Chapter 15: Three Gifts
Xingtian, who woke up again, added a trace of wisdom and firmness after being weathered in his eyes.
And the nameless old man, sitting quietly on the side at this time, like Gandalf stimulated by the Ring, stared at the bonfire in distraction, and the emotions in his eyes were as complex as Xingtian had never seen before, that is, worry, joy, relief, and doubt, all kinds of good or bad emotions, mixed and entangled in his eyes......
"Boss, boss?"
Xing Tian asked softly.
The old man woke up suddenly, and a glimmer of light flashed in his pure white eyes, "Well, you're back." ”
Xing Tian nodded, "I saw it......"
The old man nodded, didn't ask any more questions, and continued to stare at the campfire with his blind eyes......
Xing Tian was quite discouraged, and there were a bunch of words in his stomach that he wanted to say, but he didn't know where to start. With a final sigh, he sat down beside the old man. After pondering for a while, he was about to speak, but the old man took the lead in saying bluntly: "Have you ever heard of a one-person tribe?"
A one-man tribe?
Is there only one person in a tribe?
Xing Tian thought this answer was too stupid, so he shook his head.
The old man replied, "A tribe of one person is a tribe of one person, or rather, a form of offering totems to one person. ”
Xing Tian suddenly felt as disgusted as if he had eaten a fly.
"You told me the truth, and I should tell you some truths. The old man looked up at the starry sky and said slowly: "Actually, in ancient times, we were not called barbarians, but should be called witches. ”
"The Wu Clan, tempering the essence and blood of the flesh, is born to control the power of heaven and earth. Those who are powerful in the flesh can burn the sky and freeze the sea, and move mountains and abysses. And what can make my people have this power is because of the totem technique of tempering the flesh and blood. The body is used for it, and the essence and blood and soul are the roots. ”
The old man took a deep breath, stared at Xingtian with pure white eyes, and said slowly: "In fact, the original totem fire is just the soul fire refined by the ancient witch from his own essence blood. The purpose of letting all the people in the world worship and worship is only to feed oneself and strengthen one's strength. Ancient powerful tribes, such as Jiufeng, Jiuli, Xiangliu, Youxiong, Yanyang, Kuafu, etc., are all like this. ”
"The Wu clan has the totem son first, and then the totemic fire, the guardian beast, and the tribal people. The purpose of the tribe's existence is not to survive, but to create powerful totemic children, that is, warriors of the Wu clan. But now, the totem son, the totem fire, and the guardian beast have all become the minions of the guardian tribe, and they are quite putting the cart before the horse. ”
"And the so-called 'one-man tribe' is actually a return to this most primitive way. Logically, after having a tribe, the power of the totem fire is promoted faster, but if the son of the totem is not angry, the entire tribe will become the best tool for raising the son of the totem. In this way, it is better to struggle to survive alone in the wilderness. Although the totem fire is slow to advance, it can forge a true Wiccan warrior. ”
Xing Tian nodded understandingly, and had some guesses in his heart, but he was not sure, so he asked suspiciously, "Then what does this 'one-man tribe' have to do with me?"
The old man turned his head, smiled slightly, and said, "Have you heard of the Ten Witches of Lingshan?"
Xingtian shook his head again.
The old man explained: "In order to survive, my Wu clan has been fighting for thousands of years, and has been exiled to the barren land, and there are still ten great witches alive, named Lingshan Ten Witches, who will serve the Witch Temple forever. The old man, Wu Peng, ranked fourth among the ten witches. ”
Xing Tianden was dumbfounded, he thought that the old man's identity was not bad, but he never expected that the other party's identity was so powerful that he actually came from the ethereal Witch God Temple, and he was one of the ten largest Lingshan witches.
The old man Wu Peng didn't pay attention to Xingtian's shock, but threw out a sharper secret, and said: "The old man was seriously injured by the enemy a hundred years ago and was forced to sit in prison for a hundred years, but he didn't expect to find that the tribe that supported him back then had been wiped out by the enemy......
Looking at the stunned Xingtian, Wu Peng sighed and said, "Yes, the tribe that was destroyed is none other than your tribe, the Qingyu tribe. I haven't been born for a hundred years, and the power in my hands is gone, and this time I come back, which is to rekindle the fire of the totem of the Qingyu Department and look for the son of the totem. ”
Xing Tian was immediately ecstatic, but he regained his composure in an instant, and asked in a deep voice: "It turns out that the Great Witch is the guardian of our department, and the Qingyu Department has been saved this time." But why did you tell such a secret thing?"
The old man Wu Peng nodded secretly for Xingtian's temperament, but he said words that made Xingtian's heart cold: "The Qingjia Department does need to be rebuilt, but it is not you who inherits the son of Qingjia, but Qiluo!"
If it was before the conversation, Xing Tian would definitely be shocked when he heard this, but at this moment, he became extremely calm, because he guessed that Wu Peng, as one of the great witches, must have something to explain to himself.
Sure enough, Wu Peng took a deep breath and said slowly: "The Qingyu Department needs to slowly accumulate strength, and can't act impulsively, and put it in your hands, although it may soar into the sky, but each may break bones and tendons, I am not at ease." Qiluo, I have been observing for a few days, this person is your brother, and the calm wind is even more than yours, and I am very relieved that the Qingyu Department is in his hands!"
