Chapter 5

Gently stroking, Qin Ning closed the eyes of the deceased, who had been staring wide-eyed, and quietly gathered the bodies of these clan members.

After burying the bodies of his clan members, Qin Ning had many speculations about the situation of his race. What had happened to the Blue Star Clan?

The long-lasting Blue Star Clan had become like this. What had happened?

Sighing, Qin Ning turned and flew back the way he came.

This place was completely an enemy-occupied area, and he could encounter enemies at any time.

Reflecting on today's battle, Qin Ning was also somewhat fearful.

In fact, he was still far from the cultivation level of a Foundation Establishment expert. The reason he could kill the opponent in one move was due to the talisman array.

When he checked his collection, Qin Ning felt bitter. In the previous battle, he had used all his jade talismans to attack. Now, even if a Ninth Stage Qi Cultivation practitioner came, he might not be able to defeat them.

Initially, when he reached the Fifth Stage of Qi Cultivation, he had the combat power of a Seventh Stage Qi Cultivation practitioner. After breaking through to the Sixth Stage of Qi Cultivation, Qin Ning found that his combat power could reach the early Ninth Stage of Qi Cultivation. Against a Ninth Stage Qi Cultivation practitioner, there was still a gap.

After flying for a while, Qin Ning stopped and found a cave to enter.

Finding a place to sit in meditation, Qin Ning began to think about his situation. Given his current situation, if he encountered an opponent, his methods were too单一. This was certainly not acceptable.

What he could do now was to review the consciousness he had obtained.

Hidden Killing Technique!

Spirit Refinement Technique!

Energy Absorption Technique!

When he found these three techniques, Qin Ning's face showed a smile. For him, these three techniques were quite good, although not profound, they were effective in enhancing his survival capabilities.

After carefully examining these three techniques, Qin Ning was pleasantly surprised to find that he had no difficulty in cultivating them.

His body was already filled with Xirang, a very special way of reshaping.

The Spirit Refinement Technique was the highest level of body refinement technique.

This technique had a basic requirement, which was to incorporate a large amount of Xirang into the body. Additionally, the cultivator must be below the Foundation Establishment stage.

It could be cultivated all the way to the Nascent Soul stage, and after the Nascent Soul stage, there was another second-level technique.

At the first level of body refinement, it was equivalent to the First Stage of Qi Cultivation, which could concentrate the body's strength into a small area. When attacked, that area could form a defensive shield not weaker than a Fifth Stage shield. If it reached the third level, a Foundation Establishment expert's attack would not cause any harm, and it could even resist a Golden Core expert's attack.

After understanding the Spirit Refinement Technique, Qin Ning felt that this technique was tailor-made for his current situation. If he could resist a Foundation Establishment expert's attack, his survival space would be greatly increased.

The Energy Absorption Technique was also a technique tailored to his body condition. The acupoints in his body could already store energy, and if he cultivated the Energy Absorption Technique, his energy storage capacity would be greatly enhanced.

The Hidden Killing Technique was relatively weaker, but for those below the Foundation Establishment stage, it had a significant effect in ambush.

For Qin Ning, the Hidden Killing Technique was not difficult at all. He spent about an hour and was almost proficient in it.

What should he cultivate next?

Qin Ning thought for a moment and felt that the Energy Absorption Technique should be the first to cultivate. After carefully recalling the content of the Energy Absorption Technique, he fully devoted himself to its cultivation.

...

"Search! Dig up the ground to find the person!"

While Qin Ning was cultivating, several Foundation Establishment experts had already arrived at the battlefield where the intense battle had taken place.

Seeing that all their people had died there, the four Foundation Establishment experts were shocked.

Besides shock, there was also intense anger!

In the cultivation world, a Golden Core expert was the core of the army, and a Foundation Establishment expert was like a general on the battlefield. Each Foundation Establishment expert was an elite in the army. They never expected that a Foundation Establishment expert would die here.

Four powerful divine senses continuously scanned the area, and the faces of the four Foundation Establishment experts were filled with confusion.

"The Blue Star Army did not send many Foundation Establishment experts this time!"

A tall, one-horned Abyssal person said loudly.

"This time, our several races jointly attacked the Blue Star people. They were fighting on all fronts and could not possibly send several Foundation Establishment experts to rescue some captives!"

"From the battle situation here, it would be impossible to kill our twenty people without two Foundation Establishment experts. You are right; they could not have sent two Foundation Establishment experts."

"Their Foundation Establishment experts are all under surveillance and could not be mobilized!"

After analyzing for a while, the faces of the four people were even more confused.

They seemed to be very familiar with the situation of the Blue Star Clan.

"If the other side suddenly had several more Foundation Establishment experts, the entire battle situation would change dramatically!" the leader said solemnly.

