Chapter 223: Castle of the Night
Swish!
Just when Lin Xun was surprised, Xue Jin suddenly reached out and grabbed Jiu Jiu, his palm pointing like a net, as if he wanted to imprison Jiu Jiu.
But when I saw the round body of Chirp, it turned into a hair-thin firelight, flickering and disappearing, and the next moment, it had appeared more than ten feet away.
Lin Xun's eyes narrowed, what a speed!
"See, this is its second talent, shapeshifting!"
Xue Jin put away his palm, and the different colors in his eyes became more and more intense, as if he had discovered a rare treasure, "As far as I know, it is extremely rare for a spirit beast in this heaven and earth to have the means of transformation like Jiu Jiu. ”
The so-called transformation means that the body can be transformed into another form, like the means of incarnating a wisp of fire just now, which is not something that other spirit beasts can do!
"And you should also notice that after the tweet transforms, between the flashes, if the lightning sweeps the sky, it is incredibly fast, which is very rare. ”
Xue Jin praised again and again, he had practiced so far, and he had also seen some heaven and earth spirit beasts with strange talents, and even witnessed the "Purple Horned Green Beast" sitting in the imperial family!
But he had never seen a beast like Jiu Jiu, which not only contained the Shattered Star Golden Fire in his body, but was like a natural smelting master, and even mastered the rare and incomparably incomparable talent of transformation.
Coupled with the fact that it is impossible to determine the origin of Jiu Jiu's background, it also has a touch of mystery in Xue Jin's eyes.
Lin Xun took Jiu Jiu in his hand, and kept rubbing the little guy's soft and round body, looking at the little guy's cute and cheerful appearance, he couldn't help but wonder in his heart, could it be that Jiu Jiu was really a rare supernatural spirit beast?
After playing for a long time, Jiu Jiu seemed to be hungry, and his small mouth kept sucking Lin Xun's fingers.
Lin Xundeng was sober and realized a serious problem, this little guy was a strange beast that relied on devouring spirit crystals as food!
When he was born, the little guy needed to devour a piece of high-grade spirit crystal every three days, and if it weren't for Xiao Man, Lin Xun wouldn't have been able to feed this little monster at all.
And now, Xiao Man is not around, he can only rely on himself to raise Jiu Jiu, and the thought of often preparing some high-grade spirit crystals to feed Jiu Jiu, Lin Xun can't help but gasp, this is a huge expense!
The most important thing is that Lin Xun does not have a high-grade spirit crystal on his body at all, he tried to take out some pills to feed Jiu Jiu, but he shook his head in disgust when he saw Jiu Jiu directly.
"Lao Jin, do you have a high-grade spirit crystal on you?" Lin Xun had to ask Xue Jin for help.
Xue Jin was surprised: "This little guy is replenishing his strength by devouring high-grade spirit crystals?"
Lin Xun nodded heavily.
Xue Jin couldn't help laughing: "Hahaha, that's right, this little guy has such a miraculous means, and it must be different from other spirit beasts, well, in this way, this little guy's stomach is a gold hole, and he really can't afford to raise it without money." ”
No matter how you listen to it, there is a schadenfreude in the sound.
Lin Xun glared at Lao Jin angrily, and suddenly said to Jiu Jiu: "Go, find this guy to ask for food." ”
As if he understood, he turned around and looked at Lao Jin with a pair of pitiful black eyes, and kept tweeting.
Xue Jin sneered, took out a brilliant spirit crystal glowing with blue light, and said: "This is a top-grade Qingyi spirit crystal, the power contained in it is ten times that of a high-level spirit crystal, only a Cave Heaven Realm cultivator has the ability to absorb and refine the power in it, if you little guy can eat it, I ......"
Before he finished speaking, he heard a whoosh, and the tweet had already rushed over, swallowing this Qingyi spirit crystal in one gulp, and let out a cry of joy.
Immediately, I saw the flames flowing around Jiu Jiu's body, as if breathing, producing a terrifying burning power.
In the end, it seemed to be full, and with a full burp, it turned into a line of fire and disappeared into the palm of Lin Xun's right hand, obviously, it was going to sleep again......
Xue Jin was stunned for a moment, and only after half a sound did he swallow and spit with difficulty: "It can really refine Qingyi Spirit Crystal......! It's too tasty!"
Lin Xun couldn't help but be happy: "Lao Jin, since this is the case, the food will be handed over to you to deal with in the future." ”
Xue Jin's cheeks twitched fiercely, and he gritted his teeth and said, "Do you know how much a Qingyi Spirit Crystal can sell for on the market?"
He stretched out a finger: "One hundred gold coins! It is twenty times the size of a high-grade spirit crystal! If it has to eat a piece every day, Lao Tzu will be bankrupt and will not be able to support it!"
Lin Xun's heart was beating for a while, and he still smiled and said, "It's okay, I believe that you can definitely do it, Lao Jin." ”
Xue Jin sneered: "Boy, are you lying to me?"
Lin Xun said helplessly: "Lao Jin, you just said that Jiu Jiu is a magical and rare spirit beast, you shouldn't watch it starve to death, right?"
Xue Jin snorted: "Anyway, it's not Lao Tzu's spirit beast, what does it matter to me to starve to death?"
