Transactions and returns

Cao Hao took a sip of wine and explained calmly: "In the early days of Shenwu Continent, the Martial Lord Realm, the Wuhou Realm, and the Martial King Realm. These third-level realms require three major awakenings, namely the first bloodline awakening and the second awakening. The awakening of the martial soul and the third awakening of the martial heart. Each awakening is a huge leap in the realm of strength. Gu Hanjian's bloodline talent is very poor, so early bloodline awakening will be more difficult. But he has innate martial arts There is no need to awaken the heart. So once he becomes the late Wuhou, it will almost be a matter of course for him to enter the realm of Wuwang."

"In comparison, it is much more difficult for others to awaken their martial heart. Eighty years ago, I broke through the Wuhou stage and became the best on the "Canglan Haoyue Ranking", ranking third in the palace examination. I only need In just fifty years, he reached the peak of the Wuhou realm and became the famous Jiuwuhou. However, he stagnated after that. Thirty years later, he still could not break through to the Wuwang realm. Without awakening the heart of martial arts for one day, he fell into a trap. Japan cannot enter the realm of King Wu."

When Cao Hao said this, he sighed, obviously sighing for himself.

Ye Fan somewhat understood.

The first level, bloodline awakening! The second level, the martial soul awakens! The third level, the awakening of martial heart!

I have completed my first bloodline awakening and reached the third level of the Martial Lord Realm. I only need to practice hard and awaken the remaining bloodlines to enter the later stage of the Martial Lord Realm.

As for the awakening of the martial soul, he has not yet understood it in depth. He plans to start preparing for the awakening of the martial soul in the later stage of the martial master and break through to the Wuhou stage.

The awakening of the heart of martial arts is a more distant thing. It will only be needed at the peak of the late Wuhou realm to enter the Martial King realm. He didn't want to aim too high and basically didn't think much about it.

Dean Cao had said before at the beginning of the banquet that there were only two young people in Donglai County who were qualified to attend the Cao family banquet.

One is him, and the other refers to Gu Hanjian, who is very likely to become King Wu in the future.

In contrast, Princess Li Hao and Princess Ling Jiaojiao were not in the eyes of Dean Cao.

It's not unusual for Senior Brother Gu Hanjian to be favored by Dean Cao.

But, why am I considered one of them? He doesn't have a natural desire for martial arts. Apart from his outstanding performance in all aspects of the nine major departments, there is nothing unusual about him.

Ye Fan was puzzled.

Cao Hao didn't pay attention to Ye Fan's confusion, nor did he explain why he listed Ye Fan and Gu Hanjian as the only two young people. He just talked about his high-spirited years.

At a young age, he became the most outstanding young man Wuhou in Donglai County. He was promoted to the Imperial Academy and jumped to the top of the "Canglan Haoyue Ranking".

His biggest regret was that during the Canglan Kingdom's palace examination, the wine policy he wrote did not enter the eyes of the king, and he failed to become the leader of that session.

Ye Fan was not impatient, but listened carefully.

The life experience of a Wuhou, whether he is high-spirited or unsuccessful, is a very valuable experience. What's more, Dean Cao Hao is still the most outstanding martial artist at the peak of Wuhou Realm.

Cao Hao sighed, and finally remembered that the topic he was talking about was a bit far away.

He came to find Ye Fan tonight, but he had several important things to explain, and it was not just these nagging words.

"Ye Fan, you hid in Donglai County for a year and practiced hard for a year last year. Your strength has greatly increased, and you have done very well. The way of divine martial arts is not about winning and losing in a short period of time. It is always right to keep a low profile. If you have been concentrating on it, I don't need to worry about your cultivation. However, yesterday you offended Princess Jiaojiao and Li Hao, which is a huge hidden danger. Neither of them is easy to mess with. Dean Mu asked me to take care of you, but I can't Regardless of your safety in Donglai City."

Cao Hao looked at Ye Fan seriously and warned.

"Let Dean worry! I will try my best not to conflict with them again!"

Ye Fan nodded.

