"Master, I can study assisted pregnancy with you."
Xiao Gua smiled mischievously, and her eyes were filled with peach blossoms, which was so beautiful that it captured the imagination.
Ling Xiao kicked her to the side and continued to study the Zhuyun Heart Sutra.
This mental method is like bamboo, without too many twists and turns. Ling Xiao originally planned to study it with Yu Shenhua and the others, but now it seems that there is no need to bother.
After reading it for a long time, he sat cross-legged and urged the magic power in his body to follow the trajectory of the Bamboo Rhythm Heart Sutra.
A faint emerald light appeared on his body, lingering around him endlessly, and his robes moved slightly, showing an indifferent and earthly temperament. After the magic power circulated for a long time, the gurgling stream was slightly tinged with emerald green.
Ling Xiao collected his power and realized it silently.
The magical properties of the Bamboo Rhythm Heart Sutra are just like bamboo. It has the resilience to remain standing despite the wind and rain. Ling Xiao secretly nodded with great satisfaction.
The perseverance, soft yet strong mana can unleash even more powerful potential when faced with the enemy in a battle of wits!
And when running this skill, the speed of absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is not slow, which can be said to be first-rate.
Although it is a single-attribute technique and does not have any accompanying magical powers or secrets, after Ling Xiao's first try, he could not find any faults with this technique and was extremely satisfied.
With a slight smile, he took out a wine gourd, raised his head and drank some, then practiced vigorously.
In the past, Ling Xiao was reluctant to drink the third-level dragon bone wine he brewed without the skill, but now he was finally able to drink it.
Feeling the powerful tempering effect of dragon bone wine on the body, Ling Xiao's cheeks twitched slightly, not daring to be distracted at all, forcing himself to be patient, running the Bamboo Rhythm Heart Sutra desperately, and absorbing the spiritual energy in the wine.
Fortunately, he had absorbed all the remaining demonic stones, and his physique had strengthened a lot, and he could barely withstand the murderous tempering pain of dragon bone wine.
Driven by Dragon Bone Wine, the mana quickly evolved into a new form of the Bamboo Rhythm Heart Sutra.
About three hours passed.
Ling Xiao stood up, his eyes sparkling, and he pointed out with his halberd!
Three hundred and sixty-one chess pieces came out one after another, turning into a torrent like a charging knight, roaring and circling in the air.
Feeling the consumption of mana in his body, Ling Xiao felt happy.
The growth ability of bamboo is extremely powerful, which is reflected in the skill, which makes his mana recovery speed much faster than that of the same level!
This is an unexpected surprise!
From now on, I won’t be afraid of fighting a war of attrition with others.
Moreover, after practicing the formal Golden Core Stage Kung Fu, Ling Xiao also gained a fresher understanding of the Golden Core Stage's magic power, and became more and more comfortable in controlling the chessboard of life.
He struck while the iron was hot, drank dragon bone wine, and continued practicing.
I haven't experienced the pleasure of increasing mana for many years. Ling Xiao is now full of motivation!
One sitting lasted two days and two nights.
In two days, Ling Xiao drank at least three hundred kilograms of spiritual wine. The huge amount of spiritual energy he absorbed not only allowed him to completely complete the transformation of the technique, but also improved his cultivation by a small amount.
If Liang Zhi hadn't come over, Ling Xiao wouldn't have been willing to stop.
The assessment results are out.
"Senior Fox, are you okay?"
Liang Zhi couldn't help but feel funny when he saw Ling Xiao sitting slumped as drunk as mud.
There are many drunkards in the world, but it is rare to find a golden elixir monk like Ling Xiao who drinks to the point of falling into a stupor.
"It's okay, hiccup..."
After letting out a long belch, Ling Xiao took the assessment results, glanced at them, and handed them back to Liang Zhi. He then asked, "Is this assessment result good or bad?"
Seventy-nine demons were killed, all of which were first-level high-level demon beasts. The legion paid the price of twenty deaths, eleven serious injuries, and eighty-one minor injuries.
Liang Zhi said seriously: "It's average. But considering that they only trained for a month, it is not easy to achieve this result. It seems that the senior was an outstanding reserve instructor before."
Ling Xiao said calmly: "I don't know if I am outstanding or not. Anyway, no one gave me assessments and grades at that time. Am I eligible to apply for eight years of service time?"
Liang Zhi nodded and said: "I have already applied for you. Once Senior Yunhuang agrees, a formal contract can be drawn up. In addition to eight years of service, Senior's annual tribute has also been increased to 500,000 spirit stones. But recently, If there is no legion established, the seniors may have to be idle for a while. When a new legion is established, or there are vacancies in the legion, the seniors will be able to fill them."
Ling Xiao shrugged without any objection.
His main purpose is to "reduce his sentence". It doesn't matter whether he is in charge of troops or not.
"Then during this period, senior, let's move together with other Jindan monks. When the tasks are distributed, someone will specifically notify you. Liang Zhi takes leave."
"Wait!"
Liang Zhi paused, turned around, and asked, "Senior, do you have any more instructions?"
Ling Xiao burped and asked, "The assessment is over, what will happen to those people?"
Liang Zhi said without hesitation: "They need to continue serving in the future until they are completely free from their crimes and have made meritorious service, but I won't bother my seniors with this matter..."
After all, Ling Xiao is a golden elixir cultivator. If he wants to command troops, he should also lead soldiers in the foundation-building stage. Bringing a group of Qi Refining Stage people to the battlefield will only tie them up, so it’s better not to bring them at all.
"Anyway, I have nothing to do for the time being. Before their leader is established, let them come back here to train. I can teach them when I have time." Ling Xiao said.
Hearing this, Liang Zhi couldn't help but look at Ling Xiao a few more times, and then smiled, "It's their luck that the seniors are willing to teach. I'll let them come back right now."
After Liang Zhi left, Ling Xiao's drunken eyes immediately returned to clarity and he smiled slightly.
It's not that he likes to be a teacher, but he intends to use those people to test his current understanding of the Xiaoqi Formation and the Ten Thousand Leaves Formation.
At that time, the reason why he quickly mastered the basic formations such as the Arrow Formation was not only due to the Lingcao training class, but also to his personal participation in the daily training of the military formations.
Perhaps with the help of real people's exercises, Ling Xiao can think differently.
In addition, the training attitude of those people in the past month has also been affirmed by Ling Xiao.
Since the remaining ones are all guilty of small crimes, Ling Xiao doesn't mind helping them and forming a good relationship.
Half an hour later.
Liang Zhi led the soldiers and returned.
"Senior, this is your contract. Senior Yunhuang said that you are the first Jindan recruit to be in charge of soldiers. From now on, you can move freely in the camp without restrictions."
Liang Zhi handed over a contract.
After Ling Xiao carefully read every word in the contract, he signed it.
"Thank you, Senior Yunhuang, for me." He smiled.
Liang Zhi looked at his smile and felt a slight sense of intimacy for a moment.
Free movement means that Ling Xiao can frequently visit Senior Yunhuang and accept his guidance. This is a great honor, and it means that Yunhuang intends to take this rare military elixir under his command.
Ling Xiao and Liang Zhi may become officials in the same court in the future.
"Senior, this is your identity token. This assessment also includes military merit, a total of fifty points."
"oh?"
Ling Xiao took the token and checked it, then grinned: "Thank you, General Liang, and thank you, Senior Yunhuang."
This time, he meant it.
I've already accumulated fifty points of military merit when I first arrived, so I'm off to a good start!
