Unlike the previous times when he absorbed the holy spring water, this time it was really enjoyable and extremely satisfying. In the past, whether it was the holy spring water obtained by completing tasks or hundreds of units of holy spring water exchanged for badges of honor, Ka Xiu felt that for the powerful
Physically, it is just a drop in the bucket. It is like a land that has been dry for a long time. Occasionally, light rain falls, and even the cracks in the soil cannot be filled. But now, it is directly flooded with water, and the dry desert has suddenly turned into a swamp. There is no doubt that
, this is a kind of enjoyment.
Ka Xiu could feel layers of warm invisible liquid seeping into the tough surface skin. It was like a hazy mist, passing through the muscles, moisturizing the fascia, and covering the surface of the bones. At this moment,
It's like taking a hot spring bath. There are water waves in all directions, like gentle tapping of fingers, and the massage is relaxing. The body will soon enter a state of transparency.
The golden pool water continued to be absorbed and began to slowly descend at an inaudible speed. The spring water above was constantly replenishing, making the pool water lower even more slowly. Ka Xiu entered a free and relaxed state. It was as if he was lying alone on the ground.
Ye Pianzhou, swaying along with the blue waves, sailed in an unknown direction. But at this moment, he did not relax his vigilance.
Both the holy spring water and the power of the secret soul contain trace amounts of disaster. They are like inconspicuous chronic toxins, which are nothing at first. As time goes by, the dose increases, and the toxins become more comprehensive.
It breaks out and becomes a highly toxic and terminal disease that is almost incurable.
The Eye monsters will have extreme side effects after mastering various powers from the Black Rain Villa. As the hunters continue to fight and replenish the holy spring water, the disaster will accumulate in the body, and they will become unstoppable and transform into beasts.
For intelligent life, especially humans.
Disaster is a kind of poison that has no cure.
Fortunately, the mysterious ancient Aoyin civilization seems to have left some restraint methods. Those five cornerstone runes use disasters as energy consumption to function. For example, Kaxiu's spiritual runes can easily absorb these.
The essence of the ownerless disaster. Speaking of this, in fact, sometimes Kaxiu will wonder whether the Aoyin civilization is an existence that resists the disaster, or is an existence that controls the disaster. After all, using the essence of the disaster as the driving force of the five cornerstones
Energy is possible in both directions.
Of course, these are all wild fantasies. Ka Xiu is still enjoying the convenience brought by the spiritual runes. The essence of disaster mixed in the holy spring water and absorbed into the body has just settled, and before it has time to penetrate, it is absorbed by the spiritual runes.
The runes were swept away. The black Ouroboros tattoo on the chest began to rotate slowly and silently.
Blah blah blah...blah blah blah...
Amidst the crisp sound of spring water falling on the surface of the pool, Ka Xiu glanced at the back of his hand. There were thirty-three white-gold holy marks on it. In addition, there were pale golden holy marks that continued to grow. Among the platinum holy marks,
The ends were stacked. After a while, there were as many golden stigmata as there were platinum stigmas. The total was sixty-six.
This number should have exceeded most shadow hunters.
The No. 1 Shadow Hunter Colossus has only seventy stigmata, while the Black Agency Chief has seventy-nine stigmata. This is the limit of their current ability to withstand the erosion of disasters, and it is related to their physical strength and mental will.
Of course, it doesn't mean that you can't continue to improve after reaching the limit. People are adaptable. After living together for a long time, and their tolerance for disasters increases, they may be able to increase their strength a little bit based on the limit.
And this power will not be very many, as many as three or five, as few as one or two stigmata. In general, after becoming a shadow hunter, taking a dip in the holy spring water will most likely reach the limit of the talent. Then add more after that.
A little bit of strength is just a drop in the bucket and cannot achieve much growth.
Card Xiu now has sixty-six stigmata, which is actually as many as Shadow Hunter No. 2 Louis. This is Lewis's limit, but it is not Card Xiu's limit. His body is still absorbing the holy spring water, and the speed is still the same as when he first started absorbing it.
So hungry and thirsty, with no sign of stopping.
Gradually, the number of stigmata on the back of the hand began to increase one after another.
……69,70,71……
Easily surpasses the No. 1 Dark Hunter Jam.
……78,79,80……
He surpassed the black agency chief again.
At this time, Ka Xiu found that the growth rate of the stigmata began to slow down. It was not that his absorption rate of holy spring water was slowing down, but that his body seemed to have developed something similar to drug resistance. The higher the saturation of the stigmata, the higher the limit.
