Chapter 24: Waiting and Cultivating

Spring turned to summer, and outside the attic above the lonely peak of the scorching blood sea, a blue light shroud more than ten meters wide loomed over a blood demon puppet that was trembling violently. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

This puppet is the body of Beiyi that has been integrated into the blood demon crystal nucleus, at this moment, the surface of the body that looks like a mass of flesh is constantly tumbling and surging, and occasionally there is a shocking pillar of flesh suddenly poking out from the body, as if it is a monster that wants to break through the flesh and skin, sometimes due to the excessive force of the probing, those flesh and blood are torn apart, spilling a piece of pus and blood that is about to vomit, and the white thing that looks like a bone in the meat pillar suddenly retracts into the flesh mass to leave a terrifying blood hole, and then heals at an unhurried speed under the catalysis of bloody magic, this situation has to happen every minute, and it only appears once in a few days at first, which would only happen once an hour a few weeks ago.

Especially when this kind of terrifying situation happened for the first time, Zhen Shuai and Chen Xuanshang almost thought that Bei Yi had been completely demonized and was about to break out of the cocoon, but Xiao Lian, who only knew a little about the situation, explained with a wry smile that this situation was the process of the blood demon puppet absorbing the magic of the blood demon crystal nucleus to reshape the body, which was normal, and there was no need to worry too much, but the two of them were still really scared, especially after the situation of the flesh pillar breaking out of the body became more and more frequent in the future, the two of them were completely calm.

"When will this physical remodeling be completed?, how can we know if Bei Yi's soul is still there?" asked Zhen Shuai anxiously looking at the pus, blood and rotten flesh all over the ground.

"The process of reshaping the flesh can be described as reborn, and it is as difficult as winning the catastrophe, when the blood demon puppet completely becomes the face and body of Beiyi, this flesh reshaping will be completed, and when the time comes, you will know at a glance. And Bei Yi's current body has been completely occupied by the blood demon magic power, the blood demon crystal nucleus has gone through an unknown number of body transformations and refining, it must have a certain spirituality, it must be in the body is fighting with Bei Yi's undissipated divine consciousness to gain control of the body, we are powerless in this regard, and we can't perceive it, only when they divide the victory and defeat, one side is swallowed by the other party can completely restore consciousness, then we can naturally sense whether the body's divine consciousness is Bei Yi or blood demon. ”

Xiao Lian's explanation was relatively clear, but seeing Xiao Lian's leisurely expression, Zhen Shuai asked more anxiously

"So what else can we do now?"

"Quiet waiting is the biggest help to Bei Yi, we can't do anything now, it's better to take this opportunity to step up cultivation and improve strength, after Bei Yi has completely recovered, you will also be on the road." ”

After Xiao Lian finished speaking, his right hand gently patted Zhen Shuai's shoulder, and the person instantly escaped into the soil and didn't know what to do.

Zhen Shuai frowned tightly and didn't say a word, but he blamed himself even more for the status quo of this matter, at any time Zhen Shuai hoped that Bei Yi did not appear at that moment, his heart really longed for himself to be lying in the light mask and suffering at this moment......

In the following time, Zhen Shuai always sat outside the mask and spent most of his energy on practicing the narcissistic exercises, Xiao Lian occasionally came over and threw Zhen Shuai a few bottles of pills to assist in cultivation, Zhen Shuai did not hesitate to take the medicine according to Xiao Lian's prescribed time to eat, Xiao Lian also observed the changes in Zhen Shuai at the beginning of the period, and then nodded and left with satisfaction, after so many times, Zhen Shuai suddenly frowned and asked

"Are you using me as a guinea pig? Why are the pills given to me different every time?"

"I'm not feeding you, a guinea pig?" replied Xiao Lian with a dissatisfied expression.

"In our mice, they are used for experiments, especially drugs that may cause harm to the human body, and they will be tested on mice. ”

"Oh, that's a really good idea, go back and try it. Xiao Lian nodded thoughtfully.

