Volume 1 Small Town Boy Chapter 2 Wild Beasts
Ling Chen's second uncle, named Ling Tianze, is a well-known earth seal master. The so-called seal master, in fact, also has another title - array mage. There are many sub-occupations on the mainland, and this kind of occupation is quite convenient for the life of the public. For example, what alchemists, refiners, and so on. And the sealer is the one who engraves the method and can make all kinds of magical objects. It can be said that any martial arts cultivation is inseparable from the seal master, and the reason for this is the hunting of beasts,
Hunting beasts means that when the martial artist reaches the Yuan Dan realm, he can get a demon beast or spirit beast with the help of the seal master to use as his own body protection origin beast pet.
When the sealer used the formation to trap the beast pet, he directly sealed it. The sealed beast pets can be sold or handed over to the employer, so that the employer can attract the beast pet to the dantian. When the beast pet devours its Yuan Dan, the formation left by the seal master in the body of the beast pet will be activated, and it will become the origin beast pet of the martial artist. And the formation can suppress the beast pet, and the second can use the formation as a medium to convey spiritual power and summon the beast pet to fuse and fight. Therefore, martial cultivation is also called physical cultivation, if your physique does not reach the level of fusion, the power of the beast pet will directly burst the human body. This kind of thing is not uncommon for people. To gain strength, one must be prepared to sacrifice.
And the seal of the seal master is also very particular. Martial cultivation transmits spiritual power through the formation, and the amount of spiritual power conveyed depends on the grade of the sealer. Therefore, ordinary martial cultivators stay in the Yuan Dan Realm for a very long time to raise money to invite high-grade sealers to hunt beasts. After all, for martial cultivators, one more grade is equivalent to a few percent more combat power.
Generally speaking, if you want to become a seal master, you need to gather the yin yuan through constant meditation. When the Yin Yuan is successfully gathered, you will be considered a half-level Seal Master. Why do you want to say that it is a half-human level sealer? It's very simple, Heavenly Tribulation! A word that makes people all over the world fear. It is said that if you want to gain strength, you must be prepared to sacrifice. The catastrophe was successful, and the Yin Yuan was further strengthened. If it is not successful, the light one can give up and cross the catastrophe after the next time he is fully prepared. Seriously, this one doesn't need to be explained.
The corresponding seal master captures the grade of the corresponding beast pet, and there are only three stages of the beast pet: heaven, earth, and man. Each has three grades, lower, medium, and upper. Therefore, printers are very popular professions.
Speaking of which, it is necessary to introduce another mainstream profession: printing and repairing. There are two mainstream professions on the mainland, one is martial arts cultivation and the other is seal cultivation. And the seal repair and the seal master actually have a lot to do with it, but it is not very big. The difference is that Yin Xiu majors in spiritual power and evolves various attack methods through sealing, which is a profession with very strong combat power. And the sealer is mainly used for engraving and making formations. Including all kinds of strange formations, they are all carved out little by little by the sealer, which is very time-consuming and labor-intensive. The Seal Master himself has no combat power, but he can kill people with the carved formation. It's hard to become a seal repairer, and it's even harder to become a seal artist. These are two different professions, and the main difference between the two.
After Ling Chen and the two returned from the academy, they went home separately.
"Second uncle, I'm back. Ling Chen said as soon as he entered the door.
"Well, the rice is in the pot. Under the big tree on the other side of the courtyard, Ling Tianze sat on a stone bench to make tea, and said with a calm expression.
"I'm not busy with this first, when I arrived at the academy today, I heard Master Liu say that there is a method that allows me to enter the Qi Cultivation Realm. Ling Chen said with some excitement. I walked over and poured a cup of tea, and drank it slowly.
"Oh? After Ling Tianze heard this, a glimmer of light flashed in his eyes, and he put down the teacup in his hand and said.
"Liu Shi said that in some big cities, there is an elixir that can directly break through the Qi Cultivation Realm after eating it, maybe I can use the power of the elixir to break through this bottleneck. Ling Chen said excitedly.
After hearing this, Ling Tianze was obviously disappointed in his heart. Just said flatly: "Okay, I'll think of a way." ”
"Okay, then I'll go to dinner first. You're slow. Ling Chen said with a grin.
