Time flies.
Half a month has passed since Kaxiu came to the time-travel era. With the help of healing potions, his injuries have mostly healed.
I have to say that.
The healing medicine created by Levi was very effective, and some of the medicinal materials were not difficult to obtain. Kaxiu had learned something good, and he could use it in any future retrospective era. Retrospective ability was not only used to bring the strength gained in the retrospective era back to reality.
After several flashbacks, Kaxiu.
In fact, I have already realized something.
What a person can gain is not only power, but also knowledge and experience, which are things as valuable as power.
Even beyond knowledge and experience, there is ability.
This ability is not that ability, and has nothing to do with supernatural powers. It is just a person's way of dealing with people and things after training, dealing with an event or wanting to achieve a certain goal.
In addition, experience is equally important to a person.
Firm belief and unyielding will are more meaningful than so-called talent. In the first two times of retrospection, Levi was a coward in Kaxiu's eyes, until the third time.
Although Kaxiu knew that Levi ultimately failed to achieve his goal, he was obviously different from before.
If the battle to annihilate the family was a sign of despair, and Levi's encounter with the dead blood that occupied teacher Lisha's body ignited his anger, then the subsequent ten years of wandering and searching were a continuous burning.
He, Levi, is no longer the ordinary stick at the beginning, but a burning flame. Maybe he will turn into ashes in the end, but the light and heat he emits during the burning process are far more meaningful than living in humiliation. There is no doubt that Levi, who is so weak, has a firm belief and an unyielding will.
It didn't exist before, but it exists now.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have been able to survive the terrible side effects.
That’s a triple whammy of physical and mental potential.
Levi had endured for several years, more than a thousand days. The obsession that supported him to move forward was already known to Kaxiu when he first arrived.
In the cabin, sunlight shines in through the window.
Kaxiu pulled the bandages apart, revealing an extremely ugly scar on his abdomen. It was left after the penetrating wound healed, and the surrounding skin was twisted and wrinkled like a black centipede.
He took a deep breath, sensing the changes in his body.
Levi's body had mostly recovered, and his boxer-level physique had gotten rid of his weak state. But for Kaxiu, it was still nothing to see, because Levi's physical danger was not just that he was seriously injured by the wizard.
There are a total of five alien auras flowing in the body.
Two of them were weakened.
All the damage is caused by external factors.
The wizard's fiery aura had been dissipated by about one third due to the recovery of his wounds, and the remaining two thirds would need to be removed slowly. As for the cold aura caused by the dark creatures, only a little bit was left, and it would probably be removed in a few days.
An hour later.
Inside the courtyard surrounded by wooden fence.
As always, the dark yellow wooden barrel is placed on one side.
Hot water was poured into it continuously.
Finally, a fist-sized medicine bag was thrown in.
In a flash, the originally clear hot water turned black and sticky like mud. At the same time, the bucket also emitted an extremely pungent smell of mud.
This is not a healing potion, but a training potion.
Used to improve the secret technique of Xiangpo and strengthen the physical body.
Two minutes later, Kaxiu was completely immersed in it.
The same irritating feeling as before came from all directions, as if thousands of insects and ants were biting my skin.
He was already familiar with this, and his body instantly assumed a special posture of the Xiangpo Secret Technique. He sat with his right ankle resting on his left knee, and his left ankle resting on his right knee. His hands were extended forward in a hugging ball-holding posture.
The waist did not collapse, but stood straight.
Soon, Kaxiu got into the state.
While the skin surface was in pain, hot air was flowing in, flowing through the muscles. Everything was normal. But he soon realized that something was wrong. The power of the training potion was not only absorbed by his body.
There were also other things that were extracted after the drug power was converted, a total of four, respectively at the heart, back, left hand fingers, and right arm.
The first three are self-explanatory, namely the demon bug, the firebird totem, and the battle ring. And the last one is...
Kaxiu raised his right hand and turned his wrist upward.
A black blood vessel came into view.
Originally, the blood vessel started at the wrist and was about half the length of the forearm. But now, it has unknowingly extended to the elbow, just a little distance away.
Kaxiu tried to focus on his right hand.
Suddenly, a strong pulse was heard.
He seemed to feel an unknown power contained in his forearm.
Kaxiu seemed to be able to control it, but it was blurry, as if through a layer of glass. So he continued to calm down.
