Chapter 65: The Third Seal
After drinking a whole bottle of Hecong Elixir, Ning Yue grinned and screamed miserably, and a strong bitter taste that was enough to make people unconscious filled his entire mouth, spreading from the tip of his tongue to the depths. ???
"Drink it slowly, you can drink a whole bottle of something so bitter at once, without adding sugar, you are the first one I have ever seen." β
On the side, Xiao Yin's face twitched a few times, and she hurriedly handed out a glass of water.
Grunt.
After taking the water cup and drinking it directly to the bottom, this time, Ning Yue's face finally improved, and when he put down the cup, he seemed to have a sense of relief, and exhaled a long breath.
Chang Xuanxuan, who was sitting opposite him, was stirring the liquid mixed with sugar, and he was not in a hurry to drink it directly in one go.
Combined condensation, it can be regarded as a medium level of elixir, which is used to quickly restore the spiritual energy in the body after consuming too much, and re-condense the Xuan power, the effect is very obvious, as long as the experienced spirit awakening realm powerhouse has the conditions, he will definitely carry some with him. If there is a downside, it is that it is too bitter, unimaginably bitter, and you may not feel the taste of anything you eat for a few days after drinking a small glass.
However, the effect is really good......
"I've only heard of Hecong Powder before, and I've never really tasted it, if I had known that it was so bitter, I wouldn't have dared to do that. Ning Yue wailed with a sad face, and handed the cup back to Xiao Yin.
"One more drink. β
Liu frowned slightly, Xiao Yin was obviously a little dissatisfied with being called, but she still helped Ning Yue refill a glass of water and handed it back, muttering softly: "Even if you have only heard of it, you should know that this thing is very bitter, right?"
First drank a whole glass of water, and then, Ning Yue wiped his mouth before replying, "Yes, I heard it." However, in the past, in the sect, I drank a lot of boiled herbs, and there were also a lot of bitter ones, and I thought I should endure it. Moreover, at the beginning, the master also specially explained that all things have the principle of mutual reciprocity, especially all kinds of elixirs, which have their own spirituality, do not mix other things for the sake of a momentary refreshment, and at the same time change the taste, it is likely that the effect of the medicine will also become weaker, or even disappear. β
"That's true, but if there's a next time, will you add sugar or not?"
After that, Chang Xuanxuan also frowned and drank his condensation, and the next moment, his face changed suddenly, and he grinned.
"Slightly...... Add a little bit of it. Ning Yue smiled bitterly, then stood up and moved his body, fortunately, he did not suffer any direct trauma, the most important thing was his own consumption.
The first type of Dark Xuan was already overdrawn, and this time he used the second type of thousand crumbs, which naturally made it even worse. If it weren't for the fear that his body might not be able to hold on, he wouldn't have drunk the whole bottle in one go.
"By the way, how well you have completed your mission, you didn't tell me when you patronized and ran before. β
Xiao Yin also handed Chang Xuanxuan a glass of water, and then poured herself a glass, just taking a sip.
The previous final evacuation went smoothly, she only shot a few short arrows to force back the pursuers, naturally there was not much consumption, and there was no need to take elixir.
"If the task is not completed, I will turn back halfway, and the boss will not dismantle me? Besides, you even doubt that I will not be able to complete the task?" Chang Xuanxuan shook his head and sighed again and again, looking unhappy.
"It's not that I'm afraid that you will pretend to be public and private, so I ran in and had a good time, and I took Ning Yue with me. Moreover, the failure of this mission is nothing to you, but for Ning Yue, I'm afraid it's ......"
Speaking of this, Xiao Yin suddenly looked at Ning Yue's gaze towards her, a little surprised inside, but also a little grateful and relieved.
Seeing this, she immediately twisted her face to the other side and hummed, "Don't think nonsense, I'm not worried about you." It's just that the red wolf hasn't been tested like this for a long time, and if you succeed, the next qualification will definitely be me. β
"Is that really the case?"
Chang Xuanxuan smiled a little playfully, and when Xian Xiaoyin glared angrily, he hurriedly drank water, pretending to be fine.
"Actually, I'm also a little curious, although I didn't see the last scene, but I think it's ...... That one move collides, and you lose. If that's the case, how could you possibly kill itβno, it's not yours. β
Suddenly, Ning Yue recalled that when she first saw the petite figure, she looked down coldly at Guo Mingtong who was begging for help, and the murderous aura in her eyes was actually not aimed at him and Chang Xuanxuan.
Chang Xuanxuan nodded and said, "That's right, it's her hand." Moreover, he also took away something from Guo Mingtong's body. Her strength is very strange, and judging by her combat skills, she must have been trained in special assassination. Moreover, she was better than me, and even if I was at the top of my game, I couldn't beat her. β
"Who are you talking about? Actually, there is an opponent like Xuan Xuan who can bow down?" Xiao Yin looked inexplicable, because she had been hiding in the shadows of the corner of the street, she didn't know about the battle on the eaves before.
"I don't know who she is, there are killers of such strength in the Snow Dragon Empire, it stands to reason that the Red Wolf's intelligence system should not be missing. Unless, she is not from the Snow Dragon Empire and the surrounding vassal countries. Or maybe she's from that place......"
