"Xiao Chen, you actually dare to kill the elder of my Zhang family." After being surprised, the head of the Zhang family said angrily. The Zhang family members behind him quickly stepped forward, looking like they were about to start a fight.
The great elder Xiao Qiang stepped forward quickly, and all the warriors of the Xiao family pushed forward without fear. Xiao Chen sneered and said: "He wants to kill me, why can't I kill me? It's just that I hate your kind of ambush from behind. If you don’t want your son to be killed when he goes out, you’d better stop playing this trick.”
"And your Tang family." Xiao Chen turned his eyes to Tang Tiandao, "Don't play this trick on me again. If you are not afraid of me having no descendants, I don't mind helping you."
"That's too much bullying. Xiao Chen, do you want to have a clan fight before our ten-year appointment? You actually dare to ask me to annihilate my descendants." Tang Tian's face turned purple with anger, and the people behind him also gathered around, looking at him eagerly.
Xiao Qiang, who had been silent all this time, suddenly said: "A clan fight is a clan fight. I, the Xiao family, are still afraid that you will fail. If you dare to use whatever means you have, my Xiao family will take care of it. Although my Xiao family is not strong, we are still strong." It will never be like some people secretly joining forces to play small tricks.”
"Before the trial even started, they sent two of their own elders to guard my Xiao family camp. Unfortunately, fate played tricks on them and they were both killed."
Dugu Feng's expression changed and he said, "Is there such a thing?"
Tang Tian thought quickly in his heart that this matter was not very honorable and had violated the agreement with the city lord. He must not admit it at this time, "Xiao Qiang, don't slander others. You must provide evidence before you speak."
"Evidence, the bodies of the elders of your two families have been buried by us a long time ago. If you want evidence, I can dig them out for you now. I want you to explain now that the elders of your two families have not yet started the trial. Why are you running to my Xiao family's camp?" Xiao Qiang looked at the two of them and sneered.
Tang Tian and the head of the Zhang family were stunned. They did not expect that these four people were actually dead, and their bodies were found by the Xiao family. It was really difficult to explain at this time.
Dugu Feng opened his mouth to save the situation and said: "Elder Xiao, since no one in the Xiao family was harmed, how about we put this matter aside for today. The Xiao family has gained a lot from this trial, and I will definitely report it to the superiors after I return."
As the lord of Mohe City, the last thing Dugu Feng wants to see is a clan fight between the three families. This will cause a lot of casualties, and it will be difficult for him to handle it if the higher-ups investigate.
Xiao Qiang doesn't want to have an attack now. The situation is clear now. The Zhang and Tang families have joined forces, and there is an invisible powerful force behind them supporting them. The situation is obviously not good for the Xiao family.
If a clan fight really happens, the Xiao family will definitely suffer a lot. Now they can only focus on the ten-year fight.
Seeing Xiao Qiang's silence, Dugu Feng already guessed what he was thinking. He turned his attention to the heads of the other two families and said, "I don't want to see this kind of thing again in the future. You can compete, but it's best not to fight to the death." ”
Tang Tian and the head of the Zhang family were at a loss at this time, and the city lord was willing to give them a step up, so they followed the trend and made some grand remarks.
"The trial is over. You don't need to worry about things here. Let's all go back." Dugu Feng finally said.
…
The results of the trial spread throughout Mohe City the next day. The Xiao family once again won first place, and somehow the trial process was spread.
In front of the Zhang and Tang families, Xiao Chen suddenly came up with a joke about twenty or so third-level demon cores, which spread everywhere and became the talk of every major teahouse.
After Xiao Chen defeated Zhang He, he once again became the focus of everyone's discussion. Regarding the ten-year appointment in one month, everyone thought that the Xiao family would have nothing to worry about with Xiao Chen.
Mohe City, Xiao Family.
After the trial, Xiao Chen and other warriors who were preparing for the ten-year agreement were strictly ordered by the great elder not to go out. At this critical moment, if a player is injured, he will cry during the ten-year contract.
Although the Zhang and Tang families have promised that there will be no more petty tricks, this guarantee is really not reassuring. When the time comes, all they have to do is to prove that there is no evidence.
In Xiao Chen's yard, Xiao Chen was not in a hurry to practice. He was holding a small knife and carving something on the spiritual wood he obtained from the tree spirit last time.
On the stone table, there are all small works carved by Xiao Chen, of all kinds, from birds and animals to various figures. It’s just that the quality varies, and many of them are just a bunch of different works.
A few days after returning from the dark forest, Xiao Chen felt that he had faintly touched the edge of a martial artist and could break through as soon as the opportunity came.
Therefore, he did not spend all his time on cultivation. Before the ten-year agreement of cultivation, he was only at the level of a junior martial artist.
This is not cost-effective, it is better to take advantage of this little time to study the immortal arts and talismans in the Encyclopedia of Cultivation. A few days after returning, he bought a large amount of wood and began to train his own carving.
After spending a week carving more than a thousand works on ordinary wood, Xiao Chen began to officially carve on the piece of spiritual wood, but he only took a small piece.
call!
