Chapter 8 3rd Floor of Gathering Qi

Ning Cheng didn't expect to ask a question, this guy's attitude is so bad, he can only prepare to go down to the fifth floor to ask. The sixth floor is much larger than the seventh floor, and occasionally people can be seen entering and leaving the practice room, but it is no different from the seventh floor, where no one can be seen entering and leaving at all.

"Wait a minute." At the stairs, Ning Cheng was stopped by someone.

"You called me?" Ning Cheng turned his head and saw a boy a few years older than him, who seemed to have just come out of the training room. This boy's complexion was much darker than Ning Cheng's, and there was a smile on the corner of his mouth, apparently without any malice.

Ning Cheng knew that any one of these cultivating students had a much higher status than him, a handyman. In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, he didn't intend to ask such people at all, nor did he intend to talk to these students. In Cang Qin State, most of the students who can enter this academy come from unusual backgrounds, no matter which one, Ning Cheng can't afford to provoke them.

"I heard what you said just now, you should be cleaning the practice room, right?" the boy said directly.

Ning Cheng quickly replied, "Yes, it's my first day here and I don't know where the place to eat is, so I'm here to ask."

"Not only do you not know where to eat, but you also don't seem to know the rules here. Remember from now on, handymen on the big stairs are not allowed to walk. Once you are encountered by some students or law enforcement officers, you will lose your skin if you don't die."

Hearing this boy's words, Ning Cheng was shocked, he just came down from the seventh floor, he just took the big stairs. And Ji Luofei didn't tell him that he can't walk up the big stairs? If there really was such a rule, and the boy didn't remind him, he's probably really in danger.

"Thank you friend for telling me, otherwise I would be in danger." Ning Cheng said gratefully.

The boy smiled and said, "It's nothing. I used to clean the training room before. After seven years of doing this, I finally reached the second floor of Qi Gathering. Then I was favored by the academy and became an official student of the academy. Now I have gathered Qi for four years. It's too late. Work hard, maybe you can be like me in the future. Remember, in the future, you can only go in and out of the cultivation tower through the side door."

After finishing speaking, the boy pointed to a very hidden small door, "There is a side door, there are on every floor. After you go in, you can go directly to the back of the cultivation tower. There is a place to eat at the back of the cultivation tower, and the money for eating I earned it by myself, so don’t go to find Mr. Mu, or you will die, I wish you good luck.”

After the boy finished speaking, he didn't say his name, and went down the stairs by himself.

Ning Cheng knew that the other party did not intend to know him. But this boy pointed out these things, which is equivalent to saving his life, Ning Cheng is extremely grateful to this boy in his heart.

Seeing the sound of footsteps coming from the grand staircase again, Ning Cheng hurried to the small door in the corner, opened it and slipped in.

Behind the small door is extremely dark, and there is only a narrow stair passage, which looks like a rescue passage of a tall building on the earth.

Walking all the way down the stair passage, Ning Cheng realized that he was already behind the cultivation tower after he came out. Behind the cultivation tower is also the interior of the college, but there are very few people coming, and there is only a long and thin winding path. There are some towering trees on both sides of the path, and in the gap between the tree shadows, you can still see many students from the college coming and going. There are also some students who deliberately got into this trail and hurried along the trail.

Ning Cheng also followed this path, and after walking for about a quarter of an hour, he saw a narrow door, and there was a stone house beside the door. There was a middle-aged man inside the stone house, but this man didn't care about the students coming in and out through the small door. It seemed that he was just a gatekeeper.

After Ning Cheng walked out of this small door,

Immediately, I was shocked by the prosperity in front of me. This is simply a vegetable market with everything, noisy.

There are all kinds of shops, snack shops and street stalls. It's just that the grades are very low, far inferior to the big streets in the center of Cangle City. This place is so prosperous, and there are so many people, Ning Cheng even suspected that Ji Luofei didn't know about this place at all, at least he didn't have any memory about it before.

A huge sign was erected in the most conspicuous place, with arrows to various places on the sign.

The first one is not a commercial building, nor is it a magic weapon elixir shop, but a bucket pot. It was the first time Ning Cheng had heard of the name Dou Guo, and a strong curiosity arose in his heart. Simply follow the direction of the arrow pointing to the bucket, and after ten minutes, a huge circular building appeared in front of you.

Ning Cheng stopped, and he saw two people blocking the entrance of the round building, apparently they wanted to pay. There are still some silver coins on his body, which are his living expenses in the future, let him spend on this unknown cauldron, Ning Cheng does not want to waste it like this.

Just when Ning Cheng was about to turn around and leave, a few people came out from a door next to the circular building, and the discussions of these people attracted him.

"It's really meaningless to watch the barbarian fight. I'm a little upset about losing the silver coins today. I didn't see anything exciting, and I lost money."

"The fight between Ugly Girl Ji and Gu Fei last time was really exciting. I didn't expect Gu Fei to be no match for Ugly Girl Ji."

