Chapter 21: The First Fight

In this way, Ye Xiaotian's daily compulsory homework has one more thing, and that is the cultivation technique. Although it is said that there are still records in the jade slip, such as body method, sword technique or something, but Ye Xiaotian loves this technique alone, of course, the main reason is the power of the origin of his cultivation, what makes the body of the spirit element condense is the yuan qi, and the yuan qi is the synthesis of eight kinds of spiritual energy, which also means that he can practice the eight series of techniques, thinking about it, his young heart is excited.

And his Dao Law Realm was also successfully condensed three months ago, breaking through to the Gathering Spirit Stage. That day, when he watched the last trace of the black of the strange sword in the dantian covered by the white air current, he couldn't have been more excited, he had worked hard for so long, and finally began to reap the rewards. Ning Yuan's success meant that he could cultivate the spell. And he has officially entered the Gathering Spirit Period.

The so-called gathering of spirits is the process in which the body of the spirit element in the dantian begins to absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth in a limited way after the success of condensing the element. At this time, there is no longer any need to take the initiative to guide the decomposition of the aura, and the dantian will absorb a certain system of aura on its own to gradually condense the body of the spiritual element.

For example, when condensing the element, the fire-based spiritual power is selected, then the dantian will automatically extract the fire-based spiritual energy in the heaven and earth aura that is guided into the body to condense the body of the spiritual element. This is the Gathering of Spirits.

Compared with the Ning Yuan period, the Gathering Spirit Period is much more difficult, because Ning Yuan just needs to guide it by himself, but it doesn't require a lot of aura, after all, it's just a matter of covering the surface with a single layer of aura.

Gathering spirits requires the accumulation of time to slowly condense the body of the spirit element, which is a great disadvantage for some people with good qualifications and high comprehension, and the advantage of the spirit root talent is reflected here. The good ones will take about two or three years, while the bad ones may take tens or hundreds of years to reach the master.

However, Ye Xiaotian's cultivation in the Spirit Gathering Period is different, because he is covered with Yuan Force, so his talent is the highest, this only looks at the talent and does not look at the qualifications of the Spirit Gathering Period, but his cultivation speed is extremely fast. I'm afraid that it won't be long before I will spy on the realm of controlling things.

Spring goes to autumn, and half a year has passed in a blink of an eye. In the past half a year, Ye Xiaotian's cultivation of the "Soul Sutra" has not made much progress, but he has gained a lot in the "Origin Power". Moreover, through this, he has also cultivated a number of techniques, of course, they are all relatively low-level techniques, high-level techniques, with his current spiritual power purity, but he can't learn them, of course, he can't comprehend them for the time being.

Early this morning, Ye Xiaotian got up early as usual, and after meditating and cultivating for an hour, he habitually felt the changes in his lower body. After obviously feeling that the body of the spirit yuan in the dantian had condensed a lot, he couldn't help but feel a burst of ecstasy. With great joy, he pushed the door open and walked out. The courtyard was as quiet as ever, and because of the remoteness of this small courtyard, there would be no other new disciples passing by.

However, Ye Xiaotian didn't care much about this, probably in the past few years, he was also used to being lonely. Maybe only the appearance of that blue figure will make waves in his heart.

He quickly left the small courtyard and came to the bamboo forest in the back mountain again. After walking a short distance, he stopped in front of a black knotted bamboo and muttered, "It's been three months, I should be able to break it this time!"

Ye Xiaotian took a few steps back, looked at the thin bamboo for a while, and after making a few simple handprints on his hands, he suddenly shouted, "First-level water system technique, water arrow technique!" After finishing speaking, he saw a water arrow as thick as a tree trunk shoot out from the void in front of him, and blasted towards the black knotted bamboo with an indomitable momentum. I only heard the sound of "boom", and the water arrows all hit the black bamboo.

This time, as before, the black knotted bamboo made a "boom" sound, bent backwards, and then suddenly bounced back, giving him a hard blow. After receiving a blow from his water archery technique, the black knotted bamboo was directly frozen and did not move. It was only after a while that the sound of "click" was heard, and the black knotted bamboo also fell to the ground with a bang.

