Ten Thousand Li Traveling Dragon!
Cultivation Chamber.
Ning Zhuo, in a seated posture, floated in mid-air.
Sun Lingtong stood behind him, also floating. A chubby, tender little hand was pressed against Ning Zhuo’s back.
Ning Zhuo was cultivating the Three Sect Superior Arts.
First, the Mirror Platform Spirit Technique, followed by the Five Elents Qi Regulation Art, and finally the Demonic Blood Tendon Technique.
At tis, his appearance was dignified and solemn, his face glowing with Buddha’s light. Sotis, the five elents surged around him, making him as ethereal as an immortal. Other tis, the atmosphere beca thick with blood, filled with demonic majesty.
Sun Lingtong’s spiritual sense extended through his body, observing Ning Zhuo’s three dantians.
In the upper dantian, the sky was vast and cloudless. The upper and lower parts of the dantian were smooth and flat, like two enormous mirrors, acting as the heavens and earth.
Suspended quietly between the mirrors were smaller mirrors. Various thoughts rapidly erged within them, only to vanish in an instant.
This was the Clear Mirror Spirit Light Dantian!
In the middle dantian, a five-colored vortex resembling a tornado pillar stood tall, connecting the heavens and the earth. The Five Elents Qi alternated between being distinct and mixed together, constantly transforming, perfectly demonstrating the mystery of the five elents' mutual generation and suppression.
This was the Five Qi Heaven Pivot Dantian!
In the lower dantian, the blood Qi was thick, covering the dantian, forming a crimson earth. On the ground, layers of blood tendons entwined like vines, crisscrossing into a giant net.
Within the blood tendons, the blood Qi surged fiercely, flowing endlessly. With each beat of Ning Zhuo’s heart, the blood Qi attached to the tendons rose and fell naturally like a tide.
This was the Blood Ground Demon Tendon Dantian!
Ning Zhuo had already advanced to the Foundation Establishnt stage. The three dantians had nearly solidified, with profound changes in their form.
After finishing his cultivation, Ning Zhuo slowly opened his eyes.
Sun Lingtong also slowly withdrew his hand.
The array gradually ceased, and both Sun and Ning descended to the ground.
Sun Lingtong exclaid, “Marvelous, truly marvelous! The Three Sect Superior Arts are indeed profound. Even one of them alone would be considered a top-tier cultivation thod.”
“If I hadn’t witnessed it with my own eyes, it would be hard to believe that such excellent techniques could be cultivated together. The Three Sect Lords are truly formidable!”
“Such achievents are absolutely earth-shattering.”
“We have endured for more than ten years, just for the fight over the Lava Immortal Palace, and it was truly the right choice!”
“Xiao Zhuo, if you continue cultivating like this, your future is boundless!!”
Sun Lingtong spoke with great certainty.
Ning Zhuo nodded, “It’s just a pity that the Law Transmission Bell only passed on the Foundation Establishnt chapter. For the Golden Core level techniques, I will still need to return to the Lava Immortal Palace for the Law Transmission Bell to continue teaching.”
Sun Lingtong humd in agreent, “That is indeed troubleso. We must guard against the ng family in this matter.”
“Boss, I don’t quite understand the part of the Demonic Blood Tendon Technique that says ‘Mind and Law Unite, Spirit and Flesh Connect,’” Ning Zhuo sought guidance.
Sun Lingtong stroked his chin, “I haven’t cultivated the Three Sect Superior Arts. I only used my spiritual sense to observe you practicing just now. I can only give you my insights, which may not be entirely accurate.”
“The comprehension of cultivation techniques is not just about understanding the Dao and logic in your mind. It also requires a part of physical experience. Only through cultivation can one deepen their understanding of the technique.”
“You’re currently only in the Foundation Establishnt stage, so the guidance of others still has so effect. After you reach the Golden Core stage and beyond, you will mainly rely on your own comprehension.”
“So, do you still want my help?”
Ning Zhuo imdiately understood Sun Lingtong’s aning.
