In the early morning, it was just dawn and the sun had not yet risen.
Full of energy, ignoring the howling cold wind, Zhang Chunyi sat cross-legged on the big blue rock, while the white mist demon Hongyun shrank into a small ball and was pinched between his palms.
Monster souls are turbid and far away from the Tao. The so-called cultivation relies too much on instinct and is extremely inefficient. However, immortal cultivators have light souls and are born short-term. After refining the monsters, they naturally have to find ways to make up for this shortcoming. However, in
Before this, you need to have an in-depth understanding of monsters.
The spiritual thoughts left the body, using the Soul Seal as a guide, and merged into the demon body. At this moment, the white mist demon had no secrets for Zhang Chunyi.
"Inferior bones, as expected."
With his spiritual thoughts sweeping across, Zhang Chunyi saw a "demon bone" emitting gleaming white light inside the body of the cloud demon.
All demons must have bones, which is a manifestation of their qualifications. Even if the artifact becomes a demon, it will produce demon bones, demon veins, and demon blood, which are similar to flesh and blood creatures. However, this kind of demon bones are still different from bones in the conventional sense.
There is a big difference.
Demonic bones are divided into four grades: upper, middle, lower, and last. Among them, the upper grade is the best and the lowest grade is the worst. The demon bone carries the sea of qi. The higher the level of the demon bone, the more demonic power the sea of qi can carry.
The faster you swallow spiritual energy, the faster it will transform into demonic power. However, in legends, there are still so-called immortal roots and bones.
Of course, the demon bones are hidden deep inside. Before planting the soul seal, unless they have specialized identification methods, it is difficult for immortal cultivators to determine the true bones of the demon. They can only speculate based on the demon's external manifestations, such as race.
.
"I don't know what kind of magic seeds Hongyun has, or whether there will be any surprises."
As his thoughts turned, Zhang Chunyi's spiritual thoughts penetrated into the demonic bones of the cloud demon. In the process, Hongyun instinctively wanted to resist, but was easily suppressed by Zhang Chunyi.
The sea of qi contains demonic power, like a whirlpool in the sea or the annual rings of a tree, surrounded by circles. The more majestic the demonic power is, the more circles there are. Later, for the convenience of measurement, immortal cultivators defined one circle as one year of cultivation.
"After one year of cultivation, it is normal for a new monster to appear."
Looking at the Yunwu Demon's meager demonic power, Zhang Chunyi was not surprised.
"But it seems there are no surprises."
His spiritual thoughts touched the two magic seeds that looked like white lotus seeds that were silent in the sea of air, and Zhang Chunyi learned their information.
There is a way in heaven and earth, and the traces left by the way have incredible power. The way of practice is born from this. When the disordered traces of the way condense on something and absorb the wisdom and inspiration of heaven, the cornerstone of the way of practice and the spiritual object will be
was born.
And when the orderly Dao marks gather together to explain the incomplete principles of heaven and earth, magic seeds are born. Each of them has incredible power. It is possible to control wind and fire, capture stars and moon. p>
Spell seeds are bred from heaven and earth, and are often born in some strange places or by chance. Monsters have a secret, and they are accompanied by spell seeds when they are born. This is the root of their power.
The two spell seeds that Hongyun possesses are "Water Gathering" and "Fog Dispelling". They are both low-grade spells, and they are relatively poor among the lower-grade spells. Water Gathering is to gather water vapor between heaven and earth to form rain.
, the specific scale is related to whether the demonic power possessed by the monster is deep or not. Although in theory, as long as the demonic power of Hongyun is powerful enough, it can also rain heavily and flood the whole place, but this is not realistic at all.
First of all, Hongyun only has low-grade root bones. If the root bones cannot be changed, the demonic power it can accumulate will naturally have its limit. Secondly, the reason why the water-gathering method is defined as low-grade is because it can only gather water vapor that exists between heaven and earth.
, you can't make something out of nothing. The thinner the water vapor that permeates the sky and the earth, the worse the effect of this method. If there is no water vapor in an area, this method will be useless.
