Chapter 105, Chapter 106: Transformation Magic Pattern (Seeking Monthly Tickets)

  In fact, making a transformation pattern is not difficult to some extent. Basically, an eighth-level or ninth-level pattern maker can complete it.

  However, there isn't a single tailor who would take it lightly, as the preciousness of the material doesn't allow for even half a mistake.

  It's like someone walking past a one-meter high wall, which is simply easy and pleasant, but if this wall is raised to a height of one thousand meters? I'm sure no one would dare try it easily.

  Apart from this, Xiao Hong also needs to consider whether or not to incorporate tattoo technology. This is absolutely a difficult decision. If he doesn't use it, it's relatively more stable and the grasp is much stronger. If he uses it, it will definitely add wings to the tiger.

  After weighing the pros and cons for over ten minutes, Xiao Hong finally decided to continue using the tattoo technique. The reason was simple: he had already gained considerable confidence in it.

  It wasn't until midnight that Xiao Hong finalized the plan, with the main direction being to spare no expense in maximizing the transformation magic pattern's effect.

  Because Xiao Hong is very clear, this is the foundation, just like building a house and laying the foundation, the foundation is laid well, the house can be built higher, money can be made later, but transformation cannot be repeated.

  After all the plans were settled, Xiao Hong fell onto the bed and started snoring loudly. After so many days of running around, he was really exhausted. Of course, in his heart, Xiao Hong still had endless expectations.

  On the one hand, becoming a Rider would give him more confidence in treating his own illness. On the other hand, there was that dark blue magic bead. Now, Xiao Hong could be certain that the dark blue magic bead could be driven by a first-level Rider, and as a permanent battle mark, what role did it play, how much combat power did it have? Xiao Hong's heart was still filled with endless expectations.

  And all of this, from Xiao Hong bringing back the variant blood scale wolf's bile safely, has become no longer distant.

  In the early morning, Xiao Hong, who had just woken up, began to prepare for the production of the transformation magic pattern. The first thing he needed to do was to process most of the materials, such as turning the purple vine stems into a powder like dust, and the same with the Bola stone.

  "My God, you bastard!"

  Just as Xiao Hong was handling some materials, Li Le's roar suddenly entered Xiao Hong's ears, and the voice was filled with anger and helplessness. Such a voice was rare for Li Le.

  Unable to help himself, Xiao Hong pushed open the bedroom door and walked out to take a look.

  Li Le, in the side room, was holding a piece of clothing with a large hole burned out, his face filled with anger as he glared at Xiao Qi Lang.

  "You damned little thing, do you know that I spent a full 50 silver coins on this limited edition clothes, and it's the only one of its kind! Look at what you've done!" Li Le said with a face full of anger to Xiao Qi Lang.

  Look again at the small wolf on the table, equally unwilling to show weakness, its fur already standing on end, and revealing half-lengthened fangs, and from time to time spitting out flames that are not much longer than a lighter flame, putting on an extremely hostile appearance, apparently it is still resentful of Li Le's words yesterday about taking its gallbladder.

  "You scoundrel, if it weren't for the fact that you're worth several thousand taels of gold, I'd have you stewed in a pot of rat soup by now." Li Le continued to rage, his furious expression tinged with a hint of desperation.

  "Li Le, calm down, you're getting angry again, and your clothes won't get any better. Besides, what can you explain to it?" Lin Zi comforted with good intentions.

  "What's going on? Why all the commotion so early in the morning?" Xiao Hong pushed open the door and asked softly.

  Just as Xiao Hong had just opened the door and come in, the little wolf that was previously showing its teeth suddenly put on a pitiful look, hanging its ears, putting its two front paws honestly on its chest, and slightly lowering its head.

  Xiao Hong walked into the room and saw Li Le grinning from ear to ear, while Xiao Qi looked pitiful like a child who had done something wrong, her expression slightly changing.

  "Li Le, you've bullied him?" Xiao Hong asked in a low voice, his eyes still fairly calm.

