"Dog Dragon? It's what I thought, a dog and a dragon..." Li Xiuchang suspected that he was mistaken.
"That's right." Fire Sparrow King nodded, "It's what you think."
This is somewhat outrageous...
White tigers and lions are, at least, cats.
Zhuque and peacock are also "birds".
How do green dragons and dogs get paired together?
This xp is really tricky!
The topic brought up by Li Xiuchang successfully aroused Fire Sparrow King's interest in conversation. The aloof image he had maintained just now could no longer be maintained. He started to talk eloquently and talked about Qinglong's romantic history.
"Qinglong Lineage Longding is prosperous, which is not comparable to our other three families. Putting our three families, Suzaku, Xuanwu, and Baihu, together, we can't compare to even 10% of their Qinglong Lineage..."
"The ancestors of our three families have dozens of descendants. Qinglong has thousands or even tens of thousands of descendants!"
"After so many years, many descendants of Qinglong have died, most of them died under Immortal Tribulation. However, the emaciated Qinglong is bigger than a sparrow, and the number of Qinglong Lineage members is still unimaginable..."
Li Xiuchang took a breath. "Thousands of children? Senior Qinglong is really busy!"
Fire Sparrow King coughed. "It's because he left early, otherwise this number would have doubled if he had lived to this day. And dragons give birth to thousands of sons, each of whom is different. Do you understand what I mean?"
"This... means ten thousand children for ten thousand mothers?"
"Smart!" Fire Sparrow King showed appreciation.
Li Xiuchang suddenly felt that Immortal Tribulation this thing is quite necessary, at least it treats every living being equally.
If it weren't for Immortal Tribulation, this world might have been occupied by the Qinglong clan.
Having become familiar with Fire Sparrow King, Li Xiuchang asked about the test rules and rewards of this level.
Fire Sparrow King is very easy to talk to people who look pleasing to the eye, and explained all the test rules and precautions for this level in detail.
As expected, this level is a test of Fire Dao's understanding.
But unlike the first two levels, Suzaku has no skills and will not give Li Xiuchang the chance to understand the great path through skills.
There are many skills related to Fire Dao, such as alchemy, weapon refining, spiritual cooking... as long as it can be used for fire, they are all involved.
But unfortunately, Suzaku was not interested in any of this.
In the words of Fire Sparrow King, his father Suzaku is a violent maniac who spends all day tinkering with the strongest flames. The ultimate goal is to create a flame that can burn the world.
Therefore, this level is to let them watch the process of Suzaku creating various flames in the illusion, to understand Fire Dao.
"Senior Bird King, what is the extra reward for this level? How can I get it?" Li Xiuchang asked.
Fire Sparrow King said, "The extra reward is a Fire Seed that my father left behind."
"Fire Seed?" Li Xiuchang was a little confused.
To say that it is a powerful flame, just like the Immortal Burning Grass flame, it should exist in the form of flame.
What does Fire Seed mean?
Fire Sparrow King explained, "It was a kind of flame that my father cultivated back then. He thought it had unlimited potential, but he died before the cultivation was successful. Therefore, this semi-finished flame was passed down in the form of Fire Seed.
"Now this flame continues to maintain the shape of Fire Seed, and there is still room for growth. Once you awaken it, it will be completely finalized."
Li Xiuchang nodded and roughly understood that it was a prototype of a flame that could grow. It was certainly not easy to be spotted by Suzaku back then.
Fire Sparrow King continued, "If you want to get this Fire Seed, you must pass the test left by our Suzaku clan. Originally, we wanted to test your ability to cultivate flames, but we thought that you trialists may not major in Fire Dao, and Cultivation Level is also average, so we don't expect you to cultivate powerful flames.
"So we changed our mind and hid Fire Seed in a ball of flame. If you want to get Fire Seed, you must have the ability to enter the flame and escape intact."
"It's just 'taking chestnuts from the fire'." Li Xiuchang felt a little relieved.
It's not that I feel confident, but I feel like there is a glimmer of hope.
If he is asked to cultivate flames, he has no experience, so this extra reward will probably be useless.
But just asking him to take things out of the flames, there are still ways to think of, there is room for maneuver.
Next, Li Xiuchang and the others repeated the steps of the previous two levels, placed the blood beads on the stone platform, and entered the illusion to accept the test.
As Li Xiuchang expected, without skills as a medium, allowing him to directly understand Fire Dao would indeed result in limited gains.
He is somewhat talented at Fire Dao, but not outstanding.
Therefore, in this level, Li Xiuchang gained the least understanding of the great path since the three levels.
Qinglong, White Tiger, and Suzaku are three tests, each with less gain than the last, but fortunately there is no competition in this level.
