Chapter 76: The Talisman God of Resentment digs a hole for himself? [Space Slash] potential?
Speaking of which...

In fact, it has been more than 20 days since I was able to concentrate on self-discipline and gain experience.

Although the experience was very rewarding.

But Xu Ran still likes the feeling of being down-to-earth and making progress every day.

A faint smile appeared on Xu Ran's face: "If I work hard for two hundred days, I can achieve the ultimate success of Super Explosive Slash and the Faith Talisman."

"With the Faith Talisman that has reached the Great Progress, I probably won't be so passive when facing the hidden Talisman Resentful God."

Xu Ran smiled, with a bright light in his eyes.

He could clearly sense one fact... which was that the third edition of the giant stone talisman, compared to the strange second edition, had a hundred times less polluting aura... becoming more concealed and even harder to detect...

This is an incomparable advantage, and it can even be said that the Talisman God of Resentment made a brilliant move!!!
If nothing unexpected happens, the next improved version of the talisman will be very effective. It can kill more people silently and obtain more sacrifices, thereby helping the talisman resentful god to improve its strength more quietly.

but!but!
Even a skilled hand may turn into a mediocre one...

The improved talismans have less and less pollution, isn’t this a kind of simplification?
Xu Ran couldn't understand the second version of the strange talisman, but he had a vague understanding of the third version. This wasn't even the third level [Essential for Sudden Enlightenment].

He began to have a vague perception.

If he reached the third sequence, Xu Ran might be able to decipher the methods of the talismanic god of resentment.

Perhaps, in just 200 days, the progress of the [Faith Talisman] would reach perfection, and he would be able to decipher it...

Once the deciphering is complete, the Talisman Resentful God's advantage will be gone...

and so……

The talisman god of resentment is gradually simplifying its strange talismans, which is actually digging a hole for itself.

"It must be very confident, confident that humans cannot decipher its methods, but I am the only exception and variable."

Yes.

The talismanic resentful god is hiding in the dark.

But isn't Xu Ran's ability to secretly plot against the talisman and the resentful god?
The talisman-revenging god would never have dreamed that there was an eight-year-old child secretly working hard to progress, and thus could possess divine skills...

"Give it a little self-discipline shock then."

Xu Ran smiled faintly, with a stern smile.

Through repeated attempts, he had already regarded the Talisman and the God of Resentment as consumables for refining the [Origin of Divinity].

Ye Ping was surprised: "What are you laughing at?"

"I thought of something happy."

Ye Ping was about to speak when the special car stopped at the foot of Qiyun Mountain.

"Sir, we've arrived at our destination."

Xu Ran jumped out of the car and waved goodbye to Uncle Ye: "Goodbye, Uncle Ye, go and do your thing!"

Ye Ping rolled down the window and said, "Be careful. I'll go back and analyze other accidents. If there are any altars left, tear them down."

Xu Ran made an OK gesture, turned and entered the park, and soon disappeared at the foot of Qiyun Mountain.

Ye Ping took out his cell phone and told the director the news that Xu Ran had returned to the park.

I waited for a while in the park.

After confirming that nothing happened.

Then he hummed a little tune and asked the driver to turn around and rush back to the General Affairs Department.

……

the other side.

Demigod Kindergarten.

Xu Ran saw the headmaster coming to greet him halfway up the mountain.

The headmaster was suspended in mid-air, his hands behind his back, his face flushed as if he was reading the Spring and Autumn Annals every day.

"Headmaster, you seem a little happier recently."

The headmaster laughed heartily. "Of course I have. I've already asked my secretary to write a winning speech for me."

Xu Ran: “…”

Walk a six alone.

The headmaster landed beside Xu Ran and patted him on the shoulder with satisfaction: "I didn't expect you to grow so tall all of a sudden. Almost 1.7 meters, right?"

Xu Ran: "1.66 meters."

The headmaster said: "It happened so fast, in the blink of an eye."

