Chapter 102: How to clear the game for players who spend money (Part 1)
"Liu Hui, are you busy? Come over here for a moment."
At midnight, the entire Liu residence was silent. Liu Hui, a female wolf demon who was shrouded in moonlight and breathing in the spiritual energy of the moon, was suddenly awakened by a voice in her head.
She pulled her long hood, looked around, and without refutation, she stood up, controlled the spiritual energy, turned into a gust of wind, and disappeared into the garden.
After a few breaths, she pushed open the door of Liu's study and stepped in. She saw Jiang Xia sitting behind the desk, frowning, looking at the book in his hand.
"What's wrong?"
The wolf demon asked rudely, seeming angry at Jiang Xia for interrupting her practice.
"Come and help me take a look."
Jiang Xia was not polite, he waved at the wolf demon and said irritably:
"I can sense spiritual energy, but I can't push it around my body. It seems to have its own temper. No matter how hard I try, I can't push it away."
"Haha, you are a mortal, you are so ambitious."
The wolf demon took a few steps forward and said sarcastically:
“I have also seen beginners practicing in the Myriad Beasts Sect. They can sense spiritual energy very quickly, but if they want to push the spiritual energy to cleanse their essence and marrow, it will take some time, right?
You have just started practicing, and you want to control spiritual energy overnight. How can it be that easy?"
"Um?"
Jiang Xia raised his head and glanced at the female wolf demon with an eye patch, and said:
"You should call me boss. The contract has been signed. How can a subordinate talk to his superior like this? Didn't that damn elder of the Ten Thousand Beast Sect teach you the rules?"
"you……"
Liu Hui was speechless after being criticized.
After all, she is just a simple monster. When it comes to oral skills, how can she be a match for the bad guy Lao Jiang?
"Humph, I signed a contract with you and I work for you to pay off your debts, but don't think that you can bully me just because I have a good temper. After all, I am still a demon general."
The wolf demon put his hands on his waist and said unconvincedly:
"If you push me into a corner, I can kill you with one claw."
"No, no, no."
Jiang Xia shook his finger and said seriously:
“You just look like a monster.
Liu Hui, you grew up in a human sect and were trained by monks. You have a monster body, but your soul was completely cultivated according to the human system.
So, don't pretend to me that you are an unruly, evil monster who eats people without leaving any bones. You are a little girl who makes you sick even if you eat Liu Bao. Maybe you are older than me.
But the rice you eat does not contain as much salt as I do.
Let’s not talk about this anymore. I don’t mean to disturb your practice.
This problem is indeed difficult to solve. After all, I am a layman in spiritual practice. You are the only one among us who has spiritual practice experience."
"Isn't there still that human cultivator? The fat one."
Seeing Jiang Xia praising her, Liu Hui snorted proudly and said:
"You don't trust him? Even though he looks like a bad practitioner, he treats you very well."
“This is not a question of trust or distrust.”
Jiang Xia flicked the book in his hand with a sigh and said:
"There are some things that I can't show him, at least not now. Okay, enough of the nonsense. Tell me first, how should I regulate the spiritual energy in my body?
I just took some medicine and I felt a warm current rushing through my body.
It’s very hard now.”
The wolf demon immediately turned his head to look at the table, picked up the opened porcelain bottle, sniffed it under his nose, and an indescribable expression appeared on the werewolf's face.
The look she gave Jiang Xia also became strange.
It's like looking at a complete prodigal son.
“This is a top-quality Soul Gathering Pill. Not only is it powerful, it also contains spiritual energy. It is obviously the work of a master. In the Myriad Beast Sect, such pills are only distributed regularly to promising disciples.
And only those who have already manipulated spiritual energy are qualified to use it.
You are so good, you have just started practicing, but you use such a good pill. You can't control the enhanced spiritual energy, and it will be wasted when the effect of the medicine wears off. "
Liu Hui said in a complicated tone:
“When I was a kid, I used the dregs left over from the elders’ alchemy to absorb spiritual energy. Even if they were dregs, not every war beast could get them.
