Start from a baby to become a Taoist

Chapter 70: Golden-eyed Tiger Girl? Blue-eyed Zhu Yuheng? The Talisman God of Resentment cannot sit idly by!

I can even hear the mysterious little girl's voice. It must be true. It must be a highly intelligent creature born from a high-quality crystal beast egg, calling me...

"My 223 points of luck are pretty reliable."

Xu Ran smiled faintly.

"But the question is, which egg is talking to me?"

He turned his head to look at everyone, but no one reacted, which meant that the sound just now might have been telepathy. Telepathy was very weak, and he didn't have time to carefully identify it, let alone know which egg was harboring a higher intelligent life form.

He held his breath and gently tapped the crystal beast eggs one by one, as if he was picking watermelon eggs. There were life fluctuations in each crystal beast egg. Which one was the egg of a higher intelligent life form?
"Who was it that just spoke? Call it again and tell you to move?"

Xu Ran reminded himself in his heart.

"I am me……"

An egg suddenly shook gently, and a tiny telepathic sound was transmitted that only Xu Ran could hear.

Xu Ran's eyes jumped as he saw the plain gray egg.

It was only the size of a grapefruit, with a few green patterns on the shell. There was nothing special about it. Compared to the dazzling and colorful eggs of other crystal beasts, it was just a low-quality product.

"It's you?"

"Save me... Divine Origin..."

Xu Ran was instantly alert. This little ghost was asking for the divine origin? One of my most precious treasures!
There are only four drops!

He hesitated.

If he had 1 drops of divine essence, he would definitely give 5000 drops to the small crystal beast egg!
I don't mean anything else, Mr. Xu is just generous and kind-hearted.

If there are 10 drops of divine origin, he will even give drops!
But he really has 4 drops...

Just taking a drop to hatch a crystal beast egg of unknown origin... I feel a little reluctant.

After all, killing the Nightmare Mother only extracted one drop, and killing the Flying Head Ghost only extracted three drops...

I finally managed to save up four drops.

As a result, you have to take out one drop to hatch a little crystal beast?
Is hatching a small crystal beast more cost-effective than nurturing the root of my future [domineering and unique]?
Not necessarily?

Who knows what will be hatched?
"Save me, please..."

The little girl pleaded softly. It could be judged that she was already extremely weak and on the verge of death...

Xu Ran thought for a moment: "You and I are destined to be together, so I'll give you one drop. Is one drop enough?"

The little girl said weakly, "That's enough. Thank you..."

"Row."

Xu Ran stared intently, and with a thought, he slapped a drop of colorful divine origin onto the surface of the small crystal beast egg.

Everyone only saw a little light and before they could see any details, the small crystal beast egg quickly devoured the divine origin.

Ye Ping raised his eyebrows: "What did you do just now? Did you give it a little seed of faith?"

Lin Feng's eyes lit up. "Can the Seed of Faith plant a contract with the Crystal Beast Egg? Or can it make the soul inside believe in you more and recognize you? If it really works, can the Seed of Faith be popularized?"

"If every practitioner uses the seeds of faith to cultivate crystal beasts, China's combat effectiveness will be unprecedentedly improved."

Xu Ran pondered, "Belief seeds are extremely difficult to learn. They're not universally applicable. I doubt even Hu Niu could learn them."

Everyone was puzzled: "Who is Hu Niu?"

Ye Ping smiled helplessly: "...Jiang Liuli, the King of the Condemned, nicknamed the little girl Tiger Girl."

Everyone suddenly realized: "Oh..."

"Is it really impossible to popularize it? Such a heaven-defying technique...if it could be popularized..."

Xu Ran smiled warmly: "Not now, maybe later."

Liu Yan was slightly surprised: "Really? So confident?"

Xu Ran nodded. When he reached the third sequence of [Excellent at Sudden Enlightenment] + [Enlightenment], he might be able to teach a group of geniuses. Of course, if he wanted to popularize it, he would probably need the fourth sequence.

"As expected of a person with a strong understanding!"

Everyone began to look forward to it. They had truly witnessed the extraordinary power of the seed of faith. If it could be popularized, even if only to geniuses, it would be an invincible boost.

Xu Ran smiled faintly and looked at the small crystal beast egg.

