When Yiran woke up, the fire in front of him was burning, the broth on the shelf still exuded a strong fragrance, and Huang Zhan in front of him was staring at him with a very strange look.
It seems like she wants to see through herself, but it feels more like looking at a beautiful woman.
This made Yiran very confused and he couldn't help but touch his face. Could it be that he had flowers on his face?
When Huang Zhan saw Yiran's actions, he realized that he had lost his composure, but he didn't care at all and continued to look at Yiran, the weirdness in his eyes getting even stronger.
The gentle breeze swayed the bells under the eaves of the attic, and the crisp ringtones brought sunshine and laughter to the world, soothing the destruction and pain caused by the battle.
Huang Zhan moved his position and sat next to Yiran. Seeing that Zhao Tianming and the three children were busy at the side, he whispered to Yiran, "Didn't you go to take the talent test? And it should be because the elemental stone didn't show that you have magic talent, otherwise you wouldn't go to the first place." Martial Arts Academy, but how can you still use thunder magic? And to what extent has your strength reached?"
Yiran touched his head again, looked at the gently swinging bell, and patted the dust on his sleeves. He didn't know how to explain it to Huang Zhan.
So far, Huang Zhan is the first one to see himself using thunder spells, and he will definitely use more spells in the future.
Seeing that Yiran didn't answer, Huang Zhan spoke again and said, "Magic and martial arts are two different cultivation systems that were born due to the differences in the human body and mind. There have been people who practiced magic and martial arts at the same time in history. They either had both paths." Either you didn’t go very far, or you chose a weak path as a support.”
"Although I don't know your specific situation, I hope you can have your own ideas in your mind and find a path that suits you. Although I don't know what level of martial arts you practice, you now have the strength of a great warrior. It shows that your talent in martial arts is extremely evil. In my opinion, you can focus more on martial arts."
"Oh, I won't say anything unnecessary."
Listening to Huang Zhan's sigh, Yiran felt a little sorry in his heart. The two mentors I met tried their best to help me, but I couldn't tell them many secrets I had.
"Teacher Huang Zhan, I know how to do it. Can you tell me what happens to those who practice magic and martial arts at the same time?"
Huang Zhan's eyes instantly drifted into the distance, recalling the things he knew. He involuntarily took out two gourd wines from the space ring and handed one to Yiran.
He took a big sip, but immediately coughed and spit out a mouthful of bloody phlegm. He rubbed his chest and stopped whispering.
"There have been many people who cultivated both magic and martial arts in the history of the Wind and Fire Principality. Among them, the second king is the most powerful. He is also the strongest person in the history of the Wind and Fire Principality. When he was seven years old, he took countless secret medicines but did not... Feeling the power of the elements, he began to practice martial arts and his martial arts talent was extremely evil. He had reached the six-star warrior level when he was eight years old in the talent test. At that time, it was the most glorious generation in the Wind and Fire Principality, and it was the gold that gave birth to countless evildoers. During the era, they opened up remote areas and bravely launched an attack on the World of Warcraft Forest."
After saying this, Huang Zhan's eyes returned to Yiran. Although he didn't know Yiran's cultivation during the talent test, his current performance must have surpassed that senior's.
Looking at Yiran with eyes full of love and concern, Huang Zhan continued.
"After taking countless secret medicines without any effect, he unexpectedly felt the power of the fire element during the talent test, and even awakened the Naling Demon Mansion! For others, the effect of the Naling Demon Mansion is to accelerate their cultivation. But for him, he can practice martial arts while awake and practice magic while sleeping. The two paths of cultivation can go hand in hand with almost no influence or conflict."
"From then on, he never suffered a defeat in his life, and his strength overwhelmed the geniuses of his generation. In his forties, his martial arts and magic both reached the sixth level, and his strength was no less than that of the founder of the country, so he put his name on Changed to Tang Wudi. With full confidence, he went to practice in the Tianxin Empire where countless strong men gathered, and went there to challenge countless strong men. However, he came back after only five years. By that time, his strength had already reached the spiritual level and became He became the first person in the Principality of Wind and Fire and took over the position of the country's leader, and even pushed the border of the Principality of Wind and Fire five hundred miles toward the Warcraft Forest. The Principality of Wind and Fire has become the strongest among the dozen or so surrounding principalities."
