The black crystal ball with a smooth surface like a mirror reflected Li Luo's face, with obvious expectations and tension on it.
He also wanted to know what the things his father and mother had put so much effort into leaving for him...
"How should I open it?"
Li Luo tried his best to suppress the tension in his heart, looked around at the dark and mysterious crystal ball, and then tentatively pressed his palms on it.
Buzz!
And just when his palms touched the crystal ball, the crystal ball seemed to vibrate slightly, and the originally hard and smooth surface seemed to turn into liquid, gradually covering Li Luo's palms.
At the same time, Li Luo felt faintly, as if something as tiny as a needle pricked into his palm, and some blood was drawn out.
The black liquid gradually separated from his hands, and at the same time, light began to emanate from it. Finally, in Li Luo's surprised eyes, it gradually intertwined into two lights and shadows above.
Looking at the two extremely familiar figures, Li Luo suddenly felt a sense of sourness rising to the tip of his nose.
"Dad, Mom..."
Those two lights are a man and a woman. The man is exceptionally handsome, with a body as tall as a gun. He is dressed in white and handsome. He has a gentle smile on his face and a powerful aura, which gives people an indescribable sense of security.
.
The woman is wearing a purple coat, her long hair is tied up, and her hands are leisurely put in her pockets. Her face is also extremely beautiful, dignified and elegant.
They are Li Luo's parents, Li Taixuan and Tantai Lan.
"Haha, Xiao Luo, you must have been seventeen years old when you saw our photo here, right? There is a high probability that we will not be with you at this time." When Li Luo looked at the two lights and shadows, Li Taixuan spoke.
.
"Xiao Luo must have become more handsome, right? Have you been pursued by girls in school?" Tantai Lan said with a smile.
Li Luo rubbed his eyes and said to himself: "Except for being handsome, your son is absolutely useless now. How can anyone pursue him?"
"Is Xiao Luo feeling sorry for himself now? Feeling that he is worthless?" However, the light and shadow of Li Taixuan seemed to know what Li Luo was thinking at this time, and he smiled again.
Tantai Lan said: "Is it because of the emptiness in your body?"
Hearing this, Li Luo was shocked, because when the Xiang Palace appeared in his body, Li Taixuan and Tantai Lan had already disappeared. How could they know about his situation?
"Don't be surprised, Xiao Luo. In fact, we used special secret methods to make some observations about the empty phase in your body before your phase palace appeared, including the three phase palaces you have." Tantai Lan's eyes were gentle.
said.
Li Luo opened his mouth. At this moment, he remembered a lot. It turned out that his father and mother knew about the special situation in his body earlier than he did. So, does the disappearance of his father and mother have anything to do with this? What on earth are you... now?
Where? Is the situation okay? Why has there been no news for so many years?
"Xiao Luo, first of all, I want to tell you here that the natural empty phase is not a useless thing, but in my opinion, it is the most powerful body in the world. You don't need to be depressed about it, but should be happy about it.
"Li Taixuan's words were like a groundbreaking statement, leaving Li Luo dumbfounded.
"Dad, if you want to comfort me, you don't have to go so far, right?" Li Luo had an expression on his face that said, "Just fool me. It's hard to practice the power of space, connection, and phase, and you have the strongest physique. Dad, who are you fooling?"
"You were born with an empty phase and cannot absorb and refine the energy of heaven and earth. This is indeed a problem that touches the root, but this problem does not really have no solution." Li Taixuan smiled slightly and said.
"Since it is an empty phase, then just find a way to fill it in." Tantai Lan also said with a smile.
Li Luo frowned. This sounds simple to say, but in reality it is simply impossible. Nature is born in nature, and it is unheard of to fill it in the day after tomorrow. He has made similar attempts before, without exception.
Failed.
"It is indeed impossible to do it with ordinary methods, but since we learned about your innate empty phase, we have been working hard to find a way."
"But Huangtian paid off and we finally found it."
When Li Taixuan said these words, Li Luo could clearly hear his heart beating like a drum. The beating was so violent that his head felt dizzy for a moment.
"We read through and deduced countless ancient books, and finally found a method. This method is called "Small Formless Divine Forging Technique". This technique can hammer out the acquired appearance, and if someone fuses it during the hammer forging,
The essence, blood and soul of the person, then the final image can be integrated into the palace of the image."
