Chapter 271: Applause, Heavenly Sound, and Promotion
Chapter 271: Applause, Heavenly Sound, and Promotion
Li Yuan did not go out for the whole day. He stayed in the house, trying and exploring this new talisman.
"call!"
Li Yuan rubbed his wrist. There was a thick stack of papers on the table, filled with various messages.
As his mental strength grew, his memory improved greatly, but of course it was safer to write it down.
"The value of listening to music is related to the people and things involved in the message. The higher the status and the higher the martial arts, the higher the value."
"The Listening to Sounds Talisman has a great deal of randomness, but the sound I hear comes from within a certain range centered on me. This range seems to be larger the higher the incense used..."
"Exploring the mysteries and listening to the voices of all things, what I can listen to is not limited to humans, or even limited to living things?"
"The medium needed for listening to the sound is a rare treasure, not limited to incense. But for now, I only have incense..."
……
After storing the written information into the military space, Li Yuan rubbed his temples under the oil lamp, looking thoughtful and summarizing the rules.
He had no intention of exploring the principles behind the Palm Sound Talisman for the time being, but as he recalled and pondered, he suddenly remembered the Evil God Cult.
"Could it be that the divination of the Evil God Cult is based on a similar principle? Burning incense and offering sacrifices, and receiving guidance from the Evil God?"
Li Yuan was guessing in his heart for a long time, then he let out a long breath, closed his eyes slightly, and entered the military control space again.
The wooden scroll with sheepskin patterns glowed with a faint white light, and a hint of blue could be seen in the white light:
"After listening to the first-level sound 200 times, the Palm Sound Talisman can be promoted."
The promotion of the Palm Sound Talisman is much more intuitive than the Palm Weapon Talisman, and it looks much simpler. One only needs to constantly listen to the sounds of heaven and earth to be promoted.
In less than a day, the Zhang Yin Lu could be promoted.
"The heavenly music can only be heard once every ten years. It should be heard as early as possible, so that it can enter the cooling stage after it is used..."
Li Yuan did not hesitate. Before his Palm Sound Talisman was promoted, he would naturally use this opportunity.
What if the cooldown is reset after promotion?
"used!"
Li Yuan was very decisive. As soon as he thought about it, he chose to use this opportunity to listen to the sounds of heaven and earth.
hum!
The wooden tablet shone brightly.
Li Yuan did not resist and let the light envelope him. A trembling sound that came from nowhere exploded from his heart.
In an instant, he felt his heart surging, and countless noises intertwined and changed in his mind, making it extremely noisy.
At first, Li Yuan wanted to resist, but the moment the noise sounded, he no longer had this idea.
Too noisy.
In just a moment, Master Li Dao felt like he was going to explode.
boom!
After a moment, countless noises disappeared. Before Li Yuan could come to his senses, he felt a huge force suddenly pushing him upwards.
hum!
Li Yuan jumped out unconsciously. He looked around with wide eyes and saw his body still sitting under the oil lamp.
And he himself, like a leaf swept by the wind, involuntarily floated beyond the sky.
Houses, bamboo forests, hills, peaks...
It soared into the sky in an instant, and the light and shadow around it changed so drastically that Li Yuan felt a little dazzled.
"Soul leaving the body?"
This thought popped up in Li Yuan's mind.
The first step in achieving master level in blood transfusion is for the soul to leave the body!
Throughout history, countless quasi-grandmasters have been stuck and died at this step, but he has achieved it?
Li Yuan was surprised and happy, but before the thought flashed through his mind, the next moment, the light and shadows around him stopped moving.
Li Yuan looked around. He seemed to have really turned into a gust of cold wind, floating among the hills. Birds flew by from time to time, but did not notice his presence.
"What is this place?"
When Li Yuan was wondering, he was suddenly startled. He looked up and saw clouds and mist rolling.
A ferocious, yet majestic and sacred dragon head emerged!
A green dragon soars in the sky.
"?!"
This giant blue-black dragon is nearly a hundred meters long, and its scales are like the finest armor, exuding a cold color.
Li Yuan saw a hint of red!
[Blue Dragon Armor (Level 9)]
【? ? ? 】
【? ? ? 】
Ninth-order divine armor!
Li Yuan, who didn't know what state he was in, was a little dumbfounded, but the scene that happened immediately shocked him even more.
"hold head high!"
In the sky, a blue dragon roared, the sound could be heard for hundreds of miles. The sea of clouds was torn apart by the sound waves, which spread far away.
Then, the Azure Dragon swooped down like a streak of blue lightning, and in a flash it had passed through a hundred miles of land.
He transformed into a middle-aged man wearing green armor and with a slender physique.
The middle-aged man wore a purple-gold crown and stood on the top of the mountains with his hands hanging down. His body was majestic and powerful, and every inch of his muscles and bones seemed to be born specifically for fighting.
Cold and powerful.
Even though they were an unknown distance away, Li Yuan felt his heart tremble.
