Chapter 18: A Day of Adjustment
Hearing Yuqing's decision, Hu Tian was also relieved, although he didn't use too much strength in the competition with Qingfeng just now, but in order to finally compete with Ding Ming, he felt that it was better to adjust, and this day's truce time was indeed very beneficial to him.
And Qingyu hasn't woken up yet, it seems that he is also very weak, although in Hu Tian's heart for a while, the competition between him and Qingyu is estimated to be the meaning, but now Qingyu's state is still not suitable for going on stage, and he can't even admit defeat without going on stage, so it seems too unserious for this competition.
In the end, Hu Tian picked up Qingyu, accompanied by Qingfeng, and returned to the cave mansion in the east courtyard together, and walked into the cave, Hu Tian helped Qingyu lean on the bed, and Qingyu still showed no signs of waking up.
Seeing that Qingyu didn't wake up, Hu Tian told Qingfeng about his plan.
"Are you sure you want to compete with Ding Ming head-on? Qingfeng couldn't help but ask worriedly when he heard Hu Tian's plan.
"Senior brother, don't worry, I won't act recklessly, although I haven't really reached the soul master, but I still have some means to press the bottom of the box, although I don't dare to say that I will definitely be able to defeat Ding Ming, but I won't let him get the qualification to go to Nanming so easily"
Hu Tian just said that he had some means, but he didn't say that his current strength should be no less than Ding Ming, at least if he used soul power, the formation shown by Qingfeng was still not enough.
Hu Tian didn't tell the truth, first, he didn't want to become too alternative in his senior brother's heart, and second, he was afraid that if he said that his strength might be higher than Qingfeng, he was afraid that his intersection with him would become unnatural in the future, although this was just some small thoughts in his own heart, if Qingfeng knew that his strength was very high, he would most likely be happy for him, but he still didn't say it at this time, because there was no need for this.
Qingfeng saw that Hu Tian had a certain amount of confidence, and he couldn't help but remind with some worry: "Senior brother must be careful if he confronts Ding Ming in the end, it is very likely that he has not shown all his strength when he competes with Qingyu, his fire attack has the blessing of the Red Flame Fruit, and he already has the level of the third order of the soul master, which should not be underestimated."
Hu Tian looked at Qingfeng, suddenly smiled, and said, "Senior brother is a little nagging today, just like my grandmother back then, hahaha"
Qingfeng, who was originally in a heavy mood, heard Hu Tian say this, and smiled with a little embarrassment on his face, "Yes, I don't feel it myself, maybe it's because I saw that my junior sister was injured, so I'm also afraid that you will be injured by Ding Ming." ”
Hu Tian's heart warmed at this time, he also knew that Qingfeng Qingyu and the master were all orphans, without a father or mother, or even a relative, so they attached great importance to family affection, and lived with the two of them for more than four years, and he also slowly realized that the two took care of him, and he had regarded the two as the closest people in the world.
"Don't worry, senior brother, if I lose the enemy, I will admit defeat, although it is a little embarrassing, but at least it will not be injured" Hu Tian knew that Qingfeng, as a senior brother, had always taken care of himself and Qingyu as the most important thing, so he comforted him, lest he worry too much.
Although he said this to Qingfeng on the surface, he was determined to use all his strength to teach Ding Ming a lesson, not only for himself, but also for Xiaoyu, after all, Xiaoyu was injured by Ding Ming, he knew that Qingyu and Ding Ming had already used all their strength when they were fighting, so really Qingyu, Hu Tian saw it for the first time, for Qingyu, the competition may only be one of the reasons, and the most important thing should be that she wants to vent her anger.
Thinking of this, Hu Tian looked at Qingyu, she was leaning on the side of the bed at this time, still asleep, and even the corners of her mouth were still a trace of crystal, maybe no one except Qingfeng and herself had ever seen such Qingyu.
"Senior brother, I don't have anything to tell you now, I can only wait for your good news tomorrow, and when the competition is over, I will inform you and Qingyu of some of my understanding of the rune formation, in case of emergency"
"That's really good, I only have a lot of strength now, if I can learn a little bit about the formation, maybe it can come in handy in the future."
Qingfeng was also very relieved to hear that Hu Tian was so active in learning the formation, and then looked at Qingyu again, and said: "This is natural, let's talk about these things after the competition, I plan to give Xiaoyu some of my soul strength later, so that she can recover sooner." ”
Seeing Qingfeng's distressed expression when he looked at Qingyu, he wanted to improve his strength even more, so that he could beat Ding Ming and avenge Qingyu's injury, and at the same time, he really knew that Qingfeng regarded him and Qingyu as his brother and sister.