In the future, understanding cultivation techniques would rely increasingly on the individual. If one didn’t cultivate the habit and ability to comprehend early on, they would suffer greatly in this aspect later on!
“Then I’ll try to comprehend it myself first,” Ning Zhuo said.
Sun Lingtong clapped his hands, “Haha, you’ve made the right choice!”
“Co on, let’s take a good look around this Ten Thousand Li Traveling Dragon.”
The Ten Thousand Li Traveling Dragon had a dragon spine as its central axis, with many chambers arranged on both sides.
The cultivation chamber where Sun Lingtong and Ning Zhuo were currently located was just one of them.
Apart from that, there were also the Dragon Head Chamber, the Void Refining Chamber, the Storage Chamber, the Furnace Chamber, the Infant Nurturing Chamber, and more.
The two wandered around and discovered that the Storage Chamber held an enormous amount of Fire Essence. The Furnace Chamber was full of raging heat, making it difficult to approach. Although the Void Refining Chamber could be opened, neither of them dared to take the risk. The Infant Nurturing Chamber, however, was empty.
Finally, the two arrived at the Dragon Head Chamber, where they saw the Dragon Turtle Fire Spirit.
It was curled up into a ball, nestled inside a giant pearl-like shell.
The pearl was about the size of a millstone, with a semi-transparent, lustrous, and smooth body.
Ning Zhuo reached out, his hand covering the pearl. In the next mont, intricate and dense array patterns revealed themselves, spreading from the pearl to the table, then lighting up the walls, and finally extending along the dragon spine to activate the various chanism components of the Traveling Dragon.
Ning Zhuo tried controlling one of the components, and imdiately a circular hole appeared in the ceiling. The hole emitted a humming sound, quickly drawing in and then replenishing a large amount of air into the Dragon Head Chamber.
This was the air regulator valve of the chanism.
Once opened, it could adjust the airflow between the chambers. In case of a fire, the simplest solution was to imdiately evacuate the air from the affected chamber, causing the flas to die out quickly.
“Fun, this is so fun! Quick, quick, let try!” Sun Lingtong watched Ning Zhuo play with the various chanism components, his heart itching with excitent, his face full of eagerness.
The Ten Thousand Li Traveling Dragon was a classic chanical creation.
Its combat abilities were weak, but it was extrely suitable for long-distance travel for cultivators. The chambers of the chanism not only provided various functions for the dragon but also offered a relatively stable and safe cultivation environnt for those traveling inside.
When Sun Lingtong was in charge, activating the observation chanism components, they both saw images in the chamber.
These were the scenes surrounding the Ten Thousand Li Traveling Dragon at the mont.
The surroundings were mostly dark, with thin silver lines crisscrossing the darkness, darting straight past the Traveling Dragon.
The silver lines were sotis sparse, sotis dense, and occasionally, blocks of silver light would gather and form.
“So, this is what it feels like for a Nascent Soul stage cultivator to pierce through the void?” Sun and Ning were both srized by the sight.
The Ten Thousand Li Traveling Dragon was of Nascent Soul grade, with its greatest strength being its ability to imitate Nascent Soul cultivators in piercing through the void, achieving long-distance directional teleportation.
As they neared their destination, the Traveling Dragon’s speed gradually slowed. The silver lines also changed, becoming thicker and larger. One by one, the expanding silver lines fused together, eventually transforming into the real world.
This process was short.
Sun and Ning only felt a slight tremor in the Traveling Dragon, and in the blink of an eye, they realized they were now surrounded by mountains.
Ning Zhuo imdiately took out the map jade slip and used his spiritual sense to scan the surroundings.
He found that the surrounding terrain was different from what was depicted on the map.
The Traveling Dragon was newly refined, with no existing information on its routes. It had to rely on external maps to guide its direction.
This map jade slip was sothing Ning Zhuo had obtained from Ning Jiufan, and it recorded the detailed terrain and landscape of the Ning family’s migration route.
But the map wasn’t precise, so Ning Zhuo had to adjust the Traveling Dragon, exploring the surroundings.
