Chapter 37: Controlling the Forces of Nature
After integrating his breath with the entire pond, Ling Chen slowly walked into the pond.
Since he had integrated himself with the aura of the pond at this moment, these tadpole fish were not afraid of Ling Chen, the suddenly appeared behemoth, and were still swimming around him leisurely.
"Huh, the next one is the most troublesome. Kill one of them... Don't attract the attention of other tadpole fish. Is this going to be faster than their reaction nerves?" Ling Chen looked at the tadpole fish that had already begun to gather in front of him. He understood that now was the beginning of this second stage of cultivation. After locking the target on the largest group of tadpole fish in front of him, he suddenly launched an attack on him.
Whoosh...
But at the moment when Ling Chen was about to attack, the murderous aura he released was immediately sensed by these tadpole fish. These tadpole fish spread out towards the surroundings like lightning, and a few of them ran slowly were trapped by Ling Chen with the murderous aura, and they also thrust their stomachs to death.
"I'm dizzy, it's really not possible!" Looking at the scene in front of him, Ling Chen also grabbed his hair speechlessly. He had tried his best to release the murderous aura as quickly as possible, but it still caused such a big disturbance. It seems that it is not easy to complete the second stage of cultivation given to him by the old man!
"It seems that this practice should be stumping this kid. I don't know if he can surpass my expectations this time, and understand the truth within a week and complete this second stage of cultivation!" The old man looked at Ling Chen, who was depressed in the distance, and smiled faintly...
"This second stage of cultivation is indeed not that simple. If this continues, I will probably not be able to kill all the fish in the pond!" Looking at the more and more tadpole fish floating on the water, Ling Chen also stopped his fish killing action. He understood that if he did not make any changes and continued like this, then there would be only one ending, that is, he would kill all the tadpole fish in the pond, and he could no longer complete the second stage of cultivation given to him by the old man.
"We must calm down, we must calm down. I must have gotten the wrong direction. This practice was not done by sudden burst speed!" Ling Chen, who stopped attacking, took a deep breath, thinking carefully about how he should kill this tadpole fish without affecting his companions.
"By the way, the old man said before that the first stage of cultivation is to integrate me with nature, and this is just the beginning. The second stage seems to be to use this natural power!" Ling Chen remembered what the old man said to him before, and seemed to have found the direction of this second stage of cultivation.
"How should I use the power of nature to say it's easy!" Ling Chen closed his eyes at this moment, so that his whole body was immersed in the pond. At the same time, he kept circulating his internal force in his body to release true energy to facilitate the sensing of the natural power in the pond.
... Quiet... Everything is so quiet. Ling Chen in the senses seems to be integrated with this pond. If you don't observe carefully, you will not be able to find that there is another person in this pond.
"Now my breath has become one with this pond, but how can I make this pond use it for me to kill one of the tadpole fish without letting other tadpole fish discover it!" Ling Chen was still closing his eyes tightly at this moment, carefully looking for a way to let him control the pond.
...
"Uh, this guy is still feeling it all day long. It seems that I still underestimated him a little. I didn't expect his comprehension ability to be so terrible. It seems that he can complete this second stage of cultivation in half an hour at most. This speed... Haha, it's really better than the blue!" Looking at Ling Chen, who had been staying in the pond with his eyes closed for a whole day, the old man in the distance was also a little surprised. He could feel that Ling Chen had been in the perception for this period of time. In other words, he had realized such a terrible comprehension ability. It is estimated that Ling Chen would be able to complete this second stage of cultivation in half an hour at most, in just one hour!
It was indeed as the old man expected. Ling Chen was completely immersed in his perception at this moment, and he had found a way to control the pond, that is, to let his true energy completely overtake this pond and let him surrender to him.
During this day, Ling Chen was slowly releasing the true energy in his body. When the internal energy in his body was almost exhausted, his true energy finally filled the entire pond. He could feel that at this moment the entire pond was controlled by him.
"Then the next thing is to clean up these little guys!" At this moment, Ling Chen also began to control a little bit of true energy in the entire pond, allowing him to wrap one of a group of tadpole fish.
The tadpole fish also discovered that something was wrong with his situation at this moment. He wanted to escape immediately but found that he was completely wrapped in a strange force and could not move at all. He was extremely timid in nature and immediately thrust his stomach upwards and was scared to death.
From the time this tadpole fish was wrapped in true energy to death, the tadpole fish around it did not notice anything wrong, and it was still swimming leisurely.
