Chapter 4: A Three-Month Lockdown?
"No wonder it is said that the lucky ones who awaken the martial soul have the talent to cultivate! That's a big gap! ”
Jiuqiu couldn't help but sigh secretly.
In his memory, before awakening the martial spirit, he used the Tiger Demon Body Refining Fist to cultivate, but its efficiency was only equivalent to efficient physical training at most.
And now.
The martial soul is like a transformer, the nutrition of the qi and blood pill is equivalent to the raw material, and the large stream of heat transformed by the martial soul is the final product, which can be directly used to strengthen the body and turn into true qi for storage.
The former is like a rickshaw.
The latter is the equivalent of a sports car with a top-of-the-line engine, and the speed of the two is not comparable.
"This is only a yellow-level top-grade spirit swallowing python, if it is promoted to the heaven level, or even the god level, wouldn't it be possible to increase the cultivation speed by hundreds of times?"
Thinking of the decisive plundering of the Spirit Devouring Python just now, Jiuqiu couldn't help but secretly rejoice.
Although his natal martial soul refining soul tripod is a heaven-level lower grade, he has all kinds of magical abilities, coupled with the increase in combat power, it is definitely much stronger than a low-level martial soul.
But after all, there is a specialization in the art industry, and just considering the increase in cultivation speed, the Soul Refining Ding may not be as good as the Yellow-level Soul Devouring Python.
Not to mention that the plundered Spirit Devouring Python Martial Soul can continue to upgrade until it is at the same level as the Natal Martial Soul and has great potential.
So, this plunder is quite a bargain!
Feeling that the Qi and Blood Pill in the Spirit Devouring Python's body was still being digested, Jiuqiu simply continued to cultivate the Tiger Demon Body Refining Fist to further accelerate the cultivation efficiency.
But he hadn't cultivated for a while.
There was a clear sound of footsteps outside the door, and then a voice that was neither humble nor arrogant sounded.
"Young Master Jiuqiu, the patriarch asks you to come over immediately!"
Ling Jiuqiu's eyes moved slightly:
"It's finally here."
He immediately stopped what he was doing, calmly walked out of the door, and left with the servant who had come to give the order.
……
In a spacious and bright study.
Ling Jiuqiu saw the familiar and unfamiliar figure in his memory.
"I've seen my father!"
Ling Jiuqiu bowed without humility or arrogance.
Behind the desk, there sat a middle-aged man in a royal blue brocade robe, with eyebrows like swords, eyes like stars, and two delicate short beards, handsome with a hint of stability.
This person is the patriarch of the Ling clan, Ling Feihong.
He frowned slightly, looked at Ling Jiuqiu with a somewhat solemn expression, and said in a deep voice: "You killed Ling Guanghua?" ”
"Yes."
"Why did you kill him?"
"He almost killed me, so I took advantage of the awakening of the martial spirit, so I naturally had to fight back as soon as possible, but I didn't control the strength of the shot."
Ling Jiuqiu's expression did not change in the slightest, and replied lightly.
Feihong frowned.
According to the detailed information he received, Ling Jiuqiu threw a total of six punches, the first three punches defeated Ling Guanghua's resistance, and the last three punches killed the opponent.
This is obviously not the reason for not being able to control the power well.
It is clear that they intended to kill each other.
But Ling Feihong didn't mean to debunk it for the time being, but asked, "What level of martial soul have you awakened?" ”
"Prefecture-level high-grade."
After Ling Jiuqiu finished speaking, he used a small amount of True Qi to stimulate the Soul Refining Ding in his mind, and then, a mini five-legged small Ding mark gradually appeared in the center of his eyebrows.
And its color darkens little by little.
From white at first, it gradually changed to light blue, then sky blue, and then dark blue.
Under Ling Feihong's gaze, the small tripod mark in the center of Ling Jiuqiu's eyebrows finally turned into a verdant dark green.
"Prefecture-level high-grade ......"
Ling Feihong couldn't help but murmur softly.
This way of manifesting the mark in the center of the eyebrows is a means that is instinctively mastered after awakening the martial soul, and it can show your martial soul to others.
By the color of the imprint, you can distinguish the level of the martial spirit.
White is a yellow-level martial spirit.
Blue is a Xuan-level martial spirit.
Green is a prefecture-level martial spirit.
Gold is a heaven-level martial soul.
