Volume III Chapter 108

Chen Fan couldn't imagine that his idea was true, the power of the beast soul would not only enhance the soul of the beast, but also give him the ability to communicate with the beast, and it seemed that it would also make the beast friendly to him, but this point has not been confirmed and needs to be verified in the future.

However, the situation of the little blood wolf should have already indicated that there is such a possibility, otherwise even if he saved the little blood wolf, the little blood wolf would not be so sticky to himself and listen to his own words so much.

Other people who have raised alien beasts since childhood can only cultivate alien beasts as their own combat partners, and the relationship between humans and alien beasts is not a master-servant relationship, but a friendship relationship.

When encountering an enemy, whether to fight or not is still decided by the alien beast itself, and the keeper does not have the ability to command the alien beast, but the little blood wolves are different, they all obey their own instructions, and they will do whatever they want them to do, and they will definitely not disobey it, they are about to catch up with the water element, they are so loyal.

Thinking of this, Chen Fan decided to test this idea on Xuefeng Fox in the future to see if this idea was true, if it was, then it would be too terrifying.

Because, this means that you can use this ability to build a beast army, as long as you capture some beasts alive and come back, and constantly use the power of the beast soul to transform them, then, you can slowly build a huge beast army, and at the same time, you can control countless beasts through the beasts, and at that time, you can destroy a first-class sect by yourself.

Just when Chen Fan was thinking about his future plans, Zhao Yang came to ask for a meeting.

After Chen Fan met with Zhao Yang, Zhao Yang immediately said what he meant.

It turned out that the recruitment mission in Maple Mountain City had been completed, and tomorrow morning, he would set off to join the large army. Then they went back to the capital together, and asked Chen Fan to get ready and leave together tomorrow, which was expected, so Chen Fan agreed without hesitation.

The destination of this rendezvous will be the capital of Yun'an Province - Octagon City.

Octagon City.

The capital of Yun'an Province. At the same time, it is also the largest city in Yun'an Province, the city wall is six zhang high, and the width of the city wall is three zhang, which is enough to pass several carriages side by side.

The octagonal city was surrounded by the city wall into a rectangle, about 60 li long and 40 li wide, with four gates in the east, south, west, and north.

The city has a population of 800,000 and is lined with shops and a constant stream of people. A scene of prosperity.

Outside the west gate, a group of men and horses were coming towards the Octagon City.

There were four carriages in the group, and more than a dozen people rode horses in each of the front and back of the carriage, as if guarding the carriage in the middle.

The one who ran at the front was a middle-aged man, but it was Zhao Jun, and beside him were Zhao Ming and Zhao Yang.

They set off five days ago, traveled for days, and finally arrived in Octagon City today.

Originally, if everyone had ridden horses. The time will be shortened, but neither the water elemental nor the Cobra Guardian will ride a horse. Chen Hong and the three of them wouldn't, although Chen Fan would, but he didn't want to ride a horse for the sake of cultivation, so Zhao Jun had to hire four carriages for them to ride, and let those martial artists who had just been recruited back be divided into two groups. is responsible for protecting Chen Fan who is sitting in the carriage, and the current Chen Fan must not afford to lose.

After those warriors passed through the battle in the inn, they already had a fear of Chen Fan, so although they were a little dissatisfied with this arrangement, no one dared to object. Just silently accept it.

The crowd slowly approached the city gate, and their speed slowed down.

At this time, a beautiful girl in red was standing outside the city gate looking into the distance, and there were several young people in white suits standing behind her, with a big "Zhao" embroidered on her left chest.

Seeing the arrival of Zhao Jun and the others, the girl in red immediately jumped up happily and waved her hand.

Zhao Jun also saw the girl in red, and couldn't help but smile slightly: "Hehe, I didn't expect her to come too." ”

Zhao Yang had a bitter face, and thought to himself: It's over, why is she here too, and I don't know what torture she is going to suffer this time.

Zhao Jun led everyone to the girl in red, got off the horse first, and led the people who dismounted one after another.

The girl in red immediately greeted her, pulling Zhao Jun and coquettishly: "Third uncle, why did you arrive so late, I have been waiting here for a long time, you see, my skin has been dried by the wind, I don't care, you have to compensate me for the gift." ”

"Haha, it should be compensated, it should be compensated, how can such a big thing not be compensated? If Rong'er can't find her in-laws because of this in the future, then I will be a sinner, so this time I have prepared a very special gift for you." Zhao Jun laughed, his face full of ridicule.