"Ji Luofei is ugly, but she also knows the importance of cultivation. After defeating Gu Fei, you will get a Qi-gathering stone. A Qi-gathering stone makes me jealous just thinking about it. But she also seems to be seriously injured. Gu Fei’s older brother Gu Yiming came back, and she probably would spit out what she ate. Even if Gu Yiming didn’t come back, Gu Fei wouldn’t be able to swallow this breath.”

"It's not necessarily an ugly girl. She's just disfigured. Otherwise, who else can you find in the academy who has a better figure than her? Even Jane Sujie, it's not as good as..."

"Quiet, you don't want to live anymore, dare to say Senior Sister Jian."

...

The few people gradually moved away, and the veins in Ning Cheng's fists were clenched. Ning Cheng didn't go inside the bucket, but he could already imagine that it should be an extremely bloody fighting field, which is equivalent to underground black boxing. He didn't expect that Ji Luofei's Qi Gathering Stone was obtained through hard work from this place, and it left behind serious sequelae.

That is Gu Fei's elder brother Gu Yiming, and I heard from these people that Gu Fei himself is not willing to let Ji Luofei go.

Ning Cheng was not in the mood to continue wandering around, so he casually sold some dry food and hurried back to the seventh floor of the cultivation tower. He wants to speed up his cultivation and reach the fourth level of Qi Gathering as soon as possible. In this place, strength means dignity.

Few students came to practice on the seventh floor of the cultivation tower. After Ning Cheng cleaned up the several training rooms, he locked himself in the small stone room and began to practice.

For students practicing in the practice room, once the room of the practice room is closed, the aura inside will increase exponentially. Ning Cheng didn't have this kind of treatment, what was his small stone house before, and what was still the same after it was closed.

When Ning Cheng started to gather qi, a new direction of true qi appeared in his mind again. With the Concealment Technique in front, Ning Cheng did not hesitate this time, and directly discarded the cultivation methods on the Ning Family Booklet, and practiced according to the cultivation method that appeared in his mind.

The spiritual energy in the outside world is thin, which has no effect on Ning Cheng at all. When he started to practice, his dantian provided a purer and thicker source of spiritual energy than the spiritual energy, allowing Ning Cheng to continuously cleanse and open up his whole body. Meridians everywhere.

Ning Cheng had the previous experience, so he didn't panic at this time, he found that using the cultivation method that appeared in his consciousness was more effective than the Ning family's cultivation thin scroll. Whether it is the speed at which true qi flows along the meridians, or the rest, it is more than ten times smoother.

When Ning Cheng woke up again, he was already at the second level of Qi gathering, and a lot of dirt oozes from his body again.

Feeling the flow of true energy stronger than the first level of Qi Gathering, let Ning Cheng know that he had advanced to the second level of Qi Gathering without any suspense. After calculating the time, he actually practiced for two days and two nights.

Apart from being hungry, there is only that feeling of true energy fluctuating like drums. Ning Cheng didn't dare to continue to practice, he had already committed a crime, and he didn't clean up the practice room for two days.

Fortunately, he also knew that there were very few people practicing on the seventh floor, and that Elder Mu would not really take care of him. Ning Cheng didn't go out to clean up the practice room immediately, but continued to practice a new spell, the dust removal technique. From now on, after each practice session, he should use the dedusting technique to remove the dirt on his body, instead of going downstairs to find water to wash.

In the early morning of the third day, Ning Cheng used the dedusting technique to clean himself up, and then went to clean the training room.

The practice room on the seventh floor was exactly as he thought, and not many people came to practice. Even if he hasn't come to clean it for three days, there are still several clean training rooms empty.

...

In the following days, Ning Cheng kept hiding on the seventh floor to practice, and at the same time, he took advantage of the opportunity to clean up the practice room to practice various spells in the practice room. The only regret is that he practiced spells in the training room without any spiritual support.

Time passed quickly, ten days passed in the blink of an eye, Ji Luofei did not come up to Ning Cheng once during this period. Ning Cheng also seldom went out, all his mind was put on cultivation.

But after Ning Cheng advanced to the third level of Qi Gathering, he became a little panicked. After he had cultivated to the third level of Qi Gathering, he could no longer feel the spiritual support in his body. Ning Cheng knew very well that without the support of the mysterious spiritual source in his body, even if he cultivated all his life, he would not be able to cultivate from the third level of Qi Gathering to the fourth level of Qi Gathering.

In the next few days, Ning Cheng practiced repeatedly, but he could no longer have the kind of pure spiritual support in his body. His cultivation has stagnated, but he has successfully practiced several simple spells. When he had just advanced to the third level of Qi Gathering, under the guidance of the modification of the exercises, he even changed the fireball technique and advanced into the fire knife technique.

Even so, it still made Ning Cheng anxious. Without the support of the mysterious spiritual source, he could only stay on the third level of Qi Gathering for the rest of his life.

Ning Cheng decided to go out to look for Ji Luo Fei, but since his cultivation has not progressed, he doesn't want to stay in this stone house any longer. He had just cleaned up, and before he opened the door, he heard a "boom", and the door of his small stone house was kicked open with his feet.