Zhen Shuai suddenly had the urge to beat Xiao Lian, but fortunately, so far, Xiao Lian's elixir did have the effect of improving his cultivation, and it did not cause any harm to his body. And since taking the pill, the immortal qi in the body began to be more and more full, and with the cultivation of the second layer of the exercise, those immortal qi showed signs of refining under the continuous operation of a specific circuit, as if the air that was constantly compressed began to approach the feeling of mist, and as the degree of immortal qi refining became higher and higher, Zhen Shuai could absorb more and more immortal qi from the aura of heaven and earth, and the effect of multiplying in just over a month was achieved. At the same time, the circuit of its body surface exercises is becoming more and more complex, and it is faintly about to derive the appearance of a new circuit.

At this moment, Bei Yi has initially had a normal human body, but the head has not yet been separated from the pot-bellied body, but a strange face has appeared where it should be, which makes the anxious Zhen Shuai see some hope.

Time passed slowly, the people, immortals, half-demons and half-demons on the lonely peak had forgotten anything, each doing their own thing, and Beiyi's situation was finally getting better and better, the human body, head, and limbs had been formed, but the facial features had not yet recovered, but the terrifying physical remodeling had basically stopped, leaving only the bulging small flesh ball in the smooth face constantly wriggling.

After a small whistle, Zhen Shuai finally opened his eyes and slowly stood up from the ground, Xiao Lian and Chen Xuanshang also heard the joyful whistle and appeared from the attic and the cave.

"What's the matter, Brother Zhen Shuai's second-layer exercises have been refined?" Xiao Lian asked in surprise.

"Yes, the second layer of this narcissistic exercise is indeed refined according to the jade jian, the first layer can accelerate the absorption of heaven and earth aura and the efficiency of converting immortal qi, and the second layer is to refine the immortal qi in the body into a mist existence, at this moment my mana is twice as fast as the first layer, and the operation rate is also twice as fast, those kinds of immortal techniques that require casting time are basically instantaneous, hahahaha. ”

Zhen Shuai smiled and explained two sentences, and immediately the mana in his body moved with his divine sense, and the right hand that flashed with a peach-shaped complex circuit flashed a few times, Zhen Shuai smiled and swiped out of thin air, and several fireballs flew into the distance in a straight order, Zhen Shuai smiled and nodded, the elephant-shaped rune-shaped circuit on his right arm that looked like a phoenix flashed wildly, and a half-meter-sized flame bird condensed and formed within a second, and he didn't see any movement from Zhen Shuai, just heard a "go" The word blurted out that the flying bird's wings spread and went straight to the fireball at a speed more than twice as fast as the fireball, just when the rest thought it was over, Zhen Shuai raised both hands at the same time, and under the flashing of his arms, the two firebirds appeared out of thin air, and followed the previous firebird after shaking his arms, and after a few seconds, the fireball and the firebird actually converged in one place and made a deafening explosion sound, and the sky was full of fire and rain and fireworks bloomed and slowly drifted away.

Xiao Lian was quite shocked when he saw the scene in front of him, and immediately changed his expression and smiled indifferently: "The firebird summoning this kind of intermediate immortal technique is actually in the hands of Brother Zhen Shuai like a primary immortal technique, and to put it mildly, there are three, if you do it with all your might, I don't know how many Brother Zhen Shuai can control at the same time?"

"How many at the same time?" Zhen Shuai touched his chin and thought about it: "I don't know, but I feel that I have a lot of power left, so let's give it a try." ”

Before Xiao Lian could say anything, Zhen Shuai smiled and spread his hands evenly, his arms exuded a warm red as if a flame was burning, and a half-meter-long firebird also appeared in turn, in just a few breaths, more than a dozen firebirds were densely suspended on Zhen Shuai's head, and Xiao Lian was speechless in surprise when he saw this scene, but Zhen Shuai's situation was not as easy as it was revealed, except for the mana in his body was exhausted, those firebirds were about to get out of his control, and planned to fly away on their own, Zhen Shuai suddenly took a deep breath, crossed his hands and swept away, all the firebirds seemed to be ordered, each drawing a strange arc or flying straight awayIn the end, they all converged at a distance of hundreds of meters and burst at the same time, the flames and red ripples spread out within a hundred meters before the roar broke out, and a wave of scorching air followed, in the wave of flame qi, Zhen Shuai himself was blown back several steps before he stood still, and then smiled awkwardly: "It's still not good to control too many spells at one time." ”

"You're such a talent. ”

After Xiao Lian's right hand glowed with an earthy yellow light, those close qi waves and shock waves were completely dispersed, and Chen Xuanshang behind him was also unharmed.