"Hmph, what kind of in-law are you looking for, my future husband must have a handsome appearance, elegant demeanor, strong martial arts, will love me, love me, share with me when I am happy, share with me when I am in pain, coax me to be happy when I am angry, can't lie to me, scold me, let alone beat me, listen to me everything, and treat me wholeheartedly, otherwise I'd rather not marry, my requirements are not high, why can't I find it." ”

"It's not that high, I think you'd better go find a slave and come back. Zhao Yang muttered quietly on the side.

But she didn't expect that the girl in red's ears were very smart, she turned her head to look at Zhao Yang, and a weird smile appeared on her face: "Xiao Yangzi, what did you just say?

"Uh, I didn't say anything. Zhao Yang was a little panicked and hurriedly denied it.

"Really?" the girl in red still had a smirk on her face.

"Yes!" Zhao Yang immediately straightened his chest and replied with a serious expression, but immediately lowered his head and bent down again, and said in a low voice: "Little sister, can you not call me 'Xiaoyangzi' in front of so many people, it's very shameless." ”

"What 'little sister', it's 'big sister', have you forgotten? Whoever has the highest martial arts will be the greatest, oh, I see, do you think that your current martial arts have surpassed me, so you want to compete with me for this position, right?"

"No, no, you...... I ......" Zhao Yang denied it repeatedly, and as soon as he became anxious, he spoke a little incoherently.

"Okay, no need to say it anymore, since you have this heart, I, as the eldest sister, will definitely give you this opportunity, but considering your hard work. I'll give you a night's rest today, and we'll see you tomorrow morning at the martial arts training ground. The girl in red said and patted Zhao Yang's shoulder, squinted, and a lovely smile appeared on her face: "You won't come tomorrow, right?" If you don't come, then I can only personally 'see' you every day." ”

When the girl in red said "every day" and "look", she particularly accentuated her tone word by word, and Zhao Yang, who understood the meaning of her words, complained bitterly in her heart. The cute smile of the girl in red was no different from the devil's smile in his eyes now.

Looking at Zhao Yang, who lowered his head and looked bitter, the girl in red was in a good mood, let out a giggle laugh, patted him on the shoulder again, and walked back to Zhao Jun's side.

"Third uncle, what gift have you prepared for me? If I'm not satisfied, I won't accept it. ”

"Haha, this time will definitely satisfy you. Zhao Jun laughed, "However, I can't show you yet, let's show you when we get to the station, let's go back first." ”

"Okay, let's go back. The girl in red waved her hand, motioning for the young men who came with her to lead the way.

The riders had all dismounted. He led the horse behind, but the man in the carriage did not come down. Still in the carriage, he followed the crowd into the city.

Since the guards at the city gate had already been dredged by the Zhao family, the four carriages were not inspected at all, and they entered the city directly.

When they entered the city, they mounted their horses and headed for the family station, which was located in the south of the city.

There are too many pedestrians on the streets. Everyone could only move forward slowly, not daring to let go of the speed, so as not to injure passers-by by accident.

Octagonal City is worthy of being the largest city in Yun'an Province, with shops everywhere in the city and people on the streets. It is very lively, from time to time I see a merchant passing by with goods, the sound of selling, bargaining, endlessly, a prosperous scene.

Chen Hong has never been to this kind of big city, so he hung up the curtain at the window on the carriage, looked out curiously from the window, and asked Chen Fan who was sitting next to him from time to time pointing to something he didn't understand, but unfortunately Chen Fan was also the first time to come to this kind of big city, and he had never seen many things, how could he know it, so he could only rely on experience to blow nonsense.

Fortunately, Chen Hong just wanted to share it with Chen Fan, and he didn't necessarily know what was what, so he didn't care if what Chen Fan said was right or wrong.

After walking for a while, everyone suddenly heard bursts of cheers from the front, wave after wave, getting closer and closer, and vaguely seemed to hear a person's name being called.

As everyone approached, everyone had already seen the scene ahead.

I saw that the streets in front of me were full of people, but the streets were empty, as if to welcome the arrival of a big man, and everyone shouted the name of a person in unison.

"Lin Xiaofeng!"

As soon as she heard this name, the girl in red immediately had red stars in her eyes, let out a loud "ah", and then just turned her head to Zhao Jun and said, "Third uncle, you take your time, I'll go first", flew off the horse, and ran towards the street in front.

Zhao Jun was a little confused by the behavior of the girl in red, so he asked one of the young men in white who came with the girl in red: "Do you know what happened to Rong'er?"

