Xing Nan only fell into a coma because he could not bear the tremendous pressure. He was not injured, both body and soul.
So he didn't sleep for too long. He woke up after the little monster scratched his neck for half an hour.
Squeak!
Seeing Xing Nan open his eyes, the little monster screamed happily.
"hehe."
Xing Nan smiled, then slowly sat upright and hugged the little monster into his arms.
The little monster's carapace turned into a bone-colored ring. Although its gray-black hair was not bright and shiny, it was also very soft. Especially its pair of dark, timid eyes made Xing Nan even more excited.
Feeling a little better.
Before falling into coma, Xing Nan saw the colorful glow erupting from the bone-colored ring, and also saw the little monster's expression full of concern and eagerness.
"Although this kid is timid, he is still very generous at critical moments." Xing Nan thought in his heart.
If the little monster hadn't wanted to protect Xing Nan, the bone-colored ring would certainly not have released the colorful brilliance. After all, it was not Xing Nan's magic weapon.
If it hadn't been for the bone-colored ring to exert its power, Xing Nan would have collapsed due to the backlash of the sword-shaped sword spirit.
Xing Nan couldn't help but be a little grateful to the little monster.
However, he also knew that the little monster beast had recognized him as the master, and if he died, the little monster beast would also die, but this did not affect his gratitude to the little monster beast.
His hands caressed the little monster's body, and his fingers touched the bone-colored ring on the little monster's neck intentionally or unintentionally. He thought to himself: "A magic weapon that can change its form must be of high quality. This little monster is really
What’s the origin?”
The little monster looked very well-behaved. It lay in Xing Nan's arms and quietly enjoyed the caress of its owner.
Like Xing Nan, it has never seen its parents and has been lonely and helpless. In its heart, it actually longs for someone to rely on.
It is not its nature to be timid, it is just that it is still weak, and in this dangerous forest of beasts, it must be careful to avoid losing its life.
It doesn't understand the world either, and because it doesn't understand it, it is afraid.
"By the way, where is the sword-shaped sword spirit?"
Xing Nan suddenly remembered the sword spirit thing, and immediately his body trembled and he looked around nervously.
He first saw the sword box, but the sword box was lying quietly on the ground as usual, simple and heavy.
"Squeak!"
The little monster also made a sound, pointing at Xing Nan's belly.
"In my body?"
Xing Nan was extremely surprised and quickly sat cross-legged and meditated, urging his spiritual consciousness to look inside himself.
There was no difference at all in the tendons, flesh, bones, and internal organs, and his consciousness sank into his Dantian again.
“It’s really here!”
At this moment, in the dantian, the sword-shaped sword spirit was floating next to the sword tire.
Perhaps because it felt powerless to devour it, the sword fetus no longer exerted its devouring force on the sword spirit it loved to devour. The sword fetus and the sword-shaped sword spirit were at peace with each other and were clearly separate from each other.
"how so?"
Xing Nan was puzzled as to why this sword-shaped sword spirit came to his Dantian.
Is it because of the attraction of the Sword-Eating Art?
Or is it the attraction of the sword fetus?
Or is it the effect of the colorful brilliance?
"I don't know if it's a good thing or a bad thing, but this sword spirit is so powerful that the sword embryo can't swallow it. I'm afraid it will be extremely difficult to get it out."
Xing Nan looked depressed and worried.
But now that things have come to this, we still have to think for the best.
“I’ll try to see if I can refine it later!”
Xing Nan stood up and did not dare to study the sword box anymore. Naturally, he would not give up the sword box. He picked up the sword box and then carried the little monster towards the cave outside the hall.
The sword box is very heavy, but Xing Nan, who has been practicing for a long time, is very strong. He can't run fast while holding the sword box, but at least he can walk without any hindrance.
There are also several boulders at the end of the cave, and there are also small paw prints on the boulders.
The little monster pressed its front paws on the small paw prints on the boulders, and then those paw prints shimmered at the same time, and mysterious patterns began to appear on several boulders.
Buzz…
A door of light emerged.
Xing Nan walked towards the light door with the little monster without thinking.
The body easily penetrated the light door and came to the rift valley, surrounded by several huge rocks.
As soon as he came out, the light door behind him immediately dissipated, and several boulders returned to their original unattractive appearance.
Returning along the original route, we also encountered no danger. The path chosen by the little monster was very safe.
"You don't have a name yet, do you?"
As he was busy walking, Xing Nan suddenly asked.
"Let me give you a name...what is it?"
The little monster nodded repeatedly, looking forward to it.
"You are good at everything, but you are a little timid. I hope you can be braver in the future. Let's call you Xiaomeng!"
After Xing Nan thought for a while, he finally thought of a name that satisfied him.
The little monster tilted its head, but did not express any excitement or joy, did not angrily refuse, and did not accept happily.
"The name is just a code name. You may not be used to it when you first have a name. It will be fine if you are called more times." Xing Nan comforted.
Due to carrying a heavy sword box on his back, Xing Nan didn't arrive at his original training place, which was the waterfall, until the sky was getting slightly brighter.
I went into the cave again to pack up some unused things, put on a change of clothes that I had prepared earlier, and then continued to go outside the Forest of Ten Thousand Beasts.
When we approached the Kirigakure Inn, it was already dark. The inn must have been open long ago, but there were generally very few guests in the morning.
