Chapter XXIV

"Why did you choose me to be your servant?"

Li Shang was in the fugue, and a clear and gentle female voice sounded in his ears, the timbre was not particularly crisp, but it was like a clear spring gliding, and it was very comfortable to listen to.

came back to his senses and looked at the girl's expression that was finally serious. Li Shang, who originally wanted to blow up his hair again, also seriously recalled his original simple and direct thoughts, and then said: "I heard your music, and I feel that the sound seems to contain a lot of things, which is fascinating, and after I came back, I naturally broke through to the third layer of qi refining that night." A strong thought flashed through my mind: I have to be my servant! ”

"That's it?" Xiao Jiu was surprised.

"Then what do you want?" Li Shang looked at Xiao Jiu's questioning expression, and felt that she didn't believe in herself, and she wanted to blow up her hair a little again. But in the past month, I have been stimulated by Xiao Jiu to run around in the family, but in the end I have learned something and know that fried hair is not a good thing.

Of course, he only admits that only when facing this bad servant in front of him makes him feel like blowing up his hair all the time, he is the most noble and proud young master in the family in front of others, everyone respects him and spoils her, he won't even have the opportunity to blow up his hair!

"Then do you know that what you gave up was a servant who could protect you and cultivated up to the sixth level of Qi refining?" This information was also gathered during the month of running around.

In fact, Li Shang didn't understand these things at all before, but in the past month, many of the children of the Li family who were not used to his other side branches had openly or secretly brought their servants who were much higher than Xiao Jiu to show off in front of him, revealing a look that seemed to despise his servants as mortals.

However, whenever his heart rises annoyed and overwhelmed, the girl in front of him always has a way to help him win a game.

For example, there was a child in the old family of the second family who was in his twenties, and he only had the cultivation of the third layer of qi refining, but he brought a servant of the third layer of qi refining to hang in front of him, which was full of contempt.

He was very angry at the time, and he didn't know what to do.

As a result, the girl in front of him said to him: "Young master, the young patriarch chose me, a mortal, to be a servant because he knows that you are a talent who can provoke the pillars of the family, and it is to give you the opportunity to be tempered in your growth, not to send someone to protect you and make you a flower in a greenhouse, unable to withstand the wind and rain!"

He remembered that when the kid heard this, his face turned blue and white for a while, and his eyes stared at Xiao Jiu with a faint look, as if he was going to eat her. As a result, she was frightened by her sentence "I heard that the spiritual sense of the monks in the foundation building period is strong, and the young patriarch loves our young master so much, I don't know if he is also paying attention to us with his spiritual sense, I think that if I see that my predecessors are friendly with our young master, the young patriarch will be very satisfied" was so frightened that he fled with his servants.

But every time this girl helped him win back a game, she told him behind her back that strength is really important, and he has to cultivate hard to improve his cultivation, as if the person who spoke just now was not her.

If the next time they encountered the same kind of trouble, he would have to deal with it himself, and if he was annoyed again, he would see the girl's sarcastic and meaningful eyes. There will be a hard breath in his heart for no reason, pressing him and never losing the battle!

So one thing after another, in the past month, he has definitely been living in dire straits!

Li Shang saw that the girl in front of him was still staring at him, and replied viciously: "So, you have to give me diligent cultivation, don't hold me back!" ”

Xiao Jiu looked at his pretended fierce expression, and it was not difficult to see the importance he subconsciously revealed to his servant. So he didn't care about the ducks on the table, just leaned on the edge of the table, his posture was lazy, and he said idly: "But I still have the three spiritual roots of water, wood and earth!" ”

The implication is that this kind of three-spirit root cultivation is slow, and it has no attack power.

Li Shang was so excited by her appearance that his chest was on fire and wanted to rush out again!

It was not easy to suppress the anger, groaned for a while, raised his legs and walked out of the door.

After going out, he turned around, and saw that the girl was not moved at all, and he was about to fiddle with the duck again, so he said in a deep voice: "Don't play, come with me!" ”

Xiao Jiu followed Li Shang to the gate of the small building, watched Li Shang push the door open, and then took out a jade plaque and threw it forward. Xiao Jiu saw an invisible barrier once again, drawing ripples and spreading out, forming an opening that only allowed one person to pass through.

She followed Li Shang, who had received the jade plaque from the air, into the room through the opening, but her attention did not leave, only to see that the opening closed again after they entered, and finally disappeared into invisibility.

She remembered that the last time Li Shang taught her to read and write, there was no such barrier!

Li Shang saw Xiao Jiu staring at the place where the barrier disappeared, so he explained: "This is the protective formation that my grandfather arranged for me, which can be closed and opened, and I closed it the last time you came in." ”

"Protective formation? What does it do? Xiao Jiu asked suspiciously.

When Li Shang heard Xiao Jiu's question, a sense of pride immediately rose in his heart.

He was tossed by Xiao Jiu enough during this time, and he was so overwhelmed by her "omniscient, omniscient" momentum that he couldn't breathe smoothly.

Now there is finally something she doesn't understand that he understands, not to mention that she still asks so sincerely.

Then he showed off to Xiao Jiu: "My set of protective formations is rare in the entire Li family, and I am the only one who is the only one who wants to say that the children of the Li family below the foundation building period、、、、、、"

Speaking of this, he saw that Xiao Jiu's eyes looked at him with a tendency to develop in the direction of contempt, so he was stunned, and he couldn't show off anymore, so he only said the key points concisely:

"Uh、、、、、、 this set of formations can be soundproofed, it can isolate the snooping of spiritual consciousness cultivators who are as high as the late stage of foundation building, and it can also resist the attacks of monks below the foundation building period."