"Yeah! It's finally successful. This damn tadpole fish, the second stage of damn cultivation has finally been completed by me!" At this moment, Ling Chen finally breathed a sigh of relief, and he finally completed the second stage of damn cultivation.
"It's not bad, it's faster than I thought. It seems that you can indeed complete this training in less than half a month and restore your internal strength!" After Ling Chen killed a tadpole fish alone, the old man also came to his side, nodding to him with certain expressions and said.
"Old sir, what is the third stage of cultivation? Let's start immediately!" After receiving the old man's affirmation, Ling Chen was also very excited. Thinking that he could soon recover his internal strength, he couldn't wait to ask the old man.
"Don't be so anxious. This is the last stage of cultivation. You can get up and clean your clothes first, restore your condition to the best before practicing. You will get twice the result with half the effort!" The old man pulled the excited Ling Chen from the pond casually.
Ling Chen then realized that he had been soaking in the pond for a whole day, and his skin had turned a little white. Fortunately, he had 30% of his internal strength in his body supporting him, so nothing was wrong. If it were an ordinary person, he would have fainted long ago.
After changing Ling Chen into a clean dress, and after he fully recovered, the old man also let him start the third stage of cultivation. However, this time they practiced not in the pond with tadpole fish, but on the top of the highest mountain around.
"Old sir, why are we here to do this mountaintop? Is this last cultivation going to be carried out here?" Ling Chen was also very curious at this moment. He looked at the situation on the mountaintop and found no strange things at all. He asked the old man in confusion.
"Yes, this is where you practice the last one. The last one is said to be simple is the easiest, but it is also the most difficult!" The old man nodded and asked Ling Chen in detail: "Do you still remember what you learned in the previous two practices!"
"Learn to integrate with nature and control the power of nature!" Ling Chen replied seriously.
"That's right, the first item to let you catch tadpole fish is to let it fully understand the power of nature and integrate it with it; the second item to kill a tadpole fish alone is to let you use your true qi to control the power of nature and let it be used by you. Although it is all primary use, you can also practice this last item now, that is, let the power of nature enter your body and transform it into your internal force, which is the way of practicing in your Beiming Divine Art, so that you can extract the cultivation of Beiming true qi. As long as you can fully understand how to inhale the power of nature, when you first understand, the body can absorb the most natural power. Then refine these powers into Beiming true qi, then your internal force will definitely be much stronger than before you used the cartilage grass!" The old man looked at Ling Chen and explained seriously.
"The true energy of Beiming is the purest power!" Ling Chen was extremely excited when he thought that the Beiming magic skill introduced to him before could absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, the essence of the sun and the moon, and condense the extremely pure Beiming true energy. You must know that as long as the Beiming true energy has accumulated enough, it can use qi to refine the body, practice qi with body, nourish the soul with force to prove the Tao and break the barrier of heaven and earth, reach the realm of refining the emptiness and combining the Tao, and finally pass the tribulation Mahayana and ascend to become an immortal. Although the old man said that this process requires hundreds of years of precipitation, as long as he learns Beiming true energy, Ling Chen firmly believes that his cultivation can be improved to a higher level and become the top master of this Tianlong world, and is definitely not inferior to the powerful existence of Xiao Yuanshan, Murong Bo, Qiao Feng, Jiumozhi, and the "Four Greats of Heaven and Dragons" in the original work of "The Eight Parts of the Heaven and Dragons"!
"So old man, are we going to start now?" Ling Chen was very excited when he thought of all this and immediately asked the old man seriously.
"Well, you can start. Go to the highest point on the top of the mountain to have a good understanding. That location is the most spiritual energy of heaven and earth at sunrise and sunset. The effect of your understanding is the best there!" The old man pointed to a prominent land in front of Ling Chen and said.
"Thank you, Mr. Ling Chen will never forget your kindness!" Hearing that the old man had arranged it so well for him, Ling Chen also bowed seriously and expressed his gratitude.
"Don't be so polite, little guy, I'll remind you again, you'd better understand it within three days. If you can't introduce the spiritual energy of heaven and earth into your body within three days, then your body will have a certain repulsion to it. At that time, the Beiming true energy you can accumulate may be reduced directly by half!" The old man looked at Ling Chen and reminded with a serious look.
"I understand, sir, I will definitely not let you down!" Ling Chen nodded seriously, then took a deep breath, slowly entering his own state of perception...
