Chapter 4 Exorcism

  The ice knife cut on his body, the pain was incomparable, the cold sweat on Lin Xuan's head, was also quickly frozen, enduring the pain that was unbearable to normal people, Lin Xuan tried his best to cultivate.   The sky is flying a light point, these are aura, but usually, the cultivator can not see, only when the aura is pure to a certain degree, can feel.   What Lin Xuan had to do was to inhale these points of aura light into his body, with such pure aura, it would be easier to refine them into mana.   Since it was visible, it wasn't difficult to absorb it, but the prerequisite was to endure the pain of the ice blades devouring his body.   One after another point of aura light was sucked into the body, and according to the master teacher's heart method, Lin Xuan incorporated them all into the dantian, and then gathered them into an aura mass.   The next thing to do was to refine it, only to see that aura qi mass rotating constantly in the dantian, shrinking in size but becoming more and more intense in color.   In the end, it finally transformed into a spiritual energy that emanated into the dantian.   And Lin Xuan's patience reached its limit, and he hurriedly pulled out his legs and ran out of the scope of the illusion.   Collapsing on the ground, Lin Xuan gasped straight for air, not wanting to move even a single finger.   ......   This process went on week after week for several hours until it was dark, and only then did Lin Xuan walk like the exit of the Refined Heart Road.   "Did you hear about it, that disciple without a spiritual root went to the Heart Refining Road to cultivate."   "Hmm, it's said that Uncle Ma saw it with his own eyes."   "Hmph, so what if he has perseverance, ordinary people are destined not to make a mark on the Immortal Path, waste is always waste!"   ......   On the way back, Lin Xuan happened to hear the comments about himself, and even though he had also spotted him, the disciples didn't care in the slightest and continued to dig in with a mocking tone.   Lin Xuan frowned, but he wouldn't get angry because it wouldn't help, in the cultivation world there was only one way to get the respect of others, and that was strength, instead of getting unnecessarily angry here, it would be better to go back to rest and continue practicing.   Returning to his residence, Lin Xuan pulled open the drawer and took out the paper filled with cultivation methods.   Repel objects, the spell of using spiritual energy to drive objects through the air, it is one of the most basic, but also the most important spells in the cultivation world, it is the root of using magic treasures, of course, magic treasures are still too far away for Lin Xuan right now, but he can practice this spell.   Using true essence, focusing the divine mind, attaching the consciousness to an object and making it move.   Throughout the afternoon, Lin Xuan practiced it over and over again, before, he had tried it but failed, after so many days of cultivation in the Path of Refined Heart, his spiritual energy had also strengthened a bit, which was why he had a new attempt.   In the blink of an eye, several hours had passed, and having been concentrating on the cup in front of him, his eyes were sore and his head was dizzy, Lin Xuan took a short break and then continued ......   With great effort, suddenly, the cup moved.   Although it was very slight, but it did move, Lin Xuan did not stop, running his spiritual energy, and continued practicing on the art of repelling objects until very late in the evening, before going to bed.   The next day, Lin Xuan came back to the Refined Heart Road.   The mists were thick, the ghosts and shadows were heavy, this time the illusion was the netherworld, countless severe ghosts like Lin Xuan pounced over, but the teenager turned a blind eye.   This hard time of cultivation, not only was his strength increasing, Lin Xuan's mind had also become tougher and more mature, and his endurance had increased dramatically, initially, Lin Xuan could only stay in the terrifying illusions for a few minutes, but now, although he went deeper and deeper, and endured even more terrifying illusions, he was able to hold out for an hour.   Ghosts, and all sorts of terrifying scenes surfaced in his mind, and all sorts of crippling negative influences invaded, as Lin Xuan gritted his teeth and endured the pain, endeavoring to inhale spiritual qi to cultivate.   ......   Leaving the range of influence of the illusion, Lin Xuan sat down on his knees on the ground, refining the absorbed spiritual qi and then doing a circumferential cycle.   Running through the meridians and finally returning to the dantian, Lin Xuan did it a total of nine times, the spiritual energy flowing through the meridians, although it was able to allow it to grow slowly, it was also a great burden on the body, while the average disciple would only do it three times, Lin Xuan had set himself the rule of doing it nine times.   This was already close to the limits of the human body, the first three times were fine, four times five times, the meridians were sore and swollen, seven times eight times, it was as painful as a knife cut, as for the ninth time, it was simply as painful as purgatory, Lin Xuan's forehead was full of bean-sized beads of sweat, his body even shivered uncontrollably from the pain, but he still tenaciously persisted, and finally completed the goal a few hours later.   After doing the great circumference exercise, Lin Xuan re-entered the illusionary realm.   Just like this week after week, Lin Xuan practiced hard at the Heart Refining Path, the pain that usually had to be endured by Foundation Establishment Stage Cultivators was something that he bore down hard with his tough perseverance.   Lin Xuan sat cross-legged on the ground, like an old monk in meditation, at this time, in his dantian, there was a light greenish-colored orb that was constantly twisting and changing, it was made from the gathering of spiritual energy.   A trace of spiritual energy was still being injected into that orb, after a month of practicing at the Path of Refining the Heart, Lin Xuan felt that his cultivation had increased quite a bit, and once again, he launched himself like the second layer of the Spiritual Dynamic Stage.   For cultivators, every time a realm rises one level, the spiritual energy undergoes a metamorphosis, and Lin Xuan was now at the most critical stage.   It was still a little bit short!   Divine sense expanded to the entire dantian, searching hard for the remnants of spiritual energy and injecting them into the orb, Lin Xuan felt like a sponge that had been drained dry, yet he still had to desperately squeeze out a little bit of water.   Stabbing ......   That spiritual energy orb changed again, a lightning bolt appeared on the surface, the aura began to spill out, the orb was about to collapse.   Lin Xuan did not give up and tried to maintain it as much as he could, but he had already reached his limit, bang, a soft sound, the green-colored orb burst, and the gathered spiritual energy decomposed and transformed into a hair-sized spiritual energy again, evenly distributed in the dantian.
