Seeing this, Zhang Xiaohua scanned it with his Divine Sense. How could he not know that it was a Primordial Stone?
Qin Shiyue was surprised and a little surprised. She took out a similar stone from her arms. Zhang Xiaohua scanned it with his Divine Sense and knew that it was one of the three Primordial Stones used for the auspicious three treasures in Xinji Town. Qin Shiyue picked up the two Primordial Stones and compared them, but she couldn't see any difference. Even if she injected Genuine Qi into it, there was no reaction. She sighed and put the Primordial Stone back into the big box.
She looked at the Primordial Stone in her hand and threw it into the box.
Zhang Xiaohua had already scanned it with his Divine Sense. The Primordial Stone contained a lot of Primordial Qi. It was estimated that there was still half of it left. It was a lot more than the Primordial Stone in Qin Shiyue's hand. However, compared with the small one in Zhang Xiaohua's hand, it was still a lot worse.
Qin Shiyue stood and thought for a moment. She took out another Primordial Stone and three scarlet flags from her arms. She was a little reluctant to part with them. She weighed them in her hand and threw them into the box. The Hierarch had already known about her battle in Xinji Town. The Hierarch must want these Immortal Dao things. Instead of waiting for the Hierarch to ask, it was better to take the initiative to offer them.
Although Zhang Xiaohua was far away, he could see more clearly than Qin Shiyue. There were indeed a lot of things in the box. He didn't use his Divine Sense to observe them. He just immersed his Divine Sense into a few Jade Slips on the surface. There was no text. Was there no Primordial Qi in these Jade Slips?
Then, he found a Jade Slip with a little stronger fluctuation. Sure enough, there were some incomplete ancient characters in this Jade Slip. Even if there were, they were badly damaged and couldn't be understood. Zhang Xiaohua couldn't help shaking his head. The Immortal Dao had been annihilated for tens of thousands of years. How many things had disappeared in the long river of history? This box of Jade Slips could only be used. It was really a pity.
However, who was the Hierarch of the Tenryū Sect? He must have collected a lot of Jade Slips. Even if only ten percent of them could be used, it was still a quite amazing number. However, could the Hierarch of the Tenryū Sect use his Divine Sense like him?
Otherwise, how could he find what he needed from these thousands of jade artifacts?
Zhang Xiaohua was a little curious and wanted to see this cult leader. Of course, he quickly dispelled this terrible idea. Seeing how Qin Shiyue killed people like killing ants, this cult leader might be a fiend. It was impossible for him to tell the secret of the purse, so he couldn't take out the cauldron. It was better to avoid such troublesome matters. Anyway, if he were to face Qin Shiyue now, he might not necessarily lose. When he came back from the South Sea, he would find a chance to escape.
Thinking of escaping, Zhang Xiaohua also remembers the Earth Elemental Technique. She learned a lot in the morning. She learned how to drive objects and mastered the sword art. Why not strike while the iron is hot and comprehend the Earth Elemental Technique?
Perhaps there would be an unexpected gain as well.
Zhang Xiaohua closed her eyes, released her Divine Sense, and began to practice the Earth Elemental Technique. The Earth Elemental Technique's Incantation was not as subtle as driving objects. If one mistake was made, she would not succeed. Zhang Xiaohua learned the first Earth Elemental Technique by chance. She practiced the second Earth Elemental Technique for a long time without success.
Actually, it made sense when he thought about it. The Dao of Controlling Objects was only the most basic ability. Zhang Xiaohua had comprehended the first technique of Earth Escape a long time ago, so when he turned around and cultivated the most basic technique, it would naturally be extremely simple.
Since she could drive the small sword, Zhang Xiaohua had practiced the sword art countless times. She had already known it well. Now she just changed it from her hands to her Divine Sense. It was naturally easy for Zhang Xiaohua to use the new driving method. So many years of accumulation and so many opportunities were exchanged for her mastery of the flying sword in the morning. The Earth Elemental Technique was superior to the Levitation Technique. How could Zhang Xiaohua, who had no one to guide her, easily master it?
After several attempts, she did not know how many times she failed. In the end, she still did not succeed. However, after repeatedly guiding the vital qi, Zhang Xiaohua was now incomparably proficient in the technique of guiding vital qi into her body. As long as it was within her Divine Sense, her thoughts would all be guided into her body. It was no longer like before, where she had to adjust her breathing and use her perception to guide it. It could not be said that it was the byproduct of an afternoon of hard work.
The sky gradually darkened, and the clear sky began to gradually fill with dark clouds. The wind and waves were also getting stronger. Zhang Xiaohua stopped cultivating, but did not go out to eat. He only let the sailor bring in the food to fill his stomach. In fact, he had recently realized that ever since he could guide vital qi into his body, especially from the vital stones, his need for food had clearly decreased. If it was not for his mother's delicious food, or the rare banquet in the Southern Sea Dragon Palace, he would usually eat some simple fruits and vegetables and drink some water to satisfy his hunger.
After the meal, the dark clouds had already covered the sky. Before long, bean-sized raindrops fell, accompanied by a strong sea breeze. Zhang Xiaohua originally wanted to see the moonlit rainy scene, but the whistling wind and waves shattered his extravagant hope. Even though the windows and doors were tightly shut, he could still hear the sound of the raindrops and the sound of the strong wind and waves crashing against the giant boat. The giant boat swayed greatly with the wind and waves. Zhang Xiaohua did not light up the cabin. He only released his Divine Sense, but only wrapped it around the giant boat. Although there was only wind and rain and no lightning, Zhang Xiaohua did not dare to be careless in this unpredictable sea.
