Big dreamer

Shen Luo quickly and carefully recalled the second level formula of the Wuming Kung Fu, and then carefully reflected on his own operation and practice just now, but found that there were basically no discrepancies.

"Logically speaking, it shouldn't be so difficult..." He was doubtful, so he closed his eyes and crossed his legs again, practicing silently.

After a while, Shen Luo's eyes opened again, and the expression on his face had changed from confusion to depression.

This time, he still failed to break through the Purple Palace Point.

The magic power in the body cannot penetrate at all. Let alone a Zhoutian, even half a Zhoutian cannot function.

"I didn't succeed in the art of channeling demons before. Could it be that my talent is really poor? No, I have to try again..." Shen Luo gritted his teeth unwillingly and closed his eyes again to practice.

After repeating this several times, he finally recognized the reality. The second level of exercise was much more difficult than he imagined. It was impossible to go through it smoothly. He could only conquer the city one level at a time. The ground is opened.

Judging from the speed of his previous attempts, if he wanted to perfect the second unknown skill, it would probably take him four to five years to achieve a breakthrough.

This speed is even far lower than that of people with average qualifications mentioned in the Nameless Heavenly Book. It takes them two years to achieve perfection.

The practice of the first level of skills went so smoothly, and the practice of the Water-Treading Technique was like God's help. This made Shen Luo think that his talent was actually good, and he was even a little complacent. Now he just felt like a basin of cold water was poured down on him.

From this point of view, there seems to be no problem with Master Luo and others in Chunqiu Temple's assessment of him. He indeed has no talent in the practice of magic.

After realizing this, although Shen Luo was greatly disappointed, he did not really lose confidence.

Before he obtained the technique, he was always facing the threat of death. He was not just fighting hard to live towards death. Now the situation is just a little worse than he expected, so he just needs to continue practicing.

Whether it takes four or five years, as long as there is an opportunity to succeed, he will not miss it.

In the next few days, Shen Luo would come to Qiantan to practice during the day, and at night he would stick on the ghost exorcism charm and always observe the changes in the jade pillow absorbing the light threads.

Perhaps it was because he had entered the Qi refining period, but he didn't feel tired at all after working like this day and night.

That night, Shen Luo sat cross-legged on the bed as usual, staring at the jade pillow without blinking.

He was confused in his heart, this ray of light had been continuously coming in for days, but the jade pillow never changed.

At this moment, there was a knock on the door.

Shen Luo was startled. With the sensitivity of his facial features, even though most of his attention was focused on the jade pillow just now, he should not have noticed the person outside the door at all.

And it's the middle of the night, who would come here at this time?

He quickly took off the ghost exorcism charm on his body and stuffed the jade pillow under the bed. Then he stood up and opened the door. A figure in green robe stood outside, but it was Taoist Luo.

"Master Luo, why are you here? Come in quickly." Shen Luo hurriedly invited Master Luo into the house.

"No need. I was passing by here and stopped by to take a look. You look good now. It seems that you have recovered well after going home." Luo Daoren stood at the door and did not move. He just looked Shen Luo up and down and said.

"Thank you Master Luo for your concern. This disciple's body has recovered a lot." Shen Luo lowered his eyes with a respectful expression.

"That's good. Since your health is no longer serious, pack your belongings and come down the mountain with me." Luo Daoren nodded and said suddenly.

"Going down the mountain?" Shen Luo was startled.

"I'm going to catch a ghost. Bai Xiaotian has not returned from the mountain. Tian Tiesheng was sent out by the boss yesterday to do something, so it will be easier for you." Luo Daoren glanced at Shen Luo and said.

When Shen Luo heard this, he quickly analyzed the pros and cons in his mind and remained silent for a while.

"What? You don't want to go?" Luo Daoren frowned.

"It is an honor for me to serve Master Luo. However, my Xiao Huayang Gong is far less powerful than the two senior brothers. If something goes wrong in the process, I am afraid it will drag Master Luo down." Shen Luo calmed down and said. .

If he had encountered such a thing in the past, he would have happily gone there.

But he has a lot of secrets hidden in his body now, and he really doesn't want to be around a person with such powerful magic power as Luo Daoren, who might be exposed at some point.

"You are afraid of death, you are just catching a ghost. You don't need to do anything when the time comes, just stand aside." Luo Daoren thought he had guessed Shen Luo's thoughts and said with a slight smile.

"Thank you Master Luo for your understanding. I'll allow this disciple to make some preparations." When Luo Taoist said this, Shen Luo knew that he could no longer refuse, so he had to agree.

"Pack up quickly and leave immediately." Luo Daoren said, turned and left.

Shen Luo took a few steps forward respectfully. When Taoist Luo walked away, the smile on his face gradually disappeared, and a trace of sadness appeared on his face.

However, he quickly calmed down, put his mind back together, and went back to his room to pack his things. He brought two changes of clothes with him, as well as the small thunder talisman and the ghost-expelling talisman he had drawn before, just in case of emergencies.

Anyway, his research on talismans has long been a semi-public matter, so he doesn't have to worry about being discovered.

Shen Luo glanced at the stone box at hand, and after a slight hesitation, he put it into the package.

Although carrying this stone box with him would increase the risk, he was even more worried if he stayed at Chunqiu Temple. Fortunately, this stone box did not have any fluctuations in vitality. Taoist Luo would not notice it unless he saw it with his own eyes.

Even if he was unlucky enough to be noticed by Luo Daoren, he had already thought of an excuse. He said that there was a lucky life-saving item in it that he had asked for when he went home last time, and it could not be opened easily. With Luo Daoren's style of doing things, he should not force his things.

After packing up everything, Shen Luo hurried out and came to Luo Daoren's residence.

"Why are you dawdling until now? Come here quickly." Luo Daoren was already waiting outside the residence. Seeing Shen Luo coming, he frowned and scolded.

"Yes." Shen Luo hurriedly quickened his pace and trotted over.

"Stand next to me." Luo Daoren pointed to his side.

A trace of confusion flashed in Shen Luo's eyes, but he still stood over as he was told.

Luo Daoren reached out and took out something from his arms. It was a white handkerchief with rune-like patterns on the surface. The whole body emitted a soft white light, which was quite conspicuous in the night.

Shen Luo saw the white handkerchief and his heart moved. He seemed to understand something.

Luo Daoren took out a blue talisman with his other hand and stuck it on the white handkerchief, muttering something.

Blue light immediately appeared on the blue talisman and was injected into the white handkerchief.

The runes on the surface of the white handkerchief all lit up, emitting a soft white light, which flew up from Luo Daoren's hand and hovered in front, looking like a white lantern.

At the same time, a stream of cold air immediately gathered from the nearby air and merged into the white handkerchief, making the white light emitted by the handkerchief brighter.

Shen Luo was not unfamiliar with this cold air, it was the water spirit air.
