Charm was a special ability. Although it didn"t have much offensive power on the surface, once it enchanted an opponent, the opponent would enter a state of absent-mindedness. At this time, the opponent was like a lamb waiting to be slaughtered.This ability originated from the West, and was first created by the missionaries of Central Europe. They taught women the art of Charm, which allowed them to approach their enemies more easily. After they cast this charm, the enemies would be killed or used by them like puppets.
Lin Zi Chen didn"t expect Shang Ying Mei to use this kind of ability. Although charm magic existed, it was ancient and mysterious. There weren"t many experts who could use charm magic.
She … What kind of background was this?
Seeing that the giant bird had completely lost all of its power, Shang Yingmei finally revealed a panicked look, "Head … Head Instructor …"Upon hearing her shout, Lin Zichen also came back to his senses. He took a few steps forward, and with a palm strike, he killed the round beaked bird.
He let out a breath. "Cherry Blossom, this is too dangerous."
Shang Ying Mei lowered her head slightly, and nodded in embarra.s.sment, "I know, I... I was wrong. "
In front of Lin Zichen, Shang Yingmei seemed to have become a completely different person. From the female martial artist that he had just killed, she had turned into a timid and cowardly little girl that was afraid of being punished for her wrongdoings.
Lin Zichen helplessly shook his head, squatted down and touched Shang Ying"s pulse. "It"s not a serious injury, mainly external ones. I just need to rest for a few days. Yingmei, last time you promised that you wouldn"t come to the Seven Holy Mountains."
Shang Yingmei"s face turned red and pouted, "I... "I just wanted to train my finger power. I didn"t expect this big bird to be so powerful."
If you provoke them, it would be a type of trouble in the first place, not to mention that the round beaked bird of the Seven Saint Mountain is able to absorb Zhen Qi and grow stronger. Its body is also stronger, and if I"m not here, you will definitely die here today.
Lin Zi Chen"s tone was full of reproach, but he was not very strict. Lin Zi Chen also took into account Shang Ying"s beautiful mood. After all, she was still injured.
"I didn"t expect that either... The last time I was here, I only shot two eagles, this time … "
"But, Cherry Blossom, your fingers and wrist are very strong. Did you train in using stone attacks since you were young?" Lin Zi Chen understood in his heart that even he did not have such a strong finger attack.Shang Yingmei nodded her head, "That"s right. When I was very young, I used to practice using steel b.a.l.l.s to hit targets. Since there"s none in the academy, I used pebbles."
"Then... Where"s the Charm Spell? " Lin Zichen looked at Shang Yingmei, his gaze clearly questioning her.
"Ah?" Charm, Charm Magic? " Shang Yingmei was stunned, Lin Zi Chen"s words clearly surprised her, "What Charm Spell?"Lin Zi Chen looked at Shang Yingmei. He discovered that this girl was getting more and more mysterious. Right now, she was clearly playing dumb, but she didn"t know that she was able to use her charm? How is this possible?
"Hehe, didn"t you use your Charm on the Beak Bird just now to stop it from attacking? "Otherwise, I"m afraid you would already be in its stomach." "… … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … … Lin Zi Chen said with a relaxed smile.
"Oh, hehe, that"s not a Charm spell, it"s a type of powder I brought with me, used for self-defense." Saying that, Shang Yingmei took out a small paper bag from her waist and handed it to Lin Zichen, "Chief Instructor, take a look."Lin Zi Chen took the paper bag and opened it up to take a look. He smelled it, and sure enough, there was a type of knockout drug made from over ten different ingredients, and the effects were obvious. If it wasn"t for his strength, he would have already lost his sanity.
Soon after, Lin Zi Chen looked towards Shang Ying Mei"s side, and sure enough, there was an open paper bag on the ground, if you put it this way … Was she really using this powder to confuse the round beaked bird?Lin Zichen narrowed his eyes at Shang Yingmei, as if trying to read something from her gaze. But unfortunately, nothing came out. Shang Yingmei"s eyes were as clear as a spring, without even the slightest hint of lying.
Lin Zi Chen finally nodded his head, stood up and said: "Let"s go, don"t stay here, it"s too dangerous."
Shang Yingmei was very obedient this time, extending her hand for Lin Zichen to pull up. Lin Zichen only felt that her hand was soft and smooth, but extremely cold.
Normally speaking, a martial artist, especially a martial artist like Shang Yingmei who had been training since she was young, in addition to training with a steel ball as a target, should have somewhat rough hands that shouldn"t be so slippery. Moreover, this ice-cold feeling surprised him; it had already exceeded the limit of normal body temperature.
"Why are your hands so cold?" Lin Zi Chen said."Perhaps the summit is a little cold, just now …" I"m scared again. I"ll be fine in a moment. " Shang Yingmei retracted her hand in embarra.s.sment, a trace of bright red left on her face.
Lin Zichen didn"t take it to heart, and then he went down the mountain with Shang Yingmei, preparing to send her out.
Shang Yingmei had been very quiet along the way, following by Lin Zichen"s side like a little sheep, bowing her head in silence.