Xiao Chen gently placed this finger-sized work in his hand. It was a swallow, the creature from his previous life, carved at this moment. Although the image was very similar, Xiao Chen always felt that it lacked a bit of charm.
"Second Young Master, are you carving something again? You are really free. I just saw Miss Yulan and Xiao Jian fighting each other in the martial arts training ground. Are you working hard?" Baoer walked over and said with a large bag of things on his back. .
Xiao Chen smiled softly when he heard this, picked up a work on the stone table, and said to Bao'er: "This is for you, see if it looks like it."
Bao'er took it and took a look and found that the wood carving was carved in her image. His face turned red and he felt a little happy in his heart. He said, "Second Young Master, you really carved Bao'er."
After saying that, he put the things he bought aside, took the wood carving, and ran away shyly. Xiao Chen looked at Bao'er's back and smiled slightly. Looking at the things she bought, he felt very grateful.
These days, Xiao Chen can't go out. Bao'er has to do all the errands for him when he wants to buy things. And his consumption is large, which is a very hard thing for a girl.
Carrying the things Bao'er bought, Xiao Chen slowly walked towards his room. After entering the room, the relaxed expression on Xiao Chen's face was gone.
He held the swallow carved from spiritual wood in his hand, concentrated hard, and tapped it gently. The spiritual energy on the swallow suddenly became extremely rich, exuding the brilliance of life.
beat! beat!
The swallow had grown in size and was about the same size as a normal bird. It flapped its wings in the air and actually came to life. It heard crisp calls that made people feel refreshed.
Success!
Xiao Chen said with surprise in his heart, this is a spell in the Encyclopedia of Cultivation that turns objects into weapons, and can transform advanced creatures out of thin air.
It's just that Xiao Chen's current cultivation level is low and he cannot reach the level of spreading beans into soldiers. He needs to carve out the creatures he wants to create first, and the materials must also have spiritual energy.
These days, he has tried many times with ordinary wood carvings, but none of them have succeeded. Only today's wood carvings made from spiritual wood have been able to complete this technique.
Xiao Chen stretched his hand into the air. The swallow sensed Xiao Chen's thoughts and flew into his hand with a swoop. Xiao Chen smiled and gently touched the creature he created. He put his hand up to the sky and flew into his hand again. Circled.
Xiao Chen withdrew his gaze and turned to the things Bao'er bought, taking them out one by one and putting them on the desk. Xiao Chen took out a writing brush, a large bottle of spirit beast blood, and stacks of yellow paper.
These yellow papers are not ordinary papers, but are made from the fur and bones of spiritual animals, and are very expensive. When Xiao Chen learned that there was such ready-made spiritual paper for sale in this world, he was excited for a whole day.
These papers are naturally used for making talismans, but the people in this world only see its anti-corrosion function. Using it to record some important documents and books is simply a waste of talent.
Fu Zhuan is an important attack method in immortal arts. In the past, Xiao Chen never took the time to study it because he had no time and insufficient cultivation.
On the eve of the war, Xiao Chen had some leisure time. It would be a pity not to use it for research at this time.
Xiao Chen poured the spirit beast's blood into the ink bottle, then took out a third-level demon core, crushed it, turned it into powder and put it in.
The medicine bottle containing the spirit beast's blood boiled instantly, gray blood rose from the surface, and the red blood changed into a richer purple.
After adding the demon core and spirit beast blood, Xiao Chen felt satisfied in his heart when he saw that the spiritual energy contained in the blood had obviously increased several times.
Taking the brush in his hand and tapping the purple spiritual liquid, Xiao Chen began to formally draw the talisman. As soon as his mind moved, the spiritual energy around him began to slowly flow towards the tip of the pen.
Following Xiao Chen's movements, runes appeared on the yellow paper one by one, and wherever the purple spiritual liquid passed, there was a faint halo.
When Xiao Chen finished the last stroke, the light on the paper suddenly became brighter, and rays of light followed the strange runes on the yellow paper, forming a tiny formation.
Xiao Chen put away his pen and quickly formed a hand seal with his hands. The light on the yellow paper was restrained. Following Xiao Chen's fingerprints, the paper folded quickly and automatically, and finally turned into a triangle that Xiao Chen held in his hand.
Xiao Chen breathed a sigh of relief. The talisman was finally completed in one go without any mistakes. Although this is just the most basic offensive talisman, Xiao Chen is very satisfied that it was successful in making it for the first time.
Phew!
Xiao Chen waved the talisman in his hand, and the triangular talisman quickly unfolded in the air, and then exploded with a jump, creating a palm-sized wave of flames.
The swallows flew happily in the air, as if they were frightened, they fell down with a plop and turned into a wooden sculpture again, with no aura on the spiritual tree.
Xiao Chen couldn't help but smile bitterly when he saw all this. Excellent materials and superb techniques, but because the level of the talisman seal was too low, it was so powerful that it was almost difficult to kill a mosquito.
What was even more speechless was that Yan Zi, who used objects as weapons, was easily destroyed by this negligible attack.
We have to continue working hard to develop more advanced talismans and more powerful wood carvings, Xiao Chen encouraged himself in his heart.
