Chapter 14: Embarking on the Path
Zhao Kuo used his mortal body to kill the demon beast snake Jiao in the Demon Pill Period, and in the end, under Zhao Tianyang's instructions, there was no rumor.
In addition to the person concerned, Zhao Kuo, the only people who knew were Zhao Ling'er, who witnessed everything that happened, Zhao Tianyang and Zhao Yuanhe, who rushed to the scene later, and Zhao Dongsheng and Lu Xue, who learned everything from Zhao Ling'er's mouth afterwards.
Zhao Kuo and others don't have any opinions on this, anyway, no one will believe this kind of thing, and it is estimated that the possibility of being ridiculed will be greater.
On the contrary, it was Zhao Ling'er, who refused to agree at first, and insisted on telling others about Zhao Kuo's heroic deeds. But in the end, under Zhao Tianyang's long-term prestige, she had to do what Zhao Tianyang told her. It's just that in the face of Zhao Tianyang, she started a cold war.
After witnessing the fierce battle that made Zhao Kuo very forced, Zhao Linger successfully created the completion of Zhao Kuo's system side quests.
"Current number of pretensions: 1/10. The number of high-profile people that year: 1/100. ”
It can be said that Zhao Kuo can smoothly make progress in the side tasks of the system, and Zhao Linger has to take the first credit.
Maybe it's because of this that Zhao Linger wants to show off Zhao Kuo's awesomeness to others! Just like fans always want to boast to others about how good the stars they chase are.
"Okay, Ling'er, don't be angry, if you're angry, it won't look good. Zhao Kuo teased Zhao Ling'er's puffed smile with a hippie smile and said.
Zhao Ling'er glanced at Zhao Kuo angrily, and then was angry: "Brother, Ling'er is holding grievances for you, Ling'er doesn't know why you don't care about your face, brother?"
"Ling'er, even if my brother cares, how many people will believe this kind of thing? If you hadn't witnessed all this happening with your own eyes, I guess you wouldn't believe that I really defeated a demon beast in the Demon Pill Stage with a mortal body, right?" Zhao Kuo asked Zhao Ling'er with a smile.
Zhao Linger knew that what Zhao Kuo said was right, but this was not enough to make Zhao Linger give up his obsession.
"Ling'er knows what my brother said, but Ling'er still feels that my brother is too wronged. ”
"Silly girl, where can my brother be wronged!" Zhao Kuo scolded with a smile.
Zhao Kuo also knew that Zhao Ling'er needed to be given a little time to figure it out, so he didn't continue to say anything.
Although there is no rumor about this incident, the corpse of the demon beast of the Demon Pill Stage of Snake Jiao is genuine.
For a family, the corpse of any Demon Pill Stage Demon Beast is worth a lot. Zhao Kuo dedicated the body of this demon pill stage snake Jiao to the Zhao family, so it was naturally impossible for Zhao Tianyang not to say something to Zhao Kuo.
With this incident, Zhao Kuo enriched his small treasury a little.
It's just that because Zhao Kuo is not a cultivator, Zhao Tianyang's compensation by Zhao Kuo is mostly in gold coins and some elixirs, magic weapons, and magical spells that can be used by cultivators in the Qi refining period and foundation building periods.
Although these rewards are not very good, and they can't even be exchanged for large amounts of energy value, they are undoubtedly the most suitable for Zhao Kuo at this moment.
Among them, the most satisfying thing for Zhao Kuo is the space ring that stores these rewards, although it is only a few cubic meters in size, but it is enough for Zhao Kuo now.
At least in the future, if Zhao Kuo goes out, he won't have to worry about not being able to take too much with him.
In fact, in terms of the value of the demon beasts in the Demon Pill Period, these rewards can't be put on the table at all. However, Zhao Kuo didn't care too much about the gains and losses, after all, he still had to rely on the big tree of the Zhao family to live well, and now it was natural to give this big tree a little fertilizer.
In addition to these rewards, Zhao Kuo also got the red bead among the two beads that Zhao Ling'er found in the Baishuitan.
Even Zhao Tianyang didn't know about the existence of this red bead, and Zhao Ling'er deliberately left it for Zhao Kuo.
As for the blue bead that caused the water in Baishuitan to turn into Xuanyin real water, although Zhao Ling'er handed it over, in the end, the bead returned to Zhao Ling'er's hands intact.
Of course, the Xuanyin Bead that returned to Zhao Ling'er's hand was the Xuanyin Bead that had been refined by Zhao Tianyang, otherwise, the Xuanyin Qi contained in the Xuanyin Bead alone would be able to freeze everything around him, including Zhao Ling'er, into ice.
As Zhao Ling'er said, this Xuanyin bead is very good for her physique, and Zhao Tianyang specially explained that Zhao Ling'er should take it with her.
As for the red bead, Zhao Ling'er wanted to hide it from Zhao Tianyang, so she didn't know what this red bead was. It's just that as she said, when she put the Xuanyin Bead and the Red Bead together, she found that the Xuanyin Qi exuded by the Xuanyin Bead seemed to be absorbed by the Red Bead.
"It seems that this red bead is not simple. ”
After his body was fully recuperated, the next thing Zhao Kuo had to do was naturally to set foot on the path of cultivation.
Perhaps because Zhao Kuo had been in contact with the path of cultivation, Zhao Kuo followed the feeling of his body, and after only studying with Zhao Dongsheng for one day, he successfully stepped into the first layer of the Qi refining period.
"This is the world of cultivators?" Feeling the continuous eruption of vitality in his body, Zhao Kuo only felt that he was completely different in terms of essence and spirit.
Although his physical condition has not yet reached the level of a normal person, Zhao Kuo feels that he will not be too at a disadvantage even if he is alone with a normal person now.
Although this is just Zhao Kuo's feeling, this feeling is very real.
Next, with Zhao Ling'er's assistance and Zhao Dongsheng's careful teaching, Zhao Kuo's realm of the first layer of the Qi refining period quickly broke through.
Time flies, and three months pass.
In three months, Zhao Kuo had been promoted from an ordinary person who was not even in the Qi Refining Period to a cultivator at the fourth level of the Qi Refining Period.
It's not fast, but it's not slow.
"Kuo'er, your current cultivation speed is very fast, and in the entire Zhao family, there will not be more than ten people who can achieve such a speed as you in the Qi refining period. It's just that Zhao Dongsheng paused, and then said: "You started much later than others, and if you want to catch up with others, it is estimated that you have to put in more effort than others." ”
"I know, I'm not afraid of hardship. Zhao Kuo said firmly.
Zhao Dongsheng said, Zhao Kuo naturally knows that the ten-year gap is not so easy to make up.
"Now I'm just in the Qi refining period, but others are already in the foundation building period, the enlightenment period, the fusion period and even the heartbeat period or the Jindan period, such a gap is indeed not easy to make up. Zhao Kuo is very aware of the reality, but the reality is not very applicable to him, a person who has a system.
After three months, Zhao Kuo has completely accepted Zhao Kuo's family, but it is estimated that it will take a while for him to call Zhao Dongsheng as his father and Lu Xue as his mother.
In three months, Zhao Kuo is no longer skinny and skinny, and his appearance is derived from the excellent genes of Zhao Dongsheng and Lu Xue, making Zhao Kuo look like a handsome sick scholar at this time.
This point made Zhao Kuo feel tears the most.
Diao silk in the previous life, this life is finally rich and handsome, although there is still a bit of suspense on the point of height, but looking at Zhao Dongsheng's height and Lu Xue's tallness, Zhao Kuo is impossible to be too short unless he is genetically mutated.
