Chapter 69: New Abilities
Before a stream of heat reached the abdomen, it seemed to be in the throat when it seemed to have burst into flames.
Before entering the mouth, it felt that the bowl of black stuff really looked like an ordinary decoction in this era - Zhou Ang was even ready for the first test to fail the ingredients.
However, more than a dozen ordinary medicinal herbs were matched together, but at this moment, suddenly burned and exploded in a cultivator's body.
Zhou Ang felt that what he was swallowing was not a bowl of medicinal soup, but a bowl of wine and a fire.
Or even a thunderbolt.
Suddenly, he entered a trance.
As far as the eye can see, it is colorful and mottled.
The whole world seemed to become ethereal in an instant, filled and divided by all kinds of strange, linear, lumpy, clumpy, and bizarre colors.
There was no house, no yard, no rain in front of him.
There are only colors left between heaven and earth.
At the same time, all kinds of strange sounds sounded near or far, east or west, south or north, and even east and west, south and north.
The carpenter is seesawing.
Electricity drilled through the clouds.
The fish leaps out of the water with ease.
A stone that has been exposed to wind and rain for thousands of years is bursting at a speed that is absolutely unobservable by normal humans, even more slowly than slow.
The bed was creaking and shaking, and there was the soft moaning of a woman.
The baby is crying.
The bird swallowed a small fish.
A crystal clear snowflake slowly swayed and drifted down in mid-air.
The feathers of the birds rub against the air currents and make sounds.
Children reciting poems.
The blacksmith's hammer fell.
Someone is shouting "Hundred officials go to court".
Heavy rain.
Ants are moving wheat grains.
The gears turn, making people sore.
The cloth was torn apart.
............
Zhou Ang soon felt as if his brain was about to explode.
It seems that tens of thousands of years, or even hundreds of thousands of years, are passing in front of him.
He had even quickly forgotten who he was.
A bowl of simple herbs ignited the heaven and earth aura that had accumulated in his body.
In the gap of a certain voice, Zhou Angfu was like a soul, and he had a moment of rejuvenation, he subconsciously recalled Uncle Zheng Huan's original teaching, and followed that teaching, subconsciously withdrawing his perception from those painful things.
This brings even more pain.
And he doesn't seem to be able to pull away at all.
And soon, he fell back into the colors and sounds.
What he saw and what he heard brought him infinitely closer to final, utter madness.
Suddenly, the mirror in his arms trembled slightly.
This is the only reality that Zhou Ang's body can truly feel brought about by this world.
He immediately touched a straw like a drowning man, and grabbed the feeling.
God enters the altar.
Uncle Zheng said: "When the gods enter the spiritual platform and keep it clear, all obstacles can be broken. ”
Suddenly, his whole perception receded from the all-encompassing psychedelia.
A blaze burst through his abdomen and quickly burned all over his body.
The colorful colors collapsed, melted, and disappeared like snow.
The chaotic voices began to fade away in an instant.
At a certain moment, the sound of a drizzling rain suddenly returned to my ears.
The fire is not extinguished, and it is baked in front of the chest.
Zhou Ang opened his eyes, only to feel that his consciousness was unprecedentedly clear.
He exhaled slowly, a little afraid, a little happy, and a little indescribably calm.
At this moment, he felt that the original aura in his body, which was already full of boiling aura, had undergone a round of complete qualitative change—they seemed to have turned into a mist-like existence, converging in the dantian of his abdomen, a small, big needle nose.
I closed my eyes again, and looked them out—they were as red as fire, tangled in clumps like silk, and thick as mist.
............
It was a long time before Zhou Ang opened his eyes again.
But this time, there was less calmness in his eyes, and he faded into excitement, but there was more confusion.
Just after completing the investigation just now, he could of course clearly perceive that he had successfully promoted to the eighth rank cultivator, but at the same time, he also realized that two special abilities suddenly appeared in his body—they suddenly appeared, as if they had already been engraved in his body.
And it was these two sudden abilities that made him feel a little subconsciously at a loss.
The first ability may be called "water escape"?
Zhou Ang is also not sure.
After probing and perceiving, he knew that this ability could allow him to use the presence of water to perform a special kind of "invisibility", "jumping" and "shuttling" - for example, if there was a pond in front of him, even if it was a small one, he would disappear in an instant as long as he jumped into it.
