A Loyal Dog Wants to Eat His Lord [Xiu Xian]

Chapter 8 Failure to Serve the Master

Runes are special characters invented by rune masters. They are special characters drawn with soul power as the pen and animal blood as the ink.

As far as Lin Xi knows, there are more than 800 runes summed up so far. These runes each have their own functions, and the difficulty of portraying them varies, as well as their functions.

The rune that Lin Xi drew just now is called Hidden Talisman. It mainly uses five kinds of invisibility runes. If the drawing is successful, it will be a mid-level heavenly rune.

The higher the level of the runemaster, the more arbitrary the way the runes are drawn.According to legend, the sixth-level rune master used the void as paper, and when he sprinkled blood, it became a rune.

Lin Xi has always felt that runes carry the will of heaven and earth and have great lethality, but he never thought that one day the spirit beast he raised would tell him that runes could be devoured.

"Can you really devour runes?"

"Of course!" Xiaobai was very proud of his abilities.

Lin Xi saw that Xiaobai didn't seem to be lying. He hesitated for a moment, and took out a mid-level golden knife rune from his storage ring: "Then let me test you." Lin Xi retreated to the bedside , urged the rune with soul power, and threw it towards Xiaobai.

Xiaobai didn't want to lose face in front of Lin Xi, so he rushed towards the rune very seriously.

Lin Xi thought that Xiaobai would use martial arts or something, but he didn't expect Xiaobai to open his mouth directly and bite the rune roughly.

Runes are divided into grades, the lower ones are earth-rank runes, and the higher ones are sky-rank runes. Each rune is divided into low-grade, middle-grade, and high-grade runes from low to high.

The mid-level golden knife talisman can emit twenty golden knives when used, but when it comes to Xiao Bai's mouth, the golden knives don't come out at all, there is only a "pop" sound, and then there is no more.

Lin Xi's nerves were tense, and he was worried that Xiao Bai would not be able to deal with the runes, but he did not expect such an ending.

Xiaobai spit out the broken talisman in one gulp, and raised his neck proudly, not to mention how smug it was.

Lin Xi was both surprised and excited, surprised that Xiaobai still had the ability to devour runes, and excited that the slave mark on him might be swallowed by Xiaobai.

Lin Xi hurriedly asked: "How did you do it just now?"

"I don't know, I was born with it." Xiaobai scratched his head with his right paw, not quite clear about his own abilities.

"Then you..." Lin Xi suddenly thought of the scene where Xiaobai broke the restriction on the storage spirit weapon, and asked, "Did you also let out a breath when you bit the rune?"

Xiaobai nodded happily: "Yes, yes, when I bit the rune, a breath gushed out of my stomach and wrapped the rune." As he said, Xiaobai also showed his white belly physically .

Lin Xi finally solved a doubt in his heart. When he saw Xiaobai spit out a mouthful of turbid air, and then the restriction on the storage spirit weapon was broken, he felt strange. He didn't expect it to be related to Xiaobai's devouring ability.

"Then how did you cultivate the devouring gas that you spit out?" The devouring gas is not simple at first glance, and Xiaobai can use it not long after he was born. Lin Xi is curious about how it is formed.

"I don't know." Xiaobai shook his head in distress.

"It's okay, maybe this is one of your talents." Lin Xi comforted.

Some high-level spirit beasts have talent inheritance, Xiaobai has extraordinary background, maybe the devouring ability is his talent.

This made Lin Xi very happy. Innate abilities are more profound than soul skills and martial skills, and are even directly linked to higher levels of cultivation.The reason why some races are enduring is because of their talents. These talents can help them improve their cultivation and make it easier to ascend to the upper realm.

"Little Bai, what is the highest level of rune you can devour now?"

Xiaobai shook his head: "I don't know either."

Lin Xi hesitated for a moment, seeing Xiao Bai's innocent appearance, he really doubted whether Xiao Bai could swallow the slave mark on him.However, it is better to have hope than to have no hope. Originally, there was little hope for unlocking the rune. Xiaobai's talent opened a window for him to regain freedom, and he did not want to give up this opportunity.

Lin Xi opened his sleeves and exposed the black spot on his wrist: "This black spot is a kind of rune, can you devour it?" There was some vague expectation in Lin Xi's tone, and there was also something in his originally indifferent eyes. with some kind of light.

Xiao Bai leaned over and sniffed Lin Xi's wrist with his nose. The first thing he smelled was the faint scent of spiritual leaves on Lin Xi's body. This was a smell he liked so much that he even wanted to stick out his tongue and lick Lin Xi's wrist.However, his cultivation base has improved now, and his perception has further improved. Such a short distance has allowed him to discover the hidden power coming from the black spot.

"What is this? I don't think it's a good thing." Xiao Bai frowned and asked Lin Xi quickly.

