Chapter 40 A Weird Seed

   "Things are simple."

  The white-haired old man reached out and took out a face-sized flower pot from his sleeve.

   This is a flowerpot carved from white jade, which contains purple-black soil. Just looking at it from a distance, one can feel the abundant spiritual power contained in the soil.

   "During your promotion assessment in the Hall of Sinong, I noticed that your provocation technique is extraordinary."

  The white-haired old man took out another jade box from his sleeve, stretched out his hand to open it, and carefully took out a shriveled seed from the jade box.

   "What I want you to do is to stimulate this seed, that's all."

  The white-haired old man put the jade flowerpot on the ground, and handed the shriveled seed to Xu Ke, "Don't worry, even if you fail, I won't take my anger out on you."

Speaking of this, the white-haired old man let out a long sigh, "I have practiced my triggering technique to perfection, but it still doesn't work. I came to you just in case. You can cast the spell, but if it doesn't work, then It is also my life."

  Is it just a seed?

  Xu Ke secretly breathed a sigh of relief, this is not a big problem, it can be resolved.

  As for the matter of breaking through the limit of the exposure trigger technique, that's out of the question.

  This seed must be very precious, definitely a great treasure. When Xu Ke saw this seed, he knew that he had no room to shirk.

   "In this way, the disciple will give it a try."

  Xu Ke bowed his hands to the white-haired old man, and carefully took the shriveled seed.

"very good!"

  The white-haired old man nodded with a smile, picked up the white jade flower pot, and presented it in front of Xu Ke, "Come on, plant it, and then cast the motivating technique with all your strength."

"clear."

  Xu Ke nodded, picked up the seeds, and carefully planted them into the flowerpot, into the purple-black soil.

   Immediately, Xu Ke took a deep breath, and slowly reached out and pointed at the seed.

   At this moment, the field was silent.

  The white-haired old man held his breath, with a very nervous expression on his face, staring straight at Xu Ke's fingertips, as if he didn't even dare to breathe, for fear of disturbing Xu Ke.

  I'll go, why is the atmosphere so solemn? I'm a little nervous.

  Xu Ke secretly complained, and with a thought, he activated the triggering technique.

  In the dantian, the circulating spiritual power poured into the "true talisman of the triggering technique" and transformed into vigorous wood attribute spiritual power.

   Immediately, this wood-attribute spiritual power poured into the meridians from the dantian, and flowed into the fingertips along the meridians with the movement trajectory and frequency of the spiritual power of the triggering technique.

  A blue light flickered at Xu Ke's fingertips!

  The next moment, Xu Ke's fingertips touched the shriveled seed, and the vigorous wood attribute spiritual power quickly merged into the seed.

  At this moment, Xu Ke also sensed the condition of this shriveled seed by following the spiritual induction.

  This thing...can it really live?

  In Xu Ke's spiritual induction, the inside of this seed is like a dry and dead land, and there is no vitality at all.

  The vigorous wood attribute spiritual power released by the triggering technique melted into this dry and dead land, just like a bowl of water sprinkled into the desert, and disappeared in a blink of an eye.

  However, since I did it, I must do my best. As for the result... I have tried my best.

  Xu Ke has been driving the spiritual power to run, maintaining the continuous casting of the "provoking technique", and constantly pouring spiritual power into the shriveled seeds.

  Then...Xu Ke's spiritual power on the fourth level of Qi training is being consumed rapidly, and this "bottomless pit" cannot be filled at all.

   "Senior, my spiritual power is not enough!"

  Xu Ke quickly explained the current situation to the white-haired old man.

   "Don't worry, the old man is already prepared!"

As he said that, the white-haired old man waved his sleeves and spilled hundreds of pill bottles, which were all piled up at Xu Ke's feet, "This is the 'Buyuan Pill', which can instantly restore spiritual power. You can use it, and you can still use it up after you use it up." have."

"good!"

   Xu Ke nodded, reached out and grabbed a pill bottle, took out a Buyuan Pill and stuffed it into his mouth. The elixir melted in the mouth, and a majestic spiritual power poured into the body like a wave.

