"Yes, I think that when I practiced this technique, my cultivation was only at the early stage of Foundation Establishment." The Bronze Tiger Statue sighed, and then said, "Later, after my body was destroyed, I was so confused that I didn't know what to do. How many years have passed, I never thought that I can still see the techniques I practiced back then."
The voice of the bronze tiger statue is full of desolation, telling a past event that belongs to him.
"So that's it." Xu Nuo nodded slightly.
Xu Nuo looked at the exercise book, and an impulse suddenly emerged in his heart.
"If you practice this technique again, will you be able to regain the strength you had before?"
"Do you want to buy this skill?" said the Bronze Tiger Statue, "This skill is incomplete. There is only the upper part. I threw the lower part in the West Sea."
"Since you have practiced this technique yourself, wouldn't it be easy to practice it again?"
"Do you think that after hundreds of years, how much memory of the past will be left?" The tone of the Bronze Tiger Statue was a little low.
"Forget it," Xu Nuo said, "I guess your cultivation at that time was not very good. In my opinion, you should memorize your cultivation techniques to the point where you know them by heart. Buy it and give it a try."
The words of promise made the bronze tiger statue fall into silence.
After a while, the Bronze Tiger Statue said: "There is no complete technique here, and I don't remember the second half of it. Do you really want to try it?"
"If that doesn't work, then you should make extra preparations, just in case you don't know where to find the second half later."
Xu Nuo picked up the iron box, pretended to look at it, and then looked at the stall owner: "How much spiritual stone is this worth?"
"Sir, you are really discerning!" The stall owner walked up to him very attentively and said, "The things inside are recorded on sheepskin scrolls. They must be good things. The price is three thousand silver coins!"
"Three thousand silver coins..." Xu Nuo frowned slightly, and then said, "I'll give you two low-grade spiritual stones."
The stall owner smiled and said,
Xunuo glanced at the stall owner, smiled softly, put the Jiuluan Sword and the black box containing the Nine Apertures Thunder Fire Jue into the storage bag, and walked slowly out of the store.
At the same time, while walking, he communicated with the bronze tiger statue.
"How do you feel now that you know that the skills you practiced back then are now only worth three thousand silver coins, and can even be purchased easily with just two low-grade spiritual stones?"
"It's just a blind eye. I spent a lot of money to get it back then." Although the tone was a little flat, you can feel from the trembling from time to time that the Bronze Tiger Statue was not actually calm at this time.
Afterwards, Xu Nuo took out the sheepskin scroll recording the Nine Apertures Thunder and Fire Technique from the iron box, walked to a corner and took a rough look.
When he looked at the contents, the picture he had seen before emerged in his mind. It was an extremely complicated formation pattern that looked very complicated.
Where have you seen this kind of formation pattern before?
But no matter how Xu Nuo thought about it, he still couldn't remember when he had seen such formation patterns.
Compared with this, when I was in the Yunxiao Sect, when I was attacked by the Ten Thousand Poison Sect, the formation patterns on the formations set up by the opponent were as simple as the graffiti drawn by a child.
"It does look good." Xu Nuo thought to himself, then reached out and took the skill book into his arms.
Suddenly, Xu Nuo had a whim, what would be the effect if the formation patterns on this scroll were copied on the paper used for drawing formations?
Xu Nuo bought a piece of paper and a pen from a sundry shop in the south of the city, then placed the parchment scroll underneath and began to outline the formation patterns.
Xu Nuo's movements were extremely slow, and every finger seemed to be nailed to the table, tracing the formation patterns slowly and accurately.
"At this speed, I'm afraid I won't be able to finish the painting in one day!" Xu Nuo curled his lips and said to himself.
But at this time, the bronze tiger statue on the side suddenly made a mockery.
"What are you thinking about? The lines on it have no meaning." The bronze tiger statue sneered.
Xu Nuo ignored it and continued to draw the pattern.
"Since you said that you have forgotten many things due to time, then this may be one of them. Since these formations are here, there must be a reason for them to be here."
"Hmph." Bronze Tiger snorted coldly, "Just wait until all your efforts are in vain!"
"casual!"
Just as the Bronze Tiger Statue finished speaking, Xu Nuo muttered as if it didn't matter.
The bronze tiger statue rolled its eyes and said nothing.
