Chapter 79 78 Seventh Grade

Chapter 79 78. Seventh Grade

"Woof!"

"Woof woof woof!"

At this time, the sound of dogs barking rang out in the snow-white courtyard. A half-human-high black mastiff had a collar on its neck. The rings of the collar were all metal as thick as an arm, and the other side was hung on a large iron pier.

Li Yuan glanced at the black mastiff and said, "It's snowing, are you happy too?"

The black mastiff looked at Li Yuan, with a docile look in his eyes, his mouth split open as if he was laughing "hehe", and his blood-red tongue spitting out "rustling".

This was a small gain for Li Yuan in the black market.

God often doesn't go as planned.

He wanted to find a tank-like monster with a gentle personality, good at reconnaissance, and extremely difficult to be discovered, and could provide assistance and housekeeping services.

Obviously, this was a daydream.

In the past six months, he had not seen a monster that met more than two of the requirements.

And this black monster mastiff was particularly kind to him when he passed by in his true form, so he thought of buying it.

It is not stealthy in action and not docile in character, but at least it is good at reconnaissance and can provide housekeeping services. Moreover, dogs are originally associated with the word "loyalty", which is an extra quality to make up for the "docility".

The three words "housekeeping dog" are not called for nothing.

So, Li Yuan gritted his teeth and spent 400 taels of silver to buy it, of which 100 taels were directly taken from the proprietress, and 300 taels were from Senior Brother Ren.

This demon mastiff is called the Black Rock Demon Mastiff. It is not active and likes to stay in one place. In short, it loves to watch the house. It is extremely sensitive to "hostility" and its sense of smell has been greatly improved compared to ordinary dogs.

Li Yuan once took it to Xiaomo Mountain to hunt a blind bear. He first went to the den to wake up the blind bear, and then gave the blind bear half an hour to escape. Then he took the Black Rock Demon Mastiff and dug out the blind bear in a short while.

When the Black Rock Demon Mastiff came, its comprehensive value was "(10)20~(20)60", but after recuperating for a long time in Li Yuan's house, it has almost recovered.

Li Yuan named it "Xiao Hei".

The reason why it was locked up was not because Xiao Hei was dangerous, nor because Xiao Hei was hostile to the people in Li Yuan's family.

In fact, Xiao Hei had "completely pledged allegiance" to Li Yuan, and it also knew that Yan Yu and Xue Ning were its "mistresses", so it would behave docilely in front of the mistresses on weekdays.

But this was the inner city after all. If the demon mastiff ran out, it would either kill someone or be killed by someone, so it had to be locked up on weekdays.

Because of this, he became a little famous.

Others were amazed to see that this ninth-grade demon beast was docile to him.

Li Yuan only said that when he was a hunter in the past, he had some skills in taming beasts, and he didn't expect that they would work on demon beasts.

As a result, the reputation of "Little Master Li is good at taming beasts" was inexplicably spread.

Li Yuan didn't mind such a small matter, after all, it was within his power.

In addition to the black smoke demon mastiff, Li Yuan also gained two skills and bought two weapons for use after the seventh grade, after all, the weapons of the eighth grade could not exert the power of the seventh grade.

The two weapons cost a total of 96 taels of silver, a new sleeve knife, and a beast bone bow.

And the two skills:

Also called "Searching for Breath", it is an eighth-grade skill, and it is also a useless skill. It has been unavailable for a long time and no one has bought it. I don't know where the person who sells this skill got it from.

This skill is a solitary skill. If you want to practice it, you must first reach the eighth grade realm, and have a ninth-grade or ordinary tracking skill, and this tracking skill must reach the master level.

This requirement is completely nonsense for normal practitioners.

After practicing, it will not improve your own strength, but it will give you an unimaginable sense of smell. In simple terms, it will make you develop a good "dog nose".

Who would learn this for nothing?

But Li Yuan took a fancy to it. He bargained for a long time and directly bargained from the high price of "300 taels of silver" to "100 taels of silver", and then took away the skill.

