Slowly opened his closed eyes, and his vision was hazy, as if he was in a different world.

"You're awake, congratulations, you're already a lovely man. Poof! ”

“？”

The pretended funny voice suddenly stopped, and a strange picture of a strong man lying on the ground with his ribs covered appeared in his gradually clear vision.

I just woke up from the chaos, my brain was not working, and I couldn't understand how funny this scene was, and a familiar voice in my ear came with a concerned greeting: "Sister Still, how do you feel?" ”

Following the prestige, it was a young man with blue eyes and a shawl with long hair. There is a desire to explore in his eyes, but more than that, he is worried from the heart.

"Not bad."

Instinct didn't want him to worry about himself, so he controlled the muscles at the corners of his mouth to lift up, and gave an answer with a smile.

My face is a little stiff, is it because of the cold in the room? The perception of the skin is also strange, as if being under some kind of aura that is both strange and familiar, causing the brain to not be able to correctly recognize the outside world.

There was also an inexplicable delay in the limbs, and foreign objects were mixed in the gears that should have been tightly fitted. Is it that the spirit has not adapted to the body, or that the body has not kept up with the spirit.

Without thinking too much, the waking brain begins to transmit activity instructions to all parts of the body. The fingers that received the command were slightly bent, but instead of touching the equally soft palm, the fingertips sent feedback that they had touched a hard object.

A cold breath goes up at the moment of skin contact, and there is no discomfort in the body, but there is a kind of intimate and comfortable feeling.

When I lowered my head, I saw a slender snake staff with pale stripes in indigo lying calmly in the palms of both hands. The hard object that the fingertips touched just now was the body of this snake staff.

This is my martial spirit, the snake staff I am proud of.

The smile changes from reluctance to sincerity, and as long as the snake staff is still there, there is no problem.

'Look at what you see, human. ’

The vertical pupils on the snake staff suddenly turned, just in line with the line of sight. Instantly woke up from his daze and almost threw the snake staff out.

The sound was so familiar that my stomach was churning unconsciously. But no matter how I think about it, I can't find the owner of the voice from the corner of memory.

"What are you?"

'Me? ’

The voice sounded very pleasant, with an innate arrogance, and said, 'I am the Hungry Elixir you just taken. ’

Of course, you can also call me a skull puzzle. ’

"Little San, it hurts." Gu You rubbed his ribs and got up from the ground, and said pitifully, "Let's go fishing on the weekend." ”

"Who made you talk nonsense. Also, why fishing? Tang San really couldn't comprehend Gu You's brain circuit. habitually chose to ignore it, continued to return to the topic, frowned and said, "You say, what is the situation with Sister Still?" ”

In front of him, Meng was still talking to himself to the head of the snake on the snake staff. His lips moved slightly, and his expression was unnatural, but he couldn't hear a sound at all.

"What else can it be," glancing at Meng Yi, who was behaving strangely, Gu You spread his hand and said, "The snake on the snake staff is alive." ”

"Calvary Puzzle?"

Isn't this the fairy grass you just ate, how can your martial soul claim to be a fairy grass?

And the senses are also very strange, mentally exhausted and excited, and it seems to be out of touch with the body. The only memory is before taking the Hungry Demon Pill and after waking up, and I don't know what happened in between.

'Don't think about it, human. With your narrow vision and pathetic insight, it is impossible to imagine the limits of our power. ’

The self-proclaimed existence of the "Calvary Mystery" mercilessly ridiculed, "We are the ten thousand who once were"

The voice suddenly stopped, and then, as if he had lost his spirit, he said in a hurry: "Forget it, I don't understand it." ’

"You don't tell me how I know if I understand." After replying, seeing that Calvary didn't speak, he continued to ask the question he was most concerned about: "Why did you appear in my snake staff?" ”

Because you haven't been able to get over your fears completely. ’

The skull puzzle is also speechless, and this is the first time it has encountered this kind of strange thing. Overcoming is overcoming, not overcoming is not overcoming, what the hell is this overcoming half.

An incomprehensible expression was reflected in the snake's pupils, and Calvary had no choice but to explain, "After you obey me, you will face the most fearful things in your heart. As long as you successfully pass the test of fear, you will be able to fully obtain my strength. ’

But you failed. You've managed to suppress the fear in your heart, but you've not been able to shatter it, which is why I'm here. ’

"What do I fear the most?"

That's right. If there is an entity, I can probably see the skull puzzle nodding, "but I can't say that the memories of the test have also been erased, and you can only get my full power by overcoming your fears in reality." ’

If the ontology is here, it is estimated that it can live in the sea of knowledge of this weak human being. It's a pity that I'm just a weak spirit born by accident, and it's good to have a place to live.