"Xiao Luo, the fact that you were born with an empty phase is not necessarily a bad thing, because the innate phase is too random and difficult to control. However, the acquired phase forged with the "Small Wuxiang Divine Forging Technique" can be adjusted according to your wishes.
Will build it."
"If you want the elemental phase, you can build it in the direction of the elemental phase. If you want the beast phase, then go in the direction of the beast phase."
"After that, your three phase palaces will all be equipped with the three phases that you have carefully forged. At that time, they will complement each other, and their power will be far greater than those innate phases."
Li Luo's eyes couldn't help but light up. This is not bad. There are many signs. When many people's signs are turned on, the nature of the signs is fixed and cannot be changed no matter what. And here, although he has no innate signs, but
But it is better than the acquired plasticity.
"Xiao Luo, the acquired appearance forged by this "Little Phaseless Divine Forging Technique" has another wonderful benefit." Tantai Lan added.
Although he knew that what he saw in front of him was just a photo, Li Luo suddenly became energetic. If you want to talk about the benefits, then I am not sleepy anymore.
"Most of the normal innate phases are of a single element, but the acquired phase hammered out by this "Small Phaseless Divine Forging Technique" is different, because it contains two attributes, one main and one auxiliary."
"If these two attributes can choose the attributes of each other, it will definitely make them even more powerful. Although there are some heavenly materials and earthly treasures in the world, it is possible for people to give birth to some other elements in the palace, but they are too small.
It's just a small gain at most, but compared with the compatibility of your master and your pair, it's far behind."
“Cow, cow, cow!”
Li Luo clapped his hands vigorously. Of course he understood how precious this point was. If he chose the fire phase as the main element and added the thunder phase element as a supplement, the superposition of fire and thunder would undoubtedly greatly enhance the destructive power of his phase.
force.
Thinking of this, even he couldn't help but get a little excited. It seemed that his so-called empty phase was really more subtle than the innate phase!
"Ahem, but everything is difficult to be perfect. Although the acquired phase is incomparably consistent with the empty phase, there is one flaw, that is, the acquired phase that is hammered out will not be higher than the fourth grade initially."
Li Taixuan suddenly coughed dryly and said.
Li Luo was stunned for a moment and hesitated a little. The fourth-grade appearance was indeed a bit low. Compared with Jiang Qing'e's ninth-grade light, the gap was not even a little bit different.
With this level difference, I am afraid that even if he possesses both primary and auxiliary elements, he may not be able to catch up easily.
But this hesitation is only short-lived after all. After all, his situation is no longer bad. Even if he is a fourth-grade prime minister, it is still pretty good!
"Of course, you don't have to worry. Although the starting point of acquired traits is low, you can improve it with acquired methods." Tantai Lan loved his son the most and immediately woke up.
Li Luo suddenly realized, yes, there are many strange medicines and treasures in this world, which have the magical effect of improving the level of phase. In particular, there is a profession called phase tempering master, which can refine many spiritual waters that temper phase.
Strange light is the most popular among countless fortune tellers.
It's just that there are some limitations to how this kind of external object can improve the quality of the phase. Generally speaking, if it can ultimately improve the quality of the phase by one or two grades, that's the limit.
As for his acquired appearance, if he starts at the extreme level, he can only be at the fourth level, and in the end, after various improvements, he will stop at the fifth or sixth level at most.
"Is Xiao Luo worried that external objects will improve their appearance and reach their ultimate perfection?" While Li Luo was thinking about it, Li Taixuan's laughter rang out.
"Oh?" Seeing Li Taixuan's smile, Li Luo couldn't help but raise his eyebrows. Is it possible that there is a chance to make up for this shortcoming?
While Li Luo was waiting expectantly, Tantai Lan suddenly coughed slightly and interrupted Li Taixuan who was about to speak. She said with some dissatisfaction: "You have said everything.
What else should I tell Xiao Luo?"
Li Taixuan was obviously stunned, and then hurriedly said: "I'm sorry, my wife, I was wrong, you can tell your son next."
When Li Luo saw this scene, he couldn't help but shake his head. His father's desire for survival was really incredible. Was it the result of being beaten alive?
"Boy, are you laughing at your father?"
