Collect crowd into immortals

Chapter 155 Soul Resistance (unfinished, continue tomorrow)

"So, we all have them, so this is weird!"

Chen Wanzhou murmured softly.

After discussing and field testing, they confirmed one thing, that is, they are indeed very resistant to interference and attacks in terms of soul and mana.

And this resistance is not small.

If compared with before, it is that the soul attack that used to give them a splitting headache is now just like a mosquito bite, nowhere near itching.

As for those with weak effects, they are almost like a breeze blowing on the face, almost gone.

It has an effect, and it is so obvious that several people are very puzzled by it.

When did they have this peculiar ability?
How could they not know.

When did this special ability appear? It appeared suddenly, so will it suddenly disappear again?

Also, is the weakening permanent, will it continue to increase, or decrease?
In this regard, several people were even more confused.

In fact, if they hadn't gone out to hunt the Golden Core cultivators this time, they wouldn't have known that they had that special ability.

Puzzled, several people also brainstormed and secretly guessed the possible reasons.

The first thing that can be determined is that when they went out to explore three or forty years ago, they did not have this ability at all.

At that time, they were all normal.

Even Li Gongjun, who often wanders in the mortal world, also said that 15 years ago, he once had a discussion with a monk from overseas. At that time, the other party just performed a [calming technique] and he was stunned for a long time.Even because of this, the discussion directly lost.

Of course, according to what Li Gongjun said, this was the result of him not checking for a moment, being too careless and defenseless.

But it is undeniable that he was really ordinary at that time.

At least, there is no current ability at all.

So what happened in those 15 years that made him so special.

Li Gongjun was puzzled.

In the past 15 years, he has done nothing, no adventures, no chances, no breakthroughs in cultivation, and no magic and secret techniques, but why did he suddenly have this special ability?

It shouldn't have changed suddenly!

"Could it be that our Fengshui is good here, that's why..."

Regarding his speculation, Jiang Ziling on the side was speechless and choked, "Good Feng Shui? Where is the good Feng Shui? Let's just stay normal here! Otherwise, will it be our turn to have a good place?"

These words made Chen Wanzhou and others beside him nod their heads.

I still remember that 300 years ago, their ancestors were just ordinary monks in the foundation building period. Just because the first batch followed, made some achievements, and encountered a good opportunity, each family was assigned a moderately sized building. of islands.

That's it, it still only has a 500-year period.

After 500 years, if no one in their clan has been promoted to Jindan and has not made any great achievements, then they will have no choice but to give up the island.

At least, a large part must be given up.

Because, an entire island is actually the size of the territory of a normal Jindan family.

In the past, they were able to occupy it only because of meritorious service, and the population was really small at that time.

After that, you can only do it according to the rules.

The Jindan Island is shared by several foundation-building families, and dozens or hundreds of Qi-training families are crowded together.

This is actually the normal status quo in the world of cultivation.

Like them, there are also the first batch of pioneers who came to the Canglan Sea together and participated in the conquest of the sea.They were all assigned to territories one level higher than their own.

Building a foundation is the scale of Jindan.

Golden elixir is the scale of Nascent Soul.

But even at the same level, there are actually upper and lower levels.

Just like Lianhu Island, which is more than three hundred miles long and wide, it doesn't look small.Even if the Chen family owns the entire island and has developed it for more than 300 years, it has only developed twenty or thirty miles from the center of the island.Elsewhere, mostly wilderness.

The Chen family on Lianhu Island is like this, the Jiang family on Wangyue Island, and the Xu family on Limeng Island are similar.They are all small islands and have only been developed a little bit.

But they are them. Like them, the Yun family of Chaoyuan Island, who is also a member of the Ji-building family, has a territory of more than [-] miles.

There is a difference of nearly three times between the length and breadth of more than five hundred miles and the length and breadth of more than three hundred miles. (area)

It can be said that despite the large number of islands of the five ethnic groups in the southern region, they are actually a little behind Chaoyuan Island.

At least in terms of island resources, none of the five of them is the enemy of the other.

If this is the case, how can it be considered good feng shui?

Of course, Li Gongjun is also well aware of the reason.

Why can other people have such a big island, but they can't? It's not because the ancestors of the Yun family in Chaoyuan Island have completed the foundation building, have outstanding military exploits, and have the priority to choose.

And the five of them, um...

It's good to have it!At least much better than those juniors, much better than those casual cultivators.

But for a moment, another idea popped into Li Gongjun's mind.

"Then... Could it be that we have some treasure here, and it appeared suddenly?"