While stroking with your hands, you can also perceive with your mind.

"Did you survive?"

The tiny female voice was soft and weak: "Thank you...sleep..."

The head of the group looked at Xu Ran and the gray crystal beast egg in his hand curiously: "Are you going to choose it?"

Xu Ran: “Yes.”

The head of the group pondered: "This crystal beast egg is somewhat different from other crystal beast eggs. Many practitioners have seen its extraordinaryness, but no one dares to take the risk to claim it."

"Are you sure you want to take the risk? There was a beast taming genius with golden roots, but he didn't dare to choose it."

Xu Ran said calmly, "It's not a big deal. I want her, and she's the only one I want."

The divine origin has been used up, it is impossible not to choose. Should we leave her here to benefit others?
The head of the group wanted to say a few more words, but when he saw Xu Ran's determined look, he nodded and said, "Okay, I'll put it in the special incubator for you. As long as it stays in the incubator, it will hatch normally. The incubation time is about a month."

"But you have to pay attention to the humidity and temperature of the incubator every day..."

The general leader gave a bunch of precautions, asked someone to deliver the incubator, then took out a booklet and handed it to Xu Ran.

“If you have any questions, you can read the pamphlet.”

Xu Ran nodded: "Okay. Thank you, Captain."

The head of the group: "Do you want me to send someone to mail it back to the park for you?"

Xu Ran immediately waved his hand: "That's not necessary. I want to bring the incubator with me and watch it hatch bit by bit."

Send it back to the park. What if something goes wrong? Remember, just a few minutes ago, the little girl inside the crystal beast egg was still calling for help...

If she calls for help again during the hatching process, and Xu Ran isn't there to help her, unable to provide her with divine essence in time, causing her to die, then Xu Ran would be severely damaged. A whole drop of divine essence!!
of course.

Xu Ran hoped she wouldn't ask for anything more.

The head of the group smiled slightly and said, "Okay. If you keep it with you, be careful not to bump into anything."

Xu Ran: “I understand.”

After giving detailed instructions for a while, the chief handed the incubator to Xu Ran.

Xu Ran took out the paper puppet and handed the incubation box to the armored general. The armored general held the incubation box and followed Xu Ran carefully.

The head corps leader looked at the paper puppet and said, "It's quite stable!"

Xu Ran smiled faintly.

"You still have a prize. Do you want to look for it again? Or pick it up later?"

Xu Ran pondered for a moment and said, "Let's wait and see. Maybe after a while, a god-level item suitable for me will appear..."

The head of the group said: "Okay."

……

Leave the treasure house.

It was dark, but the streetlights were bright.

Since the [No Despair Scourge] retreated, there has been no large-scale invasion of crystal beasts for two whole nights.

They seemed to be afraid of something.

Without the invasion of the crystal beast tide, the practitioners can rarely enjoy peace and tranquility.

Had dinner.

Bat No. 1 continues to search for the mysterious little girl with blue light.

pity.

After circling for three days, the mysterious little girl with blue light never appeared again.

Xu Ran shook his head: "It's time to give up. The probability of finding her is extremely low, we can only meet her by chance."

Lin Feng pondered: "If she can freely travel through the Sixth Safe Zone, then she may already be in another safe zone. Insisting on finding her is like looking for a needle in a haystack."

Xiao Xue: "Yes. If she is still deliberately avoiding Xu Ran, it will be even harder to meet her. Unless she is willing to actively look for Xu Ran, the probability of finding her is basically zero."

Xu Ran: "Let's try for another day..."

Another day passed.

At 11 o'clock in the evening, the Fire Hell God-Slaying Squad and the Soul Purifying God-Slaying Squad found Xu Ran and Ye Ping.

"We're off on a brand new mission, little one. See you later."

"When the God Slayer Team selection competition comes, we will find time to watch your game."

Xu Ran's eyes sparkled: "Okay! Be careful!"

The two members of the God Slayer Squad turned their backs to Xu Ran, waved, and then left in style: "Goodbye!"

next second.

The Fire Hell God-Slaying Team and the Soul Purifying God-Slaying Team, who had been together for a week, disappeared into the super gate.

Only Xu Ran and Ye Ping were left in the training team.

Ye Ping: "Are we going back too? Or do you still have experience to learn?"