The other one is called "Chasing the Wind and Piercing the Willow Twelve Linked Arrows", which is also a solitary method of the eighth grade.

The requirements are that the cultivation realm has reached the eighth grade, and has the ninth grade or ordinary shooting skills, and the shooting skills have reached the master level.

Unfortunately, there are more people using knives and swords in Shanbao County, and there are really few people using bows.

And even if you use a bow, it is almost impossible to reach the master level.

Because this "Chasing the Wind and Piercing the Willow Twelve Linked Arrows" lacks the subsequent seventh-grade skills, it has been hanging for a long time and cannot be sold.

So, for some reason, Li Yuan bargained the price from "400 taels of silver" to "150 taels of silver" and bought it.

This monster, two skills and two weapons are all Li Yuan has gained besides the "eighth-grade monster meat".

As for the skills, he has also seen them, but those skills lack follow-ups and are extremely expensive.

During the practice, Li Yuan felt that there was an upper limit to the "types of coexistence of shadow blood". This upper limit is definitely within five, but it will not be three, because Li Yuan can feel that there is still a sense of tolerance in his body. This coexistence upper limit should be either four or five.

He now has two kinds of shadow blood in his body, one can be upgraded to the seventh grade, and the other can only be stuck at the ninth grade, and he needs to use the remaining quota more carefully.

The third skill needs to be at least the sixth grade, and then he will try to use the shadow blood of this sixth grade method to replace the shadow blood of "Hui Liu Gong".

If it succeeds, it proves that the shadow blood in the body can be replaced, and he will not be so restrained in practicing the next technique.

If it fails, then he can only wait quietly, leaving perhaps the last vacancy for the technique with a higher-level subsequent practice method.

This is actually a kind of helplessness for practitioners.

If you don't have a subsequent technique, then don't think about entering a higher realm in this life.

You have reached the seventh grade, but you don't have a sixth-grade technique. At this time, you encounter another inheritance with a sixth-grade technique. You can't practice again because your shadow bone has been determined.

If you are the eighth grade and encounter another inheritance with a sixth-grade technique, you have to honestly start from the beginning, spend time, endure pain, replace the shadow blood, and then switch to practice.

In this world, what determines a person's ultimate achievement, in addition to talent and hard work, is more important, but it is still birth and opportunity.

If you have a good birth, the family inheritance comes with a high-grade technique, then you are on a road that does not need to turn back at all.

Most people, however, are searching and climbing, and where they can finally reach depends on chance.

How unfair is that?

But isn't this the same everywhere?

Li Yuan didn't know if he could exchange shadow blood, so he could only be cautious and didn't dare to learn the skills randomly.

At this time, he stood in the snow.

He didn't hold the booklet of "Soul-Spitting Skill" in his hand, because he had memorized the skill by heart.

"The toad ascends the sky, gathering qi like a mountain. The river flows in all directions, and the soul-spitting moon becomes a bow."

The last step to break into the seventh rank is to spit the soul into the moon.

But if you want to spit the soul, you must first breathe.

Li Yuan looked at the snow falling in the courtyard, suddenly tore off his coat, took off his outer pants, changed into a cheap cloth shirt and cloth pants, then raised his head, took a breath, and caused the wind and snow in the courtyard to roll!

The thousands of long strands of snow-white ice crystals were pulled by some powerful breath and drilled into Li Yuan's body.

The blood was oppressed and began to rush to every inch of the body. The power in the flesh of the eighth-grade monster turned into a kind of "power" at this time, allowing the amplitude of this surge to be larger, to go farther, and to fill the body with shadow blood.

In this process, the blood was slowly discharged, so that a trace of blood red began to appear on Li Yuan's body surface, and this blood red stuck to the cheap cloth clothes, turning the cloth clothes into blood clothes.

In order to break through the seventh grade, Li Yuan had already consumed many cloth clothes.

But this time, it should be the last time.