"If you don't mess with them, they'll probably come to trouble you."

Dean Cao Hao's worry remained undiminished, and he shook his head and said: "At the boating party last night, a Chu Hailiang died. How could the adults watching at the East City Gate not see that there was something wrong? However, Li Zhouying probably knew in his heart that this was his son's sect. He didn't want this matter to be a stain on his son. General Pan didn't want this matter to involve Pan Yun. I don't want this matter to involve you either. None of us wanted to pursue it, so we covered it up so lightly. In the past, Chu Hailiang's death was unclear. If you continue to fight secretly, I'm afraid you won't know who will die next time. You are in the early stage of Wuzun, and you are too weak in Donglai City. For now, I can only let you leave. Donglai County, avoid them! At least until the late stage of Wuzun Realm, avoid any further conflicts with them."

"Dean Cao, I am preparing to leave Donglai City temporarily and go out to practice for a year and a half!"

"Is there somewhere to go?"

"...it has not been determined yet."

Ye Fan shook his head.

He does not plan to go to the Phuket Islands again.

If Li Hao was willing to investigate, he would definitely find that he had practiced in the Buji Islands. If he goes to Buji Islands again, maybe Li Hao will find a group of martial masters and surround him. There is no way to escape on the islands in the vast East China Sea, and it is the end of the siege.

He needs to find another place to practice, either to hide his traces and go to another hidden island, or on land. After practicing for another three or four years, he will not be afraid of Li Hao and the others at all.

Cao Hao pondered for a moment and made a suggestion: "Don't you already have ten boat race tokens in your hand? They are adventurer maps collected by President Wang of the Donglai County Adventure Guild. They can be used by It will definitely be a good thing to give it out as the best prize in this year's ten consecutive boat races. You might as well go to that adventurous place, maybe you can get a lot of benefits! And that place is in another county, far away from here. "

"Does the dean know what the situation is like in the adventure place?"

"I'm not sure. I just heard from President Wang that it seems to be an unexplored underground palace, where many ghosts gather. This kind of underground palace can usually yield a lot of harvest."

Cao Hao said.

Ye Fan was wondering whether he should go to that place and take a look.

The only concern is that he mainly practiced five blood-repairing combat skills and one blood-repairing technique in the past year. The way of blood cultivation requires a large supply of qi and blood, so it is best to find a place where a large number of orcs gather for cultivation.

The ghosts are dead creatures with no vitality and blood, so they obviously do not help his cultivation.

However, he has now awakened three bloodlines at the third level of the Martial Master Stage, and is planning to practice ice, wind, and thunder combat skills to enhance the power of his lethal combat skills.

In this case, there is nothing wrong with going to that adventurous place to practice.

 "I gonna go see!"

Ye Fan nodded.

"You may encounter danger on this trip. I have here the wine-based combat skill rune "Wine Mist Explosion", which is a powerful and wide-range combat skill. Although "Wine Mist Explosion" is one rune, there are two Huge effect.

One is to spray out wine mist and turn the wine into a large mist. If you don't detonate it, once the invading enemies inhale the mist, they will quickly become intoxicated and lose their combat effectiveness. This is only useful for Orcs and Terrans.

Second, it directly detonates a large area of wine mist, which has extremely powerful killing power and a huge coverage area. This power is only related to the grade and quantity of the wine, and has little to do with your own cultivation level. This move can cause powerful damage to any race.

The only drawback is that it requires a large amount of high-level wine to be used to perform this combat skill. Without wine, this rune combat skill is useless.

You just won ten small gourds of third-order Wuhou-level fine wine at the banquet, which is just right for you to take with you. One small gourd can be used to perform "Wine Mist Explosion" once. Even if there is danger on this trip, as long as the opponent is not in the Wuhou realm, he can save his life. "

Cao Hao took out a roll of runes.

"Thank you, Dean!"

Ye Fan was overjoyed. Having this rune and the third-level wine on him will undoubtedly make him much safer.

"I'm not giving it to you for free! I have something to ask of you. If you agree, I can give you this rune!"