Ye Xiaotian couldn't help but cheer when he saw that the water archery technique had such power. However, before his cheers fell, he heard a coquettish shout: "First-level water system technique, water archery technique!" and then heard a "boom". Behind the black knotted bamboo that Ye Xiaotian had just broken, the three black knotted bamboos were all broken one after another.

"Hehe, big fool, you still need to work hard, this girl practiced this technique later than you, but the power is more than three times that of you!" A figure slowly paced from a distance, and the smug tone was unusually obvious.

Ye Xiaotian turned his head, looked at the person helplessly, and said, "Stupid Xiaoxue, didn't you say that you are an ancient strange beast?

Naturally, Xiaoxue who came from a little greedy rabbit to a beautiful girl, at this time Xiaoxue was still wearing the white dress she had just started, and her long hair like a waterfall was combed and scattered, and she was put on her chest, looking full of fairy energy. But her mouth was still so merciless.

"Big fool, you just admit that you are too stupid, it took three months to practice water archery to become like this!

Ye Xiaotian's face flushed, but he said to himself: "Hmph, stupid Xiaoxue, you always say that I am poor, if you have the ability, you will come to the competition today, see who is more powerful?"

I didn't want Xiaoxue to be stunned when she heard this, and stared at him for a long time, as if she was very unsure that this sentence was actually said by him. Cover your mouth and smile at the moment: "Are you sure?"

Ye Xiaotian choked for a moment, thought about it for a long time, and finally couldn't swallow this breath, and said, "Of course...... OK!"

Xiao Xue raised her eyebrows and said, "Okay! However, it's too boring to compare like this, right?"

Ye Xiaotian frowned and asked, "How can you compare?"

Xiaoxue smiled: "Hehe, of course it's a gamble or something!

Hearing that he was going to raise the bet, Ye Xiaotian hesitated, "This is ...... Not so good!"

Xiaoxue looked at him in her eyes and said jokingly: "What's wrong, are you afraid of losing to this girl?" Oh, that's too, after all, your water archery skills are not enough for this girl!"

Ye Xiaotian was angry, and he said: "Hmph, who is afraid of you, just bet! But what do you want to bet?"

Xiaoxue pondered for a while, and suddenly had an idea. Said: "Isn't there still more than a year left before that Eight Veins Martial Arts? Let's bet that in the next year or so, whoever loses will be responsible for cooking." Hmph, I've been so tired of the past few months, I have to cook for you big idiot every day!

Ye Xiaotian was stunned and said: "Stupid Xiaoxue, didn't you take the initiative to take on this cooking? You said that I made it too unpalatable, so I took the initiative to be the master, did you forget?"

Xiaoxue was stunned for a moment, woke up, and said to herself: "Yes, why did I forget about this, if he loses, let him cook, hey...... I don't want to have nightmares like that again!"

"Big stupid, let's do it! If you lose, you will be responsible for everything on the mountain except cooking!How about it?" Xiaoxue said to Ye Xiaotian after thinking about it.

Ye Xiaotian was taken aback, "What, everything on the mountain, then I won't lose if I lose!"

Xiao Xue's face was stiff, and she said: "What's the loss, you weren't alone in doing all the things on the mountain when I didn't transform, and you were still the only one in terms of cooking at that time!"

Ye Xiaotian: "...... Uh, okay!"

"Haha, if you bet with this girl, you have to show the consciousness of losing, you are up to you to pick up water and chop firewood or something, take the move! First-level water system technique, water archery technique!" Ye Xiaotian just agreed, Xiaoxue's expression was a burst of pride, in her mind, she won this competition, so she couldn't wait to launch an attack, and strive to end the battle as soon as possible.

Ye Xiaotian listened to her words, and couldn't help but have a black line on his face, and said in his heart: "Carrying water and chopping firewood, these jobs have always been done by me well, have you thought about whether you can say this when you speak!" complained in his heart, but the speed in his hand was not slow, but he also quickly formed a few handprints in the air, and shouted, "First-level water system technique, water archery technique!" When casting the spell, Ye Xiaotian's heart flashed a thought, "Hmph, you must not have thought that I have a hidden trick, this time I see that you stupid Xiaoxue is not planted in my hands?"

So, the two of them fought against each other with water archery in this way, and if a cultivator passed by here, he would definitely be surprised to close his mouth, and sighed: "These two people can fight happily with only a first-level technique." It's really not your average optimism!"