The white-clothed young man smiled bitterly and said, "Deputy Hall Master, the fourth young lady should have gone to see someone." ”

"Look at people?" Zhao Jun felt strange, "What's so nice about looking at people?

"He is the master of the young generation of the Cold Shelter Palace, and Lin Xiaofeng, who is known as one of the three heroes of the Cold Shelter Palace. ”

"Oh, I've heard of this guy too. Zhao Jun still didn't understand: "It is said that he is a genius, and Qin Wen of the Qin family, Wang Wensheng of the Wang family, and called Sanying of the Cold Palace, but what is there to see about him?"

"Deputy hall master, do you know, Lin Xiaofeng is back to represent the family to participate in the martial arts competition this time, but I don't know what the reason is, he came back this time very high-profile, after coming to Octagon City five days ago, he will challenge the young masters of the city on the challenge platform in the south city every day, and he has fought twenty-three games in a row in the past few days, all of which have been completely victorious, and because he was born handsome, elegant in conversation, and graceful, he is regarded as the first master of the young generation by the people in the city, and he is sought after, especially some young women, who are even more fascinated by him, and regard him as an ideal spouse, so, Miss Four...... The fourth lady ......, "Speaking of this, the young man in white can't go on.

Hearing this, Zhao Jun already understood, he knew a lot about the character of the girl in red, Lin Xiaofeng, a young man with a handsome appearance and strong martial arts. is her ideal candidate, seeing the appearance of Lin Xiaofeng, there is a reason not to rush to it.

Shaking his head, Zhao Jun smiled and said, "Okay, then let's go together to see what kind of person this famous Yun'an No. 1 master is." ”

Everyone followed Zhao Jun to a crossroads, and had no choice but to stop. Because both sides of the vertical road that Zhao Jun and the others walked were already filled with crowds, leaving only the horizontal road to walk together, and Lin Xiaofeng came from the left side of the horizontal road and went to the right.

Fortunately, everyone was riding on horses, and their sight was not blocked, and Chen Hong, Chen Fan and others, who were sitting in the first carriage, also heard the news and walked out together.

Originally, Chen Fan didn't want to come out, Lin Xiaofeng was for him. It's just a strange ordinary person, and it's not worth noting, it's almost the same as the palace master of the Cold Shelter Palace is here. But Chen Hong was curious, and when he saw that there were so many people watching, he pulled Chen Fan out and asked him to accompany him to watch, but Chen Fan couldn't, so he had to agree.

Get out of the car. Seeing that the surroundings were already full of people, it really felt like the alleys were empty.

Chen Fan hugged Chen Hong. Leaping onto the roof of the car, looking at everything in front of him with cold eyes, just as he stood up, a white horse ran over in broken steps, and immediately rode a person, white as snow. The handsome face was full of confidence, and his eyes revealed a strong arrogance, which was a kind of arrogance that recognized his own strength, not the arrogance that the children of the family usually had, and the whole person exuded a charming charm. In addition, nodding and smiling at the crowd on both sides from time to time, waving his hand, he couldn't help but cause bursts of cheers from the crowd on both sides.

"Is this Lin Xiaofeng?" Zhao Jun asked the young man in a white suit who had just replied.

"Yes, Deputy Auditor. The young man in the white suit replied respectfully.

"A very good young man, but unfortunately not from our Zhao family. Zhao Jun nodded in approval.

The young man in the white suit didn't know what to do with Zhao's response, so he didn't answer, and Zhao Jun didn't care and continued to watch.

Chen Hong, who had stared at Lin Xiaofeng fixedly for a while, turned his head and looked at Chen Fan fixedly, Chen Fan couldn't help but ask strangely, "What's wrong with you?"

"Why do they all say that Lin Xiaofeng is very good? I look at it, and they still think that Brother Chen, you are better. Chen Hong asked crisply.

Chen Fan just stroked Chen Hong's hair, but smiled and did not answer, although this sentence was Chen Hong's sincere words, but it had a strong personal subjective bias.

Even Chen Fan himself has to admit that this Lin Xiaofeng's appearance is much better than himself, and he is better than Qin Wen who he met before, and he really deserves to be a Chinese person in the Cold Palace.

Chen Fan's strength on the surface is only the ninth level of the day after tomorrow, and Lin Xiaofeng is already a congenital master, and the strength between the two is also very different, and there is no comparison between the two.

