Chapter 023
There are faint clouds floating in the sky, and the wind and rain have just stopped. Today is a rare and good weather.
The sun was at the middle of the sky, and a figure floated in the middle of the lake. The man's skin was soaked and he walked up to the floating island step by step.
"Hehe, the task is finally done. I didn't expect it to be so difficult." Lin Xisuo cheered. He sat at the bottom of the lake for three days, and he prepared for these three days for a full year.
First, you must learn to breathe physically, use your pores all over your body to absorb oxygen in the lake, and then try to adapt to the water pressure at the bottom of the lake. When using the energy of the universe to transform the body, it is best to do it in a special environment. In the future, you will feel like you are in water when entering such an environment.
The last step is the most critical thing. It is to cooperate well with algae and integrate the spirit into one place to accurately capture the free elements of the universe, so as to incorporate it into the body and take it for your own use.
Free elements of the universe are also beneficial to algae. During the capture process, there is usually 20% loss. These 20% of the cosmic energy is almost all sucked into the body by the algae, which is considered as a reward for renting its body.
Lin Xisuo gained a lot. Although the symbol of the martial arts apprentice is to capture the free elements of the universe, it is not enough to rest assured by suffusing it in the body. Usually, it starts from the heart and spreads little by little along the blood vessels, from inside to outside, from deep to shallow, and the effect will be better. After Mana knew about this, she led everyone to sort it out and carefully control the free elements to enhance the physique. This is also the main reason why no one in the team has been promoted to the second level.
There are some tips for being promoted to a martial arts apprentice, such as constantly exerting abilities. Although it consumes cosmic energy, it has a benign effect on future applications. Lin Xisuo needs to maintain contact with algae and cannot run around, so he focuses on establishing connections with plants, which is quite effective.
Through the algae, Lin Xiso can clearly understand the changes in the weather over the past hundreds of days and nights, as well as the damage caused by the algae during the storm.
The plants also have feelings, especially the algae in the lake. They are very simple, primitive, and single.
Peacock once said that the plant ideas of other planets are more complicated because they are competing for light, soil, and water sources, and it is not necessarily as easy to touch with algae.
So Lin Xisuo is very lucky. He can find such a large primary training student. You must know that the entire lake surface has a diameter of eight or nine kilometers. Usually, plants with this volume are very self-defense. It is not easy to control them effectively? Not to mention using the help of people's extended thinking to capture the free elements of the universe. Unless they have strong spiritual power, they can be deterred through shock.
What Lin Xisuo had to do next was to constantly absorb cosmic energy through algae, thereby satisfying the qualitative transformation, generating source abilities on the original basis, completing life evolution, and becoming a first-level martial monk.
After being happy, Lin Xisuo thought to himself: "If you continue like this, you should be able to keep up with everyone's progress. If you are about to take a wrong step, you will face a situation of endless disaster. I really don't know when it will be?"
Just as Lin Xisuo was feeling a lot, a fierce battle was taking place in the Crater. The Red Storm sent direct star pirates to participate in the battle. Faced with the overwhelming attacks, the young men were in a panic and had to join forces to fight against the enemy under the command of Mana and another wise man.
Because Lin Xisuo had to practice hard, he took a month and a half off. In fact, he did not cause trouble in the team, and everyone was more efficient in fighting, so he tightened his belt and took out the treasured food and said goodbye to tears.
After sending away the plague god, everyone should have been happy, but the weather did not meet the wishes. The red storm suddenly increased the difficulty of the moon war and actually filled in their own people.
The fierce battle lasted for a day and a night, and twelve teenagers died. The star pirates lost thirty times that of this number. The two sides fought in a dark and could do everything they could. Almost all the star pirates who could survive were elites, and there were even three more powerful martial monks among the star pirates. It seemed that the strength of the Red Storm was unfathomable.
When Lin Xisuo came back, he found that the Crater had been beyond recognition. In order to protect Mana, Nord was seriously injured and needed to recuperate for a while, and couldn't help but scream: "Hey, hey, hey, no, right? Why is it so embarrassing if I'm not here? We didn't drag everyone down."
The silver-haired girl said angrily: "If you were here, how bad would you be? Those star pirates were too strong and carried a heat tracker. If it weren't for the coldness of Crowbakra, they would probably be even more embarrassing."
"Xiso, silver hair, you two are quiet, I have something to say."