  He looked at Xiao Qiulang as if he had seen a relative, like a fat mouse, and jumped directly onto Xiao Hong's shoulder. His little head kept rubbing against Xiao Hong's face, making pitiful "giggles".

  Lin Zi and the others saw this scene, and their hearts suddenly skipped a beat. It was clear that they had underestimated Xiao Qi Lang's intelligence at this moment. This guy wasn't a spiritual beast at all, but rather a mischievous and sinister little kid.

  "Faced with this situation, Li Le was speechless and didn't know what to say."

  "I'm warning you, don't bully it. Besides, look at how cute this little spirit beast is, can you bear to bully it?" Xiao Hong said with a loving tone, and gently scratched the little wolf's head with his finger. At this time, the little wolf looked very comfortable, and also revealed a hint of smugness from getting its way."

  "Hong Ge, heaven and earth are just! Look at this, who's bullying who now?" Li Le said with an innocent face, spreading out his burnt clothes with a big hole for Xiao Hong to see.

  "Never mind, the ruined clothes will be charged to your account. I'll double pay you when I give out salaries and that's it. Now go prepare breakfast." Xiao Hong said as he turned around and left with Xiao Lang, while Xiao Lang took advantage of Xiao Hong's inattention to constantly stick his tongue out at Li Le, seemingly making a blatant provocation.

  "Have fun here by yourself, don't run around." After arriving at the backyard, Xiao Hong directly put down Xiao Qi Lang and returned to his bedroom to focus on organizing materials.

  As for Li Le, who had just walked out of the room, he saw Xiao Qi Lang sitting on a stone table in the center of the backyard, holding a fresh fruit that had been bitten twice, and when he saw Li Le, he didn't forget to stick out his tongue again.

  "You wait." Li Le, who was still fuming, pointed at Xiao Qi Lang and said gruffly, then began to prepare breakfast.

  After nearly twenty minutes, most of the materials had been sorted out by Xiao Hong. At this moment, Xiao Ge's hands were holding a piece of Odin stone fragment with a burnt layer on it, which he had picked up earlier. After examining it for a while, he used a stone cutting tool to remove the burnt part, and finally formed an irregularly shaped Odin stone. The purity was still not bad, and further cutting would yield another usable stone.

  However, Xiao Hong was not in a hurry for the time being. The coach had not yet become one, and the coach was still a bit early for him.

  He casually locked Odin's stone in the drawer, Xiao Hong walked out of the bedroom and came to the front hall. At this time, Little Qiu Lang was already sitting at the dinner table, holding a large piece of roasted meat in his hand, eating with big mouthfuls, without any intention of showing courtesy.

  Xiao Hong looked at the little guy's cute appearance, and just smiled slightly, then started eating on his own.

  While eating, Xiao Hong's mind kept thinking about the wording when contacting Mu Xi'er, and he felt a little shy.

  Xiao Hong suddenly remembered something else - the business card left by Han Chen from Xijin Magic Academy yesterday.

  What's wrong with him? Xiao Hong couldn't figure it out, but one thing was certain, that is, it must not be related to the incident with Chai Shuang. Firstly, Xiao Hong had disguised himself very well at that time, and secondly, when Han Chen sent over his business card, they were still in the dark cave, how could they possibly spread the news out?

  From this, Xiao Hong can determine that it is absolutely unrelated to the Dark Fusion Cave, but what is it?

  Xiao Hong didn't think much more and contacted Han Chen through the communication talisman according to the number on the business card.

  "Hello, I'm Han Chen. Who are you? What's up?" Soon, a voice came from Xiao Hong's communication tattoo, the voice of a middle-aged man.

  Xiao Hong

  Xiao Hong put down his chopsticks and responded very simply.

  "Oh, it's you, back from visiting relatives?" Han Chen said with a relaxed tone.

  "What do you want from me?" Xiao Hong asked further.

