In the mysterious dark cave, Zhao Fan was completely unconscious. He didn't even know what happened. He fell into coma the next morning.
When he woke up, Zhao Fan opened his eyes in confusion, and raised his hands reflexively to rub his scalp that looked like it had exploded. However, the hair was extremely smooth and without any trauma.
The pain lasted for a while and then disappeared.
At this moment, Zhao Fan was completely awake. He stared blankly at the entrance of the cave in front of him, "When did I... come out?" Then he looked up at the golden sun hanging in the boundless void, which was higher than when he came yesterday. Slightly lower, which means that a whole day has passed!
"The teacher asked me to come to the cave to stay for a day, but it ended so unclearly."
Zhao Fan was puzzled. He didn't notice any changes in himself compared to before...
Zhao Fan looked at the entrance of the cave and decided to go in to explore again, but when he thought of the weird things, he felt a little conflicted. In the end, he still didn't dare to enter the cave again, so he embarked on his return journey with great doubts.
Soon after, they returned to the area where the cabin was located.
Liang Rui was controlling a knife with his soul power, carving random and seemingly random graffiti on a log.
"Teacher." Zhao Fan saluted and said, "The disciple is back."
As soon as Liang Rui's soul power moved, the knife split the log into two pieces. He asked the former with a smile, "How do you feel?"
"I'm sorry for my stupidity." Zhao Fan said truthfully inexplicably and somewhat embarrassingly: "The moment I entered the cave, I was locked by something weird and unpredictable, and then it dragged me straight into the depths and hit the cave wall, until I was unconscious. This morning, I woke up right outside the cave.”
"Ha ha."
Liang Rui smiled and said, "Then do you notice any difference in yourself now?"
Zhao Fan shook his head and said even more confusedly: "No, please let the teacher clarify."
He checked carefully on the way back, and found that there was no change in the soul power amplitude, soul power strength, soul and body levels, including the crucial dual sources.
"Um……"
Liang Rui nodded slightly, and said nonchalantly: "It's normal that I didn't notice it. After all, you haven't stepped into the Xuan level yet. Master, let's be honest. In that cave is the cave of an earth-level soul beast. "
"ah?"
After hearing this, Zhao Fan shuddered in realization. There was actually an earth-level Yuan beast living in that cave, especially a Soul Yuan beast? As a teacher, I have a really big heart. Even if I can fight across a large level, I can't compete with the existence of the earth level. What if... the other party sees a stranger breaking into the cave and becomes angry? He has long since lost his bones and dregs.
"It turns out that you are afraid sometimes." Liang Rui said jokingly, and then said seriously: "That soul beast was once my master's mount, and its name is Blue Eyed Golden Tail Fox. After all, you have to call it Call me uncle."
"Green-eyed golden-tailed fox?!" Zhao Fan's eyes were full of shock. This Yuan beast was mentioned in the inheritance message. Its bloodline is at the same level as Qingluan. Not only that, it is also ranked among the top ten. The second great soul soul beast, whenever a blue-eyed golden-tailed fox appears in the world, it will cause a huge sensation. Not only soul cultivators want to capture it, but also Yuan Xiu also dreams of it.
Because if you subdue a powerful soul beast, it means that you have made up for the shortcomings of the soul, and you will no longer be afraid of the unpredictable methods of the soul cultivator. And if you are lucky enough to get soul cultivation, it will be stronger and stronger, and it can even assist you in cultivating your soul!
It is worth mentioning that no matter which one of the ten soul beasts you want to successfully conquer, you can basically only attack them when their minds are immature in their infancy. Otherwise, once they reach the Xuan level, even if they are caught by the Heaven level monks, they will be captured. It would be better to have broken jade than complete tiles.
Therefore, Liang Rui must have had this mount because he was lucky enough to meet the green-eyed golden-tailed fox when it was still in its infancy.
"well……"
Liang Rui said with a somewhat sad expression: "However, one year, the little fox was poisoned by a strange poison in order to protect me. I tried all the methods I could think of, and also visited friends who were good at detoxifying, but to no avail. At most, It can last for a hundred years. As a soul beast, its soul and body are one and inseparable. It cannot change its body even if it wants to. It can last for a hundred years at most before it will lose its vitality! As a teacher, I can only watch it live for a day. I am weaker than ever and can't do anything. During this period, I even thought about bowing to the enemy in exchange for the antidote, but the little fox said that if this was the case, it would rather destroy its body and soul."