When Hu Tiangang entered the sect, he always thought that Qingfeng Qingyu was a pair of brothers and sisters, but later learned that both of them were orphans picked up by Kong Tianzhang many years ago, and these two people also had new names after they entered the sect with him, all with the surname Kong, Kong Qingfeng and Kong Qingyu were both names given by the master.
Now Hu Tianzhen has a feeling that Qingfeng is like a chattering old mother, worried about the juniors and protecting the juniors.
Thinking of this, Hu Tian smiled again, he felt that his fate was really good, and after his grandmother left, he could meet these two people.
People say that the world of cultivators is dangerous and abnormal, and everyone kills people and goods in order to improve their strength, and they do not compromise their means, but they have met such two people who treat themselves sincerely.
Hu Tian couldn't help but secretly made up his mind in his heart, "Qingfeng and Qingyu are my counterscales, no matter who they are, touching them is like peeling their skin and cramping themselves, and they will be killed." ”
"Senior brother, you can give Xiao Yudu soul power here, I also have to go out to understand my cultivation, see if I can make a breakthrough this night, and also raise some winning chips for tomorrow's battle." ”
After speaking, Hu Tian glanced at Qingyu, who was still sleeping, and walked out of the cave.
After Hu Tian walked out of the cave, he looked up at the sky in the distance, the sky was already setting, and the night was coming soon, he had already thought about it when he left just now, he wanted to take advantage of this night to go to Tianchi to see, there was a strong soul power for himself to absorb, although the soul power mixed after absorbing the soul power could not grow, but he also knew that this situation could only be beneficial to himself and not harmful.
This time to go to Tianchi, Hu Tian didn't take a lot of time, the phoenix wings only took a few clicks to bring themselves to the gate leading to Tianchi, and when he came to the gate, Hu Tian waited for a while, and sure enough, he saw Elder Wu guarding the door come to his eyes.
After seeing Elder Wu, Hu Tian said politely: "Elder Wu, junior Hu Tian wants to go to Tianchi to cultivate for one night, but I don't know if it is feasible. ”
Today should be the cultivation time of the West Courtyard according to the regulations, and the fact that the East Courtyard has been cultivating with the West Courtyard is also something that the head of Yuqing agrees to, but in the past two days, due to the competition, no one has come here to cultivate, so Hu Tian is not sure if he can enter.
"Boy, you did quite well today, but you shouldn't have really become a soul master yet" Elder Wu heard that Hu Tian wanted to go in to cultivate, and he didn't rush to answer whether it was okay or not, but mentioned to him about the daytime competition.
Hearing Elder Wu's words, Hu Tian was very strange, this old man who usually didn't like to talk very much, always gave people a cold feeling, why did he suddenly ask about himself today.
Strange is strange, for the elder's question, Hu Tian should still answer politely, so he said: "Elder Wu's cultivation is profound, so he can naturally see that the junior is not a soul master, and the junior is just lucky in the daytime competition." ”
"I can see that your specialty is strength, although you don't have soul skills, but you can try to gather soul power in your fists, so that you can increase your power"
Hearing this, Hu Tian said in his heart: "I know this myself, if I can say something useful, it would be great." ”
Elder Wu on the opposite side saw that Hu Tian did not speak, as if he knew what Hu Tian was thinking, and continued: "The soul power gathered in the fist can not only increase the soul power, you can also try to condense and compress it, if you use it well, you can even control the compressed soul power into the shape of various weapons, but it is a special soul power that consumes the soul pool, and it is very likely that the soul power will be overdrawn before the competition is over." ”
After listening to Elder Wu's words, Hu Tian was so excited that he didn't know what to say, because Elder Wu's simple advice was too useful for himself today, he didn't expect that today's trip to the soul pool would be able to have such a harvest, he never thought that the soul power could be used like this, thinking of this, Hu Tian raised his head and looked at Elder Wu, with respect on his face, he didn't know why this old man helped him, but his huge harvest was a fact.
"Thank you seniors for your advice, the juniors have gained a lot" After saying that, Hu Tian gave a deep bow to Elder Wu.
"It's nothing, this is just some of the small tricks I used when I didn't melt my soul back then, by the way, you can also try to release soul power, this is just a conjecture of mine back then, I tried it before, but I didn't release it until the soul power was consumed. ”
Hu Tian saluted Elder Wu again, and was about to thank him, but Elder Wu disappeared, and the gate of Tianchi had already opened.
Hu Tian looked around, but he didn't see Elder Wu's figure, so he said to the surroundings: "Thank you for your guidance today, and you will be rewarded in the future." After finishing speaking, he walked straight to the Tianchi inside the door.
