Killing God Chapter 78: Swordsman
Xiaochen retracted his thoughts and looked to go, this is a valley, there are no plants on both sides of the valley, some are blackened stones, and the white jade floor that stretches under his feet, when stepping on it, ripples appear like water.
"This is the place where the sword is buried in Xuanqing Mountain. The evil spirit inside is very strong. If you are a little careless, you may lose your mind. Even if you are not afraid of the evil spirit, the sword spirit is still in this place. If you are not careful, it will be finished." Introducing this place, I easily said two things that may be completely over.
Xiaochen didn't speak, and the sick old man continued: "But that's exactly what it is, suffocating qi trains the mind, sword qi trains the physique, and the second level of cultivation, this place must be the best place, after all, this exercise, hehe, You'll know when the time comes."
"There are still two guardian beasts here. If you are familiar with it, I guarantee that no one will offend you in this Xuanqing Mountain." The sick old man said whether Xiaochen accepted it or not.
Actually, there is no need to tell the sick old man. When Xiaochen first walked into the valley, he already felt a sharp smell in the air, but when he was in it, the skin all over his body was a little itchy. Going inside, the more intense it became, the itchiness later became like a knife cut, and Xiao Chen's body felt a little faint.
"The method of cultivation is very simple. It's all in the book. In the following days, you will cultivate here. Two years later, you will participate in the martial arts competition." Chen alone in the valley.
Seeing that the sick old man quickly turned into a small black spot and disappeared, Xiao Chen sat down on the spot and opened the second-level cultivation method of Soul Tempering and Body Refinement.
Thousands of hardenings produce fine gold, and forging the body is also a principle. Only by constantly wandering between continuous destruction and rebirth, can the strongest body be forged. The second step of Soul Refinement Exercise was mentioned at the beginning, followed by the method of how to cultivate in this destruction and rebirth. Rao is Xiaochen who was already prepared, but still can't help getting a cold on his back, what kind of body training is this Ah, this is clearly a refiner.
According to the book, Xiao Chen came to a conclusion: this time, you only need to take a breath.
After reading for a while, Xiaochen put away the booklet and looked around. It was already a long way from the valley entrance, and there were several forks in front of him. He didn't know where to go, so Xiaochen chose whatever he wanted. Walking along a road, there are long swords inserted everywhere on the mountain wall. Most of these swords are the same in style, only a few are different, and there are other non-sword weapons. It seems that this place where swords are buried, Just a general term, not just buried swords.
The more you go inside, the stronger the splitting feeling on the skin will be. Slowly, red marks have appeared on Xiaochen's skin. This is a sign that the skin has reached the limit of tolerance. Go further. If so, the skin will be separated.
But after reading the content of the exercises, Xiaochen didn't care. The sick old man let himself stay here to practice for two years, and he only had two years left to live. It would be better to get used to it earlier.
Sure enough, Xiaochen didn't advance a hundred paces, starting from the back of his hand, then on his legs and face, the sword energy permeating the air was constantly slashing open, and bright red blood continued to flow out. He walked, this time before he took fifty steps, there were a lot of wounds on his body. There was blood on the white jade floor that Xiaochen walked on, but the strange thing was that the blood didn't exist for a long time, and it seemed to be absorbed by the floor. In general, the color of the white jade floor has not changed at all.
When Xiaochen was in Tianshu Pavilion, he read the introduction about the six paths of Xuanqing. In the middle of the broken sword path is the center of the broken blade against the sky. The sword carving of Xuanyuan sword is also standing there. Xiaochen keeps walking. I just wanted to see this sword carving with my own eyes, but at this moment, Xiao Chen has reached the limit, and there are wounds all over his body. He also deliberately protected his eyes with his True Yuan, but for some reason, none of the sword qi here is rushing. Came with eyes.
Xiaochen knows that if he insists on going deeper, he may still be able to walk a distance, but even if he can see the sword carving, he will not stay for long. It was too late, so Xiaochen turned around and wanted to go out. What he had to do was to wait for the wound to recover in the weak sword qi, and then continue to come in. This process of destruction and rebirth is the second requirement of quenching the soul and refining the body. first step.
Xiaochen retreated to the periphery of the Canned Sword Dao, sat down cross-legged, did not mobilize his true essence to heal the wound, but let the power of his body repair the wound automatically. Xiaochen came to the Canned Sword Dao to practice this time, only the sick old man knew. Including Ling Ziling, Xiaochen didn't tell anyone, only Xiaochen can decide how much he can train his body in these two years.
About the martial arts competition, Xiaochen also knows that this is a feast of Xuanqing Mountain, a feast of young talents in Xuanqing Mountain. The rules of the competition are that anyone who is over a hundred years old can participate.
The use of weapons and magic weapons is uniformly distributed by the sect, and cannot be brought with them. This is a specially set rule to prevent people from relying on the benefits of magic weapons to oppress people and cause unfair competition.
The top 100 in the same realm are allowed to challenge by leaps and bounds. In addition, there is a restriction in the competition. Disciples whose cultivation base has reached the realm of the primordial spirit are not allowed to participate in the competition. This rule has been in effect for countless years. There is almost no chance. Condensing the primordial spirit is the first major difficulty for cultivators. Ordinary cultivators have hundreds of years of insight and cultivation before they have the opportunity to break through. If they want to break through within a hundred years, it is impossible.
There are rumors that in ancient times, spiritual medicines were very abundant, and there were several anti-sky spiritual medicines that could help cultivators understand the secrets of the Dao, which made it much easier to condense the primordial spirit. But now, the world has changed, and a lot of treasured elixir has disappeared. Medicines with such efficacy have never appeared in modern times.
