In the kitchen, Qin Shaoyou respectfully put a stick of incense on the statue of the Patriarch of Jiutian Dang Demon, then turned on [Communication with Ghosts and Gods], pinched the magic formula with his hands, and said quickly: "Master, please lend me the power to conquer the devil."
!”
Qin Shaoyou was full of hope in borrowing his ancestor's ability.
Looking at the title of the Patriarch, "Nine Heavens Danger", you know how much power he has. Even if he lends it to himself a little, he may not even need to take action when he encounters monsters and ghosts. A look can scare the other person out of fear.
However, after Qin Shaoyou, who was full of expectations, finished making the seal and reciting the incantation, nothing happened.
Um?
Qin Shaoyou was stunned and looked at the statue of Jiutiandang Demon Patriarch.
The eyes of Jiutiandang Demon Patriarch were like wooden sculptures, staring straight at him.
"Is my title wrong? Should I use the full name of Grandmaster?"
Qin Shaoyou pondered.
He changed his title, recited the incantation, and used it again on the Patriarch.
However, this time, nothing happened.
Qin Shaoyou looked at the statue of the Patriarch again, and the Statue of the Patriarch also looked at him with an expressionless face.
After thinking about it, Qin Shaoyou moved his lips and started to deceive... No, he was trying to reason with the ancestor:
"Grandmaster, you are always a bit uninterested, aren't you? You see, every time I get something good, I always think of you. Now I always ask you to borrow some skills, but you are so stubborn and refuse to lend me. Isn't it a little bit...
Is it too much? It hurts my heart as your disciple? Besides, why am I borrowing your ability from you? Isn’t it just to help you hunt so that you can always have a bite of new food to eat..."
He was chattering endlessly, wondering if he had annoyed the Patriarch. The next moment, a huge force appeared out of thin air, pressing heavily on him, and pushed him to the ground with a 'pop'.
He can't move like a bastard.
If Qin Shaoyou's current cultivation level had not reached the third level, I am afraid that it would not be as simple as being crushed to the ground, but that his bones would be broken, his blood vessels would be crushed, and he would become incontinent...
Fortunately, this huge force, although it came suddenly, disappeared quickly, and it did not really cause any problems to Qin Shaoyou.
Qin Shaoyou got up from the ground with a confused look on his face.
He rested for a while before he regained his composure and figured out what had just happened.
Although the ancestor's strength has not yet returned to its peak state, as an ordinary person, it is wishful thinking to want to borrow his supreme magical power.
Because the body simply cannot bear it.
There is a saying that goes well, if you want to wear a crown, you must bear its weight.
In the same way, if you want to borrow the magical powers of your ancestor, you must have the strength to withstand these magical powers.
Otherwise, it will be like what happened just now, even if you borrow the magical power, you will not be able to use it. Instead, you will be pressed to the ground, giving the enemy an opportunity to take advantage of it, and even stage some plots that are often seen in Japanese romance movies...
It's like a child. If you give him a suit of heavy armor, he won't be able to put it on and will only be pressed to the ground...
Well, except for children like Xue Xiaobao and An Ziling.
After understanding this, Qin Shaoyou knew that he had just misunderstood his ancestor.
The old man didn't want to borrow magical powers, not because he was stingy, but because he didn't want to make him look bad.
It's a pity that he mistook the kindheartedness of his ancestor for the liver and lungs of a donkey, and he brought trouble upon himself.
Fortunately, there was no one else in the kitchen.
If no one sees it, it won't be a shame.
While Qin Shaoyou secretly rejoiced, he offered a stick of incense to his ancestor and apologized to him.
In a daze, Qin Shaoyou seemed to hear a soft hum, and then saw the eyes of the Patriarch's statue, turning to the side.
He looked like he didn't want to look at him.
Qin Shaoyou was thick-skinned. He smiled, moved closer to the direction where the eyes of the Patriarch's statue were looking, and asked with a stern face: "Master Patriarch, I can't borrow your old magic power now. Can I borrow the skills of the two generals, Turtle and Snake?"
