Chapter 7: Source Demonic Qi
The mountain behind the Demon Spirit Academy.
When Lu Ling woke up, it was already half a day later, and Lu Yan and Ye Jingrou stayed by his side, looking at him with strange expressions.
"What's wrong?" Lu Ling asked as he was stared at by the two of them a little unnaturally.
Lu Yan and the two looked at each other speechlessly, this guy made such a big move, but he didn't notice it.
"Brother Lu Ling, before you fell unconscious, a strong fluctuation erupted, do you feel uncomfortable now?" Ye Jingrou asked with concern.
"Powerful waves?" Lu Ling frowned and stared at his palm, after induction, he still couldn't find any elemental fluctuations in his body. But for some reason, Lu Ling faintly felt that there was a strange black and purple power flowing in his body, and now he was completely different from himself half a day ago.
Perhaps only Elder Hua could help him with his doubts.
"What about Senior Huatong?" Lu Ling looked around and found that they were in a room in the hut where Elder Hua lived, but there was no trace of Elder Hua and others.
Lu Yan's eyes signaled, and Lu Ling followed him out of the room quietly, only to see the silver-haired Elder Hua sitting cross-legged at the table, his eyes closed like an old monk in a fixed position, motionless, showing an old age.
He was supposed to die on the battlefield in the fierce battle five hundred years ago, like the Demon Spirit King and many other demon powerhouses at that time, but he accepted the commission of the Demon Spirit King and endured humiliation and lived with humiliation, just to find the next person who could save the Demon Spirit Clan from fire and water.
Now it seems that that person is Lu Ling.
Therefore, when Elder Hua looked at Lu Ling, his cloudy old eyes were full of softness and relief.
"Do you notice the demonic energy in your body?" Elder Hua asked, Lu Ling blinked, his eyes lit up, and then he stretched out his hand, and when he held it lightly, a thin gas with a black and purple color came out of it and lingered on his hand.
"Demonic energy, is that what you mean?"
Although he had just sensed these air currents hidden in his body, Lu Ling found that these black qi would actually act according to his thoughts, so he naturally released them.
Compared with Lu Ling's indifference, Lu Yan and the others were not so calm, and they opened their mouths wide in shock: "This is the Demon Yuan?"
Lu Yan once read some ancient books, when a demon powerhouse cultivates to a certain strength, a unique power of the demon clan will be born in his body more or less because of the strength of the bloodline, which is called the demon yuan.
Lu Yan thought about it for a while, and then dispelled this idea. Because the magic yuan recorded in the ancient books is a kind of ink-black gas, which is still somewhat different from the black and purple gas in Lu Ling's hand. Moreover, with his current strength, it is impossible to cultivate the Demon Yuan.
"This is not a demon element, but a demon qi, also known as the source demon qi. Elder Hua explained, "Although it is the same unique power of the Demon Race as the Demon Yuan, only the purest Demon Bloodline can possess this power. ”
"I actually have the purest demon bloodline?" Lu Ling's eyes widened in disbelief.
"Since you have demonic energy, it means that it is true. Elder Hua said.
Lu Ling glanced at Lu Yan: "Then why doesn't he have demonic energy?" Lu Yan raised his eyebrows, and also looked at Elder Hua curiously.
"Lu Yan's strength is already quite outstanding at his age, and his demon bloodline should not be weak," Elder Hua lowered his eyes and said, "But there is still a gap between him and yours." ”
"Moreover, in this heaven and earth, there can only be one living source demon body. ”
The source demon body should refer to Lu Ling's special physique with source demon qi.
Lu Ling and the others were surprised: "Why?"
"According to the legend of the ancient demon clan, there is a mysterious space outside the Bailing Realm, which is filled with monstrous demonic energy, and your source demonic qi comes from there. Elder Hua said, "No one knows where that space is, and the Source Demon Body is the medium through which the two spaces connect, and it is also the only intersection between the two spaces and the Hundred Spirit Realm. ”
Lu Ling was a little confused when he heard it, his body actually communicated with another space?
"The last source demon body is the former king of the demon spirit clan, he spent half his life exploring the secrets of that mysterious space, leaving a lot of insights, but unfortunately after his fall, the ancient books he left behind have been lost, I am afraid that in the future, these secrets can only be explored by yourself. Elder Hua continued.
"Then how should I cultivate demonic qi?" After pondering for a moment, Lu Ling asked the question he was most concerned about.