His four teammates had an astonishing defeat on Fire Dao, so Li Xiuchang became the general among the dwarves, and they won the reward of Suzaku Essence Blood.
Li Xiuchang and Blood Pill have also become intertwined in three colors: green, gold and red.
"Senior Bird King, is there anything Xuanwu Pass behind you should pay attention to?" Li Xiuchang asked before leaving.
Fire Sparrow King and Li Xiuchang had a good chat, and they answered readily:
"The next level is that old turtle Xuanjue. He is a good-tempered one, so you don't have to worry. Besides, there is also a little turtle in your team who has Xuanwu blood. He will definitely take care of him."
Li Xiuchang thanked him, relaxed, and took his teammates to the next level to accept the test.
Li Xiuchang When they arrived at Xuanwu Pass, the old turtle named Xuanjue was taking a nap in his shell.
When it felt like someone was coming, it stretched out its long neck until it almost reached Li Xiuchang's faces.
This neck is really long...Li Xiuchang found that this turtle was different from what he thought.
The neck is terrifyingly long, and the head doesn't look like a turtle, but like a snake.
It feels like a snake growing inside a turtle shell.
Li Xiuchang speculates that it should be the offspring of Xuanwu and the snake demon.
"I didn't expect that descendants of my clan would come here."
Xuanjue's eyes fell on Wen Wenwen, showing a friendly smile.
Wen Wen has Xuanwu bloodline. Although it is rare, there is no doubt that he is a descendant of Xuanwu.
Wenwen was also very sensible, and said obediently, "I have met my ancestors."
"Okay, okay, good boy." Xuanjue smiled from ear to ear.
At this level, Li Xiuchang left the communication work to Wenwen. In the previous three levels, he was communicating with the examiner. Now facing Xuanjue, Wenwen had an inherent advantage.
Xuanjue was so excited that Xuanjue was very excited. Chen Changsheng had probably never seen such a well-behaved and sensible person in his life.
Seeing that Wenwen and Xuanjue had established a good relationship, Li Xiuchang took the opportunity to ask Wenwen for more information.
At this level, there is no doubt that the test is Water Dao.
If Fire Dao from Zhuque Pass, Li Xiuchang are the only talented ones among their teammates.
Then Xuanwu Pass's Water Dao, there are some teammates who are good at this.
As a turtle beast and with Xuanwu bloodline, Water Dao's talent couldn't be any worse.
Jing Jing, as a sea beast, also has Divine Beast Bloodline, and he will major in Water Dao in the future.
Li Xiuchang has no special talent in the Water Path, so this will be his most dangerous level, and he may miss the Xuanwu Essence Blood reward.
But it's not hopeless.
I learned from Xuanjue that Xuanwu is different from the other three holy beasts. He is a versatile boss.
Among the other holy beasts, only Qinglong has the unique skill of Spirit Plant. Baihu's weapon-refining skills are just a hobby, and Suzaku doesn't know anything.
But Xuanwu, he likes to draw little talismans when he has nothing to do, and when he feels that his life is long, he also makes little divination.
It is said that Xuanwu's tortoise shell is born with mysterious lines, which contain the principles of heaven and earth and the secrets of the world.
Therefore, Xuanwu relied on studying the patterns on his tortoise shell and embarked on the path of Talisman Master and Gua Master.
It's impossible to say how proficient Xuanwu is in these two areas. However, his foundation is too good. God will reward you with food. If you just learn something from the tortoise shell and draw it on the talisman, it will be your own creation Treasure Talisman.
Occasionally, I feel something in my heart and use my turtle shell to divine, and I can get a glimpse of the high level Heavenly Secrets.
I can only say that the tortoise shell is too powerful.
This is like Divination Arts of Li Xiuchang. To put it bluntly, he doesn't even know if he can be a first-level fortune teller, but the upper limit of his fortune telling level is terrifyingly high.
What he calculated may not be possible even for Senior Brother Gui, who has a sufficient lifespan.
Li Xiuchang and Xuanwu are both talented players on Divination Arts.
In addition, Xuanwu also has some achievements in other skills, such as Ling Chu... It is said that he is good at making soup.
Li Xiuchang happens to be a versatile person, so he can only hope to resonate with Xuanwu in certain skills, so that he can understand Water Dao more with the help of skills.
"Xiuchang." Wenwen suddenly sent a message to Li Xiuchang, "This turtle will release water at this level. Xuanwu Essence Blood is not of much use to me. In addition, this turtle already has Xuanwu bloodline. If I absorb Xuanwu Essence Blood, what if I am restricted by Xuanwu bloodline?"
"Good brother!" Li Xiuchang was moved, saying that this meant giving Xuanwu Essence Blood to him.
