A few days later, in a cave in a valley hundreds of miles away from Changqing City, Su Hao, dressed in black, sat cross-legged quietly with a frown on his face.
"This mark is indeed difficult to resolve. The reason it can last is that it continuously absorbs your energy and blood, and it will become stronger and stronger. Your body will become weaker and weaker, and it will become more and more difficult to suppress it..."
Su Hao frowned. He had been in seclusion here for the past few days. On the one hand, he used the relic to suppress it and isolate it from the outside world to prevent the masters of the Wang family from taking advantage of it to come to him, and on the other hand, he observed its changes. It was more difficult to solve than he had imagined.
It is difficult to get rid of, and it will continue to suck his life force to grow stronger. This is probably not something a Blood Exchange Realm warrior can do!
"What if... you die? Without life essence for it to absorb, it will naturally dissipate."
Su Hao's mind also moved, and he thought of a way to solve it.
If I were to die, the mark would no longer have the essence of life to nourish it, and it would naturally dissipate!
Thinking of this, Su Hao took out something from the bag he was carrying.
It was a piece of dead wood that looked ordinary. An ordinary person would not find anything unusual in his hands, but with Su Hao's perception, he could sense a vibrant vitality coming from inside.
This piece of dead wood was naturally obtained from Huang Xuanba's treasure house. The aura within it was very similar to that of Huang Xuanba. Su Hao guessed that it contained the martial arts inheritance that Huang Xuanba had practiced.
During this period of time, Su Hao had focused all his energy on practicing the Vajra Relic Sutra and breaking through to the Blood Exchange Realm. He attacked in anger just after the breakthrough because of Wang Changan's calculations.
Now that he has been marked, Su Hao wonders if the martial arts contained in it can help him overcome the difficulties?
Su Hao concentrated his mind and sensed the situation inside the dead tree. Inside the dead tree, in the midst of the vibrant vitality, characters appeared one by one, and they gradually became clearer in Su Hao's perception!
"The magic skill of withering and flourishing, withering and flourishing every year, wildfire cannot burn it all, spring breeze blows and it grows again... Practicing this skill will experience the cycle of life and death, and reverse life and death at the cost of life and vitality..."
And just as Su Hao expected, this piece of dead wood did contain a martial arts inheritance, and it was not an ordinary martial arts, but a magic martial arts!
The more he studied, the more amazed Su Hao was. This magic skill of withering and flourishing was extremely mysterious. It was not inferior to the Vajra Relic Sutra at all, and was even better than it.
The characteristic of this technique is about 'lifespan' and 'vitality'. If one practices it to the most advanced level, other than damage to the skull and heart, other injuries are not considered serious.
Like Huang Xuanba before, in fact, although the blood exchange warriors have strong vitality and can burn blood to repair the damage, they can't be as fast as Huang Xuanba. Even the broken bones and tendons can be recovered in a short time. This is the effect of the withered and prosperous magic skill.
Not only that, when the withered and flourishing magic is practiced to a high level, the vitality is incredible. Even if the body energy is seriously injured and the vitality is damaged, as long as there is a breath left, it can be revitalized like spring grass and return to the peak state. It can even make the young get older and the old get younger!
"This withering and flourishing magic skill is indeed worth learning. If you can control yourself to enter the state of 'withering and flourishing', which is almost the same as death, then the mark on your body that cannot absorb your vitality will naturally dissipate!"
Su Hao's eyes lit up, and he realized that this withering and flourishing magic skill was indeed extraordinary. It was extremely worth practicing for him now, and it should solve his urgent problem!
However, the reason why this withered and flourishing magic skill is called "magic skill" is, of course, because of its difficulty in practicing and its powerful side effects.
In the process of cultivation, life span will continue to pass away at a speed of ten or a hundred times, and one will quickly become old. If one cannot succeed in cultivation, the lost life span will be truly lost!
But if one succeeds in practicing, one will be rejuvenated, and his lifespan and vitality will be much greater than before!
Therefore, the younger the practitioner of the withering and flourishing magic skills are, the better, because it can prolong their lifespan.
Of course, there are other methods to assist in the practice of the Kuruo Rong magic, that is to use the lives of others to make up for the loss of one's own lifespan, but this belongs to the category of falling into the devil's way. Once you choose this path, you will need to keep using the lives of others to make up for the loss of your own lifespan, and the demand will become greater and greater.
And it is obvious that Huang Xuanba chose this path, starting the killing just for his own cultivation.
It's a pity that Huang Xuanba was unable to practice it to the highest level, until his moment of glory, and eventually died at the hands of Su Hao!
"This martial art is a magical art... It's quite risky to practice it, and I have no other choice. But then again, even with my talent, I can't master it, and there are not many people in this world who can do it!"
Su Hao's eyes were burning, he never liked to do risky things, but he was definitely not a coward. What he had to do now was to cultivate this 'Withering and Flourishing Magic Art' and remove the mark on his body.