"Thanks to the food the headmaster prepared for us. It's all fat snow rhino beef from a Rank 7 crystal beast. Everyone who comes here will grow very fast. Hu Niu, Zhu Yuheng, and the others are already 1.6 meters tall. If we hadn't stopped growing for a while before we turned eight, we would have been even taller."

Xu Ran lifted the director's flowery sedan chair, commonly known as flattery. Elderly people, as it were, needed emotional value.

as predicted.

The headmaster smiled even more brightly.

"Hahahahahaha... brat!"

"Are you going to watch the fight between Little Liuli and Little Yuheng?"

Xu Ran nodded: "Yes. I have to go and take a look."

The headmaster rubbed Xu Ran's head, and suddenly his old face was full of affection: "Thank you, for thinking of such a good idea to help Xiao Yuheng..."

Xu Ran was embarrassed: "Xiao Yuheng will be my team member in the future. As my team member, of course I have to train him well."

The headmaster laughed.

"Alright, go watch the fight between Xiao Yuheng and Xiao Liuli! You're half a mentor, teach them more."

Xu Ran: “Okay.”

As soon as he finished speaking, he unleashed Three Thousand Thunders, transformed into a gust of wind and lightning, and headed straight for the Colosseum.

Soon.

Over the Colosseum.

Xu Ran looked around.

The battle is over.

Zhu Yuheng and Hu Niu sat in a row on the stands, half leaning back to rest. The balcony cast a shadow on them, but white steam was still rising from their bodies.

Hu Niu's cheeks were as red as a small apple, while Zhu Yuheng was sweating profusely, with strands of hair sticking to his smooth forehead.

They were very tired, their arms were shaking, and it was obvious that the battle just now was quite intense.

"call out--"

"call out--"

"call out--"

The guards were fanning them.

Hu Niu suddenly sighed, "If only I could have a tub of ice cream."

"How happy I would be if I could enter and exit the park freely like Brother Xiaoran!"

"I really want to grow up quickly. When I grow up, I will eat 10 pieces of cake every morning and a bucket of ice cream at noon..."

Ice cream seemed to appear in Hu Niu's golden eyes.

Zhu Yuheng wanted to say something weakly, but stopped himself.

Hu Niu rolled her eyes and said, "Sister Yuheng, how about you ask Aunt Zhu to buy some ice cream and bring some back for me every day?"

Zhu Yuheng shook his head weakly: "No, my mother will definitely tell Aunt Chen about it. If you do anything bad, it will be known immediately."

Hu Niu shrugged her head.

"Oh! All right! Let's not talk about the cake today!"

Hu Niu changed the subject.

If she didn't change the subject, she would start to suffer.

"Speaking of which... Brother Xiao Ran's Myriad Tribulation Flames are truly formidable! If I could devour a lot of them, I could defeat all enemies with just my fists."

Hu Niu's greed for the Wanjie Flame is exactly the same as her greed for the cake.

Zhu Yuheng was sipping an energy drink.

Hearing the words "Ten Thousand Tribulations Flame", he subconsciously shuddered: "Ten Thousand Tribulations Flame, it's very, very dangerous! You can't do anything reckless, you need Xiao Ran's permission."

She was not exaggerating. The danger level was extremely high, and it could be said that there was no chance of survival.

Hu Niu's golden eyes blinked, "I know it's very dangerous. If it weren't dangerous... Brother Xiao Ran would have let me use it. Brother Xiao Ran is very good to me. As long as it's not dangerous, he's willing to teach me anything, hehe."

Just talking.

The sound of footsteps clattering.

Hearing familiar footsteps.

Hu Niu quickly turned her head, a smile flashing in her golden eyes: "Brother Xiao Ran, where have you been? You didn't even watch our fight!"

Xu Ran: "Something happened."

Hu Niu was curious: "Did they leave the park? Did they bring any ice cream?"

Xu Ran spread his hands: "No. Aunt Chen specifically told you not to eat it."

Hu Niu shrugged her head and said, "Can't I even eat one?"

Xu Ran couldn't help laughing: "There's nothing I can do."

Hu Niu was dejected for a few seconds, but soon regained her energy: "Guess who won?"

