The fastest update of Immortal Pills for you, and poison belongs to me! Latest chapter!

After Huang Jianyuan finished speaking, he observed the expression on Lu Jing's face, only to see that the latter still looked dazed. Reading М

Okay, it seems this guy really doesn't know.

So Huang Jianyuan could only continue to explain, "Mountain and River Severance is a very powerful spell. Cultivating it to the highest level…"

"Can it sever mountains and rivers?"

"No."

"… … … …"

"No spell has that kind of power," Huang Jianyuan said. "We are cultivators, not gods. We can't move mountains and fill seas with a wave of our hands."

"Then the name…"

"Why do you have so many questions?" Huang Jianyuan rarely became angry. "The predecessor who invented this spell called it this name. Maybe it was because it sounded good, or maybe it was easy to say, or maybe it was just because he liked it. As descendants, we just need to listen."

Lu Jing quickly nodded, with an expression of being taught.

Huang Jianyuan's expression softened, and he continued, "Although Mountain and River Severance cannot sever mountains and rivers, if you cultivate it to a profound level, you can still sever a giant rock or even split a small section of a mountain, not to mention flesh and blood."

"So powerful?!" Lu Jing's spirit was also shaken when he heard this.

Indeed, as Huang Jianyuan said, although there are cultivators in this world, it is different from the cultivation world depicted in the Xianxia novels Lu Jing had read before. There are no Golden Core cultivators who can kill tens of thousands with one, nor are there Nascent Soul old monsters who can destroy a country with a single hand.

Everyone cultivates spells, so they must be better at fighting than ordinary people, but they are not so good at fighting to that extent.

So, severing a giant rock or splitting off a small section of a mountain can indeed be called a supreme supernatural power among cultivators. Huang Jianyuan does have the capital to be proud.

And this time Lu Jing's reaction finally met Huang Jianyuan's expectations. He nodded with satisfaction, "But this kind of spell is very difficult to cultivate, especially since I heard Professor Zheng and the others say that you don't seem to have started cultivating spells yet."

"Uh, I've been quite busy recently…"

"But if you don't practice those low-level spells, it will be difficult to cultivate high-level spells, especially top-notch spells like Mountain and River Severance, so I gave you a talisman."

"That talisman records my Mountain and River Severance move. As long as you inject secret force into it, you can activate Mountain and River Severance. Once a day, you can use that talisman to defend against enemies, and you can also use each spellcasting to understand and learn the secrets of Mountain and River Severance."

"But I estimate that with your secret force, you will have to rest for ten and a half months after using it once. How about this, I'll give you another bottle of pills to speed up the recovery of your secret force," Huang Jianyuan said generously.

However, Lu Jing said, "Ah, this… this is not necessary, right? I have already received such a great gift from you, how can I let you spend more money."

Lu Jing wasn't just making excuses. He is no longer a cultivation newbie, and he knows how precious such a talisman is.

First of all, Mountain and River Severance is a top-level spell, and the difficulty of making it into a talisman is very great, no less than running to the wild to dig up a thousand-year-old ginseng.

Tonight, Lu Jing prevented Han Shan Ke from leaving the academy, which is indeed a great achievement, but it is not to that extent.

Someone thought to himself that even if Huang Jianyuan really wanted to reward him, rewarding him with valuable cultivation materials such as Tianyi Shengshui would be about the same. He never thought that the other party would give him a talisman treasure.

The meaning of choosing a disciple and teaching skills is even stronger. Tonight's matter seems to be just an excuse.

It's not that Lu Jing doesn't know that Huang Jianyuan values him very much. From the first day he entered the academy, he seemed to like him very much. Even if it was later rumored that his secret force affinity was very poor and he couldn't cultivate at all, Huang Jianyuan didn't give up on him like others.

Instead, he actively entrusted Wu Han to send him to Jinghu Valley with Chi and others to find those paper figures for help.

Now that Lu Jing has completed foundation building and started cultivation, it seems reasonable for Huang Jianyuan to pass on his skills to him.

But Lu Jing has also inquired that generally speaking, this kind of thing happens in the second or third year.

Because everyone generally defaults that the first year of newcomers entering the academy is to lay the foundation and choose a path that suits them. At this time, not much can be seen. After the direction is chosen in the second and third years, and it is almost finalized, everyone can more easily see who is suitable for cultivating what.

At this time, choosing someone to pass on skills is a natural thing for both parties, but Huang Jianyuan is now passing on Mountain and River Severance to him, which seems a bit early.

Huang Jianyuan himself didn't think so, and waved his hand directly, interrupting Lu Jing's words, "I'll let you take it, so just take it. It's more important to improve your strength now than anything else."

"Why?" Lu Jing was a little surprised when he heard this.

Although he also knows that it has not been peaceful outside recently, shouldn't this kind of thing be a headache for Guo Shouhuai, the Shao Jian of the Sitianjian, and those supervisors in the office? It has nothing to do with newcomers like them who have just entered the academy and are still learning.

The small competition doesn't count. It will be the second year at the earliest when they start to have real contact with cases related to strange objects, and independent handling of cases will be after passing the assessment and becoming a supervisor. Counting it this way, it's still early.

However, Huang Jianyuan didn't explain much, but just said, "I'll let you practice, so just practice. Don't ask so many questions. You will naturally know when the time comes.

"In addition, don't just cultivate things related to secret force. Don't put down your martial arts either. You and Yan Yun entered the Tianji List at a young age. This martial arts talent is rare, so don't waste it."

At this time, Lu Jing couldn't say anything else except nod and say yes.

Afterwards, Huang Jianyuan encouraged him a few more words, pointed out some of the cultivation techniques of Mountain and River Severance, and then waved him to leave.

Lu Jing walked back alone, digesting the series of events that happened today. When he left Jinghu Valley and walked to his small courtyard, he slapped his head, but finally remembered what he had vaguely felt was being ignored before.

Before he left, he seemed to have asked Chen Hanqing to help him work in the ginseng field.

He originally thought he could come back in a day or two, but he was delayed by the murder in Wenjia Village, and after he came back, he went to Jinghu Valley to find Han Shan Ke as soon as possible. Chen Hanqing hadn't told him about it all the time.

Well, but counting it, that guy should have finished digging ginseng long ago, right? If he couldn't find him, he should be resting first, right?

Lu Jing thought so.
