Chapter Seventeen: The First Close Contact with the Spirit Beast
The mahogany boat was speeding downstream along the river, which was three to five feet wide.
Although Xuan He has never been a boatman, he was able to control this small boat in half a day and move forward smoothly. Moreover, the current was slow, so he did not need to be very competent.
The sky was getting darker and darker, and Dandan had already withdrawn her little feet from the cold river water and put on her little red cloth shoes. However, the small wooden boat was too narrow for her to walk back and forth. She had already gone crazy from idleness, so she simply lay down on the animal skin cushions spread out in the wooden cabin and looked up at the sky.
She suddenly shouted joyfully: "Junior brother! Junior brother! Stars! Stars!"
Xuanhe was filled with sorrow and anger by her call, and his face was full of depression, but in the end he had no choice but to say angrily: "What's so strange about the stars?"
He was reading the martial arts chapter in the ancient spiritual book taught to him by Yue Shan.
This ancient spiritual book was obtained by Yue Shan from an ancient ruins in his early years. It is an unknown black gold and stone tablet, but it only has three pages, namely the spiritual elixir chapter, the martial arts chapter and the spiritual weapon chapter. The spiritual elixir chapter It has been passed on to Dandan, the martial arts chapter has been given to Xuanhe, and the final spiritual weapon chapter is still in Yueshan's hands.
However, Yue Shan once said bluntly that he would also pass on his mantle of spiritual master to Xuan He, so naturally the spiritual weapon chapter in the future will also belong to Xuan He.
An iron page of a spiritual book is only the size of a palm, with densely packed small characters engraved on it. The handwriting is so small that it requires Xuanhe to transport his eyesight enough. With his martial arts aura as a fifth-level warrior, all the words are concentrated in his eyes. Only then can you slightly see the writing on the iron plate.
However, when Xuan He circulated the martial arts aura and gathered it in his eyes, suddenly, his mind suddenly lit up, and a bright light flashed in front of his eyes. Immediately, a group of crystal bright light appeared in his eyes, brilliant and bright. .
"Spirit!" Xuanhe vaguely knew that he was beyond Yue Shan's imagination. When Yue Shan used the spirit talisman array for him to summon human spirits, he had truly discovered the spirit within himself.
However, he himself was not sure at the time, and he had a little bit of selfishness, so he didn't say it out loud just now.
The opening chapter of the martial arts chapter in this ancient spiritual book, whose name is unknown to Yueshan, talks about the magic circle of spiritual talismans that summons human spirits. It is said that everyone has spirits, which are only in the body, and everyone can put them in his body. The spirit is discovered.
But immediately, Xuanhe felt a sense of surprise. Because Yue Shan only said that this article was about martial arts, but not to mention the spiritual talisman array that summoned human spirits at the beginning of the chapter. In fact, it can only be practiced by spiritual warriors. Of spiritual methods, even after the opening chapter, if I describe them in detail, there are many things that should clearly belong to the category of spiritual methods.
Spiritual method, the method of spiritual warrior.
Spirit warriors can not only use their own spirit to cooperate with the spiritual weapon spirit, summon the weapon spirit, and thereby control the spiritual weapon. In addition to possessing various means, they can also practice various spiritual methods, such as fire, thunder, wind, rain, rocks, and dust. Sand, etc. are amazingly powerful.
"This article seems to be called the 'Lingwu Chapter'!" Xuanhe frowned deeply, "However, as far as I know, there seems to be no such thing as a spiritual talisman among the spiritual arts of a spiritual warrior."
Xuanhe saw Yueshan use the spiritual energy runes several times, and even Dandan used them, which he called "spiritual runes".
This article says that spiritual talismans are formed by condensing spiritual energy. They have mysterious formations, connect the power of heaven and earth, and have all kinds of miraculous powers. They can be used to refine spiritual pills, enchant spiritual weapons, and can also be used in various spiritual talisman techniques of subordinates.
The formation is incredibly powerful!
While he was thinking hard, he suddenly heard Dandan's exclamation and replied casually. Unexpectedly, this annoying spirit immediately became angry and suddenly jumped up from the cabin, and took two steps to the stern of the ship.
Without politeness, he stretched out his hand and pinched Xuanhe's ears viciously.
"This is the sky of the spiritual realm, the stars of the spiritual realm! Senior sister, I haven't seen the sky and stars of the spiritual realm for a long time!"
Poor Xuanhe, who was a powerful man in his previous life and a rich and noble man in this life, how could he ever have his ears twisted and lectured, let alone a little girl? Although this tough person looks like just a girl with a bun, she is actually his senior sister, the real senior sister.
…
Xuanhe was speechless and burst into tears, lamenting that the opportunities in life are really unpredictable, and the great joy and great sorrow are so intertwined that it is difficult to digest.
"Ah...ah...Dandan..."
"Call Senior Sister!"
"Let go!"
"Junior brother, please call me senior sister!"
…
Xuanhe would rather give up his life than bear such an unbearable humiliation to his dignity, bear such a burden that his life cannot bear, and call out that "senior sister" that made his hair stand on end just thinking about it.
Dandan finally got tired of all the hard work and returned to the boat angrily. Only Xuanhe sat in the stern of the boat covering his already red ears. He dared not resist and wisely did not say a word. Only the little one under him
The wooden boat was shaken by this struggle, causing huge ripples on the river. The waves were rippling, and the afterglow of the setting sun behind the boat was fragmented.