  "It's like this, I saw your performance in the Kyudo tournament, and I'm also very interested in you. I'd like to invite you to join the Saichin Academy for further study." Han Chen said straightforwardly, without any beating around the bush.

  Xiao Hong did not immediately respond, his eyes moved slightly. If it were in the past, such a thing would undoubtedly be extremely good news for Xiao Hong. Although he had read many books, he had never received systematic education. Entering a prestigious school like Xijin Magic Academy was absolutely a rare opportunity.

  However, after passing through the Dark Merging Caverns and especially after meeting Chai Shuang, this Tian Jiao girl of the Western Spiritual Academy, Xiao Hong had some resistance towards the Western Spiritual Academy. But thinking back, this was another good opportunity to further improve himself, why give it up? After all, Chai Shuang's character and his own strength increase seemed to have no necessary connection.

  "I need some time to think about it." Xiao Hong did not immediately refuse or agree.

  "Alright, I'll hear your answer three days later." Han Chen said and then cut off the connection.

  As for Xiao Hong's conversation with Han Chen, Li Le on the side could naturally hear it clearly and hurriedly said: "Hong brother, are you really going to Xijin Magic Academy? What about our store then?"

  "I haven't decided yet, and even if I go, it's just a few classes a day, it won't affect anything." Xiao Hong responded in a low voice. That's right, doing so would indeed have some impact on the business of Da Hong Mei, but Xiao Hong didn't want to give up the opportunity to improve himself because of this. More importantly, if he didn't have his strange illness, Xiao Hong wouldn't mind being a beautician for life, maintaining the status quo, and having enough to eat and wear. But reality did not allow him to do so, he had to climb up and find a way to cure his strange disease.

  Of course, whether or not to go to Seijin Academy is just an intention and has not been decided.

  After having breakfast, Xiao Hong began a new day of work, receiving one customer after another. After all, this was Xiao Hong's main source of income.

  Until six o'clock in the evening, Xiao Hong, who had finished a day's work, returned to his bedroom without stopping, discarded all distractions, and prepared to start making the transformation tattoo.

  Chapter 106 News!

  The entire transformation magic pattern is not too complicated, with only two magic patterns and seven or eight materials involved. However, the greatest challenge lies in one's heart; once failed, all previous efforts will be in vain.

  If you want to get a variant beast's gallbladder again, once you leave this village, there won't be a store like this anymore.

  Lock the door, pull up the curtains, and install soundproof stickers on the doors and windows. Xiao Hong sat in front of the desk, took a deep breath, listened to Mu Xi's singing for over ten minutes, then picked up a blank concave white jade stone, held "Huan Diao" and concentrated on carving patterns and textures on the stone.

  The pattern is not complicated, and it takes only ten or so minutes to carve. Then comes the mixing of the magical liquid, basically all the materials have been processed in the morning, now just need to dissolve or mix them together in a certain way.

  Such a situation, Xiao Hong had experienced countless times, but this time, it seemed extra difficult. The reason was that there could be no mistakes now. The variant beast gall in Xiao Hong's hands wasn't something that could be bought at will.

  For the processing of Variant Beast Bile, Xiao Hong had it deeply ingrained in his mind that it must be heated to sixty degrees and then injected into two different magical pattern liquids. If it's below this number, the substances in the beast bile can't be fully activated, and the effect will be very poor. Once it exceeds sixty degrees and reaches seventy degrees, the beast bile will be completely ruined.

  So mastering temperature has become crucial.

  In the past, Xiao Hong was not bothered by this kind of temperature, but now he is bearing the enormous psychological pressure, just like walking on a steel wire in the high altitude of 10,000 meters, and if he loses focus for a moment, he will be shattered.

  However, Xiao Hong, who was still relatively calm in his heart, quickly adjusted his mood, took a few deep breaths, and carefully extracted the bile from the Variant Beast's gallbladder, pouring it into a special container and activating the heating magic pattern.

