Chapter 7: Secret Techniques and Farewells
It's already afternoon, and Blackstone Town has a vibrancy that is not a border town at all, with people coming and going in the streets, and all kinds of characters are mixed in and out of it. The noise was heard far away, and the sound seemed to shake even the dust on the ground.
But this had no effect on the snow wind upstairs at the grocery store not far away.
One reason is because Xue Feng has lived here since he was a child, and if he hadn't trained a thick nerve, Xue Feng would have died of exhaustion due to lack of sleep.
Another reason is that Yukikaze is so tired. Since he came back yesterday afternoon, Xue Feng has been cultivating, and he didn't break through to the sixth level of the Force until the middle of the night, and then he had to stabilize his foundation again, and he tossed until dawn, and Xue Feng fell asleep. After most of the day's running and a whole night of cultivation, Xue Feng slept until the afternoon before waking up.
Xue Feng hadn't eaten anything since noon yesterday, and with the constant running and cultivation, Xue Feng's hungry chest was pressed against his back.
Snowwind walked down the dilapidated staircase, and Daddy Goode was still lying on the worn-out chaise longue. Xue Feng has no hope that his father will cook for him, because Xue Feng has never cooked since he was a child. Both of them bought food.
When Xuefeng was young, Dad would give Xuefeng money to buy food, but since Xuefeng had income, Dad never gave him a penny, and his stingy nature was unobstructed.
Walking out of the grocery store, Snow Wind headed for the noisy streets, and now he needed to find himself some food.
Soon after, Yukikaze returned to the grocery store with a piece of dry food in his hand and a piece in his mouth.
The price of things in Blackstone Town is really expensive, a piece of dry food costs a silver coin, and the taste is not very good. But who called Blackstone Town too barren and remote, Blackstone Town itself does not produce food, and the cost of transporting food here is high, so it is natural that the price of food is high. Everyone's selling price is like this, and there is no way to be expensive.
"It's time for the sixth level of the Force!" asked Daddy Goode when he saw Yukikaze return.
"Hmm" Xue Feng only cared about eating the dry food in his hand, and only replied simply.
Father Goode didn't care either, and said to himself: "It's not bad to reach the sixth level of the Force at the age of sixteen. Back then, I also reached Force Level 6 very early, and then went out to practice. ”
"Boy, now that you have reached the sixth level of the Force, I will not care about you in the future, and now you can go out of Blackstone Town to experience. Daddy Goode turned to Yukikaze and said.
"What... What, I can get out. Xue Feng was so surprised that he couldn't even bother to eat dry food.
"Didn't you let me out of Blackstone Town before?" Xue Feng asked rhetorically, remembering the experience of sneaking out a few times in the past.
"What do you kid know, I didn't let you out to protect you before. Daddy rebuked.
"The outside world is very big, and there are many strong people, you kid has cultivated the Dark Force, and those who are a little stronger can see through it at a glance, aren't you going out to find death?" said Daddy again.
"Then why are you letting me out now?" asked Yukikaze.
"The most gorgeous flowers will never bloom in the greenhouse, the real strong are trained in continuous grinding, stay here all the time, your achievements will never be high. Moreover, I have a secret skill in my hand, which can only be cultivated until the sixth level of the Force, which can help you hide the Force. Daddy said flatly.
"Why didn't you give me this good thing earlier, it's still your son, where is the secret technique? "The snow and the wind are overwhelming.
"Hmph, if it had been given to you earlier, your kid would have broken through to the sixth level of the Force in spite of the foundation. Where is the secret technique? Haha, how can there be a good thing in the world that falls from the sky, four hundred gold coins, one hand to pay and one hand to deliver. Father Goode looked at Xue Feng with disdain.
"Hey, Daddy, I'm your son, how can you trick me. So, cheaper, how about two hundred gold coins?"
"If you say four hundred, four hundred, not a penny less, if you kid is reluctant to pay, don't buy it, and stay in Blackstone Town honestly for me in the future, don't think about going anywhere." "Daddy Goode knew that Xue Feng wanted to leave Blackstone Town, so he shamelessly threw out a killing move.
Seeing his father like this, Xue Feng's face instantly fell, and his happy mood of knowing that he could leave Blackstone Town was also diluted a little.
Xue Feng has saved some money over the years, but it is not much, after all, there has always been exploitation and oppression by Daddy Goode.
Reluctantly paid four hundred gold coins, and Xue Feng got a piece of torn paper from his father, which was very wrinkled and missing a corner. Xue Feng was sure that this dad must have been looking for a piece of torn paper.
On the paper, it is a very scribbled picture of the human body, and there are some meridians of the human body. Although the painting is very sloppy, the meridians are very clearly expressed, so that people can understand it at a glance.
Xue Feng knew that the meridians shown on the map were the meridians needed for the secret technique, and if he could open it up and let the Force flow according to this route, he would be able to conceal the Force.
"What's the name of this secret technique? Xue Feng asked when he got the secret technique.
"You kid asks so much why you can't use it. Daddy ran away, unwilling to answer.
Xuefeng was helpless, his father didn't want to answer, and he couldn't help it.
"Boy, are you still going out to work today?" Seeing that Xuefeng no longer asked, Dad quickly changed the topic.
"No, I want to hurry up and cultivate this secret skill, and strive to get out of the sea of suffering as soon as possible and leave Blackstone Town. Yukikaze replied.
After saying that, Xue Feng walked upstairs. He had slept for most of the day just now, and his energy was abundant, and the Force had recovered sufficiently, just in time to cultivate the secret technique.