In this situation, there was no need to pierce the void.
The Traveling Dragon flew through the air, small as an earthworm, its aura concealed, making it inconspicuous.
After
exploring for about the ti it takes to burn half a stick of incense, Ning Zhuo finally spotted his destination—Mist Hidden Mountain!
The mountain stood tall and majestic, shrouded in layers of clouds and mist.
At dusk, between the gaps in the mist, verdant pine trees stood tall, fresh and green. The sound of streams flowed gently, forming a clear lody.
The Ning family had once been trapped here during their long migration, enveloped by thick fog as if they were lost in a maze, struggling for three days and four nights before finally breaking free.
If Ning Zhuo wanted to cure the Buddhist Doctor ng Yaoyin, he had to treat both the symptoms and the root cause.
As for the root cause, for now, he had no clue.
But as for the symptoms, he already had a plan. That was to retrace the Ning family’s migration route, searching for ng Yaoyin’s belongings along the way.
He hoped to find clues about ng Yaoyin’s identity and the source of her Dao injuries from these belongings. At the very least, he could use the cremated relics to enhance her spirituality, extending the ti she could wait for rescue.
Ning Zhuo controlled the Traveling Dragon, circling high above Mist Hidden Mountain.
The Traveling Dragon could adjust its size at will, shrinking down to the size of an earthworm, and with its aura concealed, it didn’t attract any attention.
At the foot of the mountain, Ning Zhuo spotted a village.
After a mont, he enlarged the Traveling Dragon slightly, letting it coil around his waist like a belt.
He and Sun Lingtong then made so minor disguises and walked into the village.
The patrolling male villagers, seeing Sun and Ning, imdiately shouted to stop them.
Sun and Ning both released their Foundation Establishnt aura.
The patrolling man was only at the Qi Refining stage. Feeling the imnse pressure, he still held his ground, bravely blocking Sun and Ning.
Ning Zhuo kindly reassured him, explaining their intentions.
The patrolling man, seeing Ning Zhuo’s friendly deanor, gradually relaxed, no longer as tense. “Oh, you want to go to the Mountain God Temple. Do you want to visit the real temple or the fake one?”
Ning Zhuo felt strange, “This is the Southern Dou Country’s territory. I rember the Southern Dou Kingdom had already destroyed temples and banned illicit worship. How could there still be a fake temple?”
Ning Zhuo wanted to search for his mother’s relics. Depending solely on the Traveling Dragon, he and Sun Lingtong couldn’t thoroughly investigate everything.
After all, Mist Hidden Mountain was a mountain, and its range was too vast.
Thus, the best way was to ask the local Mountain God.
The patrolling man quickly explained, “Even the fake temple is real. The Mountain God worshiped there has long been recognized by the royal family, so don’t worry, esteed guest. When we say real and fake temples, we just an one is effective, while the other isn’t.”
Ning Zhuo asked for more details.
The patrolling man pointed out that the real temple was the Fox Immortal Temple of the Deputy Mountain God, while the fake temple was the Tiger God Temple of the Primary Mountain God. The two were located on the south and north sides of Mist Hidden Mountain.
Sun Lingtong was slightly puzzled, “It’s often said that the fox borrows the tiger’s power, but here on Mist Hidden Mountain, the Fox Immortal is effective while the Tiger God isn’t. How has it beco the opposite?”
“We’ll know once we check it out,” Ning Zhuo said. Before leaving, he took out a spirit stone as paynt and handed it to the patrolling man.
“Thank you for your explanation.” Ning Zhuo smiled slightly at him.
The patrolling man took the spirit stone and, seeing the two about to leave, hesitated for a mont and then hurriedly stopped them, “Please wait a mont. I’ll go report to the village chief and see if you can stay in the village for the night.”
“Honorable sirs, it’s best not to enter the mountain at night.”
“At night, the mountain fog is the thickest, and many villagers have lost their way in the mist, eventually losing their lives in the mountains.”
“It’s better to wait for daylight before entering the mountain. There’s no rush.”