"Tang Wudi's name ranks second on the Monument of Merit, and he has left countless legends. However, there is no record of his journey to the empire. It is also unknown how he cultivated and was able to transform from He has just stepped into the sixth level and grown into a spiritual level powerhouse."
After telling these stories, Huang Zhan's eyes were full of reverence. It has to be said that being able to leave one's name on the merit monument is something to be proud of, let alone being ranked second. The combat power of both magic and martial arts practitioners was far superior to those of the same level, not to mention that Tang Wudi's cultivation level had already reached the spiritual level.
When Huang Zhan told these stories, the three children Ma Mingyao, Temusheng, and Zhou Ming also gathered around, listening with great interest and full of longing for their future.
Only Zhao Tianming was a little surprised why Huang Zhan told the story of Tang Wudi.
Zhao Tianming also knew that the names on the merit monument were all people who had made great contributions to the Principality of Wind and Fire. Each of them had their own growth experiences and legendary stories written by contemporary historians.
I also know some records about Tang Wudi. Although I don't know as much about his experiences as Huang Zhan, I also know that if the first ruler had not contributed to the founding of the country, his achievements would definitely rank first in the monument of merit.
After talking about Tang Wudi's records, Huang Zhan continued to tell the story.
"I have a clan uncle whose situation is very similar to that of senior Tang Wudi. He also started practicing martial arts without awakening the elemental sensitivity after taking the secret medicine. He also unexpectedly felt the power of the elements during the talent test."
"When he was still young, he really managed to surpass his contemporaries. Even now, he is invincible at the same level and can even fight across levels."
This sentence made Ma Mingyao's three children fascinated. They were invincible at the same level and fought across different levels. How heroic and magnificent they were. If I could cultivate both magic and martial arts and become such a great person, that would be such an amazing thing.
Zhao Tianming heard something wrong in Huang Zhan's tone, but he didn't know what the problem was specifically.
Yiran frowned and asked directly, "You were able to surpass your contemporaries when you were young, but what happened later? Being able to be invincible at the same level means you are indeed very strong."
"Later. Because he practiced magic and martial arts at the same time, even though he practiced much longer than others, his realm was still surpassed by others. When he was at the first level, he could still fight even if others stepped into the second level. When he stepped into the second level of martial arts and magic, other geniuses had already half-stepped into the third level. At that time, my clan uncle's combat power was already slightly behind. When the clan uncle's magic cultivation level reached the magic level, Master, those geniuses of the same generation have already entered the fourth level, and the gap in cultivation is getting wider and wider."
"By the time my clan uncle specialized in one path, it was already too late. Now his cultivation level is only a ten-star magician and a three-star martial artist. Among his peers, not to mention the former leader Tang Zong who has reached the spiritual level, there are many other geniuses. They have all reached level six.”
"You must know that even the head of the Tang Sect was no match for my uncle during the two years of practice."
"But his strength cannot keep up with his age. Even if he is invincible at the same level and can fight across levels, it has no meaning at all."
Zhao Tianming frowned, he had never heard of such a thing. On the merit monument, only senior Tang Wudi was a master of both magic and martial arts. This gave Zhao Tianming the impression that he was very strong in both magic and martial arts.
And why did Huang Zhan tell the story of these people who cultivated magic and martial arts? Zhao Tianming couldn't help but look at Yiran.
Yiran also understood what Huang Zhan meant. Demonic and martial arts were indeed very strong, but if they slowed down his own cultivation speed, it would be meaningless. It's just that I am not a magician and a martial artist, but an immortal. What I use is not magic but magic or immortal skills!
Ma Mingyao's three children couldn't help nodding after listening. They didn't have enough time to practice martial arts. Even if they could practice magic, they didn't have that much money or that much energy!
Huang Zhan finished telling this story and drank all the wine in the gourd. There was still a possibility of dual cultivation. He believed that Yiran could know about it without telling him. The second cultivation path is actually enough if it can play a supporting role.
Putting the empty wine gourd into the space ring, Huang Zhan stood up and discussed the next action with Zhao Tianming. Huang Zhan knew that Zhao Tianming was eager to go to Liuxue City, so he decided to go directly to Liuxue City.