"Isolate psionic snooping?" Is it that I don't have to feel the sense of prying eyes from time to time in the future?

Here, Li Shang didn't know what Xiao Jiu was thinking.

Hearing Xiao Jiu's question, he said with some excitement: "This set of formations used to be my grandfather's, I heard that he bought it at a great cost from a high-level monk who is proficient in the formation, and the main function is to isolate the prying eyes of the monks of the same period, and the secret effect is very good." Later, my grandfather got a better formation, and just before going to the Ancient Xuankong Cave, he gave me this formation. ”

Xiao Jiu looked at Li Shang's proud eyes, and flattered him honestly: "Your grandfather is really good to you, this is really an excellent formation!" ”

From this set of formations, it can be seen that the head of the Li family loves Li Shang, the Li family's Tianjiao!

He had just entered the gate of Qi refining, he was poor and white, and he didn't dare to think about building a foundation, but when Li Shang was only at the third level of Qi refining, he could have something to compete with the monks in the foundation building period.

So birth does determine a person's future in some ways.

For example, in the previous world, she had the teachings of her grandmother, and she could enter the clan as the daughter of the royal family of the family, and she could also contact many people and things that the villagers could not contact in their lifetime;

Another example is Li Shang in front of him, the single fire spirit root, the father in the foundation building period who loves him to the bone, and the grandfather in the foundation building stage, which is also something that most of the lower-level monks of the Li family can't compare with and can't get in their lifetime.

But Grandma said: The avenue that God has arranged for every cultivator is against fate, which is fair!

Xiao Jiu groaned in his heart, but the words did not stop, and he asked instead, "What are you asking me to come over for?" ”

Li Shangzheng was happy that Xiao Jiu affirmed his formation.

You must know that although the girl in front of her has said a lot of compliments to the people he has come into contact with before, she can always make him half angry, and it must be the first time that she is so sincere as now.

Seeing Xiao Jiu ask him, he directly took out a jade slip and threw it over.

Xiao Jiu took the jade slip, glanced at Li Shang suspiciously, and put it on his forehead, and his consciousness sank into it.

On the far left of the jade slip, the big characters of "Initial Explanation of Talisman Making" are shining.

Xiao Jiu took away the jade slip and asked Li Shang, "Are you going to pass on the Li family's talisman making technique to me?" ”

Li Shang glanced at her, pursed his lips, and pretended to be calm: "This is just a basic talisman making technique, not the essence of the Li family, the essence of the Li family's talisman making technique must be built after the foundation, and the children of the family with high talisman talent can learn it." I'm only refining the third layer of qi, and my father just let me practice the basic runes, and I can occasionally draw first-order low-grade runes! ”

Speaking of the back, a proud face began to appear again.

Xiao Jiu ignored him, put the jade slip on his forehead again, and his consciousness penetrated, and the previous introduction was heartfelt.

It's really just the base rune.

There is a basic introduction to the talisman making technique, followed by the appearance and function of each rune.

Talisman making is a skill of monks, it can be used to assist in battle, especially for a small monk like Xiao Jiu who has no spiritual power to support and cast spells, when facing high-level monks, being able to throw talismans is a large part of his combat power.

It can be said that for Xiao Jiu, who is not strong in attack power, Fu Chip can also become her main attack power.

But talisman making is not simple.

The first-order basic talisman can pose a threat to the monks in the middle stage of qi refining according to their quality;

The second-order basic talismans can pose a threat to monks in the late stage of qi refining according to their different qualities.

And so on, the higher the level of the rune, the more powerful it is.

The basic runes are just simple runes, and although they can be useful in battle, their role is limited.

If the enemy had taken precautions in advance, the results would not have been very good.

Therefore, there is the emergence of combination charms, and the power of combination charms can increase the attack power of the charm chips according to the degree of combination, and also diversify the role of the charms.

But those are the treasures of the various talisman families, and they are not passed on.

Xiao Jiu thought: Maybe it's like the Li family's essence talisman technique.

It's just that those have nothing to do with the current Xiao Jiu. Now she only needs to learn to draw the most basic runes.

The most basic rune is the first-order basic rune, because you only need to be able to draw the rune on the rune paper, and attract the power of the rune paper, rune liquid, and rune pen to form a rune that is equivalent to the attack strength of the spell in the middle of Qi refining.

This is also the basis for learning talismans.

However, this requires a deep understanding of runes, a high degree of proficiency, and the strength and control to wield the rune pen and dip the rune liquid on the rune paper freely.

Because the rune pen, rune liquid, and rune paper are all made of special materials.

The higher the tier, the harder it is to use.

If you wave a first-order rune pen and dip it in the first-order runic liquid to draw a rune on the first-order rune paper, you must have the strength to practice two to three layers of qi.

In addition to the requirements of strength and control, the runes above the second order also require the participation of spiritual power and spiritual power.

The higher the rune chip, the more spiritual power is required to make it, the higher the control requirements, and the stronger the mental power requirements.

And the spiritual power of the monk grows mainly from the breakthrough to the fourth level of qi training, and the beginning of the divine sense.

In addition to these items, it is also required to have a high level of understanding.

and some other requirements that are not carefully stated、、、、、、

Therefore, there are very few high-level talismans in the Five Elements Continent.

First, it takes a lot of time and uninterrupted practice to affect the speed of cultivation, second, it requires a lot of resources - rune paper, rune liquid, and rune pen are not cheap, and third, the higher the requirements for both the spiritual power and the comprehension of the rune master.

Of course, the scarcity of things is expensive, and the higher the value of high-level talismans that can be exchanged、、、、、、
