Emperor of Nine Suns

As he spoke, the boy pointed with one finger at a painting on the wall of the bamboo house where he hibernated.

Everyone nodded. That painting was the only calligraphy and painting in the entire bamboo building. It was written by an unknown person. It showed a goshawk fighting hard in the sky.

This painting is extremely skillful, and the goshawk's iron wings, steel feathers, silver claws and golden hooks are all clearly shown.

When people look at it, they feel an extremely fierce aura rushing towards them. Everyone feels a slight pain in their eyes when they look at this picture, as if the eagle will burst out of the paper in the next second. .

"The elder said it. Refining medicinal talismans is too complicated, so if you want to learn this, talent is very important. Even if students without talent come to learn, it is a waste of time. And this piece of Jiuxuan black wood in front of you is The most important tool to test whether you have the talent to refine medicine."

The boy cleared his throat and rolled up his sleeves solemnly.

"Your task now is to carve the Nine Mysterious Black Wood in front of you into the shape of a goshawk. Ultimately, your talent for medicinal talismans will be inferred based on your carved works. After everyone has finished carving, The elders will come out to make a decision."

With that said, the boy took out a dozen sharp spiritual carving knives from upstairs and handed them to everyone in turn, and nodded to everyone: "Let's get started."

"This thing is Jiu Xuan Black Wood? I feel guilty now..." Someone sighed lowly. The Nine-Xuan Black Wood is naturally extremely dense and tough. Even if it is cut with a weapon made of hundreds of refined steel, it can be cut continuously. It is one of the hardest spiritual trees that can be collected in the Lingquan Forest.

If you want to carve on this kind of wood, even with the help of a sharp spiritual carving knife, the monk must have extremely deep spiritual power to be able to use the knife.

Among the people, except for Chu Chen, who had just entered the realm of spiritual spring, the others had more or less reached the realm of "peak human spring" or even "earth spring".

Generally speaking, people with this level of cultivation can barely carve the Nine Mysterious Black Woods.

However, Chu Chen, who had just reached the "Second Level of Human Spring" shortly after entering the spiritual spring realm, was apparently the one with the lowest cultivation level. Therefore, several people glanced at Chu Chen at the first moment, and they all showed gloating expressions.

"Haha, I didn't expect that this elder would be so perverted and actually let us carve something like Nine-Xuan Black Wood... But with the kid who has just entered the spiritual spring realm as the bottom, even if it's embarrassing, he should be the first to be embarrassed."

"Yeah, we don't have to worry with that kid at the bottom.

This way, even in front of His Highness the Crown Prince, we won't look so useless... If His Highness the Crown Prince values ​​us this time and accepts us as his subordinates, we will really rise to the top. "

"Well, everyone should work harder this time and behave well in front of His Royal Highness..."

…

With the sensitivity of Chu Chen's spiritual sense, he could clearly feel even a mosquito twitching its toes, let alone the whispers of several people.

But with his temperament, he had no time to pay attention to such villains who only dared to whisper behind their backs, so he picked up the Nine-Xuan Black Wood in front of him and looked at it carefully.

Jiuxuan Black Wood is known as one of the hardest spiritual trees, so its internal structure is very different from ordinary trees.

Generally, the internal grain of wood is striped, and due to differences in material, density, and water absorption, it presents a layered structure of varying density.

Jiuxuan Black Wood is completely black, and the internal wood texture is not stripes, but has a structure similar to fish scales, and this fish scale pattern is particularly fine. When you touch it with your hand, you can feel a smooth and warm touch, like fine iron.

In ancient times, a sage once said: "The so-called carving is to remove the excess corners."

Therefore, the most important thing in carving is to follow the texture of the wood. The special fish scale pattern of Jiuxuan Black Wood is countless times more complicated than the ordinary striped pattern, which also determines that its carving difficulty is far beyond the Ordinary materials, because there is no way to straighten out the texture.

Therefore, even with the strength of Chu Chen's spiritual sense, the moment he picked up the Nine-Xuan Black Wood, he felt like he had no place to cut, so he frowned slightly and began to look at it carefully.

On the other side, while Chu Chen was carefully looking at every inch of the Jiuxuan Black Wood, Shen Qian had already started carving.

The little fairy knew very well how hard the Jiuxuan Black Wood was, so she used all her spiritual power as soon as she came up with it. A dazzling light of spiritual power bloomed from her fingertips, and the entire spiritual carving knife became bright.

Although she was mentally prepared for the situation, Shen Qian was still a little surprised when the knife was actually executed.

This piece of dark wood was too hard. She had used all the spiritual power in her body, but she could only carve a shallow scratch on the black wood every time... It took a lot of effort to carve an eagle. Year of the Monkey and Horse Moon? ?

Seeing that Shen Qian had already begun to cut.

Huangfu Yin smiled slightly and shook his palm slightly. The vast and vigorous spiritual power wrapped around the spiritual carving knife danced like an elegant butterfly.

The outstanding disciple of Tianyuan immediately showed his extraordinary power as soon as he made a move. Everyone saw that the spiritual carving knife in the void turned into a dazzling electric light and danced horizontally, and the dark black Jiuxuan Black Wood sawdust was scattered in all directions, without any effort at all. Feeling of stagnation.

"As expected of Senior Brother Huangfu! This level of cultivation is truly breathtaking!"

Seeing the extremely gorgeous scene in front of him, the man in purple sighed slightly, with a look of reverence on his face.

Apart from anything else, just by looking at Shen Qian's effort in cutting the knife, you can tell how hard this black wood is. However, this wood, which is harder than hundreds of refined steel, actually looks like it is made of sand in Huangfuyin's hands. There is no hard feeling at all. Just this control of spiritual power is enough to be called otherworldly.

"Of course, His Highness's cultivation is arrogant to the students of the entire Medicine Palace. A mere nine black black trees are nothing!" Beside the man in purple, a man wearing a goose-yellow dress laughed softly, looking at Huangfu Yin with brilliant eyes.

"The students of Tianyuan are indeed worthy of their reputation." Li Taixin sighed softly and started to take action. After all, he is an older man, so he is very cautious.

Li Taixin was very calm in his attacks. He often had to think for a while every time he made a cut. He seemed to be correcting the position and strength of his cut at any time. He looked extremely serious.

Not far from him, Qi Fei, who had been keeping a cold face, finally started to cut.

Chu Chen originally thought that since Qi Fei had already reached the middle to late stage of Lingquan, he would be very decisive and quick when executing the sword. But what surprised him was that Qi Fei's movements were not fast. His performance was quite satisfactory and very inconspicuous.