Sit cross-legged on the bed again, run the nameless exercise, and circulate the force, so that the force goes towards a meridian pulse that has not yet been opened. This meridian is one of the meridians needed to operate an unknown secret technique. After Xue Feng read that piece of paper just now, he remembered the meridians on it, that is, that piece of paper was useless to Xue Feng.
In the human body, the meridians extend in all directions, and there are countless of them. The Force cannot flow from the meridians casually, it must run according to a certain line, otherwise it will cause the Force to get out of control. At the least, it can injure people, and at worst, it will cause people to lose their cultivation and even die. Therefore, to cultivate exercises and secret techniques, we must open up specific meridians and circulate in specific routes.
Fortunately, the meridians opened up by cultivating this secret technique are only a little remote, and it is not difficult to get through. It didn't take long for that meridian to be opened by the snow wind......
Three days later, Yukikaze walked out of the grocery store and headed for the noisy street market.
He'd finished cultivating that unknown secret technique and was about to leave here, and now he needed to say goodbye to a friend.
It didn't take long for Snow Wind to walk past the crumbling fence of Blackstone Town with a paper bag in his hand, towards an even more barren place.
That's right, Xuefeng's friend to say goodbye to is the blood girl, and the paper bag in his hand is naturally filled with sugar.
Truth be told, things here in Blackstone are really expensive. Blackstone Town is too remote, of course there won't be any good candy, what Xue Feng is holding in his hand is just ordinary maltose, but that's it, and it cost Xue Feng three silver coins, enough for Xue Feng to sell three pieces of dry food.
Two hours later, the snow wind reached that gloomy black forest.
It didn't go too far, just on the edges, and the snow wind used the Force to shatter the blood crystal.
The Blood Clan girl didn't let Xue Feng wait too long, but in five minutes, the Blood Clan girl appeared in front of Xue Feng.
Xue Feng threw away the paper bag in his hand, went straight to the point, and said, "I'm about to leave Blackstone Town, and I'm going to go outside to practice." ”
The girl took the paper bag, ate the maltose by herself, and said, "It's okay, there is nothing to be done here after all." ”
"Did you come here to tell me that you were leaving?" asked the girl.
Xue Feng was suddenly embarrassed and said, "Haha, it's nothing, it's just that we've known each other for several years, and I don't know your name yet." Of course, if you don't want to answer, that's fine. ”
The girl continued to eat her maltose and said, "Well, it's true." You can call me Luna, you should call me Yukikaze, right? ”
Xue Feng said: "That's right, my name is Xue Feng." But, by the way, aren't you afraid of tooth decay if you eat so much sugar?"
The Blood Clan girl named Luna said flatly: "Don't be afraid, the teeth of the Blood Clan are much harder than those of humans, so you don't have to worry about this problem at all." ”
"Anyway, if you want to go out to practice, where will you go? Maybe I'll go to you, I haven't looked at the human world seriously. Luna asked.
Speaking of this, Xue Feng immediately gritted his teeth.
"Originally, Daddy Goode said that I could get out of Blackstone Town, and I thought I could soar far away. Unexpectedly, he told me again today that if I wanted to, I had to go to the White Fire Academy in the imperial capital to study, and I was not allowed to come back without graduation. If you want to find me, you can go there. ”
"Hey, by the way, aren't you a blood clan, isn't it too dangerous to go to the human world, aren't you afraid of being discovered?" Xue Feng came back to his senses and asked.
"How can it be so difficult, besides, don't you also cultivate the Dark Force? Do you really think that there are no blood clans and werewolves in the human world? As long as you cultivate the secret technique that can conceal the breath of the Force, there will be no problem. Luna said flatly.
"It's different, I've also cultivated the Force of Dawn, which can give me an extra layer of protection. "Snow Wind Channel.
"It's not so difficult to cultivate the two Forces, as long as the strength reaches a certain level, it's fine, but cultivating the two Powers at the same time is not stable, and there are potential safety hazards. Human beings are suitable for cultivating the Dawn Force and repelling the Dark Force, and we are suitable for cultivating the Dark Force and rejecting the Dawn Force. And your physique has the characteristics of both blood and human, so you are not exclusive to the Dawn Force and the Dark Force, and you can reach a stable state. ”
"Moreover, the strong will cultivate two Forces, one main and one pair, to reduce the impact of the alien Force on him during battle. Therefore, there are many of you humans who secretly cultivate the Dark Force. ”
"And I, although I major in the Dark Force, it is also essential to cultivate the Dawn Force. So, I have no problem going to the human world at all. ”
Luna's tone of voice was very flat, but what she said caused a storm in Yukikaze's heart, and he had no idea that this would be the case. There are even dark creatures in the human world, and humans will secretly cultivate the Dark Force. Yukikaze felt his worldview suddenly collapse.
Luna clapped her hands, she had already finished eating the maltose while she spoke.
"Alright, this is for you, I'll go to you if I have time. I don't know what the candy tastes like in the imperial capital of the human world. Luna waved her hand and used the Force to condense a blood-colored crystal plate and toss it to Yukikaze.
Xue Feng took it, and after a closer look, it was the secret technique that Luna used when she killed the hunting team a few days ago, and Xue Feng wanted it very much at the time, but Luna didn't give it to him.
"How did you remember to give me this?" asked Yukikaze.
"This secret technique is called "Speed Instant", it is a secret technique that instantly increases speed, although you can't exert all the power with your Force, but you can also use one or two. The outside world is too sinister, and it's still good to use this secret technique as a backup move to save your life. Luna said.
"Alright, that's all the time, I'll go first. With that, Luna turned and walked deeper into the forest.
"Thank you, when you come to the imperial capital to find me in the future, I will invite you to eat the best candy. Yukikaze waved the crystal plate in her hand at Luna's back.
After saying that, Xue Feng also turned around and walked out of the forest.
