The Ice Blue Lake, above the small building.

Xiao Chen sat in the cultivation room, the starlight like dust looming on his skin.

He didn't move, and the glimmer of starlight fell on his skin, walking just below his skin, making him look like a glowing humanoid sculpture.

And in the midst of his sea of consciousness, his soul body was meditating hard.

"Every time I cultivate, I can only cultivate one kind of cultivation, I have been cultivating magic in the Tempest Valley, and the process of refining the body of star power has slowed down again......"

"I remember last time, because of the simultaneous use of magic and sword skills, it caused a soul split, since the attack can be done at the same time, so what about cultivation, is it okay. ”

A fantastical thought flashed through Xiao Chen's mind.

He shook at the thought that had come to him.

"Try ......" Xiao Chen's soul slowly split under his control, and while he became more and more familiar with the means of fighting left and right, Xiao Chen was no longer a stranger to splitting souls.

A moment later, two identical souls were suspended in Xiao Chen's sea of consciousness, like two poles, slowly rotating along a circular trajectory.

The feeling of soul splitting is unusually strange, as if there are two selves, but these two selves are unity.

Xiao Chen controlled the star power with one soul body, and his other soul body began to spin the mana vortex in the dantian.

At this time, Xiao Chen, who was sitting there, was surrounded by bursts of mana tides, and the wind elements in the void were all attracted and absorbed by the mana vortex in his body.

Those wind elements were many cyan points of light, but in the surrounding area, there were also many star points of light, which were star forces drawn from the sky.

These star and cyan points of light converged around Xiao Chen at the same time.

"It's really possible!" Xiao Chen was a little surprised, he could feel that this kind of cultivation was feasible, with the control method of the two souls.

However, just as he was absorbing the wind element, he didn't notice that some star power was also attracted and brought into the dantian, and those star light points were mixed with the wind element and thrown into the huge mana vortex in Xiao Chen's abdomen.

Xiao Chen's face changed suddenly!

After the mana vortex was invested in the power of the stars, it suddenly trembled violently, and a chaotic feeling came out of the dantian, and Xiao Chen lost control of the mana!

"Not good!" Xiao Chen didn't expect this to happen.

No matter what kind of mana vortex, there is a fixed energy absorption, it is impossible for the wind mana vortex to also absorb the fire element, or other elements, this is magic common sense, so Xiao Chen did not expect that his wind mana vortex would actually introduce star power into it.

The clash of alien energies will cause the mana vortex to explode.

Xiao Chen's face turned pale.

He hurriedly stopped the mantra and snuffed off the power of the stars.

However, those star powers that had been absorbed could not be eliminated at all, and they had already entered the mana vortex.

A tearing feeling came out of Xiao Chen's mana vortex, his soul merged into one, and began to suppress the mana vortex in his body with all his strength, and powerful spiritual power poured into it.

"Master, what's wrong with you?" De Knox also sensed that something was wrong and popped into his mind.

Xiao Chen didn't speak, he was now suppressing the impact of the mana vortex with all his might.

In the room, Xiao Chen's mana vortex was disturbed, and the countless wind elements that were triggered rioted in the void, Xiao Chen was a nine-star mage, his mana was extremely strong, and the wind elements of the riot violently impacted out, turning into wind blades, wind snakes, and tornadoes from time to time, impacting on the house.

Click, click, cracked, dusty walls.

De Knox hurriedly floated out, casting a dark shield, and a black light shrouded the walls, so that the house was not completely destroyed.

Countless Riot Wind Elementals slammed into the dark protection.

De Nox looked at Xiao Chen and sat there with a frown, he didn't know what was going on, but he could see that Xiao Chen was bald at this time.

He didn't dare to take the risk of going up, Xiao Chen's cultivation was different from ordinary people, and if he dared to do something, it might be bad.

The wind elemental riot continued until midnight before it gradually subsided.

Xiao Chen opened his eyes, he looked extremely tired.

"Master, what's wrong?" De Nox asked quickly.

Xiao Chen shook his head, suddenly his eyes closed, and he fell to the ground, De Nox stepped forward in shock, and found that Xiao Chen was just asleep, he sighed, and could only continue to float there, guarding Xiao Chen.