Xu Ran thought for a moment and said, "Let's try our luck again!"

What if you come across a golden mission?

Doesn't that mean we can extract the red gold root bone?

then.

Xu Ran stayed in the safe zone for six days, from the sixth safe zone, to the third safe zone, to the fifth safe zone, to the ninth safe zone.

"So this is what drowned people look like... It's a good thing they don't have mental powers, otherwise it would be even more bizarre. Uncle Ye, among these races, will there be any monsters with root bones mutated?"

Ye Ping: "I haven't seen any. There's an insurmountable gap between high-level monsters, super-level monsters, and god-level monsters... Perhaps there are also [Scourgees] among the low-level crystal beasts, and they died before they could successfully awaken."

Xu Ran raised his eyebrows: "That makes sense."

"Heart-Breaking Brain Demon... Haha, quite interesting. I have a feeling their abilities aren't racial abilities, but rather blessings from somewhere..."

Xu Ran analyzed silently.

On the battlefield, he commanded the army of paper men and killed people everywhere.

Eternal Flame +1...

Eternal Flame +1...

When 10 drops of Eternal Flame appeared in the Killing Heart, the number of monsters killed by Xu Ran had reached 1.

"Okay, let's save some resources for later, so we don't have to come out every time to train."

“Although it won’t be used until a year later…”

Xu Ran was satisfied.

Ye Ping looked behind him and asked, "Is the training about to end?"

Xu Ran thought for a moment and said, "Almost."

This experience can actually be called a complete success.

First of all.

As soon as I arrived in the safe zone, I harvested three drops of divine essence! This was the biggest surprise of this training.

Second.

The strength of the paper man army was greatly upgraded.

The instant kill line of the paper man army was raised from 6 to 15, and their combat effectiveness increased dozens of times!
Third, he learned the [Seed of Faith] from [No Despair Scourge], which not only gave him the ability to increase his own faith, but also allowed him to weaken the enemy in advance, increasing the damage and attack range of [Super Explosive Slash].

This was also an unexpected surprise. Xu Ran had never thought that he could learn a magical skill by coming out to gain experience!

Fourth, I got a peculiar crystal beast egg, which is estimated to be able to hatch a divine beast.

Fifth, the safe zone treasure house still owes him a treasure...

To be able to achieve such results in just the second time of going out for training in life is simply amazing!
Xu Ran was very satisfied.

As for the mist inside the red gold orb...it doesn't matter.

He is only eight years old, and his health value is only 3 points. There is still a long way to go, so why rush?

The more the red gold orb looks down on the things in the treasury, the more it shows that its origin is extraordinary, and it may give Xu Ran a super surprise in the future.

Not in a hurry.

Let the bullet fly for a while.

Therefore, this experience can be regarded as more successful than expected!

Xu Ran smiled warmly: "Let's go back to the park. It's more comfortable to stay in the park. I'm starting to miss Hu Niu."

It has been seventeen days since I last saw the energetic Hu Niu.

I miss you very much.

Ye Ping smiled and said, "Okay. But I still have a mission when I get back."

Xu Ran looked at Ye Ping: "What mission?"

Ye Ping: "Have you forgotten? You specifically mentioned it when you left - the talisman resentful god."

Xu Ran suddenly realized, "Oh, I remember. Let's go back to the park to report that we're safe, and then look for any traces of the Talisman God of Resentment."

"It's been a while since I saw it causing any trouble. It must be planning something bad..."

Ye Ping's expression was serious. "Of course... It once built ninety-nine altars of flesh and blood, sacrificing not only ordinary people but also those fanatics, accumulating a lot of power."

"After the Flesh and Blood Altar was destroyed, the strange talisman was quickly improved!"

"It's been over a year since the strange talisman was improved. Given its strange methods, it's impossible for it to remain silent. The only possibility... is that it's carrying out some hidden arrangements in a more obscure way."

Xu Ran nodded. "That's right. This time, we need to be more careful in our search. Even you can't detect the strange aura of the improved version of the strange talisman. I'm afraid that even I can't detect the third version of the strange talisman..." "If there really is a third version of the strange talisman, I'm afraid that would be the most dangerous thing."

Ye Ping frowned: "That shouldn't be possible, right?"

