"Zi Yao, I heard that you made a big fuss in the Ginseng Beast Forest......" As they talked, Elder Stardust walked slowly.

"Teacher!" Jiang Ziyao hurriedly greeted Elder Stardust. At a glance, I saw that although he walked calmly, he seemed to have traveled a long way.

"Elder Stardust!" Seeing Jiang Ziyao's teacher at first glance, Zi Wan and Jin Xuan also hurriedly greeted the most mysterious elder of the Xinghua Sect.

"Well, there's no need to be formal. Elder Stardust looked at Aster and Jin Xuan with a smile, "My unworthy disciple looks honest, but I didn't expect that my sister would have a good hand and actually soak in the two most famous beautiful assassins of our Xinghua Sect at the same time...... Well, you have a vision!"

"Cai, it's not!" Jin Xuan suddenly blushed, shook her head and waved her hand in a panic, and defended in a loud voice: "Who would like this stinky nerd? I, we are just ordinary friends, ordinary people......"

"Yes~ Yes, I don't need to explain, my old man understands!" Elder Stardust still had a smiling expression, "You're that xiaolongbao, right?" Ziyao has mentioned you to me. ”

"Little ...... Cage...... Bao ......" Hearing these three words, Jin Xuan's pretty face with a little shyness immediately became gloomy. A pair of small fists were clenched tightly, as if they were ready to break Jiang Ziyao's front teeth at any time.

"Uh, that, no, Miss, please listen to my explanation. I, I ......" Jiang Ziyao also realized that something was wrong, scratching his ears and cheeks, wanting to say something. But after a long time, I couldn't say why.

Facts have proven many times that his belly full of people is also completely ineffective here in Jin Xuan. Therefore, he had no other way to calm Jin Xuan's anger.

"I'll settle accounts with you later, hum!" Jin Xuan, who gritted her teeth, stomped her foot hatefully. A pair of bright eyes full of anger almost stunned Jiang Ziyao to death.

"The more quarrels young people have, the better their feelings. Elder Stardust nodded with a smile, shifted his gaze slightly, looked at the smiling and silent Aster, and then said to Jiang Ziyao, "It seems that you need to add more oil." The number one beauty assassin of Xinghua Sect is not so easy to get started. ”

"Oh......" Jiang Ziyao glanced at Aster twice, shrugged his head, and felt a little inferior. How could such a beautiful girl like herself as a nerd?

Every time Aster talks to herself, she always seems to deliberately keep a certain distance. Even though she was smiling, she didn't feel any closeness. Maybe this man is not the type that people like at all. What she loves should be the leader of the Sword Alliance, Heavenly Sword.

As soon as he thought of this, Jiang Ziyao felt an indescribable frustration in his heart.

The goddess is not something you want to chase, you can chase if you want to. No matter how many spare tires dig out their hearts and lungs, they can't get back the smile of the goddess. Toad, don't be delusional.

"Alright, don't be listless, cheer me up. Elder Stardust patted Jiang Ziyao's shoulder vigorously and lowered his voice, "A man can't show cowardice in front of the woman he likes." ”

Jiang Ziyao nodded silently.

Elder Stardust said, "You have performed very well in the past three days. Proud of you. I've done a good job of you, so let's rest - I want to say that, but I agreed with you before. After you get out of the Ginseng Beast Forest, I will teach you a top-level assassin technique. So at least you have to learn it first, and then it's not too late to rest. ”

Speaking of this, Elder Stardust suddenly smiled and said to Jin Xuan, "Xiaolongbao, I'm sorry, I have to take this kid away first. ”

"Whatever, hum!" Jin Xuan pouted angrily, "I'm not rare." Better take him farther away and never come back!"

Elder Stardust held his chin in embarrassment and said, "That's not going to happen. If he doesn't come back, how will you spend the rest of your life? Oh no, how will you spend the lower half of your body?"

"Elder Stardust, you are disrespectful to the elderly!" Jin Xuan, whose little face was flushed, pulled Aster, "Hmph, ignore you!"