  From start to finish, Xiao Hong's expression was like a sculpture, without the slightest fluctuation, trying his best to enter an empty state of mind. In his mind, there was only one simple "program": watching the thermometer reach sixty degrees, taking it out, and pouring it into two tubes of well-proportioned magic ink.

  Xiao Hong himself was very clear that the more he considered now, the greater the possibility of mistakes.

  Almost as soon as the thermometer indicated sixty degrees, Xiao Hong made a decisive move, disregarding how hot the test tube was, and directly grasped it, quickly and steadily pouring its contents into two bottles of magical potion that had been previously mixed in proportion.

  In an instant, the emerald-green variant beast core quickly dissolved into the two vials of magical liquid, causing them to transform into two different colors, one red and one black.

  He carefully picked up the two test tubes and found that they were **extremely pure, without a single speck of impurity. Xiao Hong finally let out a slight sigh of relief, successful, without any mishaps.

  Having completed this step, the rest is basically what Xiao Hong excels at. Picking up the V-shaped carving knife, Xiao Hong begins to inject the magic pattern liquid one by one, using up every last bit of the two thumb-sized magic pattern liquids, just enough to fill the entire magic pattern.

  Xiao Hong then placed the cyan-black magic bead aside, and his hands covered the transforming magic pattern, starting the final step of activation. In the process, when his strength was about to be exhausted, Xiao Hong still threw the magic bead with great familiarity.

  Fifteen seconds later, looking at the red and black magic pattern on the table again, a brilliant light flashed, condensing into a crystal.

  "It succeeded."

  Xiao Hong muttered to himself, and then his body went limp, collapsing onto the chair. As he relaxed, the sweat on his forehead flowed down instantly, and he panted heavily with his mouth open. The series of actions just now didn't require much physical strength, but it was a huge test for his mental and psychological endurance.

  To know, once this move is unsuccessful, Xiao Hong will not be able to become a rider in a short period of time, in other words, it has completely cut off the hope of treating his own illness. However, fortunately, everything has passed.

  With a slight adjustment of his breath, Xiao Hong placed the transformation magic pattern on his palm, allowing the driving force in his body to seep into it, just like legend had it, neither more nor less, fifteen strands.

  This is also the special place of this transformation pattern, no matter what method is used, no matter how high the means are, it is fifteen stocks, that is to say, using fifteen times can make the body's potential energy undergo a thorough qualitative change.

  Xiao Hong used the technique of "texture within texture", with the goal of making the transformation even more thorough and pure. He took a look at the power inside his body, which was less than two hundred strands. Xiao Hong didn't hesitate, picked up the Transformation Magic Pattern, along with a brand new second-generation Driving Fragrance Magic Pattern, as well as Mo Nai, sat cross-legged on the bed, preparing to begin his first cultivation session.

  As Xiao Hong activated the three magic patterns and activated a strand of energy in the transformation pattern, in an instant, Xiao Hong only felt a special energy penetrate deep into his body and quickly merge with the driving force within his body.

  At this time, Xiao Hong only felt that the originally calm and gentle power had suddenly become extremely active, just like steel being tempered in a fierce fire.

  The feeling was absolutely unbearable, but Xiao Hong could still hold on. At the same time, Xiao Hong also drove the second-generation Jade Emperor's mark, and with the drive of the Jade Emperor's mark, Xiao Hong suddenly realized that the jade energy inside his body had begun to grow again, although slowly, it had indeed started to grow.

  It wasn't until midnight that the first round of qualitative change cultivation ended. The original 1000 units of driving force had increased to 1011 units, and the long-awaited feeling of driving force enhancement made Xiao Hong feel extremely good.

  Similarly, this also made Xiao Hong realize that becoming a Rider not only allowed him to control the dark blue magic mark bead, but also manipulate energy mark knives for surgery, ride wind marks to speed up movement, and so on.

  It can be said that it has undergone a transformation and risen to another level.

