Chapter 18 I really want to grow up quickly! In the blink of an eye, three months passed. During this period, Zhou Qing and Tang San's life continued. study together. Let’s go visit Lingyun Turtle together. Take a shower together. Exercise together. Tang San also made great progress in the transformation of hidden weapons. After three months of sorting and summarizing the soul guide inscriptions on the soul guide fan, and using his own internal force to test them one by one, he finally added them to a brand new dart. This dart no longer looks like a bamboo leaf, but is more like a fan blade, and each dart has a twisted arc. When internal force is applied and it is thrown out, the flight trajectory is in an arc, that is, it will turn, and it is almost silent when passing through the air.
This kind of dart was also named by Tang San: Wind Leaf Dart. "Sure enough! Hidden weapons can become stronger by adding soul guide inscriptions!" Tang San used the method of controlling a crane and catching a dragon to take the still-flying wind leaf dart back to his hand, exclaiming, "Moreover, with the blessing of soul guide inscriptions, hidden weapons are easier to control with internal force... What kind of powerful offensive soul guides will the masters of this world use?" After calming down, Tang San put away the Wind Leaf Dart and prepared to look for Zhou Qing to go with him to see the Lingyun Turtle. However, regarding internal force, Tang San did not intend to tell Zhou Qing, but was going to wait until his martial soul was awakened in the future before telling him - soul power is internal force, so as for the so-called innate soul power, he would definitely have it even if his future martial soul was very poor, because he could cultivate it himself! Now all that’s left is awakening the martial soul. When he arrived at Zhou Qing's house and called out twice, but got no response, Tang San knew that the other party had gone to see the Lingyun Turtle. Over the past three months, when Zhou Qing and Tang San were treating the Lingyun Turtle's shell, they would also bring a blank booklet and record the Lingyun Turtle's daily changes. After three months of treatment, the Lingyun Turtle also became aware of the presence of Zhou Qing and Tang San. Even when it was awake, it would not choose to attack them, but would lie quietly on the shore, allowing Zhou Qing and Tang San to clean the silt, water plants, snails, and insects in its shell and sprinkle it with sweet potato starch. This made Tang San feel that this turtle that had lived for two hundred years had understood human nature and was able to realize that they were helping it, so it did not attack them. But Zhou Qing had different ideas. As a time traveler from modern times, Zhou Qing knows the concept of "symbiotic relationship", such as: rhinoceros and hornbills, clownfish and sea anemones, toothpick birds and crocodiles, etc. The Lingyun turtle and the plant on its back also have a kind of symbiosis, except that they live together in a closer connection, and even the two species become one entity. but. Zhou Qing knew that only when the Lingyun Turtle reached the level of ten thousand years could it completely become one with the plants on its back. This kind of symbiotic relationship must be quite common in the soul beast world. Perhaps, this Lingyun turtle sensed the breath left by him and Tang San when they changed his dressings, and every time it came ashore, fainted, and woke up, it would feel better. It probably instinctively regarded him and Tang San as "creatures" that ate carrion. Of course, Zhou Qing also knew that his guess was inaccurate. After all, Lingyun Turtles were accumulating spiritual power before they reached a thousand years old. Although this one was only two hundred years old, its spiritual power should be much stronger than soul beasts of the same age. In theory, its intelligence should be similar to that of a normal child, and it could recognize its own and Tang San's human identities. But it didn't attack... Zhou Qing doesn't think that it has the wisdom to distinguish between good and evil in human beings. At present, he thinks that the possible reason may be that this Lingyun turtle lives in a human environment. In the original work, there is a rule that does not seem to be a rule: if a transformed soul beast wants to speed up its cultivation, it needs to enter human society.
Since we have become human beings, we naturally need to contact and communicate with others. Humans are a collective, and all kinds of relationships between people are, in the final analysis, a kind of symbiosis. Soul beasts that have transformed into human form may obtain some abstract non-material information in their symbiotic relationship with humans to help them cultivate. Although this Lingyun turtle has never had direct contact with humans, there are many villages around the stream where it lives, so it is inevitably contaminated by human popularity. Perhaps it was for this reason that it was not so wary of Zhou Qing and Tang San. Even when it went to the village near the Holy Spirit Village, it was probably just because it was too "curious" about humans. [Limited to relatively docile soul beasts like the Lingyun Turtle.] Zhou Qing silently added this condition in his heart. When the Lingyun Turtle noticed that Zhou Qing had spread the yellow potato flour for it, it stepped on all fours and swayed a few times. Zhou Qing and Tang San immediately jumped off its back and trotted to the bushes nearby. The Lingyun Turtle did not go into the water either, but slowly crawled onto a large rock nearby to bask in the sun. Over the past three months, this Lingyun turtle has instinctively realized that after Zhou Qing and Tang San applied medicine to it, it cannot go into the water directly. Only by basking in the sun for a while can the body feel more comfortable than before. In the sunlight, the strange plant on the Lingyun turtle's shell became even greener, and it had grown a little taller and even grew a third leaf. "Qing'er, do you know what kind of plant that is?" Tang San asked, looking at the plant. "No." Zhou Qing shook his head. "Half a month ago, an uncle at the entrance of the village went to Nottingham to sell vegetables. I asked him to buy some books on medicine and plants, but none of the books he brought back described this plant." "This kind of plant is probably only accessible to truly powerful spirit masters. Although there is a spirit master academy in Notting City, I heard that the dean is only a second-ring spirit master. The master of the local spirit hall is also a spirit master, so he should not be able to access these." "Moreover, it is said that Douluo Continent has not yet been fully explored by humans. Even the Spirit Hall discovers new spirit beasts every two or three years..." Tang San was like a sponge, absorbing everything Zhou Qing said, and he also developed a strong interest in Douluo Continent. The cultivation of martial soul! The peculiarity of soul beasts! There are so many unknowns in this world, and he really wants to explore it quickly. Different from the plants in the previous life, can the medicinal properties in them be used to make more powerful medicines or poisons? What kind of metal deposits are there in this world? If they are used to make hidden weapons, can they be made more powerful? How many kinds of soul guide inscriptions are there on soul guides? There is also the cultivation of martial soul! Everything is so charming! “I really want to grow up quickly!” Tang San sighed from the bottom of his heart. "Yes!" Zhou Qing also nodded, "I really want to be six years old soon, so that I can awaken my martial spirit." Wuhun! Awaken the innate soul power! This is the foundation for you to realize your dreams yourself! If his innate spirit power is not awakened by then, then my guidance of Tang San over the past few years would at least prevent him from being fooled by Yu Xiaogang... Mashuno is indeed a great soul master, but he has not yet reached the threshold of level 30.
