Longevity begins with an old woman

Chapter 16 Flame Perception
"We are new to the Chi family, and we don't intend to embarrass you. That's fine. In the name of the Patriarch of the Chi family, I will waive your rent for next month! Just treat it as a meeting gift!"

"Chi Patriarch Gao Yi!"

"That's right! That's right! The Chi family is having a hard time themselves, and they even waived our rent. They are really good people!"

A group of low-level monks, grateful to Dade, soon dispersed.

As for the three who died in the late stage of Qi training, they were ignored by everyone, and their bodies were just thrown on the ground.

Reality is always so cruel and dramatic.

Xu Mu breathed a sigh of relief, and followed Jia An and the others back.

Originally, he was worried about some accident, but he didn't expect that it would end in such an anticlimactic manner.

But that patriarch Chi was really terrifying, he killed three monks of the same level with one move!
Among them, Xu Mu knew something about the gray-robed old repairer.

He used to live in the same alley with the other party, and he knew that the other party was a top master who had completed Qi training and was about to hit the foundation establishment, and his strength was absolutely inferior.

I didn't expect to be killed so easily!

"Could this be the power of the Jianji family, completely crushing ordinary casual cultivators!"

There is no shortage of geniuses in this world, let alone big families with rich resources.

His background is far worse than others.

Still have to keep a low profile!

Compared to Xu Mu, Jia An, Ma Rui and others seemed very excited. This time, they not only participated in a big event, but also waived one month's rent.

Five low-grade spirit stones are not a lot to them.

As for the dead?

It has nothing to do with them!
"Xu Daoyou, do you want to go to Fangshi for a drink together?"

Jia An seemed to have tasted the taste of power. Before the crowd had completely dispersed, he invited a few people to Fangshi for a drink to deepen their relationship.

If everyone can be condensed into a force and form a network of contacts, it may not be impossible to achieve something in the future.

The others seemed to be aware of this, and they all nodded in agreement.

Only Xu Mu shook his head and refused, "No! My wife is still waiting at home!"

What is there to get together with a few low-level monks.

He was different from the others, he was still thinking about building a foundation, and he didn't want to waste time on such trivial personnel matters.

"Alright then! Let's drink again when we have a chance!"

Jia An thought that Xu Mu was frightened, so he didn't force too much, and walked towards Fangshi with a few people, talking and laughing.

Xu Mu noticed that not only their alleys, but also many scattered monks gathered intentionally or unintentionally, forming small groups.

It was clear that everyone felt the power of the group.

Originally, they were just a group of casual cultivators who were bullied, but now they are united into one group, and they can actually force the Chi family to give in.

Although it ended in failure, it planted seeds in everyone's hearts.

This feeling of sudden strength made them instinctively want to catch him, especially a monk like Jia An, who played the role of matchmaker in it.

It's just that whether this seed of right will fade with time or thrive is unknown.

On the way back, Xu Mu always felt that someone was staring at him, and when he turned his head abruptly, he saw the Li brothers, staring at him and smiling evilly.

These two perverts really linger!
There are so many people in the alley, why are they staring at me?
Xu Mu was really speechless.

He wasn't worried that the two of them would attack him, what he was worried about was that the other party would attack his wife while he was away.

"We must find a way to solve it as soon as possible!"

There is only a thousand days to catch a thief, not a thousand days to prevent a thief.

The Li brothers had been staring at Xu Mu as he entered the house, and then they looked away.

……

On the table in the main room, there was a pot of stewed monster meat, and there was a plate of fried wild vegetables beside it.

The wild vegetables were bought from Jia An's wife Li Moqing. When the two of them went to the mountains to collect resources, they would collect some wild vegetables.

Xu Mu filled two large bowls of Lingmi and placed them in front of himself and Ye Yingying.

Next to the table was a wooden shaker, and Xiao Ling'er was lying in it, covered with a blanket, sleeping soundly.

"Master, eat more!"

Ye Yingying put the meat into Xu Mu's bowl with a sweet smile on her face.

