Ding Kui stood still and looked at Ding Zhong with inquiring eyes.

"Tao Mu came back, took the merchant ship of Meng, and arrived at the new wharf around noon. Ding Zhong personally came to report to Ding Kui.

"Well, very well, you go and pick him up and take him home. Since he's back, there's no need to worry, let him relax first, and tell me what to do tomorrow. I'm going out to cultivate, and if I have something important, I'll ask Miss Ao Yan to contact me. ”

Now Ding Kui's main concern is the breakthrough of magic cultivation, according to the normal progress, as long as it takes no more than ten days, it is possible for him to break through to a new realm. The affairs of Giant Sheep City were all put aside by him, and he didn't want to delay his magic cultivation because of this.

The movement of the tower mage to break through to the forbidden mage is not small, there is a legendary knight living in the house, and there is also a tower mage in the city, he must find a place away from the giant sheep city, otherwise his biggest secret will be discovered.

"Cultivating so much magic power unconsciously, normally the twelve meridians in my body can't be stored. "Ding Kui has an intuitive understanding of his own magic power when he liquefies it.

The tower mage can cast multiple fourth-level magic, and the later one is enough for a simple forbidden magic, with strong combat power. However, Ding Kui found that he could cast two forbidden spells, and there was still a little magic power left, almost twice as much as Huan Qiao.

On the third day after taking out the Green-bellied Evil Spider Emperor, Ding Kui struggled to learn a forbidden magic, the Flame Devil's Claw.

The Flame Demon Claw is a fifth-level fire magic, and the magic power is transformed into a hand of the Fire Demon Emperor, attacking a single target locked by mental power, which is advanced from the Flame Claw, which can be regarded as the simplest fire single forbidden spell.

Tai Shugong has a lot of experience with this magic, and it is also the first forbidden spell that Ding Kui can read clearly in his magic notes, and after feeling the threat of a sixth-level demonic beast, it took two nights to ponder and barely learn it.

The key to this magic is to control the claws and use simple moves, which requires the magician to know a little kung fu of fists and feet. Because Ice Roar has a low-level combat instinct and does not require a mage to know fighting skills, it is more powerful than the Fire Devil's claws.

The fist and foot exercises are not difficult for Ding Kui, and his mental power is strong enough, and he has his own plug-in to cast the Flame Devil's Claw, so he has reduced a large part of the difficulty in learning, otherwise he would not be able to draw the Flame Devil's Claw magic circle so far.

He didn't abandon his fighting spirit because of his cultivation of magic, he first practiced the authentic "Qi Transformation into a Dragon Technique" for a while, and then came to cultivate the magic power book, and then liquefied the magic power, everything went according to plan.

"It seems that the amount of mana liquefied is related to spiritual power, and today it is about one-tenth of the transformation, and it will be possible to complete all the mana liquefaction in eight days. Once again, Ding Kui, who had almost exhausted his mental power, returned to the City Lord's Mansion.

Tao Mu's experience did not surprise Ding Kui, it was nothing more than infiltrating Meng Guo under the arrangement of Cao Guotang's secret line, and then contacting Meng Guotang's dark line.

Meng Guotang's people saw that Cao Guo's colleagues had sent a fifth-level combat power, and in the spirit of not using it in vain, they arranged for Tao Mu to assist in carrying out several tasks, and later received an order from the headquarters, so they reluctantly sent Tao Mu back to China.

"Yes, it's not in vain, at least you are familiar with the secret line of the spy department on the Cao Meng border, and it will definitely come in handy in the future. Ding Kui warmly encouraged Tao Mu.

"Master, my subordinates applied to go to Cao Guo again, this time I have to establish an intelligence network, and if I can't complete the task, my subordinates won't have the face to come back to see you. Tao Mu felt frustrated, coming back this time actually meant that nothing was accomplished.

"Don't worry, Cao Guo, sooner or later, I still have to go, but now that the army is in chaos, it is very difficult to build an intelligence network, and I will talk about it after the war. You've been out for a while, so it's better to stay at home, or go back to Funiu Mountain to pick up your wife and children. ”

Ding Kui knew what the impact of the war would have on the place, and it wouldn't be of much use to let Tao Mu go to Cao Guo now.

"Thank you for your concern, since you are dedicated to developing here, then the villain should indeed take the cheap and the dog over. ”

Tao Mu's wife Liu gave birth to a son for him, and now the two are still in Funiu Village.

Shaodianluan fiddled with a "golden bamboo crossbow", because the main material is golden coral bamboo, so Ding Kui carried forward the consistent naming style and named this standard crossbow as the golden bamboo crossbow.

It took a lot of effort for her to get on the strings, and she didn't know where to shoot.

"Ma'am, shoot at the old slave. Ding Kun took more than a dozen steps back. He also felt a little threatened if he got too close.

Hey, Shaodianluan was startled when the crossbow bolt went offline.

"It's not a small power, but it's a bit hard to wind. Can an ordinary soldier pull away?" Her strength was much worse than Ding Kui's, and even with the help of a lever, it was a little difficult.

"Madam, the Golden Bamboo Crossbow is not for ordinary soldiers, Deputy Commander Zhong will specialize in training a new class of troops, and the lord will call it a crossbowman. For the sake of secrecy, crossbowmen are to be isolated from the outside world when they are trained. The old money man introduced.

"The requirements for use are so high, can a division of the regular army make up a brigade of crossbowmen?"

"The situation is different, you also know the situation of Dou Xiaoqi, the crossbow soldier does not have high requirements for martial arts, but the strength needs to be greater, in this regard, the lord took out the Ding family's body refining secret, which can perfectly solve this problem. The regular army can't learn, they don't have that condition. "The old money man deliberately emphasized the secret of refining the body.

Ding Kun came to the old man with a crossbow arrow with two fingers, and said meaningfully: "The private army of the Ding family cannot be learned by others, and the death brigade led by the old slave had no opponent in the Eighth Legion, which was the old lady's private army." ”

Ding Kui deliberately avoided cultivating, and asked the two old men to instill in Shaodian Luan the concept that the secrets of the private army should not be leaked, for fear that Shao Dian Luan would report to the king on a whim.

"I understand, if you want to build a private army with a difference, you should be careful everywhere. "Shaodian Luan knows it, but he doesn't blame Ding Kui, those clans are all doing this.

The last wisp of magic power was sucked into the top of Xiao Ding Kui's head, and after a few breaths, it turned into water droplets and flew out of the tip of the lotus leaf, and a large pond appeared under the lotus platform. Under normal conditions, it appears blue-black, but with the Eye of Insight it appears cyan.

Strange to say, when the pond expands to a certain extent, the new magic power absorbed by the Baihui Acupoint will naturally dissipate, which means that Xiao Ding Kui can no longer liquefy the magic power, and the magic power that can be stored in the sea of divine consciousness will temporarily come to an end.

Ding Kui knew in his heart that this meant that his magic cultivation had encountered a bottleneck, and as long as he broke this bottleneck, he could be promoted to the rank of a sixth-level combat power and become a forbidden magician.

But how can this bottleneck be broken?
