Chapter 706: Chapter 218: Wartime Preparations_2
Intense and exhilarating!
The only downside is that in this situation, the Spirit Stone Ball simply cannot hold out for long and quickly gets used up.
“Golden Core, only a Golden Core can support the Iron Han Armor now!”
Ning Zhuo had already contacted the Three Generals Camp and sent a letter to Zhao Xi. While waiting for a response, the Golden Core, and possibly the Nascent Soul, he was using the Fetal Breathing Spirit Boat to cultivate his physical body.
The stronger his physical body, the greater the military art’s blessing he could receive.
The benefits are evident, making Ning Zhuo unable to stop!
Besides, he also improved and designed spells related to the Five Elements and practiced them extensively.
Fire Separation Cleansing Technique!
This spell ignites wounds, burning away all contaminations, and is particularly effective against Soul Path and Poison Cultivator methods.
Divine Flame of Healing!
Once this spell is cast, it can ignite flames within the Divine Sea. The flames target and burn harmful thoughts while preserving useful ones.
This measure was conceived by Ning Zhuo after suffering greatly from Buddha Thoughts.
Rock Base Soul Suppressing Incantation!
Upon casting it, the cultivator can turn part of their flesh into rock, resisting pain and suppressing the soul, thus defending against soul-related injuries.
Ning Zhuo developed this spell after enduring the Frost Soul Gaze divine skill from Tian Shuang, realizing his soul defense was lacking.
He designed this spell focusing on power, but it also has significant drawbacks.
Using this spell would drastically reduce his speed.
Pure Land Restoration Technique!
This spell requires the treasure from the Western Pure Land.
Ning Zhuo still had some reserves.
Using this spell, Ning Zhuo could regenerate severed limbs, with additional profound purification abilities. The regenerated limbs would be pristine and untainted.
Additionally, Ning Zhuo optimized the Flame Cloak Technique and devised a three-layered Fire Separation Shield.
He also designed Earth Element spells like Thick Earth Armor and Rock Plate Shield.
He had suffered significantly in previous deadly battles, and this time he compensated for the weaknesses in defense and healing within the Five Elements Magic.
The deeper one’s realm in the Five Elements, the more unrestrained one can be!
From these spells, it’s evident that Ning Zhuo, to save energy and time, only designed Earth Element and Fire Element spells.
This choice was made because he currently possessed only the Earth Element Spleen Temple and the Fire Element Heart Temple. As long as his Divine Sense focused on the temples, he could finely control Earth Element and Fire Element spells, an unexpected benefit from his previous life-and-death struggles.
Therefore, compensating for the remaining three elements became Ning Zhuo’s cultivation goal.
When parting ways with Lin Bufan, Ning Zhuo had already discussed and revised their previous cooperation, asking Lin Bufan to bring him his Ten-Thousand-Year-Old Water Essence.
Apart from practicing these spells, Ning Zhuo squeezed out some time to design a flying mechanical puppet.
Due to the tight schedule, Ning Zhuo had to choose the most practical solution for implementation.
Based on the biological structure of the Golden Swallow, he created the Mechanical Golden Swallow. This undoubtedly saved him a lot of energy and time during the design phase.
Then he improved the Mechanical Golden Swallow to make its control method more akin to the Silent Thunderbird.
The Mechanical Silent Thunderbird was a typical mechanism that Ning Zhuo frequently used while in Fire Persimmon Immortal City. More accurately, he used it in the guise of the Youthful Guest, where the Silent Thunderbird was one of his routine offensive methods.
Thus, Ning Zhuo was very familiar with its operation.
After improvement, the Mechanical Golden Swallow required minimal practice, making it easy for Ning Zhuo to handle.
“With the Mechanical Platform, I can mass-produce the Mechanical Golden Swallow.”
“But to make them effective, they need to form a Battle Formation.”
“If only my Military School realm were as profound as my Five Elements realm, that would be perfect.”
Ning Zhuo held in his hand the “Gao Sheng’s Legacy” and the General’s Helmet, but he had not yet fully comprehended the Heroic Return Skill of the military art. Hence, he could not use the dual treasures to achieve another level of insight into military art.
However, through these recent intense battles, his understanding of this military art was deepening.
This is the normal cultivation speed.
Ning Zhuo’s progress in the Five Elements realm was an exception.
Ning Zhuo was racing against time.
The battle with the Heaven and Earth Ghosts accelerated his growth and pushed the entire situation forward significantly.
“As I expected, a great battle is about to unfold.”
“I hope this time, I can take action against the Six Cave Sect!”
Ning Zhuo had many concerns in his heart.
Given the current situation, this could very well be his last chance on the Thousand Peak Forest battlefield.
The longer it drags on, the more likely the Heaven and Earth Ghosts will return.
It would be best if he could achieve his goals while the Heaven and Earth Ghosts return and then quickly move on!
After all, any detection and tracking methods have distance limitations.
According to the information left by Tian Shuang, the Soul Devouring Sect knew Ning Zhuo’s location because Ning Zhuo had disclosed his identity in the Liangzhu Country, and after several turns, they found out.
When Tian Shuang and Earth Ash, carrying Qi Bai’s relics, arrived within the Thousand Peak Forest, they began tracking.
Thousand Peak Forest, on a certain peak.
Boom, boom, boom…
Tian Shuang flew high in the sky, constantly bombing Earth Ash, causing ice shards to fly and thunder to roar.
Earth Ash felt extreme bitterness: “What’s going on here!”
He didn’t dare to burrow deep underground, to prevent Tian Shuang from losing him and going back to Ning Zhuo, or committing suicide due to guilt.
Therefore, Earth Ash had to keep Tian Shuang occupied, dragging him to remote areas to prevent other cultivators from harboring any ill intentions.