And if at the same time, there is another pond within thirty zhang of this, and you can jump out of it without even a second of your time.
What kind of ability is this?
It's impossible to imagine.
Why did he suddenly have such an extra ability after being promoted to an eighth-order cultivator?
Again, it's completely unknown.
Uncle Zheng hasn't said it before!
Of course, for this ability detected, Zhou Ang almost instantly thought of how to use it: of course, it can be used for stealth, sneaking, and escaping!
And so on and so forth.
Even, although it will be very difficult now, Zhou Ang can sense that this suddenly extra ability seems to include a certain ability to walk underwater and stay for a long time.
At present, I feel that I can hide in the lake and pond for about five or six minutes by hiding in the water - this kind of stealth state is impossible to detect even the fish and shrimp in the pond, as if I don't exist at all.
Of course, the premise is that the waters can accommodate your body.
In addition, he also added a second ability out of thin air, and this ability may be called "change"? Maybe the word "change" is too big, and it may be more appropriate to call it "induce", "guide", or "distortion", "mutagenesis" and the like.
Its function is that within a certain spatial range, as long as there is even a little bit of variables and variables in a certain person or a certain thing, as long as Zhou Ang wants to, he can try to exert subtle influence, and there is a certain chance that he can achieve the success of this guidance.
Of course, this kind of influence must not go against common sense and logic.
Let's take the simplest example, for example.
If Zhou Ang is following now...... For example, Fang Jun and Fang Boju are okay, the two of them are playing chess, Zhou Ang wins, Fang Jun feels bored, bored, he doesn't play, he wants to go, and Zhou Ang still wants to take advantage of the victory to chase the next game, then at this time, Zhou Ang can try to influence Fang Jun's thinking.
As long as he has the idea of "stay and come again" in his mind, or does not refuse or resist this idea, then theoretically speaking, Zhou Ang has a certain possibility of success.
Once successful, Fang Jun may think: Although it is boring to lose, why should I go, there is nothing else, other things may be more boring than this!
So, maybe Zhou Ang didn't need to persuade him, he decided to play another game.
Otherwise, it may be something else, such as "One more game, I don't believe I will lose" or something like that, if he has this idea in his mind, then Zhou Ang may also reverse his original thinking.
Anyway, the final result is that once Zhou Ang succeeds, what should have happened, "Fang Jun got up and left", will be changed to "Fang Jun decides to play another game".
Of course, according to Zhou Ang's perception, although he has this ability, its energy is currently quite weak, so the impact it can have is extremely small, and it may be easy to fail.
At least for now, Zhou Ang felt that if the above example really happened, it should be impossible for him to influence Fang Jun's thoughts.
But at the same time, he could feel that this ability would grow as he grew.
In other words, as long as you keep improving, this ability will become more and more powerful in the future - more and more influential, and the success rate will be higher and higher.
When he first discovered and understood this ability, Zhou Ang was also at a loss.
Because it was a little too sudden for him.
Not only Uncle Zheng, but everyone he knew before, including the official cultivators, he had never heard anyone say that after the level was raised, there would be such a thing as a new ability suddenly appearing.
Although under this slight confusion, there is a suppressed ecstasy that seems to be ready to leap at any moment.
Further, under the ecstasy, there is great fear of careful thinking.
Without violating logic, I can influence, or interfere with, whether a chicken eats this grain of rice first, or eat that grain of rice first, I can influence a person's decision to go or stay, so when I become stronger, can I let a chicken choose to commit suicide?
Think again...... Probably not, because it would be illogical!
But if the chicken, or the person himself, wants to commit suicide, suicide is one of the options in his mind...... Is it possible for me to succeed?
What if I was stronger?
Can I just try to influence a group of people?
What is this doing? This is - bootstrapping!
To a certain extent, in the vast society, every choice made by everyone is silently influencing history in subtle ways – at least their own history.
The choice between a single thought may even determine life and death.
To a certain extent, the entire history of mankind is a trivial, subtle, and despicable history of countless people, and finally forms its appearance.
At this moment, for no reason, Zhou Ang suddenly thought of the situation after he had just taken the bowl of decoction, at that time, he felt as if tens of thousands of years, even hundreds of thousands of years, passed in front of him one by one.
"That's what it is...... Great Extension?"
"So, my cultivation is completely different from theirs?"