Speaking of this, his eyes rolled, and the corners of his lips suddenly showed a malicious smile: "However, if you promise me one thing, I may be able to promise not to starve this little guy to death." ”
Lin Xun said vigilantly: "Let's talk about something first, I can definitely help you if I can do it." ”
Xue Jin said hesitantly: "Don't be nervous, you may not be able to do it now, but you can definitely do it in the future." ”
Lin Xun sighed and said, "What is the matter?" ”
Xue Jin no longer hidden, stared at Lin Xun tightly, and said bluntly: "Help me tailor a set of spirit pattern battle clothes!"
Spirit Pattern Battle Suit!
Lin Xun was shocked in his heart, the Spirit Pattern Battle Suit is not so easy to refine, and it often takes several Spirit Pattern Masters to join forces to have a chance to refine a set of Spirit Pattern Battle Suit!
There is a chance to refine it, not a certainty that it can be refined!
When you really go to refine, just collecting the required spiritual materials, spiritual ink, and spiritual patterns is an unimaginable project, which is extremely complicated and difficult, and the reason why the spiritual pattern battle suit is incredibly powerful is that if you want to successfully refine a set of spirit pattern battle suits, you also need chance!
At least as far as Lin Xun knew, in today's empire, even among those upper-level gate valve forces with an extremely long heritage, the number of spirit pattern battle uniforms possessed was only a handful.
The reason is that the Spirit Pattern Battle Suit is too difficult to refine, and only in terms of manpower, material resources, and financial resources, it is not something that ordinary forces can afford!
Many of the spirit pattern battle suits known in the world today are goods that have been passed down for hundreds of years, or even thousands of years, and the newly refined spirit pattern battle suits are not nothing, but the number is extremely rare.
For example, in the Imperial Divine Crafting Academy, there are a group of the top spirit pattern masters in the empire, not to mention the existence of spirit pattern masters and spirit pattern masters, but when refining the spirit pattern battle suit, it will take several months to refine a set.
It seemed that he also knew that his requirements were a bit harsh, and Xue Jin added: "Of course, all the spiritual materials for refining the Spirit Pattern Battle Uniform are provided by me, you only need to help me refine them, even if you fail, it doesn't matter." ”
Lin Xun smiled bitterly when he heard this: "Old Jin, I'm only a junior spirit pattern master now, and you have so much confidence in me?"
Xue Jin smiled like an old fox and said, "Junior Spirit Pattern Master, hehe, I have never seen a junior Spirit Pattern Master like you, and even in my opinion, that Qinglu Academy's 'Genius Girl' is far less powerful than you." ”
Lin Xun glared and said, "You are killing!"
Xue Jin said angrily: "Boy, my conditions are good enough, it doesn't matter if the refining fails, how can there be such a good thing in this world? What's more, this little guy is a gold cave, can you bear to watch a spirit beast with supernatural talent being starved to death?"
Lin Xun thought for a moment and said, "Okay, since you're not afraid, what do I have to worry about, but I can tell you that I haven't been able to refine the Spirit Pattern Battle Uniform yet." ”
Seeing that Lin Xun agreed, Xue Jin suddenly smiled, patted Lin Xun on the shoulder affectionately, and said with a smile: "Don't worry, when you have this ability in the future, I will come to you as soon as possible." ”
This matter was settled, Lin Xun solved the problem of feeding and tweeting, and Xuejin also obtained a promise from Lin Xun, and everyone was happy.
"There is still nearly half a year before the provincial examination, do you have any plans for the future?" asked Xue Jin.
"Make money, cultivate. ”
Lin Xun's answer was simple.
Xue Jin nodded and said: "With the combat effectiveness you showed that night, it shouldn't be a big problem to pass this provincial examination, but you should not underestimate the provincial examination, there will never be a shortage of amazing and unparalleled geniuses in this world." ”
Lin Xun snorted and said, "I won't underestimate anyone, but if anyone underestimates me, he can only be considered unlucky." ”
Xuejin laughed: "Then I'll wait and see." ”
Lin Xun also got up with a smile and walked towards the courtyard: "I'll go to the Spirit Pattern Master Commune to take a look, Chu Feng helped me a lot last time, and now that the danger has been lifted, I should go to the door to thank you." ”
Xue Jin waved his hand and said, "Go ahead." ”
After Lin Xun left, Xue Jin fell into deep thought, and finally sighed, shook his head, and took out a black post as pure as night.
I didn't see him move, and the whole post suddenly burned, and finally turned into nothingness and disappeared.
At the same time, in the Forbidden City, the capital of the empire, a black building resembles an ancient castle on a towering mountain next to a lake.
The building is magnificent, it is dark, and the light between heaven and earth does not seem to dare to approach here, plunging this place into a kind of eternal shadow.
In the entire empire, only a handful of high-ranking people know that this building is called "Night Fortress"!
The owner of the fortress is as mysterious as the eternal night, like a taboo, and few people in the world know her name, but rumors about the "Night Queen" have been circulating in the darkness of the empire.
On a winding mountain stone path in front of the Dark Night Castle, an old man in a black court dress with a kind and gentle face paced upward.
When he arrived at the castle, the bronze gate filled with the atmosphere of the ancient vicissitudes quietly opened, and the old man tidied up his clothes and strode in.
The castle was dark, and if the eternal night shrouded it, it was quiet and solemn, revealing a kind of oppressive power.
"Miss, I have found some clues about the origin of Lin Xun's son. ”
The old man stood quietly in the darkness and spoke softly.
"Oh. In the darkness, an indifferent voice sounded.
In an instant, a flash of light appeared in the entire castle, dispelling the darkness and revealing a throne of bones.
On the throne, a figure of nothingness seemed to have infinite height, overlooking the world like eternal night.
The old man bowed his head slightly.