Xu Ran glanced at Hu Niu sideways: "...If you lost, how could you be so lively? You must have won."

What would happen if Hu Niu, who has a strong desire to win, lost?
She would definitely feel depressed and listless, and even if a bucket of ice cream was placed in front of her, she would have no appetite.

Hu Niu smiled, her smile lively and full of energy: "But Sister Yuheng is very, very powerful now. I can't beat her even without the small tower!!"

Xu Ran praised: "Not bad, not bad. You are not even eight years old yet. When you are eight years old, your combat effectiveness will increase several times."

Hu Niu put her hands on her hips and said, "Only 39 days left. Wait until I'm eight years old and have completed my transformation, then I'll challenge you again~"

Well, this little girl is still counting the days, and I'm afraid she feels like each day is a year.

Xu Ran shook his head and chuckled, his eyes falling on Zhu Yuheng.

Noticing Xu Ran's gaze, Zhu Yuheng looked over and quickly lowered his head.

Xu Ran also tried to comfort Zhu Yuheng: "Being able to fight Hu Niu back and forth, your improvement today can be said to be a leap forward."

Zhu Yuheng's expression was as gentle as water: "Yes, thank you..."

"That's amazing! When we get to the selection competition, we can even use three drops of the Myriad Tribulations Flame."

"By the way, can you learn my Qi and blood cultivation method?"

Zhu Yuheng nodded weakly: "I have learned it. It is very, very useful."

Xu Ran suddenly realized: "Oh, it seems that I learned it during my training. Not bad, not bad, very impressive."

Seeing Xu Ran praising Zhu Yuheng again and again.

Hu Niu puffed up her cheeks, looking jealous: "Brother Xiao Ran, why didn't you praise me for being so awesome just now?"

Xu Ran smiled and patted Hu Niu's head: "Okay, okay, you are also very good."

Hu Niu smiled innocently: "Hehehe...Brother Xiao Ran, when can I use the Eternal Flame?"

Xu Ran pondered: "Not sure. Let's wait a little longer. You are in a different situation than Xiao Yuheng. You don't have her natural passive ability."

Hu Niu felt a little disappointed: "Oh...what a pity..."

Xu Ran suddenly looked serious: "What a pity! Have you learned the Space Slash?! Are you still greedy? Learn the Space Slash and then think about the Eternal Flame!"

oops.

Hu Niu shrank her neck and immediately buried her face behind Zhu Yuheng.

"Hey, sister Yuheng, you smell so good."

Zhu Yuheng: "..."

Xu Ran was helpless and glanced at the two little girls.

"Xiao Yuheng, remember to fight Huniu and the others more often and familiarize yourself with various battle situations. Remember to learn to use your ability to freeze everything at the right time. Even if you can only freeze your opponent for one tenth of a second, it can make the difference between victory and defeat." Zhu Yuheng nodded weakly: "Okay..."

Xu Ran: "Be more confident and energetic."

Zhu Yuheng sat up straight: "Okay!"

"Yes, I'm going to practice, you guys take a rest..."

After he finished speaking, Xu Ran turned around, found a place, and began to practice [Super Explosive Slash]...

Concentrate.

Swing a knife.

Concentrate.

Swing a knife.

Under the shade of the trees, Xu Ran's movements were clean and smooth, swift as a flash. He trained constantly, striving to achieve the ultimate in sword-drawing speed!

UI.

Even if the sword drawing speed is only one tenth of a second faster, it can sometimes change the situation of the battle and reverse life and death.

Hurry up!
Hurry up!
Hurry up!
Xu Ran's eyes were burning!

[You are diligently practicing Super Explosive Slash. Current progress (beginner): 2100/10000...]

It turns out.

Xu Ran has a unique talent in swordsmanship.

In just half an hour, the daily +100 points of progress were completed.

"Done. Next self-discipline project."

Xu Ran wiped off the sweat on his body and began to use the tip of the knife as a pen to carve mysterious characters on the ground, the meaning of which he couldn't even understand.