Looking at Lin Xiaofeng who was gradually moving away, Chen Fan's heart was still calm, is it the number one master of the young generation? With my current strength, if I go all out, I should be able to confront him head-on, right? If you add skills, it shouldn't be very difficult to win against him.

In the past few days on the way to Octagon City, he has been promoted to another level, the beast level has reached the twentieth level, and there is only three levels left from the twenty-third level of the innate realm, and the acquisition of the next beast title is only one level left, and when he reaches the twenty-first level, he can obtain a new beast title, and every new title can be obtained with new abilities, I don't know what ability can be obtained this time? Chen Fan has some expectations.

As Lin Xiaofeng went away, the crowd gradually dissipated, and the road was clear, and he could finally move on.

I can't imagine that just an ordinary person can have such a big impact, and it can be compared to those superstars in the previous life. Chen Fan smiled bitterly in his heart, returned to the car with Chen Hong, and continued to sit at the window to watch the prosperous scene outside.

The rest of the journey was smooth, and soon they came to the Zhao family's station in the city.

The Zhao family's station in Octagon City is very large, and the people who came this time are already considered members of the Zhao family, so they all live in the station.

Chen Fan and the others were assigned an independent small courtyard, which was specially arranged by Zhao Jun, and he wanted to make Chen Fan feel that the Zhao family valued him very much and had a different kind of respect.

Before leaving, Zhao Jun also instructed Chen Fan to rest for one night and take him to meet with the person in charge here tomorrow.

Chen Fan didn't care, he still had something to do at night, he didn't care much about meeting with the person in charge here, with the martial arts he was showing now, as long as he didn't show his intention to break away from the Zhao family. Then it will definitely be reused.

He is no longer a person who didn't understand anything when he first came out of the Nongxia Forest, and on the journey here, he had already inquired about everything he should know, and even some things that he shouldn't know had been "accidentally" known, about the Zhao family's thoughts. He's already clear.

After dinner, Chen Hong knew that Chen Fan had something to do at night, so she went to find Li Ting by herself.

Since Zhao Hai became Chen Fan's designated contact, he has lived with Chen Fan, and Li Ting naturally followed.

After Li Ting came over, Chen Hong immediately found a second interlocutor besides Chen Fan.

Gao Qiang and Ma Shan are both men, and many things are inconvenient to discuss. Although Chen Fan can, Chen Fan always has to cultivate, and he doesn't have a lot of time to accompany her. As for Shui Yiyi and Huo Yi, Chen Hong had never heard a word from them, and many times, she wondered if they were dumb.

As soon as Li Ting came, the two were about the same age, and they soon became friends. When Chen Fan didn't have time to accompany her, Chen Hong would usually go to Li Ting to talk.

Chen Fan returned to his room and closed the door and window. He instructed the water silk that came in behind him to wait for the four girls to be ready, and then took out a huge beast from the storage pool, the giant bear.

This was when I was in the Medicine Valley before. In order to study what impact the power of the beast soul would have on the alien beasts and fierce beasts, Chen Fan specially asked the water silk to be caught by them. Inside his reservoir, there are many other kinds of beasts.

As soon as the Juli Bear appeared, the water silk and water dance performed a water flow technique, wrapping around its body and mouth to prevent it from struggling and screaming, and the water willow and water qi acted as guards.

Chen Fan took out the Blood Tiger's Inner Dan. Holding it in his right hand, he pressed his left hand lightly on the giant bear, and began to input the power of the beast soul, and at the same time, the crystal source in his body began to absorb the heat flow from the inner dan. Constantly transformed into energy.

Chen Fan had already done this work a few times during the journey here, and he felt a little familiar with it, Chen Fan carefully entered the power of the beast soul, but the proportion assigned when entering was not the same as that of the alien beast.

Since there was no inner pill in the beast's body, Chen Fan divided the power of the beast soul into two, half of it was entered into the head of the giant bear, and the other half flowed all over the body of the giant bear, and began to refine its body.

The power of the beast soul that flowed to the head continued to transform into mist, then disappeared, and then appeared around the beast's soul.

Sensing that the strength of the beast's soul was slowly increasing, Chen Fan was not happy about it, what he needed now was not the enhancement of the soul strength, but the change of soul characteristics.

Chen Fan knew before that the soul strength of the beast determines the state of the beast, such as the current strength, physical condition, etc., although this strength can be changed, but there is also an upper limit, it is limited by the soul characteristics.

Chen Fan couldn't accurately express the difference in the soul traits of each beast in words, he could only judge it by induction.