You... Boss, you are such a loser."
"Ha, you want it too, right? If you want it, just say it, why are you beating around the bush?"
Jiang Xia looked under Liu Hui's hood and saw the changing expression on the werewolf's face. He opened the drawer, took out the three bottles of pills that Ma Tishu had given him, and threw them into Liu Hui's arms.
explain:
"It's yours, take it and use it. Don't be polite. Your quick recovery of strength will also benefit me, so don't save it. Come back to me when you're done.
Just think of it as your employee benefit.
Now stop scolding me and tell me, how do you control this disobedient spirit energy? "
Liu Hui looked at the three bottles of pills in her claws. She picked up one, put it in front of her nose and smelled it. The effect of this Spirit Gathering Pill was not as good as the one in Jiang Xia's hand.
But it is also considered mid-range.
When she was caught by that group of thieves and put on sale in the black market of cultivators, she also saw those independent cultivators buying this kind of elixir in the black market. A bottle of this could be sold for ten immortal coins of ten-degree spiritual energy.
Not only can it enhance the spiritual perception of mortals, it is also extremely useful for cultivators in the realm of truth. When the spiritual power is exhausted after a battle, having a bottle of such a Spirit Gathering Pill can save lives at the critical moment.
Jiang Xia might not know the value of this thing, but he just casually threw three bottles to me, and I have known him for less than a day.
This person...
Do you trust yourself so much?
Just because of signing that ridiculous contract?
"Employee Benefits……"
Liu Hui muttered this new word in her mind, but her hands and feet were very quick. She put the three bottles of Soul Gathering Pills into her arms, and then said to Jiang Xia in the hoarse voice unique to werewolves:
“When mortals manipulate spiritual energy to cleanse their marrow, they have to rely on time to endure. First, they need to sense the spiritual energy, then guide the spiritual energy into their bodies, and slowly adapt to it.
After the body has completely adapted to the flow of spiritual energy, follow the master's instructions and guide the spiritual energy through every meridian in the body.
Generally speaking, this process takes three to four months, or a hundred days. Human cultivators have a saying called "a hundred days of foundation building."
This means that you can’t rush the process of completing the first spiritual energy circulation, you have to take your time.”
"I don't have that much time."
Jiang Xia shook his head and said:
“Is there a quick way?”
"have!"
Liu Hui nodded. She pulled her hood up to her shoulders, revealing her furry head and two ears that stood up, moving like a puppy.
she says:
“I’ve seen it in the Ten Thousand Beast Sect.
Some cultivators accept disciples with very poor qualifications, and they have not been able to complete the marrow cleansing with spiritual energy for many years. If the mundane marrow is not cleansed by the spiritual energy, it will be difficult for the body to carry enough spiritual energy.
Without sufficient spiritual energy, there is no way to open the sea of consciousness and enter the Qi training realm.
Therefore, they would use a very rough method, which is that the master would inject the spiritual energy into the disciple's body, and rely on the master's delicate manipulation of the spiritual energy to force the spiritual energy to flow through the disciple's body.
This completes the process of marrow cleansing.
However, this method is rarely used, because this process is initiated by the master, which is equivalent to the master dividing a part of his own spiritual energy for the disciple to use.
Moreover, it consumes a lot of energy. This method of sacrificing oneself to benefit others is not used by ordinary monks. "
"How long will this take? Are there any aftereffects?"
Jiang Xia thought for a moment and asked.
Liu Hui shook her ears and tail and said:
"There are no after-effects. After all, it's just a marrow cleansing. As for the duration, it will probably only take a day or two.
If Master is willing to speed up, it may only take half a day, but that also means that more spiritual energy will be consumed, and it will take longer to recover."
"good!"
