Chapter 12 The Contract of Living and Dying
Lin Changqing finally reached the third level of Qi refining. The next day, Lin Changqing and his grandfather sat opposite each other in the secret room of grandpa's house.
"Qing'er, what are your plans? Do you want to wait until the third level of Qi Refining is more stable, or do you plan to contract that spiritual seed now."
Lin Changqing thought for a while and said: " I will follow Grandpa's arrangements."
Grandpa nodded with a smile, "I have been worried that your cultivation level is too low and the contract will not be successful. Now that you have just advanced, why don't you wait for a while to stabilize yourself? If you feel you have no problem, come and contract it again
There should be no problem with your energy-raising technique now, right? "
"No problem, I successfully cast it three times last night. "
"That's good, then you can go to the General Affairs Hall to change the identity jade tag later. What do you plan to do with the 10 acres of spiritual land given by your family? ”
“The spirit seed will talk about this after I make the contract. Maybe I won’t choose the main peak. I want to open up spiritual fields by myself, so that I can open more by then. "
"It would be a bit inconvenient if you don't choose the main peak. You haven't reached the fourth level of Qi Refining yet, so you can't use the art of flying with weapons. Then try not to choose a place too far away. ”
"I understand, grandpa, it won't be too far."
After leaving grandpa's house, he walked directly to the General Affairs Hall, which can be said to be the busiest place in the family.
This is where the family publishes tasks, submits the results after completing the tasks, distributes rewards, and redeems spiritual stones, elixirs, and magic weapons.
Coming to the General Affairs Hall, it is usually a very lively place, but today it is rare that there are no people. It just so happened that the Four Elders Forest was prosperous and free. Ask his old man to exchange for jade tokens.
"Hello, Fourth Grandpa, I'm here to exchange for the identity jade token." Lin Changqing said.
"It's Xiao Qing'er, you've reached the third level of Qi refining so quickly! Not bad, keep working hard. How are you doing with your practice of cultivating energy and rebirth?"
"It's no problem, I'll show it to you. Let's see."
"Okay, let's put it on the two jujube trees at the door."
Lin Changqing placed a Yuan Energating Technique on each of the jujube trees at the door. Each spiritual plant can only withstand one secret spell in a short period of time. Too much will damage the origin of the spiritual plant.
The fourth elder observed the two spiritual trees and nodded. "That's right! It's the effect of the energy-raising technique."
He asked for Lin Changqing's original jade plaque and replaced it with a new one. Lin Changqing skillfully dropped a drop of blood on it.
I saw an additional line of words on the jade plaque, first-level low-grade spiritual planter. The contribution points increased by two hundred points, and now there are 280 contribution points.
"Do you want to apply for Ling Tian?" the fourth elder asked.
"Thank you, Fourth Grandpa. No need for now. We will talk about it later." Lin Changqing replied.
After saying goodbye to the fourth elder, Lin Changqing went to the elixir garden to collect some insect meat. Then I went home and continued practicing.
The main thing now is to step up and consolidate the cultivation of the third level of Qi refining, so as not to look so vain at first glance.
Lin Changqing fell back into the familiar rhythm of practice and study.
Hard work will always pay off. Three months have passed, and Lin Changqing feels that his cultivation has been completely consolidated and there is still some improvement.
The first grade of junior high school has also grown feathers and can fly freely.
I have to admire the tenacious vitality of spirit beasts. If you put the first grader in the spiritual plant garden, he will find insects to eat.
Even if you tell it not to touch the elixirs and fruits inside, it will understand. Not once did he move. Very very smart. Now I can help my grandparents and aunts catch bugs.
On this day, Lin Changqing and his grandfather were sitting opposite each other in the secret room of grandpa’s house.
"Qing'er, you have decided to contract it, right?" "Yes, Grandpa, I think it's okay."
Grandpa nodded, Come with me.
Take Lin Changqing to a training room. This natal contract formation has been prepared for two months.
He patted the storage bag and took out the jade box, and gave the jade box containing the spiritual seed to Lin Changqing. He signed the life contract and could not be disturbed. Wait a moment before you close your practice room.