Elder Hua suddenly showed a strange smile: "You should know by now that the reason why you couldn't cultivate the elements before was because of demonic energy. This power is so overbearing that the elements you inhale are eroded by them. ”
"But this happens to be the cultivation method that has been summed up by many source demon bodies for thousands of years, that is, with the help of elemental power. ”
Seeing that Lu Ling was shaking his spirits and listening attentively, Elder Hua said: "Because your body itself is the entrance to communicate with that mysterious space, the demonic qi in it will be attracted by the elemental power in your body, and it will involuntarily come to your body, and after those demonic qi fit into your body, they can be used by you to drive." ”
It's like a hunter hunting, and the elements are the bait.
"It turns out that what Grandpa Hua said about the Five Elements Quenching Body is not to help Brother Lu Ling advance to the Qi Transformation Realm. Ye Jingrou suddenly said with a smile, and the Lu Ling brothers also pouted when they heard it.
Elder Hua coughed dryly, but in order to maintain a serious image, he said, "The old man did deceive you, but of course this is just to stimulate Lu Ling's source demon body. ”
Thinking of this, Elder Hua seemed to be very satisfied with what he had done, but he saw that Lu Ling had a little loss on his face, and he muttered, "As a result, I still can't cultivate the element." ”
The corners of Elder Hua's mouth twitched, and he couldn't help but scold: "Stupid! Source Demon Qi is hundreds or thousands of times stronger than the elemental, and you are still not satisfied?" It's a shame that I'm so happy, I didn't expect this kid to be so eyeless, it's really annoying!
Lu Ling shrunk his neck a little embarrassed, and Elder Hua said angrily: "But you have to pay attention, although your body can store demonic qi, it also has a limit, so don't rush to absorb too many elements, otherwise, demonic qi will corrode your body." ”
"The upper limit of the demonic energy you can store now is roughly equivalent to the elemental power that can be stored at the peak of the Qi Realm. ”
"Huh?" Lu Ling's face turned bitter, didn't that mean that after he cultivated to the peak of the Qi Realm, he could only stagnate?
"The method of improving strength is indeed documented, but as I said before, almost all the ancient books collected by the Demon Spirit Clan have been lost, so I can't help it. "Elder Hua said that although he really wanted to help Lu Ling, he was really powerless.
"However, most of those ancient books have fallen into the hands of the Faeries, so you can look for them there if you have a chance in the future. Elder Hua said.
Lu Ling nodded, no matter what, Elder Hua finally gave him some clues, and he had always been full of yearning for the fairy spirit clan who had generously helped the demon spirit for a long time, and he also hoped that one day he could go to the holy city of the fairy spirit clan Holy Spirit Heavenly Capital to take a look at the prosperity there.
"It's getting late, go back. Elder Hua glanced out the window and said, "But there is one thing you have to keep in mind, although there are not many people in the Demon Spirit Clan who can recognize the demonic qi now, it is best for you not to expose the demonic qi to outsiders at will. ”
"Why?" Lu Ling's question blurted out, but in fact, he quickly understood something.
"Five hundred years of the Demon Spirit Clan relied on the power of the Demon Qi to change the course of that war, so those foreign clans who were defeated because of this hated the Demon Qi to the core, and once you were exposed, it could lead to death. Elder Hua said, his tone was very serious.
Lu Ling didn't want to be chased and killed inexplicably, so he nodded solemnly: "I know." ”
Only then did Elder Hua bow his head in satisfaction, wave his hand and enter the house.
The crowd saluted respectfully to his back and then left.
Ye Jingrou also went home after saying goodbye to the two, although this girl didn't help much today, Lu Ling was still very grateful to her.
"What are you going to do in the future?" asked Lu Yan on the way home.
"What else can I do, let's wait until my cultivation reaches the upper limit. Lu Ling said that if you still want to improve your strength at that time, you must go to the Immortal Spirit Clan.
"Anyway, I can finally cultivate now, and that's enough. Lu Ling said with a smile.
The boulder that had been pressing on him for so many years finally fell, which made his steps seem to be much lighter.
Lu Yan nodded, of course he was also very happy, and said, "After we go back in a while, let's have a discussion." "When Lu Ling's demonic qi erupted before, he felt an extremely dangerous aura, which made him full of fighting spirit.
"Okay!" Lu Ling was also excited and expectant, so let Lu Yan help him try the power of this power.
