Chapter 243 - 243: The second heart
“Let’s go, follow me,”
Then, the Grand Magus elder held Lu Chen’s hand and led him to the totem pillar.
Lu Chen was confused.
“Grand Magus, what did you call me here for?”
“What am I doing? of course, I’m here to reward you. We Barbarians won’t ignore geniuses. We will only have a future if you become stronger.”
Geniuses would receive preferential treatment no matter where they were.
The Grand Magus elder then brought Lu Chen back to the totem World.
Inside, the Grand Magus elder said, ” according to the clan’s rules, you have two chances to choose. One is to choose a skill, and the other is to allocate resources. You can think about what weapon or armor you need as a reward, or what kind of skill you need.
Lu Chen thought for a while and said, “choosing the resources will increase my current strength while choosing the skills will increase my strength in the future.’
With that thought in mind, Lu Chen looked at his skills and made a decision.
Grand Magus, can I exchange my two choices for supplies? ‘
That’s right, in the end, Lu Chen still chose the supplies.
although I’ll become stronger after choosing a skill, I can use my weapons and armor directly, but I need to cultivate my skills. Although I don’t have to spend time cultivating, I need to spend mastery points to improve them.
but my current mastery points are not enough to level up my current skills. It’ll be a little troublesome to learn new skills.
Lu Chen’s idea was very good, but unfortunately, the Grand Magus elder rejected it.
no, every choice is the same. This is for your own good.
If it was an ordinary barbarian, it would be for their own good. The resources would increase their current strength while the skills would help the Barbarian geniuses develop in the future. They complemented each other. However, Lu Chen was a special case. He never lacked skills.
However, Lu Chen didn’t say anything else since he couldn’t convince the Grand Magus.
forget it. It’s just an opportunity to increase my skills. I can’t give it up.
With that in mind, Lu Chen followed the Grand Wizard master to the skill slates.
When they arrived, Lu Chen realized that he wasn’t the only one choosing skills. There were a lot of barbarians that Lu Chen felt threatened by.
these are the sons of the leaders who have completed the Royal Court’s mission. They are developing well and can receive rewards from the Royal Court.
Grand Magus elder saw Lu Chen’s confusion and explained it to him. Lu Chen also remembered that red butterfly Ji once said that even the son of the leader who left the Royal Court to expand his territory was still related to the Royal Court.
The sons of the leaders who went out also had to pay taxes to the Royal Court. Similarly, when the tribe of the leader’s son encountered an irrepressible disaster, they could also seek help from the Royal Court.
At the same time, the sons of the leaders who went out were also considered the tentacles of the Barbarian king’s court. If they were strong, the overall strength of the Barbarian king’s court would also improve. Therefore, in order to reward and encourage them, the Barbarian king’s court would also reward those geniuses who went out to expand and achieved results.
Now, it seemed that this was the time for those people to receive their rewards.
“In the future, I will also bring my subordinates here once a year. On one hand, we can build a relationship with the Barbarian King, and on the other, we can come here to exchange for resources and skills.”
Lu Chen closed his eyes and used his intuition to search for skills.
Lu Chen didn’t pay attention to the others, but they were still quite interested in him. After all, Lu Chen’s reputation had spread throughout the Royal Court after he earned the title of ‘invincible among his peers’. Many of them were even ready to challenge Lu Chen.
However, with the Grand Magus elder by his side, no one dared to disturb Lu Chen. Just like that, Lu Chen relied on his intuition and soon stopped in front of a stone tablet.
When he opened his eyes, a skill’s description came into his sight.
“Second heart!”
the heart is the source of qi and blood, the root of power. The stronger the heart, the stronger the barbarian’s strength.
this technique uses qi and blood to open up a new heart, increasing the storage of qi and blood in the body and increasing the strength of the Barbarian race.
Note: This is a dangerous technique. There are special conditions required to open up a new heart. Only barbarian kings who have reached the intermediate level and have the ability to heal themselves can practice this technique.
Lu Chen sighed at the sight. only those with the Barbarian King’s bloodline can learn it. As expected, the strong will always be strong!
Lu Chen once said that the Barbarian King’s bloodline not only could evolve into the God’s blood, but also had another advantage. The God’s Blood Warriors were strong and could create many excellent skills.
Some of the techniques created by the Barbarian King, who possessed the
God’s blood, could be learned by everyone. However, there was another part that could only be learned by the Prince who had the bloodline of the Barbarian King. The second heart was one such technique.
This might be unfair to others, but there was no such thing as absolute fairness in the world.
Lu Chen shook his head to get rid of the unnecessary thoughts in his mind and chose the second heart.
Lu Chen’s consciousness moved and he placed his palm on the monument. After a slight tremble, Lu Chen’s consciousness left his body and entered the monument, possessing the Barbarian King’s body.
The Barbarian King who was possessed by Lu Chen was currently condensing a second heart. Therefore, the Barbarian King didn’t even need to explain anything and Lu Chen could just rely on his intuition to sense it. However, after sensing his own body, Lu Chen gasped in shock.
the second heart! This Barbarian King has more than two hearts!
That’s right, after the possession, Lu Chen realized that even though the skill was called ‘second heart’, the Barbarian King was forming the seventh heart.
The Barbarian King that Lu Chen possessed was 12 meters tall. In his chest, there were four large hearts beating vigorously. At the same time, there were two smaller hearts on his legs.
Lu Chen’s consciousness trembled at the sight.
such a physique is almost completely different from a human’s.
Lu Chen exclaimed. But soon, he realized that as the cultivation progressed, the strong would live for thousands of years. If they could move mountains and seas with their bodies alone, they wouldn’t be called ordinary humans anymore.
in fact, the powerful can even pass down their excellent bloodline when they reproduce. I’ve seen people with fangs and hair. Of course, such people can’t be called ordinary people.
“We have always been advancing forward on the path of evolution.” As he thought about it, the unhappiness in Lu Chen’s heart disappeared completely and he focused on the second heart.
His consciousness had no concept of time. After an unknown period of time, Lu Chen finally woke up from the skill stele.
As soon as he woke up, Lu Chen heard the system notification.
