Liu Ming couldn't help but grab the bracelet with one hand. His face was filled with astonishment.
The bracelet was light as a feather, as if it had no weight at all.
"This is Young Master Bai's Practitioner Weapon?" Liu Ming held the copper ring in his hand and carefully played with it for a while before asking.
"That's right. The Tiger's Bite Bracelet is a rare high-grade practitioner weapon that can be used both offensively and defensively. Even in the Bai Clan, it can be ranked in the top ten. "Gu Lao San looked at the bracelet as he explained, a trace of reluctance on his face.
"However, if you want to activate it, I'm afraid that you will first have to learn the simplest method of controlling your Yuan Qi. This method will be passed on to you along the way so that you will be able to activate the bracelet as soon as possible. "Guan Lao Da said.
"This junior thanks the two seniors." Liu Ming said with a trace of excitement. He immediately put the copper bracelet on his right wrist and felt a trace of coolness from it.
"Very good. However, your current appearance is still a bit off. You need to make some changes to prevent the emissaries from noticing." Guan Lao Da nodded his head before glancing at Liu Ming's face.
"How do I change it?" Liu Ming frowned when he heard this.
Even though his appearance was ordinary, he didn't want anyone to do anything to his face.
"Haha, don't worry, little brother! We will definitely not destroy your original appearance. We will only slightly change your hair and skin color. Gu Lao San is the expert in this area. Just leave it to him. "Guan Lao Da seemed to see through the youth's worries and explained with a smile.
"If that's the case, then there is no problem. Senior Gu, I will trouble you then. "Liu Ming relaxed and agreed.
"Hehe, this is a small matter. Before I became a Qi Practitioner, I was known as the Hundred-faced Man, "Gu Lao San replied with a chuckle.
He then turned around and took out a few bottles and a few abnormally sharp knives and scissors from his bag. He then waved at the youth.
Liu Ming hesitated for a moment before he stood up and walked over.
An hour later, a shiny bronze mirror appeared in front of Liu Ming, reflecting his face clearly.
"His eyebrows are a little lighter than before, and his originally uneven sideburns have been neatly trimmed. At the same time, there's an additional silver headband on his forehead, giving him a more scholarly air out of nowhere. But the biggest change is still … "
Liu Ming raised both of his hands. His palms, which were originally considered healthy, suddenly became abnormally fair, giving off a feeling of being pampered.
"Take this bottle of lotion and use it to scrub your body every night. I will give you a few more bottles on the way. This way, when we reach the Barbarian Ghost Sect, your skin color should be fixed for a while. No one would notice if his skin color gradually faded and returned to normal. Even though I haven't used this disguise technique in the past few years, it seems that my skills haven't regressed too much. "Gu Lao San said proudly as he held the bronze mirror.
Guan Lao Da looked at the youth from head to toe and revealed a satisfied expression.
The current Liu Ming looked even more like him than before. As long as it wasn't someone who was familiar with the Bai Clan's young master, no one would be able to see through his disguise.
Even though Liu Ming had never seen the Bai Clan's young master, he knew that his disguise was a success from the two's satisfied expressions. He relaxed a little.
Now that he was tied to the two of them, if he couldn't get away with it, his life would be in danger.
"Haha, from now on, you are the young master of the two of us. Don't call us senior anymore, just call us' Guan Da 'and' Gu San '. This will prevent us from giving ourselves away." Guan Lao Da said with a serious expression.
"I understand." Liu Ming hesitated for a while, then replied solemnly.
… …
A day later, a small, light yellow boat traveled along the river, heading downstream at full speed.
On the small boat, Gu Lao San steered the boat with both hands while glancing at the cabin from time to time.
In there, Liu Ming was sitting cross-legged under Guan Lao Da's guidance.
On a short table in front of him, the Tiger's Bite Bracelet was quietly placed there.
Suddenly, Liu Ming let out a low roar as he raised his arm and pointed a finger at the bracelet.
"Pu!"
The copper ring only trembled slightly on the small table, and then there was no more movement.
Seeing this, Liu Ming furrowed his eyebrows.
"Not bad, in such a short amount of time, you were able to make your Yuan Li react to the Tiger's Bite Bracelet. It seems that you have some talent in controlling Practitioner Weapons." The middle aged man to the side clapped his hands with a satisfied expression.
"Didn't you say that I only had two months to train?" Liu Ming asked slowly.
"Young master doesn't know, but the Tiger's Bite Bracelet is a high tier Practitioner Weapon. It is not easy to control. According to what I know, the Bai Clan should have a special method to control Yuan Li for this Practitioner Weapon. Right now, I am only using a normal method to control it, so the effect is much weaker. However, with your talent, two months should be enough for you to grasp the basics of the Practitioner Weapon. "Guan Lao Da explained.
"Since 'Guan Da' says there is no problem, then there should be no problem. However, after mastering the Tiger's Bite Bracelet, I still need to learn a few offensive and defensive methods. I'm afraid that it will take quite a bit of time. "Liu Ming blinked his eyes before replying.