Xu Nuo didn't know the slander in the bronze tiger statue's heart. He was now fully focused on drawing the formation patterns.
"There are nine levels in total, and each level is divided into six levels. The formation on the first level is the simplest, but it is still not something I can crack now."
"But I can vaguely feel that these are indeed not formation patterns, but a kind of..." Xu Nuo frowned and thought for a while, then patted his head, "Compared to formations, they are more like A kind of puzzle.”
"The things hidden behind this are indeed very powerful. It's a pity that I have only reached the peak of the early stage of foundation building. If I want to decipher the content, I need to improve it to another level." Xu Nuo thought to himself.
Thinking of this, Xu Nuo had a doubt in his heart.
Is it possible that there are other secrets hidden in this Nine Apertures Thunder Fire Technique?
"Don't think about it, the content inside is useless." Bronze Tiger Statue said again, "I used to practice the Nine Apertures Thunder Fire Technique to perfection within a month, even to the level of perfection. Naturally, I also tried it like you. Deciphering these lines, but the subsequent conclusion is that the things inside are all written in vain.”
"Written blindly?" Xu Nuo raised his eyebrows slightly.
"Yes, it's just like making it up. The patterns inside are all messy things. Do you think I am so idle that I would randomly leave the information I want on some patterns?"
"If you don't believe it, feel free to crack it, but you'd better not memorize the patterns. Otherwise, when the time comes, you will go crazy and practice to death, and I won't know how to explain it."
"Account?" Xunuo asked confused, "Account to whom?"
The bronze tiger statue chuckled and said nothing, but turned his gaze to the jade slip in Xu Nuo's arms, "You'd better not think about the meaning behind these lines. Practice the techniques in them honestly. If I remember, Something that can at least give you some guidance."
Xu Nuo was moved in his heart, but he still shook his head and refused.
"Forget it, I can find the clues to this sheepskin scroll myself, so I won't bother you." Xu Nuo said.
Upon hearing this, the expression on the Bronze Tiger Statue's face changed several times, and finally he sneered: "If you don't want to, there's nothing you can do about it."
Xu Nuo clicked his tongue and continued sketching on the paper.
After some copying, Xu Nuo copied nearly half of the lines, but the subsequent parts were quite complicated, and it didn't take long for him to feel a little mentally exhausted.
Xu Nuo stood up, glanced at the bronze tiger statue, then turned and left.
The Bronze Tiger Statue stared at Xu Nuo's back for a while, then snorted coldly: "I don't know how to praise you!"
Xu Nuo ignored the yelling of the bronze tiger statue and walked straight towards the south of the city.
After he walked away, the bronze tiger statue suddenly turned into a golden cat and followed Xu Nuo.
"Hmph, brat, when you reach a point where you don't understand anything in your cultivation, I will make you kneel on the ground and beg me to tell you!" the bronze tiger statue snorted coldly.
"Meow~!" The golden cat let out a very unhappy meow.
Xu Nuo paused, then lowered his head and looked at the sheepskin scroll in his hand.
He wanted to record all the content on it before. At the beginning, it was not just for recording, but also to remember the lines in his mind. But in fact, when the Bronze Tiger Statue said that these lines were meaningless, He gave up the idea.
Because these lines look like the formation plates of certain formations, or other strange symbols, they are not offensive at all, and he is still in the body refining stage. Even if he learns these lines, he can only It's just a waste of time.
Thinking of this, Xu Nuo directly threw the sheepskin scroll in his hand into the space ring.
After that, Xu Nuo did not return to Yunxiao Sect, but continued to wander around the town.
He always had a feeling that there was something in this place that he hadn't found yet.
When Xu Nuo informed the Bronze Tiger Statue of his thoughts, as expected, he was laughed at by the Bronze Tiger Statue again.
On this day, Xu Nuo got up early and took out a bunch of medicinal materials that he had obtained a few days ago.
Xu Nuo first placed the medicinal herbs on the floor in the house, then took out a bunch of herbs from the storage ring and arranged them all neatly.
It would be perfect if these herbs could be grown and self-sufficient.
It's a pity that if the medicinal herbs with spiritual energy are to take shape, it may not even pass the growth stage if it does not go through ten or eight years.
Moreover, within one year before this, the effectiveness of the medicine must be ensured, otherwise as time passes, the effectiveness of the medicine will be greatly weakened.
