Chapter 778 - 322: Cultivation in the Cave Mansion on the Island for Fifteen Years (Part 2)
At this moment, Chu Ning had made up his mind.
"When I first arrived at Ice Island Immortal City, I spent two secluded cultivation periods of about eight years each, which helped me break through to the Second Layer of the Five Elements Chaos Technique.
At the same time, it also allowed me to advance from the Early Stage to the Middle Stage of Golden Core.
The ten years of seclusion before only increased my cultivation proficiency by a little, but there’s still some distance to the Third Layer.
First, I will cultivate steadily for ten years, and if that’s not enough, then for fifteen years.
The goal... Golden Core Late Stage!"
With the goal set, Chu Ning’s cultivation became very targeted in the following days.
Most of his time each day was spent cultivating the Five Elements Chaos Technique, followed by some time spent on the Nine Derivations Body Refining Technique and the Refining Spirit Technique.
Occasionally, he would cultivate Spirit Plants, tease Spirit Beasts, study arrays, or craft the Ice Shadow Sword Talisman, and time passed quickly.
A year had gone by in a flash.
This day, as Chu Ning walked out of the Cloud Thunder Array, he didn’t enter the Cultivation Room but appeared outside the island wearing a white robe.
This white robe was from the Nascent Soul Late Stage Cultivator of the Holy Sun Sect, found in the Ice Crown Mountain glacier.
At the time, Chu Ning only tried it out briefly, and upon discovering the robe’s wonders, he decided to enhance it.
Over the past year, Chu Ning tried various materials to refine the robe, attempting to add some wind element magic dao runes to assist in using his Divine Wind Escape.
The Phantom Escape consumed too much Magical Power; it was excellent for combat, but for ordinary flying escape, the Divine Wind Escape was better.
Chu Ning previously considered refining a good flying-type Magical Treasure, but he never found suitable materials.
The blue magic robe he refined before was decent when used with the Divine Wind Escape, and the Magical Power consumption was significantly lower than the one Ge Liuyang refined.
But it still didn’t satisfy Chu Ning, as long-distance flight still consumed too much Magical Power.
Especially in this Northern Cold Land, where the sea and mountains were vast, he hoped for a magical treasure for sustained flight just in case.
Discovering this white robe could significantly save Magical Power fulfilled his wish.
However, this year’s trials did not succeed immediately. Chu Ning tried over ten materials, none successfully adding embellishments to the robe.
Either the wind dao pattern array didn’t work, or it even increased the white robe’s Magical Power consumption.
Chu Ning discarded all these materials.
Until half a year ago, Chu Ning tested a material suitable for crafting.
Chu Ning himself had forgotten where exactly he obtained this material.
In his spare time over the past six months, Chu Ning continuously used this material to refine and embed wind array dao patterns into the white robe.
Only recently was it finally completed.
The current white robe was noticeably different from before.
The collar, cuffs, hem, etc., were adorned with pale silver talismanic runes, even with some mysterious dao runes occasionally at the waist, chest, and back.
Even if Feng Yanzhang saw it now, he wouldn’t recognize it as the former white robe.
"Bai Ling, Da Jin, Xiao Jin, come, let’s compete in speed!"
Chu Ning flew out of the array, also calling out Bai Ling and the two Golden Thunder Eagles.
This year, Bai Ling and the two Golden Spirit Eagles were having more fun than in Ice Island Immortal City.
In addition to having dozens of miles to roam freely on the island, they could occasionally fly to the Outer Sea.
Especially the two Golden Spirit Eagles, although the demon beasts on the island had long been cleared by Chu Ning.
But flying out from this island, there were other islands in every direction about a thousand miles away.
There were still quite a few low tier demon beasts in the sea.
Compared to before when they could only rely on absorbing Spiritual Qi, their cultivation speed had noticeably increased.
Hearing Chu Ning’s words, Bai Ling laughed first:
"Master, you’re bullying us a bit. We simply can’t compare to your Phantom Escape."
"Don’t worry, I won’t use Phantom Escape today," Chu Ning said with a smile.
He also conveyed these words through Divine Sense to the two Golden Thunder Eagles.
"Goo!!"
Hearing Chu Ning’s words, the two Golden Thunder Eagles let out cheerful sounds, first transforming into two dark golden shadows flying ahead.
Seeing this scene, Chu Ning and Bai Ling also dashed forward.
Two white shadows followed closely.
In just a few blinks, the two white shadows had overtaken the Golden Thunder Eagles.
Among them, Chu Ning’s figure was faintly ahead of Bai Ling’s.
They flew for a full five hundred miles.
Chu Ning was the first to stop, and soon after, Bai Ling and the Golden Thunder Eagle arrived one after another.
"Oh? Master, you’re so fast! Without using Phantom Escape, you’re still faster than us."
Bai Ling transformed into the shape of a beautiful young lady, looking at Chu Ning with a face full of surprise.
Then her gaze fell upon the white robe Chu Ning was wearing.
After starting cultivation on the island, they each cultivated separately, and even Bai Ling didn’t know what Chu Ning did daily.
So, this was Bai Ling’s first time seeing the white robe Chu Ning had re-refined and adorned.
Chu Ning was also scrutinizing his robe at this moment, feeling very satisfied in his heart.
His Realm was higher than Bai Ling’s and the Golden Thunder Eagles’, and the level of Escape Techniques he used was high, so being faster than them wasn’t surprising.
However, before this, without using the Phantom Escape, Chu Ning was still slightly slower compared to Bai Ling after her breakthrough in Realm promotion.
