Taming the Demon: A Guide to Raising a Great Sage

Chapter 140 139, Tracking Sword Qi!Level [-] Agility Enhancement!

After Xiao Zhao demonstrated the "Seventh Gold Sword Qi", Shen Lang had an accurate understanding of its upgraded Seventh Gold Sword Qi.

Xiao Zhao's Gengjin Sword Qi only has one, and the coverage area is far inferior to that of Xiaoyu's "Lianzhu Water Arrow".

In terms of power, it is also slightly inferior to the Lianzhu Water Arrow, and may be weakened by the internal strength of the fifth-rank warrior. It cannot kill a fifth-rank master in seconds like the Lianzhu Water Arrow fired by hundreds of arrows.

But Gengjin Sword Qi also has its own strengths, it can track and lock the enemy.

Within a hundred meters, wherever Xiao Zhao looked, the sword energy would not stop chasing until the power was exhausted.

This alone is enough to make up for the disadvantages of Gengjin Sword Qi's small damage range and weak power.

And the "cooling time" of Gengjin Sword Qi is also relatively short.

After firing a burst of sword energy, it only needs to cool down for half an hour.Half an hour shorter than the cooling time of the small fish "Lianzhu Water Arrow".

But for "Wind of the King", the cooling time is the same as that of Xiaoyu's "Lightning Strike", it takes a full two hours.

But even after using spells, Xiao Zhao will not turn into a weak little milk cat.

Just like Xiao Yu, after being promoted to the second level, Xiao Zhao also possessed great strength in his small body.

One blow from the cat fist is as powerful as a seventh-rank warrior.

The Chain Cat Fist is at least not inferior to Zhao Mengshan's Tiger Claw Kung Fu.

After Xiao Zhao was promoted to the second level, not only did his own strength increase dramatically, but he also brought rich rewards to Shen Lang.

First of all, the progress of Shen Lang's "Monster Taming Art" has been raised to 90/100 after he worked hard these days.

As soon as Xiao Zhao was promoted, he immediately rewarded him with 10 points of cultivation progress, which made him complete the second level instantly, advanced to the third level with the Monster Taming Art, and his spiritual power improved by leaps and bounds again.

After this rapid increase in mental power, although there is no new mental power ability, the distance from the little monsters to send messages has increased to 400 meters.

Within a radius of 400 meters, he and the little demon can send messages across the air regardless of obstacles.

The coverage radius of the active ability "Spiritual Power Scan" has been increased to ten meters, and it is faster to activate, without deliberately holding your breath and concentrating to adjust your emotional state.

The passive ability "Spiritual Sense Warning" has also been improved, allowing it to perceive hostile gazes from a longer distance.

In the end, after the Monster Taming Art reached the third level, Shen Lang's mental strength was enough to support him to practice seventh-rank Taoism.

In addition to the improvement of the spiritual level.

"Agility Enhancement" has also risen to the second level.

The second level of agility enhancement made Shen Lang's tendons and ligaments even tougher. Each tendon and ligament was twisted like a steel wire, not only extremely tough, but also more explosive.

The sense of space, distance, balance and other condensation qualities have also been greatly improved.

This not only greatly improved his martial arts, but also greatly helped him practice Taoism. Taoism runes are all three-dimensional shapes with complex structures. When constructing runes, the requirements for sense of space, distance, and balance are naturally extremely high of.

The sense of space is not strong enough, and even the three-dimensional structure of Taoist runes is not clear, so how can we weave runes with divine thoughts?

If the sense of distance and balance are not enough, the construction of runes will be full of mistakes, and it is difficult to construct Taoism runes that cannot tolerate a single error.

The reason why Shen Lang was able to construct three ninth-grade Taoism techniques in less than seven days was not only that his mental strength was strong enough and he was assisted by the "Monster Taming Art Little Moon", but also because he originally had the comprehensive quality endowed by the first-level agility enhancement. .

Now that the agility enhancement has been upgraded to the second level, all comprehensive qualities have been fully improved, and it will become easier to construct Taoist runes. The "Flame Knife" rune that was originally planned to take two days to complete may take up to a day and a half. can be successfully constructed.

In addition, Shen Lang also found that his perception and judgment of "speed" became more accurate.

When he concentrates his eyes, the opponent's movements will slow down a beat or two in his field of vision, so that he can see them more clearly - for example, Xiao Zhao's cat fist is so fast that only afterimages are left. can not see clearly.

Although it is still an afterimage now, at least when you concentrate your eyes, you can barely see the trajectory of its punching.

This made Shen Lang couldn't help but wonder, in the future, with the promotion of "Agility Enhancement" to a higher stage, will he gain the ability of "Bullet Time"?

Will it even come soon...

In his eyes, others are as slow as standing still, gaining the ability to "stand still" in a relative concept?
It's all very possible!

Of course, the premise is that Xiao Zhao has enough spirit...

After taking stock of the upgrade harvest.

Shen Lang habitually called out the "properties panel" and browsed it.

In the current "attribute panel", in addition to the demon taming formula, agility enhancement, and Xiao Zhao's description update, there is also a new "spell" list, which records all the four ninth-rank spells that Shen Lang has practiced. .

As for the low-level skills such as "flame finger", it is not worth recording.

The eighth-rank Taoism "Flame Knife" is because it has not been formally cultivated, even if Shen Lang has already understood this technique, he is not qualified to be listed on it.

In addition, Shen Lang had completed the eighth rank three days ago, and began to practice the seventh rank "refining viscera" mental method, and at the same time he was practicing the breathing and breathing method of the ten-step-one-kill and eight-direction earth movement——

Martial arts practice, although it pays attention to "fundamental skills", but it does not mean that it cannot be practiced concurrently.

