Under the brilliant night sky, in the quiet desert, every word that 'Iron God' Yan Ba uttered was like a shooting star falling next to Li Yao and Ding Ling Dong, raising a riot.
Li Yao and Ding Ling Dong looked at each other and said sincerely, "I'm sorry, Senior Yan. We didn't know until this moment that the belief of the body fundamentalists is understood in such a way."
"Belief …" Yan Ba sighed.
"I'm 264 years old. Almost all the Yuanying Cultivators are about the same age as me. Sha Tianming, the youngest Yuanying Cultivator in the Federation, is almost two hundred years old, too. Therefore, everybody calls us' Yuanying Old Monsters'. We're not exactly Old Monsters, but we're really old.
"More than two hundred years ago, I was born in a small village in the depths of the Grand Desolate Plateau. Everybody in the village lived by exploiting a mother lode of crystals. My parents were the guardians of the village that the Devilish Fist Sect sent to protect.
"More than two hundred years ago, the demons in the Tian Yuan Realm hadn't been completely eradicated yet. The Grand Desolate Plateau was full of demon caves and demon kingdoms. The two parties attacked and defended each other. Fierce battles broke out every day.
"Since human beings hadn't controlled the entire Grand Desolate Plateau yet, the beast tides of the Blood Demon Sector invaded more conveniently. They could gather in the uninhabited area unhurriedly. After they gathered an army of thousands, they would march forward in a destructive manner and swallow everything in their way.
"Before I was ten, I experienced dozens of beast tide outbreaks, probably more than many Cultivators today have seen in their entire lives.
"When I was eleven, I saw an overwhelming beast tide swallowing the sky, the earth, and my hometown with my own eyes.
"Although my parents were not talented, they were both maniacs in training. After they were sent to the village, they trained crazily every day. They were already in the high level of the Building Foundation Stage by then. But what could they do?
"To cover the villagers' retreat as soon as possible. They rushed into the beast tide without hesitation, but they didn't even last ten minutes before they were drowned by the beast tide. "
"They were traded. Twelve children, including me, were rescued by the reinforcements of the Devilish Fist Sect in time. All the remaining villagers, houses, cattle, and sheep were devoured. "
"After the beast tide retreated, we returned to the village. There was no sign of the village's existence. There wasn't even a trace of blood. Everything had been swallowed up."
"Cultivators born in the past hundred years, including your generation, live in the era when the Xing Yao Federation was at its strongest. In your eyes, a peaceful environment is a matter of course. "
"But us old Yuanying monsters were mostly born in the era of war. We've seen the apocalypse with our own eyes countless times. When we were young, no one could guarantee that the Federation would still exist if we went to bed today and woke up tomorrow morning."
"That is why we deeply understand. If we don't unite and do our best, the Xing Yao Federation and the human civilization of the Heaven's Origin Sector will be destroyed. It is very likely that it will be destroyed, and what will be left after it is destroyed will not be a tombstone, but the excrement of a monster beast. "
"Dao heart? Competition of beliefs? "
"Is it better to use a saber or a sword? Is spiritual energy particles or waves? In the eyes of us old Yuanying monsters who have experienced the apocalypse, such differences are bullsh * t competition of beliefs!"
"In my opinion, the so-called competition of beliefs refers to only one thing. It is the competition of living space between human beings and alien species in the sea of stars! "
"Here we are. It is the life-and-death competition of the human race of the Heaven's Origin Sector and the Blood Demon Sector! "
"Let the Xing Yao Federation be stronger and let the fire of civilization of the human race of the Heaven's Origin Sector burn brighter and brighter." "Burn the entire universe!" "That is my Dao. That is my Dao heart!"
"If sabers can defend our Federation and our civilization, then I will use sabers."
"If fists can do it, then I will use fists."
"If guns can do it, then I don't mind blowing up the heads of all the demon kings and demon emperors with whistling bullets, either."
"Most of the old Yuanying monsters share the same ideology as me. That is why we are willing to burn our soul, blossom our life, and condense our precious Dao heart for the Building Foundation Stage Cultivators like you."
"How about it? Do you still think that there is a competition of beliefs between you and me?"
Li Yao and Ding Ling Dong were silent for a long time. Their heavy breaths were the only sound in the desert at night. They looked at each other and said at the same time,
"Senior Yan, we are willing to accept your spiritual seed!"
…
At five o 'clock in the morning, at the bottom floor of the underground training base …
Li Yao was lying on a metal platform, his limbs stretched out. A lot of spiritual threads were entangling his body. Six artificial arms were shuttling quickly around him.
The silver wall slid open without a sound. The artificial arms took out a crystal cylinder that was emitting cold air. Inside the crystal was a tiny ball of light that was emitting dazzling white light. It was bouncing and glittering like a transparent hedgehog.
It was the spiritual seed of the old Yuanying monsters.
The artificial arms placed the crystal cylinder on Li Yao's forehead softly. The other artificial arms immediately took out metal rings and put them on, fixing the cylinder and Li Yao's head.
In the end, a piece of magical equipment that could release high-pressure air was placed behind the cylinder.
A gentle voice came over. "Li Yao, are you ready? It might hurt a little."
Li Yao took a deep breath and made a 'yes' gesture.