Genius and earth treasure, any strange ability is understandable.

However, Jiang Ziling continued to roll his eyes.

"What treasures are there? If there are any, they have been poached by others. Don't forget, the people around us have never stopped watching. If there are treasures, how can they bear it?"

Hearing this, Li Gongjun touched his nose and said helplessly: "Okay! Just pretend I didn't say anything."

In fact, ever since the five families withdrew their clansmen back nine years ago to specialize in the "Fellow Path Enlightenment Method", the spies around them have never stopped.

Especially in the later stage, the five of them established their advantages in all kinds of cultivation arts such as alchemy and refining equipment through the "Shen Wu Fa", and refined a large number of top-grade pills, top-grade magic weapons, and even rare top-grade pills and magic weapons. Magical instruments are also sold from time to time.

Such behavior naturally caused Ziyun Island's business to move to the five of them.

This naturally caused others to discuss and scramble to spy.

Fortunately, they have always acted cautiously, signed a confidentiality contract for everything, and have never let the clansmen act alone, so they did not give the other party a chance.

Especially after mortals joined in, the arithmetic level of the five families developed rapidly, one level at a time, and it didn't take long to surpass all the ancestors of the family in the past 300 years.

In this way, in less than a few years, their formation levels have rapidly improved, and they have even upgraded the family formation several times.

This blocked the prying of those jackals.

And among them, if there is really any mysterious treasure around them and affecting them, it will definitely be noticed by others.

If you don't notice it now, there is a high probability that you really don't have it.

"and many more……"

Thinking of this, Li Gongjun was suddenly startled, "It's been more than ten years, and we still have it? Doesn't that mean there is a ready-made mysterious treasure?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone in the field was stunned.

Isn't there no treasure left, why did it come out again?

Just when they were about to refute, Jiang Ziling, who had always been attentive, heard the true meaning of his cousin's words.

"You mean, "The Dharma of Compassion and Enlightenment"?"

As soon as he said this, before his cousin Li Gongjun could respond, Jiang Ziling nodded thoughtfully.

Isn't it, this "Tong Dao Enlightenment Method" is a mysterious treasure with extraordinary effects!
The rapid development of the five of them in the past few years depends on what, not on her.

Take the Jiang family of Wangyue Island as an example. In recent years, although they have not distributed the foundation building pills in the clan like their relatives in Lianhu Island, they have no intention of being stingy.As long as the contribution points of the clansmen are really enough, then the Foundation Establishment Pill is also in charge.

No, just three years ago, they finally added a new Foundation Establishment cultivator to Wangyue Island.

Get rid of the embarrassment of being incomplete.

In this way, she, as the leader of the clan, would take the risk in this action.

Otherwise, no matter whether it is to preserve the family inheritance or prevent the family from falling too far behind, the only Foundation Establishment in her family would not take any risky actions.

Although, this time she was not in danger at all.

Although the words are long, these thoughts are just Jiang Ziling's thoughts.

After figuring it out, Jiang Ziling was about to sigh when suddenly, another thought came to her mind. She turned her eyes to her cousin Chen Wanzhou. Seeing that his expression was as normal, as if he really hadn't guessed it, she tentatively asked with some surprise. :
"Cousin Wanzhou, are there really any other secrets in this "Method of Enlightenment"?"

As soon as these words came out, Xu Daoyi, Li Gongjun, and Wang Zhongtai, who were meditating beside them, immediately reacted and looked at the cousins ​​and uncles in front of them with doubtful eyes.

At this moment, they finally remembered. Back in the day, not long after the five of them released the "Shen Wu Fa", they ran into Lianhu Island wantonly upgrading their spiritual veins, and one upgrade was four, which attracted a large-scale attack by monsters islands.

I remember that when the four of them came to support, their cousin said that they must pay attention to the "Shen Wu Fa".

And it was emphasized several times.

I remember that they asked several times at that time, but the other party just smiled mysteriously, but did not say anything clearly.

And then, when the four of them had learned enough spells and were about to temporarily end the "Shen Wu Fa", Lianhu Island suddenly increased their support for the "Shen Wu Fa", which made them have to Keep up again.

Also, remember that in the middle, it was Lianhu Island who first discovered that mortals could also use the "Shen Wu Fa", and also expanded the scope of application of the "Shen Wu Fa" to mortal arithmetic.

As a result, the formation level of the five families is developing rapidly.

That's not all. I remember one time, they actually heard that this cousin actually sent the new generation of the family to the mortal world, asking them to follow arithmetic and calculations instead of practicing what cultivators must learn. Spells and cultivation.