Zhao Fan felt that the teacher's mood was very low, so he did not interrupt and stood aside to listen quietly.
Then, Liang Rui sighed and said: "And this year is the last year of a hundred years, and its time is running out. That cave is where the teacher first met the little fox. Two years ago, it was already so weak that it could hardly survive unless it was overstretched, so it asked me to send it there to die."
"Then the teacher asked the disciple to go because..." Zhao Fan was still puzzled.
Liang Rui said with tears in his smile: "I brought you here for training because I wanted to accompany the little fox every now and then. When it learned that I had accepted such an outstanding disciple, its eyes were as happy as a resurrection of the dead. Just like a child, hahaha. Just the day before yesterday, it overdrafted the vitality and watched you in the dark. It saw with its own eyes how to separate the opening of the sky finger and the opening of the earth finger into one. At this point, the little fox decided One thing is that before it dies, it wants to do something that is of great significance to both it and its master, gifting its soul pattern to you and becoming your soul's spiritual form!"
"Soul pattern? Soul's spiritual form?"
Zhao Fan had never heard of these two things.
Liang Rui slowly explained: "The so-called soul pattern is what the soul beast condenses after it forcibly separates the soul body from the physical body and annihilates its consciousness. It can only be successfully condensed with the initiative of the soul beast with a magical bloodline." . If the soul pattern is not refined within seven days, it will be annihilated. Therefore, this kind of thing is extremely rare, and most soul cultivators do not have it, because there are very few soul beasts with magical bloodlines who are willing to do that. After all, once it is transformed, Being a soul pattern means that you have truly disappeared from the world, and not even a residual soul or even a trace of residual thoughts will be left."
Zhao Fan's heart twitched violently.
Liang Rui continued: "After a monk refines the soul pattern, he can possess the spirit form of the soul, which can be summoned at any time. When it appears, it will continue to consume the monk's soul power. The specific consumption depends on the strength of the means used. If no means are used, the soul power consumed is negligible. The limit of the power is the same as the monk's own power limit, but he has inherited all the combat experience of the corresponding soul beast during his lifetime, and can completely stand alone and assist in combat. In addition, the soul power The spirit phase of the soul also needs to be improved. For example, the little fox is in the middle of the earth level. Then, when you reach the late earth level, you will not be able to summon the spirit phase of the soul. At that time, you need to use your own soul power to do it. Nourish it until it reaches the same level as you before it can appear again.”
Zhao Fan looked down at the ground silently, his mood as heavy as ten thousand tons.
Firstly, his mother is a nine-tailed spirit fox, so she has a natural affinity for the fox clan that is different from other beasts. Secondly, the blue-eyed golden-tailed fox, as the teacher's mount, has been with him for countless years and experienced many hardships. He is equivalent to his master uncle.
However, the other party kept Zhao Fan in the dark and took the initiative to die and turn into a soul pattern, which became the spiritual aspect of his soul.
This love will never be repaid.
"When you are promoted to the Xuan level, you can summon the spirit phase of the soul." Liang Rui said decisively: "And you are a dual-source level-breaking person. Soul power and Yuan power are indistinguishable from each other. In this way, you have He has enough capital to summon the soul spirit to fight the enemy together, and he has the combat experience of the mid-level earth level when Xiaohu was alive, and his ultimate power is no less than you, and he has perfect tacit cooperation with you as the main body. .”
"Teacher, uncle, why... why did you do this? You... why didn't you refuse?" Zhao Fan was extremely conflicted. Although he longed to be strong, he did not want to do this at the expense of other people's lives, let alone his own uncle. In exchange for strength.
"Xiao Fan."
Liang Rui closed his teary eyes and said with a smile: "It will only live for half a year at most. It will die in such a way that the poison spreads and swallows it little by little. It is humiliating for any strong person. And the little fox also said, as long as It just exists in another way. This is also the last chance it has in its life to do something meaningful and important. So let me tell you, don't think too much, just keep it with peace of mind... …”
