"Where is the Heavenly Test held, and when is it?" Yi Qi raised his eyes to Shi Jin and asked. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

Shi Jin grinned: "Heartbeat, right? There is still plenty of time now, and there is still a whole month before the Heavenly Test will be held on the northern edge of the continent that the Terrans have set foot on." Although the road is extremely far from here, we have purchased a token of Xiaolai City, and with this one, we can use a large teleportation array from Xiaolai City to instantly reach the Extreme North City, a medium-sized bustling city closest to the Tianzhi location. From the Far North, it only takes four or five days to arrive. ”

Yi Xiao nodded, the edge of the northern part of the continent is not near the sea, let alone the end of the continent.

It is said to be the edge, just because it is the farthest place that the Terrans have recorded on the map, and further north, there is an unknown area that not even a small city will have, maybe the beasts are full of demons and ghosts, maybe the remote region is full of dangers, probably only the existence that needs them to look up to has the ability to explore.

"In that case, let's stay nearby for a few more days, familiarize yourself with the basic Yuan Qi technique, and master at least one or two before setting off. Yi Kui looked at the sunset with the afterglow on the horizon and immediately made a decision. The day of the sun is almost over, and the underworld beasts outside the city will also calm down, and the weak last-rank underworld beasts can be used as an excellent target for sparring the vitality technique.

To be able to greatly increase his comprehensive strength in such a short period of time, there is only the basic vitality trick.

"Haha, your strength is at least not lower than the middle level of the Second Heaven, right? It's the first time I've seen a guy like you who can gather water and manipulate it freely without even a magic jade! This kind of thing is the easiest thing for you, and every Yuan Qi master will master the magic technique. If you want to stay for a while, then I'll stay for a few more days, I over-activated a secret technique today, and I lost some essence and blood, and I originally wanted to rest for a while. How about renting a place to live?"

"It's okay, it's more convenient. ”

After that, the two of them walked together to the center of Xiaolai City.

Half an hour later, the sky was completely dark, the night sky was full of stars, and the day was finally in danger.

......

Now it is the season of spring and summer, and the flowers and trees are luxuriant everywhere, and a small mansion on the edge of Xiaolai City is surrounded by green trees, which also adds a touch of concealment to the owner of the mansion to a certain extent.

The houses in the mansion are all made of ochre-red gold-edged wood, which is warm in winter and cool in summer, and has the effect of concentrating and calming the mind, which is the best place for cultivation. On the roof lay a lazy black-haired kitten, sleeping soundly. On the old tree on one side of the house climbed a glowing red jade vine, the edge of the tree up, the vine is knotted, and the tree is connected, probably because no one has taken care of it for too long, the growth is not very pleasant, and the leaf edge is slightly yellow.

Yi Kui and Shi Jin each rented such an independent residence with a courtyard to settle down temporarily, and when they released the phantom cat from the pouch, the little guy showed great dissatisfaction with his fur, and looked very disgusted to stay in the narrow bag that did not see the light of day. Yi Kui also gave several purple berries to calm it down, and at this moment he was sitting cross-legged under the old tree with tangled roots, holding a purple thin book in his hand, which was the "Basic Yuan Qi Recipe Collection" that he had purchased for two crystal coins.

With his eyesight, he could clearly see every word on the thin book even in the faint light, and today he was ready to study these vitality recipes.

As a half-shark himself, his talent for water travel is very extraordinary, and the Yuan Qi recipe about water travel is definitely the best and easiest to master.

Although there was still a month left before the Heavenly Test, the time left for him to familiarize himself with the use was extremely limited, Yi Kui only thought about it for a while, and without hesitation, he chose to first cultivate the Yongquan Technique of the Water Restoration Type and the Stream Technique used to defend against the enemy, and also chose the Ice Pick Technique, which was second only to the Rocket Technique with outstanding attack power.

Although the ice pick technique belongs to the ice system, ice and water have always been linked to each other, and it can even be said that they are one and the same. Even if it wasn't a pure Water Movement Vitality Technique, he definitely had a higher talent to control it than the Rocket Technique and the Little Thunder Technique, which were also known for their attack power.