All of this seemed to indicate that their cousin's family had a secret, and it was a big secret.

As for other anomalies, such as the abnormal cultivation of those great-grandsons and great-granddaughters, they don't want to pursue it anymore.

Less than nine years of practicing Qi at the ninth level?
You said that it was made with top-grade pills and massive resources.

Each of the five families knows who the other is. Everyone knows how many resources each family has and how many top-quality elixirs they have.This doesn't fool them at all.

But for the harmony of several families, they didn't ask too much.

At this moment, after sorting out all these things, Jiang Ziling and the others realized that the secret of their cousin was a bit big!Actually concealed so much from them at once.

Thinking of this, several people looked at Chen Wanzhou with meaningful expressions.

Little cousin, little cousin, do you still want to play together? If you don’t want to play, then just let’s break up and let each of us do our own thing.

Although the words were not spoken, the meaning was clearly expressed. After thinking for a long time, Chen Wanzhou said: "Let's do this, one year, give me another year, and then I will definitely make it." Tell me clearly and clearly what happened."

Seeing a few people thinking deeply, he continued: "The results haven't come out yet, and I really can't say more. You can't even ask. Just wait for another year!"

"One year? Really?" Jiang Ziling confirmed again.

"Of course it's true! Our five families are as close as one family. Could it be that cousin will abandon you?"

Hearing this, Jiang Ziling nodded slowly.

Abandoning them, the Chen family is likely to continue to develop, but what about the monks of the four clans on Lianhu Island?
Besides, as a family monk, you always have to get married and have children to raise future generations. If you leave them behind, can the Chen family have children of their own?

This is simply not possible.

Taking a step back, they directly found a group of casual cultivators to combine, but the issue of confidentiality still exists, what should they do then?It's not about signing a confidentiality contract to strictly guard against it.

But although this confidentiality contract is good, it cannot restrain people's hearts.

Others cheat on you, play tricks on you, and sabotage your work. How can you still monitor others all the time?

For surveillance, one per person?Then do you want to do something.

Under such conditions, people's hearts are not in harmony and they are fighting against each other, how fast will their Chen family develop?
So, it's better to continue with them.

At least, their five families have been married for more than [-] years, and their hearts have become one.The force can be used together.There will be no such thing as a fly camp dog dog.

(If you combine with a foreign race, at least vital operations such as ethnology, alchemy, weapon refining, and even cultivating spiritual plants must be done by the Chen family. Otherwise, if someone makes trouble, the consequences can be imagined.)
After figuring this out, Jiang Ziling and the others did not continue to struggle.

It's only a year anyway, they can afford to wait.

Afterwards, several people chatted for a while, then got up to say goodbye.

After everyone dispersed and returned to their respective houses, Chen Cuncheng and Chen Wanzhou looked at each other.

"Wan Zhou, are you really the credit for that "Shen Wu Fa"?"

At this moment, Chen Cuncheng still couldn't believe it. Didn't he say that it was only to improve the efficiency of comprehension? Why did a new path suddenly appear, and now a soul resistance suddenly popped up? How amazing?

Is this really created by a few young guys and girls who have just started practicing?

Chen Cuncheng remained silent.

If you want to say that this is the skill of transforming the gods, that it is the teaching of the gods, he is confident, but for a few young people who are just fledgling, this is a bit unbelievable.

In fact, Chen Wanzhou couldn't believe it.

But ruling out several other far more outrageous scenarios, this scenario is now the most likely.

So he could only reply: "Yes or no, let's try it and find out!"

"try?"

……

As soon as he returned to Lianhua Mountain, Chen Wanzhou began to organize manpower for testing.

The same practice, but different practice time of "Shen Wu Fa";
The practice time of the same "Shen Wu Fa" is different;

Regardless of cultivation level, simply choose the practice time of "Shen Wu Fa";
The same cultivation base, embark on a new road or not;
The same "Shen Wu Fa" practice time, whether to embark on a new road or not;

……

In short, they tested everything they could.

In this test, almost all clansmen joined in.

The five brothers and sisters Chen Qingxuan and Chen Qingzhu; the five brothers and sisters Chen Changsheng and Chen Changyou; Chen Changhui, Chen Changhao, Jiang Zhimei and others were not absent.

Even Chen Guting, who no longer appeared in public, was impressively listed.

"Chen Changhao, at the early stage of foundation establishment, he has practiced the method of comprehension for nine years and three months, and without any means of resistance, the early stage of foundation establishment [Spiritual Concentration Art] can calm his mind for a tenth of his breath.