After that, he walked out, and when he came to the door, he came back and poured three thousand spiritual stones next to the contract circle. He said, "Don't force it. If you can't make a contract, don't force it."
"I know, don't worry, grandpa."
After grandpa went out, Lin Changqing closed the training room. I felt a little inexplicably excited. He took a long breath and calmed down.
Sitting cross-legged in the center of the contract circle, I opened the jade box. More than two years later, I saw this colorful and beautiful halo again.
Lin Changqing concentrated his mind and began to use the method of contracting the natal spiritual plant inherited from the spiritual plant master. After finishing a complex set of magic formulas and submerging them into the spiritual seed, Lin Changqing dropped three more drops of essence and blood on it. It was also successfully absorbed into the spiritual seed. It should be done, I am secretly happy.
At this time, the spirit seed began to absorb Lin Changqing's spiritual energy, and the speed was very fast. Lin Changqing was startled, and quickly took out the Qi Recovery Pill and ate one. Soon the spiritual energy was absorbed again, and he ate it again. One, still the same result.
After finishing the entire bottle of Qi Rejuvenation Pill, Lin Changqing was still a little panicked because he still didn't have enough spiritual energy. I wanted to throw the spiritual seed out of my hand, but it seemed like it was growing on my hand, and it didn't come out even after several attempts. Lin Changqing was completely scared.
Lin Changqing felt like he was going to be sucked dry. Suddenly it occurred to me that I still had a century-old red fruit, so I quickly took it out and ate it in a few bites. Feeling better.
But it's still not enough. Suddenly there was a huge suction force. Lin Changqing couldn't hold on anymore and fainted. All that was sucked out of his body was his skin and bones.
The three thousand spiritual stones around the contract circle were all turned into ashes, and all the spiritual energy was absorbed by the spiritual seeds. At this time, the spiritual seed turned into a colorful light and disappeared into Lin Changqing's sea of consciousness.
At this time, Lin Changqing was standing in the void. In the distance around him, he could see clusters of nebulae, slowly rotating like the Milky Way.
Lin Changqing rubbed his eyes. Where am I now? Could it be that I have traveled through time again? I haven’t had time to repay my grandfather, parents, and family for their kindness! Is this time travel again?
At this time, one tree occupies the sky above the entire galaxy, and the root system below connects countless galaxies. A huge and boundless willow tree appears in front, its branches swaying gently. Lin Changqing was so shocked that his thoughts stopped when he saw it. I don’t know how long it took for me to come back to my senses. Oh my God! This is the real spiritual root of heaven and earth!
At this time, a hole opened in the trunk of this giant willow tree that reached the sky, and many colorful light groups burst out from inside. It flew away in all directions and quickly disappeared.
One of the light groups was flying towards Lin Changqing, waiting for it to get closer. Only then did he realize that it was the spiritual seed with the colorful halo. It flashed into Lin Changqing's mind.
"Boom" was a loud sound like the beginning of the world. An ancient rune formed in his mind. The amazing thing is that Lin Changqing actually understands the meaning of this rune. A life-and-death contract.
A voice with boundless majesty sounded in my mind. "Are you willing?"
Lin Changqing knew in his heart that this was the voice of the will of heaven and earth. Suddenly he subconsciously said: "Agree!"
The ancient rune exploded in his mind with a bang.
The voice sounded again. "The contract is successful. Grant!"
It took a while before Lin Changqing came back to his senses. The main reason was that the vibration of that voice was too strong for the soul.
Looking at the giant willow tree, the giant willow tree smiled slightly at Lin Changqing. Lin Changqing didn't know why he knew that this was a smile. It feels very warm and reassuring. Just like facing your own mother.
Lin Changqing understood and entrusted his child to Lin Changqing. He also regards Lin Changqing as his own child.
This is a very, very great maternal love that has spanned countless universes and countless time rivers.
Tongtian Juliu was very pleased to see that Lin Changqing understood what he meant. Gently swinging the branches, Lin Changqing knew that this meant saying goodbye.
Knowing that we may never see each other again. I felt extremely reluctant to give up, and my eyes were filled with tears.