Huang Zhan and Yi Ran were both wounded, but after taking the pills made by Yi Ran, they had recovered to a certain extent and were able to recover while on the road.
Yiran put the wine gourd into the space ring. This was the second wine gourd given to him by his mentor Huang Zhan, but he had not tasted it yet. He looked at Huang Zhan leaving a mark on the wall next to him, and with his inner strength he wrote, "All six of you are fine. We have gone to Liu Xuecheng. Don't worry about reading the letter. If you have no mission, you can go back to the academy first."
After Huang Zhan finished carving the letter, the six of them boarded the carriage and headed north towards Liu Xuecheng. Huang Zhan and Zhao Tianming were still driving, but only four children were left in the carriage.
The bells under the Guzhen attic were still gently swaying in the breeze. The sound of "ding, ding, ding" was crisp and lively, without any hint of gloominess.
The sound of the bells clashing is like music, like bidding farewell to an occasional visitor, or calling out an old friend who has left.
The scorching sun facing west still shines its rays on this land, and the withered yellow grassland outside Guzhen becomes green again under the nourishment of the majestic spiritual energy.
When passing through Baishou Town, Yi Ran had an inexplicable feeling of intimacy in his heart, like someone returning to his hometown after being away for many years. It was the resonance of the severed mental power and blood essence with him. He opened the curtains of the carriage and took a distant look, then came back to his senses and closed his eyes to meditate.
The carriage galloped all the way without stopping. When night fell, it was approaching Qianye Town, the southernmost town in Liuxue City. Once here, it was the territory that Zhao Tianming was familiar with.
But before Zhao Tianming could go to the town to investigate, there was a huge roar in the distance, and the violent energy fluctuations set off huge wind waves and blew towards them, making people almost unsteady.
There is a battle ahead, and it is quite powerful!
Immediately hiding the carriage, Huang Zhan and Zhao Tianming moved towards the direction of the energy explosion while maintaining this formation.
Before reaching the battlefield, a howl of "howling" came from far away. This was the howl of a wolf! And just from the sound, you can easily tell that its strength is not weaker than the Wolf King of the Gale Demon Wolf!
Then several more wolf howls of "Oow, ow, ow" came at the same time, seemingly in response to the first wolf howl, and their momentum was only slightly weaker than the first one.
This is a wolf pack that has reached the level of first-order monsters, and there are still several of them.
"Boom, boom, boom." Along with the howling of the wolves, there were constant explosions of energy collisions. The violent energy brought up strong winds and swept over Yiran and the others one after another.
The battle has begun head-on.
Yiran could feel the power of elements contained in the riot energy, including wind and fire elements, as well as the faint water element. In other words, there are at least three second-level great magicians participating in the battle!
Yiran and the others immediately speeded up and headed towards the battlefield.
When he reached the edge of the battlefield, he was finally able to see the battle clearly. After seeing the scene, Zhao Tianming calmed down and explained the current situation to them.
"This is a standard combat team on the border, a group of ten people. Among them are wind magicians responsible for reconnaissance, fire magicians with powerful destructive power, and water magicians who can defend and have healing abilities. This is what each team The standard equipment for a combat team. There may also be one or two magicians, and the rest are all martial arts practitioners."
"This allows for tactical adjustments based on the target and the strength of your own team, so this team has the best chance of surviving on the battlefield."
"Their opponents are five dark demon wolves, all of which are first-level advanced and peak, and their strength is extremely strong. There are seven martial arts practitioners in the battle team. Judging from their aura, they should have just broken through the great warriors. They killed one by themselves. The advanced Dark Demonic Wolf is still a bit difficult."
"You see, four of them are restraining the first-level advanced dark wolf, and the remaining three are restraining the first-level peak one. The three magicians are looking for opportunities to attack them and inflict heavy damage on them."
"This is the best way to fight Warcraft, which can minimize the possibility of injury. The only shortcoming is that it is too defensive and over-striving for stability."
After saying this, Zhao Tianming blinked at Yiran. He knew that Yiran had packed up a pack of six first-level wind demon wolves and hundreds of ordinary demon wolves within an hour!