"It's really not a good thing," Lin Xi laughed at himself. "It's a slave seal, a rune that controls people. It will spread branches and leaves in the monk's body until it spreads all over the body, completely controlling the monk's lifeline." Lin Xi It has been more than a year since he was planted with the slave mark, and the rhizomes from the slave mark have spread all over his internal organs, and are now spreading to his head.

"No wonder I hate it, so it is so hateful, Xixi, I must help you devour this rune!" Xiao Bai clenched his paw and said very firmly.

"Are you sure?" Lin Xi asked.

Xiaobai hesitated, and shook his head: "Xixi, I can't read the rune, but I will help you destroy it."

Lin Xi knew that the slave mark was difficult to remove, and if he was not careful, it would cause the slave mark to backfire, but he was willing to take the risk.

So Lin Xi sat cross-legged on the ground, stretched out his arms, and said, "Then you come."

Looking at Lin Xi's fair arm, Xiao Bai felt that the black spots on his wrists were an eyesore, and he secretly swore in his heart that he must swallow the black spots.

Xiaobai solemnly sat across from Linxi, lowered his head and let out a swallowing breath, wrapping the black slave mark.Then, according to the method of dealing with the prohibition of storage spiritual weapons, he opened his mouth and sucked it, trying to absorb the slave mark.

However, as soon as he moved his mouth, Lin Xi cried out in pain.

Lin Xi's voice was very low, but the violent convulsions all over his body showed his pain at the moment.

Xiao Bai immediately stopped swallowing, stretched out his claws, and caught Lin Xi who fell to the ground.

Lin Xi's skin was instantly covered with black lines, and these lines were like a poisonous net, entwining him tightly.This time, there were more roots of Nu Yin, and even Lin Xi's face had black lines.

In this short period of time, Lin Xi was sweating all over, as if he was picked up from the water.He clenched his fists tightly, afraid to reveal his fragile voice again.

"Xixi, I'm sorry, it's all my fault." Xiaobai said anxiously, and stuck out his tongue to lick the sweat on Linxi's face.

Lin Xi didn't intend to stop Xiaobai's actions. He didn't expect the backlash of the slave seal to be so strong, and his heart sank to the bottom of the valley. If Xiaobai's talent devouring can't remove the slave seal, then what should he do?

In a short period of time, it is impossible for him to achieve Zhao Zhen's attainment in Rune Yiyi. Maybe his father has a way, but he doesn't want to go home at all.

"Xixi..." Xiaobai hugged Lin Xi, wishing he could suffer instead of Lin Xi. He felt that he was useless and could not help Lin Xi solve his problems.

Lin Xi's face was pale, and the sweat kept flowing down. This kind of severe pain piercing his mind lasted for more than half an hour before it gradually subsided.If it were someone else, he might have passed out, but Lin Xi gritted his teeth and persisted, and only relaxed and fell asleep after the severe pain subsided.

He felt tired, never so tired.

Xiao Bai lay beside Lin Xi, with his tail just hanging on Lin Xi's waist.Worried that Lin Xi would catch a cold, his body pressed against Lin Xi's back tightly.

Lin Xi didn't wake up until noon the next day. His head hurt, as if he had a hangover.The black line extending from the slave print has long since disappeared, but the black spot on his wrist told Lin Xi of yesterday's pain.

Xiao Bai beside him, like a stove, made Lin Xi move uncomfortably, and then sat up.

Xiaobai just woke up from the dream, shook his head, and exclaimed in surprise: "Xixi, you woke up, how are you doing now? It's all my fault, I'm the one who caused you..."

Lin Xi touched Xiaobai's head: "It's not your fault." Lin Xi knew that he was too anxious. Xiaobai had just condensed his alchemy, and he didn't understand many things, and the slave seal was very powerful. , he shouldn't be in a hurry to let Xiaobai devour runes for him.

This time the slave mark backfired, making Lin Xi clearly feel his own insignificance, and he needs to work harder to cultivate.

Afterwards, Lin Xi resumed his usual routine, practicing soul skills at night and conducting actual combat during the day. He felt that his cultivation was close to the peak of alchemy.

At the same time, Lin Xi continued to study runes, hoping to improve his attainments in runes.

However, Xiao Bai was a little abnormal. Ever since he saw Lin Xi being attacked by the slave seal, he felt that it was all his fault, so he began to calm down and practice hard.

After Xiaobai became familiar with the power of the Condensation Stage, the claw shadow he used was also much more powerful than before.

After Xiaobai learned to look inside his dantian, he was surprised to find that there were runes in his dantian.

The rune can be said to be a very delicate rune seal, made up of many small runes superimposed, its complexity is far from comparable to the slave seal on Lin Xi's wrist.

Xiaobai could barely describe the four or five rune patterns in the seal. Through the description, Lin Xi roughly guessed that the rune at Xiaobai's dantian was the seal.