Man turns into dragon, dragon turns into man!
Even though I had heard from Old Han that a quasi-grandmaster who had mastered blood transfusion could transform into a spirit beast, the impact I saw with my own eyes was obviously much greater.
Especially this middle-aged man, who was a hundred-meter-long dragon in the previous moment, and turned into a human form in the next moment.
"Who is this person?"
Li Yuan heard the middle-aged man's name as soon as he thought of it.
In the sky, flames flickered, and a spiritual bird like an eagle or a crane, swirling in the flames, flapped its wings and came:
"Brother Zhuiyang is here early!"
The spiritual bird descended from the sky and transformed into a handsome young man dressed in white.
Chasing the sun?
Chi Zhuiyang!
Li Yuan was shocked, he was familiar with this name, this person ranked second on the list of heroes published by Yunshu Tower.
The most powerful man among the immortals on earth, is only a step away from reaching the realm of grandmaster.
"The second best hero, Chi Zhuiyang, has the Blue Dragon Armor... the ultimate master, the ultimate divine armor..."
Li Yuan was a little dazed. He found that he had also floated to the top of the mountain, not far from Chi Zhuiyang, but the latter did not notice anything.
He breathed a sigh of relief and then looked at the handsome young man in white.
"Murong Qing!"
Anyone who can stand shoulder to shoulder with Chi Zhuiyang is obviously no ordinary person.
Murong Qing, the fifth person on the Heroes List, although he has no divine armor, the divine sword he holds is also a top-grade divine weapon:
[Divine Fire Phoenix Sword (Level 9)]
"These two people..."
Li Yuan was a little surprised. The heavenly music he was listening to actually involved two top masters?
I was also a little curious, what were these two planning to do together...
"Master Qin has been missing for more than a year. Even if he is not dead, I am afraid he has been seriously injured!"
Chi Zhuiyang's eyes were gloomy.
"Zhaixing Tower dispatched twelve top assassins to kill the provincial governors in various parts of the imperial court, and the Jingping Division mobilized in large numbers..."
Murong Qing added.
"The Star Picking Tower should be empty! This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!"
"Only if we get the Bafang Tower can we get rid of all this..."
The two top masters looked at each other, their eyes were as solid as substance, and Li Yuan felt a little dazzling. The aura of these two people was too terrifying.
"Old Dragon Head was ranked fifth on the Heroes List during his heyday. These two..."
Li Yuan concentrated and listened to the conversation between the two people. His mind was wandering and he felt a little suspicious. Are these two people going to attack Zhaixing Tower?
"Calculating the time, it's almost time."
On the top of the mountain, the two stopped for a moment. Chi Zhuiyang muttered to himself and then stepped forward. Murong Qing smiled slightly and then walked towards the cliff.
hum~
Li Yuan subconsciously followed, only to feel as if he had penetrated a thin film that was barely there.
Then, the mountains and sea of clouds in front of us all disappeared, and in their place was an endless land.
And a tower standing above the earth, so magnificent that it does not seem like it could appear in this era.
Standing tall from the ground to the sky!
Li Yuan looked up. The tower was probably hundreds or thousands of stories high. He couldn't see the end of it at a glance. He could only see ancient characters as big as mountains on the tower.
And the extremely dazzling black light, this is a heavenly weapon:
【Eight-sided Tower (11th level)】
【? ? ? 】
【? ? ? 】
Good guy!
The top master, the magic sword, the magic armor, the heavenly weapons, Li Yuan was dazzled after seeing so many things in such a short moment.
"Ochifang Tower!"
Looking up at the tower, Chi Zhuiyang muttered to himself, with a startling light flashing in his eyes:
"Master Qin is not here, who can stop me today?!"
Click!
It was like thunder falling in the mountains.
Chi Zhuiyang took a step forward and transformed into a hundred-meter-long dragon. While letting out a deafening dragon roar, he pounced towards the Bafang Temple.
Murong Qing smiled and walked forward with his sword.
"These two people..."
Before Li Yuan could come to his senses, he heard loud thunder, which were huge arrows shooting out from the ground!
A giant arrow broke through the air, covering Chi Zhui Yang. At the foot of the Eight Directions Tower, more figures appeared, some soaring into the air, and some howling.
They met the attacking Chi Zhuiyang and Murong Qing.
"Chi Zhuiyang, Murong Qing! How dare you, two traitors, come to my Zhaixing Tower and act so recklessly?!"
Click~
With a roar, the scene in front of him was completely shattered, and the shouts, collisions, and fighting figures disappeared in an instant.
Li Yuan was involuntarily drifting away, and in a quick glance he saw dozens of masked assassins from the Zhaixing Tower.
"That ghost face..."
hum!
With just a quick glance, Li Yuan came back to his senses. He was gasping for breath and felt like he was drowning.
"It's not an illusion. My breathing stopped after my soul left my body just now... If it weren't for my long breath, I would have suffocated to death."