Xu Ran stared intently. "I'm just guessing. The Talisman Resentful God might also be a strange mechanism. I just don't know how they broke through the safe zone and entered the Chinese territory."

Ye Ping pondered: "You mean, there's a traitor?"

Xu Ran smiled faintly: "I didn't say that."

Ye Ping glanced at Xu Ran and said, "Think about it carefully. It may not be a traitor. The safe zone and the super gate have the ability to filter. It may be the ability of a certain resentful god, who can cast the resentful god here. Perhaps the resentful gods are planning to exterminate mankind..."

Xu Ran seemed to be thinking. "That makes sense. Didn't the investigation team find any information?"

Ye Ping shook his head: "To be honest, no. Even the top-tier God-Slaying teams often fail against mechanical monsters, let alone ordinary practitioners."

"Most of our Chinese God-Slaying Squads have fallen at the hands of mechanical monsters... Mechanical monsters are the most bizarre and powerful... They're like improved versions of strange talismans, yet only you can sense them..."

Xu Ran nodded slightly: "I will help find the trace of the Talisman God of Resentment! Return to Blue Star!"

Ye Ping: "Okay."

The two chatted as they passed through the super gate and returned to Yunmengze in Jing Province.

The clear blue sky and white clouds in the crisp autumn air, the fragrance of osmanthus, the green mountains, the clear water, the warm sunshine, and the comfortable breeze.

Xu Ran relaxed completely, taking a deep breath of the fresh air of Blue Star. He couldn't help but sigh, "It smells so sweet!"

Ye Ping laughed heartily. "The atmosphere on the alien battlefield is indeed more depressing. The pollution is so severe that even the plants transplanted from Blue Star have lost much of their vitality. I hope that your generation will grow up and be able to clean up the pollution and turn the alien battlefield into a base for humanity."

"If one day, I can go on vacation in Alien Battlefield again, that would be great."

Ye Ping patted Xu Ran's shoulder with anticipation.

A super genius who can shatter strange eyeballs may really be able to reverse the decline of mankind!
It is even possible to lead humanity in a counterattack!
After all, this generation has the King of the Scourge, the Time Bone, the Mirror Image Supreme, the Microcosmic Universe, the Golden Blessing, the Eight-Armed Nascent Soul...

Xu Ran's eyes were blazing: "We will counterattack."

Ye Ping: "Then I will start to maintain my health now!"

As he spoke, he walked to the parking area for the special car and showed his badge.

The driver immediately perked up: "Excuse me, sir, where are we going?"

Ye Ping: "Demigod Kindergarten."

Driver: "Okay. Please... Hmm? This two-meter tall guy, it's not easy to sit?"

Xu Ran: "It's okay. It's just a puppet. Just help me move the incubator to the back seat."

The driver nodded, carefully placed the incubator, and the armored warrior turned into a small origami and fell into Xu Ran's hands.

After everything was put away, the special car started and headed straight for the Demigod Kindergarten.

Looking at the scenery outside the window, Xu Ran couldn't help but sigh again, Blue Star is still the best, we must not let it be polluted.

Sighing.

Xu Ran suddenly said, "By the way, if you come across a shopping mall on the way, please stop. I'll bring some sweets for Hu Niu."

Driver: "Okay, sir. I know there's a huge mall right next to us. You can buy whatever you want."

Xu Ran nodded.

after an hour.

The driver parked the car next to a giant shopping mall.

Ye Ping was slightly surprised: "Buying so many? More than ten cakes, as well as osmanthus cakes, peach blossom cakes, snow meringues, donuts, puffs, double skin milk..."

Xu Ran spread his hands: "Tiger Girl made a wish. Let's satisfy her and share some with the others. That's enough."

Ye Ping smiled faintly.

After another hour, we finally arrived at the foot of Mount Qiyun.

Seeing the familiar scenery, Xu Ran felt completely relaxed. Kindergarten life was indeed comfortable and pleasant.

"Please show me your ID."

With the badge out, the driver was able to drive up the mountain.

Ye Ping: "I told everyone an hour ago, I don't know how many people will come to pick you up."

Xu Ran smiled. "I guess Hu Niu has been waiting for me for an hour. Mom must be here too, and the headmaster will probably be here too."

as predicted.