Xiao Chen didn't wake up until noon the next day.

"The hosts. "De Knox floated over.

"Old German. Thank you for your hard work. Xiao Chen said.

Seeing that Xiao Chen was intact, De Knox also put his mind at ease, didn't ask anything, and flashed into Xiao Chen's sea of consciousness and fell silent.

At this time, Xiao Chen sat there with a strange expression, sat for a while, he closed his eyes, and his mind sank into the dantian, in his dantian, a huge cyan mana vortex almost filled the entire dantian, it was originally a pure cyan mana vortex, but at this time, there were some star-like white dots scattered in the mana vortex, just like the stars in the galaxy.

This strange scene made Xiao Chen a little confused.

After he exhausted his spiritual power yesterday and suppressed the mana riot, he fell asleep without having time to observe the mana vortex, but he didn't expect the mana vortex to become like this. Could it be that this is a mutated law body? Xue Wei Xuerui's Water and Fire Tai Chi Mana Vortex is a mutated law body!

Absorbing star power into the dantian is the cultivation after the star power quenching body is completed.

Xiao Chen is only about to quench the first stage of the star power quenching body, and he still has to go through two stages before the real quenching can be completed, and then he can attract the star power into the dantian and gradually condense the star core.

But he didn't expect that after a whimsical cultivation yesterday, he caused the star power to enter the dantian in advance in such a way. And it also exists in the mana vortex, much like a mutated law body! Xiao Chen doesn't know if this is a blessing or a curse.

This is a phenomenon that has never happened before, and there is no previous experience left for him to refer to.

Xiao Chen looked at it for a while, and withdrew from the dantian, now that the wood was in the boat, it was impossible to think about returning to the original cultivation track, he could only try to see it now, this strange mutated mana vortex would bring him consequences.

He took a deep breath, and a rebellious look suddenly appeared on his face: "What's the matter, I'm afraid that you won't succeed." ”

He stretched out his hand and swirled a vortex of mana.

In his hand, the wind element quickly condensed, and a half-moon-shaped wind blade condensed and formed, rotating violently.

He looked at the wind blade, and when he looked closely, his eyes narrowed suddenly, and he saw that there were some white points of light mixed in the wind blade...... He shot towards a magic target in the training room.

Poof! The wind blade sliced at the magic target, and the value on the magic target jumped violently.

"It's slightly stronger than the wind blade I've used to wield. Xiao Chen looked at the values on the magic target and found that there was no earth-shaking change.

"It's only a little stronger. Xiao Chen was still a little disappointed, he originally expected that this mutated mana vortex would also become ridiculously strong, just like Xue Wei Xuerui's water and fire Tai Chi mutated magic body, the twins' Tai Chi mana vortex, the enhanced power was not half a star.

Xiao Chen withdrew his hand and thought.

"Perhaps, it's because the star power is not enough! Yesterday, I only absorbed such a little star power into the mana vortex, it's not completely ineffective, if you absorb a lot of star power to enter, will the effect become very strong. This thought flashed through Xiao Chen's mind.

But then, he shook his head again: "It's too risky, if it's still the same as last night, causing the mana vortex to collapse, you have to don't try." ”

He decided to give up on continuing to absorb star power to transform the mana vortex.

At this time, Xue Wei Xuerui's voice came from downstairs, Xiao Chen walked downstairs, Xue Rui was holding a food box in her hand.

"Young master, we're here to bring you food. ”

Xiao Chen smiled and nodded, went downstairs, opened the food box, there were three dishes and rice in it, Xiao Chen chatted with the two girls while eating.

"Young Master, what are you doing in the afternoon? Xue Wei said.

Xiao Chen suddenly thought of Dong Yeyu, he should have returned to the academy, he said that he wanted to see him when he returned to the academy, thinking of this, Xiao Chen said: "In the afternoon, I am going to meet someone." ”

"Who, who to see?" asked Xuerui.

"You also know this person, do you remember, we just entered the Intermediate Magic Department, in the Trial Department, there was not a man with many scars on his face who rescued you, the one named Dong Yeyu. Xiao Chen said.

