pet cultivator

Chapter 16 I Was Intercepted!

When Li Jin quietly returned to the place where the caravan was stationed, he found Wang Ze standing outside his tent, with a hint of anxiety on his face, without saying a word.

When he found out that Li Jin was gone, Li Jin's bed was already cold, and he had been waiting here for almost half an hour.He asked his brothers in the same tent, but they all fell asleep because they were too tired, and didn't notice this boy who was only seven or eight years old.

After everyone checked and found that nothing was missing, Wang Ze also became worried.Although the origin of this child is unknown, but he is too young and alone, so there should be no problem.Could it be that something happened when it was convenient to go out?
Thinking of the gang of bandits Mr. Yi Cheng mentioned today, Wang Ze felt a little anxious. In his heart, he was still full of affection for this young and gentle little brother.So he immediately asked the two brothers to look around, while he stayed by the tent.It's a pity that it's been so long, the two guys who went out to look for people haven't woken up yet, and since they didn't lose anything, Li Jin has nothing to do with them, so they came back after searching around casually and didn't find Li Jin up.

Seeing Wang Ze's appearance, Li Jin was taken aback for a moment, then continued to walk over: "Brother Wang."

"Little brother!" Seeing that Li Jin had returned, Wang Ze walked forward a few steps and put his arms around Li Jin's shoulders: "Where did you go at night? If you don't come back again, I thought you let the people in the canyon A group of bandits have been captured. Although the official road has always been peaceful, but here is near Duanhun Canyon, so be careful."

Li Jin heard the concern expressed in Wang Ze's words, and there was still a trace of doubt. He secretly regretted that he was obsessed with soul orb refining for a while and forgot the time.

Then Li Jin showed a naive smile, scratched the back of his head, and said embarrassingly: "I went out to find a convenient place, but I couldn't sleep for a while, so I walked by the river. Sorry, Let Brother Wang worry."

Wang Ze suddenly thought that this lonely child was going to visit his relatives at the Dragoon Army barracks. He probably missed his parents and suffered from insomnia for a while.Thinking of this, Wang Ze sighed secretly, and looked at Li Jin kindly: "It's as long as you're fine, then go and rest for a while before dawn, and you have to hurry tomorrow."

"Okay." Li Jin nodded, got into the tent, folded his clothes and lay down.Wang Ze looked around for a few times and found nothing, so he walked away and returned to the carriage carrying goods.For him, the caravan's goods are the most important, which is related to the livelihood of this group of people and their families.

------

Li Jin, who was lying down, breathed a sigh of relief.If his identity as a first-rank pet master is exposed, everyone may be a little surprised at Li Jin's age, because nowadays, rare things are more expensive, and the status of pet masters in the mainland is already relatively high. It not only reflects the cutting-edge combat power of a force, but also represents the comprehensive strength of this force from the side.Many high-level pet masters will choose to become the enshrined protectors of the royal family or aristocratic families, in order to obtain the resources for their soul pets to continue to practice and grow.And if it wasn't for a wealthy family, there wouldn't be enough resources to train pet masters from an early age.

However, as a member of the Li family in Tianji City, even if Li Jin didn't have a thorough understanding of what a soul orb means, he still had a glimpse of it.

Now in the entire Beast Soul Continent, after tens of thousands of years, there are not many soul orbs in stock, and high-level soul orbs are priceless, and have already become strategic resources in the hands of various empires and aristocratic families.

Don't think that as the number of soul orbs gradually decreases, the influence on soul pets will gradually weaken.In today's mainland, pet masters themselves lack the method of cultivation, and the only way for soul pets and even pet masters to enhance their strength is to improve the rank of soul pets.However, being limited by the talent of soul pets directly leads to the gap in strength between soul pets of the same level and different talent levels. One day, the strength of the soul pet will stabilize and stagnate.

On the battlefield, if the cutting-edge strength of the two sides has not changed, the absolute strength gap will make the battle without any suspense.However, if a suitable high-level soul orb appears at this time, there is a great possibility that the balance of strength will change instantly.

Therefore, in battles between pet masters, sometimes there will be situations where low-level counterattacks high-level, or one side suddenly wins in a war of attrition, and these usually have the shadow of soul orbs in it.

It is precisely because a small soul orb can make the outcome of the battle unpredictable, so it will become a real strategic resource, and it cannot be used unless it is absolutely necessary.Although the use of soul orbs is never restricted in the battles of pet masters, no pet master or force would choose to use soul orbs to win the opponent, or throw soul orbs at each other to consume each other.