At this moment, the shock in Xiao Lian's mind, who only has a deep understanding of immortal arts, is beyond words, although the firebird summons this kind of intermediate immortal art, almost all fire attribute immortals and human immortal cultivators are basically the most commonly used, but although this kind of immortal art that requires a certain casting time is not weak, it is rarely used in actual combat, especially in the one-on-one process, when the casting time is relatively long, and now Zhen Shuai has not only reached the level of instantaneous, but also can cast so many at a time, and more importantly, it can be suspended after casting, and finally released at the same time, and can take different routes to attack together, this situation is basically the control of immortal arts and immortal qi has reached a quite extraordinary level of control, and it is already a qualitative leap on the basis of immortal arts.

"Hehe, the power seems to be not small, but it consumes too much mana, and a dozen of them are really difficult to control, too much effort. ”

Zhen Shuai wiped the sweat from his forehead, and after a few breaths, he seemed to feel that the mana in his body had recovered a little, and he immediately spread his hands again.

Xiao Lian's originally shocked face became even more complicated, only to see one after another fist-sized fireballs appear out of thin air above Zhen Shuai's hands, suspended in the air like the original firebirds, and this time Zhen Shuai actually gathered dozens of fireballs, and it seemed that he still had the strength left, and then those fireballs were lined up in various geometric shapes in the chaos of Zhen Shuai's hands, which looked extremely fun.

Xiao Lian finally reminded him with great caution: "Brother Zhen Shuai, once these fireballs are superimposed, the power is definitely not what you can eat now, you had better ....... throw them far away." ”

Zhen Shuai immediately stopped his movements when he heard this, and those fireballs were also extremely well-behaved and suspended at a certain distance, and at this moment Zhen Shuai asked cautiously without looking back: "Then what should I do now?"

"It's best to throw them out one by one, be sure to grasp the distance!

"Okay. ”

Zhen Shuai heard that his fingers moved irregularly, and those fireballs began to fly into the distance one by one, and when there was only one fireball left in the end, Xiao Lian finally wiped the cold sweat from the corner of his forehead with a sigh of relief

"Why is Brother Xiao Lian so nervous? Are these fireballs terrifying after they are superimposed on each other?"

"Let me tell you this, 10 fireballs attack one by one, 1 layer of Xuanhuo cover can be resisted, 10 fireballs converge into a large fireball, a one-time attack requires 5 Xuanhuo covers to resist, 10 fireballs detonate at the same point If there is a mutual devouring superposition, it will take about 20-30 layers of Xuanhuo cover to resist, you understand this meaning. ”

"That doesn't sound like a good fit for the law of conservation of energy. Zhen Shuai bit his lip and muttered.

"What is the law of conservation of energy?" After hearing Zhen Shuai spit out a language he didn't understand many times, Xiao Lian was basically used to it, and just asked the question he wanted to ask.

"Alas, it's too complicated to explain, but now that you know that there's such a way to increase your power, it's a good idea to practice when you're fine. ”

"Mutual devouring superposition is a kind of secret art or in your words....It is a small probability event-like existence, just like you just now, although the probability of causing mutual devouring superposition is very small, but it is not impossible, but although this method of increasing the power of immortal magic seems simple, it really requires extremely long-term cultivation to deliberately cast it, not to mention, its stability is not favored by the immortal clan, and at the critical moment, it is either unable to exert its power, or it explodes in an unexpected place, and may even lose its own life. ”

"I see, but the mutual devouring superposition secret technique should not be limited by the strange restrictions of my body, just exercise more. ”

Xiao Lian was extremely speechless when he heard this, but he didn't expect Xiao Lian's careful actions and explanations to make Zhen Shuai comprehend a set of extremely insidious and powerful attack patterns soon after, and his limitation of only 4 kinds of immortal arts became Zhen Shuai's accomplice in the future because of a blessing in disguise.

When Chen Xuanshang looked at the excited expressions of the two men discussing immortal arts and fighting skills, he stood very quietly and did not participate, just holding his hands behind his back, his eyes drifting to Bei Yi in the light mask from time to time, not knowing what he was thinking in his heart.
