Half a month passed by in a flash, and the day of the ten-year fight was getting closer and closer. Xiao Chen locked himself in the house. (Xue w.ou.m) studied talismans and the art of pointing objects into weapons. He stayed at home and lived an almost isolated life.
call!
Xiao Chen followed the method in the Encyclopedia of Cultivation and channeled spiritual energy into and out of the wood carving in his hand. With a flick of the brush, the wood carving turned into a woman emitting golden light in the air.
The woman held a golden spear in her hand and flicked it lightly in the air. A dragon energy gathered in the spear, and nine golden dragon shadows rose behind her. Waves of dragon power spread in all directions.
boom!
Before the smile on Xiao Chen's face dissipated, the woman suddenly broke into pieces and turned into a pile of sawdust in the air, slowly falling down.
Still not working, Xiao Chen sighed slightly in his heart. In the past half month, his achievements in talismans and seals were gratifying, but the magic of turning objects into weapons has never been officially successful.
It is no longer a problem for Xiao Chen to carve some small animals and make them temporarily real, but he has never really succeeded in making real combat weapons.
This woman was carved by him in the image of Yue Ying. Yue Ying was the strongest woman he had ever seen, and she had also captured a trace of the martial arts she had used, Xiao Chen's Origin of Fighting Saint Transformation Technique, which could successfully integrated into it.
But after half a month of hard work, Xiao Chen always felt that the most important charm was missing, so that the carved combat weapons would not exist for more than three seconds.
Is it possible to succeed only if you reach the level of a martial artist? Xiao Chen thought doubtfully in his heart. The one-meter-long spiritual wood on the table now only had half a meter left. Xiao Chen didn't have many chances left.
This kind of spiritual wood is difficult to find. Xiao Chen asked Bao'er to go to Linlang Pavilion to inquire. Even in Linlang Pavilion in Qizi County, it is difficult to receive a piece of spiritual wood in a year.
Those older spiritual trees are even harder to find. Even if there are spiritual trees, it won't be Xiao Chen's turn to buy them. Because this kind of spiritual wood is very popular, it will be snapped up by alchemists at a high price almost as soon as it is put on the shelves.
Although Xiao Chen was anxious, he was not too anxious. These things cannot be rushed. It’s about understanding and spirituality. The more anxious you are, the less likely you are to find that feeling.
Returning to the desk, Xiao Chen's somewhat depressed mood finally felt a little better. On the desk are all the various talismans and seals he has made these days.
There are many kinds of talismans and seals in the Encyclopedia of Cultivation, and there are many kinds of talismans and seals. The various kinds of talismans and seals are dazzling and dizzying. In order to facilitate sorting, Xiao Chen classified the talismans into three categories: attack, defense, and special.
Attack talismans mainly use auras with different attributes to carve patterns on the talisman paper. The more complex the talisman and the more attributes, the more powerful the attack.
The defensive talismans and the special talismans are basically the same as the attack talismans in theory, but they differ in specific applications.
Talisman seals are divided into nine grades from low to high. Xiao Chen's current strength can only draw second-grade talisman seals. He can carve third-grade talisman seals, but the failure rate is too high.
Xiao Chen tried it a few times and then gave it up. It consumed too much material and was not worth the loss.
"Second Young Master, the eldest elder asks you to go to the hall. He said that a distinguished guest is here." Bao'er's crisp voice sounded outside the door.
Xiao Chen opened the door and walked out, and asked with some confusion: "VIP? Bao'er, do you know what kind of VIP you are?"
Bao'er smiled mischievously and said, "She is a great beauty, so beautiful. The elder respects her very much. He seems to call her Miss Feng."
Miss Feng, Feng Feixue
Xiao Chen's eyes lit up and he said, "Is that woman wearing men's clothes?"
Bao'er said strangely: "Second Young Master, how do you know?"
"Master, can't I predict the future?" Xiao Chen smiled softly.
That's right, Xiao Chen thought in his mind, it must be Feng Feixue. It's really strange why she came to our Xiao family, and at this time.
The ten-year appointment was less than half a month away. Is it a coincidence that she came at this time
After passing through several gardens, Xiao Chen arrived at the lobby in a short time. What surprised Xiao Chen was that in addition to Xiao Qiang and Feng Feixue, Xiao Jian and Xiao Yulan were also here.
"Mr. Xiao, long time no see." Feng Feixue was dressed in men's clothing, with a heroic spirit in her beautiful eyebrows, and she was still as elegant as before.
Xiao Chen smiled faintly, "I really didn't expect to meet you here. Miss Feng is so powerful that she can see it everywhere."
The three people next to them were a little surprised when they saw that Xiao Chen knew Feng Feixue. Xiao Qiang asked: "Xiao Chen, have you known Miss Feng before?"
Xiao Yulan and Xiao Jian were also curious about Xiao Qiang's question, waiting for Xiao Chen's answer.
Xiao Chen found a chair, sat next to Xiao Yulan, and said, "I don't think we know each other. I've met him a few times, and I asked the elder to introduce him."
Xiao Qiang heard this and said with a smile: "This is Miss Feng Feixue. The chamber of commerce opened by her family is the largest chamber of commerce in the Great Qin Empire. Its business covers the entire continent. It can be ranked high even in the Great Jin Dynasty."
"His ancestors have some connection with our Xiao family." When Xiao Qiang said this, there was an imperceptible sadness in the depths of his eyes.