The first step in cultivating the Ice Pick Technique is to use the Immortal or Yang Yuan in the body to shape a cone-shaped ice in the hand.

Yi Kui mobilized the Shen Yuan around his body according to the book, and gradually gathered a stream of water in his hand, and the blue magic jade on the back of his hand flashed with a faint light, under its amplification, the consumption of the Shen Yuan was indeed much less, and the gathering of water was also much easier.

The thought burst out, from the head along the blood veins to the tips of the fingertips, and you can even feel the cold and clear thoughts sweeping all the way, every slight movement of the muscles in the body, every blood flowing, is in the mind through the projection of the mind. It wasn't until the moment it came into contact with the five fingers that the mind finally encountered the first obstacle, and a thin layer of skin was like a thick wall that enclosed the mind, and it was impossible to advance an inch.

Yi Qi frowned slightly, this situation is encountered by every Yuan Qi Master below the Triple Heaven, and the inability of the mind to leave the body does have a great impact on the cultivation of the Yuan Qi Technique. The mind can be called the third eye of the cultivator, and it is easy to shape the condensed Yuan Force under the monitoring of the mind, but it will be regarded as a difficulty for the Yuan Qi Master who has not broken through the Triple Heaven.

Although he can easily manipulate the flow of water, and even condense into various shapes, the flow of water is just ordinary water without the support of the mind, and even the Immortal Yuan can only wrap the water flow instead of integrating into it, let alone convert the water flow into ice through the Immortal Element, so the first condition for refining the Ice Pick Technique is to contact the mind into the water mass in his hand. Yi Qi closed his eyelashes, concentrated on his fingertips, and carefully sensed the skin and the water mass, while forcing the underworld into the water mass little by little, while maintaining the gathering of the water mass.

In less than half an hour, the water mass that fused most of the Immortal Yuan collapsed and scattered, sprinkling half of his body.

Yi Xiao pursed his thin, beautifully shaped lips, his expression remained unchanged, and he gathered a ball of water in his hand again and tried it.

......

Two hours later, Yi Xiao was surrounded by a cold air, the young grass that had only grown on the ground had formed a layer of ice crystals, and the ends of his own hair were also covered with frost.

In his hand, he played with a cone-shaped ice spike, about the length of a finger, and the other end was extremely sharp, cold and awe-inspiring, and the ice blue was stunning.

It didn't take him much time to complete the first step to get in shape, much faster than the one to three days mentioned above, but at this time he encountered a problem that was not mentioned in the book at all - he had no way to launch the shaped ice pick.

If the Icicle Technique doesn't fire quickly to hurt people, it doesn't make any sense at all.

Yi Kui was a little anxious in his heart, according to the book, he only needed to induce the Immortal Yuan, and at the moment after the ice pick was formed, the Yuan Force burst out in his hand as a thrust, and the ice pick could be quickly pushed out, as for the direction and accuracy, it was up to the Yuan Qi Master himself to grasp it.

However, his current situation is that at the moment of the explosion of the Immortal Yuan, the ice pick will not be pushed but explodes in place, the power is huge, but it cannot hurt the enemy and can only damage itself.

With Yi Xiao's quick reaction, he rolled away on the spot in an instant, and blocked it with a water curtain, but it was still affected to most of it.

The bursting ice slag was like a blade spinning at high speed, cutting countless wounds on his body, if it weren't for the experience and conditioning of his previous life, I am afraid that this time he would have been seriously injured. He didn't dare to use the normal ice pick technique easily, but condensed a thinner and smaller ice pick, and tried to see if it would succeed, even if it failed, the power would be even less within his tolerance.

Yi Xiao had a resolute look in his eyes, adjusted it, and once again burst out in his hand to push the ice pick.

Rumble!

At the moment when the Immortal Yuan touched the ice pick, Yi Xiao's face changed, and he retreated, and a thick water curtain immediately formed in front of him. The ice pick burst again, but due to its small size, the scattered ice slag was also blocked by the water curtain.

Yi Xiao reopened the purple thin book, read every sentence carefully, and then condensed the ice pick again and tried again.

Failure, failure, or failure......