It doesn’t matter if you don’t understand it, as long as it can increase the progress of magical skills, it is enough.

He doesn't care.

I don’t care about the progress bar of god-level skills.

As long as he carves, he can increase the progress.

Faith Talisman Progress +1...

Faith Talisman Progress +1...

Advanced Comprehension Progress +1...

Advanced Comprehension Progress +1...

Time passed by minute by minute.

The progress of the Faith Talisman is increasing little by little.

what is interesting is.

There is an additional benefit to practicing the Faith Talisman, which is that Xu Ran is in the process of practicing.

I will also think about what this mysterious symbol from the bright tortoise shell means.

Although he couldn't understand it, the movements of his hands didn't affect his thinking. So he practiced while thinking, and actually achieved 100 points in advanced comprehension.

This is very comfortable.

Kill two birds with one stone!
Do more with less!
Explosive efficiency!

So happy!

Xu Ran smiled slightly. In the past, he had to rely on reading to increase the progress of [Advanced Comprehension], which took about two hours every day.

Technology has advanced now.

It only takes 1 hour to practice the fusion of Faith Talisman and Advanced Comprehension.

So happy!

It is in this kind of efficient self-discipline.

The day passed quickly.

And every day that followed, Xu Ran spent his time in such bitterness.

As you can see, his name is Xu Ran, he is eight years old, and lives in Genius Villa 001, on the east slope of Qiyun Mountain Demigod Kindergarten.

He doesn't have a girlfriend. He attends a demigod kindergarten and is a mentor to super geniuses. He has to discipline himself to stay indoors until nine o'clock every night.

He has no particular preference for snacks, and only tastes desserts lightly. He goes to bed at 10 o'clock in the evening and gets eight hours of sleep every day. Before going to bed, he must drink a glass of warm milk, then "magnetically" stick to the ceiling, fall asleep instantly, and sleep through the night, never leaving fatigue and stress until the next day.

Every time he had a physical examination, the doctor said he was normal...

……

Time flies, and in a flash, 39 days have passed, and the 2980th day of Xu Ran’s boyhood has arrived!
For Xu Ran, this day was ordinary and nothing special happened.

but.

This day is very special for someone.

early morning.

As usual, Xu Ran got up early, washed up, and casually glanced at his system panel.

Qi and health value: 3 points...

Spirit value: 3232 points...

Super Explosive Slash Progress (Beginner): 6000/10000...

Belief Talisman Progress (Beginner): 6000/10000...

Advanced Comprehension Progress: 68000/10...

"Hmm! Significant progress. The Faith Talisman only needs forty days to reach minor success. The high level of comprehension is only 320 days away from mastering sudden enlightenment..."

“It feels so good to be making progress every day.”

Xu Ran came to the gate of the yard.

The osmanthus flowers my mother planted in the garden have already bloomed, and the fragrance is overwhelming.

"Let's go out for dinner."

Xu Ran’s mood recently has been as good as the clear sky above his head, clean and pure.

But just went out.

Xu Ran heard a loud shout coming from a distance...

"Xiao-Ran-Brother!"

The sound arrives first.

Then an excited figure came from far away and quickly grew larger. It was Hu Niu who was performing the Three Thousand Thunders and rushed towards Xu Ran in a rage.

About ten meters in front of Xu Ran, Hu Niu started braking, waving her hands and feet until she reached Xu Ran.

The soles of my shoes are almost burning...

Xu Ran couldn't help laughing: "Three Thousand Thunders is fun, right?"

Huniu: "It's fun~ It's very fast~"

"But none of this matters! Brother Xiao Ran, the most important thing today is—I'm eight years old!"

"Hurry up and teach me how to cultivate my Qi and blood! Teach me now!"

She grabbed Xu Ran's arm and swung it back and forth as if the seal had expired.

Xu Ran was helpless: "The director asked you to come to me?"

Hu Niu nodded. "Yes! I went to knock on the principal's door, but he wasn't awake yet. He asked me to come find you. After all, you created the cultivation method, and you're such a good lecturer."