"Ah, I remember, the one with sad eyes. Xue Wei Xue Rui remembered.

Dong Yeyu is indeed a very characteristic person, and anyone who has seen his eyes will probably remember him.

"Young Master, why did you go to see him?" asked Xue Wei.

"I met him in Tempest Valley, and we teamed up once, and I agreed with him to come back and see him. Xiao Chen said.

"Then I'll go too, I haven't thanked him for what happened last time. Xue Rui said.

"Young Master, can I go?" Xue Wei said.

"Okay, let's go over together. "Xiao Chen, there is no refusal.

After dinner, the three of them walked out of the small building together, and they did not hire a carriage, but walked all the way over.

Where Dong Yeyu lived, they didn't know, but they should be able to inquire, Xiao Chen took the two girls to the General Affairs Office of the Intermediate Ministry of Magic.

The Intermediate Magic Department is very free, and there is no fixed class for students, but there is a place to live, and when Xiao Chen came to the General Affairs Office, there were only a few people who looked like tutors sitting there.

Xiao Chen walked in directly with the twins.

"Who, how did you break in?" a mentor shouted when he saw Xiao Chen walking in without knocking on the door.

Xiao Chen glanced at the man and said, "I'm looking for someone." ”

"Who are you looking for?" the man asked in a cold voice.

"Higashiyayu, I want to know where he lives. Xiao Chen said.

"Ha, it's another one looking for East Night Feather. The mentor burst into laughter.

"East Night Feather. "Several tutors in the General Affairs Office have seen that Dong Yeyu's name is simply thunderous in the Intermediate Magic Department, specializing in taking on some perverted trial tasks, and especially in the first two months, Dong Yeyu has done something that shocked the academy.

He actually took back the Pure Yuan Crystal of the Lord of the Hurricane, it was a nine-star trial, the Intermediate Magic Department has been able to complete this trial for so many years. Because the general nine-star mission is to challenge the existence of a mage and a sword master.

The Crystal of Pure Yuan is an existence comparable to the Demon Core.

Dong Yeyu actually completed the task of the Pure Yuan Crystal Trial, wouldn't it be earth-shattering, it is said that even some of the old antiques of the academy were shocked.

So, none of these mentors didn't know about Dong Yeyu.

The tone of the person who was indifferent just now also softened slightly, and asked, "Who are you and what are you looking for him?"

"I'm a friend of his. Xiao Chen said.

"Friend?" the tutor smiled noncommittally: "He may not be in the academy, but now Dong Yeyu is a big celebrity in the academy, and it is said that he will be specially recruited into the inner courtyard." ”

The tutor's tone revealed some envy, even jealousy.

Inner Court Special Recruitment, what a shocking term, these instructors, although all of them are high-level mages, but they are all older, more than twenty-five years old, it is impossible for them to enter the Inner Court.

"You give me his address, and I'll go and see. Xiao Chen insisted.

"Okay. The mentor gave an address.

Xiao Chen walked out of the general affairs office with the twins and went to Dong Yeyu's dormitory. Then they went, and sure enough, they didn't see Dong Ye Yu, according to the people in Dong Ye Yu's dormitory, Dong Ye Yu usually doesn't live here at all, and no one knows where he lives.

Xiao Chen returned to Xiaolou and didn't take this matter to heart, he went to see Dong Yeyu on a whim.

In the cultivation, time flew by for another two days.

On this day, it was the much-anticipated assessment of the inner courtyard, and early in the morning, Xue Wei Xuerui came over to call Xiao Chen.

Xiao Chen put on the school uniform and walked downstairs, completely different from the slight nervousness and excitement on the faces of Xue Wei Xuerui and the others, Xiao Chen was very calm, just like usual.

Although I have long heard of the name of the inner courtyard of the academy, it is said that the inner courtyard is a place where real geniuses gather, and it is the most desirable holy place for young and powerful people in the entire empire. Entering the inner courtyard is equivalent to pre-purchasing a ticket to the strong, and almost any force will respect you because of your identity.