After bombarding each other for a long time, the two still didn't come out of the middle, although Xiaoxue's water archery technique was more powerful, and there was still strength left after fighting with Ye Xiaotian, but every time it was blocked by Ye Xiaotian's water arrows, the speed would naturally slow down, and Ye Xiaotian took this opportunity to avoid it. Xiaoxue was so angry that she was like thunder! she just didn't run over and grabbed Ye Xiaotian and beat him severely.

"It seems that this big fool has made progress, although the spell is not good, but his speed is a lot faster, no wonder he dares to call me a fight!" Xiao Xue became more and more frightened, she knew that it would not work like this, and her spiritual power would definitely be consumed first. And because it is a spirit animal, her spiritual power cannot be restored by running the cultivation method like Ye Xiaotian, and her spiritual power can only be naturally restored day after day.

Thinking of this, Xiaoxue had to grit her teeth and prepare to fight hard. "It seems that you can't take some risks! Well, it's okay to fight him in melee combat, he can't dodge in close combat. ”

So, Xiaoxue and Ye Xiaotian were battling water archery while slowly approaching Ye Xiaotian. Fortunately for her, Ye Xiaotian didn't seem to be aware of her intentions, and was still fighting against her while avoiding the aftermath of her spell.

Time passed slowly, and Xiaoxue was getting closer and closer to Ye Xiaotian. At this time, when the distance reached a certain point, Xiaoxue finally moved in her heart, "This distance should be okay!"

As a result, Xiaoxue did not cast the water archery technique, but increased her speed in an instant. She wanted to rely on her speed to avoid the water archery technique shot by Ye Xiaotian, even if she couldn't avoid it, with Ye Xiaotian's kind of power water archery technique, she wouldn't die if she took a hard hit! And as long as she cast the water archery technique after she got close, Ye Xiaotian would definitely be beaten to the point that she temporarily lost her ability to fight. It's just that when she just wanted to speed up, she saw a smile on the corner of Ye Xiaotian's mouth that "the treacherous plan succeeded".

"Hey, this big idiot, can he still cheat? No, it can't be, how can his IQ be possible, it must be an illusion!" Xiao Xue had just raised her vigilance against Ye Xiaotian in her heart, and she was immediately denied by herself again, and rushed forward again. After rushing for a distance, suddenly, she felt a stagnation under her feet, and she could no longer move a step.

"What's going on?" Xiaoxue hurriedly looked at her feet, only to see that at some point, several vines came out of the ground and wrapped around her legs. And at this time, the water archery finally hit her hard when she couldn't avoid it. Surprisingly, however, she didn't react.

This situation was seen by Ye Xiaotian, but he didn't care about it, but Xiaoxue endured it and didn't snort in pain. He said proudly: "Hehe, you can't think that I have another system of spells! This is a first-level wood system spell, a wood binding technique! How about it?"

"You, when did you learn it?" why didn't this girl know?" asked Xiaoxue in surprise.

"Hmph, you run out with that stinky bird every day to steal food, of course you don't know!" Ye Xiaotian glared at Xiaoxue fiercely, and then showed a hint of pride, "What's the matter, now that you can't move, it's time to admit defeat, stupid Xiaoxue!"

"Hmph, I don't know who loses and who wins, you have to watch me carefully!" Xiao Xue didn't show annoyance, but looked at Ye Xiaotian and laughed.

Ye Xiaotian was stunned for a moment, and said lightly: "Can you still escape from this wood binding technique, you don't have a spiritual weapon to cut off these branches immediately! If you want to take the time to break free, then I will be polite to cast the water arrow technique on you!"

"Hehe, of course I know this!" Xiaoxue said playfully: "However, you haven't caught this girl yet!

Ye Xiaotian was stunned, and hurriedly wiped his eyes, while muttering: "It can't be that you used an illusion!" Sure enough, when he opened his eyes again, the bound Xiaoxue was gone. It is impossible for her to break free in such a short period of time, the only possibility......

At this time, as if to verify his conjecture, Xiao Xue's lazy voice came from behind him, "Hey, big fool, are you looking for this girl? Don't look for it in front, I'm right behind you!"

Ye Xiaotian turned his head in astonishment, only to see a delicate figure standing not far behind him, that beautiful appearance, like snow skin, who is it not Xiaoxue who just disappeared!