The process of consummation becomes even more difficult. Therefore, Kaxiu's previous calculation was actually wrong. He thought that only 2,400 units of holy spring water would be needed to achieve saturation, but the actual situation was different.
However, it doesn't matter at all given the current situation.
Ka Xiu soaked in the source of the holy spring and took a bath directly with the precious holy spring water. So what if the holy spring water needed was far more than 2,400 units? If it were doubled ten times, it would only be 60 liters, which is a drop in the bucket.
What's more, the consumption cannot be increased tenfold.
This is the benefit of becoming a shadow hunter, the only opportunity to absorb the holy spring water unscrupulously until you reach your personal limit.
97,98,99…100!
One hundred sacred marks are arranged neatly on the back of the hand, like a square square. The lower half is white gold, and the upper half is pale gold. At a glance, it looks like it is covered with a piece of gold foil.
According to Ka Xiu's induction, the holy spring water absorbed this time was one-half more than expected. In other words, after excluding the 33 platinum holy marks that already existed, there are still 67 golden holy marks left to consume.
There were approximately more than 2,400 units of holy spring water. After a little calculation, he felt relieved when he thought of the secret power he had already reserved.
Fortunately, I had made a reservation before and saved a lot more. Otherwise, if the power of secret soul also has the characteristic that the more saturated it is, the greater the consumption will be. I'm afraid it won't be enough.
Of course, this was not what Ka Xiu did on purpose. Instead, he took the Ghost Iron Knight on the mission of Black Rain Villa, and the rewards related to the disaster world were quite rich. Unknowingly, he accumulated a massive amount of secret power in his hands.
Now, the holy spring water has reached a saturated state, and all that is left is to absorb the power of the secret soul. Kaxiu suddenly opened his eyes and found that it was close to dusk on the horizon. He stood up slowly, revealing the back of his right hand. With a slight movement in his mind, a stream of
The stigmata actually turned dark and disappeared on its own initiative.
With flickering eyes, Kaxiu concealed the thirty-three platinum holy marks.
Only sixty-seven golden stigmata flickered.
The energy of the holy spring water in his body has reached a saturated state, and there is an unusually abundant and endless feeling. It is not true as the rumors say, if someone can reach a hundred holy marks, a self-circulation can be generated in the body. Even in battle
After consuming the energy of the stigmata, there is no need to replenish the holy spring water, and the consumed stigmata will grow back automatically.
Ka Xiu's eyes were slightly surprised, but he did not continue to study. After all, the holy hunter Dilishati was beside him. He took steps and walked out of the pool. The holy spring water was not absorbed by the fabric at all, as if they were connected to each other.
The attraction was the same, and he still stayed in the pool. Ka Xiu slowly moved his body, and a crisp sound of explosions came from his bones.
On the golden stone, Dilishati opened her eyes and jumped down.
He slowly glanced at the back of Card Xiu's hand, saw the appearance of sixty-seven golden stigmata, and nodded secretly: "Very good, your current limit is already one level higher than Lewis. If the subsequent adaptation goes well,
Maybe it can exceed seventy, maybe even more than Kasai." Dilishati said in an appreciative and encouraging tone.
Card Xiu smiled and looked at the back of Dilishati's hand: "What about you? I once heard that the black agency chief has seventy-nine rules."
Dilixiati shook his head and seemed to have approved of Kaxiu. He showed the back of his hand generously. There were seventy-seven golden holy marks on it.
"Oh? It's only two lines less than the black mechanism. Maybe..."
Ka Xiu's eyes flickered slightly.
Dilishati smiled and shook his head: "Do you believe that all the rumors are true? There are also rumors that I can replace the agency chief, but in reality? The gap between him and me, haha
…”
He ended with a self-deprecating laugh.
Card Xiu narrowed his eyes slightly. Judging from Dilixiati's reaction, the rumors were probably not true. In other words, they were true, but the seventy-nine were the limit of the black agency chief when he first became a dark hunter. He
The number of stigmata that will be improved through willpower training is a mystery and is not included. It can be as few as one or two, as many as three or five? So it is 84?
In the end, Kaxiu did not get an answer from Dilishati.
The two of them followed the same procedure as when they came, and returned to Feilengcui City through the dark tunnel. By this time, it was already night.
Card Xiu first came to the residence of the old hunter Herb, celebrated with a group of old hunters without excitement, and then returned to his single-family house. He took a black box and left the Dark Hunting Headquarters at night.
He came to the outskirts of the city, a slightly familiar place. The last time Cardiff and the Ghost Man Iron Knight met, it was in this abandoned monastery.
