Chapter 7: Nebula Outside the List (Part 2)
Back in the bamboo courtyard, he took the Blood Condensation Pill, and felt that his qi and blood were surging, and he was rushing.
He hurriedly sat down cross-legged, resting like an old ape, and storing his own qi, blood and essence. With his control, the qi and blood gradually stabilized, slowly flowing in the blood, but it was obviously a little more powerful than before.
"The second layer of the quenching body is complete, and in another month, I will impact the third layer of the quenching body!"
Xiao Nan checked the progress of the cultivation and smiled happily. The effect of the pill is indeed very obvious, but it is a pity that it is too expensive.
He opened the ancient scroll he had picked up from the monkey Si'er, and sketched a picture of a phoenix bathing in fire with rough lines, and he couldn't see the clues.
"Goo!" Xiao Wanxiao suddenly woke up from her sleep and called with her little head tilted.
"Xiaobai, do you want this scroll?" Xiao Nan raised it and shook it twice, a little curious. Xiao Wanxiao looked at the ancient scroll.
He placed the fire picture in front of the little one's nest, causing the little white to flutter and flutter up. It rolled around, curled up in the scroll, and narrowed its eyes in pleasure.
"It seems that this scroll has an unknown effect on birds, such as attraction and nourishment...... Let's use it as a bed sheet for Xiaobai for the time being. β
Xiao Nan shook his head and continued to take out the dead branches to study. This withered branch can make the natal spirit Gu take the initiative to appear and ask for it, it must be some kind of treasure.
This dead branch is about half an arm's length, dark in color, and the ends are charred black, as if it has been burned by lightning and fire. There are three forks on it, and the bare epidermis is black.
As soon as he played, he immediately felt a slight tremor all over his body, and the sea was churning. The Natal Spirit Gu poked his head out, looked through the meridian blood, stared at the dead branch in his hand and opened his mouth to swallow.
A crimson line of fire suddenly emerged from the dead branches, quickly flying along the meridians towards the cyan spirit Gu. The red line of fire entered its mouth, as if it had been swallowed, and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
As the line of fire gradually passed, the dead branches seemed to be robbed of their power, and their color began to change slowly.
It itself was charred black, and the black gradually faded to cyan, as if the mysterious power that caused the charred black was withdrawn and restored to its original appearance.
In a few moments, the crimson color dissipated, and the fire was extinguished. The original dead branches are verdant, as if they have been plucked from a tree, and even faintly sprouts.
"This ...... Dead Wood Rejuvenation...... It's not an ordinary material, this time I've picked up a treasure!"
Xiao Nan excitedly held the cyan branch, and his eyes lit up with joy. His mind moved, and he looked towards the Natal Spirit Gu.
I saw it playing a wave with great interest, shaking its head and whiskers, and diving into the sea of knowledge.
When it turned around, Xiao Nan clearly saw that it originally only had a little red tail, as if it had been burned by fire, and it was red again with the length of a knuckle.
"It doesn't seem to have swallowed enough and won't evolve anytime soon...... According to my observations, when it turns red all over, it should be time for it to evolve again!"
He looked through the verdant branches again, and found no other subtleties, so he collected his thoughts, went to bed and sat quietly for a while, and went to bed.
......
"Xiao Nanzi, I heard that tomorrow is our first cultivation assessment, and we have to compete with each other, and the top three can be included in the Nebula List of the River Tribe?"
Tie Zhu smiled and leaned over.
"Whew-"
Xiao Nan let out a sigh of relief, and let go of the stone hammer weakly, and had to admit that there was still a little distance from moving it for the time being, and it had to quench four layers at the bottom.
"Tie Zhu, you are born with divine power, nine stars of qi and blood, and on the day of evaluation, you are a star map and a spirit, and your voice is like a dragon's groan, a proper peerless asset. I'm afraid it's a piece of cake to deal with them, right?"
"Hehe, if you talk about fighting, I'm naturally not afraid of them. Tiezhu touched his head and smirked.