If the soul defense spirit weapon is used, it will take one-fiftieth of the breath for the first time to concentrate, one-hundred-twoth of the breath for the second time, and one-sixth of 280 for the third time...

As for the calming spell during the qi training period, it is only slightly disturbed and has no calming effect. "

"Chen Changge, at the early stage of foundation establishment, he has practiced the method of enlightenment for nine years and six months. Without any means to resist, the initial stage of foundation establishment [Spiritual Concentration Art] can calm his mind for one tenth thirty-sixth breath.

If you use the soul defense spirit weapon, you need to calm your mind for one-fifth of the breath for the first time, one-fifth of the breath for the second time, and one-fifth of the breath for the third time..."

"Chen Guting, at the early stage of foundation establishment, practiced the method of enlightenment for nine years and six months (presumably more than 63 years), embarked on a new path, without using any means to resist, the initial stage of foundation establishment [spiritual concentration technique] 】It can calm the mind for [-]/[-] breath.

If you use the soul defense spirit weapon, the first time will be 850 one-sixth breaths, the second time will be 330 one-third breaths, and the third time...

Special Note: During the qi training period, the calming spell has no effect. "

"Chen Guzhe, who has perfected his Qi training, has been practicing and comprehending the law for zero months, and without using any means to resist, the Qi Qi Perfection level [Calming Soul Technique] can allow him to calm down for one third of his breath.

If you use the Soul Defense Magical Artifact, you need to take one-tenth of the breath for the first time, one-sixteenth for the second time, and one-twenty-fifth of the breath for the third time..."

"Chen Gumin, who has perfected his Qi training, has been practicing the enlightenment method for nine years and six months. Without using any means to resist, the perfect level of Qi training [Calming Spirit Technique] can calm him for one-eighth of his breath.

If you use the Soul Defense Magical Artifact, you need to calm your mind for 36/150 breath for the first time, [-]/[-] breath for the second time, and [-]/[-] breath for the third time..."

"Chen Changhui, he has perfected Qi training and practiced the Shenwu method for nine years and two months. Without any means to resist, the perfect level of Qi training [Spiritual Concentration Art] can calm his mind for one-seventh of one breath.

......"

"Chen Qingxuan, who has cultivated to the ninth level of qi training, has practiced Shenwu method for nearly 20 years, embarked on a new path, and without any means to resist, the perfect level of qi training [Spiritual Concentration Art] can calm his mind for 53/[-] breath.

If you use the magic weapon of soul defense, the first time will be 620 one-third breath, the second time 2000 one-hundred and 46th breath, and the third time..."

"Chen Changsheng, who has cultivated to the fourth level of qi training, has practiced the enlightenment method for nine years and six months (estimated to be about 11 years), embarked on a new path, and without using any means to resist, he reached the perfect level of qi training [Calming the Mind] Technique] can make him calm down for 39th of his breath.

If a soul defense weapon is used, the first time of concentration will be 420 and one-fifth of a breath, the second time of [-] and one breath, and the third time..."

"Chen Changman, who has cultivated to the seventh level of Qi training, has practiced the Shenwu method for nine years and six months, and practiced with all his strength for about three years and two months. He has not set foot on a new path, and without any means to resist, he has completed Qi training. [Spiritual Concentration Art] It can calm the mind for [-] breaths.

......"

Looking at these statistics, Chen Guting made calculations, and then said:

"According to the existing data, the effect of the "Enlightenment Method" is quite obvious. It can reduce the effect of soul attacks of the same level by half in almost five years.

If there are soul defense artifacts and spells, the effect will be better.

At the same time, the higher the cultivator's cultivation level, the higher the resistance to soul attacks.However, this effect is not very obvious, and the effect will be significant only after the breakthrough of the big realm.

……

Finally, there is the issue of the new path. From the data, we can find that as long as you set foot on the new path, regardless of your cultivation level, the soul's resistance will suddenly soar, even by five to six times. The effect is beyond doubt. "

After hearing this, Chen Wanzhou, Chen Cuncheng and others nodded slowly.

"It seems that this is it!"

With accurate data and comparative experiments, they confirmed that their initial feelings were indeed correct.

But it can be reduced by half in these five years, and it can be reduced by five or six times as long as you set foot on a new road. This effect...

The two pondered for a long time before they said thoughtfully: "We will definitely take this new path!"

You must know that in the world of comprehension, apart from good cultivation techniques, soul attack and defense methods are almost the most rare.

