Chapter 144: Enlightenment; Threat of Parent Tide
Chapter 144: Enlightenment; Threat of Parent Tide
While Xi Sui'an was reflecting on his experience of fleeing after being beaten and resisting unyieldingly, Jing Ci had already slowly walked out of the City of No Return.
"Why don't we meet anywhere else? Let's meet at the gate of the City of No Return. Why do you humans always learn bad things from the aliens?"
Why do both of them love to meet in these dangerous places?
In the woods some distance away from the City of No Return, a burly fat man saw Jing Ci appear and immediately raised his head to condemn this behavior.
The fat uncle took off his hood, revealing a round face that looked very friendly. It was the Liberty's first mate, the psychic golden carp Jin Yuan.
Jing Ci shrugged: "I'm going back to the human world soon, otherwise it will be bad if Zhao Tianya comes to arrest me."
Jin Yuan glanced in the direction of the City of No Return and sighed deeply.
"Tell me, what do you want?" He looked at Jing Ci and talked business.
"Who did Mu Qianji turn to?" Jing Ci's expression was slightly cold.
"Well, it's not easy to get the news. I'm afraid the captain will have to pay for it, and you may not be able to afford the price." Jin Yuan raised his eyebrows and spread his hands.
Jing Ci touched his collar and waist, and finally pulled out a piece of golden metal and threw it to him: "This."
Jin Yuan held the gold piece and examined it for a moment, his expression suddenly changed: "Yinglong dragon scale?!"
The Yinglong dragon scales, which are rare in the two realms, are ranked among the top alchemical materials.
This doesn't look like a personal commission...
Jin Yuan narrowed his eyes, was silent for a few seconds, and finally grabbed it: "Okay, let's do this!"
Jing Ci smiled with satisfaction: "I believe you are real boundary merchants. I hope I can get good news from you in the human world."
“……” Jin Yuan rolled his eyes silently.
When there is something going on, he is called a boundary merchant. When there is nothing going on, he is called a smuggler between the two worlds, haha.
He waved his hand with a fake smile: "Goodbye."
Jing Ci straightened his clothes and left with brisk steps: "Okay, the third task is completed, and today's business volume has reached the target!"
Jin Yuan watched the other party disappear, touched his chin, and a smile appeared in his eyes. The captain had accepted Li Qing's commission before, and now he accepted another commission that was likely to come along, so he made a profit.
Jin Yuan happily put the Yinglong dragon scale away and walked in another direction whistling.
Underground fighting arena.
"boom!!!"
Xi Sui'an was knocked to the ground by Yan Wujiu. Without time to think, she suddenly turned over and dodged the sharp long spear that followed.
The dark halberd pierced through the ground and a spider web spread out.
"Well, it was an accidental injury." "Yan Wujiu" looked at the pattern on the ground that was shattered by the halberd with regret, but his expression did not show much concern.
Xi Sui'an's left eye was filled with despair, and he smiled fiercely: "Chief Yan, I'm going to kill you for the second time!"
The Eye of Petrification was activated instantly, and taking advantage of the moment when "Yan Wujiu" was delayed and petrified, she rushed forward and shot out the Scorching Sun Bullet instantly!
That "Yan Wujiu" was instantly blown into flying lime-gray powder.
Xi Sui'an lowered his eyes, and the next second he turned around and stabbed the Yanling knife behind him. The sharp tip of the knife pierced "Yan Wujiu" who was preparing for a sneak attack from behind without hesitation!
Xi Sui'an turned around, covered his aching chest, and watched "Yan Wujiu" fall down and disappear in front of him, frowning tightly.
The Petrifying Eye is effective against them, which means that these are not illusions, but more like clones, possessing a trace of the original body's spiritual consciousness. How did Yan Wujiu do it?
Before she had time to think about it, the fourth "Yan Wujiu" had already arrived in front of her and slapped her hard!
"Click."
Xi Sui'an was knocked flying. He managed to straighten his body in mid-air and stepped on a stone pillar to gain leverage to land on the ground. Then he couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood!
Two ribs were broken.
Xi Sui'an wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and said secretly.
At this moment, his heart was beating violently, and his body was repeatedly repairing and being injured. Xi Sui'an took a breath and said weakly, "How did you do it?"
Not counting the original body, there are five clones, whose realms can be controlled at different levels of strength: 2, 3, 4, 5.
Yan Wujiu, who was watching from the sidelines, smiled and said, "Are you curious? Are you jealous? Do you want to learn?"
Xi Sui'an twitched his lips: "...I want to learn."
"This move is the racial talent of Xiezhi, you can't learn it." Yan Wujiu said slowly.
After all, there are essential differences between alien races and humans in terms of soul and consciousness.
"..." She believed that if Yan Wujiu was not strong enough, he would have been beaten to death long ago.
"But I can teach you another trick."
The original body and the other two "Yan Wujiu" surrounded her.