Jiang Xia smiled, and under Liu Hui's surprised gaze, he stood up, took a quarter of the bottles and jars left by Wang Liufu on the table, handed them to Liu Hui, and said:
"This is your reward. Come on, help me wash my marrow."
"this……"
Liu Hui widened her eyes again. She looked at the top-grade Soul Gathering Pill that was pushed in front of her and said in a bewildered manner:
"I……"
"Ah? Not enough?"
Jiang Xia curled his lips, took two more bottles, placed them in front of Liu Hui, and said:
"Is that enough?"
The latter waved his hands hastily, and said somewhat at a loss:
"It's not a question of whether it's enough, it's a question of..."
"Snapped"
Two more bottles were placed in front of her.
Jiang Xia tilted his head and said with a hint of dissatisfaction:
“Don’t be too greedy.
I will keep some for myself. This is the final price. This should be enough for you to make up for your losses after you cleanse my marrow, right?"
"It's definitely enough, and there's more."
The silly monster wagged his tail and said honestly:
"I am a demon general, which is equivalent to the cultivators of the True Realm of your race. The bodies of demons are naturally strong, and the spiritual energy in my body is also greater than that of your human cultivators.
Although I am weak now, it is definitely enough to help you cleanse your marrow.
However, I have never heard of any human cultivator asking a monster to cleanse his marrow. Moreover, I am a monster, and the spiritual energy in my body is not pure. It is mixed with unrefined demonic energy.
Although it won't affect your physique, it is much more violent than ordinary spiritual energy. If it cleanses your marrow like this, you will suffer more pain."
"I don't have that much time to do the Hundred Days Foundation Building. Time is money, and money is very precious, little girl."
Jiang Xia reached out and unbuttoned his shirt, and said to Liu Hui:
"Come on , let's get it done tonight."
"you sure?"
Liu Hui quickly put the Soul Gathering Pill in front of her into her arms. She blinked her only remaining eye, wagged her tail, and said to Jiang Xia:
“It will be painful if you do it so roughly for the first time.
Besides, do you really trust me that much?
I am a monster!
When I am washing your marrow, if I give you the wrong guidance or use a little more force, you will become a disabled person.
Aren’t you afraid?”
"No."
Jiang Xia took off his shirt, lay down on the bed in the inner room, hooked his finger at Liu Hui, and said:
"You have also seen people in the wasteland. I am paralyzed all over, and I just happened to have replaced all of my parts with prosthetics. As for the pain... why should a grown man be afraid of pain?
Come here, little girl, hurry up."
Seeing that Jiang Xia had made up his mind, Liu Hui could only move forward with her tail wagging.
It half-knelt in front of Jiang Xia's bed, looking at its boss.
explain:
"Let me make it clear in advance. This is also my first time doing this, and I don't know the technique you're practicing. You have to tell me how that technique moves the spiritual energy through the meridians.
Your human race's skills are good in every way, except for this one thing that is very troublesome and too complicated."
"The Qigong chart is on the table, go get it yourself."
Jiang Xia closed his eyes and took a deep breath, as if he had made all the necessary preparations.
After a few breaths, when Liu Hui's furry paws rested on Jiang Xia's arm, Old Jiang took out another pill and threw it into his mouth like a candy bean. While chewing, he said:
"Also, Liu Hui, there is something I didn't tell you."
"There's a cute little thing in your brain... I asked Roger, who performed the surgery on you, to put it in there. It won't kill you, but it will make you lose your ability to resist.
Su and Lao Si are coming over here now, carrying weapons that can kill you who have no ability to resist."
The wolf demon's expression changed.
The next moment, she saw Jiang Xia open his eyes and winked at her as if jokingly.
Lao Jiang said softly:
"That's just a necessary measure to maintain the 'trust' between us. You are my employee, I won't harm you. I believe in a good monster like you, and I won't harm your generous boss."
"But let me make it clear in advance, if I get hurt, you die..."
"So don't be stressed, don't show that angry face, little girl, relax, just do what the book says, come on, I don't want to wait any longer."