Through the observation and study of the souls of many beasts, he finally knew the soul trait that distinguishes each type of beast from Zhao, that is, the orderliness of the soul.

The so-called orderliness of the soul means that the soul particles that make up the soul are arranged in an orderly manner in a specific way, and the souls of the beasts appear in the shape of their bodies in Chen Fan's induction, but they are not a clear entity, but a blurry, foggy air mass that can roughly be seen in shape.

It's like a lattice movie, where you can only see the general shape, but you can't see the details clearly.

Chen Fan found that the more advanced the beasts, the clearer their souls would appear, and in Chen Fan's induction, the souls of the first-level beasts were almost a completely invisible, mist mass, so Chen Fan called this situation the orderliness of the soul. He assumed that the soul was composed of countless soul particles, and each soul particle would have its specific position, and if all the soul particles were arranged according to this specific position, then the soul that appeared in Chen Fan's sense would be an incomparably clear image that was exactly the same as the body.

However, I don't know what the reason is, all beasts, even alien beasts, the soul particles in their souls are not arranged according to their unique positions, but some deviate from their original positions, the lower the level of the beasts, the greater the position of the soul particles deviates, the more the number, and the result is that the shape of the soul is less clear.

Since the souls of all beasts are blurred, Chen Fan called their soul traits chaotic and disorderly, and the souls of beasts can basically see their shape, although they are not very clear in some small places, but they can still see the shape of their body, which is like a picture of a distant view, the general shape is relatively clear, but if you want to zoom in to see the small places, it will not work. Therefore, Chen Fan called the soul characteristics of alien beasts clear and orderly.

Soul traits are innate, and they cannot be changed under normal circumstances, and because soul traits restrict the strength of the soul, and the strength of the soul determines the size of the ontological strength, so basically, as soon as the beast is born, the upper limit of its strength has been determined and cannot be changed.

Only in some very special circumstances, the soul trait will change, for example, the beast inadvertently eats some natural treasures that can enhance strength, and under the sudden increase in strength, the body will also change, which will bring incomparable pain, if you can survive this painful stage, then the soul trait will change, so that the upper limit of soul strength will increase, and the body can also accommodate more power.

In this case, a strong external force forces one's body to change, and at the same time change the strength of the soul, and through the self-breakthrough of the soul strength, the soul characteristics are forcibly changed.

Because the effect between soul traits and soul strength is mutual, the improvement of any one can make the other increase, but there are differences between the two.

Improving the strength of the soul by improving the soul trait is the best way to be safe and without sequelae, but it is also the most difficult method, under normal circumstances, it is basically impossible to improve the soul trait safely, because there is no Zhao man or beast to know that Zhao will improve, because the soul trait is determined by the bloodline, unless the genetic trait of the bloodline is changed, it is impossible to change the soul trait, and it is a very dangerous method to increase the soul strength through violent means, so as to improve the soul trait. Not only is it life-threatening, but it also damages the soul, which is likely to lead to a shortened lifespan.

In addition, the offspring of beasts that have been promoted through this practice will have less genetic bloodline power than normal. That is, a beast that has raised its level to level eight by this method, the strength of its offspring when it becomes an adult will be lower than that of normal level eight beasts of the same kind, just between level seven and level eight.

Chen Fan's beast soul power is an exception.

It can act directly on the soul, constantly nourishing the soul, increasing the strength of the soul, and constantly sending the soul particles that deviate from the original position back to the specific position where they should go in an unknown way, thus changing the characteristics of the soul.

Not only is this method harmless to beasts, but it also constantly increases their level by changing their soul traits.

What is the limit of this method, and whether it is possible to raise the beast to a foreign beast through this method, Chen Fan does not know.

Chen Fan only knew that using the power of the beast soul could indeed change the soul trait and soul strength, and what he wanted to verify now was whether the power of the beast soul could really improve the level of the beast.

The soul of the giant bear continued to absorb the mist transformed by the power of the beast soul, and the strength of the soul slowly but steadily increased, and the image of the soul in Chen Fan's induction became clearer and clearer, although this change was very small, but under Chen Fan's full induction, it could still be clearly sensed.

Suddenly, the soul's absorption of the power of the beast soul slammed, and the entire soul seemed to stop moving in an instant, and at the same time, a sound came from the soul of the giant bear.

Then, the shape clarity of the entire soul immediately rose a lot, and it began to reabsorb the power of the beast soul, but the absorption speed was significantly higher than just now.
