Chapter 01: Black Tinder
Sanyang Town, Black Blade Butcher Shop.
It was late at night, the dim light was still on, and Wang Qiong stood in front of the meat table and skillfully chopped the meat pieces.
His speed was extremely fast, and the cold light shimmered like a rolling wave.
The boss sat not far away and glanced at him.
"I heard that your good brother Lin Xuan has condensed the fire?"
The knife in Wang Qiong's hand paused slightly, and then fell suddenly, cutting the meat on the board in two with a single sword.
"No wonder I haven't seen him come to you recently, condense the fire, awaken the ability, and ascend to the sky one step from now on, how can he linger in the market?" the boss's words were mocking.
This is a world infested with monsters.
Powerful and terrifying, those monsters stand at the top of the food chain, using humans as food as hunters, and are greedy at will.
It wasn't until the appearance of the first Psychic Awakener that everything took a turn for the better, and humanity began to rebel, and after endless years, fighting until now, it completely turned the situation around.
Therefore, awakening is the goal and aspiration of all human beings.
However, the probability of awakening is extremely low, and it is almost desperate.
Lin Xuan is only 17 years old this year, and condensing the fire means that he has a great future, and he doesn't know how many dignitaries come to the door every day, so how can he get close to a butcher again.
"Isn't it normal for wealth and wealth to forget each other?" Wang Qiong said indifferently.
The knife in his hand grew faster and faster, flying up and down like a line.
"It seems that you can't hold back your loneliness more and more, the young man is soaring, and he wants to be famous all over the world. ”
The boss touched the stubble, and raised his eyelids slightly: "It's been two years since you condensed the fire!"
Wang Qiong's arm shook, and the dark purple flesh on the board shattered violently, and all the muscles and flesh were broken.
Fire is the foundation of spiritual practice.
In the words of the boss, fire is a special substance secreted in the human body combined with consciousness to open up the second energy source, which is hidden in the dantian, hot as fire.
Compared to flesh and blood, internal organs, muscles and bones...... The so-called biological energy, the fire is more mysterious, and can give birth to special abilities in the human body, which is the so-called supernatural ability.
Wang Qiong, in this life, is destined not to awaken the fire.
However, two years ago, one night, a black flame fell from the sky and accidentally crashed into Wang Qiong's body, where he fused with it.
Obtaining Tinder will always awaken the ability.
But for several days, Wang Qiong didn't find anything special about this black fire.
Until one day, he slaughtered a chicken in the butcher's shop, and the black fire actually reacted, and Wang Qiong gained an ability.
Every morning at five o'clock in the morning, he must get up.
“......”
Wang Qiong was depressed, but he faintly sensed the peculiarity of the black fire.
The next day, Wang Qiong slaughtered a sow.
The black tinder really reacted again.
On the same day, Wang Qiong's rice volume doubled, and half a bucket of rice was licked clean by him, and even the boss was dumbfounded.
"I'll fuck you uncle!"
Wang Qiong scolded, other people's awakened abilities are all crazy and cool hanging to the sky, and the spirit of the king is leaking.
But his abilities were disgraceful, even a waste of food.
However, Wang Qiong was not discouraged, he vaguely sensed that the black fire could absorb the power of the slain.
For now, it's limited to animals.
Wang Qiong began to experiment repeatedly, and he found that the black fire was controllable, just like a part of the body.
He can absorb the capacity according to his wishes.
And once he absorbs a new ability, he can even choose to overwrite the previous one.
One day Wang Qiong slaughtered a rabbit, and he began to have a nausea against meat, and he was fond of vegetables, especially greens and carrots.
For this kind of stupid ability, Wang Qiong certainly chose to cover.
So, he slaughtered another donkey, and as a result, a part of his body became unusually large.
......
The young and ignorant Wang Qiong was extremely speechless, he felt that unless he went to be a duck, this ability was useless.
Once again, he chose to cover this particular ability.
The next day, Wang Qiong slaughtered a horse.
As a result, he found that he could only sleep standing up.
Wang Qiong completely collapsed, this bullshit fire was simply teasing him, and the ability to absorb was more and more stupid.
The summer night was irritable, and Wang Qiong went away, and he was like an orangutan who had been robbed of a banana, dancing wildly in the house.
Suddenly, he shot a mosquito to death.
Subconsciously, the black flame was running, and a terrifying ability that made Wang Qiong tremble awakened.
This terrible ability has been with Wang Qiong for two years, and it has been honed so far, and no one has seen it except the boss.
"Is it willing to have that ability, but you can only be a butcher here?" the boss's voice sounded again.
Wang Qiong turned his back to him, his eyes narrowed slightly, and a hint of coldness flashed.
"Aren't you willing to open a butcher's shop here?" said Wang Qiong.
The boss is very mysterious, and even Wang Qiong, who awakens the ability, can't see through it.
All he knew was that three years ago, when he was here, the butcher's shop had been open for many years.
"Young man, I am different from you, I have gained fame, wealth, women, and power, but now it is not rare. The boss smoked a cigarette, his expression ended, he raised his head to look at the moon, and pretended to be forced to come to his face, which made Wang Qiong feel sick to his stomach.
"Mom!" Wang Qiong scolded in his heart.
"We said before, as long as you can hurt a hair of mine, we will let you leave, but depending on your qualifications, you can only sell meat here in the next life. ”
The boss looked invincible in the world, and the roots of Wang Qiong's teeth itched.
"Don't say I won't give you a chance, I've found you an opponent, and if you can beat him, you can leave. The boss turned his head, looked at Wang Qiong, and accentuated his tone.
And ...... I can let you enter the Palace of Light. ”
Click......
The meat case was cut off in response, and at this moment, Wang Qiong's heart was lost, and his eyes trembled.
Endless years ago, the first batch of humans who awakened their abilities created the Bright School Palace, which has been passed down to this day, and I don't know how many strong people have been born.
In the world, every city has a Bright School Palace, which is the highest institution for cultivating fire.
But if you want to enter the Guangming Academy, the conditions are extremely harsh.
Those who have condensed the fire are only recruited under the age of 18, and those who have not condensed the fire are only recruited under the age of 15 and have good qualifications.
"You can actually recommend me to the Bright Academy Palace?" Wang Qiong was shocked, becoming more and more suspicious of the identity of the boss.
"Not me. The boss smiled and shook his head.
Wang Qiong was stunned and had to ask again.
"Your opponent is coming. ”
Clang...... Clang...... Clang......
In the night, a crisp and pleasant bell sounded, and under the dim light, two figures walked slowly.
A middle-aged man, tall and wearing a black cloak, his facial features are as distinct as those of an axe, a chisel and a knife.
He was followed by a young man with a cold expression, about the same age as Wang Qiong.
"I haven't seen you for twenty years, and I can't imagine you hiding in such a place. A cold voice sounded at the mouth of the alley.