Xu Nuo sighed, no wonder most people who cultivated immortals would join the sect. Even if it was only a very small sect, its background was not comparable to that of ordinary monks.
"No matter, I have plenty of time now, so let's study it slowly."
Xu Nuo sighed, and then continued to study these herbs.
While he was busy, something happened in the town.
In the center of the town, several people suddenly appeared out of thin air, and as soon as they appeared, they started looking around.
This group of people are dressed very strangely. They wear black cloaks that cover their faces. They are also extremely short in stature, just like ordinary farmers. Only their eyes are very bright, like a pair of eagles. , exuding sharp and sharp eyes.
As soon as these people appeared, they drove away all the surrounding people and businesses, and then looted all the houses.
After they drove away the people around them, they went straight into a house.
The construction of this house is completely different from the surrounding buildings. It is like a huge warehouse, surrounded by mountains, and has many doorways, which looks eerie.
One of them took out a jade slip: "The man's name is Xu Nuo. This is the man's appearance. It was carved on the jade slip by the Lord. Find him as soon as possible, life or death."
Another man took the jade slip and put it between his eyebrows. As soon as the jade slip touched his skin, it emitted a soft light and turned into light spots and disappeared.
"Don't worry, brother, as long as he dares to appear in front of us, his life will be worse than death!" another person said.
...
Xu Nuo didn't know what was happening in the outside world, and was currently studying the patterns on the sheepskin scroll in his hand.
Although Xu Nuo has only initially grasped some of the context on the sheepskin scroll, he has also benefited a lot from the process of studying these contexts.
"Huh? There are two roads going in different directions!"
Suddenly, Xu Nuo let out a low cry of surprise.
On the parchment scroll, there are two lines.
One of them is golden, while the other is off-white.
Xu Nuo looked at the two lines and was very excited. "These are two veins. The golden and gray veins and ravines seem to form a dragon shape?"
Thinking of this, Xu Nuo's heart was pounding. He took a deep breath, and then returned his attention to the sheepskin scroll in his hand.
"Two dragon veins?!"
Xu Nuo murmured, "Is it possible that what is recorded on this scroll is not the direction of the dragon's veins?!"
Do it as soon as you think of it, Xu Nuo didn't hesitate at all, and immediately began to study the scroll in his hand.
He first used his mental power to explore and covered all the trends of the two dragon veins.
It turned out that the veins of the two dragon veins were indeed different from ordinary veins. The two veins were circular, with a straight line in the middle, and the other side was curved, like an earthworm.
"How is this going?"
Xu Nuo frowned and murmured in confusion.
Xu Nuo observed carefully for a while, but still couldn't figure out why this dragon vein appeared on the sheepskin scroll.
Xu Nuo tried several more times, but still couldn't figure out the problem.
"Forget it, let's study the information contained in it first." Xu Nuo shook his head, "No matter whether the original owner of this scroll has really studied this thing thoroughly, just judging from the words in it, it is also very valuable. , and this thing is also a bit strange."
Thinking of this, Xu Nuo focused all his attention on the veins of these two dragon veins.
When Xu Nuo's mental exploration entered the two veins, he found that there was a faint white mist shrouding the veins of the two dragon veins. Moreover, these white mist were not made of pure energy, but were also mixed with some simple and simple energy. And a mysterious atmosphere.
Thinking of this, Xu Nuo's eyes flashed with solemnity involuntarily: "I don't know what is hidden here, but my current level is still too low, I'm afraid I can only see this much."
Xu Nuo put away the parchment scroll.
He stood up and stretched. .
However, when Xu Nuo turned around, he saw an old man walking slowly towards him.
This old man looked to be about seventy years old, with a slightly hunched body, an old complexion, slightly white temples, and looked a little thin.
When the old man reached a distance of five meters from Xu Nuo, he stopped. He raised his head and glanced around, and then his eyes fell on Xu Nuo.
At this time, Xu Nuo looked at the old man in surprise.
The feeling the other party gave him was very strong, far beyond the level he could understand, and even more terrifying than those monster beasts.
Xu Nuo could feel that there was a kind of heart-stopping power pulsating in the other person's body.
This fluctuation made him uneasy.
"Be careful." The bronze tiger statue turned into a kitten and rushed to Xu Nuo's shoulder. "That man has a strong murderous intention and is targeting you."
"Is that what you promised?"