Everyone is innocent, but pregnant is guilty.It is precisely because of this that if Li Jin's identity as a soul bead master is now known to others, Li Jin thinks that he does not have the strength to protect this inheritance.Once a caring person knows that he can refine soul orbs, no one can resist the temptation.I am afraid that when the time comes, my end will either be controlled and become a tool for others to refine soul orbs, or I will be forced to hand over the inheritance of the Wanhun Congealing Orb Art, and then expose my body in the wilderness or in an alley without anyone noticing .

Thinking of this, Li Jin secretly decided that he must be more careful in the future. Things like refining soul orbs in places where others might find them should never be done again.

But at this moment, Li Jin had a look of pain on his face, but he remembered what happened in the depression on the back of the boulder just now.

Just now, Li Jin saw that the blue star grass was still left, and he felt that he could continue to refine the soul orbs. Coupled with the excitement of successfully refining the soul orbs for the first time, Li Jin continued to refine the Huiyuan beads.

Only then did Li Jin realize the hardships of refining soul orbs.Even with wicker weaving skills, which can be called a cheating ability, Li Jin's success rate in refining this simplest first-order soul orb is less than [-]%.Inadvertently, the two thin lines of aura of different attributes interfered with each other, or accidentally, the thin lines suddenly touched together and were scattered.Every tiny mistake made Li Jin have to start all over again.

But the final result was still acceptable to Li Jin, not counting the one that Li Jin took away at first, he also refined a total of seven Huiyuan beads.

Of course, for a person who has been in contact with soul orb refining for less than a week, if a blind cat encounters a dead mouse, he is lucky enough to successfully refine it once.And like Li Jin, who has successfully refined soul orbs so many times, his success rate was the best among ten thousand years ago, a genius among soul orb masters.It is estimated that the ancestor of Wanhun who has lived for tens of thousands of years will jump up in surprise when he finds out.

Just when Li Jin was about to put away all the seven emerald green beads, a fluctuating breath suddenly appeared on Li Jin's chest, which was alternately red and blue.

Li Jin was shocked, and looked at his chest, but he didn't know what happened, he only knew that something happened to his weird spherical soul pet.

Don't look at Li Jin, although he is already a veritable Tier [-] pet master, but he is still a half-baked person whose knowledge of soul pets is still at the theoretical stage, and he has never encountered such a situation before.

And in the next second, that spherical soul pet with mysterious lines appeared in front of Li Jin who was at a loss for a while.

"My soul pet... unexpectedly ran out by itself?" Li Jin looked at the sphere in front of him, and couldn't help but freeze in place.

In fact, this is Li Jin's fuss.In fact, all soul pets can appear on their own, and to a certain extent, they can fight or possess according to their own wishes, or return to the owner's chest as an air ball, but this will consume the soul pet's own spiritual power, and through the pet master The seal summoning only uses the spiritual power between heaven and earth.

Otherwise, if the imperial pet master is injured and cannot form a seal, or if he loses his arm by accident, then this imperial pet master will be abolished just like that?Ahem, our pet master profession does not discriminate against fellow disabled people.

However, the next thing that happened in front of Li Jin made him twitch incessantly when he recalled it.

Seven green soul beads floated into the air, slowly spinning around Li Jin's ball-shaped soul pet.Gradually, the seven Huiyuan beads approached the sphere surrounded in the middle, and then slowly merged into the sphere without any resistance!
Li Jin stared wide-eyed at what happened, and was stunned for a moment.It wasn't until the sphere glowed for a while, and he stood in front of Li Jin like a tumbler and shook it, as if enjoying aftertaste, that Li Jin reacted.Immediately, Li Jin's face turned dark, darker than the night.

"My soul orb—" This soul orb is easier to lose than to get.The corner of Li Jin's mouth was twitching, and he almost looked up to the sky and howled.

However, after the spherical soul pet had a full meal, the red and blue lines on the surface spread to the surrounding blank space and became more abundant.The complex red and blue patterns glowed faintly, and finally turned into a ball of red and blue air again, which penetrated into Li Jin's chest and disappeared.

Li Jin sat there blankly, and it took him a long time to finally recover, shaking his head and smiling wryly.Well, brother worked so hard all night, thinking he would make a fortune, but in the end he was cut off by his inexplicable soul pet!In the end, there was only the Huiyuan bead left in the storage bag.

Li Jin shook his head helplessly. Forget it, the soul orb is gone, and it can be refined again. Technology is the core productivity.Furthermore, taking a ten thousand step back, these soul orbs were also used on his natal soul pet, no loss, no loss...

Li Jin kept muttering about not losing money, trying to comfort himself, but with a wry smile all the way to the station of Wang Ze's caravan...
