But in the end, his spiritual sea of ​​consciousness was still damaged by the shock. It was only when he saw the tearful eyes of several girls that he realized that he had been in a coma for seven days.

During these seven days, they took turns to take care of him. Fortunately, due to the existence of the Eye Demon, there were no high-level magical beasts near the swamp, otherwise people of their level would have died hundreds of times.

After drinking a bottle of mental strength repair potion, Lin Xingchen finally got rid of the dizziness when the effect of the medicine took effect. He could not continue the journey, so he had to arrange for people to go back.

After wandering around for two months before going out, he returned home lying down. This change made Lin Xingchen feel a little amused.

There were five of them when they went out, and one more guy was there when they came back, a little kid of about twelve or thirteen who also looked sickly.

This little brat with black hair, black eyes and black clothes would secretly eat a few pieces of food from time to time, and whenever Xia and Ellie saw him, they would curse him loudly.

But this guy is very single, and no matter how the two sisters scold or beat him, he still does what he wants.

"Okay, Xia, stop scolding me, don't you see he doesn't care about you at all!

Besides, have you ever seen a black dragon being killed by scolding? If you really want to punish him, just don’t give him the food at dinner time! " Lin Xingchen, who was upset by the noise, had to give Xia some advice.

When the little brat heard that there would be no dinner, he immediately quit, bared his white teeth and stared at Lin Xingchen fiercely, as if blaming him for coming up with some bad idea.

When Xia saw that the little boy dared to bare his teeth to the uncle, he grabbed the long stick in his hand and hit him on the head. The long stick broke immediately. The little boy gave Xia an idiot look, and finally thought about it, touched his head and hid away.

"Little Black Dragon, you are already free, why are you still following us? Why don't you go back to your own home to recuperate?" Looking at this thick-skinned guy, Lin Xingchen had no idea what to do with him.

According to Jia and the others, the black dragon, which was nearly dying from its injuries, miraculously came back to life after lying on the ground for a day.

After that, he got involved with Xia and the others. According to him, he came here accidentally when he was out for fun more than ten years ago, and was controlled by the Eye Demon.

During the time he was controlled, all his thoughts and actions were controlled by the Eye Demon. He wanted to escape from the Eye Demon's control all the time. Unfortunately, if the Eye Demon let the black dragon go, he would have no thugs to hunt and protect his own safety, so he took great care of him.

About 70% of the Eye Demon's mental power was used to maintain mental control over the black dragon. Now that Lin Xingchen helped him kill the Eye Demon, he indirectly helped him break free from its control. He had nowhere else to go, so he followed everyone back.

However, Jia and others were very disdainful of his statement. They all believed that the little black dragon was just greedy for the food cooked by Jia.

The black dragon is just like the dark elves in the demon world. They are famous for their cunningness and shamelessness. Although the dark elves have a bad reputation, everyone has accepted their existence after tens of thousands of years of getting along with them.

If the black dragons were not so rare in number and each one was so powerful that ordinary demons could not face them at all, these greedy guys would have been killed long ago.

Black dragons share many of the same attributes as dark elves, but they have one more attribute than dark elves: greed. These guys have a great interest in collecting anything that shines.

The group returned home quietly, and their lives returned to normal as before. After drinking a sip of the marrow of the Tree of Life, Lin Xingchen put the cup down and looked at the walnut-sized stone in front of him to pack his things.

Lin Xingchen found this thing inside the Eye Demon's cut open body after he woke up. This thing is similar to the magic core of a Warcraft, but it is many times rarer and more precious than a magic core.

Although Eye Demons are not uncommon in the abyss, those that grow to the monarch level are rare. This creature is quite intelligent. Once it reaches a certain level, it will look for some hidden and remote places to hide.

It basically never shows up except when eating. It was their misfortune to encounter the Eye Demon this time, but after killing the Eye Demon, it would be Lin Xingchen's great fortune.

Every monarch-level eye demon will condense its own spiritual crystal, something similar to a magic core. For a magician, this kind of thing is like a divine artifact.

The achievements of every magician are determined by their mental power, and the Eye Demon crystal can allow the owner to continuously increase his or her mental power as long as they are transformed.

Not only will this increase not cause any side effects to the holders, but more importantly, there is no upper limit to this increase.

