Chen Qian was shocked, but fortunately he held back and didn't fire the ball on him.

"But this means that when the realm is high, the shield protection ability of the shield technique will also be enhanced. For example, if a cultivator in the Qi Refining Stage uses fireball to attack a cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Stage, the cultivator in the Foundation Establishment Stage may not be injured." Old Taoist Ping added.

"So that's how it is." Chen Qian finally understood.

"Okay, you go back to practice first." Old Master Ping waved his hand to signal Chen Qian to leave.

"Yes." Chen Qian responded.

"By the way, how many of those spirit stones have you used?" Old Master Ping seemed to remember something and suddenly asked.

"Disciple is not useful yet." Chen Qian was surprised. He didn't expect that Old Taoist Ping actually asked him to use spirit stones when practicing. In his opinion, spirit stones are only worth using when breaking through the realm.

"Why is it useless?" Old Master Ping showed displeasure on his face.

"I don't want to give up." Chen Qian scratched his head embarrassedly.

"The spirit stone is for use. Although you can keep it for some magic weapons, your own cultivation is the foundation." Old Master Ping sighed and said, "Don't be too frugal, you can earn spiritual stones in the end."

"The disciple knows." Chen Qian bowed and replied.

"Then you go and work hard to practice." Old Master Ping waved his hand and said.

After breakfast the next day, Old Dao Ping and Shen Qian got on the carriage and left Huangshi Town.

Before leaving, Mr. Zhu stuffed a package into the car. Seeing Mr. Zhu's difficulty, it should be something yellow and white. Old Master Ping didn't look at it and put it away directly.

"By the way, Master, is that ghost really the original wife of Zhu Yuanwai who died?" Chen Qian remembered what the square-faced and wide-browed man said and asked curiously.

Old Dao Ping waved his hand, and a transparent cover covered him and Shen Qian. Chen Qian looked at the cover curiously.

"Where is the hell? I used my divine thoughts to control those combs, cups, and saucers on the roof." Old Dao Ping laughed.

"No...no ghost..." Chen Qian couldn't help but be stunned.

After staying for a while, he asked again: "Is there any ghost in the world?"

"There are ghosts, but there are too few. If you meet them in the future, I will tell you."

"Then what is this cover?" Chen Qian turned his attention to the transparent cover again.

"This is called a 'sound insulation cover', which can isolate sounds. If someone uses his spiritual sense to spy on it, the cover will be broken and remind you."

"But can't we directly use our spiritual sense to transmit voice?" Chen Qian said in confusion.

"The transmission of the divine sense consumes magic power. If the two are close and want to say some secret words, or there are many people, it is better to use a sound insulation cover."

After saying that, the old Taoist took out a jade tube and handed it to Chen Qian, saying, "You can learn this sound insulation cover too."

Chen Qian reached out to take it, put the jade tube into the storage bag, and asked again: "Master, why are you looking for objects to cultivate immortals among the people? Isn't there everywhere in the world of cultivation?"

"You can indeed see spiritual stones and other things everywhere in the world of immortal cultivation, but the risks are also great. Not only are those spirit stones profitable, but there are often killings or fighting. As a teacher, he has low cultivation and not courage, so he used such a stupid method to collect resources for cultivation. Finally, he was lucky enough to survive now, otherwise he would have become a piece of loess long ago." Old Taoist Ping sighed.

Chen Qian thought of the Taoist Ding who unfortunately lost his life just because he was involved in the struggle between his family's children, and he nodded. However, he immediately had another question and asked: "Do you have many immortal cultivation items in the folk?"

"Not many, but it's better than not or losing your life." The old Taoist replied, "and a long time ago there was a war that swept the entire world of immortal cultivation, and many immortal cultivation items were scattered everywhere.

"Later, the terrain changed, most of the items were buried underground, and some places became villages or farmland, so they were gradually discovered. In addition, many ancient monks left caves and inheritances, because the terrain changes may also be buried among the people.

"The late-stage Jindan cultivator "Tianji Zhenren" who was more than two thousand years ago was a casual cultivator. He found the inheritance of ancient monks to achieve the golden elixir, so there are not too few people like a master. Everyone hopes that such good luck will fall on their heads one day."

"It would be great if we could find a heritage," Chen Qian couldn't help but say.

"It's not easy." Old Master Ping sighed, "The reason why I want to say that I can catch ghosts in those towns is to find the caves of those ancient monks. Unfortunately, I haven't found them for so many years."

"What does catching ghosts have to do with finding the cave of ancient monks?" Chen Qian asked in confusion.

"Because there are often formation restrictions outside the caves of ancient monks, such as maze formations, illusion formations, etc. If they are encountered by mortals, they will think that they have encountered ghosts or have hit the walls."

"So that's how it is." Chen Qian understood, "Master, have you been to the Gu Xiu Cave?"

"I have been to others a few times before, but I have not found the inheritance. The last time is very dangerous, so I turned to travel around." Old Master Ping said calmly.

"But even if you really find the inheritance, I am afraid that you will not be able to break through the foundation building. You are different. Even if you don't find the inheritance, you have a great chance to break through the foundation building. So you must work hard to practice and don't place your hope on this illusory inheritance." Old Taoist Ping continued.

"Master, how do you know that I have the opportunity to break through the foundation building?" Chen Qian suddenly remembered that Old Dao Ping seemed very optimistic that he could build the foundation building.

"You are only fourteen or fifteen years old?" asked Old Master Ping.

"Well, I'm just fourteen years old during the Chinese New Year." Chen Qian replied honestly.

"When did you start practicing?"

“August last year.”

"That's just less than two years. In less than two years, it's already very good. Besides, you're still so young and have a lot of time. Many casual cultivators only have the opportunity to start practicing until they are twenty or thirty years old." The expression on Old Taoist Ping's face was very strange, as if they were very happy, and seemed a little emotional.

"Master, when did you start practicing?" Chen Qian asked curiously.

Old Master Ping didn't speak, looked out of the car with his eyes, and after a while, he said, "Eight years old."

Then he said self-deprecatingly: "I only have the seventh level of Qi refining until now, so you should know how poor your qualifications are as a teacher."

After saying that, he closed his eyes and stopped talking.

Seeing that the old Taoist was not in high spirits, Chen Qian didn't dare to continue asking questions, and the carriage fell silent.

After a long time, Old Master Ping suddenly said, "You can practice in the car, you should hurry up and practice."

"Can you practice in the car?" Chen Qian was shocked.

"Yes, but the effect is a little worse, but it also has 50% or 60% of the usual effect." Ping Laodao said, "The reason I hire a carriage to rush on the road is because I can practice on the road."
