The Gate of the Genkai

Warning

The competition on the monthly ticket list is heating up, and now we urgently need firepower support. I hope everyone can see if there are any guaranteed monthly tickets that have not been cast, and help Xuanjie to vote.

“Your Highness, please wait here for a moment, I’ll go to the room to get my luggage.” Shi Mu carefully put away the cyan bone fragment, said to Princess Huowu, turned around and wanted to leave.

“Shi Mu, you don’t have to go with me anymore.” Princess Huowu turned her eyes and said suddenly.

Shi Mu was a little surprised when he heard the words, stopped in his tracks, turned his head and looked over, with a trace of inquiry in his eyes.

“You have managed to gather the beast soul and the secret totem technique, so let’s get rid of the hidden dangers in the body here with peace of mind. I have the guards sent by the priest of the flame tooth, so safety will never be a problem. As far as I know, the barbarian totem secret technique Art is definitely not something that can be cultivated easily, and you can also ask Priest Yanya and others for advice here, once you leave the Holy Snow Palace, I am afraid that there will be no chance to ask others.” Fire Dance Princess said so.

“Thank you, Princess, for your consideration.” Upon hearing this, Shi Mu cupped his fists and bowed to Princess Huowu, and said.

Princess Huowu smiled faintly, and took out a palm-sized seven-pointed purple gold token from her waist, with some strange runes carved on one side, and the word “Unity” engraved on the other side, and handed it to Shi Mu.

Shi Mu was startled, and took it.

“This item is the Purple Gold Token of my alliance of seven sects. With this token, one can enter and leave the seven sects of the alliance at will, and can request assistance at any stronghold of the alliance. You have made great contributions to successfully forming an alliance with the barbarians this time. This item will be donated to You, it’s my little thank you.” Fire Dance Princess said.

“How is this possible?” Shi Mu was startled, he quickly declined, and wanted to hand back the token.

“Brother Shi, you don’t need to refuse. This thing is actually not very useful to me. What I promised earlier, you have to do it yourself in the end. I feel quite guilty in my heart. This thing can be regarded as my little compensation.” Fire Dance Princess chuckled lightly.

Fire Dance Princess said so. Shi Mu couldn’t refuse any more, so he had to put away the token.

“By the way, this Priest Yihe has a deep hatred for you, in front of the High Priest. He will not dare to tamper with the totem secret technique, but when you return to the human race, you still need to be careful.” Huo Wu The princess said in a low voice.

Shi Mu frowned slightly, and nodded slowly.

At this moment, Priest Yanya has completed the establishment of the guard team. Leading a small team of more than twenty people came over.

Although the number of this team is small, every barbarian has more than acquired strength in the late stage. The leader of the team is a masked young woman with rather indifferent eyes, but the aura fluctuates strongly on her body, which is impressively an innate existence.

“This is Elder Lang Qing of our clan, and she will be responsible for protecting Huo Wu from now on.The safety of the princess on this trip. “Yan Ya said confidently.

“Then I will trouble Elder Langqing.” Princess Huowu said with a slight smile.

The cold expression in the masked young woman’s eyes subsided a little, and she nodded to Princess Huowu. Stand where you are.

“Elder Yan Ya, there is one thing that I may need your help with.” Princess Huo Wu immediately told Yan Ya that Shi Mu wanted to stay to practice the totem secret technique.

“Princess Huowu, don’t worry, I will leave this matter to me. Brother Shi Mu, if you need anything, you can come to me at any time.” Priest Yanya immediately patted his chest and agreed.

“So, I feel relieved.” Fire Dance Princess nodded and said, then turned around and walked down the mountain surrounded by the masked young woman and others.

In a certain stone room of Qingya Palace.

Shi Mu, who had just returned to the room, was sitting cross-legged on the bed, looking excitedly at the blue bone piece in his hand, ready to study it carefully.

Knock Knock

There was a rhythmic knock on the door.

Shi Mu was taken aback. With some reluctance, he glanced at the bone fragment in his hand, put it back in his arms, and then got up and walked out of the bedroom.

Soon he opened the door, and a young barbarian in a white priest’s robe stood smilingly at the door.

“Mo Zhu, the priest of the Lower Holy Snow Palace. May I ask if you are the Shi Mu Warrior of the Human Race Mission?” The young priest asked first.

“So it’s Priest Mo Zhu, and I’m Shi Mu. Please come in.” Hearing this, Shi Mu nodded and said.

“No need, Warrior Shimu, I’m looking for you next time because the high priest wants to summon you.” After finishing speaking. Mo Zhu looked at Shi Mu curiously.

“Priest Mo Zhu, do you know why the High Priest summoned you here?” Shi Mu was startled and asked calmly.

Now that the peace talks between the two clans have ended, he is just an ordinary guard of Princess Huowu, how could the high priest summon him suddenly.

“I don’t know about this.” Mo Zhu shook his head and said.

Shi Mu had no choice but to follow Mo Zhu in the direction of the Holy Snow Palace with a feeling of apprehension.

A quarter of an hour later, Shi Mu and Mo Zhu appeared in front of a side hall deep in the Holy Snow Palace.

“Warrior Shi Mu, it is inconvenient for me to enter here, please.” Mo Zhu stood at the door and made a gesture of invitation to Shi Mu.

