This idea is very strange. Lu Yuan frowned. He did have some extraordinary life materials on hand, such as fire lizards, unicorn horns (he had eaten them secretly), ice unicorn cores, etc. He had eaten these things. But he had never felt the so-called "qi"! If it was so easy to get "martial arts", humans and the lizardmen of the Rize civilization should have discovered this method long ago. "It should require the existence of a spirit, right? That is, the soul of the monster." The old cat suddenly said. "Qi is the medium between the soul and the body. If a creature dies, the qi will dissipate very quickly." "That's right. We have a special profession of 'pre-soul' who can see the soul and seal it." "At the beginning, everyone wanted to get martial arts by swallowing souls."
"Let the spirit possess a person, and you can feel the 'qi'." Shakaner said, "But the 'qi' of many monsters is often too violent. A slight rush will turn people into fools." "So it's not easy to get martial arts. Nine out of ten will fail." Lu Yuan nodded slightly, and he understood the general idea. In other words, you have to let the soul of an animal possess a human to learn "martial arts". "Isn't this letting the soul of another animal take over your body?" Lu Yuan thought about it and couldn't stand it. It's normal that humans haven't discovered this method, which has a high mortality rate and is a bit perverted. As for Lu Yuan's line of work, there is only one person who can see the soul, Miss Conch. Lu Yuan himself could not see, nor could he affect the "spirit"... He could see the soul when his soul was out of his body, but he did not have the ability to seal the soul. "So how did you get martial arts? The failure rate is so high." He Kaner said with a little hoarseness: "It is indeed very difficult to learn martial arts at the beginning. You will lose your wisdom and become wild at any time." "But later I found that the soul after death can actually help learn martial arts..." "And the success rate will be higher, and it can even be reused... So, the soul of the ancestors is the foundation of a village." Lu Yuan was stunned and swallowed hard. This method seems a bit evil in the eyes of earthlings. But for the people of the Sandy tribe, it is a very natural thing. After all, the social environment determines morality. Everyone does this, so there is nothing to be taboo about. Many old people will let the "pre-spirit" peel off their souls before they die, and carry out a series of purifications to remove all memories. Then pass on their own "martial arts" to their descendants. In this way, the number of "martial arts" will increase. This is also the main reason why this civilization developed the culture of "ancestor worship" - all the power is passed down from ancestors, so shouldn't it be worshipped?
But Lu Yuan was silent as never before. He finally understood why this civilization did not develop technology. Because once this kind of thing happens, it is obvious that the strong will plunder the weak. If killing can rob "martial arts", the huge benefits will obviously make people take risks. This leads to long-term internal friction in this civilization, and it is difficult to give birth to real technology. "Your civilization has a lot of wars, right?" "Haha..." These people in Shali smiled awkwardly. "It's a very interesting method." The old cat whispered, "But there should be a lot of technical details in the middle. Old Lu, are you going to learn the skills of form and qi now?" "You are already full now. If you learn another one, won't your soul solidify again?" Lu Yuan was silent for a moment and asked, "Do you have the phenomenon of soul solidification?" "What is... soul solidification?" "It means that after learning a lot of martial arts, your strength suddenly increases a lot, and then you can't learn anymore." "Yes, yes, yes! That's called the innate grandmaster!!" Shakaner slapped his head and said with some envy: "After learning about six to nine martial arts, you may become an innate grandmaster , then the strength will be enhanced in all aspects! " "After that, you can no longer learn." He sighed again: "Alas, the difficulty of learning each martial art is constantly increasing. Even with the inheritance of ancestors, it is easy to be turned into an idiot by that anger." "You must practice the 'basic body refining technique' to a certain level before you can learn one more martial art." "It's difficult for a small tribe like ours. There hasn't been a congenital strongman for hundreds of years. We can only learn what we have." "And those with outstanding qualifications on the side of the empire can also plan martial arts to maximize their combat power and then break through the congenital." This conversation feels like a chicken talking to a duck. Lu Yuan's side is scientism, while the sand civilization is pure empiricism. Terms like "congenital" make people feel creepy. But the overall information can match. "After breaking through the innate level, what about continuing to learn?" Shakan'er had no way of answering such a tricky question. With a bitter face, he thought for a long time and shook his head: "The amount of learning is determined by God. Once you break through the innate level, you can't learn anymore." "I don't remember any exceptions." This answer also matched Lu Yuan's cognition. "Wait... yes, no!" He said stutteringly, "Some simple martial arts can be simulated with basic body refining techniques. But I just heard about it, I don't know how it works." Lu Yuan and Lao Mao looked at each other. According to the description of the people in the sand, the essence of the form and qi skills is the operation of "qi".