This is almost impossible for others to accomplish. When practicing the Withering and Flourishing Magic Art, one's life span will be rapidly lost at multiples. In addition, the marks on his body constantly absorb his vitality, so the difficulty has doubled.
And with Su Hao's character, he can't kill innocent people for the sake of practice like Huang Xuanba did. He has to rely on constant practice to push the withered and prosperous magic skills to a high level!
"Not only that, your potential is only one step away from the 200-point mark. Once it reaches 200 points, your talent may undergo another qualitative change. At that time, breaking the boundary between life and death will be easier."
Su Hao is firm in his beliefs, so what if he comes from a noble family? What about the mark left by the top powerhouse who was suspected to have undergone a blood transfusion? You can't kill him!
Su Hao sat cross-legged quietly, comprehending the artistic conception of 'withering and flourishing', and letting himself enter the state of withering and flourishing.
Gradually, Su Hao felt that he had turned into a big tree, full of vitality. Gradually, the big tree seemed to have experienced the cycle of seasons, and the green leaves turned a little yellow.
Withered and Flourishing Magic Skills (Beginner)
Potential: 198 points (Outstanding)
Within ten days, he had mastered the Withered and Flourishing Magic Skill. His talent and comprehension were enough to make even the late Huang Xuanba ashamed!
During this process, Su Hao felt that his energy and blood began to decline, and his body, which was originally in peak condition, gradually became tired. Su Hao did not hesitate, took out a bloodworm grass from his bag, and swallowed it into his stomach to replenish the consumption.
The treasures from Huang Xuanba and Wang Changan, including many rare exotic flowers and herbs, were used by Su Hao to replenish his rapidly depleted vitality and blood without any regret.
In the practice of Kuruo Rong magic, a month passed by in a flash.
Although it was only a short period of ten months, Su Hao felt that at least ten years had passed since his death, which made his youthful appearance look a little more aged!
Withered and Flourishing Magic Skill (Minor Achievement)
After Su Hao's three months of hard training, his Withered and Flourishing Magic Skill had successfully reached a minor level of success!
Su Hao's potential grew with the breakthrough of the Kuruo Magic Art, breaking through the 200-point potential barrier and crossing the threshold of qualitative change!
"boom!"
At this moment, Su Hao, who was sitting cross-legged, felt his brain roaring, and he seemed to have his soul out of his body. He rushed straight into the sky, came into the vast universe, and looked at the eternal stars.
They are high up in the sky, high above, and only the long years will cause slight changes to them.
"boom!"
In Su Hao's perception, those stars began to move strangely, as if they were being pulled by something and began to shake!
In the Great Yan Dynasty, the rolling mountains are like chess pieces scattered in an orderly manner. On the highest peak, a white-haired old man faces an empty chessboard, motionless, as if thinking about how to make his move.
Even if Mount Tai collapses before his eyes, he will not be shaken in the slightest.
"Um?"
Suddenly, the white-haired old man looked up at the night sky with a little surprise. In the night sky, the stars were shaking, and even meteors and meteorites streaked across the night sky, dragging a brilliant tail flame!
"Which thousand-year-old family is this, the celestial star descended from the royal saint?"
The white-haired old man couldn't help but show a trace of surprise on his face, and murmured something, but then he collected his thoughts and continued to observe the chessboard in front of him intently.
"The star descending from the earth! That direction is... Daqingzhou! Go check for babies born recently immediately. He must be among them. If you can take him in as your own, you will prosper for a thousand years!"
"A star descended from the earth? A peerless genius was born? If we can eat him alive, he will be reborn!"
Not only him, but also many aristocratic families and major sects in the Great Yan Dynasty have noticed the changes in the stars. This phenomenon implies the birth of a peerless genius.
If I could take him in and train him, he would surely become a peerless strong man in the future who could make my family prosperous for a thousand years!
If it is an enemy, we must respond in advance and kill it!
Some people in the Demon Sect even thought that if they could find this descending 'Star', they could use some secret methods to plunder his talents, try their best to make up for themselves, and achieve transformation.
However, those who were born as celestial stars were all protected by good fortune, and some divination and calculation methods could not accurately determine their whereabouts.
However, Su Hao had no idea that his potential had once again transformed and actually caused changes in the stars, alarming many aristocratic families in the Great Yan Dynasty and even some old monsters who had never appeared in the world. They all wanted to find this peerless genius who was the 'descended star'!
Withered and Flourishing Magic Skill (Minor Achievement)
Potential: 201 points (Descending Star)
The transformation of potential was completed. Su Hao opened his eyes, and a brilliant light shone in his eyes. He sighed sincerely: "Potential... has finally transformed again, and the star has descended to the world!"
The stars that descended from the earth are like the stars in the sky, which are beyond your reach.
For example, people often describe people as the reincarnation of Wenquxing or Ziweixing, which means that this person is not a human being, but a reincarnation who came from heaven.
Such a genius might not appear in the Great Yan Dynasty even in a hundred or several hundred years. Just like the stars in the sky, they can only fall from the sky due to various accidents!