Xing Nan did not enter the inn through the main entrance, but jumped into his room through the back window as usual.
After hiding the sword box under the bed and taking off the cloth bag, Xing Nan walked out of the room and went to the lobby on the first floor.
As for Xiao Meng, he lay obediently on Xing Nan's bed.
…
"You're finally back, the boss lady may have to wait impatiently!"
As soon as he arrived at the lobby on the first floor, Lehua, who had already packed up the tables and chairs, said these words and made a gesture to go to the second floor.
Xing Nan knew that the landlady and Lehua were going to the Demon Control City to make purchases today. In the past, they would set out in a carriage early in the morning for purchases.
"Brother Le, wait a minute, I have something to ask you for help." Xing Nan quickly grabbed Lehua.
"What's going on? Tell me quickly." Lehua looked anxious.
"Just wait here! I'll be right away!"
Xing Nan immediately ran back to his room and brought over a heavy-looking cloth bag.
"This is?" Lehua was a little confused.
"These are all the inner elixirs of low-level monsters. You can help me sell them in the Demon Control City, and the resulting spiritual stones will help me buy two middle-grade spiritual swords."
After Xing Nan thought for a while, he said: "There is also a third-level demonic beast inner elixir here, and there is also a late third-level wind shadow beast inner elixir. The value of all the inner elixirs together should not be low. Buy two of them."
There should be no problem with the Spirit Sword. I will buy the remaining three pills each of the Spirit Stones, Spirit Body Pills, Great Return Pills, and Golden Tendon Pills for me."
Lehua opened the bag and saw a bag full of monster inner elixirs emitting various shimmering colors. His eyes immediately widened, looking very surprised.
"Did you remember it?" Xing Nan patted Lehua on the shoulder and asked.
"Um!"
Lehua nodded solemnly.
"The spiritual stones should be enough. The inner elixir of a late third-level wind shadow beast alone should be worth nearly ten thousand middle-grade spiritual stones. The value of an ordinary middle-grade spiritual sword is around seven hundred middle-grade spiritual stones.
, Spiritual Body Pill, Dahuandan, and Jinjindan are all top-grade spiritual pills, with a value of about 500 mid-grade spiritual stones. The Spiritual Body Pill may be more expensive, but the value of one pill will not exceed 800 mid-grade spiritual stones.
Spiritual stone."
Xing Nan first explained, and then said generously: "There must be some surplus spiritual stones. It would be best if we can buy another medium-grade spiritual sword. If we can't buy one, all the remaining spiritual stones will go to Brother Le."
Now, you can buy yourself something."
"I got it! I can't keep the boss lady waiting, I'll go up first."
Lehua didn't dare to linger for too long, so he immediately walked up the stairs carrying the bag.
…
Just before lunch time, the landlady and Lehua set off, driving a very ordinary carriage and slowly disappeared on the east avenue of Kirigakure Inn.
"Boy, here is an invitation for you."
Xing Nan watched the carriage go away, and when he turned around, the shopkeeper gently knocked on the counter and gave a reminder.
At this moment, there is a big red invitation card on the counter.
Xing Nan took the invitation and opened it. When he saw the black words inside, his brows immediately wrinkled.
"What kind of drama is Xue Hongtao going to do?"
Putting the invitation in his arms, Xing Nan sneered secretly.
To go or not to go?
Xing Nan did not dwell on this issue for too long.
Why not? Just think of it as going to the theater!
If the Xue family has any conspiracy, they will definitely suffer the consequences!
I, Xing Nan, am no longer the good-for-nothing I was before!
This time he went out to practice, and his physical fitness has been greatly improved again. He can already fully exert his peak strength in the late stage of Sword Embryo. In addition, his soul realm has entered the spiritual level, and the Nine-Section Opening Heaven Palm can also hit four consecutive rounds.
He also has a very strange transformation technique, so why should he be afraid of going to Xue's house?
While greeting the guests for dinner, Xing Nan also heard that tomorrow is the official start day of the next round of the Four Kingdoms Heroes, and the Four Kingdoms Heroes are already gearing up.
Even if there is an important game tomorrow and seeing Xing Nan appear at the inn, the Capricorn hero Jian Yu also comes to the door of the inn again, clamoring to challenge Xing Nan, but he is obviously much more polite than his sister Jian Ling, and just wants Xing Nan to go out to challenge,
He did not insult Xing Nan as a coward or a coward.
It was Jian Yu alone. When lunch time passed, all the drunken and enthusiastic heroes from the four countries, except for the four people from the Piaoyun Kingdom and Jian Ling from the Capricorn Kingdom, actually stood at the door of the inn, watching.
He looked like he wanted to fight Xing Nan before he would give up.
Xing Nan was busy cleaning up the lobby on the first floor and was not in the mood to pay attention to these so-called talented people, so he let them shout outside.
"With you all standing outside, there will be fewer guests in the inn, and I will be able to relax."
Not only did Xing Nan not feel ashamed for not going out to challenge, he was actually quite happy.
It's not that he doesn't dare to challenge, it's that he doesn't want to. He is confident that among the heroes of the Four Kingdoms, except for the three spiritual masters including Princess Yunshang, no one can be his opponent. Even if these three spiritual masters are not among the five.
It is impossible to defeat him easily even if you are above grade.
He just didn't want to fight in vain. If he was injured, he would have to spend spirit stones to buy the healing elixir, which was not cost-effective.
