Chapter 186 Innate Spells (for the Cold Food Moon Night Alliance Lord
In the cave, Xu Dao appeared in the body of a dragon. He sat cross-legged in the mist and thought carefully.
The method of "Tooth General and Scale Soldier" is the same as mirage. It is a talent derived from Xu Dao's body after planting the dragon blood spiritual root.
It allows Xu Dao to transform his own bones into soldier puppets to be driven. It is similar to a spell that turns beans into soldiers, but it does not require him to learn it. It is a spell that is "born with knowledge" and may be called a talent spell.
But the bones that could really be used by Xu Dao to transform into soldiers, he thought about it and found that there were only teeth and scales at present. If he used phalanges, tibias, etc., the gains would outweigh the losses.
Using teeth and scales to transform into soldiers will not put too much burden on his physical body, nor will it damage his origin. It will only consume varying degrees of Qi and blood. He can even lose his teeth and replace them at any time, and grow his scales.
It is worth mentioning that the "Tooth General" formed by the transformation of teeth can compete with Taoists or monsters of the same realm, with a small amount of quality.
The "scale soldiers" transformed from scales are still weak and insect-like existences, following the route of insect swarms, with quantity but little quality.
Even if the scale soldiers generate demonic energy and become Qi-refining level monsters, they will still be unable to defeat ordinary Qi-refining monsters one on one, and must make up for quality with quantity, similar to the previous ants.
Moreover, if Xu Dao wants to improve the strength of the tooth general scale soldiers, he does not have to feed them with his own essence and blood. He can directly bury the teeth or scales in the soil, water them with monster blood or spiritual objects, and then he can grow various levels of them.
The fang generals and scale soldiers came out.
Or you can simply create it first, and then let it eat blood food on its own to increase its strength. However, in this way, the strength of the tooth general and scale soldier will increase slowly, and it will consume a lot more blood food.
Such a talent has only two shortcomings.
First, the foundation of the Tooth General and Scale Soldier was harvested from the bones of Xu Dao and then planted. Its strength was born with a ceiling, and it was basically impossible to break through and surpass Xu Dao's own realm.
Specifically, Xu Dao's physical body is now at the foundation-building state, and although the tooth general scale soldiers are growing rapidly, the further they go, the slower their growth rate will be. When they grow to the late stage of Qi refining, their growth rates will be the same as ordinary ones.
Taoists practice at the same speed, and only by chance or by obtaining superior heavenly materials and earthly treasures can they quickly advance to the realm of foundation building.
Even if Xu Dao is promoted to the middle stage of foundation building, or even the late stage, or even golden elixir in the future, the tooth general and scale soldiers he planted when he first established foundation will never be able to break through to the middle stage of foundation building.
This point is similar to, but slightly different from, the relationship between the ant king and the ant citizens in the Nanke beetle colony. As for the second point, it is completely different.
When Xu Dao was refining the Nanke wormfly earlier, although he replaced the ant king's intelligence with his own thoughts, the ants, large and small, spawned by the ant king on his own would still be born with subtle intelligence, and there was no need for Xu Dao to replace it with his thoughts.
Control, able to act on its own.
But now he plucks bones from his body and grows teeth, generals and scale soldiers. Both of them are like puppets, their bodies are empty and there is no intelligence at all.
In addition to some instincts, which allow them to eat blood and fight, they must be controlled by thoughts to act and fight like normal living beings.
Fortunately, the scale soldiers can follow the tooth generals, and Xu Dao does not need to control them. He only needs to place a tooth general among a group of scale soldiers and control the tooth generals with his thoughts, and then he can barely control the Tao soldiers and generals under his command.
Xu Dao frowned slightly, racking his brains.
The first shortcoming of the Tooth General and Scale Soldier is that it is limited by the state of his physical body. There is basically no possibility of improvement, and there is no need to pay much attention to it.
But there may be a way to solve the second shortcoming, and it limits Xu Dao's ability to use the Teeth General's Scale Soldiers. It must be resolved before the Teeth General's Scale Soldiers can fully play their role.
While thinking hard, Xu Dao's double eyelids opened, his eyes indifferent.
The Tooth General and Scale Soldiers he had just sent out had returned and were flying towards him slowly, fluttering their wings.
In the mouths and claws of a fang general and a dozen scale soldiers, several living creatures were being held. They offered the living creatures to Xu Dao, and then, driven by Xu Dao's thoughts, they exited the cave.
.
Although Xu Dao has not yet recovered from the demonic state of foundation building, only about one-tenth of the hundred-day foundation building time has passed. His physical body has not yet completely transformed into shape, and he is in urgent need of blood food.
The reason why he immediately planted the Tusk General Scale Soldier was not only to test this talent, but also to use it to hunt for himself and search for blood and spiritual food.
Silently controlling his teeth, Xu Dao walked out of the scale soldiers. Without thinking, he picked up the elk and several living things on the ground, put them into his mouth and chewed them, causing blood to splash down.
He thought thoughtfully in his mind: "At present, relying on thought induction, the control range is only a thousand steps away, just like controlling a cuttlefish sword. If you want to spread it further, you have to put the Yin God into it, and then you can travel far away."
."
The place where Xu Dao is located is just an ordinary valley. It is estimated that it won't be long before the food within a thousand steps will be completely plundered by the tooth general scale soldiers.
At that time, if he wanted to find food again, he would either have to control the Yinshen to hunt with his fangs, generals and scales, or he could move cleanly to his home.
It's just that he is still in the process of transformation, and the Yin Shen cannot leave the body, otherwise the physical body will be deformed and become a demon. And if he moves back and forth, it will be troublesome for him now, and it will not be convenient for him to practice in seclusion.
"The living creatures on a mountaintop are probably only enough to last half a day."
Licking the blood on his paws, Xu Dao thought to himself: "It would be great if we could enslave a group of Taoist spirits or ghosts and put them into the teeth, generals and scale soldiers to drive them."
After careful consideration, he found that this method was theoretically feasible.
He himself can put the Yin God into it and drive the teeth to generals and the scale soldiers, then other Taoist Yin Gods should be able to do it as well, they just need to be warmed and nourished.
Xu Dao's indifferent eyes flickered.
Since there is no soul in the body of the tooth general scale soldier, it is like a puppet, just put the soul in it. However, he does not have the relevant secret method in his hand, and he does not know how to refine ghost spells, so he must consider the long term.
"How to capture souls and refine ghosts..." Xu Dao pondered and suddenly remembered the third force among the three major forces in the southwest.
This force is also the strongest among the three. It even requires the White Bone Temple and the Yaksha Sect to join forces to compete with this force. It is the Yaksha Sect!
This Taoist sect is good at practicing ghost arts, raising ghost slaves, and paper magic. It can dress the ghost soldiers under the sect with paper helmets and armor made of paper talismans, and dispatch troops to kill enemies with more bones than bones.
The skeleton Taoist soldiers in the temple are much more convenient.
Moreover, it is said that Yaksha Sect is a purely immortal sect, and its Taoists only practice Yin Shen, and are not involved in martial arts, sword immortals, and Gu insects.
Xu Dao is only building the foundation of the physical body now, and his immortal Yin Shen cultivation is still in the late stage of Qi refining, not even perfect. At the same time, he has no specific method to establish the foundation of the immortal path.
If he still wanted to build the foundation of the immortal path and cultivate both life and life, he had to start planning now.
The three words "Yakshamen" wandered in Xu Dao's mind for a while.