Hu Niu blinked her golden eyes and acted cute and coquettish. Not to mention, her oval face with a little baby fat made her look extremely adorable when she acted coquettish.

Xu Ran pinched Hu Niu's face and said, "Okay, okay, okay. I'll teach you."

"Come with me. I have engraved my demigod cultivation method on a tortoise shell. You must read the shell first, and then I will explain it to you again. You must understand it thoroughly and engrave it completely on a blank tortoise shell before you can attempt to practice it!!"

Hu Niu smiled and said, "Okay, okay. I'll listen to Xiao Ran's brother! Let's go! Let's go!"

She pulled Xu Ran and trotted towards the treasure house, extremely anxious and obviously unable to hold it back any longer.

Xu Ran couldn't help laughing: "You are too impatient..."

Hu Niu's face was filled with a strong desire to win. "That's right. I'm the only one in our class who's not even eight years old."

"I'm the only one whose HP is still at over 7100. Sister Bian Yue and Brother Feng Yan both have HP values ​​over ."

"Also, I heard from others that the super talents in the selection competition are two years older than me, or even two and a half years older!!"

Hu Niu folded her fingers. "If you practice one year longer than me, you'll be ahead by about 1 Qi and Blood points. If you practice two years longer than me, you'll be ahead by 4 Qi and Blood points... Even though I'm very powerful, the huge gap in Qi and Blood points is still a headache."

"Besides, I can't learn your swordsmanship..."

Xu Ran couldn't help laughing. This little girl actually started studying the opponents of the God-Slaying Team?
She wants to win so badly!
Being two and a half years younger but still so competitive is simply...perfectly in line with his character.

Xu Ran touched Hu Niu's head and said, "It doesn't matter if you can't learn my swordsmanship. Have you mastered the Space Slash? It seems like it's been over a month now, right? There should be some progress, right? Don't tell me you haven't made any progress at all!"

"Yes, yes!"

"How come there's no progress?"

“I tried very hard!”

Hu Niu's eyes suddenly brightened, and her expression was slightly excited: "I found a little trick last night, but... it can only cut leaves."

"Oh?"

Xu Ran raised his eyebrows and pointed to a camphor tree not far away: "Come, show it to me."

"Alright, watch out! Level 1 Space Slash!"

While talking.

Hu Niu raised her little head and walked to a position ten meters away from the camphor tree.

Golden ripples slowly spread out, covering the surroundings.

Subsequently.

Hu Niu put her fingers together to form a knife and swung it forward gently.

Although they were ten meters apart, several leaves were cut in half at the same moment, and several leaves with neat cuts fell to the ground.

"Look, that's what it looks like..."

Xu Ran: “…”

Ok……

how to say.

The slash from a distance had a bit of the flavor of a super explosive slash, but it was obviously not as strange, domineering, and powerful as the [Super Explosive Slash].

On the other hand, the current Space Slash not only takes time to build up, but also has pitifully small lethality.

Xu Ran almost laughed out loud.

But he was a professional and had received professional training, so he didn't say anything.

Actually it’s pretty good!
Even if the damage is a little less.

But at least it verifies the correctness of Xu Ran’s theory!!!
The principle of [Space Slash] is practical!

As long as you slowly explore and practice diligently, as your strength increases, the lethality of [Space Slash] will definitely become stronger and stronger.

Even in the end, it was within the space controlled by Hu Niu.

Her [Space Slash] can cut through everything.

Xu Ran nodded slightly. "Okay, okay. You're truly gifted. You've actually figured it out. Genius! This [Space Slash] will definitely have unlimited potential."

Hu Niu's cheeks flushed slightly, and she felt hot with shame. "It was Brother Xiao Ran who came up with this magical skill! It's a pity that I didn't use it to its full potential! But I have a feeling that the [Space Slash] in the future will be able to cut through everything!"

"I will never let Brother Xiaoran's creation down!"

Hu Niu held her head high and chest puffed out, her gaze blazing, her golden eyes full of determination.

Xu Ran was surprised: "Is it possible for [Space Slash] to cut through everything? Is it that powerful?"