After panting for a while, Li Yuan sensed the wooden scroll and heard the dull and rigid voice:
[Under the Eight-Directions Tower, fierce fighting is taking place over a Heavenly Destiny Mystical Weapon...]
[The Eight-Direction Pagoda seems to contain a shocking secret...]
[The Eight-sided Pagoda seems to favor people with all shapes, especially at midnight on the eighth day of the eighth month of every year...]
[Ten Thousand Beasts Sitting in Forgetfulness, Dragon Demon Heart Sutra...]
……
The words on the wooden scroll were as clear as flowing water. Normally, the message only had one line, but this heavenly sound contained more than a thousand words.
Li Yuan was still reciting silently at first, but then he decisively took out a pen and paper and quickly wrote it down.
After a while, the sound disappeared and Li Yuan finished writing the last word.
"call!"
Wiping the sweat from his forehead, Li Yuan shook the paper with wet ink. His writing was messy, but it did not affect the reading.
The above are the key points he summarized.
"The Eight Directions Pagoda is in the Zhaixing Tower. The owner of the Zhaixing Tower is Qin Shixian... Chi Zhuiyang and the other two covet the Eight Directions Pagoda. Some people angrily denounced the two as traitors..."
"The Dragon Demon Heart Sutra seems to be in the Eight Directions Pagoda. What great secret does this Heavenly Destiny Mysterious Weapon contain? Riddler, right?"
"This tower tends to be multi-faceted..."
Li Yuan put down the paper and frowned slightly. He didn't see much in that quick glance, but it seemed...
"Isn't Old Han there too?"
The more Li Yuan thought about it, the more he felt it was possible. In the letter left by Han Chuijun, he vaguely mentioned that he was going to look for the Dragon Demon Heart Sutra.
Since this peerless magic skill is in the Bafang Tower, then Old Han is likely to be there too...
"Zhaixinglou is the world's number one assassin organization after all. Even if it is empty... Chi Zhuiyang and the others are targeting the Bafang Tower, so there shouldn't be any problem."
Li Yuan was somewhat worried.
"Old Han is not a fool, there shouldn't be any problem, right?"
Li Yuan rubbed his face. There was too much information contained in this heavenly sound. He felt that this news was very important to him:
"August 8, this time..."
After writing down all the key points, it took Li Yuan a while to put away the paper. By then, he was already very tired.
But he still managed to sense the palm sound:
"Promotion!"
hum!
Accompanied by a buzzing sound, Li Yuan heard the loud noise again.
The promotion of the Palm Sound Talisman is no different from that of the Palm Weapon Talisman. After a few breaths, the promotion is complete:
【Second level palm sound talisman】
[Number of times you can listen to the heavenly sound: Once every five years (available)]
[Already opened: Listening to the Sounds (Level 2)]
[Listen to the second-level sound 200 times to advance to the third level]
"Once every ten years has become once every five years... Reset the cooldown? Well, luckily I used it in advance, otherwise it would have been a waste of an opportunity."
Li Yuan felt relieved, and without trying to sense any changes after the Palm Sound Talisman was promoted to the second level, he fell asleep.
……
Li Yuan slept for a long time, and when he woke up, it was already noon.
He relaxed his muscles and found that his mental strength had increased significantly, perhaps because his soul had left his body?
"I have passed the stage of soul leaving the body ahead of time?"
Li Yuan changed his mind and thought that this was an unexpected surprise.
"Eight-Direction Tower, Star-Picking Tower..."
He sat on the bed, recalling what he had seen and heard while listening to the heavenly music, and his heart was inevitably touched.
The impact of the assassination of the king by the master of Zhaixing Tower is still spreading and has already affected Zhaixing Tower.
"This incident has a huge impact. No wonder the Taoist masters and hall masters haven't come back for so long. The angry court is also terrifying."
Li Yuan stood up.
For a long time, he had no impression of the imperial court, mainly because its presence was not strong.
But as the common ruler of the world, even in name only, the power of the imperial court was still above that of Dao Zong. In other words,
"The imperial court is the most powerful sect in the world, right?"
With a sigh in his heart, Li Yuan pushed open the door. The little mouse squeaked and rushed over. It had been hung for a long time yesterday.
"..."
Li Yuan then remembered and hurriedly apologized, comforted him, and took out a top-grade Yuan-boosting Pill as compensation.
"That little tiger cub hasn't come back yet?"
Putting the little mouse down, Li Yuan frowned slightly. In the two hundred times he listened yesterday, many of them mentioned the Mountain of Beasts.
It is said that the Beast Mountain has been quite turbulent recently...
"Could it be this little guy?"
This thought popped up in Li Yuan's mind, and the more he thought about it, the more possible it seemed. Although this tiger cub was small, its strength was not weak.
He glanced at the little mouse, which quickly went back into the hole in the wall. After a while, it rushed out again in a rage, squeaking.
"..."
Li Yuan closed the gate and went to Chungang Peak carrying the hammer.