"Young master doesn't need to worry about this. As long as you can master the Yuan Li Technique and connect with the Practitioner Weapon to a certain degree, the other methods will only be a matter of practice. "Guan Lao Da replied without hesitation.
"So that's how it is. Then I will focus on practicing the Yuan Li Technique. That's right, what kind of sect is the Barbarian Ghost Sect? Guan Da should know a bit about it. "Liu Ming nodded his head before suddenly remembering something.
"Young master wants to know about the Barbarian Ghost Sect? This is a bit difficult. Even though the Barbarian Ghost Sect is one of the last few sects in the Da Xuan Kingdom, it is definitely the most mysterious. There aren't many rumors about it. "Guan Lao Da's face revealed a trace of embarrassment after hearing this.
"Oh, why is that?" The youth was a bit surprised.
"Because the Barbarian Ghost Sect is a sect that is famous for its use of ghosts. I've heard that the sect is built in a place where normal people cannot survive. It is surrounded by Yin Qi all year round, and the Spirit Apostles and Spirit Masters that practice the Barbarian Sect's methods have the ability to sense the Yin Qi of the Yellow Springs. They can also summon ghosts to fight against their enemies. However, because of this, there aren't many disciples from other clans that choose to participate in the Opening Spirit Ceremony. As long as they have the qualifications, most of them go to other Sect. Of course, this is only relative. As for other relevant information, I really don't know. "Guan Lao Da replied after thinking for a while.
"Enslaving ghosts does sound very sinister. However, other than the Barbarian Ghost Sect, the other sects in the Da Xuan Kingdom are … "Liu Ming muttered to himself before asking curiously.
"I know a bit more about the other sects. Other than the Barbarian Ghost Sect, the Da Xuan Kingdom also has the Heavenly Moon Sect, the Hall of Blood, the Nine Enlightenment Mountain, and the Firestorm Way. "Guan Lao Da explained one by one.
"Oh, what spells do these Sect specialize in?" Liu Ming had a look of excitement on his face.
"The Heavenly Moon Sect is a Sect that specializes in flying swords. It is said that their disciples can use flying swords to kill enemies within a hundred feet. As for the Hall of Blood …"
Guan Lao Da didn't hide anything about these sects and explained them to the youth in detail.
… …
Half a month later, a jet-black carriage pulled by four fine horses sped along an official road that was covered in yellow soil.
At the front of the carriage, Gu Lao San sat motionlessly with a calm expression on his face.
Within the carriage, Liu Ming sat cross-legged with his eyes closed. His two hands were naturally placed on his knees and he breathed in and out in a rhythmic manner.
The copper bracelet on his wrist flickered as the youth breathed.
It was as if the two were resonating with each other.
Guan Lao Da sat in the other corner of the carriage and nodded his head as he observed the scene.
To be honest, in his mind, the youth's aptitude was only average. However, the amount of effort Liu Ming put into practicing his Yuan Li during the journey was shocking.
Aside from sleeping, Liu Ming was constantly using the Yuan Li in his body to feel the connection between him and the Tiger's Bite Bracelet.
Even when he was eating and talking, the bracelet on his wrist could be faintly seen flashing a faint yellow light.
One had to know that this type of training was extremely dry and tasteless. Furthermore, it required a high level of concentration.
No matter how persevering an ordinary Qi Practitioner was, they would only be able to persist in this kind of cultivation for a few hours a day at most. Any longer and their mind would definitely be unable to focus due to exhaustion, and it would be completely useless to continue cultivating.
Out of curiosity, the two naturally asked Liu Ming how he was able to do this.
In the end, the youth simply said that he was born with the ability to "do two things at once", leaving them speechless.
Now they finally understood why Liu Ming was able to cultivate Yuan Li at such a young age without the guidance of a master.
… …
A month later, Guan Lao Da and Gu Lao San were standing on a small mound of dirt that was over a hundred feet tall.
In the direction they were looking, Liu Ming had his eyes closed and was circulating his Yuan Li. He raised his arm with the Tiger's Bite Bracelet up high.
Suddenly, he opened his eyes, shook his wrist, and spat out the two words "Yuan Shield".
In that instant, the bracelet on his wrist let out a buzzing sound. With a flash of yellow light, a small round shield with a diameter of a foot appeared and stuck to his arm.
The shield was a misty yellow and was made entirely out of Yuan Li.
"You've finally succeeded! Even though it is only a simple Yuan Li defense technique, it is enough to show that you have begun to control the Tiger's Bite Bracelet. I originally thought that it would take you two months to reach this step, but I didn't think that you would be able to do it in such a short amount of time. "Guan Lao Da let out a long breath, unable to hide the shock on his face.
"This is all thanks to the two of you's careful guidance. Now that I have this Practitioner Weapon to protect me, I have a bit more confidence in participating in the Opening Spirit Ceremony. "Liu Ming said with a smile. With another shake of his arm, the round shield disappeared.
