Devourer of the Six Realms

Chapter 30 The Miserable Apprentice

Mi Zhugong turned around and looked at Jin Xiaokai and the others, and said calmly: "You are all devourers, I still have to remind you of some things, don't touch the things inside here, or there will be bad consequences, don't complain I."

"Of, of course." In fact, even if Mi Zhugong didn't say anything, Jin Xiaokai and the others would not move anything casually, after all, everything here looks a little dangerous.

"There is a third floor above, which is where you usually stay. Remember, don't run around in this tower. I have placed some anti-theft mechanisms in some places. With your current skills, once you encounter that It’s about death, do you understand?”

"Understood..." Jin Xiaokai groaned inwardly. It could be seen that Mi Zhugong was extremely guarded against other people, and he didn't know if he and the others could bear it for half a year.Since Jin Xiaokai became the devourer, his strength has increased and his temperament has gradually changed. At least he has been able to deal with ordinary people with ease. He felt a little elated just now, but now he wants to bow down to this senior in the devouring world. He was extremely upset, but there was nothing he could do for the time being.

"I'm short on time, since you're here, let's start working now!" Mi Zhugong almost treated the three of them as free laborers, and ordered them to start working without even giving them a break.

The job assigned to Cheng Xue and Wei Xiaoyu was relatively simple, it was to let them take care of a mutant creature kept in a glass tank, that thing looked like a combination of a mouse and a bird, but instead of feathers, it was covered with feathers. It is a scale like a fish scale, which looks very weird.

"Because you have just come to me and are not familiar with the situation, the work I entrust to you now is only the simplest, I hope you don't mess it up." Mi Zhugong pointed at the mutant creature and said: "This kind of thing It’s called Bingscale Rat, and it’s extremely powerful, and it’s usually a group activity. Being besieged by this kind of thing, it’s hard for even a master to deal with it. Be careful, don’t let this little guy escape.”

Hearing that this thing is so dangerous, Cheng Xue and Wei Xiaoyu could only agree with a bitter face.

Mi Zhugong turned around and picked up a shovel, and said to Jin Xiaokai: "Come with me."

Seeing Mi Zhugong's posture, Wei Xiaoyu whispered to Cheng Xue: "It seems that we are good at taking care of this thing. After all, we are not so tired. I don't know how long Brother Xiao Kai will be a coolie." Cheng Xue also deeply agreed, Nodding again and again.

The place where Mi Zhugong took Jin Xiaokai to work turned out to be the underground of this stone pagoda!Originally, there were several huge gaps on the ground of the hall on the first floor of the stone pagoda, and the two of them got in through this place.

"I was excavating here before, but I was suddenly interrupted by your arrival, so you have to make up for the wasted time." Mi Zhugong spoke unceremoniously, taking Jin Xiaokai as if he could A slave at will.

In the depths of the underground gap, Mr. Mi Zhu has dug a wide corridor, and on both sides, dilapidated stone buildings can be clearly seen, completely buried by mud.The style of those buildings is very similar to those remaining on the ground, and seems to be a product of the same period.

"Here are the remnants of an ancient kingdom. After thousands of years, the earth has subsided and buried these relics deep underground. Your job is to dig out anything that looks weird here, and give it to I'm here to study, and you don't touch anything, understand?"

Jin Xiaokai hesitated for a moment, and asked, "The ancient kingdom? Does it have anything to do with us, the Devourer?"

"Of course. Otherwise, I won't be able to use the things I dug up, so why waste all my energy!" Mi Zhugong was a little dissatisfied with Xiao Kai's understanding, and glared at him, "Stop talking nonsense! Go dig now!" Put the shovel in his hand into Jin Xiaokai's hand.

"Dig?..." Xiao Kai looked at the huge stones that were as tall as half a person, and felt a chill in his heart. "How can I dig this!"

Mi Zhugong folded his hands and stood aside, watching Xiao Kai's work like a vicious supervisor. "If you tell you to do it, do it. Don't you want to know how to prolong your own life?"

Jin Xiaokai gritted his teeth, summoned all his strength, and swung his shovel towards a boulder! "Dangdang" repeated, shaking Xiaokai's hands and arms numb, but he could only shovel off a few pieces the size of a fist.

"Hmph, if you continue to work like this, I'm afraid you won't be able to dig out much in your lifetime." Mi Zhugong sneered twice and said sarcastically.

"Then, how do we dig? Do we have to dig around this stone?"

"Go around? This is actually a stone wall. You can only dig into it if you break through here. If you want to go around, the whole progress will be slowed down by at least three times!"

"But... I really can't dig it..." Jin Xiaokai had a bitter face, and when he said this, he was very afraid that Mi Zhugong would get angry.