Life is not easy, Xiancao sighed. Calvary said helplessly, "Humans are trouble, and I don't want to stay in this hellish place for too long." ’

Also, don't expose my existence. The voice faded away, "I distorted your voice just now, and they could only see your mouth moving, and their ears could not hear anything." If you want to talk to me, just call me out in your heart. ’

"Friends?" Meng still raised his head suddenly, and saw Gu You and Tang San talking not far away. Lanta was holding a cup of hot tea in the corner, and she was also whispering to Xiao Wu.

"Yo, come back to your senses?" Noticing Meng Yi's movements, Gu You raised his eyebrows and said with a smile, "Are you done talking?" ”

Meng still nodded again and again, and was about to open his mouth to talk about the mutation of the martial soul, but was interrupted by Gu You raising his hand.

"Stop, needless to say, I know it all."

“？？？”

"It's nothing more than that the test of the fairy grass has not been completely passed, so the consciousness of the fairy grass is attached to the martial soul, waiting for you to continue to complete the assessment in the future."

Gu You waved his hand and said, "It's really boring, this section has already been played badly, can you still come up with something new." ”

This kind of self-talk that ignores others is generally the first thing to consider whether it is a dual personality. But this is a fantasy world, referring to a certain Dou Emperor when he was young, the correct answer is obvious.

'Yes, yes.'

The voice of the Calvary Puzzle suddenly appeared, and after waiting for a while and not hearing the following, Meng still asked in his heart: 'What is it?' ’

Forget it, you don't understand it. ’

“？？？”

Do you two know each other, otherwise why do you have such a tacit understanding.

Lanta and Xiao Wu surrounded him, and Dugu Bo didn't know where he suddenly appeared. Lanta asked, "Sister Still, are you okay?" ”

"It's fine."

Meng still smiled, ignoring the voice in his head, gently hugged Lanta with one hand, and whispered in her ear, "Thank you for being willing to accompany me." ”

Lanta was stunned for a moment, and said with the same smile: "I don't know." ”

Syllable!

Gu You, who couldn't understand the atmosphere, clapped his hands vigorously, laughed and said, "Okay, now that the fairy grass is eaten, let's see if there is any change in the martial soul and soul power." ”

The eldest brother spoke, and the eldest disciple Lanta hurriedly got out of Meng Yan's embrace. With a flash of brilliance, a brand new longbow was held in her hand.

The reason why it is brand new is that this bow does not have the slightest shadow of the Celestial Dome. The entire body of the bow becomes elongated, and the dark blue, which symbolizes the sky, also turns into a delicate silver-gray color. The pattern on the bow arm disappears completely, leaving only a pale golden arc dotting it.

Meng still raised the snake staff that had not been withdrawn. In contrast to the Celestial Dome Bow, the Serpent's Staff only had a little more pale stripes on the surface. The form has not changed, but there is an inexplicable trace of weird temperament.

"Okay." Gu You nodded. The exquisite longbow and the weird snake staff, both of which are rare skins, happen to be his aesthetic.

"Big brother, I'll talk about it first." Lanta spoke first, her voice trembling with excitement. She woke up earlier than Meng and had more time to understand the changes that had taken place in her body.

"The Bow of the Celestial Dome. No, it's not the Vault Bow now. With the power of the stars, the bow should also have a different name. ”

From the Celestial Dome Bow, which could only shoot attributed soul power arrows at the beginning, to the Celestial Dome Bow (Light), which evolved after absorbing the first soul ring, to the gorgeous longbow that can turn the power of the stars in the sky into arrows, Lanta looks quite excited.

The medicinal properties of the Star Luo Spirit Bead are indeed soft, but this softness is for those ordinary people. Gifts are also different from gifts, and if you want to get the most out of the gifts of the stars and fully grasp the power of the stars, you must concentrate on intercepting the light that comes out.

The more starlight you leave behind, the better the effect.

Lanta thought that at most about two-thirds of the starlight would be left, and the remaining third would only be wasted. But Moonlight Flower, the mischief of the moon god, has an unquestionable gesture that orders all Starlight to stay.

This is the only strange soul ring that does not conform to the theory of the formation of the big brother's soul technique, and there must be a big secret in it.

"Does the brilliance from the moonlight turn into the brilliance of the stars?" As Gu You expected, the Celestial Dome Bow that Lanta had changed its nature by the first soul ring was indeed very compatible with the power of the stars in the Star Luo Spirit Bead.