The Patriarch did not answer and continued to move his eyes elsewhere.
Qin Shaoyou smiled understandingly.
As long as the ancestor doesn't stop it, it means it can be borrowed.
Qin Shaoyou immediately restarted [Communication with Ghosts and Gods] and borrowed abilities from the two generals Turtle and Snake.
As expected, he could barely control the magical powers of the two generals, Turtle and Snake.
But in terms of power, it is certainly much weaker than when the two generals Turtle and Snake use it themselves, but it is still enough.
What Qin Shaoyou borrowed from Snake General was the magical power of controlling fire.
The fire in the kitchen stove was about to go out, but under the influence of the magical power of controlling fire, it suddenly rekindled and was still burning brightly.
The leaping flames exuded brilliant divine power, giving this mortal fire the ability to burn and kill demons and ghosts.
What Turtle General lent to Qin Shaoyou was the method of controlling water.
The water in the kitchen water tank was controlled by Qin Shaoyou with this magical power. It kept changing, sometimes scattering into water droplets, sometimes condensing into water polo, sometimes turning into water mist, sometimes condensing into ice, bringing out the changeable nature of water.
of vividly.
When borrowing the abilities of the turtle and snake generals, behind Qin Shaoyou, there was a vague figure of turtle and snake, as if saying to people: 'We are covering this kid.'
Qin Shaoyou was very interested in controlling fire and water. He kept switching between them, causing the Patriarch to roll his eyes and seemed to be laughing at him: Is it fun? Have you never played it before?
In the courtyard of the Demon Town, the night watchmen watching the excitement, although they didn't know what was going on in the kitchen, could feel that it was hot and cold for a while.
Zhu Xiucai couldn't help but marveled: "The Nine Heavens of Ice and Fire... Your Excellency is so playful."
Su Tingyu on the side heard this, blinked and asked: "What kind of spell is the Nine Heavens of Ice and Fire? Why did it cost so much?"
"Um, this..."
Zhu Xiucai wanted to explain, but when he saw Cui Youyou glaring at him angrily, he thought that after explaining, he would have to deal with Qin Shaoyou when he came out.
Don’t explain it, Taoist Master Su is so eager to learn...
In the end, he could only laugh and put the blame on Cui Youhang: "Your senior brother knows, ask your senior brother."
Cui Youguo's expression froze instantly.
In the kitchen, Qin Shaoyou has also experimented enough.
He mainly looked at how much the borrowed ability of Generals Turtle and Snake would cost him, so he could estimate the length of time to borrow it, so as not to use it for too long and exhaust himself.
Later, Qin Shaoyou will also find Li Erlang, Cai Guizhong and Gunshan Lord to borrow the authority of the river god, city god and mountain god to conduct corresponding experiments.
Thinking about borrowing the abilities of these three, the cost would not be as high as borrowing the abilities of the two generals, Turtle and Snake, right?
After the experiment of "Communication with Ghosts and Gods" was over, Qin Shaoyou was about to leave seclusion when he suddenly felt something strange in his body, alternating between cold and hot, as if he had a cold.
With Qin Shaoyou's current strength, he would naturally not catch a cold, so this was probably a side effect of borrowing the abilities of Generals Turtle and Snake.
This sudden coldness and hotness is consistent with the phase of water and fire.
It was very uncomfortable to fight, but it was within Qin Shaoyou's acceptance range. He planned to go out and ask Su Tingyu to help him cast a Ganlin spell to see if it could alleviate this uncomfortable feeling.
So when Qin Shaoyou opened the kitchen door and walked out, what people outside saw was him with a false look on his face.
Everyone was astonished: Didn’t Master Qin achieve a breakthrough in strength? Why was he still weak?
Zhu Xiucai's eyes were filled with blazing flames of gossip, and he secretly guessed: First it was the Nine Heavens of Ice and Fire, and now it is a face of emptiness... Sir, there is something interesting about being closed. Could it be that there is something wrong with hiding it?
