Chapter 4: Opening up the Martial Veins
Who?
Ye Feng's mind was shaken, and he looked around the space, but he didn't see any figure. Si Tu Reading.\nCOM
The sound seemed to come from the space itself, but the next moment, when Ye Feng was looking around, a ball of soft light as big as a football appeared in front of him.
"Who else would be here? Of course it's me, Yuan Ling. Hey, kid, what are you looking at? I'm talking about you. I've been waiting for you for a long time..." The mysterious voice said impatiently.
Is this ball of light talking?
"Yuan Ling? Who is Yuan Ling?" Forcibly suppressing the doubt in his heart, Ye Feng looked at it and asked cautiously.
"Who do you care who I am?" The flashing ball of light answered unhappily, "My mission is to help every warrior who enters this place become stronger... It's really getting more and more useless. The last few times I met him, at least he had some talent. This time, why did he choose you, a rubbish without a martial vein?"
It seemed that he could see through the void at a glance, and the ball of light instantly penetrated Ye Feng's reality.
"Who picked you?" Ye Feng asked in confusion, somewhat embarrassed.
The light ball that flew around Ye Feng ignored his question and muttered to itself in a very anthropomorphic way: "Forget it, anyway, the initial ten and eleven are the same as zero martial veins, so don't have too much hope. The mission can only be described in one word: 'too abnormal'. Damn, bad luck. It seems that I will have to sleep for thousands of years again as soon as I open my eyes..."
Ye Feng wanted to clarify that "too abnormal" is three words, but he opened his mouth and held back.
The light ball began to flash again, and after a while, it floated in the air in front of Ye Feng, staring into his eyes and saying: "Boy, you are lucky to see me, Yuan Ling. This is the first time I suffer a loss, and I will open a martial vein for you for free..."
"What, what?"
"Open a martial vein?"
Ye Feng almost bit off his tongue.
But he quickly calmed down, suppressed his excitement and asked: "Can't martial veins only be awakened? How come, can they be opened?"
"Others can't do it, but it doesn't mean I can't." Yuan Ling said carelessly.
"Then, one is useless, can you help me open a few more?"
"You wish. I'll give you a free benefit only once, one at a time." Yuan Ling suddenly emitted a bright light and answered honestly.
In the Yuanwu Continent, martial veins are divided into twelve grades, arranged according to the four grades of "Heaven and Earth Xuanhuang".
Having one martial vein is a lower-grade yellow talent, two middle-grade yellow talents, and so on.
The number of martial veins determines the level that a warrior can reach in the future. With each additional martial vein, the training speed and the total amount of accumulated true energy in the body will be greatly improved. Generally, a warrior with three martial veins, that is, a high-grade yellow talent, can only practice to the sixth or seventh level of the warrior realm in his lifetime.
Most warriors are in this echelon, silently serving as "foil".
And those with more than four Xuan-level martial veins have the hope of breaking through to become innate martial artists.
As for the more powerful earth-level and heaven-level, there is only one in ten thousand. Such people are called geniuses, and they can be admired by the world wherever they go.
Of course, this is a bit far from Ye Feng. He had not awakened a single martial vein before, and if this grumpy light ball Yuan Ling could only open up one martial vein for him, it would be the lowest yellow-level first-grade talent, just a little better than a waste.
But being a little better than a waste is still a waste, so what is there to expect too much?
Ye Feng's excited mind instantly withered again.
"Damn it, you still look unwilling? Do you know what martial vein I'm going to open up for you?"
The Yuan Ling cursed, "The Eternal Green Vein, I won't tell ordinary people. If you don't die, I'll sleep for thousands of years, who cares about your life or death."
Ye Feng was a little speechless.
"Eternal Green Vein?" It sounds awesome.
Before he could react, the ball of light in front of him suddenly flew up and crashed into Ye Feng's Dantian.
Ye Feng looked down and saw that there was a golden seed in the Dantian.
"How can you see through my body?" Just as he was still in a daze, the golden seed began to take root and sprout quickly. The blood and qi in his body were inspired to swarm in, and soon the top of the seed cracked and a small bud squeezed out.
The bud became thicker and stronger at a speed visible to the naked eye. After absorbing a certain amount of blood and qi, it reached a length of several inches.
After a few breaths, the growth of the seed stagnated. The bud penetrated from the Dantian and was implanted into the meridians along the blood flow. The whole golden seed was like a small heart, breathing with Ye Feng's breathing.
Everything seemed natural, as if it had always existed in Ye Feng's body.
"Okay, the martial vein is complete, and we're done. You can get out of here now. Next time you come in, remember to bring energy, bring energy, bring energy. I say it three times because it's important. As long as you have energy, you can do whatever you want. You can't take advantage of me every time for free." At some point, the ball of light floated above Ye Feng's head again.
But compared to before, its flashing light was slightly dimmer. After saying the last sentence, the ball of light suddenly exploded, and instantly transformed into thousands of starlight points and drifted away.
This mysterious space also began to spin like a wooden horse.
"Hey, Yuan Ling, you haven't told me what energy means? And how can I get in next time?"
Before he could finish his words, the white jade-like round table space had completely disappeared. When he opened his eyes, Ye Feng found that he was still sitting at the head of the bed.
He touched his arm, there was no change, and looked down at his stomach again.
Of course, he couldn't see through it now.
"Just now, was it just a dream?" Ye Feng looked confused.
Just as he had this thought, his body trembled violently, and a wisp of warm air flow in his body was growing. A strong sense of power that he had never had before surged into his body. That kind of power made Ye Feng want to raise his arms and shout.
"This is..."
Ye Feng was stunned. Although he was not sure what this warm airflow was, the words "internal energy" subconsciously floated into Ye Feng's mind.
