Traveling across the globe for the first time
Chapter 1037 Too insidious
Chapter 1037 Too insidious
After listening to the introduction of the Human Emperor, Zhang Haoran was not disappointed, but relieved. Since he could not meet the requirements, he could not learn the skills.
That means that once you can pass the level, the other party must teach you how to change the quality of your qi and blood. The rules are always fair.
Well, at least it's relatively fair.
The Human Emperor smiled and said, "Young man! Work hard, I believe in you!"
The two chatted for such a long time, but the Human Emperor didn't ask his name, which showed that there was not much sincerity in his words. Most importantly, the other party still didn't give any hint on what the conditions for failure were, as if such a rule didn't exist at all.
Allowing failure 100 times is just his own judgment. Maybe the chances are even less. We must never overestimate the bottom line of these old silver coins.
Zhang Haoran couldn't directly ask how many times he had to fail before being kicked out, otherwise it would mean distrust, and they might even turn against each other and start fighting. Then he wouldn't be able to learn the method of changing the nature of his qi and blood.
The Human Emperor turned around and was about to go back. He had just taken a step when he turned his head back and reminded him, "Don't be too anxious, young man. The flow of time here is different from that in the outside world. A year here is only a month in the outside world, so you can practice with peace of mind.
I am in the bamboo building ahead. Wait until you can fully control your Qi and blood, then come find me!"
The other party spoke very sincerely, and there was no hostility in his voice at all.
However, Zhang Haoran cursed in his heart: "I believed your lies, this old silver coin is very bad!
If I fail the challenge, won’t you just kick me out?
You're in such a hurry to leave, are you planning to do something secretly?"
We have to be on guard against this!
These old silver coins usually do things very carefully, so it is normal for them to have two plans.
If the person who comes is a friend or an ordinary warrior with no connection.
Then it would be enough to test it with the loupe flowers in the front yard. If the person coming was an enemy, or a warrior he disliked and didn't want to let pass, he would take him to the backyard. He could think of such a simple layout with just his heels.
Considering the wealth of the Human Emperor, he must have prepared more tricks to deceive people, so he must not be allowed to leave.
Zhang Haoran hates these old silver coins the most and has been thinking about how to deal with them.
The most important point is that once you meet the opponent, you must keep a close eye on him and never give him time to plan his moves calmly, otherwise you will be badly tricked.
He flashed and blocked the path of the Human Emperor, scratched his head in a sheepish manner and said, "Well, I will definitely practice hard and try not to disappoint the Human Emperor.
But could you please demonstrate it first? Let me see what it's like to have 100% control over your Qi and Blood.
There should be some other requirements!"
He asked the Emperor to demonstrate it personally in order to understand the rules involved.
He believed that this flower garden was definitely not simple, and that you couldn't pass it just by controlling your qi and blood 100%.
A look of surprise flashed across the Human Emperor's face. He was shocked by his speed. How could a powerful person who had broken through the eighth level have such a fast speed?
In fact, this is very normal. Even if Zhang Haoran does not open the sword field, he can still move short distances.
His sword steps will improve as his strength increases, especially when they are integrated with several advanced body techniques such as the Junzi Wanlixing, he can completely shrink the ground into an inch and teleport over short distances.
The strength of the Human Emperor's clone is only at level nine, so it's normal that he can't react.
Zhang Haoran showed this trick to intimidate the other party. Don’t fucking think that I’m a soft persimmon that can be bullied at will. If they dare to play tricks again, I’ll just turn against them and start fighting.
The Human Emperor immediately became alert. He knew that with the other party's speed, if he really turned against him, he would definitely suffer no good consequences. He was not a projection and could not be resurrected after death.
So he said calmly on the surface: "Haha, you want to see what changes will happen when you fully control your Qi and blood, so that you can set a goal for yourself!
Row!
I'll show you how, but just because the flowers are in full bloom doesn't mean you've passed the level!"
It is worthy of being a super old silver coin, and it actually blocked the loophole right from the start.
Only then did Zhang Haoran realize that the other party had only stipulated that the flower must bloom before teaching it the method of changing its qi and blood quality, but did not say who would use the qi and blood to water it. This was indeed a loophole.
He shook his head and laughed, "Haha! You think too much! How could I have such an idea of taking advantage of a loophole?
I am a swordsman. I would rather take it by the straight path than seek it by the crooked one!
I like to confront problems head-on and use my sword to solve all problems. I hate those crooked and unorthodox things the most."
As soon as he finished speaking, he summoned the Blood Shadow Sword and slashed twice in the air, leaving two intersecting black marks.