Watching them leave with a smile, Elder Stardust patted Jiang Ziyao's head and said, "See, right?" You stupid boy, learn more in the future. Otherwise, you'll have to live with your hands for the rest of your life. ”

"Huh, what do you mean?" Jiang Ziyao looked at Elder Stardust in surprise, "Hands have grown on me since birth. Of course I'll live with them for the rest of my life. ”

The corners of Elder Stardust's eyes twitched, and he sighed helplessly, "You are destined to be lonely for a lifetime." ”

Jiang Ziyao blinked in confusion: "Why can't I understand what you're talking about......"

"Don't pretend to be stupid for me!" Elder Stardust knocked on Jiang Ziyao's head, "Let's go, let's go back to the Elders' House first." ”

"Yes. Jiang Ziyao hung his head and followed behind Elder Stardust. I muttered in my heart.

What does it mean to live with your hands for the rest of your life? Why can't you catch up with a girl, so you have to live with your hands for the rest of your life? It seems that neither the Analects nor Mencius have said this. Is it only in the "Siku Quanshu"?

Sure enough, his knowledge is not broad enough. I still can't read enough books. There's no end to learning...... In the past few years, he has focused on assassin cultivation, neglected his knowledge, and has become more and more unable to keep up with the trend of the times. It seems that in addition to cultivation, you also need to study.

......

Back at the residence of the House of Elders, Elder Stardust closed the doors and windows and said to Jiang Ziyao, "Ziyao, do you know what your own weaknesses are?"

"The lack of true qi is my biggest weakness. Jiang Ziyao replied without thinking.

"Well, that's right. An Assassin, especially a top-tier Assassin, was often outnumbered. If your side is at a disadvantage, the top Assassins will have to shoulder the burden of turning the tide of battle. So it's hard for a top-tier assassin to beat the Blitzkrieg. More often than not, it's a protracted war. This requires that the amount of true qi must be sufficient. Otherwise, you will fall into passivity and be unsustainable. ”

"Teacher, you're right. Jiang Ziyao has a deep understanding of this point in the ginseng forest. The reason why he was able to win more with less and compete with the Heaven and Earth Alliance was more dependent on unexpected blitzkrieg. If you fight a protracted battle face-to-face, the odds of victory are less than one percent.

The problem of insufficient true qi has always plagued him.

Elder Stardust nodded and said, "I should have said that the assassin's cultivation system is three things: exercises, killing techniques, and divine seals. Killing skills, you have learned the Donghuang Sword Technique. I'm not going to teach you new Assassin skills just yet. But the exercises must be passed on to you now. ”

With that, Elder Stardust took out a slightly old book from his wide sleeved robe and handed it to Jiang Ziyao.

Taking the scroll, Jiang Ziyao saw the five big characters on the cover, and his eyes suddenly lit up: "Nine Turns Yang Divine Skill! This, this...... Teacher, where did you find it?"

Elder Stardust smiled mysteriously, "Confidential." Don't ask where you came. In my opinion, it's the best assassin technique for you. It's the real thing. The content in it, every word is true, and there is absolutely no falsehood. ”

Jiang Ziyao turned the pages of the book excitedly. Fingers trembled. The Nine Turning Yang Divine Skills, which had been lost for three hundred years, the top-level assassin skills that Xia Yi had cultivated back then, were now actually in his hands!

After skimming through the content, Jiang Ziyao felt that the above was the truth, very similar to that. But why would Elder Stardust know that this was the most suitable assassin technique for him Jiang Ziyao?

And the time when he gave him the Divine Fire Emperor Sword before, it can't be a coincidence. Elder Stardust must have some kind of relationship with the Yi God Clan!

Jiang Ziyao looked at Elder Stardust and asked vigilantly, "Teacher, are you...... Who are you?"

