"Brother Xiahou, although I can help you quickly break through to the peak of Grand Master, I don't know how to practice later. I will give you two choices now. One is to send you to the Imperial Palace to receive training after you break through to the peak of Grand Master.

The disadvantage of guiding the breakthrough to the Martial God is that once you reach the Martial God realm, you no longer have any lessons to learn from, and you can only explore everything on your own!"

Ding Ning said seriously: "The other option is to switch to ancient martial arts and slowly understand the power of the fire element rules. Although it is a little slower, the advantage is that you can follow the old path of the predecessors. As for the spiritual crystals needed for practice, you don't have to worry.

, I will bear all the responsibility, and I hope you will consider it carefully before making a decision."

Xia Hou was caught in a tangle. He knew that his qualifications were not outstanding, and he was able to get to where he is today only by wandering on the line of life and death supported by his obsession with revenge, and by breaking the shackles of the human body again and again.

If he had not met Ding Ning, he would have chosen to break through quickly and become the God of War without hesitation. But now, the Tyrant Body Technique has improved his qualifications, and he is expected to reach a higher level and realm, so he has to let

He thought about it again and again.

Without hesitating for too long, Xiahou said with determination: "I choose the path of ancient martial arts!"

Ding Ning nodded without saying anything. He knew that Xiahou was willing to change to ancient martial arts, mostly because he didn't want to face Xiahou Weiyang. Maybe he no longer hates Xiahou Weiyang, but he still can't pass the test in his heart.

Although Xiahou shouted like a young master, he regarded Xiahou as his brother in his heart. No matter whether his brother's choice was right or wrong, all he could do was to support him with all his strength.

"Alang, Yuqiu, Brother Xiahou, follow me!"

Ding Ning said hello and walked into the living room first. Wild Cat and others consciously entered a state of alert and started patrolling the night seriously.

In the living room, Ding Ning took out a storage ring and handed it to Xiahou, saying seriously: "Brother Xiahou, this is a storage ring. It is full of fire crystals. It should be enough for your cultivation at this level."

Before the shocked Xia Hou could react, Ding Ning took out another storage ring and handed it to Ye Tianlang: "Alang, this storage ring is for you. It contains wind spirit crystals. Although the quantity is not large, it should be enough for the time being.

You’ve used it for your cultivation.”

The Wind Spirit Crystal was obtained by Ding Ning from the corpse of the Wind Shark during the last underwater battle. Although the quantity was small, it was enough to support Ye Tianlang's cultivation to the True Martial Realm.

"Gudu!"

Xia Hou swallowed hard and said in a somewhat interfering voice: "Master, do you mean this is a storage ring, and it contains fire spirit crystals and wind spirit crystals?"

"Yeah, what's wrong? By the way, you need to shed blood to identify the owner first, and then you can concentrate on accessing the items."

Ding Ning looked at him strangely and patted his forehead suddenly. The storage ring was a rarity even in the ancient martial arts world. No wonder Xiahou was so shocked.

I was secretly glad that I extorted a batch of those golden dragons when I went to the Sunset Continent, otherwise I would have to wait until I reached the ninth level of the Divine Martial Realm to be qualified to refine this thing.

As he acquired the Water Space and the Medicine Spirit Ring, his vision became much higher. He really didn't notice these storage rings, which were only one hundred cubic meters in size on average, but for Xiahou and Ye Tianlang,

, this is simply an artifact!

"I know this. I just want to ask, are there really fire spirit crystals and wind spirit crystals here?"

Xia Hou still had some common sense, so he didn't rush to shed blood to identify his master. Instead, he looked at Ding Ning with a strange expression and asked.

"Yeah, what's the matter? Is there something wrong? Although the spiritual crystals are a bit scarce, there shouldn't be none in the ancient martial arts world, right?"

Ding Ning felt a little confused. Shouldn't Xiahou be paying attention to the storage ring? Why did he pay attention to the spiritual crystal?

As far as he knows, many ancient martial arts sects occupy large and small cave heavens and even secret realms. These cave heavens and secret realms are all built on spiritual veins. Although spiritual crystals are rare, they are not without them. Compared with storage rings,

It shouldn't seem like much.

"Hey! Master, if it were just a spiritual crystal, I wouldn't be so fussy. But the problem is that this is a spiritual crystal with attributes. If word spreads, even huge forces like the Four Holy Sects will go crazy and snatch it away!"

Xiahou knew that Ding Ning only had a partial understanding of the ancient martial arts world, so he patiently explained: "Although spiritual crystals are very precious, they are nothing to a sect like the Four Saints that occupies a great secret realm. Spiritual crystals with attributes can

That is definitely an extremely rare treasure, even a powerful person in the divine martial realm would be tempted by it."

"Why? Aren't they all spiritual crystals?"

Ding Ning frowned, a little confused.

"Although they are all spiritual crystals, spiritual crystals with attributes are absolutely different from ordinary spiritual crystals to warriors. Especially for warriors at the level of the True Martial Realm, not only can attribute spiritual crystals be used without any hindrance,

Rapid absorption can also continuously enhance the affinity for attribute elements."

Xia Hou said with shining eyes: "Ordinary spiritual crystals have no attributes. It takes a process for a warrior to absorb the spiritual energy contained in them and transform them into his own power. In other words, practicing with spiritual crystals cannot immediately transform them into his own power.

There is also a process of transforming one’s cultivation into spiritual power suitable for one’s own attributes.

During this process, the spiritual power will be lost by about 40%. Sixty percent of the spiritual power can be truly and effectively absorbed by the warrior, which is considered very good. However, the spiritual crystal that matches one's own attributes is different. The attribute spiritual crystal can be directly converted into cultivation.

