Murder Master

Chapter 150 The spiritual imbalance of the ghost refiner

There was silence in the study, and a miserable green ghost fire burned quietly between the hands of the birds. He did not light the lamp, and the green flames barely illuminated the environment in the study. It was gloomy and ghostly, and the atmosphere was extremely strange. There is a thin layer of black frost on the ground, on the desk, doors and windows, and the temperature is cold.

The spiritual core of the black mud spirit fish was between his palms, slowly rolling in his ghost fire, releasing a trace of black gas, drilling into his skin and into his mouth and nose.

The black mud spirit fish is a dark spirit beast, which can also be called a warcraft, and its spiritual core can also be called a magic core. However, it was a popular name in the era of fierce ghosts more than 2,000 years ago. Nowadays, except for ghost refiners and few knowledgeable people, know this name, most of them are still called spirit beasts and spiritual cores. This is just a difference in terms of title, and the essence remains unchanged.

Refining the virtual is the most basic way and the only way for the ghost refiner to improve the ghost refining power. In other words, even the magic core of the warcraft cannot improve his ghost refining power.

However, although the ghost refining power of Bainiao Chong cannot be directly improved, the magic core of Xuanni Lingyu is also extremely beneficial to Bainiao Chong.

The ghost refiner practices the power of the soul. The stronger the soul, the weaker the body will be. This is also a strange circle that ghost refiners can't get rid of. Now it is the same, and so are the ghost refiners in the era of fierce ghosts more than 2,000 years ago. The reason is very simple. People are born with both a soul and a body. The two are coordinated. The human body is growing, and the soul is also growing. The two are always at a balance point. Once the soul becomes very strong, the balance with the body will be broken, and the stronger the soul will be, but the weaker the body will be.

Ghost warriors are different from heavenly warriors. They are based on the cultivation of body muscles, muscles and bones, and then practice the innate power with Dantian Qihai. It is to strengthen the body first, and then practice the will and soul, so there will be no great imbalance. Ghost refiners often can't practice the innate power, but ghost refiners also have ways to make up for the weakness of the body's weakness, that is, take all kinds of elixirs, refine the magic core, and strengthen the structure of the body with the nutrition of the elixir and the dark energy of the magic core.

In the past, Bainiao Chong didn't have much feeling. He did not feel that after his soul power, that is, after the ghost refining power became strong, his body became weak, but as his ghost refining power cultivation became higher and higher, this feeling was slowly reflected. In fact, it's not that his body is weak and sick, but when the ghost power becomes stronger, the body has not been strengthened enough. In contrast, it has become weak.

This kind of strengthening cannot be compensated by simple physical exercise. In fact, there is no physical exercise that can match the strengthening degree of the body with the ghost refiners in the ghost village, reaching the natural balance between the soul and body of normal people.

The ghost village can already feel the incongruity between the body and soul. What if it reaches the end of the ghost village, or even the ghost city?

The magic core of this black mud fish came at the right time.

The black mud spirit fish is a dark beast. It feeds on rotten corpses, uses venom as drinking water, and absorbs the dark energy between heaven and earth. These dark energy is absorbed and gathered in the magic core, which is equivalent to condensing a big tonic pill for hundreds of birds. Refining the dark energy in it can strengthen muscles and bones and strengthen muscles.

A trace of dark energy penetrated into his skin, and the cold energy flowed through his whole body, from the blood vessels, from the bone marrow, from every cell. At this moment, he is like in his mother's womb, absorbing the energy that can make his body grow and become powerful.

With the loss of dark energy, the magic core of the black mud spirit fish has become smaller and smaller, and the dark luster has also weakened. Unlike its changes, it absorbs its dark energy, and the bones of the hundred birds make a crackling sound, just like stir-fried beans in an iron pot. His muscles are also like a frog's belly, agitating and jumping again and again, showing an explosive sense of strength.

However, there is a limit to everything. Just after refining for half an hour, Bai Niao Chong felt that his body began to be hot, and his blood vessels rose one by one. It felt as if it could burst at any time, which was very uncomfortable. However, his soul did not feel any pain at all. On the contrary, the stronger the body became, the higher the sense of balance, so it gave him a very pleasant feeling and gave him the desire to continue refining.

If it continues, it's not a good thing, but a bad thing.

With one thought, Bainiao Chong used Tianshi Zhenxin to destroy the idea of continuing to refine the magic core. At this time, he suddenly found that some capillaries had ruptured on his skin, oozing red blood.

"It's so close. Fortunately, there is Tianshi Zhenxinshu to suppress the heart demon, otherwise it won't necessarily refine itself this time." Bai Niao rushed a long sigh of relief and ended the state of Tianshi Zhenxin. Looking at the magic core in his hand, he found that a magic nucleus the size of a pigeon egg was one-third smaller, and the dark ink-like color was also a little dimmed.