"Why bother thinking when a problem can be solved with force?"
This was still a deterrent. He had no intention of playing tricks with these old silver coins. That would be a suicidal act. With the shrewdness of the Human Emperor, he would never let him find any loopholes.
"This emperor likes pure warriors like you, come with me!"
The Human Emperor was indeed shocked by his move. He came to the center of the flowerbed, pointed at one of the flowers and said, "I will show you how to water it. Watch carefully."
The flower is a pale gold color, about to bloom, and looks no different from the surrounding flowers.
However, Zhang Haoran doesn't think so.
If all the flowers are the same, why does the other party have to water the flower in the middle of the flowerbed? Can't he just pick any other one?
He now distrusted this clone very much, so he couldn't let him leave. These thoughts flashed through his mind.
He was highly focused and absolutely could not miss any details.
The Human Emperor looked very calm. He stretched out a finger, and the Qi and blood condensed on his fingertip with very weak fluctuations. Zhang Haoran immediately determined that this was a Qi and blood blockage.
The next moment, the blood and energy at the Human Emperor's fingertips turned into a drop of dew, and his aura was completely restrained.
It was like a drop of real dew falling on a flower, and the flower, nourished by the qi and blood, slowly opened its originally closed petals.
This is just the beginning!
Tick tock!
Another drop of dew fell on the petals, still only a card of blood and energy, followed by a third drop, a fourth drop...
"Damn! There really is something wrong! These old silver coins are too insidious! Traps are everywhere, and if you're not careful, you'll be tricked to death by them."
After careful observation, he discovered many problems. Not only did he have to split out a card of qi and blood, but he also had to be able to transform the qi and blood into a shape.
Moreover, the interval between each drop of dew is the same, which may also be a hidden rule.
If he hadn't watched the Human Emperor demonstrate it himself, he really wouldn't have known that there were so many tricks involved. Without knowing these rules, he would have failed 90% of the time.
Tick tock!
After the fifth drop of dew fell, the pale golden flower was shrouded in a red halo, and the outermost petals were fully opened, and even the golden stamens could be seen.
At this time, the dripping speed increased a bit.
As drops of blood and qi were absorbed, more petals opened. When the Human Emperor dropped the tenth drop of blood and qi, the flower was in full bloom.
After doing all this, the Human Emperor turned around and said with a smile: "Did you see it clearly? If you don't see it clearly, I can demonstrate it a few more times."
In the short time he was speaking, the flower that had just bloomed withered in an instant and turned into starlight and dissipated.
Zhang Haoran was shocked!
"Failed?" "No!"
"Success!"
The Human Emperor said calmly, "As long as all the petals open, it will be considered a success. Beautiful things are always so short-lived, and the phrase ephemeral blooming is exactly like this."
Zhang Haoran felt a chill in his heart when he heard this. "Damn, these old silver coins are too insidious!"
If he doesn't understand the inside story, when he encounters this situation, he will definitely think that he has failed, and then try other methods. Of course, he will not succeed. When the number of failures accumulates to a certain level, he will be driven away by the other party.
No wonder the Human Emperor was about to leave just now. Here, it doesn't mean that you can pass the level if you succeed once. You must demonstrate it in front of the other party and get their approval.
How insidious!
A flash of light and shadow passed by, and a light golden flower appeared in the same place. It was no different from the previous one, except that it had returned to a bud state.
This seems to be telling him that it doesn't matter if he fails, these flowers can be reborn.
Zhang Haoran put away the gleam in his eyes, and without hesitation, he nodded and said, "Then I'll trouble you, Senior.
You'd better demonstrate it a few more times, I'm getting the hang of it now."
The corner of the Human Emperor's mouth twitched.
I thought to myself, "This kid really doesn't know what politeness is!
Improving your control over your Qi and blood requires constant practice, and you have no idea how to do it.
I was just being polite, how dare you ask me to demonstrate a few more times?"
However, since he had already said it, he couldn't go back on his word. Besides, it wouldn't be a big deal to demonstrate a few more times. He didn't believe that the other party would be able to improve his control over his qi and blood just by watching him a few times.
Even some emperors cannot achieve 100% control over their qi and blood.
There was another reason why the Human Emperor agreed. Ever since arriving in the backyard, Zhang Haoran had given him a dangerous feeling, especially after he demonstrated it once.
The tone had lost its previous respectfulness, and it was even impossible to sense whether the words were true or false, which showed that the other party had closed his sea of consciousness.
The Human Emperor’s perception was correct. Zhang Haoran was indeed not going to pretend anymore. The two of them were originally enemies, and he was not very good at acting. It was too tiring to keep pretending like this.
