After the New Year, Su Yan finally began to teach Yin Qi to practice the third level of water control technique - turning water into ice.

This became the most painful period since her practice.

The way of practice taught her by Su Yan is said to be used by all spiritual disciples in the library. Although it is very different from what is recorded in the "Witch Sutra", it is much faster to learn.

First, the spiritual disciple needs to be immersed in ice water to sense its temperature and state, and it takes at least half an hour to soak at a time.

Ordinary people may have died long ago when they do this, but they are not a threat to the spiritual disciples. However, this process is definitely not good, especially at the beginning.

Yin Tingxiu is a veteran, so he suggested that Yin Qi wear less clothes and only cover her with a thin quilt when she falls asleep so that she can get used to it in advance. On the first time she soaked in ice water, she also asked her to take a few pills made of white dragon claws.

Despite his full preparation, Yin Qi looked at the large pool of ice floating on the pond water. Before she could go down, she could already feel the cold cold air and couldn't help but tremble slightly.

Although it is winter, the water on the mountain never freezes. This ice cube was created by Su Yan using the water control technique.

Su Yan stood by the pond with his hands on his back. Seeing Yin Qi taking off her outer clothes, he just lowered his head slightly and had no intention of leaving.

Yin Qi was very relieved about Su Yan. She felt that she was no different from a tree in the eyes of this little master. Moreover, she really needed someone to guide her on the side this time, so she didn't think anything was wrong.

She slowly stepped into the water, and the cold pool water immediately surrounded her calves. A faint stinging pain came, and Yin Qi was almost unable to stand firm.

This is the effect of the highest-level magic in the water control technique! As expected, the ice created in this way is more chiller than the naturally formed ice and snow.

"Relax, don't resist it, and don't think about how to warm up," Su Yan said quickly when she saw her trembling violently, "Calm down first."

It's easy to say! Yin Qi felt her feet slowly losing consciousness, which is not a good sign.

She simply stopped, closed her eyes, tried to relax her tense muscles, circulated her spiritual power around her, and tried to regain her feet.

After consciousness came back, Yin Qi walked to the depths of the small pool and sat down slowly.

The cold wrapped her whole body, and she became tense again uncontrollably, and her spirit gradually became weak.

The water waves were flowing, and Su Yan got into the water at some point. He walked towards Yin Qi with a calm expression and knelt down in front of Yin Qi, as if he was not in a pool of ice water but a comfortable guest room.

Yin Qi knew that Su Yan was here to help her. She saw Su Yan stretching out her index finger and pointing her eyebrows, and signaling her to close her eyes.

Yin Qi went to the herringbone class for the first time, and Lu Kang guided her to meditate in this way.

After a lot of discomforts, Yin Qi finally got better under Su Yan's guidance, gradually felt the distribution of spiritual energy in the water and connected her own power with it.

An hour passed, and Su Yan asked Yin Qi to withdraw from the water. "It's too much, too little," he said, "If you practice to this level today, you can go back and eat more warm things."

Before Yin Qi could get up, Su Yan walked away. Yin Qi came out of the water and found that her hands were a little out of control. She simply wrapped a cloak and went back to the wooden house first.

After walking for a while, the numbness of hands and feet finally eased. Yin Qi walked to the front of the house and found Yin Tingxiu standing at the door waiting for her.

He saw Yin Qi's embarrassing look and rarely made fun of him, "Come in the house, I've lit some charcoal for you."

There is a stove in the wooden house. I used to think this thing was useless, so it would be better to throw it away, but now it comes in handy.

Yin Qi coaxed Yin Tingxiu out, changed his clothes and let him in. The two of them sat down around the fire. Yin Tingxiu got two sweet potatoes from somewhere and put them on the fire and roasted them.

"How can you still stand it?" Yin Tingxiu asked.

"Yes," Yin Qi nodded, "It's just that the process is a bit difficult and you need to work hard to persevere."

"How did your brother feel at that time?"

"I did not suffer this sin. Mr. Yi asked me to use the cultivation method in the "Witch Sutra".

The "Witch Sutra" records it very simply, that is, meditating continuously in water, and when you reach a certain level of cultivation, you will naturally understand the tricks.

This old method is extremely time-consuming. I wonder why Mr. Yi insisted that Yin Ting Xiu be far away from him?

