Chapter 3: The Blue-Eyed Vulture
The moon hangs on the horizon, like the Milky Way.
In a simple room in the General's Mansion, two figures sat opposite each other, chatting for a long time, neither of them had any intention of sleeping, Wan Su nodded thoughtfully, and carefully took out a wooden box that looked quite delicate from the head of the bed, which looked like a treasure, which couldn't help but make Li Jianzhou a little curious.
"Mother, what is this?"
"Child, you already have a physical realm, it's time to cultivate spiritual arts!" Wan Su smiled mysteriously, his eyes full of warmth.
"Psychics?"
Li Jianzhou looked at the box on the wooden table, and did not cheer as she thought, on the contrary, there was a trace of confusion and incomprehension in that little face.
Spiritual magic is a spell that suddenly erupts when an immortal cultivator fights with a person, and is beyond his own strength!
Because of its inherent rarity and particularity, its price has risen, even the lowest level of Xiaotong art in circulation in the world today requires hundreds of thousands of gold coins to buy, if the family is not wealthy, it is impossible to consume it.
It was this extremely expensive price that made many cultivators sigh.
What made Li Jianzhou puzzled was that Wan Su was just a little maid in the Winged Heaven Mansion, how did she possess such a rare treasure as spiritual art? Could it be that this was left by his father?!
"Mother, you're not going to tell me that this box contains a spiritual spell?"
Li Jianzhou rubbed his chin, and his indifferent tone was like an elder who had gone through decades of ups and downs and vicissitudes, looking too calm and sophisticated, not at all like the state of mind that a teenager should have.
It is no wonder that in his previous life, as the only disciple of the Spirit Array Venerable, Li Jianzhou had a unique advantage in the Tianfeng Sword Sect, as long as he was willing, there would be a steady stream of goods for him to cultivate, and among the powerful spiritual techniques under his control, there was a low-level supreme technique that was also extremely rare in the Kyushu Continent - Guiyuan Soul Shaking Soul Yin, so Li Jianzhou would not feel how new it was for a small general technique.
However, he regretted that the spiritual power required to perform that level of spiritual magic was extremely vast, and he simply relied on the negligible spiritual power hidden in his physical body, and he was afraid that he would be drawn into a dry corpse alive due to the lack of spiritual power in his body, so he could only practice the spiritual magic level of Xiaotong for the time being!
This is like a wealthy businessman with a lot of money, and his home is full of countless priceless treasures, but these jewels cannot be misappropriated for some reason, which makes people particularly aggrieved but helpless.
"Silly boy, why are you stunned? It's not spiritual magic, can you just open it and see it?"
Wan Su's heart was a little drumming, Li Jianzhou's calmness made her slightly surprised, thought about it, and continued: "Do you know how many martial artists who have stepped into the realm of the flesh are born and can't get them day and night. ”
Seeing that Wan Su's expression was a little abnormal, Li Jianzhou faintly guessed her thoughts, so he shrugged his shoulders and smiled: "Mother, the child has heard a little about spiritual arts, but the child has always thought that this is a luxury that those powerful people can cultivate, and he never thought about it..."
After a pause, Li Jianzhou rubbed his hands, gently opened the jade box, and said, "Poor families like us have the opportunity to cultivate, and the child is shocked!"
Listening to Li Jianzhou's explanation, Wan Su rarely smiled, but he was still a little disappointed and said: "That's all my mother can do, and you can only rely on yourself in the future!"
"The child understood. ”
Li Jianzhou nodded solemnly, and the next moment, a strange cyan light came from his hand, which filled the entire room, and slowly condensed into a huge bird in the air.
"Blue-eyed vulture!"
Li Jianzhou's eyes froze, and he stretched out his head to look into the box, a crystal that was extremely blue and slightly blackened was lying quietly in the box, the crystal was oval, only the size of a fist, like a green pebble exuding violent energy.
"It's... The beast core of the blue-eyed vulture!"
The beast core originates from the body of the spirit beast, and it is the place where the essence blood and energy of the spirit beast gathers, and it is very useful, and it is a rare treasure in martial arts cultivation.