Feng Feixue keenly caught the hint of sadness in Xiao Qiang's eyes, and smiled calmly, looking calm and calm, "Uncle Xiao has promoted me, but he is just a businessman."
Although she spoke so modestly, it was equivalent to accepting Xiao Qiang's words in disguise. Xiao Chen and the other three were shocked. Tianwu Continent was so big. Her family could spread its business all over the continent. Its strength was really something that no one dared to underestimate. peep.
But how could such a powerful force have a connection with the ancestors of the Xiao family? Even if there was a connection with the ancestors, there is no need to visit the Xiao family now.
Xiao Qiang looked at the three of them and said: "Since the three of you are here, I will tell you the intention of Miss Feng's visit. After this ten-year appointment. No matter what the result is, Miss Feng will find a way to recommend you three." Qin Tian Academy.”
When Qin Tian Academy and Xiao Chen heard these four words, huge waves surged in their hearts, and they could not calm down for a long time.
Qin Tian Academy, one of the five universities in Tianwu Continent, is located in the imperial capital of Qin. Its existence is even earlier than the Great Qin Empire.
According to legend, Ying Zheng, the founding emperor of the Great Qin Kingdom, studied at Qintian Academy when he was a boy. After the empire was established, he immediately regarded Qintian Academy as the home of Chinese studies.
In addition to the three orthodox holy places on the Tianwu Continent, which are older than the Tianwu Dynasty, there are also some existences that are comparable to holy places.
These forces have been inherited from the Tianwu Dynasty to this day, and are not much different from the Holy Land in the minds of the world. For example, the three major sects in the Qin Empire, Jianlan Sect, Tiandao Pavilion, and Yehun Palace, are such forces.
However, Qintian Academy exists between the two. It is higher than those pseudo holy places and lower than the three orthodox holy places. There is one biggest difference between it and the sect. The academy does not intervene in the battles of any forces. It is just a A simple school.
Even when there were several civil strife in the imperial family, the most powerful seniors in the academy did not intervene.
Xiao Jian suppressed the excitement in his heart and asked: "With our qualifications, can we really join Qintian Academy?"
Feng Feixue smiled faintly and said: "You don't have to worry about this. The entrance examination of the school is not just about the realm. The most important thing is actual combat. Moreover, even with the realm of cultivation, the qualifications of the three of them in the empire are definitely not bad."
"The most important thing is that some big families have sponsorship quotas in their hands, so you don't have to worry at all."
Xiao Jian was not stupid. He quickly understood the meaning of her words and asked directly: "These places should be very precious. If you give them to us, do you have any requirements? I don't believe you will be so Kindhearted?"
Feng Feixue chuckled softly when she heard this and said, "Young master is so direct. I really don't have any requirements. If you don't believe me, you can ask Uncle Xiao."
The three of them turned their attention to Xiao Qiang to see how he would answer. There was no request, which was really unbelievable.
Xiao Qiang nodded and said: "Don't have any worries. If you want to go, just tell me. If you don't want to go, Miss Feng won't force us to go."
"Xiao Jian, thank you Miss Feng for your kindness. I really want to go. What I said before has offended me a lot."
"I want to know how big this day is and how many talented people there are on this earth. If I stay in Mohe City for the rest of my life, I will definitely regret it." Xiao Jian said sincerely with a trace of heroism in his words.
Xiao Yulan looked at Xiao Chen, her eyes flashing with hope, and said: "Cousin Xiao Chen, are you going?"
"We'll talk about it after my father comes out of seclusion." Xiao Chen said with some evasion.
Although Xiao Chen longed for Qintian Academy, he was not as eager as Xiao Jian. How big is this world? How many talented people are there? Can Qintian Academy really find the answer
A leaf can't see Mount Tai, and the sky you see may be just a leaf in the eyes of others.
Xiao Chen had already made up his mind that he would definitely leave the Xiao family after the ten-year agreement, but he had not decided where he would go. But after what happened to Aojiao, Yueyingdao never screamed for him. What he wanted to go to most was Tiandao Pavilion.
Thinking of Naojiao, Xiao Chen felt melancholy in his heart for a while, and it came again, which made people feel disappointed.
When Xiao Jian heard Xiao Chen's words, his heart condensed, and he couldn't help but look at the great elder. Xiao Qiang smiled lightly and said: "It doesn't matter, after the master of the house comes out of seclusion, he will respect your choice and will never stop it. "
Xiao Yulan heard the meaning of Xiao Chen's words and didn't have much intention. She couldn't help but feel a little disappointed and said sadly: "Miss Feng, can I think about it for a while?"
Looking at Xiao Yulan's expression, a strange light flashed in Feng Feixue's eyes, but it passed away briefly and she said with a smile: "I won't leave for a month, you can think about it carefully."
She turned her gaze to Xiao Chen and said, "Mr. Xiao, can you take a moment to speak."
Xiao Chen looked at the great elder, saw him nodding, and said, "No problem."
The two walked out of the hall, Xiao Yulan led the way, and stopped in a secluded garden. Turning around, a pair of spiritual eyes stared at Xiao Chen.
Xiao Chen said a little unnaturally: "I don't know what Miss Feng wants me to do."
Phew!
Feng Feixue did not answer his words, but suddenly a folding fan appeared in her hand, pointing directly at Xiao Chen's face. The folding fan was emitting fiery red light, and when it was about to approach Xiao Chen, it unfolded in a flash.
A fiery red lotus rose into the sky, alluring and charming.