Indeed, Li Xiuchang has already collected three kinds of four Sacred Beast Blood Essence, and only the final blood of Xuanwu is needed to complete it.
It would be a pity to fail at this step.
Wenwen has decided to let go, so Li Xiuchang's only competitor is Jing Jing.
As for Golden Horn and Golden Falcon, what these two guys should be worried about is whether they can get the true blood reward in this level.
"By the way, ancestor, what is the extra reward for this level?" Wenwen asked on behalf of Li Xiuchang.
Xuanjue stretched its long neck to the ceiling and said:
"The extra reward given by our Xuanwu Lineage is a rubbing version of the ancestor's tortoise shell."
"It's so precious!"
Li Xiuchang and others were shocked, knowing how precious the patterns on the basalt tortoise shell were.
Xuanjue's long neck swayed from side to side, which meant shaking its head, and it said, "Of course it is only a partial rubbing. The patterns on my father's tortoise shell are so mysterious that some parts can't even be seen by ordinary people, let alone rubbed.
"Some lines are simply indescribable, impossible to describe, and impossible to reproduce. What we have printed is only a small part of them. Of course, if you can study this part thoroughly, it will be enough for you to understand many mysteries."
The rubbing version of the basalt tortoise shell instantly became Li Xiuchang's most anticipated extra reward.
This tortoise shell can not only be understood by oneself, but can also be shared with the neighboring brothers, especially brothers Senior Brother Chen Changsheng and Gui Wuyan. One of them is proficient in Talisman Dao, and the other is studying Divination Arts, so they should both be able to gain good results.
"Then how do you get this reward? "Li Xiuchang asked.
"The tortoise shell rubbing is hidden inside a tortoise shell. If you can break the tortoise shell, you will naturally get a reward."
Li Xiuchang is a little surprised, why does it sound like a test of attack ability? This is different from what Xuanwu is good at.
Xuanwu has always had a stable image and prefers defense. How can he properly test the destructive ability of the trialer?
"Okay, you guys start the test as soon as possible." Xuanjue urged.
Li Xiuchang and others came to the stone platform and prepared to enter the illusion.
But at this moment, a steady voice suddenly came from Li Xiuchang's ears:
"Xuanjue gave me the answer!"
Li Xiuchang remained calm and sent a message to ask what was going on.
It turned out that Xuanjue was biased, and he was sure to be a descendant of their Xuanwu clan, so he really gave him extra care.
Before entering the test, Xuanjue first instilled some additional insights from Water Dao into Wenwen.
This is equivalent to revealing the questions and answers in advance before the exam, which is pure cheating!
Li Xiuchang could only pretend not to know, and after a while, Wenwen passed on those Water Dao insights to Li Xiuchang.
These great insights are equivalent to the various insights on Preaching Ranking. After unlocking, they cannot be directly used for personal use. They still need to be understood by themselves.
But in the next test, it is already a huge advantage.
Others also need to extract insights from Xuanwu's operations in the illusion and then understand them.
Li Xiuchang is equivalent to skipping the "extraction" part and directly comprehending the insights already in your mind.
This time, he felt completely confident.
If you can't win by cheating, why not play ball!
Soon, Li Xiuchang entered the illusion.
He was not in a hurry to comprehend those Water Dao insights from Xuanjue, but wanted to try first to see how much he could comprehend.
I saw a giant turtle stepping into the water, and one claw fell, which was enough to stop the ocean.
It is inappropriate to say that he is a turtle. There is a giant snake coiled on his back.
The turtle and snake are connected into one body, which is Xuanwu.
Li Xiuchang looked at it for a long time, but he couldn't figure out whether Xuanwu was swimming or doing something in the sea, let alone comprehending anything Water Dao.
He is not a stubborn person, and he decisively comprehended the Daoist insights stolen from his mind.
However, he was also multitasking and still paid attention to Xuanwu's movements.
Xuanwu makes waves in the sea, sometimes controlling huge waves and setting off tsunamis, sometimes suppressing waves, making the sea calm as a mirror.
The entire sea of water is just a toy in Xuanwu's hands.
As if he was tired of playing, Xuanwu rose into the sky, flew to the clouds, randomly created a handful of water, threw a few fish in, and started making soup!
"It involves Spirit Chef Arts, there's something going on."
Li Xiuchang was concentrating on observing the process of Xuanwu making soup, and suddenly caught a glimpse of Xuanwu's back armor.
Previously, when they were making waves in the sea, there was a giant snake on the turtle's back, so Li Xiuchang had no chance to peek at Xuanwu's back armor.
Now that Xuanwu had calmed down and started making soup, he could finally see the lines on the tortoise's shell.
Suddenly, Li Xiuchang suddenly understood that these lines on the Xuanwu back armor are the most important and precious things in this level!
