"How is it?"
After meditating for three hours, Cheng Fei couldn't wait to ask,
Wei Qing stood on the riverbank, looking at the river, letting it slap the riverbed, and remained silent for a long time.
"Speak quickly."
"Your elemental affinity is average..."
"How much?" Cheng Fei couldn't wait any longer and grabbed frantically.
"Five, five, five thousand times." Wei Qing said this with a trembling voice.
"Sh, sh, what, five thousand times."
It's definitely a very terrifying number,
Five thousand times means that one day of his practice is equivalent to fifteen years of others' practice!
"Most people have an elemental affinity of around 100, but yours has reached 50,000." Wei Qingwei smiled.
"This place is very quiet, the scenery is nice, and the elements are relatively dense. You practice here and go out when you reach the peak of foundation building." Wei Qing seemed to have something on his mind.
"It's a wild place here. What shall I eat?" Cheng Fei was dissatisfied.
"It's up to you." "I'll go and collect some books about magic. When the time comes, I'll come back to see you. You just need to practice quietly here."
Iron hoof 锘 empire, imperial capital.
The ninth floor of the imperial wine hall,
Uncle Xiang and Cheng Yun are playing Go.
It seems Cheng Yun lost.
"Ha ha, Uncle Xiang, I've never beaten you in all these years. Oh, I didn't expect to lose again, ha ha." Cheng Yun was not in a bad mood at all because of the loss. He looked pretty good.
"Too much, too much. You didn't put your heart into it. If you were really serious, the outcome might not be certain." "Uncle Xiang laughed.
Cheng Yun put away his smile and pointed to Uncle Xiang, saying, "Uncle Xiang knows me," then he sighed, "It's been almost a year since Cheng Fei started school. I wonder how he's been over there."
The one he was most concerned about was this youngest, most foolish and least thoughtful third son.
"With Miss Wei Qing around, there will be no problem with safety, but I don't understand why Miss Wei Qing is looking for the young master," Uncle Xiang frowned slightly.
"I can't figure it out either. The life contract is about to expire in a year, son. This year is the limit for your father. You should cherish it yourself." Cheng Yun's voice was noticeably lower.
Uncle Xiang's eyes gradually dimmed. Although Cheng Fei was not his biological son, he had raised him all by himself, and the affection between them was no less than that between ordinary biological father and son.
Speaking of Cheng Fei, both of them fell silent.
"Cheng Yun, I feel like you're going to break through recently. Have you arranged the manpower? "Uncle Xiang smoked a cigarette.
On the path of cultivation, every time you break through a level, you face an unprecedented challenge - the transformation of the soul. The so-called soul replacement is the body, all the flesh and bones have to be replaced. After the soul replacement, the body becomes stronger to accommodate the powerful force of the new realm, but it is very dangerous and very painful. Once it succeeds, it enters the path of immortality, but once it fails, the soul will be destroyed and the death will be very tragic.
But the most dangerous are human beings. Every time a cultivator changes his soul, it will bring about a fatal disaster.
People are like this: they cannot tolerate others becoming stronger than themselves. When one person is about to become stronger, the others will gather together and kill him before he becomes stronger!
This is what cultivators dread most when they swap their souls.
There are countless cultivators who have been killed during soul swaps, too many to mention.
Cheng Yun was silent. It was no joke to break into the immortal path from the Heavenly Way. There were quite a few Heavenly Way experts on the Augustus continent, but the immortal path experts were pitifully few, probably only a hundred or so.
Immortal path experts are very precious in Augustus.
Every time a master of the Immortal Path emerges, it will have a considerable impact and will also attract more masters.
"I ordered yesterday to bring him back. "Uncle Xiang said solemnly.
"You mean Ye Fei?"
"Well, this time, if he's in charge, the chances of success will increase a lot. These past few months, Jubert has been attacking our field like crazy. It seems he's serious. This time, we have to be cautious." "
Cheng Yun naturally knew the reason, one of the three largest families on the Augustus continent, to have reached this point, there must be no few enemies in between, and now with the younger brother of the iron hoof 锘 empire, rupert, this time, for all his enemies, it was undoubtedly an excellent opportunity.
"I've heard that Jubert has established his own army. It seems he's not satisfied with the current situation. You find an opportunity to talk to Panama. I want to see what terrifying power he has hidden." Cheng Yun smiled.
At this moment, a sound of footsteps was heard outside the room, and soon a strong young man came in,
"Father, Uncle Xiang, something big has happened." The young man said, but there was no sign of panic. There was always a hint of confidence in his brows.
This man is Cheng Tai, Cheng Yun's favorite son.
Seven years ago, he graduated with a middle grade in the way of Heaven, and since then he has been running the business with Cheng Yun and has achieved many feats. Now he has a very high prestige in the Geltai Chamber of Commerce, second only to his father.
"What's going on?" Cheng Yun chuckled softly.
"Just now, the guards at the city gate sent in the news that more than ten immortal masters entered the imperial capital, presumably all aimed at you. I beseech father to hand over all his men to me for unified dispatch, so that father can pass through the tribulation of soul exchange smoothly."
