Wuliang Immortal Clan

Chapter 15 Golden Beetle

"Minglang, how is your cultivation of the technique going?"

Upon his return to Wuliang Mountain, the clan chief summoned him immediately.

The clan chief, whose old wounds had been completely healed, was in excellent spirits and even looked several years younger.

He was sitting cross-legged on the stone bench, waving at him with a big smile.

"I'm already preparing to switch to the Green Wood Dragon Soaring Technique, and I've already grasped most of the essential parts of the technique."

Upon hearing this, the clan chief looked at him with a face full of surprise.

The Azure Dragon Soaring Technique was obtained by him from the Azure Nether Sect, which was said to be a fragment that the Azure Nether Sect had received by chance.

However, it is enough to cultivate to the Foundation Establishment Realm. This technique contains all five elements, and at the same time focuses on wood-type spiritual power. It is a rare and superior cultivation technique.

He paid a considerable price to obtain it. He had already read it once beforehand, and in his opinion, this set of techniques for Qi Refining Realm cultivators was quite obscure and difficult to understand.

However, Xu Yuanlang explained that he understood most of it. The smile on his face disappeared, and his brows furrowed. Did this kid even understand? Thinking of this, he asked in return.

"The Azure Dragon Soaring Technique contains all five elements, but the wood element is unique. Why is that?"

"The five elements are complete and should naturally complement and restrain each other, like water and milk in harmony. However, they control the changes of heaven and earth, representing birth, aging, sickness, and death. The cultivation method is to take advantage of these changes."

Although the Green Wood Dragon Skill is an incomplete work, reading it in its entirety is quite remarkable.

It draws from heaven and earth, from the universe, from life and death, from the past and the present.

The technique is based on the Azure Wood Dragon, drawing upon the energy of spring wood. Spring wood is abundant, allowing mountains to produce vegetation, breathe in and exhale clouds and mist, and conceal dragons, spirits, and all living things…”

The clan chief initially scratched his chin nonchalantly, but soon he stopped.

In the end, his mouth was so wide open that an egg could fit inside, and he only stopped when Xu Yuanlang said he was a little thirsty.

"Chief, is there any water?"

The clan leader's furrowed brows instantly relaxed. He took out a pot of spiritual tea, poured a cup, and then personally handed it to him.

"Chief, I can do it myself, there's no need for you!"

Xu Yuanlang happily accepted it, then waved his hand sheepishly.

"Don't worry about it! The tribespeople say you're incredibly wise, and you truly are extraordinary. I'm impressed."

"You flatter me, Chieftain. I only have some clever tricks up my sleeve."

"Intelligence has no limit."

After speaking, the clan leader clapped his hands with a jade slip, preparing to test him one last time, and asked.

"Since mountains can harbor dragons, where do you plan to cultivate the Azure Dragon Soaring Technique? Wuliang Mountain has a second-tier spiritual vein, so it should be quite suitable, right?"

"No!"

Without saying a word, Xu Yuanlang immediately shook his head and said, seeing the doubt on the clan leader's face, he had no choice but to speak quickly.

"Earth produces wood, but Wuliang Mountain is barren and a place of swift death. Although it is earth, according to my estimation, it should actually be metal."

Forget about clouds and mist rising from Wuliang Mountain; it's like a giant iron nail firmly embedded in the earth, making it impossible to cultivate the Azure Dragon Soaring Technique.

The clan chief smiled imperceptibly, it seemed this kid really understood.

"So, where do you plan to cultivate?"

"I plan to cultivate on Mount Qinglong!"

"Qinglong Mountain?"

The clan leader nodded secretly. There was a first-grade high-quality spiritual vein in that place, and the entire mountain was lush and verdant.

What's even more remarkable is that several hot streams flow underground, the mountain is evergreen all year round, and has an extremely strong wood-based aura. In addition, every three years, this mountain can condense a stream of wood energy.

"The mountain is named Azure Dragon, and you must also cultivate the Azure Dragon Soaring Technique. It is indeed the will of Heaven. A good omen, a good omen."

The clan leader was overjoyed and couldn't help but clap his hands vigorously. All cultivators are very superstitious, and when they encounter a good omen, their mood improves.

"By the way, Yuanlang, you brought back the thick hide and horn of the stone-armored rhinoceros last time, saying you wanted to forge a magical artifact. I had my people forge it."

Here, you give it a try.

The clan chief took out an ancient-looking, exquisite inner armor from his storage bag. He looked it over, a slight headache on his face.

"Chief, this thing is so inconvenient. You have to be completely wrapped up inside it."

The clan chief smiled as expected and handed it to him directly.

"Try it after you've refined it!"

He was skeptical, but he channeled his spiritual power deep into the inner armor. When his spiritual power could move freely within the inner armor, he considered it a successful refinement.

After being refined, the inner armor instantly transformed into a stream of light and flew into his body.

"Yuen Long!"

The clan chief suddenly spoke, and as he turned his head, he saw a flying sword piercing towards him like lightning.

He instinctively widened his eyes, but unexpectedly, just as the stone armor was about to hit him, he was suddenly covered by it.

"clang!"

He felt a weight on his chest as the flying sword flew back. He touched his chest in surprise, and the thick, uneven stone armor brought him an indescribable sense of security.

"You see, when you sense danger, the inner armor will automatically appear on your body to help you defend yourself."

Of course, you can also control the defense yourself, and the defense will increase as your spiritual energy is consumed.

Unfortunately, this inner armor is a genuine high-grade defensive magic artifact. Although you can refine it, it consumes a great deal of spiritual energy. Don't think that having this inner armor will make you invincible in the future.

The clan chief carefully explained the advantages and disadvantages of the inner armor, and he nodded excitedly.

"In addition, the horn of that stone-armored rhinoceros was refined into a Qi-breaking needle."

"Don't let its tiny size fool you; it's incredibly effective against spiritual energy shields. You should put it away."

Upon seeing the Qi-breaking needle gleaming with a cold light, Xu Yuanlang couldn't help but reveal a look of excitement.

"Do not refine this Qi-breaking needle for the time being."

This command puzzled him, and the clan chief patted him on the back in an annoyed manner.

"The Demon-Slaying Gourd is a high-grade defensive magic weapon. If I remember correctly, your natal magic weapon should be complete."

This Qi-breaking needle is also a high-grade magic weapon. If you refine it all, will your spiritual power be enough? It will only be a loss.

"One must reach at least the fifth level of Qi Refining before one can refine the Qi-Breaking Needle."

Seeing Xu Yuanlang's dejected expression, the clan chief thought for a moment and added another sentence.

"It will be yours sooner or later."

"yes!"

Xu Yuanlang hurriedly agreed, but as he turned to leave, the clan chief suddenly called out to him.

"Yuan Lang, I remember you're the Spirit Plant Master, right?"

"Yes, I learned the basics at school when I was little."

"Well then, since you're going to Qinglong Mountain, I happen to have something I need you to do."

The clan chief took out a task sheet from his storage bag and handed it to him.

"There are three acres of spirit fields on Qinglong Mountain, where first-grade fish, rice and rice are grown. However, a few days ago, golden beetles suddenly appeared in the spirit fields."

Uncle Sanada, who is stationed at Qinglong Mountain, is at a loss and strongly suggests sending a spirit plant cultivator to help. You happen to be one, so go and see what's going on.

If it cannot be resolved, send a message back immediately.

"yes!"