In the end, Chang Xuanxuan's face was a lot gloomy, and the hand holding the porcelain cup slowly strengthened, and even made a sound of shattering and cracking.
......
"Uh-huh...... It's delicious, but unfortunately there are too few. β
Reluctantly spit out the last bite of bone slag, a petite girl sitting on the dark street sighed helplessly, light brown long, but there was a sadness in the beautiful pair of big eyes.
"There are so many delicious foods on the table, why can't you give me more. This time, people have worked hard. β
With another sigh, she rubbed her left hand, and there was a scorch wound on the back of her hand, which was still fresh. The blue silver thunder wolf who forcibly boxed Chang Xuanxuan before, she was not really extremely easy.
Immediately afterwards, the girl shook her head vigorously, and finally buried her face in her knees while holding her head, and muttered: "No, you must not think of such words against him, otherwise, the goal that I am about to achieve will be far away from me." As long as I have done that number of tasks, I am free and can go wherever I want...... But until then, where are you going to sleep tonight? As long as you fall asleep, you won't be hungry for a while. Uh, this city, so strange......"
Walking down the long, dimly lit street with her arms crossed and her head bowed, the girl walked aimlessly, the cold walls and doors and windows on both sides seemed to reject her. Such a big city, thousands of houses, but there is no place to accommodate her.
Finally, in a deserted corner, she saw a nest of wild cats huddled together, a simple nest of straw collected from all over the place. Suddenly, a flash of joy flashed in the girl's eyes, and she trotted up to them and squatted down, and said with a smile: "Otherwise, I will sleep with you tonight." β
Seeing a stranger approaching, the mother wildcat instinctively protected the three kittens under her. However, it soon lost its vigilance, and seemed to recognize that the girl was of the same kind, and gave a friendly soft.
"Meowβ"
Smiling and nodding, the girl lay on the straw on one side and curled up in a ball, clinging to the litter of wild cats and closing her eyes.
"Good night, meowβ"
......
The void sky is still the weird red in his memory, Ning Yue is used to it, and strode towards the vague shadow standing next to the ancient sword in the distance, and smiled knowingly: "The power of the newly unlocked seal awakening, the second type of thousand crumbs, should be able to disintegrate all defenses, right?"
"Everything in the world is made up of elements, and so is defense. The power of a thousand chips is to shatter and peel off every element of the target's construction, turning it into flying debris. If the master's forces have a sufficient advantage, it is indeed possible to ignore all defenses. But in that case, even if you don't use a thousand crumbs, the master can still win. β
The sword spirit shook his head, and the moment he turned around, the ancient sword was already pulled out, and his movements were the same as last time, kneeling down on one knee and holding the sword in both hands, and handing it to Ning Yue.
On the smooth earth that was left of her, dark red runes suddenly reappeared, and a bloody lotus flower bloomed, and twelve petals of different sizes were already lit up in two, flashing with a scarlet light that was not colored.
On one side, the third piece was also flickering slightly, but the light was much dimmer.
Holding the hilt of the sword in his hand, Ning Yue nodded and understood: "I understand, the power of a thousand crumbs is to disintegrate part of the defense, depending on the difference in strength between the two sides." It's like burning something with fire, and it takes different times for it to be melted and scorched. Even, there are some that can't be burned through. β
The sword spirit still knelt on the ground and replied softly: "It is very appropriate for the master to use fire as a metaphor, the power of a thousand crumbs is different from instantaneous, it is not a one-time explosion attack, it can also continue to slash, gradually eat away at the opponent's defense, and completely disintegrate it little by little." However, the consumption is just as huge, and it continues to move, and the consumption is getting bigger and bigger. If forced to do so, it is better for the owner not to make such a choice. β
"Of course. β
Ning Yue caressed Di Xuan's cold blade, and a faint chill entered his fingers, which was a little different from the feeling when he touched it in the real world. He couldn't say what it was.
"I remember you said that as long as you enter the Spirit Awakening Realm, the third seal may also be lifted?"
Hearing this, the sword spirit lowered his head, and the corners of his mouth pulled slightly: "Not bad." However, at present, the second seal has just been unlocked, and there is naturally still a long way to go to the next level. Moreover, the master is only in the initial stage of the awakening realm. β
"Of course, I know this, but I just want to know what it takes to awaken the power of the third form. Faintly, I had a foreboding feeling that I would soon face a great crisis and that more strength would be needed. β
Slowly closing his eyes, Ning Yue himself was not sure about these words, but after tonight, he always felt in his mind that many things he had experienced during this time seemed to be unrelated on the surface, but in fact it seemed that there was a wireless cable to wear them all. And behind that, there is an invisible giant hand of control.
The enemy in the future is destined to become more and more difficult to deal with.
"Yes, of course. β
The corners of the sword spirit's mouth curled up a little more, and he continued to reply: "The easiest way is naturally to absorb other powers, the spiritual power of various lives. High-grade elixir, demonic beast essence blood, and even spiritual weapon divine weapons!"