It's just that the beast core contains the violent elements in the blood of the spirit beast, resulting in impure spiritual power, rashly absorbing cultivation will cause the consequences of the realm of flashiness and instability, the early stage of cultivation is very fast, but there are no obvious drawbacks, the later it is, this phenomenon will slowly appear, which is not conducive to the cultivation of martial arts in the future, so many immortal cultivators will not choose to absorb the spiritual power in the beast core to cultivate, but because of its own value, it still provokes many cultivators to go to the spirit beast abyss to hunt spirit beasts regardless of the danger to their lives!
Although this blue-eyed green vulture is only a one-star spirit beast, it is the best among the one-star spirit beasts, comparable to the powerhouse of the Eightfold True Martial Realm, and its beast core is enough to sell it for an astonishing price of 300,000 gold coins, which is more than enough to buy a low-level small general technique.
Seeing that Li Jianzhou was a little dumbfounded, Wan Su slowly closed the box, gently scratched the bridge of Li Jianzhou's nose with his index finger, and said with a smile: "This is what your mother prepared for you when you haven't landed yet, in order to be the day you stepped into the martial arts, although it came a little late, but my mother has always believed that my son is extraordinary, and sooner or later he will get ahead, and when my mother takes it to the market tomorrow and sells it, with money, your spiritual skills will be settled." ”
"Mother..." Li Jianzhou raised his head, his eyes were slightly red, and his clenched fists trembled slightly.
It is said that father's love is like a mountain, and mother's love is like a sea, Wan Su gets up early every day to work in this Yitianfu, and only has a salary of two gold coins per month, but she still has to save this money and pay the high tuition fee of twenty gold coins collected by Tianfeng Academy every year.
This is eight years, Li Jianzhou entered Tianfeng Academy at the age of five, and has been in Tianfeng Academy for a full eight years, eight years of shabby and hard work, he has always been an out-and-out waste!
However, Wan Su not only did not think about giving up, nor did he scold him, but when he was depressed, he also encouraged him to be strong with words.
Li Jianzhou knew very well in her heart that since Wan Su knew that she had reached the realm of a heavy physical body, she didn't say much on her lips, but how happy and proud she should be in her heart.
Looking up slightly at the worn-out clothes on Wan Su's body that were sewn and patched and could no longer be seen as they were, Li Jianzhou turned his head away, a hot tear slowly slipped down his cheek, and his shoulders trembled slowly in his clothes.
Sometimes, the person who cries is not necessarily cowardly, but has been strong for too long.
"Child, if a man has tears, your world will be full of thorns and difficulties, but please remember your mother's words, even if your wings are broken, you must fly to the sky without hesitation!" Wan Su said with a solemn face.
Hearing this, Li Jianzhou paused, stopped choking, and when he slowly raised his little face again, two essences flashed in his dark eyes, and there were also different colors in his face.
Wansu pulled Li Jianzhou's shoulder, slowly turned his body around, took out a handkerchief from his arms and gently wiped the tears on Li Jianzhou's face, nodded with satisfaction, and said with a smile: "The eyebrows are clear, the eyes are beautiful, and she is really handsome like a girl." ”
"Mother, after this beast core is sold, you don't want to buy spiritual magic for the child, you leave the General's Mansion, you take it to buy a small shop in the capital, do some business, although you don't make money, but it's better than suffering everywhere here, the child has his own way to become stronger!" Li Jianzhou's mood recovered, and he wiped his nose and said calmly.
"Shut up!"
Wan Su, who has always been gentle, suddenly changed his face after hearing Li Jianzhou's words, turned his head, and his voice was mixed with a bit of anger, and said: "What can you do? In this world where martial arts are respected, without strength, you can only live with your head bowed all your life, and you can't even stand up straight, how can you avenge your father's blood hatred!"
"Revenge, father he... Is it dead?"
Li Jianzhou's eyes widened, and thousands of strange thoughts flashed through his mind.
"Alas..."Wan Su's momentum suddenly died down, with a little sadness on his face, and he sighed and said: "There are some things I can't tell you yet, you just need to know that your father is an iron-clad soldier, and he is very strong..."
"When can the mother tell the child?" Li Jianzhou closed his breath, and his face had a touch of fortitude.
"Heavenly Martial Realm!"
Outside the window, the huge enchanting moon sprinkled ghostly light, and Wan Su glanced up at the distance, as if telling a little sadness in his eyes.