"However, I have been practicing Elder Boyang's body quenching technique, and I have not been able to make progress for a long time...... I don't feel like it's the material for cultivation, or I'd better follow my father to strike iron. β
"That's not good!" Xiao Nan saw that something was wrong, and hurriedly said: "Wang Gu, that kid is very arrogant, I can count on you to teach him a lesson! Since Elder Boyang said that you are a wealth of eternity, you are definitely not talking about it! You can rest assured!"
Tie Zhu was a little stunned when he heard this, touched his head and tilted his head and smirked: "But...... What does the Nebula List mean?"
Xiao Nan almost choked on a mouthful of spittle, and dared to spend a long time talking, you don't know what the Nebula List is?
"We have the River Tribe's twelve-year-old blood refining Gu and awakening the natal supernatural power, you know this, right?" he tried to slow down his tone and said to Tie Zhu word by word.
Tie Zhu subconsciously scratched his head and nodded as if he didn't understand.
"So, the age of twelve is our watershed, the moment when it really decides whether genius or scrappy is the moment, understand?"
Tie Zhu's eyes lit up, and he seemed to suddenly realize.
"The Nebula List is a ranking of talents set up by each tribe for teenagers before the age of twelve. Among them, 1,000 on the inner list are real Tianjiao, and 1,000 on the outer list are newcomers with potential. However, even on the outer list, not everyone can be on it. β
Tiezhu blinked and began to think.
"For a small tribe like our Nanli, only the top three in the assessment can symbolically hang on the nebula list every year. As for the inner list...... Not one for now. Now you get the idea, right?"
Xiao Nan seemed to pour beans, and after explaining the meaning of the Nebula List in one go, he looked at the iron pillar with anticipation.
I saw him touching his head and smiling embarrassedly: "Xiao Nanzi...... What about us after we turn twelve?"
Eh...... Your mind is jumping fast! Xiao Nan couldn't help but touch his forehead with his hand.
"After refining Gu at the age of twelve, he naturally stepped into the threshold of real cultivation! As for the list at that time, it is said that it is not called the Nebula List, but the Hidden Dragon List!"
After he finished speaking, he pushed the iron pillar and left, diverting the topic: "Don't be too ambitious! These have nothing to do with us for the time being! Let's still think of a way, let's get on the nebula list first!"
Tie Zhu touched his head and smiled: "Hehe!"
......
These days, Xiao Nan goes to the knot grass house every day to help, and today is no exception.
He, Ye Wen and Ye Tingcheng were responsible for selecting medicinal materials, drying medicinal herbs, grinding medicinal powder, and boiling medicinal soup, and were familiar with the basic knowledge of alchemists.
According to Uncle Seven Immortals, after this witchcraft assessment, a few people will have to calm down and learn the true alchemy technique!
So what Xiao Nan is really looking forward to is not the witch path assessment and the Nebula List, but the upcoming alchemy secret art!
After all, the latter means real stone coins!
"Anan, my mother heard that this assessment is very important, can the top three children enter the Nebula List of the main clan?" Lan Xi sandwiched a piece of silver tea cake for him and smiled gently.
"Hmm...... It's just an external list, routinely named, and it can't be real...... Hmm, it's delicious!" Xiao Nan got into his hands directly, grabbed the silver tea cake and stuffed it into his mouth, and was so hot that he screamed.
"Even if it's just an outer list, if it can be hung for a few days, it's enough to be famous for the river tribe. Lan Xi smiled very proudly, her beautiful eyes full of happiness.
"Anan, my mother knows that if you use all your strength, you will not only be on the outside list! β
Listening to her advice, Xiao Nan was moved.
He suddenly raised his head, grinned, and said with a smile: "Mother, in less than ten years, Anan will be the myth of Nanli." β
He always remembered the wish he had madeβ
"I hope that one day, I can stand on the top of the world and let the whole world look up to me. Because, only I, who am invincible in the world, can truly protect my relatives. β