Mi Zhugong sneered and said: "Your digging method is not right at all! Huh, I will give you a demonstration, I hope you can see it clearly, if you can't learn it if you don't see it clearly, then you can just go back and wait for your death." !" He reached out and snatched the shovel from Jin Xiaokai's hand, and stood in front of a boulder.

Hearing Mi Zhugong's words, Jin Xiaokai's eyes widened immediately, and he focused on his every move.All of a sudden, all moving objects in the outside world slowed down—Jin Xiaokai unintentionally activated his special ability of "motion slice" again!But this time was different from before, Jin Xiaokai could faintly see the Yuanli flow on Mi Zhugong's body!
The Yuanli on Mi Zhugong's body was dark red in color, like flowing magma, flowing back and forth along a fixed track, and at the same time, various subtle and peculiar changes constantly occurred.Jin Xiaokai noticed that the energy from Mi Zhugong's body flowed out from his lower abdomen, and finally poured into the shovel in his hand slowly, coating the surface of the shovel with a thin layer!
Jin Xiaokai was greatly surprised, and felt something in his heart.

Mi Zhugong waved the shovel in his hand, and he dug out pieces of stones from the boulders like tofu!Jin Xiaokai stared closely at his movements, and found that no matter whether he was swinging the shovel or using force, his movements had reached a certain level that can be called back to basics, and there was absolutely no extra movement. Although it didn't look so graceful, it was still In line with the principle of optimal use of force.

Of course, what really works is the layer of elemental force covering the surface of the shovel.Under the effect of that layer of elemental force, the ordinary metal shovel turned into an incredible sharp weapon like a magic weapon!

Mi Zhugong only shoveled it a few times, then threw the shovel aside, and said to Xiaokai: "Did you see it clearly?"

Jin Xiaokai hesitated for a moment, and said, "It should be... about the same."

Mi Zhugong did not get angry this time, and explained patiently: "It seems that you still don't understand anything. I really don't know how you raised your strength to the current level. You should always remember that you are A devourer, no matter what he does in the future, he can condense the energy in his body. Only in this way can the efficiency be greatly improved. I just wrapped my own energy on this shovel, and finally I can dig so easy."

Jin Xiaokai nodded repeatedly, he already understood what Mi Zhugong meant.

"Do you know why I chose you to excavate the ruins? This is because among the three of you, you are the one with the deepest energy in your body! Although I don't know how you cultivated so much energy, if you don't take it out It would be a shame to use it.”

"Just, just because of this?" Jin Xiaokai didn't know whether to cry or laugh, it turned out that strength is not a good thing.

"Of course. Otherwise, what do you think it is?" Mi Zhugong gave a natural expression.

Jin Xiaokai picked up the shovel, followed Mi Zhugong's example, sent part of his body's energy to the shovel, and covered the surface with a thin layer—although this was an extremely simple action , but Jin Xiaokai still felt a strenuous feeling of sweating on his forehead.

"What's the matter! The energy consumption in the body is too fast, right?!" Without thinking too much, Jin Xiaokai swung the shovel vigorously. He shoveled it down.

But the good times didn't last long, soon the vitality in Jin Xiaokai's body bottomed out, and a feeling of weakness appeared on his body, Jin Xiaokai almost fell to the ground.

Mi Zhugong next to him opened his mouth wide in surprise.He didn't expect that Jin Xiaokai would be able to learn how to do it right away after he had just done a demonstration. Although there were still some flaws in it, there was basically nothing wrong with it!Even a genius, it's impossible to be so fast, right?

"Have you ever used Yuanli like this before?"

"No, right? This should be the first time." Xiao Kai also saw Mi Zhugong's surprised expression, and felt a little uneasy, but he couldn't explain his special ability of "motion slice".

Mi Zhugong stroked his chin, lost in thought: "Well, should we study this?..."

Jin Xiaokai quickly changed the subject and said, "However, if you use this method to dig, the energy will be consumed too quickly!"

"It can be seen that you have only learned the basic cultivation method of Yuanli, and you haven't dabbled in the rest at all."

"Yes! That's true." Jin Xiaokai remembered that he had also studied "The Illusory Fire Origin Force of the Melting Flame Sect" before, but it didn't have much effect, and later the fire tooth of the devouring core consciousness in his body also said that this kind of Cultivation doesn't mean much.

"Most of the source of energy in the devourer's body can be generated from the energy points and phagocytic cores in his body, but in fact, the speed of energy generation can be controlled by consciousness. Once you master the According to the law, you can continuously generate Yuanli from the Yuanli point to maintain your own consumption."

Jin Xiaokai suddenly realized: "It turns out that this is also possible!"
