Chapter Twenty-Nine: Little Nick's Wish

This scene reminded Chen Xuan of a concept mentioned by the little cat lady:

[The body is the container of magic essence]

……

The wandering magic that eventually escapes after going around and around is not useless.

They subtly temper the flesh.

It's an inside-out process that requires a lot of effort.

The part of the magic that has been precipitated becomes the magic element that merges with the body.

Even if they are consumed, they will quickly recover over time or when replenished by the outside world.

When he was in the state of emptiness, the faint figure was completely filled with light gray, which meant that he had cultivated to the apex of the black iron level.

Continue to cultivate, and with the refining of free magic power, the figure will change from grayish white to pure white.

After that, the colors of green, blue, purple, orange, and gold change.

This also coincides with the color hierarchy of the magic core.

This is recorded in great detail in the "Basic Demon Element Cultivation Method".

There is no bottleneck in the strict sense of the word, the difference is the speed of absorbing magic power.

The further you go, the more mana you need to absorb and extract for each tier.

At the same time, as the physique improves, the refining effect of magic power will become weaker and weaker.

Because the carrying capacity of the body is always difficult to keep up with the improvement of the mind.

Of course, this refers to the case of the regular single cultivation of the magic element.

There is no problem with the dual cultivation of demonic martial arts, but it takes more cultivation time to cultivate both magic and spiritual power, even if you add the time saved by talent in cultivation.

Combining the two, the time it took him and ordinary single cultivators could be described as half a catty.

But the combat power that can be exerted at the same level is also a cloud of mud.

Theoretically, if you have an infinite lifespan and don't need to worry about eating and drinking, you can practice for 10,000 years in retreat, and even the most stupid guy can cultivate to become a top powerhouse.

But this assumption is like a pipe dream.

The feeling of cultivation is quite good, and the body and mind are relatively relaxed in the state of emptiness.

It's just that as the body continues to temper, there is still a slight sense of fatigue accumulating.

Rebecca is glad that her master did not dislike the environment of the Burrow.

This gives her more opportunities to spend time with her family.

And after getting along with Naroyari for nearly a year, she thinks that Chen Xuan's temperament is not bad.

Previously, Chen Xuan had said that as long as he did things for him, he would find a way to cure his mother and younger brother.

At the time, the kitten lady thought it was just a blank check, but now she suddenly saw a glimmer of hope.

Not to mention other aspects, the mere fact that the contract can be modified is enough to prove that the owner is a well-deserved potential stock!

Coupled with the fact that the heart is not bad, maybe you can really fulfill your promise!

She sat cross-legged across from Chen Xuan, looking up slightly at his face.

After staring silently for a while, she breathed a sigh of relief, and also closed her eyes and entered the cultivation state.

……

Time flies.

The false night passed, and the moonlit night came.

Before they knew it, Chen Xuan and Rebecca had been back in the Naroa world for more than thirty hours.

When Chen Xuan slowly opened his eyes, Rebecca was boiling the decoction under the hanging stove.

"Gollum..."

There was a hungry cry in the belly, accompanied by an indescribable feeling of exhaustion.

"Hmm... Rebecca, how long has it been? ”

He called softly, in fact, the process of cultivation could be interrupted at any time.

But Chen Xuan just wanted to challenge the limit of what he could withstand in a single cultivation.

So he persevered until exhaustion took over most of his senses, and his mind couldn't control his magic, and then he withdrew from his state of emptiness.

Hearing his voice, Rebecca, who was stirring in a black clay pot with a wooden spoon, quickly stopped moving.

"You're awake!"

"It's been four hours!"

"You're amazing, I've never seen anyone who has been able to cultivate continuously for so long!"

"This proves that you really have a top-level magic cultivation talent!"

The little cat lady took off her leather armor and only wore the casual long-sleeved style that Chen Xuan bought for her.

Her sleeves were rolled up, revealing her fair, smooth arms.

"Well, it's been long enough..."

"I'll have to get out and make it easier."

Chen Xuan rubbed his face, got up slowly, walked out of the shack with exhaustion, and found a corner to discharge the burden of his body.

Outside, the sky was full of stars, but Ratton Alley was pitch black.

Only in the distance can there be a sparkle of fire in the core and those domed towers.

He backhanded out a few boxes of self-heating rice and a bucket of mineral water from the storage compartment before returning to the house.

"Have you eaten?"

Chen Xuan brought a large amount of food, and it was not a problem to supply the rations of several people.

saw Rebecca smile and nodded.

"We've already eaten."

She gestured to the seven or eight pieces of bread that had been laid on the rotten wooden table.

Chen Xuan let out an "oh" and prepared a late dinner, or supper, by himself.

Rebecca's mother was already asleep, and her younger brother, Nick Miri, was leaning on the edge of the bed, holding a tattered picture book in his hand, and was looking at Chen Xuan intently.

The big red eyes were full of curiosity and longing.

"Big brother..."

Nick shouted at his back.

When Chen Xuan heard this greeting, he covered the self-heating lunch box with water and material packets poured on, and slowly turned around.

"My sister said... Are you her partner? ”

"Ahem, ahem... Then you must be an adventurer too..."

"You look special, I've never seen a human like you."

Chen Xuan smiled softly, and was just about to walk over to talk to Nick.

Rebecca threw away the wooden spoon in a panic and scolded Nick harshly.

"No rudeness!"

"Use the honorific 'you'!"

She emphasized.

Chen Xuan understood that she had not told her family about the enforced slavery.

This is not good news, and it is easy to cause mood swings in my brother and mother.

Chen Xuan didn't care about this, he raised an eyebrow at Rebecca, signaling her to be calm.

At the same time, he put one hand behind his back and took out a few pieces of vacuum-packed fluffy cakes.

came to the bedside and looked at little Nick, who had just been taught by his sister and looked a little aggrieved.

"Take it, here's my gift to you."

He placed the cake in front of Nick.

Reassured, little Nick shook the cat's ears on his head.

"Thanks... Thank you big brother! ”

"Nick imagines you... You're an adventurer like your sister! ”

"This is my heart's wish!"

"But Nick is sick, and he can't calm down and practice..."

His words touched Chen Xuan a little.

"There's going to be a chance."

"As long as you don't give up hope."

……

When the dry chicken soup came out, Chen Xuan himself felt bitter.

Little Nick took it seriously, and he nodded vigorously.

"Hmm!"

"That's what my sister said."

"Nick believes in you..."

There was silence in the room, only the sound of boiling water vapor echoing.
