The Heart of the Mother Killer and the Blood of the Undead Child are quite troublesome. It can only be said that the rituals of the Demon Sect are really strange. This kind of thing, if you say it is valuable, it is not that valuable. If you say it is not valuable, it is also very difficult to get.
Of course, from the current perspective, it is unlikely that the Jujing Liuzhu Jue and Moxiao Wuji Gong will reach perfection on the next full moon night, so he still has some time.
If you can reach a higher level every month, you are not a genius but a monster.
Shi Hao held his breath and began to try to release the Jujing Liuzhu true qi while activating the Mo Xiao Wuji Gong in his body.
Originally, his two foundations of Taoism and magic, one in the upper dantian and the other in the lower dantian, counteracted each other and promoted each other.
At this moment, he released one of these two internal forces and restrained the other, wanting to see what would happen.
However, he found that the Jujing Liuzhu true energy covered his body and could not be dispersed. The internal force of Mo Xiao Wuji Gong also flowed slowly and could not form a magic energy vortex in his body.
It seems that there is no problem in practicing these two kinds of true qi together, but it will be a bit troublesome if you want to use them together.
It’s not that they cannot be used together, but these two kinds of true qi, one releases outwards and the other retracts inwards, and because they are in contact with each other, they always maintain a subtle counterbalance.
Generally speaking, when he used the Jujing Liuzhu Qi, the Mo Xiao Wuji Gong was sealed in the lower dantian, and when he used the Mo Xiao Wuji Gong, the Jujing Liuzhu Qi was sealed in the upper dantian, without interfering with each other. Occasionally, they were used interchangeably, but it was just like a "flash in the pan", with a quick switch.
Just like when he was dealing with Zhuo Mulan, his Mo Xiao Wuji Gong was almost exhausted, and his Ju Jing Liu Zhu true energy was suddenly released, catching Zhuo Mulan off guard.
Although the switch is fast, there is still a relationship of first and last.
Now that he has used his two skills, he has found that he can neither retract nor release. I guess they themselves are very confused. Are you going to retract or release
At this moment, the two internal forces were like objects pulling in different directions, but because they were in too deep contact with each other, they rubbed against each other and ended up dragging each other down.
His mind moved slightly, thinking that these two kinds of internal force could be used together, unable to release or retract, so he couldn't even use any moves.
But at a critical moment, gathering the energy around the body like this might also be a powerful protective energy.
In fact, he had used similar methods when dealing with Zhuo Mulan, but he still relied on rapid switching, which could only block the remaining force.
If Zhuo Mulan hit him with all her strength, he would have no chance of withstanding it.
However, if these two techniques are used to protect the body at the same time, the enemy's internal force will have to break through the double defense of ice and fire, and the power will be greatly weakened.
Shi Hao thought to himself: "In some special occasions, it might be a means."
At this moment, his mind moved again.
He discovered that the friction between these two completely opposite internal forces, as they were used simultaneously, actually gave rise to a faint new kind of true energy.
They were so rare, like the insignificant heat dissipated during the friction of objects, invisible and intangible, but he could only barely sense their existence.
What is this? Shi Hao wondered in surprise.
Could it be "fusion"? It felt like oxygen and metal came into contact with each other, forming oxides under certain conditions. He didn't know if this description was appropriate, but there was indeed some strange and mysterious true energy that quietly emerged in this delicate situation.
Thinking of this, Shi Hao made up his mind and let the two kinds of internal forces of Taoism and Demon flow in his body, one in the positive direction and the other in the negative direction, each of them circulated the great circle.
In the past, although they were in a subtle confrontation in his body, they were generally balanced, just like the Jing River and the Wei River, which were in contact with each other but also clearly separated. When practicing, the meridians in his body also flowed along the flow.
At this moment, they filled his body and flowed together, but in completely opposite directions.
As a result, the two internal forces collided with each other in his body, and he felt a tearing pain in his meridians.