Although it is a bit unexpected that the martial soul has completed its evolution because of this, it is also reasonable.

On the other side, Meng who was trying to ignore the chatter in his ear still followed and said, "My words don't seem to have changed much. ”

'Hey, human, it's not all'

The voice in his head became more intense, and Meng continued, "But the power of fear I have in my hands can make anyone who sees the snake staff grow into fear. In addition to making the illusion more realistic, it can also actively apply more fear to the opponent through the illusion to shake the opponent's spirit. ”

Gu You nodded, and said without surprise: "Well, it is very in line with the requirements of illusion." ”

Almost all illusions are based on fear, and even if not the power of full fear, the bonus to illusions is immeasurable.

Sure enough, if you want to fully exert the role of the fairy grass, you must choose a martial soul with the same nature as possible. And the abundant high-quality energy of the fairy grass can also replace the role of the soul ring and achieve the conditions required for the evolution of the martial soul. ’

"Hey, what are you thinking?"

Gu You's pensive appearance made Meng still feel that something was wrong. Based on what I know about him, this guy's answer must be

"I'm wondering if your martial soul should be given a new name." Gu You's face suddenly hardened, like a thinker sculpted by Rodin, as if he was thinking about the origin of all things, or the ultimate mystery of the universe.

"What do you think of the Starry Moon Bow and the Calvary Serpent Staff?"

It's over, it's true.

Meng still slapped one hand on his face, revealing an expression of lovelessness.

I think it's good. ’

'Shut up!' ’

Just as Meng was still pondering how to divert the topic, Lanta suddenly raised his hand: "Big brother, I don't think it's very good." ”

"Atta~~"

At this moment, Lanta, who stood up against the tyranny of Gu You's name, sparkled in Meng Yan's eyes. She swore that tomorrow she would ask Sebas to find the most famous painter in Heaven Dou City, and ask him to draw Lanta and hang it on her bedside.

I only heard Lanta speak: "Sister Yi's snake staff is just a little more pale, and it doesn't reflect the characteristics of a skull." ”

"Well, that makes sense."

The so-called skull refers to the skull of a dead person. Although the snake staff has a pale pattern on it, it does not form the appearance of a skull, and it has little meaning other than to imply that it is a snake staff that has obtained the power of the skull's puzzle construction.

Gu You is not a pedantic person, and he will gladly accept reasonable suggestions. So he asked rhetorically, "Have a good suggestion?" ”

"I think it should be renamed the Snake Horror Staff."

"General."

'Rejected! ’

"Adopted!"

"I'm starving, eat~" Nibbling on the crisp and refreshing carrots, Xiao Wu walked out of the room first.

Tang San, who followed closely, looked at the sun outside the window, revealing a helpless expression.

It didn't take long for the two of them to absorb the fairy grass, but it also took a whole morning. Plus the display and renaming, and lunch time is over.

"I don't like the Calvary Snake Staff, but the White Snake can too, anyway, the effect is about the same. Although it is not white enough now, it has a good meaning, and it can evolve into a new moon and a sea of annihilation created by Heaven in the future. ”

It was another incomprehensible word, and since Meng still didn't choose his name, this fragmented thought has not stopped.

Tang San skillfully changed the topic and asked everyone, "Are you going back to the academy?" ”

The morning class should have been skipped by everyone. But the afternoon class hasn't started yet, so theoretically, as long as you run faster, you might be able to catch the bell for the end of the class.

Tang San naturally didn't go back to listen to the class, as the captain and deputy captain of the Emperor Dou Clan, he should inform the team leader when he returned to the team.

"No return." Xiao Wu didn't want to think about it, and was the first to refuse. I'm tired all this time, and I'm going back to listen to some classes.

Lanta and Meng still refused one after another. One of them was going to go to the shooting range to try out their feelings after resting, and the other was going back to the room to communicate with the new residents in the martial spirit, and they were not going to waste time going back to listen to the class bell.

"Small~Tour~"

With one hand on the shoulder of Gu You, who was about to sneak away, Tang San didn't look back, and said with a smile: "Go fishing on the weekend, don't you plan to go to the lake to see?" ”

"Yes, yes." Gu You straightened up, with a generous and righteous expression, "A real angler will never refuse his loyal dens. ”

As for Dugu Bo, no one asked. Anyway, it's either going back to the eyes of ice and fire, or going back to Dugu Manor outside the city, in short, I won't continue to stay here.

As soon as the three men walked out of the gate of the manor, they saw a black-robed man walking towards them. The strong man under the black robe stared at Tang San directly, his lips trembled, and he spit out two words: "Ah Yin? ”