"This move is called Shadow Splitting, and it's a move I created." Yan Wujiu picked up his halberd and slowly walked over.
"Using the origin of chaos to construct a spirit body, and using mental power to control the spirit body, this requires you to do two or more things at once.
"While fighting with 'me', you were also thinking about how to deal with the other 'me'. Now it seems that you are doing well. You deserve 90 points out of a full 100."
She watched in silence as the encirclement named "Yan Wujiu" trapped her, and the three Yan Wujiu smiled at her.
Xi Sui'an was half-kneeling, with the tip of the knife against the ground to support his body. Hearing this, he slowly raised his head, and his gray eyes were wavering.
His eyes met Yan Wujiu's real body's eyes: "But, what I want is 100 points."
"Hmm?" Yan Wujiu was stunned for a moment, and was somewhat surprised to find a wisp of gray spreading from his fingertips, climbing up from his wrist, and in an instant he was deprived of control of his body.
He tried to mobilize the power of origin, but at this moment even his thinking seemed to become sluggish, and his thoughts seemed to be frozen for a moment.
Xi Sui'an stared at Yan Wujiu's real body, holding a knife across his body.
A trickle of blood flowed from his left eye socket, and a drop of blood slid down his chin, creating a small blood flower on the ground.
Yan Wujiu moved his eyes.
Xi Sui'an placed the knife across his neck without changing his expression. The murderous aura generated by the trial of the prisoners during this period of time was emanating from him, and it was extremely fierce.
The other two "Yan Wujiu" looked at Xi Sui'an with great surprise. When they saw that their real bodies were held at knifepoint by Xi Sui'an, they actually clapped their hands in approval.
Even though his realm was lowered, Yan Wujiu was still a little surprised that he was controlled by her petrifying eyes.
Xi Sui'an endured the extremely intense pain. All of his original strength was almost completely drained away by the Petrified Eye. Even if his soul strength could hold on, his body had reached its limit at this moment.
She thought for a moment and said, "Give me 100 points? If you give me one, put down the knife."
She put the knife against Yan Wujiu's neck again.
Six seconds, seven seconds... She counted silently.
Yan Wujiu: ...He is having some difficulty speaking now.
After a few seconds, he blinked slowly at Xi Sui'an.
Xi Sui'an glanced at the clones on both sides again.
They saw the main body blink and pause, then disappear on its own on the spot.
She also put down the knife and broke the petrification.
Fifteen seconds.
Yan Wujiu's slow thoughts suddenly started flowing again. He subconsciously touched his neck and felt a little blood. He was surprised and then smiled happily.
"Not bad, the control of the Eye of Petrification is pretty good." Being able to petrify him, whose strength is suppressed to the fifth level, is already worthy of praise.
Yan Wujiu raised his index finger and pressed it against her forehead: "Come on, come on, here's the reward we agreed on."
He summoned a bean-sized reddish light spot from his spiritual consciousness, and then it flowed through his fingertips and merged into Xi Sui'an's forehead.
Xi Sui'an was stunned. This felt a bit like memory inheritance.
The moment this speck of light was hit into the sea of soul, she, whose original power was exhausted and constantly undergoing the process of injury repair, could not withstand this final blow to her soul. Her eyes suddenly blurred, and then she fainted.
"..." Yan Wujiu paused where he was.
——————————————————————————————————
He looked at Xi Sui'an lying on the ground and felt guilty for a second. Although all those he taught had gone through this, they were all aliens, and this one was a human with thin skin and low health...
The sound of "thumping" footsteps was heard.
Li Chu, with his eyes covered with a shawl, and Zhong Heng, with long flowing hair, walked over.
"Chief Yan." The two men met him, then fell silent when they saw Xi Sui'an lying on the ground in a mess.
Zhong Heng raised his eyebrows and said coldly: "Chief Yan, she is a human, please be careful." It is really not easy to repair if it is broken.
Yan Wujiu looked at the indifferent young man and said guiltily: "Be careful next time, haha. Come on, pick her up, no, take her to Agatha's medical room."
Yan Wujiu waved his hand: "Go, go!"
A soft, creamy yellow color appeared on Li Chu's shoulder, Chao Xi popped up, and a pair of big, moist eyes stared at Yan Wujiu fiercely.
It and Xi Sui'an depend on each other for life and death, sharing happiness and hardships. If this guy beats Xi Sui'an, he is beating it!
Can you bear it? No!
Chao Xi jumped off Li Chu's shoulder and turned into Xi Sui'an, but his expression was very rebellious.
It waved its hand and sneered: "You take her away, I'll talk to him!"
Li Chu paused but did not stop it. Even though she didn't know the origin of the tide, she was aware of the peculiarity of this mimic octopus.
"Okay." She stepped forward and she and Zhong Heng held Xi Sui'an on the left and right and walked out of the fighting arena.