A magic core in the early stage of the sky can be refined three times, but the strengthening of the body is very limited, and the price paid is not small. Thinking that with the improvement of ghost refining power in the future, this imbalance between body and soul will be more serious, and Bai Niao Chong can't help frowning deeply. After all, the dark monsters are extremely rare. It is extremely lucky to get the magic core of the black mud fish. How can you expect to get it one after another to meet the needs of physical strengthening?

"Forget it, how can there be a smooth way to practice? What's more, I have come to the road of dark practice. There must be all kinds of difficulties ahead, and there are continuous dangers. I have to face them with an optimistic attitude. Strengthening the body is just one of the difficulties. I must overcome it. Bai Niao thought silently in his heart and corrected his mentality.

After a rest for a while, the burning sensation of the body disappeared, and the soreness of the muscles was relieved. Soon, everything returned to normal. Bai Niaochong felt that he was extremely energetic at this moment, and his body was also full of strength. The strength of the body is increased, and the ability to use ghost refining power will also be improved accordingly. It's like poking a bowl with chopsticks and an iron bar. With the same force, it is difficult for chopsticks to puncture the bowl, but iron bars can pierce. For him, the body without strengthening is chopsticks, and the body after strengthening is an iron bar.

If the hundred birds use the ghost fist ice drill in the current state, it is stronger than before, and this is in the same ghost refining realm, which is the difference.

A crisp sound suddenly came. The hundred birds that had just put away the magic core flashed to the window and drove in the direction of the sound from the cracks in the window.

The night is not as bright as the stars and moon, and it looks unusually dark. The ground and roof are covered with white ice and snow, which is the biggest headache for those night walkers. The snow will make the people who sneak at night visible. However, the hundred birds rushed to the opposite roof and the courtyard outside the window. Both places were normal, and there was no trace of the night walker.

"Is it an illusion? What happened during the day made me too nervous and vigilant? After observing for a while and listening for a while, he still did not find any suspicious targets. Bainiao asked himself in his heart.

Wh-h-h-hh! Just then, the sound of a dense crossbow suddenly sounded. Hundreds of birds subconsciously squatted and hid under the wall. At the same time, several fine steel crossbows entered through the window. One plunged into the desk and pierced the palm-thick board. The remaining few plunged into the ground, leaving only the feather tail!

Such a powerful crossbow will be shot through even if it is wearing steel armor! Ordinary people can't have such a sharp weapon at all. Judging from the direction of the arrow, there is one on the front and two on the left and right sides. At a glance at the arrow, Bai Niao Chong's heart had already determined the general direction of the assassin. There is no arrow in the back direction, but it doesn't mean it's not. The reason why they didn't take action was that they were not within their attack range. However, I've seen it just now. There is no one in the direction of shooting anger at all?

Bainiao Chong raised his head from under the window again and opened out through the cracks in the window. At this moment, the sound of a string of crossbow flying came. He hurriedly bent down again and hid behind the wall. Fortunately, the study used for practice is a stone wall, which is up to one foot thick. No matter how powerful those crossbows are, they can't penetrate such a stone wall.

At the moment when I looked up just now, I saw a white shadow moving in the direction of the crossbow from the front. In fact, a little bright light came into the line of sight, and then the crossbow shot.

"No wonder the people who can't see them turned out to be in disguised clothes and cleverly integrated with Bai Xue!" Bai Niao Chong suddenly figured it out, but his mood became heavy. "These guys are good at camouflage and assassination. I'm afraid they are not ordinary killers, but a trained killer team. I'm in their encirclement. Such a crossbow is fast, strong, and can't be touched hard. But if you always hide like this, it's not a way. In case they hurt the innocent, won't it involve those disciples of Baicaomen?

As soon as he glanced at a piece of cut black mud spirit fish skin on the desk, Bai Niao Chong soon had an idea in his heart. He rolled down from the wall under the window and went under the desk, grabbed the fish skin and returned the same way. He knocked open the window and suddenly unfolded the fish skin, raising his hands and blocking the window. With such movements, his body has never been exposed to the shooting range of those assassins, and he has always used the stone wall as a shelter to hide.

He is a careful person. When the black mud spirit fish is alive, the fish skin makes him invulnerable, but that's when he is alive. Now that it is dead, whether the fish skin can block the shooting of these crossbows still needs to be experimented by yourself. Without actual verification, he will not rashly expose himself to the opponent's strong crossbow shooting range.

Whew! Five more crossbows came, all pierced on the fish skin. Through the slightly transparent fish skin, hundreds of birds clearly saw five clusters of sparks splashing out. Five crossbows came with strong force, shaking his arms, but failed to break the fish skin. After being pricked on the fish skin, all five crossbows fell out of the window.

Useful! None of you want to go back alive!" A cold light flashed in the eyes of Bai Niao Chong. He has always assassinated others, but this time he was touched by others to assassinate him, which made his murderous intention even stronger.

With his legs bent and his hands holding the posture of opening the fish skin, hundreds of birds jumped out of the window.

He was killed just now, and now he is killing.