At this time, Xiaoxue stood not far behind Ye Xiaotian, her hands were in hand, that posture, as long as Ye Xiaotian dared to act rashly, she would perform water archery.

However, Ye Xiaotian was relieved when he turned around and saw her posture, which made her very puzzled, and said: "Hey, big fool, don't you still admit defeat?" You know, I cast water archery on you at this distance, you can't dodge it at all, don't you want to resist hard, then you will be injured, this girl's water archery technique is more powerful than yours." ”

In her mind, Ye Xiaotian probably couldn't accept the punishment after failure, such as carrying water and chopping firewood, and wanted to take the opportunity to cheat!

However, at this time, Ye Xiaotian smiled and said, "I thought that your illusion ability had progressed to what level, it turned out that it was nothing more than that!Hey, if I guessed correctly, that distance is the limit of your illusion, and if you get closer, you will be discovered by me!?"

Xiaoxue was stunned, she didn't expect Ye Xiaotian to guess correctly, indeed the place where she was standing was the limit of her illusion ability, if she went further, she would be discovered by Ye Xiaotian in advance. Thinking of this, she couldn't help but be a little impressed by Ye Xiaotian. But it's just from a big fool to a fool, far from being a smart person.

Although Ye Xiaotian guessed the weakness of the illusion, Xiaoxue still did not panic, because even if Ye Xiaotian knew, it would be useless. At that moment, she snorted coldly and said, "Even if it is, you can't dodge this water archery technique." ”

"Who said I'm going to get out of the way!"

"Then you just want to use your body to resist, no, I can't hurt you!

Ye Xiaotian rolled his eyes, daring to love this guy is so concerned about carrying water and chopping wood! He calmed down at the moment and said, "I don't choose to dodge, nor do I choose to resist with my body, I can directly dissolve your water archery technique!"

Xiaoxue was stunned, "Really?"

"Of course!"

"Okay, since you are so confident, this girl will let you have a little more knowledge, but this girl told you, even if you are injured, you have to carry water and chop wood for me!"

Ye Xiaotian was speechless, do you need to be so persistent?

"Hmph, this is your own doing! Take it, water magic, water archery!" As Xiaoxue finished speaking, a water arrow the thickness of a bucket formed in front of her, gathering a certain momentum and shooting forward at a rapid pace. Ye Xiaotian looked at the water arrow that shot over, but he was not in danger, he first made a handprint and released a small water arrow. Then, when the two water arrows collided, he actually took a few handprints again. Then, with a rumbling sound, a wall of earth suddenly appeared in front of him, blocking the arrow that was rushing towards him.

Although the earth-based spell was born to overcome the water system, the earth wall that Ye Xiaotian recruited was still shattered by the water arrow, and it almost collapsed. It's just that Xiaoxue who saw this scene was not happy at all, because she used all the means, but she still couldn't help the guy opposite.

"You...... How do you know so many system spells? No, you must have used some kind of rune paper, so you can use the three systems of water, wood and earth. Xiaoxue glared at Ye Xiaotian, gritted her teeth, and said fiercely.

"Hey, stupid Xiaoxue, do you want to repay your account if you lose? Have you also seen the record on the jade slip, how can I do it with such a mental energy consuming thing as rune paper? Besides, there is no material for making rune paper in this small courtyard, right?"

"Hmph, then you're ......"

"Hey, stupid Xiaoxue, I didn't expect you to be a guy who likes to play tricks in addition to being a foodie!"

"Hmph, don't say I'm a foodie! and...... This time the girl lost, but so what?"

“...... I didn't expect you to lose so confidently! Okay, it's time for you to make good on your promise...... Huh!"

"Hehe, you only realized it now! I don't believe that you are a big fool, and you don't even mention the gambling contract and play so hard, this girl will not make such a stupid mistake!"

"You ......"

"Okay, this girl is going to play with Brother Xiaobai, so I won't accompany you, you can continue to 'cut' bamboo here!" After saying that, Xiaoxue turned around directly and ran away.

And Ye Xiaotian looked at the back of Xiaoxue leaving in a daze. After a long time, he retracted his gaze, and as Xiaoxue said, he showed his "eighteen martial arts" to bamboo!