, not only greatly speeds up the cultivation speed, but the effective absorption rate can also reach 100%."

Having said this, Xia Hou swallowed his saliva and said excitedly: "Compared with these benefits, the greater role of attribute spirit crystals is that in the process of absorbing the attribute spirit crystals that fit their own attributes, it can not only increase the warrior's affinity for attribute elements

Harmony can also help others

Understand the attribute rules contained in it, so attribute spirit crystals are more than ten thousand times rarer than ordinary spirit crystals for warriors who match their own attributes. In the ancient martial arts world, a small piece of low-grade attribute spirit crystal can be exchanged for a large amount.

A top-quality spiritual crystal with no attributes."

Ding Ning was dumbfounded when he heard this. He thought that the spiritual crystals were all the same, but he didn't expect that there was such a difference. This made his eyes green, and he even thought about taking out some low-grade attribute spiritual crystals to compete with those ancient and wealthy people.

The Wumen Sect has brought some top quality spiritual crystals.

After all, he is different from other people. His attributes are not outstanding at all, or in other words, all his attributes are relatively balanced, and no attribute is particularly outstanding. This leads to the fact that non-attributed spiritual crystals are the most suitable thing for his cultivation.

.

"Master, don't reveal your wealth. No matter where you got the attribute spirit crystal, don't tell anyone, not even us. Otherwise, even if you are just suspicious, it will bring big trouble to the master."

Xiahou seemed to have read through Ding Ning's thoughts and warned him seriously.

"Why can't I tell you? I don't think you will betray me. If I don't trust you, I don't know who to trust."

Although Ding Ning had no intention of telling them the origin of the attribute spirit crystal, after hearing how serious Xia Hou said it, he couldn't help but ask curiously.

Wang Yuqiu's expression changed, and her eyes were a little gloomy. Compared to Xia Hou and Ye Tianlang, she must be considered an outsider in Ding Ning's heart. Xia Hou's words probably meant that he was guarding against her.

Xia Hou didn't notice her discomfort, and explained patiently with a wry smile: "The Second Young Master and the Second Young Mistress are all trustworthy and we will definitely not betray the Young Master. However, ancient warriors have endless ways of training, and their methods are even more diverse.

Some evil warriors practice sorcery that can hypnotize or even search for souls. When we meet such people, no one can guarantee that we won’t tell the secret in a daze, so the less people know about the young master’s secret, the better.”

"ah!"

Wang Yuqiu covered her mouth in astonishment, with a look of disbelief on her face: "I've heard of hypnosis. Is such an incredible method of searching for souls really possible?"

Ding Ning and Ye Tianlang also looked shocked. Apparently they didn't expect such a magical method. Xia Hou nodded deeply, with a look of fear in his eyes: "Although there are few warriors who can search for souls, they are not unique.

When I was a wandering mercenary, I saw a large mercenary group hire a soul-searching expert at a high price to use soul-searching techniques to help them interrogate a prisoner and find out the location of a treasure."

"Soul-searching technique? What will happen to the person whose soul is searched?"

Ding Ning's heart moved, and he suddenly remembered that when he was helping Zhao Gang to treat his illness, he had accidentally entered his consciousness and obtained part of his memory. Is this considered a soul-searching technique?

"The mild case will lose memory, the serious case will have a mental breakdown and become a crazy person, and the serious case will die on the spot!"

Seeing the frightened expressions on the faces of the three of them, Xia Hou quickly comforted him: "I'm just saying this just in case, so you don't have to worry too much. I have learned about this situation. First of all, I know how to search for souls."

After all, there are very few people there, and it’s hard to find them even if you want to.

; Secondly, the Soul Searching Technique is not omnipotent. If there are no great benefits, the Soul Searching Technique will not be used easily. After all, the risk of using the Soul Searching Technique is too high. If you encounter someone with strong willpower or

People with strong mental power will suffer backlash if they fail to search for souls.

, ranging from mental damage to severe physical and mental injuries, so those who know the soul-searching technique generally do not search the souls of warriors, but at most ordinary people, because the serious consequences of the backlash are not something they can bear.

; in the end, all the warlocks who knew how to search for souls were recruited by various gates.

The warriors of the sect regard him as a heinous and evil person who will fight to the death if he sees him. As a result, the soul-searching warlocks are all like rats on the street and will never dare to reveal their identity easily. With the young master's current status, those soul-searching warlocks

You shouldn’t be easily provoked.”

"I hope to meet a soul-searching warlock!"

Ding Ning heard that performing the Soul Searching Technique required strong mental power, otherwise he would suffer backlash. He immediately felt relieved, but was a little eager to try it, thinking that it would be great if he could learn the Soul Searching Technique.

Although the Soul Searching Warlock is regarded as an evil person who violates the harmony of nature, he always believes that there is no good or evil in Tao. It just depends on who uses it and who uses it on whom.

For example, if a crazy guy like Zhao Shu is caught by him, he will not hesitate to use the soul search technique to find the person behind him.

If I don’t go to hell, who will go to hell? The Buddha cut his flesh and fed it to eagles. If he kills one person, he can save millions of people. This is actually a great merit. Ding Ning has no taboos and is not afraid of falling into the Abi Hell after death and suffering the pain of carving out flesh and bones.

, the pain endured during military training is much more serious than that!

"Master, please don't be careless. Although soul-searching warlocks are very rare, they are not absolutely non-existent. I don't mean to encourage others and destroy my own prestige. I just want to remind the master that the fewer people who know about attribute spiritual crystals, the better.

Even a strong person in the Divine Martial Realm would be tempted by something of this level, so it’s better to be cautious!”
