Fire Crow Technique, Fire Shield Technique!
Which one to Cultivate?
He Pingsheng first took a look.
This Fire Crow Technique, after Cultivating, uses the fire spiritual power within the body to condense and release fire crows, which can be sent out to attack enemies.
This is just a low-level Spell.
However, its attack power is extraordinary.
Once Cultivated to Minor Achievement, one can release a single fire crow and control it with Divine Thought, allowing it to attack enemies within a ten-zhang range.
Any further is not possible, as He Pingsheng's Divine Thought can currently only extend ten zhang.
If Cultivated to Major Achievement, one can release nine fire crows at once to fight enemies.
If Cultivated to Perfection Realm, one can release one hundred and eight fire crows in one breath, with unparalleled attack power.
A chaotic swarm of crows can easily slay even Cultivators at the Qi Refining Stage Twelfth Level.
Of course, Cultivating to Perfection is very difficult.
Now, let's talk about the Fire Shield Technique.
This is a defensive Spell.
After Cultivating, it can instantly form a fire-attribute shield, capable of blocking a single strike from an enemy of the same Realm.
In short, both of these Spells are very useful for He Pingsheng right now.
Which one to practice first?
Definitely the Fire Crow Technique.
Without attack, what's the use of having excellent defense?
Therefore, offensive Spells naturally take priority.
He Pingsheng first memorized the Cultivation method for the Fire Crow Technique, then began Cultivating in his room.
In the early stages, there was no need to worry about fire burning down his room.
Because he simply couldn't condense flames.
Only when the fire spiritual power circulates normally within the Meridians can the shape of a fire crow be condensed.
Spells are somewhat easier than Cultivation.
As long as the correct method is used, it's merely a matter of honing proficiency; the first step is completed when the fire spiritual power within the body can be drawn out.
This thing doesn't depend on Aptitude, only on proficiency.
One day!
Two days!
Three days!
In a blink of an eye, over twenty days passed.
On this day, He Pingsheng was Cultivating the Fire Crow Technique as usual, when suddenly, a fiery light emerged from the palm of his right hand, instantly transforming into a dazzling crow.
The crow wasn't large, just slightly bigger than a palm.
The crow glowed with dazzling fiery light, continuously flapping its wings in his palm, as if ready to soar at any moment.
He Pingsheng was immediately overjoyed, took a deep breath and withdrew his magical power; with the fire spiritual power removed, the fire crow in his palm naturally lost its Foundation and instantly vanished.
"The room is too cramped, I can't cast it!"
"Hmm... I should find a secluded place to test my Divine Ability!"
He Pingsheng stood up, patted himself down, and was about to head out when he suddenly saw the gathering treasure basin lying under the bed.
This place was different from Xiuzhu Peak before.
Someone could break into his room at any time.
The scene of his parents' treasures being stolen back then was still vivid in his mind.
Therefore, He Pingsheng wasn't at ease leaving the gathering treasure basin in the room after he left.
Although there's a high probability that even a thief wouldn't touch this item, what if?
This was a treasure.
He Pingsheng couldn't afford to gamble.
But if he carried it, it would be too troublesome.
"Sigh!" He couldn't help but let out a deep sigh, "How great it would be if I had a Storage Pouch!"
What a pity, this was just a beautiful wish.
Because even among the Inner Sect Disciples of the Tai Xu Sect who possessed extraordinary talent, over ninety-nine percent of them did not have such an Advanced item as a Storage Pouch.
This item was often only possessed by Elders of the Foundation Establishment Stage.
How could he dare to hope for it?
"Or... should I bury it?"
He Pingsheng picked up the gathering treasure basin.
However, just as he was about to dig up the ground, a flash of insight came to him.
When he was young, he had seen his father cut his finger and drip essence blood onto that Magical Artifact.
Could it be that dripping blood onto this treasure would allow it to recognize its master?
Let's try it!
If it doesn't work, it won't be too late to bury it underground.
He Pingsheng, with a try-and-see attitude, took a small knife from the table and, with a swift cut, made a small incision on his left hand.
A few drops of fresh blood instantly flowed out.
He Pingsheng let the blood drip into the gathering treasure basin.
Soon, a miraculous scene occurred.
Where the blood dropped, a golden light suddenly flashed out.
Then the blood, following the originally invisible Texture, instantly fused into the entire basin body of the gathering treasure basin.
In a few breaths, the blood disappeared.
"Again!"
He Pingsheng dropped another drop of fresh blood, and another golden light flashed out.
After several such attempts, the basin suddenly changed, whooshing into a purple-gold light and flying into He Pingsheng's body.
This...
He Pingsheng was dumbfounded.
Where's my treasure, my basin?
It didn't get lost, did it?
The next moment, He Pingsheng's Divine Thought flashed, and he looked inward.
He saw that within his Dantian, beneath a fiery red Qi vortex, a black basin lay quietly.
What else could it be but the gathering treasure basin?
"Come..."
He Pingsheng's Divine Thought moved.
With a whoosh, the gathering treasure basin transformed back into golden light and flew out, landing in He Pingsheng's hand.
"Store..." With another movement of Divine Thought, the gathering treasure basin returned to his Dantian.
Hiss, hiss, hiss...
This is great.
He Pingsheng laughed heartily, then flopped onto the bed with a bang, taking a deep breath.
From now on, he would no longer have to worry about the gathering treasure basin being stolen.
After a long while, He Pingsheng's excitement subsided, and he began to ponder again.
The gathering treasure basin had been stored away.
But there were still two jade bottles in the room.
These two pill bottles contained two supreme-grade Gathering Qi Pills; what should he do with them?
Carry them with him?
He just didn't know if the gathering treasure basin could hold items and then be stored away.
Hmm...
Let's try!
"Come..." He Pingsheng's Divine Thought moved, and the gathering treasure basin appeared in his hand.
Clang...
A sound!
He Pingsheng then threw the two jade bottles into the basin.
"Store!"
At this point, he tried to store the gathering treasure basin again.
Whoosh...
The gathering treasure basin was indeed stored in the Dantian.
He Pingsheng's Divine Thought scanned his body and found that there were indeed two more jade bottles in the gathering treasure basin within his Dantian.
Hey!
It really can store things!
Since it can store them, then all together.
"Come..." He Pingsheng summoned the gathering treasure basin from his Dantian, then placed the two books inside as well.
Besides the two books, he found a bag of spiritual rice in the room.
About a hundred jin.
This certainly wouldn't fit.
Because He Pingsheng had tried before, this basin could only hold about ten-odd jin of spiritual rice.
Any more wouldn't work.
"Sigh..." He sighed, saying, "It's a bit small. If only this gathering treasure basin could be a bit bigger!"
As He Pingsheng's words fell, the gathering treasure basin on the table suddenly grew a size larger.
From the size of a normal basin, it became as large as a bathtub.
Now, putting the spiritual rice in was certainly no problem.
However, at this moment, He Pingsheng wasn't in the mood to put in the spiritual rice; he excitedly looked at the gathering treasure basin and said, "Bigger, bigger... even bigger..."
The gathering treasure basin grew larger and larger.
Finally, the entire basin reached three chi in circumference before it stopped expanding.
That is to say, this three-chi size was the limit of the basin.