"As for you...... I have a way to make you a totem child in the way of a 'one-man tribe', and take you as a disciple, pass on your 'brute art', and fully support your dreams. Becoming my apprentice will make you famous all over the world, not to mention the benefits. But at the same time, it is also a bumpy fate, and his life is in danger at any time...... You must know that between the ten witches, it is not peaceful. Where there is great benefit, there will be great harm. I wonder if you're willing to say yes?"
Xingtian did not hesitate, immediately took out the bone knife, slashed it on the palm of his hand, let the blood flow out, touched his chest with his bloody palm, and issued a barbarian blood oath: "Disciple Xingtian, take Wu Peng as a teacher, swear by the blood soul, and never betray." If you break this oath, your body will be destroyed, your soul will not ascend to heaven or enter the earth, and you will suffer forever from losing your soul!"
Being able to become a disciple of the Ten Witches of Lingshan is definitely a strong capital, even if it is dangerous because of this, it is worth it.
If you can't grasp these opportunities, it will be too stupid and incompetent.
"Hahaha, good, good!" Wu Peng laughed with relief, paused vigorously with the wooden staff in his hand, and said, "You think that you will become my apprentice, and this greeting gift must not be missing." ”
Wu Peng probed into the bag, and after some searching, he took out three things: a small pocket, which contained black and white witch crystals like chess pieces, and an animal skin full of witch characters and patterns, a sealed glass jar with purple-gold liquid rolling slowly, and a sharp and incomparable bronze axe.
All three things are not small, but they are all contained in a small leather bag. Xingtian was thrilled, but he wasn't too surprised.
After all, with the experience of the previous life, I understand that this is an item like a space magic weapon, and in the hands of a great witch, this kind of thing is of course standard.
Wu Peng picked up the animal skin with a smile and said, "This animal skin records the method of sacrificing totems. Whether the personal strength is strong or not, in addition to the physical body and soul power, the totem is the source of various barbarian magical powers, so once you have a gain on the battlefield, you should dedicate the sacrifice, especially the head of the enemy, to the totem as soon as possible. And what is recorded on this animal skin is the method of building a simple altar, so that you can sacrifice totems in the wild, anytime and anywhere. You must keep this picture in mind!"
Xing Tian nodded yes, took the pocket with a precious place, and put it away closely.
Wu Peng then picked up the second bottle of purple-gold liquid and said slowly: "This is the 'Purple Gold Refining Blood Dispersion' that I refined, and taking a drop at the moment when your qi and blood are strong can play a role in tempering the essence of blood." However, this medicine is extremely effective, you should be careful to use it, if your qi and blood are weak, forcibly taking it may consume your essence and blood, and become a dry corpse. ”
Xingtian was overjoyed, this prescription is exactly what he urgently needs now, the strange snake that Xingtian has turned into, if he wants to successfully ignite the fire of the totem and become one with himself, he needs to strengthen his own essence and blood, and this medicine is undoubtedly the most useful.
As for the last bronze axe, it gave Xingtian a strange feeling-
The axe surface alone is the size of half a tabletop, counting the handle of the axe, it is enough to be one meter two or three, and it is extremely heavy in the hand, I am afraid that it is more than five hundred catties. From the axe face to the axe handle, it is covered with gluttonous ancient patterns of animal faces, which are ancient, mysterious and awe-inspiring. The pattern in the middle is like a dragon and a phoenix, full of unknown energy.
It doesn't look like a weapon at all, it's more like a divine object that carries mysterious power, and it actually gives birth to a feeling of worship.
The handle of the axe is extremely comfortable to hold in the hand, and the slightly convex texture has a very strange feeling, as if the whole big axe has become a part of the body, and the touch of close to the flesh and blood is transmitted to every corner of the big axe along the texture.
"It's ......"
After feeling the power inside the bronze axe, Xingtian couldn't help but let out a low voice: "Sacrificial Weapon!?"
"That's good!" Wu Peng smiled and said, "This is the sacrificial vessel I used when I was young, it is called 'Barbarian Break', and it is a ninth-rank soul-level sacrificial vessel. This is a good fellow, not only can he kill enemies, but he can also sacrifice. You can't do without your totem until it advances to the sacrificial spirit. ”
Xingtian was ecstatic in his heart, this was really someone who sent a pillow just when he wanted to sleep.
He had just obtained the top-level killing technique of the God of War [Dry Qi Killing Technique], which was a big shield, and Qi, a big axe.
The killer moves in this set of combat skills require a shield and an axe to perform. Now that he has just got the trick, there is a weapon in his hand, how can he not be excited?
I got a weapon-shaped sacrificial weapon, and I had a simple altar arrangement, I only need to kill and sacrifice, and the promotion of the totem can grow rapidly, and similarly, my strength will also improve very quickly.
There are also extremely strict restrictions on the use of sacrificial vessels, high-level sacrificial vessels can be used for low-level totem sacrifices, but low-level sacrificial vessels can never be used to sacrifice high-level totems, which is disrespectful to totems, and can even be said to be an insult to the witch god, not only will not get the soul power to feed, but will even be punished by the totem, depleting their own strength.
As Wu Peng said, with a soul-level ninth-rank sacrificial weapon, all soul-level totem sacrifices can be used, but they cannot be applied to spirit-level totem sacrifices.