Of course, the manifestation of the martial soul imprint is the way to stimulate the martial soul through true qi, so as the master, it can indeed be controlled to a certain extent.
For example, Ling Jiuqiu's approach, such an incomplete activation, the level of the martial soul mark manifested will be lower than the real situation.
And disguised as a high-level martial spirit, you can't do it.
Therefore, the moment he saw Ling Jiuqiu's eyebrows, Ling Feihong immediately believed that Ling Jiuqiu was indeed a ground-level top-grade martial spirit.
But what he would never have imagined was.
Ling Jiuqiu, who was accustomed to acting cautiously in his previous life, would never fully expose his hole cards before he had enough self-protection ability, so he deliberately suppressed it.
"Not bad, not bad!"
Ling Feihong's face just showed a hint of joy, sighed, and then thought of something, and his smile suddenly retracted.
"Although you fought back only after being provoked, and you didn't intend to kill someone, but after all, you killed Ling Guanghua, and I must give an explanation to the clansmen and the clan rules."
Ling Feihong looked solemn and said in a straight voice:
"I will ban you for three months, and the regular money will be cancelled during this period, do you have any objection?"
Ling Jiuqiu's eyelids drooped: "No." ”
For what he committed, this punishment is not heavy, it can even be said to be light.
But at this time, when he had just given a battle post to Ling Bailong, the punishment of being grounded for three months was almost equivalent to making him give up the battle.
This is enough to show Ling Feihong's attitude.
Ling Feihong seemed worried that he didn't understand the meaning, and added: "Don't have any more conflicts with Bailong, you are his brother, you must know how to be humble, understand?" ”
Ling Jiuqiu's expression was still calm: "Understood." ”
Seeing that he didn't eat oil and salt, Ling Feihong had no choice but to shake his head helplessly, waved his hand and said, "Go down." ”
Ling Jiuqiu left in silence.
After the door closed gently, Feihong sighed lightly.
"One door and two tigers are originally a great thing, but Jinghan can't tolerate you, so I can only wronged you."
Jinghan is the second lady.
In the eyes of Ling Feihong and the six elders, Ling Bailong, who awakened the heaven-level martial spirit, was the hope for the rise of the Ling clan, so as long as there were no issues of principle, everything had to make way for Ling Bailong.
Even if it was his eldest son Ling Jiuqiu.
After another while, Ling Feihong shouted softly outside the door: "Jiang Hai!" ”
A burly figure walked in and bowed slightly in front of the desk: "Patriarch! ”
The man was nearly two meters tall, as burly as a bear, with his arms hanging down at his sides, like two stout maces.
He is Ling Jianghai, the chief steward of the Ling Mansion, and has been following the patriarch Ling Feihong for more than twenty years, and his strength has reached the peak of the True Qi Realm, in the entire Ling clan, except for the patriarch and the six elders, he should be among the top.
Martial arts practice, based on the body quenching realm, simply tempering the body and polishing strength, is not even a formal martial artist.
Once the martial soul is awakened, it can automatically transform qi and blood into true qi, so that the martial arts can be advanced and become a formal martial artist.
The first order of martial arts, called the True Qi Realm.
Refining qi and blood into pure true qi not only greatly enhances the explosive power of the physical body, but can also be used to activate the martial soul many times in battle.
The second order of martial arts, called the Spirit Sea Realm.
Opening up the spiritual sea at the dantian can accommodate a large amount of pure true qi, and has more powerful explosive power and defense, as well as endurance.
The third order of martial arts, called the innate realm.
The purity of true qi is extremely high, it can be released from the body, and the ability of the martial soul is further strengthened.
The gap between each level is like a moat.
In Eternal Spring City, except for a few Spirit Sea Realm powerhouses, most of the martial artists stayed in the True Qi Realm, and more were just ordinary people.
Ling Feihong said lightly: "Send someone to guard outside the Jiuqiu Courtyard, don't let him come out, and don't let anyone in, until the annual big competition is lifted." ”
"Understood!"
Ling Jianghai nodded.
At this moment, there was a faint commotion outside the door.
Both of them are strong martial arts powerhouses, so they can naturally hear the words "Ling Guanghua" and "uphold justice" mentioned in the words.
Obviously, the person who came was the family member who learned of Ling Guanghua's death, and came to ask the patriarch for an explanation.