After half an hour, he could no longer bear it and had to stop. He was sweating all over and felt that his meridians were broken and he was in extreme pain.
That new true energy had a little more.
He let out a slow breath, allowing the inner energy in his body to gradually calm down.
It was not until this moment that he truly had a feeling of "cultivation". Before this, he had been trying to keep the two kinds of internal forces, Taoism and Demon, balanced in his body, and then just left them alone, allowing them to improve on their own.
Shi Hao stood up, found some clean clothes from his package, left the guest room and walked toward the corridor.
He had asked in the evening and learned that there was a water source in the yard on the other side for the men in the temple and the children who stayed there to practice martial arts to take a bath after practicing.
Passing by the back window of Xu Xiaoyan's room, he heard the voices of two girls talking, and they mentioned his name.
He stopped and listened for a while. There was actually the sound of water coming from the window, and vaguely, there was mist on the paper on the window pane, and the two girls inside were bathing together in the tub.
"I just don't believe that nothing happened when you were traveling with Shi Hao?" Chen Yan'er laughed, "Especially at night, when it was quiet, in the middle of the night, a man and a woman hugged each other..."
"Only a fool would hug him!" Xu Xiaoyan said unhappily, "Yan'er, you talk more and more as you grow older."
Chen Yaner said with a smile: "I heard that the people in the martial arts world live on the edge of a knife, living today and dying tomorrow, so when the heroes and heroines in the martial arts world meet, they are most likely to be moved. In addition, the world is so big, and after parting today, we don’t know when we will meet again, so we did it..."
Xu Xiaoyan said: "You have a rich imagination. Those who walk in the martial arts world know that they are walking on the edge of a knife, so who wouldn't be more cautious? Knights are afraid of meeting female demons, and female knights are afraid of meeting scumbags. Who would trust others so easily and sleep with them at any time
"Besides, if you do something like that, what if you get pregnant?"
Chen Yan'er said: "I heard that as long as the inner strength is strong, it can force out the things that the man left in the woman's body, and then she will not get pregnant."
This was obviously the first time Xu Xiaoyan had heard this information: "Really? Is there such a thing?"
"Come to think of it!" Chen Yan'er sighed, "Xiaoyan, when you were wearing clothes, I didn't realize it, but now that I look at you like this, you have grown a lot in the past three years..."
Xu Xiaoyan shouted, "Don't move."
From inside came the sound of splashing water and the sounds of two girls playing and playing.
Shi Hao left quickly.
When we arrived at the yard, we saw water coming from the mountains and enclosed in a pool with a wooden barrel beside it. Many children must have washed there before, and there was water everywhere around.
Shi Hao took a cold shower here and changed his clothes. When he went back, he could hear the two of them talking while taking a shower outside the window. It can only be said that girls are really slow.
After returning to the guest room, he hung the clothes he had washed in the yard on the bamboo poles outside, and then went back to rest.
At daybreak, before I was fully awake, I heard knocks on the door.
Chapter 78 The Lower Nine Classes
Shi Hao got dressed and opened the door, then saw Xu Xiaoyan standing at the door.
Shi Hao asked in confusion: "What are you doing so early in the morning?"
Xu Xiaoyan laughed and said, "Of course I'm going to gather intelligence. The early bird catches the worm. Don't be lazy here."
Shi Hao said: "The early bird catches the worm, so being lazy doesn't matter!"
Having said that, he still quickly washed himself, then left the Taoist temple with Xu Xiaoyan and wandered around the streets.
At this moment, Xu Xiaoyan changed into a red skirt and had a short sword on her waist. Before going out, she asked him to bring the sword and wear it on her waist as well.
While walking on the road, Shi Hao looked at her from the side and saw that the chest curve of her double-breasted top was quite good. It seemed that although she looked fine on the surface, she was actually quite well developed inside.
One morning, after Shi Hao and she used the Evil Shadow Disguise Technique to disguise themselves, they wandered around everywhere, moving back and forth in the streets and alleys.