Mana stood up, thought for a moment, and said to the five people: "Now that Xisuo has been successfully promoted to an apprentice of martial arts. With the Red Storm's abnormal increase in combat intensity, some things have to be clarified to you. This year, I asked Xisuo to cause trouble for everyone and expose many problems in advance to deal with more unpredictable crises in the future. The effect is pretty good. At least in this battle, except for Nord's injury, everyone escaped. This is the benefit of constantly running in and increasing the intensity of training. Your adaptability is at the forefront of everyone. However, this is not the focus of my topic. It has been almost two years since I came to this primitive planet. The catalytic agents that the star pirate injected us promote excessive division of mitochondria in cells. Every level is increased, the division speed will be faster until it can't bear it, and eventually lead to self-destruction."
Amon asked nervously: "Sister Mana, please make it clear. How can excessive cell division lead to self-destruction? Don't exaggerate, okay?"
Mana replied with a serious expression: "It is not an alarmist statement, but an objective fact. It is estimated that only by reaching the level of a level seven martial monk can we suppress the excess division caused by drugs. However, we use overdrawn vitality to complete the promotion. Not to mention level seven, it is difficult to reach even level five. The Red Storm has closed the door of hope for a long time, and the situation is not optimistic."
Crowbakra clenched his fists, his eyes full of hatred: "Damn it, I can't avenge my comrades, I can only exert my anger every month with those miscellaneous pieces. I'm really unwilling to accept it."
Everyone was silent for a while, and Mana immediately encouraged: "The Red Storm closed the door of hope, so we will pry the door open bit by bit. Everyone must be very strange. The cultivation mode I taught you not only did not help increase the speed of improvement, but was lagging behind greatly. In fact, the orthodox martial arts monks should be extremely slow. Only by laying a good foundation can they evolve to a higher level. This is one of them. There is another way to solve our problems and find a pharmacist. They are a group of martial arts monks with superb healing methods. In the least, they can alleviate the side effects of catalytic drugs, so that we can have time to advance to the seventh level so that we can survive better. Remember, no word that I said is allowed to be revealed now, don't blame me for being selfish. It is reasonable for a few people to reduce the speed of improvement by abnormally speaking. Once all survivors are like this, it will definitely attract the attention of Red Storm. It is very likely to kill us in advance. You must consider it clearly."
Amon's face improved slightly and he snorted, "I don't care about the other people. As long as the six of us survive, we can't repay their hatred from the Red Storm. Now I really want to thank God for giving us an angel of wisdom. Sister Mana, I will never forget my grace today."
"Okay, you haven't lost your faith, I'm very happy. It's time to carry out my training plan below. You will face stronger challenges and try to eliminate indiscriminate killing and slaughtering. That will make you lose your mind. Don't worry about how fast others are to improve. That's not a good thing. We are squandering our lives now. More than ten years have been shortened to one year, and our lifespan is not much. My goal is to make you truly strong people, get rid of the constraints of the red storm, and gain freedom in life. Let's work hard and work hard for it! Since ancient times, many words and deeds will kill themselves. The red storm will punish the crimes they committed, and they will definitely!"
In the sun, Mana stretched out her fist. Lin Xisuo suddenly realized, walked forward and stretched out her fist, and then the six fists were pressed together to form an unbreakable circle.
Time flies, and time passes. After two years, the battles are getting more intense every time. By the fourth year, the former young man had become a good guy, while the girl was graceful and was about to grow up.
There are eleven months left before the five-year period, and the survivors in the Crater remain at 122, which has been firmly fixed on this number for half a year, and no casualties have occurred.
The star pirates still came on time, regardless of wind and rain. In fact, they were also very scared, but they were also forced to come to the Craft Mountain and there was still a glimmer of hope. If they didn't come, they would probably have no hope.
Most of the teenagers in the Earth Ring Star became ruthless, and only Mana insisted on restraining the five people with reason, preventing them from becoming wild horses and acting recklessly. They even opened up the traps robbed by the Red Storm. They were too lazy to even ask for blue gold coins, and they specifically found hard bones to chew on them and honed their combat awareness.
Except for Lin Xisuo, all 121 people in the Crater reached the second level, and 78 of them had already entered the ranks of third-level martial monks, which was a world apart from when they came here. A total of twenty martial monks were sent out before and after the Red Storm, only two died in the mountains, and the remaining eighteen people left safely.
With the help of the auxiliary function of algae, Lin Xisuo should have entered the second level, but he forced himself to suppress it and focused his mind and cosmic energy on the specialized source ability.
Peacock Talisman reminds that the source ability is only an early product. After reaching a certain level, it will generate a "source space" between the stream of consciousness and the stream of native state, commonly known as the place of the mind.
Source space is like software. Through continuous development, the source capacity can steadily evolve, which is one of the indispensable processes for becoming a martial arts master.
The source space opens varies from person to person. The fastest one will appear before and after level three, and the slowest one will not be successful even if it is slower to level six or seven. In addition, the equipment differences, challenges that go beyond level occur frequently.