The sun was setting in the west and the stars were rising in the east. The Xuanhe River was silently rocking the stern of the boat. He couldn't suppress his emotions for a moment. This was the leisurely tranquility he had never imagined...
"Junior brother, I'm hungry!"
Xuanhe stared, looking at Dandan who was gnawing on a peach while staring at him with a pair of dark pearl-like eyes. He felt that walking with this young aunt was really a huge pressure.
"Aren't you eating?"
After he finished speaking, he regretted it. As expected, Dandan showed signs of jumping up to deal with him again, and quickly asked for mercy: "Then what do you want to eat?"
Dandan tilted her little head, shook her head and said, "How can peaches be used as rice? Well, I miss the taste of spiritual beasts so much."
"We must not let her appearance deceive us!" Xuanhe solemnly swore that any stranger would feel love and affection for such a charming, lovable and attractive girl. Of course, this was his first time meeting her.
Dandan's thoughts, but in just a few days, especially today, he deeply felt how stupid this idea was. It was simply stupid to the extreme, "I really don't know that for ten years, Master
How did the old man endure this?"
"Spirit beast?"
Warriors, even fourth- and fifth-grade spiritual warriors, are not necessarily the opponents of first-grade high-ranking spiritual beasts. "Dan Dan, the spiritual beasts in the spiritual realm are all very powerful, and there are also spiritual beasts that live in groups.
Afraid……"
"Hmph, what kind of spiritual beasts are you afraid of when I'm here?" Dandan scolded angrily, forgetting to continue torturing Xuan He and calling her senior sister.
Xuanhe felt relieved and couldn't help but say: "You spirit tribe are naturally close to spirit beasts, and you can even control spirit beasts, but can you?"
Dandan puffed up her chest proudly: "Of course!"
Xuanhe looked around, and the sky had dimmed at this time, and the last ray of light of the setting sun was cast to the west of Pingchuan in the spiritual realm. Even if they were sitting on a boat speeding on the river and sailing to the northwest, Can't catch up.
Xuanhe cast his eyes towards the river bank and said with a wry smile: "However, even if we walk on the waterway for half a day, we can only reach one or two hundred miles at most. We are still on the edge of the spiritual realm. Where do the spiritual beasts come from?"
Dandan got up, threw another fruit core, and smiled proudly: "It's up to you, senior sister, to get to the shore, hurry up to the shore!"
Xuanhe had no choice but to hold up the wooden boat and slowly moved the mahogany boat to the bank of the river. When it reached a calm place, it finally stopped. He took the reins tied to the iron drill on the boat, held a long knife in his other hand, and jumped into the air. , and jumped onto the wet mudflat on the shore.
The iron drill was inserted deeply into the mudflat on the river bank. Xuanhe used a long knife to dig up the wet mud on the river bank and reinforced it for a week to prevent it from being able to withstand the force of the river water hitting the wooden boat and pulling the boat away.
When he looked up, Dandan had already stepped onto the red flame talisman and flew ashore, making Xuanhe's eyes water with excitement.
There is a wet mud flat on the river bank, and a hundred steps away from the river bank is a dark bush, which can't be seen clearly in the darkness of the approaching night.
"Dandan, are there any spiritual beasts here?"
Dandan said: "There will definitely be one, and it won't be very powerful. You can hunt it down too!"
Dandan flew all the way to the bushes and stopped, as if she was afraid that the damp soil would contaminate her beautiful red cloth shoes. She took out her storage bag from her arms, and the palms of her little hands lit up with spiritual energy. Guanghua, after rubbing it, didn't know what she found. Suddenly she raised her hand, and a bright powder was lifted into the air by her, and then burned loudly.
A faint aroma filled the air, spread quickly, and soon filled the entire river bank and spread into the bushes.
Dandan looked like his plot had succeeded, and flew back with joy on his face. He pulled Xuanhe and said, "You can't tell Master. If he knows that I use spirit beast crystal cores to refine this kind of thing, I will be in trouble." La."
Just when Xuanhe was confused and didn't understand, he suddenly heard several strange noises coming from the bushes.
Dandan pricked up her little ears and listened carefully. When she heard the sound, she laughed excitedly and said, "Oh, it's coming so fast. Junior brother, hurry up. As soon as it comes out, go up and kill it with one strike!"
"Spiritual beast!" , excited and uncontrollable, "What kind of spiritual beast and what grade is it?"
While Xuan He asked softly, a gray light and shadow quickly jumped out from the bushes!
Xuanhe's eyes widened, and he saw the gray light and shadow stopped outside the forest, two tiny eyes with bright folds of light, rolled a few times, and then leaped again, actually rushing towards the direction where Xuanhe and the others were hiding. Come over here!
Xuanhe looked to one side and saw a touch of sparkling powder in Dandan's hand. It turned out that she had lightly sprinkled the powder along the way from where it was burning.
A spiritual beast that looks like a puppy!
"Oh, it's just a low-ranking shadow rat, hurry up!"
Xuanhe was fisted by Dandan's little hand and hammered on thick back. He didn't hesitate and pulled out the long knife from under his body. It was dazzling. He suddenly exerted force from his squatting position and bounced around like lightning. The knife followed him and faced the man.
The shadow rat, a low-level spiritual beast of the first rank, flew over and slashed away with a sharp sword like a sword!