  Damn it, the medicine is so powerful?

Xu Ke hurriedly operated the "Small Five Elements Hunyuan Zhenjue" to transfer this majestic spiritual power into his dantian, but it was too late to refine it into "Hunyuan Spiritual Power", so he could only directly pour it into the "Stimulating Technique Truth". symbol".

   "Bu Yuan Pill" itself is a kind of "universal" elixir, the spiritual power contained in it has the characteristics of "no attribute", and can be easily converted into spiritual power of various attributes.

  So, under the infusion of the spiritual power of the Buyuan Pill, the "True Talisman of Provoking Technique" transformed into a more powerful wood attribute spiritual power, like a continuous stream, pouring into the shriveled seeds.

   What follows is a long casting process.

  Xu Ke kept taking the "Buyuan Pill" and maintained the continuous casting state of the "Stimulation Technique", constantly blending vitality into the shriveled seeds and pouring wood attribute spiritual power.

   One afternoon passed.

   One night passed.

   Another day passed.

  From the afternoon of the sixth day of the twelfth lunar month until the evening of the seventh day of the twelfth lunar month, one day and one night plus one and a half days, Xu Ke kept swallowing the elixir and continued to cast the triggering technique.

  Hundreds of pill bottles were scattered messily on the ground. After eating countless "Buyuan Pills", when Xu Ke was in a trance after casting spells for a long time, the shriveled seed finally responded.

   There was a slight "click", like a chick breaking its shell.

  At this moment, Xu Ke clearly felt that a weak but tenacious vitality bloomed from the shriveled seed.

  I don't know if it was due to long-term spellcasting that caused mental distress and hallucinations, or because the spiritual power connection was too close, resulting in induction.

  It seemed that Xu Ke had turned into that seed.

  Under the continuous infusion of vitality, the shriveled seeds seemed to wake up from their slumber, and then... stretched out their first roots.

  The roots pierced the shell, making a slight "click" sound, and then plunged into the purple-black soil as if smelling delicious.

  A series of spirit patterns emerged from the seeds, and the extremely complicated textures spread and intertwined in the seeds, forming a huge and complex structure of spirit patterns.

  This complex spirit pattern structure is like a huge talisman, and also like a large formation composed of countless runes.

  These natural textures seem to contain endless mysteries.

  Xu Ke couldn't understand, or even think about it, as if he had transformed himself into this seed, activating these textures instinctively.

  When these textures flashed in the roots, when the roots absorbed the nutrients in the purple-black soil, Xu Ke finally realized one of the texture structures.

   Devour! absorb! Transform!

   This is root's natural instinct!

  The next moment, Xu Ke's mind was shaken, and he broke away from the state of "incarnation into a seed" in an instant.

  The ones I just saw...

  Although Xu Ke didn't understand what those textures were, he also knew that this was definitely a chance.

  If it were someone else, even if he was in Xu Ke's position, he would have experienced the scene just now, and he would have gained very little.

   After all, those textures are too complicated to remember.

  Xu Ke couldn't remember either.

  But...can't remember once, how about a hundred times? not enough? Then do it a hundred times!

   It turns out that a hundred times is really not enough.

  Xu Ke swiped "Hundred Times Harvest" three times in a row before he firmly remembered the extremely complicated natural texture structure he saw just now.

   I don’t know what it will be useful for the time being, but Xu Ke has a feeling that this may be a huge opportunity.

"Ha ha ha ha!"

   A loud laugh woke Xu Ke up.

  I saw the white-haired old man hugging the flowerpot, watching the seeds of root hair growing in it, and smiling very happily.

   "Old man Zhuo Muxian, senior deacon of the Kaogong Division of the Sinong Palace."

  The white-haired old man nodded towards Xu Ke, "You must rot in your stomach about today's matter, and don't mention it to anyone. This time, the old man accepts your favor, and there will be a reward."

   "I still have to deal with this seed, let's go first!"

   As he spoke, the white-haired old man flickered, rushed out of the cave, and left in a hurry.