So it can be simulated with a high-level "supernormal fire"-because the supernormal fire is a relatively advanced qi skill. But the level required for this "simulation" may be relatively high, which is not what he can do now. "This news is still quite useful...what the supernormal fire can do, the eternal fire should also be able to do." He asked again: "Show me your martial arts?" The militia captain nodded and stood up: "Harden!" The muscles all over his body suddenly tightened, and his whole body was like a piece of iron. "Harden" is a form skill that can greatly improve the ability to resist attacks, including the resistance of internal organs. Lu Yuan did not have the ability to see through, and after looking for a long time, he could not see anything. [I can... I can barely see the flow of air.] Hai Luo suddenly said, [It's just a little complicated. I don't think you can simulate it now. I'll draw a picture for you.] Lu Yuan complained in his heart: "You are really too omnipotent, right?" Turning his head and asking: "Then, what about the Empire?" "The Empire is a great country that has been passed down for thousands of years. Its full name is the Great Empire of Mavila." "There are only a few hundred thousand people in our Shali clan. The Empire may have a population of tens of millions or hundreds of millions." "There are so many masters and countless strong people." "Most of the knowledge is scraps that have been passed down from the Empire." "Alas, I don't know where the Empire ranks when it comes to Pangu Continent..." Lu Yuan pondered for a moment, and finally chose not to tell the truth... It's better to leave a memory for the other party. After chatting for a few minutes, Sha Kaner presented an ancient booklet with some words from a foreign civilization written on it. It was gilded and very luxurious. According to him, it was won in the Empire Colosseum. Talking about this, he was proud: "I killed a wolf scorpion!" "Even if I die, this booklet alone is enough to be offered to the ancestral temple." There are also many pictures in the pages, including the structure of the acupuncture points of the human body, some strange and bizarre symbols, and one of the pictures even depicts a small dot in the human brain, shining like the sun. This is obviously the extraordinary fire seed! Lu Yuan's heart beat wildly, and it was easy to find it after searching for it everywhere. This... This is actually the method of practicing the extraordinary fire seed? He couldn't wait to turn to the next page, and it really depicted the breakthrough method of the extraordinary fire seed! Intelligent life always moves in the direction of the least effort. The method recorded in this booklet is also to open up a "lower world". Compared with the method of the Meda civilization, there are some small differences in details.
But the overall idea is the same. Lu Yuan turned to the next page with trembling hands. Sure enough, there is more content!! There were complicated pictures and ant-sized words on it. That was... a way to make further breakthroughs? ! A way to break through from level three to level four! Lu Yuan was stunned for a moment, and he couldn't help but feel a little lost and a little sad in his heart. The so-called impermanence of fate is just like this. He went from the Meda civilization to the Rize civilization, and then to the spacecraft of the Rize civilization. Then to the Green Civilization of the Sky City... He was desperately looking for a way to make further breakthroughs, but he couldn't get it... Sometimes, he was really anxious. He was already level three in more than a thousand days, and now it's almost six thousand days and he's still level three! But there's no point in being anxious, it's just mental exhaustion. Unexpectedly, in this corner, a very weak civilization that hasn't yet given birth to the buds of technology got it without any effort! Lu Yuan sighed and looked at the clouds in the sky. He always felt that his efforts seemed meaningless and not as good as luck... He was just a little bit away from becoming a "collapse artist". Fortunately, this information came not too late. It was just right for him. Lu Yuan said in a heavy tone: "This book is very important to me. I owe you a favor. I need to borrow it for a while." "If you need any help from me, just tell me." The people of the Sandy Clan breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Lu Yuan finally say this. They gave so much, didn't they just want a promise from this great master? Of course, a promise is just a promise. If you push it too far, you will only suffer. So these people were also thinking about what they should ask Lu Yuan to do. Is it to defeat a monster, find some water. Or... something else? ...