Shi Hao asked doubtfully, "Where are we going?"
Xu Xiaoyan said: "What is the most important thing when arriving in a new city? Intelligence, of course. If you don't have intelligence, you are like a blind man in the martial arts world. You can't do anything."
He looked up and said, "Found it!"
Shi Hao looked up and saw that this was just an ordinary-looking house at the entrance of an alley. A tattered flag was stuck on the wall. The grey flag was embroidered with a random pattern that resembled a dragon or a snake, and it was impossible to tell what it was.
Xu Xiaoyan pulled him and said, "Let's go!" But they turned around and went to the back, where they saw a back door and two big men were leaning against the door and chatting.
The two men looked at them, but Xu Xiaoyan ignored them and pulled Shi Hao inside.
The two men did not stop them, and soon continued talking to themselves.
Shi Hao followed Xu Xiaoyan into the courtyard and walked through the house. There were a few people playing Mahjong in the house, but they also didn't even look at them.
Xu Xiaoyan looked around and said, "Here!" Then she pulled Shi Hao into a side hall, where there was a passage leading all the way down.
When he got downstairs, Shi Hao discovered that this was actually a hidden tavern, with many gangsters chatting in groups of three or four.
Shi Hao asked: "What is this place?"
Xu Xiaoyan said: "The lowest class!"
Shi Hao turned his head to look at her: "The lowest class?"
Xu Xiaoyan pulled him and said, "In the martial arts world, this is the easiest place to get intelligence." He came to the counter and sat down on two square stools. "Boss."
Behind the counter was an old man, holding a rag in his hand, wiping the table carelessly: "What would you two like to order?"
Xu Xiaoyan took out a tael of silver and handed it to the old man: "We want to find something to do in Daxing City!"
The old man tapped the silver coins lightly, and the silver coins rolled into his sleeves. This move alone showed his strength. He looked at the young man with a hooked nose and a sinister face, and the ugly girl with uneven facial features: "New faces of Daxing City! Daxing City has been windy and rainy recently, so you should take it easy. If you want to become famous, Daxing City is not a good place now."
Xu Xiaoyan laughed and said: "We don't want to be famous, we just want to make money!"
The old man took out a stack of papers and gently pushed them forward: "It's good to make money! Daxing is a good place to make money. There is plenty of money to be made. As long as you have the ability, it will be fine. As I said before... Take it easy! Life is more important than money!"
Xu Xiaoyan said quietly: "Once you are in the arena, you have no choice!"
The old man said, "You are so young, and you are saying this? You will only know what the martial arts world is like when you are old."
Xu Xiaoyan pulled Shi Hao to sit in the corner. She gave half of the stack of things in her hand to Shi Hao.
Shi Hao looked at them one by one and found that they were like official bulletins from the underworld, and they were all printed.
—"One of the four dragon and snake generals of the Shark Dragon Gang, 'Hundred Poison Mysterious Insect', led the crowd to destroy the Beiwen Sect, and the Beiwen Sect was destroyed."
—"Master Duan Qing's martial arts improved and he entered the fifth rank. He wanted to challenge the leader of Xuande Sect. The leader of Xuande Sect avoided the fight and came out. Master Duan Qing became more famous in Daxing City."
—"The successor of the Residual Sun Palm rushed into the Xionghu Gate to avenge the murder of his master. After killing seven people in a row, he was besieged and died."
These pieces of news are all martial arts anecdotes that have occurred in Daxing City and its surrounding areas in recent days, and most of them do not directly write the names of the people involved in the incident, but only their titles.
Those who do not have a nickname are often referred to as "the successor of the Setting Sun Palm" or "the Tiantai Mountain Swordsman".
Although Shi Hao was involved in the underworld, he didn't know much about its affairs. He was actually very interested in reading each picture.
When I saw the later part, after finishing the stories about the underworld, I found out that there were various recruitments.