Xu Ran predicted Hu Niu's behavior without any mistake.

Hu Niu had been waiting in front of the library on the mountainside for a whole hour.

She pouted, aimlessly picking flowers, her golden eyes gazing down at the foot of the mountain: "Why haven't you come back yet? I'm starving."

Behind.

Mom Lin Qian, Aunt Chen, the head teacher, Zhu Yuheng, Feng Yan, and their mothers had just arrived.

Mom couldn't help but laugh: "Xiao Liuli, the car is going so fast that it can't arrive immediately... Why wait for an hour?"

Hu Niu shook her head seriously: "...I can smell the fragrance when I wait here, but I can't smell it when I wait at home."

Aunt Chen: "You can't smell the fragrance even if you wait here. It's just a psychological effect."

Hu Niu said confidently, "I can smell it."

"Hey! The car is coming! The car is coming!"

When she saw a car, Hu Niu jumped up, opened her arms, and ran towards Xu Ran.

"Xiao-Ran-Brother~"

Xu Ran: "Hey guys, I haven't seen you for half a month, do you want to give me a hug?"

Then just hug one.

however……

Who knew that Hu Niu would slip under Xu Ran's arm, her eyes shining with gold... and run towards the trunk of the car.

"Where's the cake? Where's the cake?"

Xu Ran: “…” It was a wrong decision after all.

My mother was delighted: "She talks about your...cake every day."

Xu Ran smiled and shook his head. After all, he was still a child, not even eight years old.

Open the trunk.

Hu Niu's eyes turned into stars: "So many?!"

Aunt Chen: "You can only eat one today, and share some with your classmates. Don't eat it all by yourself."

Hu Niu said "oh" and her golden eyes dimmed a little. It would be great if she could eat alone.

Xu Ran was surprised: "Have your eyes turned golden?"

Hu Niu raised her little face and said, "Yes, yes, it's golden. They say it's very beautiful."

"Sister Yuheng has turned blue."

Xu Ran looked at Zhu Yuheng.

It was indeed blue eyes, as blue as a gem, shining and glittering.

She is eight years and seven months old.

She is pretty, delicate and beautiful, but a little weak and doesn't like to talk.

Hu Niu was quite generous to Zhu Yuheng: "Come, Sister Yuheng, have some cake."

Give Zhu Yuheng a whole cake.

Hu Niu also opened a piece of cake for herself. She was too lazy to use a spoon, so she just picked it up and started to chew it with a humming sound, her face full of happiness and satisfaction.

I haven't eaten cake for 20 days! I finally tasted the sweet taste and was moved to tears!

After only seven or eight bites, she finished the cake and licked her fingers.

In contrast, Zhu Yuheng ate the food one spoonful at a time with a small spoon, looking like a quiet lady.

Hu Niu: "Mom...can I have another piece? I can only eat ten pieces at most. I won't feel full if I eat two pieces..."

Aunt Chen said with a serious expression: "You can only eat once."

Huniu: "What about this double-skin milk? If you don't eat it quickly, it will go bad..."

Aunt Chen: "...Okay, you can eat the double skin milk."

As she spoke, Auntie Chen began distributing sweets. Take some for yourself, take some for the mothers, and take some for the children...

Looking at the trunk with only half of the food left, Hu Niu felt hopeless.

At this point, she had already finished showing off her double-skin milk, and her golden eyes darted around: "Hmm? Brother Xiao Ran, that egg looks really delicious?"

Xu Ran had a serious expression on his face, refusing to eat anything he wanted: "You can't eat that. You have to use it for incubation."

Hu Niu blinked her sparkling golden eyes and said, "Will it lay lots of delicious eggs once they hatch? I know cakes are made of eggs!"

Xu Ran: "Probably won't lay eggs. Once hatched, it will be a war beast, and we can fight together."

Hu Niu looked disappointed: "Aren't they for eating? What a pity..."

Xu Ran said helplessly: "It's not a pity at all. I invested a lot of money in it. It would be a pity if it was only used to lay eggs!"

Hu Niu smiled and said: "Thank you, Brother Xiao Ran, for bringing me some sweets...By the way, Brother Xiao Ran, why did it take you half a month to train this time?

It would be great if you could come back every four or five days like you did before."

Ok?
Xu Ran was too lazy to expose the little brat's little thoughts.