Cheng Yun glanced at Uncle Xiang, both of them smiled, and then he said with a smile, "Well, now Yun 'er can handle things independently, father is at ease."
Nine months have passed in the blink of an eye
Cheng Fei has been working hard in the cold mountains, never taking a single step. In the nine months, he has made astonishing progress and trained very hard, very hard.
There is joy in progress,
The confusion when encountering problems in practice, the impulse when getting inspiration in conversations with Wei Qing,
There is the unbearable hunger, the hardship of exploration...
In short, everything, everything, it's all over, I got through it,
In the third week of his cultivation, Cheng Fei, relying on his special talent for magic, entered the lower position of Foundation Establishment.
A month later, by the Still river, he entered the middle position of foundation building,
Three months later, under the moon in the early morning, he once again got the break and entered the high position of foundation building,
... Today, nine months later,
After countless tribulations, he finally broke through the peak and entered the earth,
The peak of the Underworld!
In just nine months, he accomplished something that others would take hundreds of years or even longer.
This is by no means an accident, nor is it the result of extraordinary talent alone. No matter how high the talent is, it is impossible to break through the peak of foundation construction without hard work...
Standing on the banks of the Jinghe River, looking at the river water, Cheng Fei, seemingly calm on the surface, was filled with countless emotions.
I finally found my own way of cultivation. I, I Cheng Fei, I'm finally going to make a name for myself...
Father, father, do you see that I am not weak, I am not weak, I am going to make a name for myself, ha ha, father, wait, wait, I will prove it,
I, Cheng Fei, am not weak...
"Tart, tart, tart..." The crisp footsteps rang in Cheng Fei's ears,
Wei Qing is here.
Cheng Fei's lips curled up slightly, his hands clasped in front of his chest, quickly crossed and disordered, rapidly gathered the seal,
He turned sharply, facing Wei Qing, his whole body taut. "Level One magic - Fireball."
Three small fireballs the size of a palm shot out of his mouth, roaring towards Wei Qing at an extremely fast speed.
Then he changed his seal, "Secondary Magic - Water Soul Arrow."
The water suddenly churned and formed three vortices, and the river water shot up into the air with the vortices, then transformed into several meters of arrows and shot towards Wei Qing from three directions, no less fast than the previous fireball.
Then he changed his hand shape again, "Second-level magic - Earth Flow Shield, rise."
As the three fireballs and three arrows were about to touch Wei Qing's body, suddenly the ground around her began to flow, creating a vortex, and countless grains of earth instantly formed a shield outside her, firmly protecting Wei Qing inside.
"Boom, splash..."
A series of impacts, shaking the ground,
The water arrow and fireball were eventually blocked by the earth shield,
When everything returned to calm, Cheng Fei glanced at Wei Qing and saw her stand there stunned before coming towards him again.
"Well, ha ha, scared, but it doesn't matter, I'll protect you from now on, no one dares to do anything to you." "Cheng Fei, patting his chest, said loudly.
Wei Qing muttered, "It's so disappointing to expose the trick,"
But she was actually astonished at how fast Cheng Fei was advancing,
"Not so good. It's far from your goal."
"What goal?" Cheng Fei scratched his head. "I don't think I told you my goal, say, what goal."
"Be the strongest man on the continent of Augustus and then marry me, isn't that your goal?"
"Ah --" Cheng Fei felt an unprecedented blow to his self-confidence. When he finally achieved something, he brought out a number one to provoke, shit, blatant provocation...
Before reaching the sacred path, the number one power will never fall upon oneself.
Holy Path, Holy path, that's almost legend,
The legend that Cheng Fei often heard his father tell when he was a child...
"Heh, isn't it the strongest one? HMPH, one day I'll be as strong as the uncle."
This year, Cheng Fei is already fourteen years old. Time flies, but in Cheng Fei's view, these nine months have been the most fulfilling nine months in the past decade or so.
After nine months, the superficial relationship with Wei Qing has finally improved a little bit compared to nine months ago.
Just a tiny bit, almost negligible.
According to Wei Qing, there are levels of magic, in ascending order of power: Level One, Level Two, Level Three, Level Four... Level 9, Ultimate magic, Forbidden magic.
And the power of the same kind of magic varies greatly when cast at different levels. For example, a Level 1 Fireball can burn a pig, but a Level 2 Fireball can burn an elephant, and a level 3 Fireball can... The more it goes on, the more incredibly powerful it becomes, especially after the ultimate magic, which is powerful enough to burn mountains and rivers, and even destroy the heavens and the earth...
Of course, when different people cast the same level of the same kind of magic, the power may vary.
A few days later, Wei Qing suddenly found Cheng Fei and said, "You can leave here now."
"Ah, what did you say?" Cheng Fei seemed not to have heard clearly,
"You must leave here now."
"Oh -- why? Aren't I doing just fine here? No, no, I can't leave,"
"If you don't go, someone will take your life soon," she said, still flat.
Cheng Fei suddenly remembered the two assassins that the three brothers had met at the foot of the mountain nine months ago,
"HMPH, let's go. This shabby place is really uncomfortable to live in."