—“The Burning Blade Overlord has established the Blade Sect and is actively recruiting heroes from the martial arts world. He is willing to work with people with lofty ideals to create a great cause in the martial arts world.”
—“The Invincible Sect has been challenged by masters many times because of the name of the sect. We want to change the name. We are looking for the heroes to give us some advice. If the new name is adopted, we will reward you generously.”
—"The accountant of Jiaotan of Tiandi Gang was assassinated. We want to hire a writer who is good at account books. The monthly salary is good, and there are good guards to protect you. Don't worry about your safety."
—"Hire a killer, kill someone, target ninth rank, reward 100 taels, only serious buyers please!"
Shi Hao sighed: "This really has everything." He looked at the girl. No wonder this girl seemed to know everything. It seemed that this was also an important channel.
Xu Xiaoyan smiled and said, "This place is called 'Xia Jiuliu'. It is actually a martial arts sect at the bottom of the martial arts world, doing intelligence-related business. There is such a place in almost every city.
"Not everyone knows about this kind of place, but only those who know about it understand its importance in the world. People go to high places, and water flows to low places.
"It's like a depression that gathers all kinds of intelligence into a pool. It depends on how much useful information you can find."
At this point, Xu Xiaoyan chuckled and leaned forward: "For example, your reputation in the martial arts world. Hehe, you don't even know it yourself, right? Everyone here already knows it."
Shi Hao was stunned: "Me? Name? My name in the world?" I actually have a name in the world
But Xu Xiaoyan turned one of the sheets over to him and Shi Hao looked at it carefully, and saw that there was indeed a paragraph of words on it.
—"A new face has appeared in the martial arts world. He is of unknown origin and a seventh-rank expert. He has killed the user of the 'Underworld Iron Bow' of the wealthy Akagi family and the 'Flying Scorpion Knife' of the Six Gates, and the head of the Yuandan Huo family and many others. He has just appeared in the martial arts world and is on the blacklist. He is nicknamed the 'Crazy Knife Hero'!"
Shi Hao was speechless: "The Crazy Blade Hero? Who gave me this nickname?" He always felt that this nickname was too common.
Moreover, why is he both “evil” and “heroic”
Xu Xiaoyan said with a grin, "It must have been those people from the Dark Thunder Society who took it, and then passed it on from one person to another, and it spread all of a sudden. Hey, Crazy Blade Hero, Crazy Blade Hero..."
She covered her stomach with her left hand, pounded the table with her right hand, and bent over with laughter.
Shi Hao thought about it and said with a headache: "It seems to be them! Crazy Knife, Crazy Knife... I only use a knife in front of them."
Xu Xiaoyan smiled and said, "Not bad. Not everyone's name can be recognized so quickly, and not everyone's name can be recorded in the 'lower nine classes' Jianghu Gazette. Not everyone's name can have the word 'xia' in it."
"It is because they recognize you that your name spreads so quickly. It is because they recognize you as a 'hero' that the word 'hero' can be included in your name. In the martial arts world, there are countless people who want to gain a good reputation, but not everyone's name can have the word 'hero' in it."
Shi Hao thought about it and it seemed to be true.
But he still felt that the name was too common. He should have chosen one himself and asked them to help spread it.
Suddenly, Shi Hao sensed something and turned his head to look. Unbeknownst to him, there was a woman beside them.
The woman was tall, wearing a black dress decorated with red flowers and a veil that was barely visible. It could be judged that she was a beauty.
Xu Xiaoyan turned her head and sighed: "Aunt Ting, I didn't expect you to be in Daxing City too."
The woman in a black flowered gown, with a graceful figure, slowly sat down on the chair beside her, her eyes as bright as stars.
The moment they looked at each other, Shi Hao and Xu Xiaoyan both felt that their bodies and minds were instantly locked.
Shi Hao understood instantly that the opponent's strength was at least mid-level, with the foundation of sixth or even fifth level, and it was a magic technique.
"You are in big trouble!" said the woman in black flowered gown indifferently.