"Okay! Eat more too, it must be hard work to take care of your daughter every day! I've lost weight recently!"

"there is!"

The two kissed each other at the dinner table and showed their affection again. If it wasn't for the fact that Xiao Ling'er just woke up, they would definitely deepen their relationship.

"After a while, the market is stable. I'll take you shopping. It must be boring at home every day!"

Xu Mu hugged the mother and daughter lovingly in his arms.

It was okay when I lived in Fangshi before, I could go to the neighbors' houses nearby, but ever since I arrived in the shanty town, for safety's sake, Xu Mu strictly ordered her not to allow it, and Ye Yingying was also very obedient.

However, there are not many women in the shanty town, even if you want to escape, there is no one to escape.

What's more, there are two weirdos, the Li brothers!

"It doesn't matter! As long as my husband is with me, I will be very happy!"

Ye Yingying was very sensible, she tilted her head in his arms, and said sweetly.

"Ying'er!"

Xu Mu hugged Ye Yingying closer.

Such an obedient and sensible wife, how can people not love her?
"Wow wow wow!"

Xiao Ling'er immediately protested.

You two show affection, can you not put me in the middle?

I'm almost crushed to death by you!

……

After tidying up the dishes, Ye Yingying took Xiao Ling'er back to the bedroom to rest, while Xu Mu went into the utility room, preparing to add the fire control technique to Chaofan.

Because he didn't know what would happen, in order to avoid accidents, Xu Mu also borrowed his wife's formation and temporarily arranged it around.

Turn on the system!

add a bit!

[Fire Control +10]!
[Fire Control +10]!
[Fire Control +10]!
……

【Grandmaster of Fire Control; 3199/3200】

Looking at the system interface, Xu Mu took a deep breath and added the last point.

boom!
A huge feeling emerged in my mind, very mysterious.

Xu Mu didn't feel dizzy like the previous breakthrough, but felt comfortable all over, especially the spirit, which was almost ecstatic.

It was as if the spirit had escaped from some kind of shackles, and jumped out of his body with a jerk.

Xu Mu saw himself sitting cross-legged in a daze.

Before he had time to be shocked, his consciousness was pulled into a certain mysterious space, where flames were everywhere, endless as far as the eye could see, like a sea of ​​fire.

It was also too late to be shocked, the moment his consciousness entered, it was burned to ashes by the endless flames, and in the ashes, a golden flame rune was quietly born.

Everything is like watching flowers on horseback!

Xu Mu suddenly opened his eyes and took a deep breath, like having a horrible nightmare.

But what he didn't know was that, between his eyebrows, a flame rune flashed away.

He opened the system again to check, and the Fire Control Technique on it had changed to [Fire Control Technique Extraordinary; 0/0], and it was obvious that it could no longer be improved.

Don't know how powerful it is?
This is the first extraordinary spell he has cultivated, so he naturally doesn't want it to be a tasteless one.

Just as Xu Mu closed his eyes, he was about to regain his energy.

A very strange feeling suddenly emerged in his heart, everything around him was printed in his mind out of thin air.

"Could it be divine thoughts?"

After the shock, Xu Mu couldn't restrain his ecstasy.

He didn't expect that the breakthrough in the fire control technique could also bring about an improvement in mental power.

But after the excitement passed, Xu Mu discovered that although this perception was similar to the divine sense, it was still very different from the divine sense in the Foundation Establishment period.

Because as far as he knows, the smallest range of divine sense is hundreds of meters, and the perception is extremely clear, similar to that of human eyes.

And his perception is only tens of meters away, and it is very vague. He can only feel some red objects, a bit like the infrared rays in his previous life.

"It seems that this is not only the perception brought about by spiritual improvement, but also the flame perception brought about by my excessive affinity for flames!"

To put it simply, it is to use the perception of flames to reflect the surrounding scene in the spirit in a disguised form.