"Alright. Spiritual seed injection. Countdown of five seconds begins. Five, four, three, two, one, inject!"
"Chi!"
After a soft sound, the spiritual seed inside the crystal cylinder disappeared.
Li Yao, on the other hand, screamed miserably. All the veins on his body were bulging. His eyes were wide open and bloodshot. His hands left ten deep claw marks on the edge of the metal bed below him!
…
At ten o 'clock in the morning, inside a gravity room in the underground training base …
The gravity had been adjusted to one-tenth of the standard gravity. A gentle breeze was blowing from the underground.
Li Yao and Ding Ling Dong were almost naked. They only used the simplest cloth to cover their private parts. Their hands were open while they floated in midair.
Countless colorful jade spiders were crawling on their bodies.
As they crawled, tiny spots were appearing on their bodies. The tiny spots were connected and gradually formed two complicated patterns.
Floating in the air opposite them was a beautiful middle-aged woman with a jade-like appearance. Colorful tattoos were all over her body. There was not a single blank spot on her body. If one were to look at her carefully … Even his pupils were filled with intricate spirit tattoos. Countless demon spirits seemed to be dancing in the depths of her eyes.
The middle-aged woman quickly made a gesture and mumbled to herself. Countless octagonal, glittering runes were circling around her body.
Her hands seemed to be pulling thousands of spiritual threads. Every jade spider was manipulating them to create a new pattern on their bodies.
Li Yao and Ding Ling Dong felt that their eyelids were twitching. They bit their lips so hard that they couldn't even grunt.
The injection of spiritual seed was already painful enough. They didn't expect that the tattoos would be as painful as the injection of spiritual seed.
However, they weren't dissatisfied at all. Instead, they were excited.
Because the 'beautiful middle-aged woman' in front of them was actually more than 250 years old. She was' Miracle Brush 'Xie Ling, the best spiritual tattooist of the Xing Yao Federation!
After reading the files and combat videos of all the Orb Patrollers, 'Miracle Brush' Xie Ling personally drew spiritual tattoos for five of them. Li Yao and Ding Ling Dong were among them.
The powerful spiritual tattoos drawn by a spiritual tattooist were not something that any Cultivator could bear easily.
It was especially so for 'Miracle Brush' Xie Ling, a super expert of the Yuanying level, who had created the powerful spiritual tattoos. Normal Cultivators couldn't bear them at all.
It was also the reason why the profession of 'Body Practitioner' continued to exist.
Many powerful spiritual tattoos could only be used by Body Practitioners.
The resistance ability and the unparalleled body that Li Yao had demonstrated in the battle videos made him qualified to receive a spiritual tattoo that Xie Ling, the 'Miraculous Brush', had personally pierced into him.
As for the other Orb Patrollers who didn't get a spiritual tattoo, they could choose one or two invaluable treasures from the treasury of Occult Orbs Fellowship. It wasn't a loss for them.
As' Miracle Brush 'Xie Ling's hands moved faster and faster, the speed of the jade spiders gradually increased, too. On their bodies. Two supreme spiritual tattoos drawn with spiritual ink made of thousands of Heavenly Materials and Earthly Treasures. Gradually, they took shape.
On Ding Ling Dong's body, one was drawn from her chest to her back. It was entangled by a nine-headed dragon condensed by flames. As she breathed, the nine-headed dragon was roaring and baring its fangs and claws, as if it were riding the clouds.
On Li Yao's body, on the other hand, was a primitive bloody phoenix. It was flapping its wings and chasing after the wind as fast as lightning. Its extremely long tails extended to his limbs like nine bloody chains.
"Chi!"
'Miracle Brush' Xie Ling bellowed. All the jade spiders jumped up from their bodies and were quickly stored into her Cosmos Ring.
The glamorous tattoos on their bodies vanished into the depths of their flesh after a moment of blinding brilliance.
At first glance, their skin was still smooth and clean. There was no trace of the tattoos at all.
It was the most advanced technique of 'Hidden Blue Ink'. The spiritual tattoos were hidden deep inside the flesh and blood. They would neither affect the daily training nor be seen through by the enemy.
Only when the spiritual energy was triggered in a fierce battle would the spiritual tattoos be revealed.
The two tattoos were brand-new spiritual tattoos that 'Miracle Brush' Xie Ling had carefully developed based on their features after studying their files and battle videos. They were unique and belonged to the two of them.
Ding Ling Dong's spiritual tattoo was named 'Nine Dragons Berserk Fire'. It was triggered by her fury and could improve her utilization of the spiritual energy of the fire class.
The more furious she was, the higher her combat ability would be. Her combat ability could be improved by more than 30% at best!
Li Yao's spiritual tattoo was named 'Immortal Blood Phoenix'. It was triggered by his blood. The more blood he lost, the more the spiritual tattoo would be triggered, and the greater the improvement of his combat ability would be.
In other words, with the spiritual tattoo, the more heavily wounded he was, the higher his combat ability would be!
Of course, both 'Nine Dragons Berserk Fire' and 'Immortal Blood Phoenix' were essentially stimulating the central nerves and brain cells crazily to trigger the potential of life on a deeper level. It was the same logic as burning one's life.
But as Cultivators, what they were after was to burn their life to the maximum and illuminate the entire universe, wasn't it?
It was 1: 32 in the afternoon.