"How could this be?" Yi Kui stood aside and muttered to himself as he looked at the ice slag and water stains all over the ground, he did follow the instructions in the book step by step, but he had no clue why this situation occurred, could it be that there was a mistake in this "Basic Yuan Qi Recipe Collection"?

So I went to the night market in Xiaolai City with doubts, bought a basic vitality recipe in a shop that looked good, and returned to my residence to compare it word by word. However, after a moment, Yi Xiao put down the two purple thin books in his hand, the Yuan Qi recipes recorded on these two books were exactly the same, if it wasn't for the two books that went wrong at the same time, the ice pick technique was indeed no problem, then the ultimate reason was still him.

With a sigh, Yi Kui decided to put aside the cultivation of the Ice Pick Technique first and try other Yuan Qi techniques.

After taking a Returning Qi Pill and resting for a while, after recovering a certain amount of Immortal Yuan, he began to study the Streamed Technique. The Streaming Technique is a complete water element, using the Immortal Yuan to condense into a stream of water to form three wide water rings around his body, the water ring has a very significant condensation effect, which can be used for defense. If it is used by the Triple Heaven Yuan Qi Master, it can be condensed directly around the enemy by mind control, which can be very effective in trapping the enemy. This is a very practical vitality trick, both offensive and defensive, and the effect is excellent.

Unlike the Ice Pick Technique, it only took less than an hour for Yi Kui to completely master the Streams Technique, and with the experience of practicing the Ice Pick Technique, he had already mastered the knack of fusing the Immortal Yuan into the water flow. With his talent for controlling water, he easily used the Stream-Raising Technique.

The Yongquan Recipe is a very mild Vitality Recipe, which is used together with wound medicine and has outstanding healing powers. Even some mild and common poisons can be used to get rid of them. Now that he has decided to participate in the dangerous Heavenly Test, he must master this Yuan Qi trick first to improve his survival rate. According to the news given by Shi Jin, the last time the heavenly test was faced with an invincible danger, then the attack power is not the most important, no matter what form this heavenly test is in, if you can heal yourself, you will have an extra life guarantee.

Yi Qi carefully read the introduction and elements of the cultivation of the Spring Technique in the Purple Skin Book, and after a while, he practiced treating some of the small wounds on his body that had been injured by the Ice Pick Technique.

For the next four days, he didn't take a single step out of the mansion, and if someone lived across the street, he could always hear the boom coming from the mansion, but as time went on, the interval between the booms became longer and longer.

At the end of the fourth day, an ice pick the length of a small arm instantly condensed in Yi Qi's hand, which burst out like thunder and lightning breaking through the air, nailed into the stone ground at the edge of the courtyard, and entered the earth for three minutes, and the surrounding ground formed a piece of frost under the influence of the ice pick. His eyes flashed, and he silently clenched his fist, and the ice pick that was nailed into the ground burst open in an instant, and the swept out of the ice slag mixed with the strong wind blew the ground into a small pit half a foot large.

Yi Xiao breathed a sigh of relief at this time, rubbed his temples tiredly, crossed a messy courtyard, and returned to the bed in the house to lie down and rest. For four days in a row, except for a short period of rest, he practiced the three Yuan Qi techniques all the time, and the one who spent the most time was the ice pick technique. In fact, he still hasn't solved the problem that the ice pick will explode at the moment of the Immortal Yuan explosion, but only postponed the time of the explosion.

Before the outbreak of the Immortal Element, he wrapped the surface of the ice pick in his hand with a thin layer of water, isolating the Immortal Element that erupted in his hand from the ice pick.

In this way, it is true that the ice pick will no longer burst, but the requirements for his water control are greatly improved, and ordinary people are afraid that it is impossible to do it, and only Yi Kui with extraordinary water control talent can control the water curtain to wrap it up when the ice pick shoots out at high speed. When the ice pick hits the target and the water curtain is removed, as soon as the erupted Immortal Yuan and the ice pick come into contact, the ice pick explodes again, and the power is huge and eye-catching. But for him, such an attack is also extremely exhausting.

Four days of practice had consumed all his energy, and he was now in a deep sleep as soon as he touched the pillow mat.
