Chapter 113 Ancient Immortal Family's Three Secret Techniques
When Xu Ning and the other two returned to Ningyu Pavilion, Beidou was still wrapped around Xu Ning's neck, clinging to him and refusing to get down.
"You've already become a laughing stock at Yuehai Pavilion, so hurry up and come down."
Ningguang watched as the two lovable clowns continued their entanglement, a hint of annoyance already creeping onto her face.
"No, unless you make Xu Ning return the knife to me!"
Beidou had just acquired a powerful weapon, which hadn't even been properly used before Xu Ning took it away, refusing to give up.
Seeing that Ningguang was about to get angry, Xu Ning quickly coaxed Beidou down.
"Come on, get down. I don't want your Black Rock Slashing Blade. I just want to refine it for you to make it more powerful."
Upon hearing this, Beidou asked with some skepticism, "Are you sure it's not because I got the Black Rock Slasher, but you're still wearing that broken glove, so you're envious and don't want me to use this new weapon?"
Xu Ning was stunned. Now that you've said that, what am I supposed to do if I really don't want to give it to you anymore?
Seeing his hesitation, Beidou shouted, "I knew it!"
With a sudden burst of strength, he gripped Xu Ning so tightly that she couldn't even breathe.
Xu Ning waved his hands frantically, his eyes wide, signaling Ning Guang to hurry and save him; the little girl's strength was no joke.
Ningguang sighed, walked behind Xu Ning, reached under Beidou's armpits and grabbed him twice, pulling Beidou off Xu Ning.
Xu Ning turned around and flicked Bei Dou on the head, "You have no idea how strong you are now, you almost killed me!"
Xu Ning took out the Black Rock Slashing Blade from his spatial storage, and also took out some fine-forging magic ore and fine-forging good ore that he had accumulated from the treasure chests he had opened before.
"These special minerals are often found in the places where ancient demons and gods fought. Because the dense elemental power preserves the memories of those battles in these mineral ingots, fusing them into weapons can enhance the weapons' spirituality."
"If you come across these things in the future, Ningguang, be sure to collect as many as possible and preserve them as strategic resources."
Ningguang picked up a few pieces with a focused expression, memorized their appearance, and then, following Xu Ning's instructions, fused a few pieces into the Black Rock Slashing Blade.
As Xu Ning poured all the refined magic ore into the Black Rock Cleaver, Ning Guang was surprised to see that the entire blade was faintly glowing, and the Li Huo totem on the hilt flickered on and off, as if the blade was gradually breathing.
Beidou's eyes lit up, and he hurriedly urged Xu Ning to incorporate all the refined magic ore into it.
However, after borrowing only a dozen or so coins, he was unable to borrow any more.
Xu Ning tossed aside the ore ingot in his hand, picked up the Black Rock Slashing Blade, and sighed, "This is the best I can refine it to. If I want to go any further, I'll have to use some immortal techniques."
Undeterred, Beidou poked the sword blade twice more with a piece of demonic ore. Seeing no effect, he looked up and asked, "What kind of immortal technique can enhance its power again?"
Seeing that Ningguang was also very interested in listening, Xu Ning gestured to Beidou to bring three wine bowls.
After the three poured wine, Xu Ning finally spoke up: "It is said that in addition to the supernatural power of the Three Eyes and Five Manifestations that allows the immortals of Liyue to manipulate the elemental forces of the mortal world, they also possess three unique secret techniques passed down from ancient times."
"These are the arts of alchemy, the arts of talismans, and the arts of external vision."
Beidou tilted his head and thought for a moment, "The art of talismans, is it the talisman that Chongyun used?"
Xu Ning nodded, "That's pretty much it. The art of talismans is essentially the way immortals use elemental power, leaving symbols on talisman paper or stone carvings. Although it's not as powerful as a complete immortal technique, it's simple to use and can be given to others."
"As for the art of creating external landscapes, you've all seen it. It's how immortals use their mental images to refine the elemental forces of the mortal world and create the cosmic landscapes they desire. The Dust Song Pot is an example of this, as is the Dust Concealment Gourd."
Ningguang and Beidou both turned their attention to the Dust Concealment Gourd on the table.
Indeed, only the creations of immortals could possess so many wondrous aspects!
"The last one is the art of alchemy."
Xu Ning took a sip of wine and said, "It is said that immortals can use rare and precious materials, combined with immortal furnaces and cauldrons, forbidden techniques and secret incantations, to refine golden pills a hundred times. One pill can make one an immortal."
"However, most of it is just hearsay. It's hard to say whether it will make you an immortal, but it's probably certain that you'll become a ghost."
"I have heard of some methods that use the Golden Core to enhance the spirituality of weapons."
Xu Ning pointed at the Black Rock Blade on the table and said to Beidou, "My original intention was to take it to Jueyun Realm to find a way to further improve it before returning it to you. Who knew you would be so petty, saying that I was jealous..."
Beidou chuckled and quickly filled Xu Ning's wine gourd, then obediently stood behind him and massaged his shoulders.
Xu Ning grimaced as he "enjoyed" Beidou's massage. The girl's grip strength had recently become a bit out of control; she should probably practice it properly.
Ningguang didn't tolerate Xu Ning in the Qunyu Pavilion. She dragged Beidou into her room and waved for Xu Ning to go find his own room to sleep. Suddenly, she asked with a smile, "Tell me the truth, when you saw Beidou get such a good weapon, weren't you jealous?"
Xu Ning chuckled and admitted frankly, "There is some, but what I'm most worried about is that once she gets this weapon, she won't be able to resist going to Hai Shan to test it out. While I'm away, please keep an eye on her."
Ningguang nodded thoughtfully in agreement.
The next morning, Xu Ning headed to Wanmin Hall to replenish the food supplies in the cave before setting off.
However, as soon as Xu Ning arrived at the entrance of Wanmintang, he saw Old Master Hu, dressed in black, sitting imposingly at the entrance of Wanmintang.
Master Mao and his daughter exchanged glances and waved their hands, signaling Xu Ning to run away quickly.
Xu Ning turned and ran away without hesitation.
How much time has passed?
Why does the Hu family deal with so many dead people? They're like wandering spirits, why don't they disperse?
Xu Ning seemed to hear Old Master Hu shouting something about it not being true, but who dared to stop? The old man's marksmanship was indeed almost at its peak, and even he himself didn't dare to say how long he could hold out.
However, in his haste to run, a small dark figure suddenly darted out from the street corner and grabbed him around the waist, startling Xu Ning.
"Hehe, I've got you!"
A pair of smiling plum blossom eyes stared at Xu Ning, a malicious smile on their faces.
Xu Ning shook his head twice but couldn't shake off the little walnut, so he resigned himself to his fate and stood still.
Old Master Hu strolled over from behind at a leisurely pace. "You lad, you've got a knack for running!"
Xu Ning straightened his back and said righteously, "It's my bad luck to have fallen into your hands today, but let's make it clear first, don't hit someone in the face!"
Old Master Hu sneered: "You can't hit someone in the face? Does that mean you can just spank their ass?"
Hu Tao, who was hanging from Xu Ning's waist, blushed and said, "Grandpa, didn't we say we wouldn't talk about it anymore!"