Shi Mu took a deep breath, stepped into the side hall, and glanced quickly.

This is a small palace room, with four thick stone pillars propping up the entire space, and a butter brazier is hung on each stone pillar, and the swaying firelight makes the whole space look a little drowsy.

The palace room is very simple, except for two rows of seats in the center, there are no other decorations, and the old high priest Bilige is leaning on the main seat with his eyes closed.

“It’s Shi Mu, come and sit down, don’t be restrained.” As if hearing Shi Mu’s footsteps, Bilige’s deep voice suddenly sounded.

“Yes.” Shi Mu’s heart skipped a beat, he hurried forward to salute, then found a chair at random to the left of the high priest, and sat down respectfully.

“The reason why I called you here today is mainly because of the corpse soul curse in your body. You must plan to start comprehending the secret art of totems and start sealing the beast souls.” Bilige slowly opened his eyes , asked slowly.

“That’s right, I really have this intention.” Shi Mu replied calmly with a thought in his heart.

“If you rashly seal the beast soul in the way of an ordinary totem warrior, I’m afraid that the corpse soul curse has not been lifted, but you will fall into a near-death situation.” Bilige shook his head slightly and said.

“Why did the High Priest say that?” Shi Mu was taken aback and almost jumped up.

The first thing he thought of was that Yihe, the priest of the Snake Tribe, had tampered with the totem secret technique, but he checked the bone fragment as soon as he got it. Human beings are generally the same, and some of the common principles recorded are also consistent with those described in the totem secret technique obtained from the Crow Soaring Department.

Thoughts in his mind turned sharply, but he still wisely didn’t say it.

“You don’t have to doubt the authenticity of the secret technique of the snake totem in your hand. There are other reasons for this matter, let me tell you slowly.” Bilige sighed softly like a prophet, and with one sentence, Shi Mu was exposed. thoughts.

Shi Mu’s heart moved, he responded, leaned forward half a point, and listened intently.

From Bilige’s next words, Shi Mu had a thorough understanding of the barbarian totem secret art.

It turns out that if ordinary barbarians want to become totem warriors, priests of various races have to carve totems on their bodies at the beginning, and then try to seal the soul of an acquired fierce beast. Once the seal is successful, they can become a totem warrior immediately, and then pass Constantly refine the beast soul, absorb the soul energy in the beast soul, and gradually increase the power of the beast soul, thereby improving the cultivation base.

Therefore, the level of cultivation among the barbarian totem warriors is closely related to the sealed beast soul. Ordinary-grade beast souls are generally promoted to acquired Dzogchen at most, and only a few high-grade rare beast souls can be promoted to innate. Most acquired totem warriors use their own soul and the soul power of this beast soul as the foundation after the beast soul reaches the acquired great perfection, and then try to seal an innate initial stage animal soul, so as to upgrade to the innate stage.

Generally speaking, the day after tomorrow when ordinary Manchus first sealMost of the beast souls are at the initial stage, even so, the success rate is less than 10%. Because the higher the cultivation level of the beast soul, the lower the chance of successful sealing, and the higher the grade of the beast soul, the easier it is to cause the beast soul to backlash when sealing.

“The three ferocious pythons you want to seal inherit the bloodline of the nine-headed golden dragon of the ancient monster beast. Possess innate mid-term strength, but the possibility of failure is very high, basically it can be said to be impossible.” Bilige said expressionlessly.

Shi Mu’s face turned pale as if struck by lightning. Hearing Bilige’s explanation of the barbarian’s true cultivation method, his joy of just getting the totem secret surgery of the Snake Department disappeared in an instant.

“Shi Mu, in fact, you practice the totem secret technique of the Snake Department not to improve your cultivation, but to unravel the curse of the myriad corpse souls of the Snake Department, so you don’t need to completely seal the beast souls of the three pythons, you As long as the beast souls of the three pythons are guided to devour the cursed beast souls through the totem secret technique of the Snake Department, the seal can be terminated in time. If this is done, the success rate is quite high, except for the waste of the beast souls. “Just when Shi Mu was depressed, Bilige said suddenly.

Shi Mu was stunned for a moment, and then he was overjoyed. As the supreme authority of barbarian totem secret arts, if he said so, there should be no mistake.

“Master High Priest, why did you tell me these things?” After a while, Shi Mu’s face returned to normal, and he asked with a twinkle in his eyes.

“Shi Mu, do you have a necklace belonging to our barbarians?” Bilige did not answer Shi Mu’s question, but asked him an unexpected question.

Shi Mu was stunned for a moment, then immediately thought of the weird necklace that Feng Li kept with him.

At this moment, a strange and unspeakable invisible force suddenly enveloped him.

He looked up in surprise, the old high priest didn’t move at all, but his dim old eyes became brighter and brighter.

Shi Mu felt a chill in his heart, and two eyes that seemed to penetrate everything swept across his body, as if all the secrets in his heart had been seen through.

“Indeed.” Shi Mu admitted with a shudder in his heart.

“Take it out and show the old man how it is.” Although the high priest’s tone was flat, it was full of unquestionable majesty.

After hesitating for a while, Shi Mu untied a strange looking necklace from his neck, on which was engraved a strange beast that looked like an ape but not an ape.