Although the naked eye cannot detect the fire element in the air, Xu Mu knows that the air is full of fire elements, otherwise the monks would not be able to cast fire spells.

Although it can't be compared with the divine sense of the foundation building period, this wonderful flame perception is still a very powerful method.

In the future, he no longer has to worry about being attacked from behind.

After carefully comprehending and experiencing it, Xu Mu remembered the power of experimenting with the Fire Control Technique.

But it's just the perception of flames. For him, this promotion has already made a lot of money.

Therefore, even though he was looking forward to the power of the extraordinary level fire control technique, he no longer felt concerned about gains and losses.

Even if the power is not as good as he expected, it's no big deal.

He squeezed a formula with both hands, and said "Ning" silently!
A ball of flames appeared out of nowhere in the void, twisting and changing rapidly, and turned into a dark red sharp sword.

Xu Mu commanded the sharp sword to fly around the room, just like a real flying sword.

"This doesn't seem to be my limit!"

Xu Mu thought of the sword formula that the Patriarch of the Chi family used yesterday, his heart skipped a beat, and he quickly pinched the formula with both hands.

Puff puff!
Groups of flames appeared in the air, quickly condensing into dark red long swords.

After condensing a full twelve, Xu Mu had to stop with sweat on his forehead.

"This is already my limit!"

It was very difficult for him to control the flame flying sword to fly around, so he withdrew three of them.

The remaining nine fire swords immediately became extremely flexible in the air, like nine swimming fish.

Between the sudden bursts, it was as swift as the wind!
"Nine is just right for me, but twelve can't exert its full power!"

"However, it's okay!"

Xu Mu scattered the nine flaming swords, made another tactic, and regrouped, this time replacing it with an inch-long flying knife.

Due to the smaller size, his condensed number has increased significantly, reaching 32.

However, he could feel that the power of the flying knife was much weaker than that of the fire sword.

"That's right! Since I can disperse it and make it smaller, can I..."

The 32 flying knives quickly merged into one giant sword that was as tall as a man and more than three inches wide. The power contained in it made Xu Mu feel a little scared and hurried away.

If it blows up in the room, the whole family will go to heaven.

However, the most powerful means of Fire Control Technique is the compressed fireball invented by himself, but——

Xu Mu didn't dare to try it in the room, it could easily get out of control.

"I don't know that I and the Patriarch of the Chi family..., damn! What are you thinking about? The opponent's attack power at that time may have reached the foundation-building stage, or even surpassed the ordinary foundation-building!"

Thinking about it now, Xu Mu was still a little terrified, the sword aura alone was terrifying.

"I just don't know, did he practice the sword art to a high level, or did he use some tricks?"

Although the other party was from the Foundation Establishment family, after thinking about it, Xu Mu still felt that the other party was a bit too strong.

"Forget it! I'm just a low-level casual cultivator, what do you think about those things! There are so many rare treasures in the world, there are so many magical skills and secret methods, and it's not surprising that I can explode the power of foundation building during the Qi training period! For example, I, You should have the strength in the late stage of Qi training, right?"

Xu Mu's hands suddenly felt itchy.

Although he feels that he has improved a lot, he always feels that he has no bottom if he doesn't try it.

The last time he dealt with Sun Daocheng, he used a sneak attack, and he used the most powerful move. He also dealt with a monk of the same level. It can be said that his strength has not been brought into play at all, and it cannot be used to test his strength. .

"Go to Baihe Forest and try!"

After all, it is difficult to make a car behind closed doors, and it is time for him to gain some combat experience for himself.

Now that the luck value is basically exhausted, the speed of improving strength in the future will definitely drop significantly.

If you want to increase your strength, you can only work in other areas.

Among them, improving combat experience is undoubtedly the fastest and most convenient shortcut.

He also wanted to go to Baihe Forest for a long time. If he could hunt and kill a monster, that would be the best.

Just do it when you think about it, Xu Mu and his wife explained, and walked out of the house with a sword.

And not long after he went out, the Li brothers also walked out, falling far behind him.
