Chapter 233 Beasts of Ancient Times
"In ancient times?" Lu Xun was slightly stunned.
He had played "Tianchen" for so long in his previous life that his understanding of the ancient times was relatively limited.
To be precise, the practitioners of Tianchen Continent also have limited knowledge of the ancient times.
There were very few practitioners in ancient times, not even as many as there are now.
It has been mentioned before that many years ago, only those with five or more ripples, that is, those with a comprehension level of 5 or above, were qualified to embark on the journey of cultivation.
Those with a comprehension level of 5 or above are considered little geniuses. For example, if some small sects can accept one more disciple with a comprehension level of 5 or above, the leader will be so happy that he can't close his legs.
In the past, the cultivation methods required very high qualifications from people. It was not until a great man was born that he modified the methods and created some basic ones, that they became what they are today.
This means that if Lu Xun was in ancient times, he would directly learn the nameless technique, instead of practicing the Food Breath Technique to lay the foundation and then practice the nameless technique.
At the beginning, Murong Yan and Lu Xun lamented that if it weren't for this great man, she, with her aptitude of three ripples, would not be able to step into the door of the world of cultivation.
In ancient times, the demon race was relatively powerful.
Compared to today, the status of the demon race in ancient times was higher.
Unlike now, many monsters practice hard, getting up early and staying up late to absorb the essence of the sun and the moon, and after some hard work, they finally become the mounts of the big guys.
However , with the passage of time and due to some special reasons that no one knows, the bloodlines of many ancient monsters have not been passed down.
Or even if it has been passed down, its bloodline is mixed and not pure enough.
This is also one of the reasons why the demon race is weaker than before.
As for why the bloodline is more complicated, emmm... I won’t describe it in detail here.
After all, humans have professions such as grass python heroes and undead knights, so it is just a common practice for monsters to have a close relationship with each other!
The master pointed at the green bead in Lu Xun's palm with his orchid finger and said, "I think this bead of yours should be a relic of a great saint of the ancient turtle clan."
"Great Sage?" Lu Xun was slightly stunned.
The gentleman explained: "In ancient times, great demons who reached the ninth level of cultivation were called demon clan great saints."
So that's how it is. Lu Xun nodded slightly.
The ninth realm, what kind of realm is that?
Now, if someone reaches the eighth realm, he can walk around the Tianchen Continent with his head held high and it’s okay for him to glare at others.
The gentleman continued, "But in ancient times, the turtle tribe was quite powerful, and there were many species. I don't know which species of turtle this bead came from."
As he spoke, the gentleman began to recall, and said, "It's definitely not the Black Turtle. The aura on this bead is not right."
The first thing the gentleman ruled out was the black tortoise.
Then he added: "It can't be a Ji Diao. I killed a Ji Diao in my early years."
Lu Xun: “…”
"It shouldn't be a Bixi either. I once raised one and it died, but I didn't see it drop any beads."
Lu Xun once again: "..."
The gentleman began to recall the glorious past.
He ruled out a part of them, which helped Lu Xun narrow down the scope, but he had no idea which kind of turtle it came from.
But this is not important for now. He is just using this bead as a wet nurse, so the unknown origin of the milk does not have much impact.
I just don’t know why this bead appeared in Shuiqian Temple?
It is obvious that even the old monk of Shuiqian Temple himself is not clear.
Lu Xun now understood why the scabbard could sense this thing and why it wanted to absorb the essence from it.
The scabbard is made of the shell of a black tortoise, and the bead also comes from the ancient great sage of the turtle clan. They are both turtles, so this is easy to understand.
Of course, it is not ruled out that it has a quirk of collecting beads.
Thinking back carefully, what it wanted to swallow so far were beads, and... each one was bigger than the last!
Lu Xun felt that he needed to find an opportunity to have a good chat with Jianshao.
If this continues, Lu Xun is afraid that its appetite will get bigger and bigger.
At worst, I can practice hard in the future, raise my level, and feed you some sword energy every day to satisfy you.
It’s not a big deal to swallow the pearls all the time!
Lu Xun put the green bead back into the scabbard. The moment he put it in, the black rope on the scabbard lifted instantly.
At this time, Lu Xun remembered that he still had a task to submit.
He opened the small bamboo basket he had carried back and took out the crow that was trapped inside.
The crow looked around stupidly. When it saw the gentleman, its head paused for a moment, and then it continued to look around.
Its mouth was still tied with a rope to prevent it from saying bad words.
"Sir, I was ordered to go to Wuji Mountain this time, but the head of Wuji Mountain, Feng Wuming, said that he didn't know what you wanted me to get, so he brought back this crow from Wuji Mountain."
Lu Xun spoke and threw half the pot to Feng Wuming.
The gentleman looked at Ling Ya for a moment, nodded slightly, and said, "I understand."
“Eh? Sir, why do you look like you don’t care at all about what I brought back?” Lu Xun thought to himself.
Could it be that he was simply making up a random excuse to make me travel all the way to the Far North?
That doesn't make sense!
"This crow will be kept on the mountain from now on , and you will be in charge of taking care of it." The master instructed Lu Xun.
Lu Xun touched the crow's head and said in his heart: "You, stupid crow, are lucky to have escaped death."
In fact, he had raised it for such a long time that he had developed some feelings for it. For a moment, he was reluctant to eat it and needed to find a suitable reason to convince himself.
On the contrary, Maonanbei, who had always wanted to taste the crow, felt a little disappointed, and his cat ears drooped slightly.
At this moment, a prompt message popped up in front of Lu Xun, indicating that the task had been completed.
In addition to the 300,000 experience points reward, this mission also has additional unknown rewards.
Lu Xun still had great expectations for the latter.
After he chose to receive the reward, 300,000 experience points were immediately credited to his account, and then a prompt message popped up.
"[Pet function is enabled.]"
"【You have obtained the pet: Raven.】"
“No… no more?” Lu Xun was slightly stunned.
Is this an extra reward?
Dog games, that's too much!
Looking at this pet function, Lu Xun secretly glanced at Maonanbei.
Then, he warned himself in his heart: "Lu Xun, stop! That's your senior sister!"
It wouldn't be a big deal to keep her as a pet on a normal day, but if she really became a pet, it would be a bit... too cool!
Of course, Lu Xun was just thinking about it casually.
…
…
At night, everyone in the back mountain went back to their houses to practice.
Today is a comfortable day for everyone in the back mountain, because our chef in the back mountain has returned and the dinner is particularly sumptuous.
After the meal, Lu Xun wanted to hint to his third senior brother that he had used up all his spirit stones again, but after thinking about it, he held back.
Anyway, he doesn't need spirit stones when he is in the Demon Sect, so he will give some hints to Third Senior Brother before going down the mountain next time.
In fact, when the players grow up and have the ability to earn spirit stones, Lu Xun will not need to bother his third senior brother.
Nowadays, the players are still at a relatively low level and cannot get many spirit stones. Lu Xun is too lazy to harvest them, thinking that he will take them all in one fell swoop after they have accumulated a certain amount of spirit stones.
Don't chase a desperate enemy. They are so poor, there is no need to chase them with a hoe. Lu Xun even finds it troublesome.
Make them rich first, and then let them spend their money happily.
The rich first lead the super rich!
At this moment, it is late at night and the moon is high in the sky.
The crows flew leisurely back and forth in the back mountain, never getting tired of it.
A figure suddenly appeared. Under the moonlight and in the dark night, the white robe was very conspicuous.
The gentleman looked up at Ling Ya, smiled, and said, "You know you're back?"
The crow standing on a rock nodded, then flapped its wings and flew up, landing on the gentleman's shoulder.