Dispelling fog is similar to gathering water. Its function is to drive away the fog between heaven and earth. However, because the red cloud itself is a cloud demon, the restrictions are smaller, but the effect is still not great.
"This is normal. If a middle-grade method or a top-grade method really appears, it would be an accident."
The spiritual thoughts dissipated, and Zhang Chunyi’s consciousness returned to his own body.
After clarifying Hongyun's current situation and holding the cloud in his hand, Zhang Chunyi thought about what to do next.
It is not surprising that Hongyun has a low-grade root bone and Zhang Chunyi. It is even possible that a low-grade root bone appears. After all, the cloud demon clan is weak. Except for a few aliens, most of the root bones are low-grade and low-grade.
Wait, most of them are at the bottom level. From this point of view, although Hongyun is not a genius of the Yunwu Demon Clan, he is by no means a waste.
The reason why Zhang Chunyi chose to refine Hongyun as his first monster was not only forced by the situation, but also because the nature of Hongyun fit the heritage of Longhu Mountain.
Demons have aspects, such as wind, thunder, rain, water, etc. Some have only one type, and some have multiple types. There is no distinction between superior and inferior, but some aspects are rare.
Hongyun is a demon transformed from clouds and mists, and has three natural phases: wind, water, and thunder. Longhu Mountain is famous for its thunder magic. It inherits the two great magical powers of summoning wind and rain and mastering five thunders. Although Zhang Chunyi's inheritance is incomplete, it is short-lived.
The time is enough for Hongyun.
"Hongyun has just been born. Improving the demonic power is a top priority. Demonic power is the foundation. Without strong demonic power as a support, even if you master the magic, you will not be able to use it."
As the thoughts in his mind turned, a recipe appeared in Zhang Chunyi's mind, called Eat the Wind and Drink the Dew.
Wild monsters mostly rely on instinct to absorb the world. The efficiency of absorption is closely related to their roots. It often takes a long time to grow up. However, immortal cultivators have limited lifespan, so naturally they cannot accept such results, so various auxiliary methods began.
Appearance, spiritual objects, elixirs, and formations are all included, and the core is the breathing method.
Since the instinctive speed of absorbing the spiritual energy of heaven and earth is too slow, then we need to use a more efficient method. This is the breathing method. However, the original breathing method was not born in the hands of immortal cultivators, but was brought by monsters.
Some powerful monsters have their own inheritance in their blood. Every breath and breath is a kind of skill in itself, which is in line with the principles of heaven and earth. By learning from monsters, by carefully understanding a certain monster and according to its specific situation, immortal cultivators have created various
Breathing method helps these monsters practice.
The technique of eating wind and drinking dew is a foundation-building breathing method inherited from Longhu Mountain. It involves eating the wind from all directions and drinking the nectar from the sky. Although it is not particularly outstanding among the superior breathing methods, it is extremely universal and suitable for most people.
Among some monsters, the two-phase monsters of wind and water have the best results.
Of course, the limitations of most breathing methods are actually very large, and they are often limited to a certain type of monsters, because the differences between different monsters are very huge. This is why Dining Feng Yin Lu Jue is defined as the superior breathing method.
One of the fundamental reasons.
Take the Zhang family's Crouching Tiger Breathing Technique in Pingyang as an example. This breathing method is only suitable for tiger monsters. Other monsters cannot practice it at all. Forcibly practicing it will only damage your own foundation. This is also a manifestation of inheritance, because you want to practice it.
It is actually not easy to create a suitable breathing method for a certain type of monster.
The various principles of eating wind and drinking dew flowed in his heart, and Zhang Chunyi carefully considered them. Although he had studied these techniques in his previous life, he had no chance to actually try them because of the end of heaven and earth.
Since the spirit of the monster is turbid, it is too difficult to expect Hongyun to learn the "Food Wind and Drinking Dew" technique on his own. The only way is to wait for Zhang Chunyi to study it step by step and guide it to move around the world, absorbing inspiration, over and over again, and finally turning it into instinct. In other words, for a long period of time in the future, Hongyun's dining style, drinking and dew technique will actually have to be practiced together with Zhang Chunyi.