Cao Hao waved his hand and smiled lightly.

 "Please say!"

"You also met my granddaughter Youwen. How is she?"

"She is quite quiet and simple, a lady who is both beautiful and smart."

Ye Fan said after considering it.

"She is very talented, which is rare in my Cao family. But she has been pampered in the Cao family since she was a child, and she has not suffered much at the age of sixteen or seventeen. This time you go to the adventure place, take her with you, and let her follow you Go out and have some experience. The only people worthy of trust in Donglai County are you and Gu Hanjian, but Gu Hanjian has been practicing in seclusion and does not go out, so forget it. I don't trust others, so I will let her go with you. See the world outside."

Cao Hao laughed.

"Shall I take her to practice?"

Ye Fan was stunned for a moment, then smiled bitterly.

When he goes to a place of adventure, he actually brings a tow truck with him. Isn't this a problem for him? From this point of view, I am afraid that this is the real reason why Dean Cao invited him to the family dinner.

Ye Fan quickly declined: "That's a dangerous place. I'm afraid I won't take good care of your granddaughter."

Cao Hao said: "Add another jar of 'Fire Cloud Burning'!"

Ye Fan said euphemistically: "I am only in the early stage of Wu Zun, and my strength is limited. It is better to ask a later Wu Zun to take her..."

Cao Hao said without blinking: "Add another jar of 'Ice Snow Soul' and a jar of 'Wind Knife'!"

 "All right!"

Ye Fan had no choice but to agree.

Cao Hao seems to have made up his mind. These three jars of third-level wine are worth no less than thousands of yuan stones and can be used to perform "Wine Mist Explosion" many, many times.

This reward is enough for him to bring a "oil bottle" to go out for training.

But then again, Cao Youwen is in the middle stage of martial arts cultivation and is higher than him, so she is not a complete sluggish person. It's just that she is simple-minded and lacks the experience of outside training.

"Then student, please leave first! I'll make preparations in the next two days and set off in three days!"

Ye Fan stood up, took the things Dean Cao gave him, and said goodbye.

"Well, you go back and prepare first."

Cao Hao nodded and smiled lightly, watched Ye Fan leave, and drank alone in the pavilion.

After a while, Cao Youwen came to the pavilion to meet Cao Hao. She had sobered up from the drunkenness at the previous banquet.

"Youwen, what do you think of Ye Fan?"

Cao Hao put down his cup and asked calmly.

"My granddaughter thinks he is unfathomable. Yesterday he led the team to pass the ten consecutive boat races, which shows that he is proficient in all departments and has profound knowledge. Unexpectedly, he is also proficient in a rare miscellaneous department such as the wine department. He is a peerless genius. Talent."

Cao Youwen's childish and beautiful eyes were a little blurry, and she said softly.

"Yes, the future is formidable! The boy from the Gu family can become the King of Wu within a hundred years. His future is limitless and his potential is unmatched by anyone in Donglai County. I originally thought that if the Cao and Gu families could get married, it would be a great success. Fortunately, my Cao family will definitely have no worries in the next four to five hundred years. But the Gu family also knows the potential of that boy, and will definitely not agree to this easily. Only Ye Fan's potential is bottomless, and I can't see it with my eyesight. Show his depth. I am afraid that he may become a Martial Emperor in the future."

"Emperor Wu? Then his future stage will be the entire Zixuan Dynasty!"

Cao Youwen looked shocked.

Cao Hao said lightly: "Since he resurrected the bloodline of the Mammoth clan, he has become a usable chess piece in the eyes of the Zixuan Dynasty, standing on the stage of the thousand-year battle between the Zixuan Dynasty and the Orc Alliance. Countless people want to be He couldn't get the chess piece, but he did it easily. The significance of this chess piece was even higher than that of the king of Canglan Kingdom. If he could live to become a martial emperor, he could jump from a chess piece to a chess player and promote the destiny of the entire human race. You go out with him to practice for a year and a half, and if possible... try to win over him."