The bright moon hangs high on the branches, and hazy clouds and mist gather around each other. On the dark sky, stars twinkle, and some similar ones vaguely form the shapes of various animals. Beside the dead tree, a young man quietly looks up to the sky.
Wherever you look, there seems to be the Southern Dipper constellation.
Card Xiu watched for a while and seemed to find the ever-changing Giant Vulture and Star Python. He withdrew his sight and adjusted his state to the best.
This is the courtyard of the monastery. Withered grass is everywhere and the stone pavement is full of gravel. The windows of the pointed building are empty and dark, and there are spider webs wrapped around the corners, which looks a bit eerie. A dead tree stands in the corner of the courtyard.
There are broken stone tables and benches nearby.
Ka Xiu was sitting on a stool, and on the table was a metal vessel that exuded a cold air. Inside was 2,800 units of secret soul power.
He sat quietly for a while, then slowly stretched out his right hand. The mark on the back of the hand was no longer concealed, and changed back to a hundred. Ka Xiu grabbed the metal vessel with his big hand and brought it to him, like a generous thirsty drinker.
He drank it all in one gulp. Suddenly, a cold and cold feeling spread from head to toe.
After drinking a sufficient amount, a deep palm print had been made on the solid metal vessel. Ka Xiu put it down and felt a cold breath coming from his mouth. He felt as if he was drinking liquid nitrogen just now.
, the mouth, throat and blood vessels are almost sealed by ice.
Before his senses could relax, Ka Xiu could already feel the secret power in his body reacting with the holy spring water. The expected drastic changes occurred, and the feeling of the two heavens of ice and fire was extremely sour. The two special energies were in
Catalyzed by the body's blood, a violent collision and fusion suddenly occurred. For a moment, it seemed as if every blood vessel in the body was wailing in pain.
Pfft...
The skin on Ka Xiu's body burst, and blood spurted out from nearly a hundred cracks, which suddenly dyed the fabric of his clothes red. It looked extremely scary at first glance, but he didn't care, he just used life vibration energy to repair the wounds. Then, all over his body,
Blood vessels everywhere are constantly bursting and healing.
The blood surged again and again, forming a thick layer of scab on the surface of the body. Ka Xiu remained expressionless, staring at the back of his right hand.
The majority of the golden stigmata are being dyed in white gold.
From two-thirds to one-half, one-quarter...
Finally, the only remaining golden stigmata disappeared.
At this moment, a hundred holy marks turned into a hundred platinum holy marks!
The blood in Kaxiu's body seemed to have been replaced by the blood of living creatures.
Suddenly, the sacred marks on the back of his hand changed drastically. The neatly arranged sacred marks rotated and rejoined, seeming to form a new pattern. At the same moment, Ka Xiu felt that the spiritual runes on his chest were also intersecting.
Echoed, with a burning feeling. More than ten seconds passed, the gorgeous white gold color stopped, and a pattern appeared.
This is an equilateral triangle, with thirty-three platinum holy marks on each side. In the middle of the equilateral triangle, there is a platinum holy mark that connects the vertices and is perpendicular to the other side.
Life runes? Or life runes?
Of course it's not a rune font, but it seems to have considerable capabilities.
Card Xiu stood up with great interest and decided to test the effect of the Perfect Platinum Stigmata. He decisively added it to the Nandou Boxing Technique.
Bang bang bang bang bang bang...
Card Xiu's clothes actually exploded with dozens of holes, as if he had been hit by a hail of bullets. Each hole corresponded to the location of the acupuncture points of two Nandou Quan techniques. He immediately took off all his clothes.
Thirty-one Nandou Red Eagle Fist acupoints exude scarlet color.
The two actually began to echo each other, not only echoing each other, but also having a direct connection with the flashing frequency of the Giant Vulture and Star Python in the sky. Kaxiu immediately sat cross-legged, clasped his hands, and looked up at the sky. The blue sky
The colorful holes reflect the bright stars in the sky.
Kakaka...kakaka...
There was a sudden cracking sound in the body, which was not a substantial physical damage, but a drastic change in the constructed Nandou virtual meridians.
The two Nandou frame systems, which were originally going their own way and were clearly separated from each other, actually compressed and overlapped! It was as if the blood vulture slowly lowered its sharp claws and grabbed the python's body. The sound python wrapped around the blood vulture in reverse.
Their wings were entangled tighter and tighter. In this process of mutual repulsion, fighting and strange symbiosis, Ka Xiu felt an unprecedented power...