Lin Zi Chen looked at her a few times, and he couldn"t help but wonder in his heart, "This little girl is cold in front of others, but every time we are alone together, it is different. Normally, she would reveal a sunny smile, but when she makes a mistake, she would shy away from raising her head, and when she speaks gently and obediently, her personality is a little strange."Chief instructor." When they were almost out of the Seven Saint Mountain, Shang Yingmei suddenly raised her head and said.
"Hmm? "What"s wrong?"
Lin Zi Chen turned his head and looked at Shang Ying"s pretty face under the moonlight. Her eyes were like water, her cherry lips were glistening, and her appearance was as beautiful and pure as a water lotus.
"I... I want to know if I can join the Special Task Force. " After saying that, Shang Yingmei lowered her head in embarra.s.sment.
Lin Zi Chen smiled: "Ying Mei, why are you always so scared talking to me? "Come, look at me."As he said that, Lin Zi Chen placed both his hands on Shang Ying Mei"s shoulders. Shang Ying Mei also raised her head and looked at Lin Zi Chen. When their eyes met, she turned her head to the side once again.
"Hehe, let me tell you, with your strength, you"ll definitely be able to join the Special Task Force."
Shang Yingmei nodded her head, pursing her lips as if she wanted to say something but was unable to do so.
"Cherry Blossom, you … What more do you want to say? "Shang Yingmei was at a loss for a moment before replying, "I... I don"t want to join the Special Task Force, but do you mind if I stay with the Chief Instructor? "
"Ah?" Follow me? Haha, why do you say that? " Lin Zichen thought to himself, in truth, that was his plan. If the quota given by the old teacher for the special team started to be created, then Shang Yingmei would undoubtedly be a candidate.Shang Yingmei looked at the ground as she crossed her arms in front of her chest. Finally, she took a deep breath and said, "I think that I can learn more from the chief instructor. I"ve thought about it, I want to enter the martial way and learn cultivation techniques from the chief instructor.
Hearing that, Lin Zi Chen was stunned: "What? Do you think that your cultivation method can no longer be improved? "
"No, after this period of training and study, especially after that day when I saw the chief instructor"s strength, I felt that although my training method still has room for improvement, I might never be able to reach the chief instructor"s strength, so I wanted to have a higher goal."
"A higher goal?" Lin Zichen was silent for a moment, "Hehe, Cherry Blossom, what do you think of martial arts?"
"The martial way is profound, lofty, and supreme. No one knows where the peak of martial arts is, but as long as a martial artist pursues it, they will have their own realm."It was obvious that this girl had done her homework in advance, but there was actually nothing bad about that. The pursuit of martial arts had its own different ways, no matter what one studied, if one could understand these things then it would be good.
"Hehe, you"re right, but martial arts aren"t a vertical pursuit. He is a great being in this world," Lin Zi Chen smiled and patted Shang Ying"s shoulder, "But your current thoughts are already better than most people."
With that, Lin Zi Chen continued walking, and Shang Yingmei was at a loss for words. Then, she chased after him, "Chief Instructor, can I follow you?"Lin Zi Chen turned his head and laughed: "Hehe, I"m afraid I won"t be able to answer this question for now, but... I feel that nothing in this world is absolute. Maybe you can follow me or join the special forces! "
"Ah?" "Why is that!?"
Shang Yingmei"s expression was no longer shy, revealing her usual suns.h.i.+ne. Lin Zichen smiled, "Go back first, and study under Instructor Jiang Hua according to the rules. You will know when the time comes."
After sending Shang Yingmei out of the Seven Saint Mountain, Lin Zichen turned around and walked back. After all, he planned to continue cultivating here and, if possible, refine the Five Elements Symbol Array.
Along the way, he kept thinking about what had just happened, and he kept feeling that something was wrong. This merchant"s eldest daughter was indeed strange, at least she was too different from other rich girls.
Especially that bag of scented powder. Even if she hadn"t used her charm spell, why would she normally wear that kind of scented powder to protect herself? With her strength, she might not even need to use it.Moreover, the effect of this powder was extremely rare, and one would need to be at least as strong as Ning Jia to concoct this powder. The merchant spent so much money to buy this powder just to protect Shang Yingmei"s body?
When he walked back to the mountain, Lin Zi Chen did not notice that Shang Yingmei had been watching him from the entrance of the mountain. At first her gaze was gentle and clear, but soon after it became unusually calm and even carried the usual iciness.
However, there was a trace of doubt mixed within his ice-cold gaze …. And fear!
After reaching the summit, Lin Zichen started to train, since he didn"t have Shang Yingmei by his side, he quickly closed his eyes and entered a meditative state.
Time pa.s.sed second by second as Lin Zi Chen once again felt the influx of true energy into his body. After he had become a mortal, every time he trained, it seemed to become even more obvious and he could even feel the flow of true energy.
This kind of training continued for two days. Two days later, Lin Zi Chen slowly opened his eyes and felt his body strengthen a little more. He nodded his head.Remember that this book starts with a domain name:
