Ming had now mastered a variety of martial arts techniques. Now it was time to sort them out and integrate them into his own martial arts system!
