Chapter 4 Fragments of Hides
"Is it too early for the three of us to participate in the ritual of sacrificing the Ancient Ancestors...... Grandpa Tuoqi ...... "Su Mu was taken aback by the old patriarch Tuoqi's decision, and he stumbled a little when he spoke.
The old patriarch Tuoqi sat cross-legged on the stone chair, although his temples were gray, although his appearance was aging, his eyes were bright, and he stared at Su Mu's eyes meaningfully for a while. Then he said with a smile on his face: "Stinky boy, the little Jiujiu in your belly, will Grandpa not know?" This ritual of sacrificing the ancient ancestors was originally prepared for the juniors who have just entered the star cyclone stage, and it is also to allow you to accelerate into the one-star stage. According to some ancient texts, the earlier you participate in this sacrifice, the better the results. Grandpa once saw a ten-year-old boy cultivating a star cyclone in a large area, don't think that you can be complacent when you cultivate a cyclone at the age of thirteen, compared to some peerless geniuses in most of the three of you. ”
"What! Cultivating into a star-spotted cyclone at the age of ten? Grandpa Tuoqi, is this possible? Could it be that he has been cultivating since he was born in his mother's womb?" Xiao Fat, who was sitting on the side, exclaimed, obviously not believing this rumor. Because in the small Tuoshi tribe, the junior with a little talent will generally be around sixteen or seventeen years old when they cultivate the star cyclone. Like Su Mu and the three of them cultivating a cyclone at the age of thirteen, they are already absolute super geniuses.
"Grandpa will still lie to you? Most of those peerless geniuses, both in terms of cultivation resources and cultivation methods, are many times stronger than our small tribes. It's like the ancient gods of your cultivation are ruthless, only from the beginning to the four-star, and the cultivation method of the back five stars is even more missing, which is also the sorrow of being in a small tribe like ours......" The old patriarch of Tuoqi shook his head and let out a long sigh. In his opinion, if the three of Su Mu were able to enter the majority, they should be able to grow faster with their talents.
"Father doesn't have to be sad about this, our Tuoshi tribe can get the surname of the ancient country under the leadership of my father, which is already an extraordinary glory. For example, the two nameless tribes adjacent to us have been destroyed by the attack of brute beasts, and only we have been able to inherit a three-star master like our father. The current patriarch Tuoli interjected on the side, and when he saw his father sighing secretly, he couldn't help but say a few good words.
The four people, including Su Mu, talked in the patriarch's wooden house for a long time, and after the old patriarch taught Su Mu and Xiaopang some relevant matters related to participating in the sacrifice of the ancient ancestors, he let them go. Before leaving, the old patriarch specially handed over a hand-copied ancient god remnant to Su Mu, this ancient god remnant was left by the old patriarch of Tuoqi when he served in a large department, and it recorded the cultivation methods from one star to four stars. This remnant of the ancient gods was recorded on a broken animal skin, and it also recorded some of the old patriarch's experiences for various stages of cultivation, which was very practical for Su Mu, a young man who had just entered the star cyclone.
......
In a small hut in the Tuoshi tribe, Su Mu was sitting upright on his bed, holding a tattered animal skin with a slight trace of age in his hand. After returning from the old patriarch, Su Mu felt a faint pressure coming towards him.
He was born smart, and since he learned that he was picked up when he was a child, he unexpectedly paid attention to his cultivation along the way. Because he knew that in this barbarian continent, the inheritance of any tribe was related to strength. If you don't have enough strength, you may be wiped out in the rings of years.
"I didn't expect most of them to be able to step into the star cyclone at the age of ten, and it seems that this time is indeed lax. Su Mu looked at the animal skin fragment in his hand, and felt extremely familiar with every word of the ancient god's remnant recorded on it. Because when he was eight years old, he was granted this decision by the old patriarch Tuoqi as soon as his roots were firmly established, but at that time it was only passed down orally, and he did not see this animal skin fragment.
"It would take almost seven or eight years for ordinary people to cultivate this ancient god and step into this star, but it only took me five years to cultivate the star cyclone. If the cyclone does not fail, there is no hope for the stars. The ancient gods decide, one to nine stars, each additional star strength will explode, and it is said that if you cultivate to nine stars, you can step through the sky and enter the starry sky. It's a pity that our Tuo-style Ancient God Decisive only records the cultivation stages from one star to four stars, and the next five stars to nine stars are unknown. Su Mu calmed down and began to look at the first word of the animal skin fragment, scanning all the way to the end.