And the image of Li Taixuan seemed to know Li Luo's reaction when he saw this scene, and immediately snorted, and then said extremely seriously: "You are still young, you don't understand, I am not afraid of your mother, but I am afraid of your mother."
Your mother's love is too deep, and I have told you many times that loving your wife is the first family motto in our family. From now on, you and Qing'e must abide by family rules, do you know?"
When Li Luo heard this, he couldn't help but sneered, Dad, every time you told me this, if you didn't have fresh fist marks on your face, I would have almost believed it.
But when it came to Jiang Qing'e, Li Luo sighed again. Qing'e was almost brought up by my mother, so her personality is very similar to hers, and she always wants to beat him.
What to do next?
With sadness in his heart, Li Luo raised his head and glanced at his father's image, and the latter seemed to understand what he was thinking. For a moment, both father and son felt a little sad.
"Li Taixuan, can you please stop wasting my time by playing tricks here?" When the father and son felt sad for each other, Tantai Lan said with a slightly raised eyebrow.
When Li Taixuan heard this, he quickly nodded to express his understanding.
Then Tantai Lan looked at Li Luo, and his tone became gentle: "The restrictions on improving the level of physical appearance of foreign objects are only for innate physical appearance, because those foreign objects, no matter how purified, will eventually contain some impurities.
, it is the accumulation of these impurities that will eventually lead to the complete closure of the zodiac palace, making it difficult to improve the zodiac sign level."
"But Xiao Luo, your empty phase is not in this range. Because other people's palaces are born with attributes, they will be repellent to those tempered foreign objects. But your empty phase has no attributes. Since it is empty
Nothing, nothing, also means that it can accommodate all things."
"So, your appearance can be continuously improved by relying on the tempering of external objects. Although the higher the grade, the more difficult it will be, but you do have the opportunity to perfect your acquired appearance."
"That's why I said, Xiao Luo, this so-called empty phase is probably the most powerful phase in the world. What it lacks is the key to unlock it."
Li Luo's heart surged violently. In the past few years, the emptiness in his body had made him endure a lot. At first, he felt unwilling and angry, but in the end all these unwilling efforts turned into powerlessness, and then he could only
Can accept reality.
But now, his father told him that this empty phase is not useless, but the strongest in the world?
At this moment, Li Luo couldn't help but blush.
"Xiao Luo, the first acquired phase, we took your blood essence and a wisp of soul before and refined it, and it's inside this crystal ball."
"The Little Phaseless Divine Forging Technique is also among them." Tantai Lan said.
A warm current surged through Li Luo's heart, and he immediately opened his hands: "Mom and dad, thank you. Come on, I'm ready. Pass me the acquired phase and the small phaseless divine forging technique, so that you can
My son, let’s start this leap in life from now on.”
However, at this time, Li Taixuan's expression became serious. He was silent for a few breaths and said: "There is one last thing I need to explain to you. Integrating this acquired relationship into the body is not as simple as you think."
"When the acquired phase is integrated, it will absorb a large amount of your essence and blood. The reason why you are required to open this thing when you are seventeen years old is because you need to reach this age before you can barely bear the essence and blood.
loss."
"But the most important thing is... when you combine acquired traits, you will not only lose your essence and blood, but also... your lifespan."
"From the moment of fusion, your lifespan will only be the last five years... Unless you can step into the feudal realm and evolve your life level within five years, your lifespan will come to an end in five years.
.”
"Your mother and I have been arguing about this matter for a long time. After all, the price is too high. But when you grow up, Xiao Luo, we decided to tell you about this matter and let you make your own choice. Xiao Luo, choose to maintain
In the current situation, whether to become a wealthy idler and live a safe life in the future, or choose to integrate the acquired traits, start fighting against nature, and embark on the endless dangerous road..."
"If you choose the former, just close the crystal ball, and everything in it will self-destruct. If you choose the latter, just put your palm into it. The choice can only be left to you, but no matter
No matter what choice you make, your father and mother will always support you."
The words stopped suddenly, and the images of Li Taixuan and Tantai Lan stopped talking, and just looked forward quietly with gentle eyes.
Li Luo also slowly sat down, staring at the dark crystal ball with an uncertain expression.
He had thought before that this empty phase had such great potential, so how could it not have any sequelae? It turned out that it was waiting here.
Now, the choice he makes is to decide whether he wants to be a weakling or a short-lived ghost?