A lot of the fur of the first-level peak dark demon wolf in the battlefield has been burnt black, and there are small blood grooves cut by the wind blade on the thick thighs. Although the other four first-level advanced dark demon wolves did not receive such care, they still had many wounds on their bodies.
I saw a middle-aged man holding his staff high and chanting the name of the magic "Explosive Flame Technique". In an instant, five sky-blue fireballs appeared in the air, dragging their long tails like comets, and crashed towards the five dark demon wolves. . Under the restraint of the great warrior, it was extremely difficult for the Dark Demon Wolf to dodge.
The two red leaves on the chest of the robe and the three silver stars on the collar show his strength to everyone.
"Boom, boom, boom, boom, boom" there were five explosions, and four fireballs passed by the dark demon wolf and hit the ground, creating a huge hole. Although it just passed by, the high temperature of the flames burned half of the dark demon wolf's body into charred ashes.
Yiran and the others could smell the strong smell of paste in the distance.
One of the dark demon wolves was hit by a fireball on its hind legs because it was unable to dodge. The hind legs were immediately blown into two pieces, and its bones were exposed in the air and bled.
"Woo, woo, woo" came from its mouth endless wails, and it was even more unsteady with one leg missing.
Then it became the common target of the three magicians.
"Wind Slash" After a female magician chanted softly, a wind elemental blade appeared. This female magician is young, has short hair, is extremely capable, and sings magic with a meticulous expression.
Wind Slash is an enhanced version of Bifeng Blade, and is one of the strongest single-target damage skills that can be used in the Great Mage stage.
"Whoops!" A huge green light cut through the sky, slashing at the dark demon wolf with its broken leg.
At the same time, the water magician's magic chant has also been completed, "Water Condensation Technique". I saw three water columns surrounding the three legs of the dark demon wolf, making it difficult for the wind demon wolf to move.
The water magician is a very handsome young man with slightly strange dark blue hair, exquisite facial features, and meticulous observation of the battlefield.
When the water condensation technique controlled the dark demon wolf, the martial arts cultivator in charge immediately retreated several feet.
In the blink of an eye, the martial artist retreated, the water column appeared, the wind slash came, and the dark demon wolf's head was cut off in one go. The cooperation between the few people was extremely tacit. There was no communication, but there was no mistake at all.
After the first dark demon wolf was killed, the remaining martial arts cultivators immediately participated in the rest of the battle.
"Aow, ow, aw!" With the death of the dark demon wolf, the remaining howls were full of sorrow and unwillingness. The dark demon wolf at the peak of the first level instantly became furious and went berserk. Its combat power instantly increased and scattered the three martial arts cultivators.
The blue-haired youth immediately changed the target of the attack, and water curtains appeared in front of the Dark Demon Wolf. Although the water curtain broke at a touch, it continued to restrict the movement and speed of the Dark Demon Wolf, constantly consuming its physical strength, and made the three The famous martial arts cultivator can restrain this dark demonic wolf more easily.
At this time, the middle-aged fire mage and the short-haired woman tried their best to kill the dark demon wolf that was restrained by two martial arts cultivators.
I saw the two great warriors each holding their arms around the head of the dark demon wolf, using all their strength with veins all over their heads. Another person pulled the wolf's tail and restrained the dark demon wolf tightly.
Even so, the dark demon wolf raised its front paws and smashed the wind chop that was coming towards him, exploding it into countless messy wind elements. It was just that the fireball falling from the sky was no longer able to withstand it. The hot and explosive fireball instantly burned the fur of the dark demon wolf, broke its spine, and stabbed into his body.
Accompanied by bursts of the aroma of roasted meat, the dark demon wolf died suddenly, and its body fell limp and lifeless.
With such tacit cooperation, the dark demon wolves were all turned into corpses in the hands of this team within half an hour.
As for the corpses of the first-order monsters that fell to the ground, no one had the desire to possess them. Only when all the dark demon wolves were dead did the water mage put them away.
After the battle was over and the body of the dark demon wolf was cleaned up, the calm voice of the blue-haired young man came from a distance: "Dear friends, I haven't taken any action after watching it for so long. I guess I don't have any bad intentions. Now that the battle is over, come out." Let’s get together.”