I gave my mom a hug.

My mother looked him up and down and said, "Not bad, you look more resolute! You seem to have grown a lot."

Xu Ran was surprised: "Is there a lot of perseverance?"

Mom touched Xu Ran's head and said, "Yes. I've become more manly. Did you encounter any danger during your training?"

Xu Ran only reported good news and not bad news: "No. My strength has increased a lot."

My mother was full of pride: "You are worthy of being my son, you are awesome!"

After chatting for a while and meeting everyone, the mothers started to play mahjong together.

The children went to class under the guidance of the guards.

Finally it was the headmaster's turn.

The headmaster looked around and asked, "Did we encounter two terrifying mechanical monsters during this training?"

Xu Ran nodded.

The director was feeling quite nervous. Even though he knew Xu Ran was safe, he was still worried. "I heard the second one was even more terrifying. The Tianding Pavilion classified it as a natural disaster. It's capable of creating large-scale illusions... Even the Fire Hell God Slayer Squad and the Purifying Soul God Slayer Squad were almost affected by it."

Xu Ran smiled slightly: "Yes. But it has been broken."

The headmaster said, "I know, you... your comprehension is a great asset! You're so smart you can even analyze monsters on the battlefield!"

"There won't be such dangerous experiences in the future, right?"

Ye Ping couldn't help laughing: "How many days has it been since you slept well, old man?"

The headmaster's expression was serious. "You're still laughing! Xu Ran is so young, he hasn't even reached the Qiu realm yet. If he hadn't encountered a monster with a mechanism that could be broken, who knows how dangerous it would have been! I've been teaching in kindergarten for decades, and this is the first time I've encountered such an ace. Do you think I can sleep well?"

Xu Ran's eyes were firm. "It's okay, Director. Not only did I break its divine power, I also learned a magic technique from it. I failed to kill it this time, but next time we meet, I will give it a scare."

The headmaster was surprised: "You also learned the magic trick?"

Ye Ping talked about the origin of the seed of belief.

The headmaster fell into a long silence.

He couldn't find words to describe this complex emotion...

The headmaster said: "Alas, I can't find any reason to stop you from going through training... After all, for you, training is a way to grow quickly."

Xu Ran smiled faintly: "Don't worry, Director, I still have to follow Uncle Ye to find the talisman and the resentful god."

The headmaster was silent: "Another training?"

Xu Ran: "I have to look for it. 616 days have passed since the Flesh and Blood Altar appeared..."

"The Talisman Resentful God must be secretly doing something bad. Even if he's not doing anything bad, he's preparing some moves. It's impossible for him to be silent."

Ye Ping: "Only Xu Ran can sense the strange aura in the second edition of the strange talisman. Other practitioners cannot sense it..."

The director pondered, "This thing is truly bizarre... The researchers at Tianding Pavilion didn't notice its strangeness... And since the second edition of the strange talisman was cleared out, it hasn't moved. This is extremely unusual."

Muttering to himself.

The director's eyes fell on Xu Ran's face. "Looks like I can only leave it to you. Be sure to pay attention to safety. Go to the investigation team and find a few more Yue Realm experts to cooperate with you in the investigation. How about that?"

Xu Ran shook his head. "No need. Uncle Ye is enough. The talisman-repelling spirit must be dealt with with wisdom... It's always sneaky and cunning, hiding its head and showing its tail, which means it's good at setting up traps..."

"Uncle Ye and I will look around to see if we can find any clues. It won't be too late to find help after we find some."

Principal: "That's fine. When do we leave?"

Xu Ran: "We'll leave in two days. I need to look up some information..."

The talisman-wielding god of resentment has extremely strange methods and is particularly good at hiding himself.

The first batch, the altar of flesh and blood, the real body is not seen.

The second batch, strange talismans, the real body is not seen.

Not even a trace was left.

Xu Ran was extremely troubled by the Talisman Resentful God's hidden methods and had no clue at all!
You have to go through a lot of information to guess several options.

Otherwise, if you just explore casually, you will end up like last time, going around in circles and finding nothing...

That definitely won't work.

It has been 616 days since the Flesh and Blood Altar successfully accumulated power. If it is allowed to remain dormant any longer, it may become difficult to contain!