Leaving aside the means of attack, the means of defense are what everyone desires.Nothing else, because it saves lives.

As the saying goes, only if you stand firm and save your life can you have a future and hope.

Otherwise, even if you are powerful and wise, you will only be able to leave with regrets.

Now, in front of the Chen family of Lianhu Island is a shortcut with high cost performance. It is very clear how they choose.

Improving cultivation, spells, and skills can also improve the defense ability of the soul and life-saving ability. How dare they miss such a good thing?

Immediately, the group immediately made a decision that they must let the clansmen embark on a new path, no matter how high the price was, they would not hesitate.

After it was over, Chen Wanzhou suddenly turned his gaze to Chen Qingxuan and the others who had been listening by the side.

"Qingxuan, how is your progress? When will you reach perfection."

"Another six or seven months! Soon!" Chen Qingxuan replied.

"Six or seven months?"

Chen Wanzhou murmured, and then said: "Then it will be up to you then."

Qingxuan nodded without saying a word.

After six or seven months, when his cultivation is completely perfect, it will depend on whether the new path still works.

If it works, then all is well; if not, the family will have to find another way.

Anyway, as the discoverer of the new road and one of the first practitioners of the new road, the family will try their best to continue to let him go on it.

Because at this time, what he represented was not him alone, but the hope of all the people in Lianhu Island.

Whether the Chen family of Lianhu Island can keep their family business and rise rapidly depends on him and his few friends.

After silently sighing, Chen Wanzhou suddenly said: "By the way, how is the matter between you and that little girl from the Jiang family? I heard that Baicaotang doesn't want to release her?"

"Uh, no!"

Chen Qingxuan shook his head, "It's my grandma who said that we must wait for You Ning and I to break through the Foundation Establishment."

"That's it!"

Chen Wanzhou nodded. "Then you continue to work hard! Strive for an early foundation establishment."

But when he nodded, he was actually making some plans silently in his heart.

Chen Qingxuan didn't know anything about this and just nodded silently.

After a while, Patriarch Chen slapped his forehead again, and said: "By the way, our Chen family has acquired a puppet technique this time. If you are interested, you can study it."

As he spoke, he waved his sleeves and summoned a jade slip.

"Puppetry? [Thousand Machine Puppetry]?"

……

While everyone in the Chen family was studying the loot, Jiang Ziling and others also returned to their family.

As soon as they went back, they also immediately organized people to test the soul resistance of the clansmen.

As for the results, it was also confirmed that it was indeed related to the "Shen Wu Fa".

The longer you practice "Method of Enlightenment", the better your resistance to soul attacks becomes.The best ones can even be weakened by two to three times.

"No wonder, no wonder!"

Su Xinfeng of Wangyue Island, looking at the experimental report in his hand, Jiang Ziling couldn't help but nodded thoughtfully.

Since she came up with the "Tong Dao Shen Wu Fa", she has spent almost all her time on it.

Every day, he is not comprehending alchemy formulas, discussing the way of alchemy, or practicing the art of controlling fire with the clansmen.

After more than nine years of hard work, up to now, not only has her level of alchemy improved greatly, but she has also made rapid progress in fire magic, and she even feels that she is only a thin line away from her own goal.

If she is like this, the rest of them should not relax.

Thinking of this, Jiang Ziling couldn't help but sigh secretly: No wonder I didn't feel much when the soul attack came. It turns out that's how it is!One-third or one-fourth of the power is indeed not much.

But just after feeling emotional, she thought about the situation of the Chen family on Lianhu Island, and secretly made a decision.

In the afternoon of that day, all the monks on Wangyue Island received an announcement saying that the family would continue to support the practice of "Tong Dao Enlightenment Method" and that all clan members should not slack off.

Among them, the previous test results were also notified.

And sure enough, after getting the news, all the clansmen on the island immediately became enthusiastic.

Nothing else, weakening the soul attack to a third, a quarter, which is almost equivalent to a better soul defense magic weapon.

Now, they can directly wear two, but they can still be superimposed, so how can this not make the cultivators in the clan go crazy.

This is simply a protective artifact, isn't it?

Moon-watching Island is like this, how can the other clans fall behind.

The first time Xu Daoyi, Li Gongjun, and Wang Zhongtai came back, they also conducted corresponding tests, and the results they obtained were similar to those of Wangyue Island.

In the same way, the three of them also made the same decision, that is, to persist and encourage the practice of "Tong Dao Shen Wu Fa".

In this way, even after a year, they will not fall behind too much.