He held his breath and closed his eyes. The many tiny tracks in the seventh-grade map in his mind had become so proficient that they ran automatically and began to move the shadow blood.

"Hum"

From the nostrils, two wisps of white air shot out like arrows, like the hot air rising from the bellows of the forging iron furnace.

After several times, Li Yuan took another breath.

This time, he was calm for a long time, and only felt that there was a hot fire burning in his body. The originally fragile mortal bones were continuously tempered by this fire and were changing, and the first step.

"Ha!!"

Li Yuan shouted, his black hair dancing wildly, his eyes were like the center of a lightning cloud, shining brightly, and this exhalation was boiling white steam, like a sword out of the furnace, steam rising when it was quenched in water.

At the moment of exhaling, Li Yuan only felt that his whole body strength increased greatly, but after exhaling, the strength quickly fell back. Obviously, the Soul Exhalation Technique has some kind of effect of temporarily increasing the upper limit of strength.

He glanced at the information:

[Name: Li Yuan]

[Added points: 752 points]

[Realm: Seventh level (Bone Refining)]

[Skills: Hui Liu Gong (100/100), Tu Po Gong Seventh level (1/500)]

[Magic power: Immortality]

[Equipment column: Unlocked]

In addition to the original "Skills column", there are more [Grandmaster-level Breath-Seeking Technique (1/160); Chasing the Wind and Piercing the Willow Twelve Linked Arrows (1/160)]

"Finally reached the seventh level, this breakthrough is really difficult."

"Since it has already broken into the seventh level, now. It's time to complete it."

Li Yuan directly clicked the "++" sign on [Tu Po Gong Seventh level (1/500)].

In an instant, he had many more memories. He ate the meat of the eighth-level monster in big mouthfuls, practiced the skills, and devoted himself to practice tirelessly. After five years, he finally felt that the accumulation of qi and blood had reached the upper limit.

Under the tempering of the technique and the nourishment of the shadow blood, the mortal bones in his body have completely changed.

The shadow blood has a source, and it is continuously produced from the shadow bones, so that the shadow blood stays in the body and can no longer be consumed.

The shadow blood produced by the "Hui Liu Gong" is compressed and wrapped, forming a small drop of blood, which settles in his abdominal cavity, as if it is sleeping quietly, but allows him to control it.

Li Yuan closed his eyes and carefully experienced the changes.

After a long time, he smiled and opened his eyes, and glanced at the information:

[Name: Li Yuan]

[Added points: 251 points]

[Realm: Seventh Grade (Bone Refining)]

[Technique: Hui Liu Gong (100/100), Tu Po Gong Seventh Grade (500/500)]

"It's time to practice the third style of the Spring and Autumn Sword [Yue Yuan], so that I can exert my greatest strength."

Ten days later.

Li Yuan glanced at his own information.

[Name: Li Yuan]

[Added points: 321 points]

[Skill: Spring and Autumn Sword, Grade 7 - Leaping into the Abyss (Primary) (1/10)]

"Top it up."

Li Yuan clicked the "++" after the skill several times, and directly jumped through "Primary", "Intermediate", "Advanced", "Expert", and reached the perfection of "Grandmaster".

The points were instantly deducted by 310 points, and the skill status changed to [Spring and Autumn Sword 7th Grade - Yueyuan (Grandmaster Level) (160/160)].

Li Yuan held the sword in his sleeve and glanced at his overall strength: 180~278.

He closed his eyes slightly, thinking about Tiesha, the strongest man of the Blood Sword Sect.

The strength of Tiesha seemed to be "215~235".

And the weapon used by Tiesha must be better than the ordinary 7th grade weapon he found.

Suddenly, he felt a little more secure.

"It's time to see the teacher."

Li Yuan put away the sword in his sleeve, patted Xiaohei's head, and said, "Look after the house, I'm going out for a while."

Xiaohei made a coquettish sound of "woohoo" and looked at his master with admiration.