Looking at Ling Chen in the inner room, Ling Tianze also shook his head helplessly, the majesty of the elders that he had built up with great difficulty was still ridiculed. However, in the blink of an eye, Ling Tianze's face became gloomy. Said to himself: "It's really not that simple, it's better to get there to see it." There's only a little time left...... Alas!" Sighing, Ling Tianze seemed to be a decade old. But soon it was covered up again and continued to taste tea. Of course, Ling Chen didn't know about it.
After a while, a very heroic voice came from outside the door: "Uncle Tianze, it's been a long time!"
A young man in his twenties appeared on the stone table. This man has a broad face, eyes like an eagle, wisdom and brightness, strong muscles puff up his clothes, and he knows that he is extraordinary at a glance.
Ling Tianze was also shocked at first, but when he saw who it was, he also said with a smile: "You kid, are you finally willing to come back to visit my old man?"
"What did Uncle Tianze say? I just went out to pick up a mission, didn't I come to visit you as soon as I came back?" said the young man with a smile.
Ling Chen heard that a guest was coming, and he walked out directly with a big bowl. When he saw this young man, he said with a smile: "Big brother, you haven't been back for months. ”
The 'Brother Liang' that Ling Chen said was named Liang Hanshuo and was an orphan. Ling Tianze saw that he was an upright person, and when he arrived at the Yuan Dan Realm, he helped him hunt a spirit beast of the lower grade of the earth, the Red Tiger King. Because its spiritual power is also a fire attribute, it is quite suitable. Since then, his cultivation has been advancing by leaps and bounds, and it is precisely because of this that Liang Hanshuo has sheltered the Ling family all the way in order to repay his kindness for reconstruction. Otherwise, some ruffians and hooligans in some realms would not be so peaceful, and the Ling family's life would not be so comfortable. After all, the Ground Rank Seal Master didn't have much combat power.
"Oh, Xiaochen! I haven't seen him in months, and I feel like I've gained some weight. Hmmm, the appetite is still so big. Liang Hanshuo saw the big bowl that Ling Chen was holding, and joked with a smile.
"By the way, big brother, do you know what pills can allow me to break through the Qi Cultivation Realm?" Ling Chen suddenly asked Liang Hanshuo. My eldest brother has been walking on the rivers and lakes, he has seen a lot of big scenes, and his horizons have broadened a lot, so he must know about the pill.
"Pill?" Liang Hanshuo also asked in astonishment. Then he said a little strangely: "Xiaochen, you have to remember, there is no shortcut to all the way to practice. Some pills can indeed break through the Qi Cultivation Realm in a short period of time, but they will also cause great side effects, and they will not be beneficial to future cultivation at all. If you really want to take pills to improve your cultivation, I am afraid that your future future will stop here, you know? This Liu Yuan can come up with such a bad idea, the next time Lao Tzu sees him, he must teach him a good lesson. Liang Hanshuo didn't save face for Liu Yuan at all, and directly released cruel words. Such a detrimental method was actually thought up by a mentor for the students, which made people angry when they imagined it.
After hearing Liang Hanshuo's words, Ling Chen was directly stunned. Although he didn't know how precious the pill was, after listening to the description of his eldest brother and Wang Qingyun, although this kind of thing was very good, the side effects were also great. It's really not worth exchanging your future cultivation prospects for a temporary realm. But there are still people who rush to this, which leads to the price of the pill rising. I really don't understand what people in this world think.
Back to reality, Ling Chen suddenly thought of a very serious problem. "Isn't that because I can't step into the Qi Cultivation Realm?" Ling Chen suddenly looked listless like a frosted eggplant.
"Don't be discouraged! The bigger the bottleneck now, the greater the rebound in the future. Maybe after you break through, it's a trivial matter to surpass me in a short period of time. Liang Hanshuo also comforted Ling Chen.
"Big brother, you don't have to fool me, you are already a master of the Xuantian Three Realms, how long will it take me to reach your realm?" Ling Chen said dissatisfiedly.