Keep trying to communicate.
Until a certain moment.
His right arm suddenly tensed up, and his hand clenched into a fist. A small snake-like black blood vessel protruded upward, extremely conspicuous under the skin, and was one or two centimeters higher than the surrounding muscles.
Even more, with this blood vessel as the center, black flocs like roots spread out and spread to the muscles on both sides.
"This is… "
Kaxiu's eyes became very solemn.
He could feel a force that was vaguely under his control spreading out, like a ball of liquid trying to wrap up his entire arm. But this was not a good thing.
As the cold power spread, Kaxiu's control over it became weaker and weaker, and there was a risk of losing control if it continued.
He loosened his right hand and the black color returned.
Become a gently beating blood vessel.
"It's a very strange thing... There is a very dangerous aura hidden deep inside." Kaxiu lowered his head: "But why does the inner vision effect of Miwu's control over the body suggest that it is a part of my body, no different from other parts. This black blood vessel is not harmful to me?"
He thought for a while and finally shook his head.
Kaxiu gradually shifted his attention to cultivation.
The effect is terrible, not just terrible.
The specific reasons are nothing more than the same few.
All in all, if Kaxiu used the training potion normally and step by step, he could only ensure that this body would not regress.
Yes, even the slightest progress is extremely difficult.
He was already over thirty years old, with average aptitude, his life potential had been consumed excessively, and his body was ravaged by hidden injuries of varying sizes.
Even understanding is hampered by an unstable mental state.
It was a miracle that Levi could reach the second stage of blood acceleration under such circumstances. However, this posed a problem to Kaxiu. What if the training was useless
He couldn't help but look at his wrist again.
Can this thing be used as my own strength...
Five minutes later.
Kaxiu was naked from the waist up, practicing the Wind Elephant Fist in the courtyard. He was adapting to this body and getting used to it.
Coming from the real world to the retrospective era, it is not so easy to display one's own wind fist realm. Kaxiu started from the opening posture of wind fighting as always, slowly honing in on the swinging punch, straight punch, jab, and swinging punch.
There were bursts of fist sounds in the courtyard and the sound of wind and waves blowing continuously.
Later, he not only trained his boxing skills, but also all the fighting skills of his whole body. In the end, Kaxiu even used all four killer moves of the Wind Elephant Fist, and he felt that he was gradually returning to his senses.
A few hours later.
He ended with a standard standing punch.
In the sunlight, the somewhat emaciated body was engorged with blood, and sweat shone brightly between the grooves. Kaxiu glanced at the door of the wooden house, and then walked directly towards the river.
He rinsed his body with the cold river water.
Then he began to wander in the woods.
I was lucky today. Not only did I find some delicious non-toxic mushrooms, I also caught a fat pheasant.
Kaxiu, whose injuries had basically recovered, naturally could not let the two children continue to work. Of course, part of the reason was that Thomas's cooking was not very tasty. Kaxiu had entered the retrospective era so many times, especially during the last retrospective. As a dusk hunter, he traveled around hunting dark creatures, and sometimes he had to go out in the wilderness, so he learned some outdoor cooking skills.
Especially the barbecue, the taste is quite good.
That evening.
The bonfire flickered, and the red flames licked the pheasant's plump body. The muscle texture gradually turned yellow, and a drop of fat gathered together and dripped into the bonfire with a puff. As the stick rotated, the tempting aroma of fat gradually spread around.
Next to it, bubbles were gurgling in the iron bucket.
The mushroom soup was boiling, with chopped mushrooms on the surface and some wild vegetables as simple decoration.
Kaxiu picked up the stick and reached out to tear off a piece of meat from it. He took a bite and it tasted pretty good.
Just a little kosher salt, no other seasoning.
He glanced at the side, where Thomas and Shara were holding a wooden bowl, waiting eagerly. Kaxiu turned his head.
"You can start eating now. Go get yourself some mushroom soup."
Five minutes later.
Thomas put down an empty bowl and gnawed on a chicken leg with his mouth full of grease. While eating, he looked up at Kasu.
"Uncle, your barbecue is so delicious?"
"It's normal to have some life skills when wandering around. If I didn't know how to cook, I would have starved to death in the wilderness." Kaxiu took a sip of mushroom soup: "Go to bed early after dinner..."