At least at the stage below the fourth rank, as long as the body can bear it, and there is enough time, energy, and understanding, it is possible to practice multiple non-conflicting exercises at the same time, and learn from each other's strengths-the so-called "non-conflicting", of course It refers to the attribute of mind.For example, the "Xuan Bing Jin" of the South Sea Sword School cannot coexist with the "Lang Huo Jin" and other exercises.

It was not until reaching the fourth rank and condensing the "seeds of true energy" that one had to choose a "fundamental skill" to condense the seeds of true energy.

Although you can still practice other exercises in the future, at most you can only study the secrets of strength and moves of other exercises, but you can no longer practice the true qi of other exercises.

Shen Lang is only qualified as a seventh-rank entry now, so he can rest assured that he can also cultivate.

And his "Ten Steps and One Kill" does not have attributes such as ice and fire, but the main force is agile and explosive, which is completely compatible with the main force's "Eight Directions".

There is no conflict with the water attribute tide palm and the non-attribute tiger claw skill, and they are compatible.

However, although Shen Lang is in good health and has the "vitality enhancement" to provide durability, he still has to practice Taoism, and his time is limited.

Therefore, after the completion of the eighth rank, he only alternately practiced the seventh rank breathing method of "ten steps, one kill" and "earthquake in all directions", and had no time to practice tiger claw skills and tidal palm.

Even now, his ten-step-one-kill and eight-direction earthquake are all entry-level seven.But Tiger Claw Kung Fu is still at the eighth rank, and the Tidal Palm is simply only at the ninth rank.

Shen Lang didn't have time to study martial arts moves.

Except for the move "White Rainbow Piercing the Sun" and the newly developed one move other than the straight stab, he didn't study other moves.

Concurrently practicing "Eight Directions Ground Movement Kungfu" is just to make up for shortcomings and improve strength.

In other words, Shen Lang actually wanted to enlighten a little monster with a power attribute.

In this way, he can directly obtain the power enhancement fed back by the little demon, and there is no need to practice power-based exercises by himself.

But he already has four little demons, and a little fire crow that is in the process of being conceived. The daily output of "Emperor Ointment" is limited, and it really can't be allocated, so he can only put aside this idea for the time being, and cultivate strength by himself first.

Speaking of which, after the "Monster Taming Art" was promoted to the third level, the efficiency of "Little Moon" absorbing the aura of heaven and earth and transforming "Emperor Flowing Ointment" also increased a little.

Now 9% of the quota can be produced every day, and it only takes eleven days to fill up a well.

And Xiao Zhao has already advanced to the second level, according to the principle of first come, first served, fairness and justice, next, Xiaogu should enjoy the daily output of Emperor Ointment exclusively.

Xiaogu is only in the first realm, with his "natural jade bones" and swordsmanship, he is no less than a seventh-rank warrior.

If it is promoted to the second level, Shen Lang is quite looking forward to what its strength will be.

At this time, Xiaogu finally finished a round of training and regained his senses.

Sensing that Shen Lang was in the space, it quickly got up, ran up to Shen Lang with a pair of slender bony feet, pressed the little skull against his heart, and rubbed it affectionately for a while.

Shen Lang caressed its smooth and jade-like little skull, communicated with it through telepathy for a while, and then announced to all the little demons in public that Xiaogu will practice in the five-color round well next, until he is promoted to the second level.

"After Xiaoyu enjoyed the emperor's juice all by himself, he was promoted to the second level in ten days. Xiao Zhao was tired and lazy, but he was promoted to the second level in only seventeen days. Now the output of the emperor's juice has increased slightly, Xiaogu, you practice It will only be faster. I hope Xiao Gu won’t be compared to Xiao Yu and Xiao Zhao.”

Xiaogu opened and closed his teeth, making a light click, conveying his heartfelt voice to Shen Lang:
"Seven... days..."

"Seven days?" Shen Lang raised his eyebrows: "You only need seven days to be sure to advance to the second realm?"

With a light click, Xiaogu raised his chin, and in the empty eye sockets, red light shone brightly. Although his emotions were indifferent, Shen Lang still felt a certain kind of confidence from his "eyes".

"Okay, after seven days, we will wait for the good news from Little Bone!"

Two days later, Shen Lang easily completed the eighth-rank Taoism "Flame Knife".

This technique can emit a crescent moon-shaped red flame blade, which can be cast in advance to store the knife energy in the palm edge. Eighth-rank monks can store up to three knife energy at the same time, which lasts for an hour.

When necessary, with a wave of the palm, the three sword qi can be emitted simultaneously.

Although the "Flame Knife" cannot track and lock the enemy, its attack speed is extremely fast and its power is huge. If three pairs of military breastplates are stacked together, they will be cut through by a single knife.It is difficult for a warrior of the seventh rank to be hit by a flame knife, and if a warrior of the sixth rank of internal strength is slow to react, he will either die or be disabled.

After completing this technique, Shen Lang already possessed an eighth-rank Taoism and four ninth-rank Taoisms, all of which are quite practical spells.

Of course, he can't be called an "eighth-rank monk" yet.

Even though he has advanced to the third level of "Demon Taming Art", he is qualified to practice seventh-rank Taoism, but he still knows too few spells.

To be regarded as a true eighth-rank Taoist monk, one must have completed three eighth-rank Taoism and six ninth-rank Taoism at the same time.

Shen Lang now knows an eighth-rank Taoism, and he is a bit reluctant to even be rated as "from the eighth rank".

Two days later, after a ten-day voyage from Jiange Island, the fleet finally arrived at Yingzhou Port.