Lin Xingchen held the crystal in his hand and looked at it for a long time. He had been thinking about how to create this crystal for several days. Finally, he chose a necklace over a ring.

This means that his carving skills can only be considered intermediate now, thanks to Edwin's teaching in the past. Edwin himself is a skilled sculptor.

As his disciple, I naturally learned some things as well, and engraving is also one of the basic subjects of magic circles and inscriptions.

The reason for choosing necklaces is that the craftsmanship of necklaces is relatively simple. Another reason is that necklaces have a greater degree of conservation in terms of consumables compared to rings.

A larger necklace can be used as a decoration, but a ring that is too big will affect his daily life and combat.

"Hu..." He took a deep breath, calming his mind and hands, and then the carving knife in his hand made the first cut on the crystal.

The lines drawn above and the patterns that had evolved many times in his heart gradually took shape with each of Lin Xingchen's cuts. The shape of the crystal condensed by this Eye Demon was the same as the Eye Demon, and it looked very casual. If it was really mainly elliptical or circular like the magic core, it would be easier for Lin Xingchen to deal with it.

An isolation barrier was set up outside the bedroom. In order to avoid some accidents, Blake, who was able to endure loneliness, was arranged at the door. This crystal was very important to Lin Xingchen and could not be taken lightly.

The master was carving in the room, while the little apprentice Blake was constantly mixing potions outside. This time he was challenging a series of extremely difficult potions among the intermediate potions.

This is a topic that Lin Xingchen specially selected for him. This potion is also a special potion made by Lin Xingchen himself. It is an upgraded version of his own original primary strength and recovery potions.

The efficacy and ability of the potion have been significantly improved, but the difficulty and the selection of herbs are also very demanding. Blake began to try this series of preparations after returning home.

With the completion of the last cut, the original stone-like crystal has now turned into a tear-shaped pendant. The style of this pendant is a bit large, as big as a red date, but the size has never been a concern for Lin Xingchen.

He only cared about the benefits it could bring him, and this necklace, which he named the Eye of Augmentation, was finally completed.

The moment he strung together the snow silk that had been prepared long ago and put it on to activate it, Lin Xingchen felt a very delicate spiritual power beginning to drill into his sea of ​​consciousness.

This feeling became clearer when he was meditating, and the necklace could also help increase the speed of his original mental training. Two-way blessing equals double happiness. Lin Xingchen smiled, swept the garbage away, and walked out of his room happily.

Blake's configuration outside the house had also reached a very critical step, but unfortunately he was affected by the sound of Lin Xingchen opening the door and failed in the last step.

Looking at the bottle of potion in the little apprentice's hand, Lin Xingchen shook his head and demonstrated it again to Blake.

"It's not wrong to concentrate on mixing the potion, but a small disturbance like this caused your potion, which could have been successful, to fail. Do you know where the problem lies?"

Blake pondered for a while before saying, "Perhaps it's because I care too much about it, so I can never do it as easily as you do, Master."

"Since you know where the problem lies, can you tell me what you are worried about? I have told you the tricks and techniques of the potion, but you have not had a single successful experience from the time in the swamp until now. Are you trying to tell me that you are only at this level to prove that I was blind and misjudged you?" Lin Xingchen's words were very serious.

Blake broke out in a cold sweat after hearing this, and kept saying he didn't dare! "Blake, everyone has many mountains in their heart. Whether you can climb over them or stay at the foot of the mountain depends on yourself. As a master, I can teach you many things, but I can't teach you how to be yourself.

No matter what ambitions you have or what other ideas you have, I want to tell you that men should be like water.

In a well you should be calm and still, in a stream you need to be gentle and continuous, and in a river or sea you have to follow your heart.

Whether you are calm as a mirror or turbulent as a storm, you need to let the world know you. Only when your name is resounding throughout the demon world can you prove something that others do not agree with, because at that time, even if you fart, others will say that your fart smells good. "Lin Xingchen has always known about his little apprentice's knot, but he believes that this knot will naturally dissipate when he continues to make breakthroughs in potions.

But looking at the current situation, this knot has hindered his progress. Lin Xingchen is not a good teacher, so his method is much simpler and cruder, and he puts everything in front of Blake.

It is up to him to climb higher on these old scars or be defeated by the darkest things in his heart.