Such as Xuanyuan Yuhao, Ling Xiao, Jian Tongzi, etc., who have joined Xuanqing Mountain for many years, were directly accepted as disciples by the Dao Zun. The goal is to be the first among their peers, and they even succeeded in the challenge. This is not because they value it. Fake name.
It is just something that the cultivators of the much-anticipated geniuses should undertake. They bear the name of this genius and enjoy the most abundant cultivation resources in Xuanqing Mountain. In the eyes of all people, they are dazzling, they are excellent, they are proud of their peers, all of these are as it should be.
If someone unfortunately doesn't get good grades, they will bear a bad name that shouldn't be on their backs. This is the heart of the people.
Everyone only sees that the geniuses are high and powerful, and at the same time, a few people think about the meaning behind all this, the meaning they represent, the pressure they need to bear, maybe, there are too few geniuses, which means they can take on heavy responsibilities too few people.
As an ordinary disciple, Xiao Chen's thoughts are a little different from those of these geniuses.
No matter how I test, I don't have a foundation, so naturally it can only be regarded as the Qi refining period. At that time, I will participate in the Qi refining period monk competition. Hehe...and then challenge the foundation-building stage by "crossing the steps", hehe...after two years of staying here, maybe I can challenge those who have just entered the embryonic stage. Hey hey black.
Xiao Chen thought to himself, and his mouth kept emitting conspiratorial laughter, because he was not meditating and training, but just allowing his body to recover, even if he was thinking wildly, it would have no effect.
"Brother, what do you think this kid is laughing at?" Behind a boulder not far from Xiaochen, two big heads stuck out to look at Xiaochen, and one of them spoke just now.
"Who do you call my brother, I think it may be sick, you see, he is covered in blood." Another said.
Although the voice is weak, Xiaochen is not a normal person. Even if he is daydreaming, it does not affect his feelings towards the outside world. After hearing the voice, Xiaochen immediately opened his eyes alertly, and the interesting thing is to see When Xiaochen opened his eyes, the two big heads quickly retracted back to the boulder, and wanted to hide, but all this was clearly seen by Xiaochen.
Xiaochen thought it was interesting, so he stood up and walked slowly towards the boulder. During the process of walking towards the boulder, Xiaochen heard them talking again "Brother, shall we kill him?"
"Who do you call my brother? Don't kill him. Last time I accidentally beat him to death, but he still had the aura of Qingmingzhu."
"Brother, it won't be so coincidental, there are so many people with the breath of Qingmingzhu, let's kill him, otherwise he will find us in a while."
"Who are you going to call my brother? In this way, we'll just cut off his hands and feet, and don't kill him."
"Brother, you have to cut your head too."
"Who do you call my brother, you will die before you cut it."
The more Xiaochen listened, the more chills felt. These two idiots actually discussed whether to beat themselves to death, or cut them into human sticks, but who is Xiaochen? Climb up the boulder gently.
"Brothers, what are you talking about?" Xiao Chen suddenly jumped off the boulder, put his arms around one, and said.
"Who's your brother?" said the two strange guys in unison this time.
"I'll call you two, brothers." Xiao Chen was not afraid and said with a smile.
"Brother, we are all brothers now, hey, then we won't have to fight over who is the eldest brother?" said one of them, shaking his head.
"Hey, that's true, brother." Another said happily after thinking for a moment.
Xiaochen opened his mouth, shocked, half of his face was twitching, could this be the legendary brainless? No, that head looks quite big.
"Brother, you are such a good person, you have helped us a lot." Xiao Chen was still in the aftershocks, when he didn't know what to say, he heard such a voice again.
Xiaochen closed his mouth and carefully looked at the two objects with zero intelligence in front of him. One was blue and the other was black. They were much taller than the average adult, but they had four extra arms under each of the ribs, and a pair of large Feet are much bigger than the average person.
"Brother, you...what are you?" Xiao Chen felt that he didn't know what to say for the first time, so he could only ask casually.
"Who do you call my brother?" said the blue and black monsters at the same time.
"Uh..." Xiao Chen was speechless.
"Big brother, who is your brother? We are all brothers." The two monsters spoke at the same time.
Only then did Xiao Chen realize that he was wrong, and then patted the green monster and said, "I'm calling you, brother."
"Then you have to ask again, just ask me to not ask what 'we' is." Qing Wei's innocent words made Xiao Chen feel a long-lost "movement" and wanted to cry.
"Brother, what are you?" Xiao Chen asked again, he felt that his intelligence would soon be the same as theirs.
"Oh, big brother, I'm not a thing." The green monster replied without hesitation.
"Then who are you?" Seeing his answer and looking at himself, Xiao Chen had to ask again.
"You didn't call me brother just now, I won't say it." When he said this, the green monster didn't hesitate at all.
If it weren't for the dried blood on his face, he might be able to see the black lines on Xiao Chen's face at the moment, he secretly told himself, hold back, maybe it will be fine in the future.
After a very laborious inquiry by Xiao Chen, I finally learned something useful. These two strange things, green and black, are sword slaves.
Without names, Xiaochen simply called the blue one Xiaoqing and the black one Xiaohei. They were responsible for guarding this place and maintaining the "spiritual" order of the place. After listening to the conversation just now, combined with what happened to him, it was obvious that they were Almost got "accidentally" killed by one of them.
Since they were born in the ancient times, they have been arguing about who is the eldest brother and who is the younger brother. This age-old problem was solved by Xiaochen's brothers. They decided to make Xiaochen the eldest brother. Both of them are older brothers. , so that they are equal.
This statement, Xiao Chen thought about it carefully, don't say it, it seems to be quite reasonable.