"Heaven and earth were opened, and the ancient ancestors were incarnated into three. One is a god, two is a demon, and three is a demon. Those who have cultivated the three veins have the opportunity to embark on the path of the ancient ancestors. The ancient gods decide, it is the method of the ancient ancestors to cultivate the gods, cultivate to the nine stars, pick the sun and the moon with their hands, and smash the stars with their fists!"
The first time he read the opening chapter of the Ancient God Duel, the vast and ancient aura came from the animal skin fragment, Su Mu frowned slightly, and a tall figure appeared in his mind.
A tall figure stood in the darkness of the universe, the stars twinkling around him. When Su Mu tried to get closer to the tall figure to see his face, he couldn't see his face clearly, only to see that there were nine stars in the shape of a ring at the center of his eyebrows. When the tall figure raised his hands high, his arms were covered with dragon-like thick meridians, and a wave of earthy yellow ancient god power surged on the arms of this figure, and his arms swept the starry sky, the stars burst, and the sun and moon were not shining.
"It's so fierce! Is this the power of the Ancient Divine Determination to cultivate to the extreme? No wonder Grandpa Tuoqi handed over this fragment to me, and I can't see such an esoteric anomaly at all when I teach it orally!" Su Mu withdrew from the visualization, his slender hands brushing over the soft fragments of animal skin.
"This thing can be said to be a treasure of a family's inheritance, grandpa entrusted it to me, I will definitely not live up to grandpa's kindness. Su Mu hid the fragments of the hides in the mezzanine under his bed, along with the stone jar where the fluorescent insects had been placed. He then began a day of meditation.
......
The cultivation of the ancient gods is divided into two parts: dynamic and static, and the movement is to temper the physical body with various external forces, so that the physical body can grow rapidly in the tempering so as to facilitate the accumulation of the power of the ancient gods.
The meditation part is mainly based on meditation and visualization, so that the body can feel the vitality between heaven and earth, let one's own body accommodate the vitality of heaven and earth, and promote the further growth of the physical body with the vitality of heaven and earth. After the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi enters the body, it is absorbed and tempered by the whole body and transformed into the power of the ancient gods, and then accumulates at the center of the eyebrows. Therefore, the more star points accumulate at the center of the eyebrows, the higher the achievement in the cultivation of the Ancient God Decision, but the further the cultivation of the Ancient God Decision, the more difficult it becomes, and the difficulty of cultivation increases geometrically every time it crosses a star point, and it is no wonder that the top master of the entire Tuoshi tribe is only half a step and four stars.
Inside Su Mu's hut, he was sitting cross-legged on a bed covered with animal skins, and a faint earthy yellow air flow was circulating on the surface of his body, and these earthy yellow air currents were the power of the ancient gods transformed into the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi after tempering.
The one-star cultivation stage recorded on the animal skin fragment was already very familiar to Su Mu, because he had already cultivated into a star cyclone, which could be regarded as stepping into the threshold of a one-star, as long as the power of the ancient gods accumulated in his body was sufficient, he could condense into a star and become a real one-star ancient god. However, after cultivating the Star Cyclone, Su Mu discovered that the power of the Ancient God needed to break through to the one-star Ancient God was far beyond his imagination.
"I would spare three to four hours every day to meditate on the power of this ancient god, but after cultivating for more than half a year, I haven't reached the stage of star cyclone saturation, is this ancient god really so difficult to cultivate?" Su Mu opened his eyes during the meditation, only to see an earthy yellow light flash in his eyes, and his dark pupils stared at the twilight shining through the cracks in the hut. Since noon after lunch, he began to meditate, counting the time, three hours have passed, and the sun is about to set, but Su Mu can feel that the star cyclone at the center of his brow has only grown a little.
According to the fragments, once you enter the cultivation of the last five stars, a retreat may last for several years, and compared to meditating for several hours, you are indeed lacking in patience. Su Mu's eyes flashed, and he thought about his own strengths and weaknesses. For him, who has excellent cultivation talent, the only problem is that he can't cultivate patiently and for a long time.
After all, he was only a thirteen or fourteen-year-old boy, and who of a child of this age could really calm down and cultivate? Compared to most of his peers in the Tuoshi tribe, Su Mu was already relatively hardworking.
"It's really too slow to polish the Heaven and Earth Yuan Qi to accumulate the power of the ancient gods like this. Perhaps, this ritual of the Priest Gu Ancestor will be the key to breaking through to one star!" Su Mu withdrew from the retreat, got up from the bed, and pushed the door open.