After saying this, the four people searched in four directions again.

For them, this was a devastating attack on the Blue Star people. Several races had been continuously attacking, and they believed that the Blue Star people could not withstand such an attack.

At this critical moment to strike the Blue Star Clan, no unexpected events could be allowed.

...

At the same time, in a Blue Star Clan military camp, a Golden Core expert saw a soul lamp suddenly extinguish, and his face changed.

"Someone!"

The Golden Core expert roared.

"General!"

A Foundation Establishment military officer strode in.

Pointing to the lamp, the Golden Core general's face was very grim.

When the military officer saw the extinguished soul lamp, his face also changed, and he exclaimed, "Senior Ouyang has fallen!"

The tent fell silent.

After a while, the Golden Core general sighed, "This time, the surrounding races have united to attack our Blue Star Clan. Our clan is under pressure on all sides, and there is no reinforcement. We need to fight alone! The biggest problem is that they are setting up a large-scale teleportation array. If they succeed, a large number of reinforcements will keep coming, making it even harder for us to fight!"

"Senior Ouyang volunteered to hide and destroy their teleportation array. He was mixed in with the captives and should have been able to reach it. How did he suddenly die?"

"Certainly, something unexpected happened!"

"You are right. The Abyssals are very cruel. A few days ago, we noticed that Ouyang's soul lamp was shaking, indicating that he was severely injured and had been suppressing it. Now it seems that his injuries could no longer be suppressed, and some unexpected event occurred!"

The Golden Core expert analyzed.

If the old man were here, he would praise the general's insight. Before Qin Ning's incident, he had secretly tried to capture an Abyssal to find out the location of their teleportation array. He was attacked by several experts, managed to escape, but was severely injured, with his internal organs damaged. He could no longer complete his mission. When he met Qin Ning, he decided to risk his life to teleport Qin Ning. Later, the cruelty of the Abyssals forced him to fight, and he eventually died from exhaustion.

"General, what should we do?"

"Order!"

The Golden Core expert's face turned serious as he gave orders to the Foundation Establishment military officer.

"Order our army to quickly gather and launch a full-scale attack on the Abyssal army!"

"Yes!"

Watching the Foundation Establishment military officer leave, the Golden Core general looked at the soul lamp, sighed, and then strode out.

Since the sabotage could not be carried out, they could only engage in battle.

...

The two armies were already in fierce battle, and Qin Ning's cultivation had entered a state.

He had long put all his affairs aside. Qin Ning deeply knew that only by improving his cultivation could he have a chance to survive in the cultivation world.

The Energy Absorption Technique was indeed a good technique that could turn acupoints into dantians!

After successfully cultivating it, Qin Ning was quite surprised. The greatest advantage of this technique was that each acupoint could store a large amount of true qi like a dantian. With such a vast storage of true qi, breaking through barriers became easier.

Ordinary people would take a large number of pills when breaking through stages, hoping to use the power of the pills to enhance their breakthrough. Now, he did not need to take pills. He only needed to store enough true qi in his major acupoints and use this vast true qi to break through barriers, successfully breaking through.

Cultivation was no longer difficult for him!

Qin Ning knew that this Energy Absorption Technique was probably only suitable for him. A key to cultivating this technique was that his body was completely filled with Xirang, a special substance. Only with Xirang could the acupoints be expanded.

This time, he was teleported by divine sense, and his entire divine sense was filled with the aura of Xirang. Therefore, after merging with the body, Xirang could fully integrate with the body. If it were someone else, even if they had a large amount of Xirang, they might not succeed.

After the Energy Absorption Technique was activated, Qin Ning did not need to manage it anymore. It was an automatic technique that continuously stored true qi.

After mastering the Energy Absorption Technique, Wang Ping again immersed himself in cultivation. The Spirit Refinement Technique was his most important technique, and Qin Ning hoped to cultivate it as quickly as possible.

Qin Ning, who was fully devoted to cultivation, did not care about external affairs. He did not know that the old man's death had caused the battle to start earlier.

Due to the early start of the battle, those searching for him had to retreat. Otherwise, with his hiding place, there was still a significant possibility that they would find him.

The outside world was already a battlefield, and in the cave, Qin Ning's cultivation was nearing completion. The first level of body refinement in the Spirit Refinement Technique was almost complete.

"There is a cave here!"

"The pursuers are coming, let's set up an array!"

While Qin Ning was at a critical point in his cultivation, he heard two women's voices outside the cave.

They are here!

He did not expect that such a hidden place would still have people coming.

He could tell that these were two Blue Star women, and they were being pursued by enemies!

Qin Ning could not care about external affairs. Fortunately, his hiding place was quite hidden, so he was not afraid that the two women would discover him.