In the cabin on the first floor, the Flood Dragon King of the Three Seas and the Gang Leader of the Seven Waters were used to such storms, so they were not surprised. However, Qin Shiyue and Yingfei were different. At this time, they were no longer as carefree as before. Their bodies swayed left and right with the giant boat. Soon, they could not stand it and kept vomiting. The Flood Dragon King's face was bitter, but there was no good way. This kind of seasickness happened from time to time, and it had nothing to do with the level of martial arts. Perhaps they would get used to vomiting after a while.
Seeing this, Zhang Xiaohua laughed in the dark cabin. He had always seen Qin Shiyue's cool face, but now he saw her embarrassed appearance. How could he not be happy?
Although it was the first time for Zhang Xiaohua to go out to sea and see such strong winds and waves, she had used the Levitation Skill at the beginning to offset the swaying slightly. Now when she sat down, she did not feel too dizzy. She just felt a little uncomfortable.
Seeing that it was getting late, Zhang Xiaohua did not release her Divine Sense out of her body. She held two small Primordial Stones in her hand and concentrated on absorbing them. Since she entered the third level of Qi Refining, the speed of absorbing Primordial Qi had increased several times, and the tendons and meridians in her body could hold more Genuine Qi. Moreover, the Genuine Qi in her tendons and meridians was purer. Although the quantity was less than before, the quality seemed to have improved.
Feeling that the Primordial Qi absorbed from the Primordial Stones was refined by her tendons and meridians, Zhang Xiaohua could not help but shake her head. The process of cultivation was really slow. If she absorbed Primordial Qi like this, she did not know when she could reach the fourth level. One year?
Two years?
As for the later levels, they were even more difficult than the previous ones. He wondered if he would only be able to reach the peak when his hair turned gray!
Right, what would happen after she reached the peak?
Would there be other things after that?
Zhang Xiaohua was looking forward to it.
Nothing happened that night. In the early hours of the second day, Zhang Xiaohua opened her eyes and looked at the dark cabin. She listened outside and then released her Divine Sense. Outside, the wind and waves were still the same. The rain was already light, but the sky was still covered with a layer of dark clouds. On the first floor of the cabin, Qin Shiyue and the others were all adjusting their breathing and condensing their Genuine Qi. Although this kind of wind and waves was not suitable for cultivating Inner Qi, these people were all people with profound Inner Qi. They did not seek any breakthroughs and only wanted to nourish their Genuine Qi. Naturally, there was nothing wrong with it. Zhang Xiaohua's Divine Sense swept over Qin Shiyue. She felt that he was much better than last night. Although his face was pale, he did not vomit.
Xu Jiaotong was sleeping peacefully. She was not awakened by the bumpy wind and waves. Presumably, she had already adapted to this environment. Moreover, looking at her smiling face, she must have had some sweet dreams.
Zhang Xiaohua got up and did not light the lamp. She only opened the window and let the roaring sea breeze blow in. Then, she shook her spirit and practiced the Fist of the North Star dozens of times. Only when she finished nine times did she stop. At this time, the sky had already turned white. Behind the dark clouds, a few rays of sunlight could be seen. Even in the distant sky, there were a few pillars of light shooting to the sea. It looked very spectacular.
On this cloudy day, the rain was intermittent. Qin Shiyue occasionally walked on the deck. Everyone knew that he was seasick, so they did not arrange a banquet. They all ate in their own cabins. Only Xu Jiaotong was very concerned about Qin Shiyue. She stayed by his side all the time. From time to time, she would talk about local customs and interesting things, which made Qin Shiyue laugh from time to time. He actually forgot about his seasickness.
This situation made Zhang Xiaohua curse again. Public morals were degenerating day by day.
In addition to familiarizing himself with the sword art, Zhang Xiaohua also comprehended the Earth Escape Technique. Under Zhang Xiaohua's painstaking efforts, the second Earth Escape Technique also made some progress. He could slightly stimulate the ball of Zhen Qi and change its shape. However, if it turned into a ball of thin film to cover the whole body as shown in the Earth Escape Technique, it was still too far away.
However, Zhang Xiaohua was not in a hurry. If the first time was not enough, he would do it twice. If the second time was still not enough, he would do it three times. He was not a smart person since he was a child. He had done many things like making up for his stupidity with diligence.
After dinner, Zhang Xiaohua still did not go out. He wanted to walk on the deck, but when he thought about it, it was wet and slippery. It was better to admire the scenery on the second floor. He also did not understand why Qin Shiyue and the others lived on the first floor when the scenery on the second floor was so good.
It was late at night, and the rain was even heavier. There were faint thunderstorms in the clouds. Zhang Xiaohua did not dare to release his Divine Sense out of his body. He could only sit cross-legged, holding two vitality stones in his hands, and absorb the Zhen Qi.
Suddenly, Zhang Xiaohua's heart skipped a beat. He seemed to be a little alert. He suddenly opened his eyes, and then closed them again. He released his Divine Sense and scanned the entire giant ship. He did not feel anything unusual. He then extended his Divine Sense to the entire sea. The entire sea was turbulent, but there was nothing unusual. He was about to withdraw his Divine Sense when a ship coincidentally broke into his Divine Sense.