  However, now Xiao Hong's physical strength has been exhausted, and he carefully put away the three magic seals, locked them in a drawer, and then fell asleep on the bed.

  Before he knew it, the time had arrived at dawn. Xiao Hong, who woke up from his sleep, did not do anything else, and the first thing he did was to open the drawer, take out the transformation magic pattern, and cultivate again.

  It can be said that becoming a rider is only a matter of time now. According to the normal speed, after the fifteen strands of riding force in the magic pattern are consumed, the riding force will be completely transformed. With the help of the second-generation riding fragrance magic pattern, it takes half a month's time. However, at this time, Xiao Hong seems a bit anxious and eager to make progress earlier if possible.

  To others, it's just a few days, nothing special, but to Xiao Hong, time is much more precious than ordinary people.

  The sooner you become a rider, it also means that you will leave more time for yourself to find a way to cure the strange disease.

  Until eight o'clock in the morning, Xiao Hong, who had completed another round of cultivation, slowly opened his eyes and then opened the door to prepare for breakfast.

  Just as Xiao Hong removed the soundproofing charm and opened the door, he saw that Little Wolf was already standing at the entrance, holding a fresh fruit in his arms, staring at Xiao Hong with his round and bright little eyes.

  "You're such a glutton, every time I see you, I know you've eaten again. Just look at how fat you are." Xiao Hong picked up Xiao Qi Lang and chuckled, reaching out to rub his chubby belly.

  "It seems that it's also time for you to find a good owner." Xiao Hong gazed at the little creature on his shoulder, muttering softly to himself. Although he was somewhat reluctant, there was no other way around it. If this little wolf cub continued to grow like this, its wild nature would not only degenerate completely, but its combat strength would also fail to increase in the slightest, becoming no different from a domestic dog.

  Xiao Hong himself cannot become a summoner, his goal is to be an alchemist. More importantly, half a year later, if he doesn't find a way to save himself, Xiao Hong knows what will happen. If he finds a way, it's certain that he'll need to continue climbing up and won't have the energy to take care of it.

  Muxi'er should be a great choice, the girl is patient and has a big star identity, absolutely super rich, Xiao Qi Lang's life will also get better, fighting power will increase greatly, just hope the little guy can like his new owner.

  With this idea in mind, Xiao Hong took out his communication talisman and, although a bit nervous, managed to get in touch with Mu Xi'er.

  "Xiao Hong, hello! I heard you went to the Dark Fusion Caverns. How was it?" Along with Muxi'er's connection, her voice like a clear spring entered Xiao Hong's ears. Apparently, she had already memorized his communication talisman code.

  "It's all good, I got what I deserved. Besides, didn't you want to keep the little spirit beast? I've already gotten it, when are you coming over to take a look?" Xiao Hong was straightforward and spoke his mind, while in his heart he had already thought it through - if Xiao Qi liked Mu Xi'er, then let Mu Xi'er take her away; if not, then treat her like Li Le and just keep her by his side.

  "Really?" The voice of Muxi'er came through the communication mark, "I know, you wait for me, I'll finish what I'm doing and go over."

  Zhong Xinlian, Xiao Hong glanced at the little wolf on his shoulder, gnawing on fresh fruit, and smiled again. He then took it to the front hall for breakfast before preparing to continue with the day's work.

  Just as Xiao Hong had finished his breakfast, the TV in the living room was broadcasting a news program from Tai Wu News Network, which brought a piece of news: "General Lu Xue Ning, the female general of the Kingdom of Singa, will formally arrive at Tai Wu City next month to launch a friendly visit to Tai Wu City.

  Of course, this news has been around for a long time, but today is the first time it's been made public. Amidst the random video clips of Shadow Weaver, recent footage of Luo Xue Ning also started playing, and such news can be said to be explosive.

  Xiao Hong had just finished breakfast and was drinking the remaining milk when he heard the news, his expression changed involuntarily, and his eyes fixed on the TV screen, a familiar feeling rushed back.