The so-called Xuantian Three Realms are the three realms of Xuanmeng, Xuanli, and Xuanyi, collectively referred to as the three realms of Xuantian. Corresponding to the outward release, condensation, and stepping of the aura. It is a watershed between the early and middle stages of spiritual practice. And there is another realm in the middle of the Yuandan Realm and the Xuantian Three Realms, which is called the Soul Summoning Realm. As the name suggests, summon spirit beasts to fight. But why is it not a demon beast but a spirit beast? This has to start with the aura. The body of the demon beast is demonic energy, and the body of the spirit beast is indeed aura. The cultivation method of martial arts is to absorb spiritual energy, so the choice of natal beast pet should be a spirit beast, not a demon beast. But it's not that demon beasts can't be natal beast pets, on the contrary, the demon power of demon beasts is much more aggressive than spiritual power. But that's also the case, in the process of the demon beast being incorporated into the dantian, it has to withstand the impact of its demon power is much greater and more dangerous. Therefore, most people raise monsters as pets, not as the mainstream.
"Uh... Hehe..."When Ling Chen uncovered Liang Hanshuo's deceitful words, he could only scratch his head with a dry smile. I thought to myself: It's really hard to deceive children nowadays......
"By the way, Uncle Tianze, I came to you today to discuss something with you. When it came to business, Liang Hanshuo also changed his hippie with Ling Chen, and said to Ling Tianze with a serious face.
Ling Tianze frowned slightly, and said, "Another beast hunting?"
Liang Hanshuo knew that Ling Tianze didn't like trouble, so he also said directly: "Well, Miss Zhuang of the Tanglin Domain needs a beast pet, because of your old fame, I also ask me to invite you, I hope you can make a move, and the price is the market price." But people said, if you make a move, you can add 30%. Liang Hanshuo said.
After hearing this, Ling Tianze hesitated slightly before continuing: "Tell me about the general situation." ”
Liang Hanshuo knew that Ling Tianze had agreed, so he continued: "What I want to capture is a water blue butterfly of the lower grade of the ground level, and its strength is probably in the soul gathering stage, so there is no difficulty in capturing it. But there are two Storm Blood Apes, whose strength is in the middle stage of the Myojin, and one Ape King, whose strength is in the early stage of the Transformation Realm, is a little difficult to deal with, but as long as you are careful, there is no problem. But it is worth mentioning that the location of this beast hunt is in the Broken Sky Mountain Range, which is a hundred miles away from Wanyuan Town. ”
Ling Tianze also frowned after hearing this, and said, "No wonder it is indeed a bit risky to add three percent." I've taken this mission, so let's divide it up in the same way, and we'll leave tomorrow. ”
Liang Hanshuo also hurried to hear this: "Uncle Tianze, this can't be helped." People are looking at your face to add 30%, how can you not want it?" Ling Tianze and Liang Hanshuo have not cooperated once or twice, they have all planned dividends. Ling Tianze only needs to be thirty percent, and the material of the formation is Liang Han. This kind of plan is completely because of the relationship between people, otherwise some printers will have to go to six or seven percent, and the material cost has to be prepared by themselves. The remaining three or four are one point for one team, and there is not much left for everyone. And you can't say that others are hacked, after all, they help you complete half of the task. Therefore, Wu Xiu is also a guy who helps people to do coolies.
"This time the risk is a little bigger, it's better if you have a little more team, after all, everyone still has to support their families, in case there is a mistake, it can be regarded as a settling-in fee!" Ling Tianze said.
Liang Hanshuo couldn't shirk it, so he could only agree.
Ling Chen saw that they had finished talking about business, so he also came over and asked, "Brother Liang, can I also do this mission?" Ling Chen asked tentatively.
This mission is very risky, and you will be troublesome if you go. Ling Tianze said with a straight face.
Liang Hanshuo saw that Ling Chen really wanted to go, so he said to Ling Tianze: "Uncle Tianze, anyway, Xiaochen is bored at home, and the academy is completely in name, so it's better to go out with us this time to see each other for a long time." Besides, with me to protect Chen'er's safety, aren't you still at ease?"
Ling Tianze looked at Liang Hanshuo, then at Ling Chen, and finally said, "After arriving at the Broken Heaven Mountain Range, I must follow your Brother Liang closely, and you are not allowed to run around, you know?" Ling Tianze said solemnly.
"Got it! I still cherish my little life very much" Ling Chen also knew the seriousness of the matter, and nodded very cooperatively.
"You kid!" Ling Tianze scolded with a smile, "Clean up, we'll hit the road tomorrow." ”
"Okay!" Ling Chen said happily.