Thomas nodded and continued to work on the chicken legs.
Another two days passed.
Kaxiu's injuries have completely recovered, and he began to study the black blood vessels on his wrist. This thing is quite mysterious. At first, Kaxiu thought that the black blood vessels needed something like converted medicine to provide energy for growth and change.
But after that absorption, the black blood vessels no longer absorbed the drug. And it was obvious that there was basically no sign of further extension, and it remained in its original state.
The black is not spreading as fast as it did at the beginning.
Kaxiu doesn't know the principle yet.
Just a simple test of the power of the black blood vessels.
In the normal state, the power is about one level greater than before. In the explosive state, that is, the blood vessels bulge and the black color extends to the surrounding area, the power is about half as strong.
And the most crucial point is.
There are no side effects to the black blood vessel outbreak.
At least Kaxiu has tried to explode dozens of times and nothing unexpected has happened. It's just fatigue from excessive muscle tension.
Compared with the other three forbidden techniques, it is completely different.
"Huh..."
In the afternoon, after practicing boxing in the courtyard, Kaxiu left the cabin as usual to wash his body and look for prey. Today, he found traces of human activities. Just across the river, about a few kilometers away.
The cabin built by Levi is deep in the mountains and forests.
It was a place that ordinary villagers couldn't enter, and even hunters wouldn't come in. And there were traces of humans here, so there was a high probability that the enemy had come to visit. Levi had too many enemies, and Kaxiu couldn't be sure who they were. The most likely possibility was still the two wizards, but of course it could also be someone else.
On the night when they discovered the human traces, Kaxiu and his two children had a meal and left immediately.
Walking in the forest at night might be a little dangerous, but with Kaxiu leading the way, poisonous snakes and ferocious beasts would not be a problem.
The next morning.
It was still light outside, and white mist was floating in the forest.
In front of the cabin.
Two figures in strange attire slowly approached.
"It's too late. The person is gone..."
"Haha, no matter where he runs to, the totem will help us guide him. It's just a matter of time..."
"Maybe we should get some help."
"You mean those stinking rats in the sewers..."
***************************
June 5, 110th year of the Red Lebanese Federation calendar.
More than ten days had passed since Kaxiu left the cabin. On this day, he brought Thomas and Shara to Beiliu City, the capital of Beiliu County. Kaxiu had been here once more than ten years ago, and now Beiliu City is undoubtedly more prosperous.
High-rise buildings rose from the ground, their brown glass reflecting the sunlight. Posters and banners of some products were posted on the walls, and sometimes the popular opera stars were posing seductively.
The huge chimney pierces the sky and almost disappears into the clouds.
On a street in the city, a mansion not far from here seemed to be holding a social dance for the upper class. From time to time, people in bright and beautiful clothes could be seen walking on the avenue.
Some women have fashionable hairstyles and wear bright red evening gowns like roses, which outline their tight and curvaceous figures.
The dancer next to me held hands.
He was also a handsome man in a suit, wearing a pair of white gloves and holding a cane in his free hand.
On the sidewalk.
A man in a black windbreaker was holding a yellow paper bag for food in his hand, with his hat buttoned down, and was walking forward in silence.
His temperament is somewhat out of tune with the surroundings.
Several dozen meters behind is at the corner of an alley.
There is also a man in a suit holding a cane.
He placed the end of his staff on the ground, and from time to time his eyes would pass through the crowd and obstacles and glance at the back of the man in the windbreaker who was walking forward.
Whenever the man in the windbreaker is about to walk out of sight.
The men in suits would take a step forward and follow.
Five minutes later, the two gradually arrived at the residential area.
There are far fewer cars and pedestrians on the road.
The man in the suit looked up at the man in the windbreaker who disappeared around the corner and quickly chased after him. But when he turned the corner, he found that there was no one on the road ahead, just an empty space.
"Damn it, I lost him!"
He was feeling a little depressed, and suddenly he saw a dark shadow flash by on the right side from the corner of his eye, as if something was approaching rapidly.
The man in the suit widened his eyes and was about to pull out a pistol from his arms.
"We are one family, don't be nervous."
A calm voice came.
He was stunned for a moment subconsciously, and then his head hurt.
Everything in front of my eyes turned black in an instant.