However, Xiao Chen is still calm, this is the strong self-confidence brought by strong strength, he does not have any nervousness about this assessment, if even he can't enter the inner courtyard, the entire outer courtyard, who can?

Jia Luoxue was also there, her face was pale, since she got Xiao Chen's elemental crystal nucleus that night, she had been cultivating without leaving home, it had been three consecutive days, and today was the first day to go out.

Xiao Chen glanced at Jia Luoxue and knew that she had not broken through.

Jia Luoxue seemed to understand the meaning of Xiao Chen's glance, and said with some loss: "I...... Still failed to break through. ”

"Sister Jialuo, don't worry, you will definitely be able to break through, this year's assessment will be an experience, and it will be the same if you enter the inner courtyard next year. Xue Wei comforted on the side.

"Well, what you are missing now is not mana, but some comprehension, cultivation is gradual, it comes naturally, you are in a hurry, these days you are desperately absorbing the power of crystal nuclei, but you don't pay attention to perception, it's useless, I think you don't use those crystal nuclei, first calm down and cultivate yourself for three months." Xiao Chen said lightly.

Jia Luoxue's heart was shocked, Xiao Chen's words made her understand that she was in too much of a hurry, and the more she wanted to break through before the assessment, but on the contrary, she had been flustered in her cultivation for the past few days, and there was no sign of a breakthrough at all.

Maybe Xiao Chen helped her too much, so she was a little carried away, and she couldn't grasp her state of mind.

Breaking through from four stars to six stars in half a year was unimaginable before, and it was this rapid progress speed that made her get carried away, after Xiao Chen gave her the crystal nucleus, she couldn't wait to hit the seven stars, thinking that she would definitely succeed, but the result was more than worth the loss.

She suddenly came to her senses, looked at Xiao Chen, and said ashamedly: "I know, it's me who is too impatient, those crystal nuclei, I will wait until I break through the Seven Stars before using them." ”

Xiao Chen nodded, Jia Luoxue was able to wake up so quickly, it's good.

The four of them walked out of the small building and headed to the Intermediate Ministry of Magic.

On the road, the flow of people was turbulent, there were too many people, shoulder to shoulder, and it was almost impassable.

"That's a lot of people. Xue Wei Xuerui watched in the crowd, and there was a commotion all around.

They followed the flow of people all the way to a huge square, and on the square, there was a sea of people, and there was no end in sight.

Everyone who enters the plaza must receive a numbered plate at the door, and they need to pass identity verification, and only students of the Intermediate Department of Magic can enter.

Xiao Chen and the three daughters all received C plates, and they shuttled through the square and came to Area C.

It's just a C area, it is estimated that there are tens of thousands of people, students of the Intermediate Ministry of Magic, accumulated over the years, there are too many, this time the inner courtyard assessment, all of them will come, of course, most people, just hold a psychology of watching the excitement or increasing knowledge.

The assessment of the inner courtyard is too strict, just the threshold of more than seven stars and under twenty-five years old is enough to brush off ninety-nine percent of the people here.

The square is divided into ten large areas, each of which is in charge of a mentor, and the ten districts surround a huge circular platform in the middle, and on top of the high platform, there is a high platform, and then there is a high platform above.

These layers are the three stages of the inner courtyard assessment.

Only by passing an assessment can you go to a high platform.

At this time, on the top of a high platform, there were some people standing, these people, looking down at the countless students who were densely packed like ants below.

These people are not very young, and many of their beards are white, but if they see the robes they are wearing, I am afraid that everyone will be shocked, on their robes, without exception, are all shining silver stars, which means that every one of them here is a supreme mage, if Xiao Chen looks up, he can find a familiar figure, the dean of the outer courtyard, Rice.

"In recent years, the quality of the students who have been assessed in these outer courts seems to be not good, I hope that there will be a few powerful newcomers this year, otherwise they will all be overwhelmed by those students in the empire. An old mage with dark skin and an extremely dignified look glanced down and said lightly.

"I've heard that there is a good one this year, named Dong Yeyu, who actually completed the Pure Yuan Crystal Trial?" said a smiling, chubby mage.