"I also want to soak ice water like others, but the gentleman insisted that it was a lie and insisted that I lay a solid foundation slowly, otherwise I would not be able to achieve great success in the future." Yin Tingxiu explained.

Yin Qi said inexplicably: "Isn't this method created by Mr. Yi?"

"No, the one who advocates it is actually the uncle. It should be that he wants the spiritual disciples to become magicians as soon as possible! Otherwise, at a witch festival meeting every year, where will our Yin family find so many qualified magicians?"

The spiritual disciples are all practicing in this quick way, with the exception of Yin Tingxiu. It seems that he is indeed different in Mr. Yi's eyes.

"Why, I regret soaking ice water? I also want to practice like me?"

"No," Yin Qi smiled, "I hope the progress will be faster. As for what achievements will be made in the future, I dare not imagine. I will be grateful if I can successfully practice the three imperial techniques!"

Yin Tingxiu took the sweet potato off the fire, used the Qi-control technique to cool down, and then handed it to Yin Qi. He also took a piece and ate it, saying, "Who knows if the sir is true? Maybe it's just for the uncle to show it. These two old men have never dealt with each other."

"Mr. Yi and uncle are not in harmony?"

Yin Tingxiu was stunned for a moment and suddenly felt that he had said something he shouldn't say, but he had already said that he had to explain clearly, "It's probably because he's known each other for a long time, and he's a little tired of it! The two often sing opposite each other, especially my master, who sometimes openly resists the uncle's orders. Mr. Wei and Mr. Lu came to persuade him, and they had already had a few troubles."

Yin Qi rarely sees Yin Zhengyuan and Mr. Yi on weekdays, and she has never heard of this gossip. She doesn't understand that although Mr. Yi is very powerful in his magic, he is also working for the Yin family. Why did he have a conflict with his boss? Yin Zhengyuan has never criticized him at all. It's really strange!

"There are not many people in the spiritual disciples who know about this. You can't spread it. After all, we are juniors. If you know to discuss the elders privately, you will definitely be punished."

"Don't worry, brother, I understand."

After eating the sweet potatoes, Yin Tingxiu went back to practice with satisfaction.

The next day, she still soaked in ice water. Yin Qi's body adapted very quickly, and she no longer felt so painful than the first time. She finally understood why ordinary people sometimes regard them as evil spirits. Not only does it mention magic, the two are also very different in terms of physical condition.

When he went to Qingluan Pavilion in the afternoon, Jiang Yuenu saw some clues at a glance and smiled and said, "Your complexion is a bit abnormal. What new magic has you practiced?"

Yin Qi couldn't help but touch her cheek, "I am continuing to practice water control techniques, and I am reaching the last stage. What, have I changed?"

Jiang Yuenu took two steps back, looked carefully, and said, "Oh, what should I say? I just feel that you are becoming less and less popular."

The word popularity refers to the yang energy of the human body in medicine. However, Jiang Yuenu knew nothing about medical principles, so this is not the meaning. Yin Qi felt it even more interesting and asked, "Please give me some advice, what is popularity?"

"It's just humanity! There is no such thing as saying that people have seven emotions and six desires, love, hate, anger, and ignorance, but what about you? It seems that you can't see clearly!"

Yin Qi understood the meaning of her companion and explained to her: "It is the nature of a spiritual disciple who is weak in lust, and it will deepen after cultivation, and the same is true for me."

Jiang Yuenu was a little disappointed, "That is to say, you will become more and more uninhuman in the future?"

"It's just a slight, not completely. If you don't say anything else, I have never forgotten the wish of walking far away."

Jiang Yuenu finally gave up on this topic and talked with Yin Qi about the details of leaving the house.

Yin Qi breathed a sigh of relief in secret. She was introverted and good at hiding emotions. Practicing magic would deepen this impression. I am afraid that she would become a Lu Kang-like figure sooner or later. Jiang Yuenu, on the contrary, even though she knew how to hide her, she usually showed her joy and anger. If she was also a spiritual disciple, she would be like Mr. Yi in the future.

Yin Qi has always been worried that the two of them would have a rift due to their disagreement, and today it confirms her concerns.

Although it is not a contradiction, Jiang Yuenu should not like her changes, right?

You can't just think about magic and practice all day long. Yin Qi thought to herself that you should have more contact with others when you have the opportunity and get some popularity back.