More importantly, he is no longer afraid of the other party turning against him.
Zhang Haoran spent value points to have Wanjielou record all of the actions the Human Emperor had just taken, including how he condensed his Qi and blood, how his Qi and blood were different, and how it circulated within his body...
Even if he were to turn against her now, he could still infer the method of changing the nature of his Qi and blood through the information scanned by the Wanjie Building.
Of course, that would require a huge amount of value points. It would be too difficult to analyze the opponent's skills using such a small amount of information. It would probably cost him most of his previous gains.
This is the last resort, don't use it if you can.
It’s best to learn the authentic ones.
Since he was confident that he could learn the method of transforming the nature of Qi and blood, he would certainly not be too respectful to an enemy's clone.
The Human Emperor demonstrated it again, using the same technique as last time, which made Zhang Haoran feel relieved. If the needs of each flower were different, he would have no choice but to get angry.
Come to think of it, although the Human Emperor can modify some rules, he cannot go too far. He must always give people a chance to pass.
After watching the Human Emperor demonstrate twice more and making the flowers bloom each time, he felt more confident.
To be on the safe side, he even asked Wanjielou to help analyze it to see if there were any rules that he had not discovered.
The result is quite speechless.
In fact, the speed requirement is not that strict. As long as the interval does not exceed two seconds, there is no problem. This is entirely a psychological warfare.
It is difficult to be as calm as the Human Emperor when performing this operation for the first time. If you also try to imitate the opponent's speed, it will be more likely to make mistakes.
The tricks of these old silver coins are too deep!
Fortunately, Wanjielou helped to analyze the situation, otherwise he would have been fooled.
When the Human Emperor came to another flower, gathering his energy and blood, and dewdrops were already dripping.
Zhang Haoran suddenly took a step forward, reached out to catch the drop of blood, and put it away calmly. With this drop of blood, he could analyze more information.
He met the Human Emperor's puzzled gaze and said with a smile, "Haha! Seeing you demonstrate so many times, I'm itching to try my skills. Let me try this time!"
If there is anything I do wrong, you must point it out."
A look of understanding flashed across the Human Emperor's eyes. He was afraid that he would tamper with the flower. He was really cautious.
The other party was so cautious of me, it seemed that their relationship with me was not very good, perhaps even an enemy. Otherwise, they wouldn't be so defensive against me.
Then his previous respectfulness was just an act, no wonder I could sense his emotions so easily.
Now that he has revealed his true identity, he is certain that he will be able to learn the skills after meeting the conditions.
Still too young!
I don't understand the evil of human nature at all.
Learning the exercises doesn't mean you can achieve a qualitative change in your Qi and blood. I'm going to trick you and make sure you won't be able to utter a word of complaint.
A flash of contempt flashed across the Human Emperor's eyes, but he remained calm on the surface and said, "Haha! It's okay to give it a try. It doesn't matter if you fail. Just practice a few more times and you'll be fine!"
If you want to improve your control over your Qi and Blood, you must practice repeatedly and don’t be afraid of failure.”
Zhang Haoran nodded, walked over to the blue flower, and, imitating the Human Emperor, stretched out his fingers, allowing a stream of Qi and blood to condense into dewdrops at his fingertips...
In the battle with Emperor Tian, he learned tens of millions of combinations of Qi and blood, and was no stranger to the transformation of Qi and blood. Moreover, he directly broke through to the initial stage of the Earth Sword Realm, and was not inferior to the Human Emperor in terms of Qi and blood control.
Maybe it was because he had just watched the Human Emperor’s demonstration and was full of inspiration, or maybe it was because he was just too lucky, he succeeded on his first try.
Under his full control, a drop of blood turned into dew and dripped onto the petals. After absorbing this drop of blood, the blue petals began to slowly bloom.
The success on the first attempt gave Zhang Haoran a boost of confidence. He immediately began to condense the second drop of dew, trying to achieve the same speed as the opponent.
However, the Qi and blood were somewhat unstable this time. After all, it had only been a short time since he had achieved 100% control. It was already very difficult to separate a card of Qi and blood, not to mention forming it into dewdrops. Some mistakes were inevitable.
If such unstable qi and blood drip onto flowers, it will definitely cause damage.
Looking at the blood dripping, a smile appeared on the corner of the Human Emperor's mouth. This flower was still relatively good. Other flowers were more sensitive and would wither immediately if there was even the slightest mistake.
You have no chance!
However, the next moment, his smile froze on his face.
Just when that drop of blood was one foot away from the flower...
"Zheng!"
A flash of sword light passed by, destroying the dewdrop.
