Shen Luo looked at the skull tattoo on his shoulder and felt a chill on his back.
This black skull tattoo was extremely lifelike. At first glance, it looked like a real skull was biting on his shoulder, as if it could fly out of his body at any time, and there was no trace of the previous teeth marks.
He had encountered many bizarre things in his dreams before, so his ability to withstand them was much stronger. However, when he suddenly saw this scene in the dark, he still couldn't help but tremble in his heart.
Shen Luo took a deep breath, calmed himself down, and began to observe the pattern carefully.
The black lines that make up this pattern look very much like talismans, exuding a sense of mystery.
Apart from its creepy appearance, the tattoo pattern was not painful or itchy at all, and he probably wouldn't have noticed it if he hadn't taken off his clothes and seen it.
"Could it be related to the white skull before? Could it be that this skull tattoo is transformed from the white skull?" Shen Luo touched his chin and guessed secretly in his heart.
He reached out and touched the tattoo and found that the skin there was the same as the surrounding area, without any bulges or depressions, as if it was really just a tattoo.
He scratched the skin a few more times with his fingernails. Apart from causing some pain, the pattern was not affected at all, as if the skin had always been like that.
Shen Luo pondered for a moment, then sat cross-legged on the spot, practicing the Xiao Hua Yang Gong, directing the yang energy rising from his dantian to his shoulders.
Soon, his entire shoulder was covered in a faint red light, and the surface of his skin was slightly glowing red. However, the black skull tattoo on his shoulder was also glowing red except for the hollow parts such as the eye sockets and nose, while the rest of the body was still dark, without any abnormality.
"Now that my Xiao Hua Yang Gong has been perfected, the Yang Gang Qi it generates is far more powerful than before. If it were an evil being, it would not be so calm."
Shen Luo did not stop there, and tried several methods, such as punching, slapping, biting, and pouring water on it, trying to remove the black skull tattoo, but without exception, all ended in failure.
"Forget it. It looks like there's no problem for now. Let's just leave it this way for now. To be honest, if it weren't for this adventure, the Xiao Hua Yang Gong would have been difficult for me. I hope this nameless technique won't be so difficult." Shen Luo didn't continue to dwell on it and started to think about the nameless technique again.
According to Master Feng Yang and Master Luo, if the Xiao Hua Yang Gong is mastered, his life span can be extended by about two to three years. However, whether this amount of time can allow him to achieve his wish is still unclear.
But no matter what, having come this far, he would never back down.
Shen Luo thought so in his heart, stood up, shook his arms, waded into the stream, and sat cross-legged in the shallow water, just enough that the water covered his chest and stopped below his neck.
Then he closed his eyes and concentrated, carefully recalling the cultivation formula of the first level of the nameless magic formula. After confirming that it was correct, he breathed in and out according to the magic formula.
Different from Xiao Hua Yang Gong, this unnamed technique paid more attention to the connection with the outside world. While breathing in and out, one must also concentrate and sense the outside world.
Shen Luo was not used to it at first, but after breathing in and out stumblingly for a while, he gradually got into the state.