"I'm sorry about my identity, but I can't confess to you right now. Because that will bring me endless evil. Especially the Moon God Palace, I don't want to offend them, at least not now. But I promise that when the time comes, I will be open to you. All you need to know is that I really want to train you to be a top-tier assassin. Of course, if you don't want to continue learning with me because of this, then I won't force it. After all, someone like me who doesn't want to reveal his identity will always make you feel uneasy. ”

"No, I'm willing to continue learning from you. Jiang Ziyao thought about it for a while and quickly made a choice.

"Oh?" Elder Stardust was a little surprised by this.

Jiang Ziyao said: "With your skills, if you want to be unfavorable to me, you will already make a move." Why take me as an apprentice and go to great lengths to train me?The most important thing is that you may be the only one in this world who can help me become the best assassin in the world. I have no reason to miss such an opportunity. In order to gain power, I am willing to believe in you!"

Elder Stardust was surprised, "That's amazing. You're a little sluggish emotionally, but you're very sharp in other ways. I have to commend you for making a wise choice. ”

Jiang Ziyao's expression darkened: "If I were five years ago, I might not think so." It was my circumstances that forced me to be like this. ”

Elder Stardust sighed lightly, "As your teacher, I have to give you a piece of advice. In front of people, it's best to hide your keen side and continue to pretend to be stupid. Stupid nerd, a good disguise. Remember, the Assassin only shows his fangs the moment he assassinates his target. Until then, it will be well hidden. ”

Jiang Ziyao nodded solemnly: "I wrote it down." ”

Elder Stardust looked at the backpack behind Jiang Ziyao and said, "First take out the Yuan Spirit Ginseng you have collected in the past three days." I'm going to refine some Qi Booster for you. ”

"Disperse?" Jiang Ziyao looked at Elder Stardust in surprise.

This elixir can increase the amount of true qi to assassins or martial artists who cultivate true qi, and it is a very expensive item. But what Jiang Ziyao was surprised by was not this, but the word "refining" that Elder Xingchen said.

In the Yantian Continent, those who can refine pills are called alchemists. This is the noblest profession on this continent.

They were able to refine some special elixirs, which were of great help to the strength of assassins and warriors. And the assassins and warriors are the objects of cultivation in various countries. Therefore, the emperors and kings of various countries will naturally try their best to win over alchemists.

An Assassin with the help of an alchemist would most likely become a top-tier Assassin. If a sect has an alchemist, then the overall strength of the sect will be significantly improved. If a country gets an alchemist, it can make its national strength flourish!

The important role of alchemists is self-evident.

In addition, in addition to refining those medicines that could help Assassins and warriors improve their strength, alchemists could also refine many other pills.

For example, the antidote pill, the hemostatic pill, and the pill to restore true qi...... Even the elixir that prolongs life can be refined by a clever alchemist.

Many royalty and nobles loved this kind of "immortality" elixir. They want to live a long life, stay young forever, and enjoy life all the time. Therefore, many rich people, at the cost of blood, also want to obtain this kind of rare elixir from the hands of alchemists.

In short, the entire Yantian Continent is indispensable for alchemists, whether it is a country or an individual. People's fanatical pursuit of alchemists has also led to the increasing nobility of the profession of alchemists.

Unfortunately, not everyone can become an alchemist. Because the conditions for becoming an alchemist are more demanding. One of the conditions is that you must have "telekinesis".

Mental power can not only help alchemists sense rare medicinal materials, but also play an important role in alchemy. If you don't have telekinesis, you can't control the heat and refine a qualified pill.

But mental power is not something that can be obtained through acquired cultivation, but a kind of innate power. At birth, it was already decided. If there is, there is, and if there is none, there is none. There is no reason at all.

This important factor restricts the number of alchemists. People who have telekinesis are, after all, a minority. The so-called scarcity is expensive. This is one of the reasons why alchemists are so precious.

It was precisely because of this that Jiang Ziyao was surprised when he heard that Elder Stardust was going to refine the pill himself.

"Teacher, is it ...... Are you still an alchemist?" After being stunned for a long time, Jiang Ziyao looked at his teacher in surprise and respect, and asked the doubts in his heart.
