Chapter Eighty-Nine: Secret Technique: Tempered by a Thousand Tempers!
Looking at the edge of the gift box looming behind Shi Zhen, Jiang Yifan blinked and moved two steps to the side, wanting to see more clearly, so as not to admit that he had wronged him.
But Shi Zhen immediately turned sideways, blocking the sight that Jiang Yifan wanted to throw.
Jiang Yifan moved two more steps, and Shi Zhen also continued to turn sideways.
Move again, hide again.
So Jiang Yifan sped up and ran, wanting to catch him off guard.
'Hmmm'
Shi Zhen, who originally planned to continue to turn sideways, was taken away by the old man sitting on the recliner.
"How old are you, and you're still doing things so hard."
The old man muttered and put the withered palm into the gift box.
When he opened the exquisite tea box in the gift box, smelling the faint fragrance of tea with a bit of coolness, the old man's two gray eyebrows couldn't help but raise: "Yo? Good tea! The seasonal summer tea produced by the Wei-level 'Baihan Tea Spirit'. β
[White Cold Tea Spirit, a C+-level wood-based demon spirit with dual attributes of wood and ice. γ
[Looks like a little doll draped in frost-white foliage.] After the tea leaves on the body are picked, they can be made into tea and drunk after a special process, which has the function of clearing heat and reducing inflammation, awakening and relieving heat.
The combat ability is not strong, and it is generally an agricultural or medicinal demon spirit. γ
[Its pre-form is a D-class 'Little Tea Spirit']
[In addition to being able to evolve into the 'White Cold Tea Spirit', the Little Tea Spirit also has other evolutionary forms, namely: 'Green Tea Spirit', 'Rotten Yellow Tea Spirit', 'Afternoon Black Tea Spirit', and 'Black Moon Tea Spirit'. γ
"Since it's to visit your old man's home, why don't you bother to think about it?"
Feeling Jiang Yifan's resentful eyes staring at him, Shi Zhen sneered weakly.
"The horn is wrong~ I like the old man this time."
The old man nodded with satisfaction, turned his head and shouted at the top of his voice: "Giant Steel Shield Turtle!" I'm going to help make some tea! β
"Uh..."
Not far away, in the shade of a tree, a tortoise the size of a face disc, like a stainless steel tortoise, reluctantly opened its languid eyes and walked slowly towards it.
[Giant Steel Shield Turtle, B+ Rank Gold Demon Spirit]
[It looks like a tortoise made of steel, but if you look at it from above, you will see that its shell is shaped like a shield, and its size is very large, hence the name.]
The shell of the turtle alone is hard enough, not to mention the metallic keratin on the forehead and the joints of the limbs.
The Giant Steel Shield Turtle Clan, whose defense is already among the best among all the gold-based demon spirits, also has a special racial ability called 'Sudden Sense', and the body's perception of pain is very slow, making it a natural choice for the 'Meat Shield' demon spirits. γ
[Its pre-form is a C-level 'small steel shield turtle']
"Old man, isn't this a 'little steel shield turtle'?"
Looking at this little guy who didn't have anything to do with the word 'giant', Jiang Yifan couldn't help asking.
There is almost no difference between the giant steel shield turtle and the small steel shield turtle in appearance.
But it's not hard to tell them apart, because there is a considerable difference in body size, so big that anyone who is not blind can tell them.
"No, no, no, it's the 'Giant Steel Shield Turtle'."
The old man waved his hand, "You can't just look at the surface, you have to look through the phenomenon... Huh? β
As he spoke, the old man was stunned.
After staring at Jiang Yifan's somewhat familiar face carefully for a while, he asked, "Are you Jiang Jieping's grandson?" β
"That's right."
Jiang Yifan nodded obediently.
In this kind of small village, there is no one outside the neighborhood who does not know each other.
Jiang Yifan, who grew up in the city since he was a child, every time he returned to the countryside, there would be old men and old ladies he didn't know, asking him who his father was and who his grandfather was, so this kind of thing is no longer strange.
"I hugged you when you were so old."
The old man grinned and reached out to make a baby-sized silhouette.
"Yes, I remember this clearly, and I was still smiling at you at that time."
Faced with this conversation that I don't know how many times I have listened to, Jiang Yifan nodded and cooperated with the nonsense.
"Your old Jiang family is really carved out of a mold."
Listening to him running the train with his mouth full, the old man couldn't help but shake his head with a smile, "Your father said the same thing to me when he was the same age as you. β
At this time, the huge steel shield turtle the size of a basin had also walked to his side.
"Didn't you just ask, why isn't it a little steel shield turtle?"
The old man patted its cold and hard metal turtle shell, "Come, I'll drop a good turtle, let's wipe our buttocks with gauze, and show him a hand." β
(βγΈβ): You old Biden, there are so many things...
The giant steel shield turtle glanced at the old man with disgust, but because of the presence of outsiders, it still gave the old man who had been with him for decades enough face.
After all, in a few years, I may have to send him away...
"Suck-"
I saw that the giant steel shield turtle took a deep breath, and there was a crisp sound like a 'crackling' popping beans on its body.
Then, like a balloon, it grows in size at a speed that is visible to the naked eye.
In an instant, it rose from a stainless steel basin to a small bunker as high as a bungalow, worthy of the word "giant" in the name.
[Secret Technique: Tempered by a Thousand Tempers!] γ
[Improved on the metal-based skill 'Metal Transformation', which no longer simply changes the shape of some limbs when the skill is cast.]
Rather, it can compress its own volume, like a piece of iron that has been tempered and extremely shrunk. γ
"Sleep... trough..."
This shocking scene made Jiang Yifan's chin wide open, and his eyes flashed with longing.
Coach, I want to learn this!
"Don't think about it, you can't learn this 'secret skill'."
Shi Zhen raised his hand to help him close his chin.
"Why can't you learn?"
Jiang Yifan rolled his eyes angrily, "Do you know how hard my snake master works?" β
"Some things can't be accomplished by hard work, but also by talent, the giant steel shield turtle has a racial ability 'sudden sense', but your red copper snake doesn't, and it can't withstand the pain of secret skill cultivation."
Shi Zhen patted his little head lightly and looked at the old man, "Let me introduce you, this old gentleman is the former instructor of your Lingfeng Middle School Martial Arts Club, and also my instructor at that time, Wu Zirconium." β
"Your instructor at the time?"
Jiang Yifan was a little surprised, "That means that you used to study in Ling Feng?" β
"Yes."
"Then your physique, weren't you a school bully at that time?"
β...β
Faced with Jiang Yifan's out-of-the-box thinking, Shi Zhen couldn't help but be speechless for a while.
"What a bully in school, he used to be as thin as a bamboo pole, how can he be as strong as he is now."
Wu Lao laughed, "At that time, in order to let him grow more meat, I forcibly fed him with a spoon at every meal. β
"Ahem!"
Shi Zhen's old face was slightly red and coughed lightly, and he quickly turned the topic back to Jiang Yifan: "Didn't I say yesterday that I wanted to take you to meet someone?" In fact, it is Teacher Wu. β
"Didn't you say that my snake master can't learn this secret technique that changes everywhere?"
Jiang Yifan was puzzled, "Then why do you still want to bring me here?" β
"Naturally, I'm taking you to learn something else, about the deeper use of 'psychic skills'..."
