Chapter 224 Cultivation?
Ning Xiaoxi sat by the pit, feeling the originally free spiritual energy around her being sucked away. Some of the spiritual energy was even sucked away by an even stronger suction force when it was only halfway gone.
Since entering Yuzhou, the concentration of spiritual energy has been much stronger than in the north. After arriving in Yandu, the spiritual energy has become even more vibrant. That vibrant feeling is somewhat like the weather in the west—fiery, unrestrained, and full of passion.
Then, one spiritual energy vortex after another formed, surging like rivers into the sea above the tents, no, like streams flowing into a great river. There simply wasn't enough spiritual energy for so many celestial masters to absorb.
"Aren't you going to cultivate?" Sui Lanting asked Ning Xiaoxi with a smile.
"If you don't work hard usually, how can you catch up in three days?" Ning Xiaoxi didn't understand. "I prefer to accumulate knowledge and experience gradually."
"Haha, Xiaoxi is right, we won't compete with them." Su Yu said and started digging a hole.
Su Yu took out three hardened stone eggs and gave one to each person.
Ning Xiaoxi happily took the Spirit Crystal Heart hammer and tapped it. The yellow clay was of very good quality, and it split open completely from the middle, revealing the lotus leaf package inside. She slowly peeled off the lotus leaf.
"Smells good!"
Ning Xiaoxi rubbed her fingers and burned them.
"Yes, it's definitely a signature product; the aroma alone makes it worth the price," Su Yu agreed.
Ning Xiaoxi picked up a small piece of chicken breast and put it in her mouth, making a "sizzling" sound. "Mmm, so delicious!"
All that could be heard after that was the sound of chewing loudly.
The aroma of food always resonated with them, causing the spiritual energy vortexes absorbed by several nearby tents to shift slightly.
"Boom!"
"boom!"
"Roar!"
Within the trial barrier, demons fought continuously, and some even began to rampage wildly, trying to break through the barrier, but to no avail.
Ning Xiaoxi built a sand pile, covered it with fur, and leaned against the sand pile to watch the colorful light emitted by various spells within the barrier, as if she were watching a fireworks display from the past.
In the afterglow of the setting sun, spiritual energy concentrated in the eyes, and one after another, colorful vortexes of spiritual energy were clearly visible.
From the perspective enhanced by spiritual energy, one can not only see the vortex of spiritual energy, but also the convergence of various elements. Yellow earth element, green wood element, blue water element, red fire element, not many gold elements, and even black elements. What is the white one?
Take a closer look. A small pinch of black mixed with a small pinch of white. The left hand holds the black—oh, it's actually yin energy, yin energy generated from a corpse, cold and dark. The right hand holds the white—the color of light? Yang energy born from sunlight, warm and radiant.
Sui Lanting and Su Yu could sense that Ning Xiaoxi was squinting and holding a spiritual element in each hand, so they became vigilant and focused intently on her every move.
As she saw her hands slowly begin to close, Sui Lanting quickly stepped forward and grasped Ning Xiaoxi's wrists. "Xiaoxi, you've had a long day. Why don't you take a rest?"
Ning Xiaoxi suddenly opened her eyes, the Yin-Yang Twin Wheels flashed by, a smile appeared on her lips, and she nodded, "Okay." Then she looked down at the two hands holding her wrists.
Sui Lanting chuckled awkwardly, let go of his hand, and sat back down.
Ning Xiaoxi exerted force with both hands, and the black and white elemental spheres entered the cave.
Nine Domains opened his palm, gathering two streams of elements into it. His five fingers slowly rotated, and the black and white elements began to spin. As his fingers accelerated, the rotation became faster and faster.
Ning Xiaoxi closed her eyes to watch Jiuyu's operation. The black and white Tai Chi pattern became clearer and clearer. The Yin and Yang energies maintained a distance that was neither close nor separate. They attracted each other and repelled each other, always maintaining a balance!
The Nine Realms, carrying the Yin and Yang energies, directly poured them into the spirit crystal sphere beside them.
"boom!"
The spiritual energy already saturated inside the spirit crystal sphere was impacted by an external force and exploded. However, the Nine Domains controlled the black and white energies to envelop the spirit crystal sphere, trapping the exploded spiritual energy inside and preventing it from overflowing.
Ning Xiaoxi suddenly sat up.
Ning Xiaoxi's actions startled Sui Lanting and Su Yu, who both jumped up and looked around warily.
The spiritual energy crystal violently mixed and fused with the black and white energies, eventually forming a new sphere, a Tai Chi sphere where black and white coexist.
Jiuyu tapped his finger on the Tai Chi ball, and it began to roll again. But the swirling energy emanating from it was terrifying. If this ball were to explode, wouldn't its power far surpass that of a bomb?
Ning Xiaoxi leaned back against the sand dune. Dusk fell, and stars began to twinkle in the dark blue sky.
Sui Lanting and Su Yu exchanged a glance, both seeing each other's helplessness. They wanted to ask the adults for more help from their companions, as they were afraid they couldn't keep an eye on things.
The Tai Chi ball looked very tempting. Xiaoxue wobbled out of Lingyuan's house, her eyes wide as she looked at the new toy.
Ning Xiaoxi pursed her lips. The five elements looked interesting; why not give it a try?
Feeling an itch in her fingers, Sui Lanting jumped over again and took Ning Xiaoxi's hand. "Xiaoxi, it's getting late. Why don't you go to sleep?"
Ning Xiaoxi's lingering desire was too obvious. Although he didn't know what she had just done, Sui Lanting still didn't want to take any risks. "The elder will be coming out to inspect the camp soon, let's get some rest!"
Elders making their rounds? Is that a rule? Ning Xiaoxi got up and dragged her fur into the tent. "Goodnight, Sister Sui."
Sui Lanting sat back down, but didn't dare to actually say goodnight. She looked at Su Yu helplessly and nodded.
Su Yu quickly took out the jade token and reported to the adults.
Ning Xiaoxi checked that there were no gaps in the tent, then added four defensive talismans, four stabilizing talismans, and two blocking talismans to the tent, and stopped only when there was no more space to draw talismans.
As spiritual energy flowed in, the tent became a small, enclosed space.
Take out a spirit crystal brick, cut it into five equal pieces, and place them in front of you. Focus your spiritual energy into your eyes again, grab the yellow earth element and throw it into one of the spirit crystal bricks. The earth element is relatively mild and not very aggressive, so it blends well with the spiritual energy in the spirit crystal brick. Soon, a small piece of the yellowish-brown spirit crystal brick is fully fused.
Okay, let's do it this way.
Water and wood elements are easy to control; elements that aren't aggressive are easy to manipulate.
Ning Xiaoxi clutched the gold element, staring at the fragments before her, and stubbornly continued adding more. Each piece was sliced into pieces upon contact, shattered into dust upon contact. She turned and picked up the earthen-yellow spirit crystal brick, adding the gold element little by little.
Hehe, it's done! The mud bricks have a sharp edge now. Shall we add a little more and see? Let's give it a try.
"Snap!" After a short while, the mud brick was gone.
Let's start over.
As the night passed, Ning Xiaoxi kept trying, failing, trying again, and failing again.
By dawn, she had obtained a total of five earth-metal element bricks, four wood-metal element bricks, six earth-wood-water element bricks, one gold brick, and one fire brick.