Yan Wujiu narrowed his eyes upon seeing this and said calmly: "A mimic octopus... You can't beat me."
Chao Xi took two steps towards him and said, "I'm not going to fight you. I just want to tell you to take it easy, or I'll post all of your Xiezhi's dark history on Damocles' Academy post."
"..."
Yan Wujiu's expression froze.
潮汐双手插兜,语气抑扬顿挫:“《獬豸的爱恨情仇二三事》、《分析獬豸的灵识天赋能力》、《论被雪霁揍到改名的第一任不归城城主》……”
It speaks slowly.
“I believe Peregrine, who studies the history of ethnic group development, will be very interested.”
"..." Yan Wujiu raised his sword-like eyebrows, his expression dangerous, "Little Octopus, are you threatening me?"
How does this little octopus know so much?
Tide shrugged: "Uh-huh."
Yan Wujiu exhaled slowly and folded his arms across his chest: "This is the first time I've been threatened by a parent." Being a teacher is really difficult.
He glanced at Chao Xi: "Who are you?"
It tilted its head: "Tide."
Yan Wujiu pressed his eyebrows and said, "There have been only a few mimic octopuses in history, and only nine of them have left traces in the past few eras."
"Which one are you?" He looked up at the tide.
Chao Xi snorted coldly: "Why do you care who I am?"
Yan Wujiu pondered: "Your tribe is really interesting. Coexisting with humans... I don't believe you don't have a better choice, little octopus, it seems that you have other purposes."
It remained noncommittal: "Originally, my destined fate was to die in my sleep, but now, I have met a noble person, and I think I can still live a little longer."
Yan Wujiu looked at it deeply.
After saying this, Chao Xi turned around and left, waving his hand without looking back: "I am just a wandering little octopus. I don't care about the existence of this huge foreign land and the human world.
"But now, it doesn't hurt to join in and see." We're all going to die sooner or later anyway.
"Chief Yan, please be nice to the human who raised me, or I will blackmail you."
Yan Wujiu watched Chao Xi wipe his face and calmly walk out of the Order Department. He was speechless and choked with deep thought in his eyes.
"The mimic octopus that survived from ancient times... Does that mean it doesn't matter if there's no reaction from that person?"
Yan Wujiu couldn't help scratching the back of his head, and felt a headache when he looked in the direction of the academy.
"Damocles Academy...it might as well be renamed the Endangered Species Shelter. All sorts of weird people have popped up here in recent years."
Yan Wujiu sighed deeply, completely forgetting that he also belonged to a rare race.
When Xi Sui'an woke up again, he was facing Professor Agatha's gentle and beautiful face.
Her long silver hair was tied into a flower bud, dotted with fresh flowers, and a few strands of hair were scattered on her temples, looking peaceful and beautiful.
"Come, take medicine." She said to Xi Sui'an with a gentle smile.
Xi Sui'an opened his mouth in a daze and chewed a pill.
After taking a pill, she suddenly shuddered and became awake instantly.
Silently feeling the empty original power in her body and the extra memory imprints in her mind, she breathed a sigh of relief.
"How do you feel?" Professor Agatha asked gently.
Xi Sui'an touched his left eye and shook his head: "My body is fine, but my left eye has been worn out and I have temporarily lost my vision."
She felt that she would not be able to recover until at least the beginning of the snowy month.
Agatha said regretfully: "As for the Eye of Mythology... I still need to study it further."
"..."
Xi Sui'an swallowed his saliva, turned his head to look at Zhong Heng who was scratching a small notebook and asked solemnly: "Which version of Guben Peiyuan Pill is this?"
Zhong Heng replied calmly: "The fourth version should be about the same."
"Hmm, I seem to taste the flavor of recovery flower? The taste is okay, and the overall effect is better than before." Xi Sui'an recalled the strange taste of the pill just now and gave a serious evaluation.
Zhong Heng hummed, then thought for a moment: "Now you can go to Liangyi Lake Eye to get some origin power. There is too little chaos origin in the outside world. That kind of small secret realm is more suitable for you to recover. Once you recover, you can impact the third level."
Zhongheng made serious suggestions.
Professor Agatha looked at Zhong Heng and showed appreciation: "Not bad, a very accurate judgment. Zhong Heng's suggestion is very desirable."
She nodded to Xi Sui'an with a smile.
"Oh, by the way, these are today's medicinal plants." She pointed to three exotic flowers and herbs in different environments in a glass bottle beside her and said, "Write down your understanding of them."
Xi Sui'an jumped up from the bed. Thanks to the four-version Guyuan Pill, she felt that she was full of energy again.
"Okay, professor!" she said very obediently.
Zhong Heng, who was watching from the sidelines, twitched his lips slightly, revealing a trace of speechlessness. Well, facing Chief Yan, he dared to fight him to the death, but facing Professor Agatha, he became a house cat.
Human beings~
He shook his head.
