"Could it be that it's empty here?" Xiao Chen said doubtfully as he looked at the big tree in front of him, which required several adults to surround it.
He took out the Moon Shadow Knife from the Qiankun Ring and held the handle. The vitality gathered on the blade, forming a blazing sword light that swept towards the thick tree body.
The three-foot-long sword light swept over the big tree supporting the sky. With a crash, the sword light was directly absorbed into the tree and disappeared without a trace.
Xiao Chen put away his sword and stood up, and said: "Does the vitality attack not work? Then use your fists!"
boom!
With a full blow, seven thousand kilograms of force hit the tree trunk. The main body of the branch remained motionless. The power spread to the roots buried deep in the ground, and the entire earth shook.
It still didn't work. Xiao Chen then tried various methods, trying to break open the big tree and get in to check, but all failed.
The more this happened, the more Xiao Chen's interest was aroused, indicating that there must be a cave inside this big tree.
With a slight jump, Xiao Chen flew up to the branch and began to examine it carefully.
Since they couldn't attack by force, they had to find the entrance. The big tree with lush branches and flying leaves made it very troublesome for Xiao Chen to search.
Looking up one meter at a time, time passed slowly. When Xiao Chen came to the top of the tree, he finally found a tree hole that seemed to be the entrance.
The tree hole is extremely secretive, blocked by a pile of dense leaves. If Xiao Chen hadn't been careful, it would have been impossible.
The dark tree hole was just the size of a washbasin and could accommodate a person walking in. Xiao Chen broke off a branch and threw it down. It took a long time before he heard a slight sound.
"It doesn't matter if it's not a bottomless pit." Seeing that the branch had reached the bottom, Xiao Chen no longer hesitated and got in directly.
It was much more spacious after entering. Xiao Chen could turn around and stretch freely. He landed very quickly. Not long after, the soles of his feet were firm and with a sway, Xiao Chen landed firmly on the ground.
Taking out a luminous bead, the dark space was illuminated brightly, and the scene at the bottom immediately appeared in Xiao Chen's eyes.
This is a spacious wooden house, three feet long and one foot wide. There are simple decorations in the room, all of which are very ordinary things.
There is a long painting hanging on the front wall. In the painting, there is a tall man with long hair and black clothes, eyes as deep as water, face as sharp as a knife, standing with his hands behind his back, and a long knife stuck in front of him.
The corners of the man's mouth in black clothes raised slightly, revealing a cold smile. The artist's skill was very high, and the expression of this man was painted extremely realistically.
Xiao Chen felt that this man looked familiar. He took the night pearl and shined it at him. The man seemed to be right in front of him. Under the illumination of the light, Xiao Chen could see this person's face clearly.
After a moment, he said with some excitement, "This is the Sword Emperor, the founder of Tiandao Pavilion and the only great emperor of Tiandao Pavilion."
There is a statue of him on the rooftop. Xiao Chen has seen it before, but he only glanced at it briefly and didn't have a deep impression. He only recalled it after looking at it carefully.
There has always been no consensus on who is the strongest in the history of the Qin Kingdom, but there are several great emperors in the history of the Qin Kingdom such as the Sword Emperor, the Sword Emperor, the first Qin Emperor, the Dark Night Emperor, and the Thunder Emperor.
It is indeed the candidate who is unanimously recognized by everyone. It is a pity that these emperors were not born in the same era and there has been no competition. No one knows who is the strongest.
Some people say he is the Sword Emperor, because he can cut thousands of miles of rivers with one sword, and some people say he is the Sword Emperor of the Jianlan Sect, because he once went to the Great Jin Empire to challenge the contemporary King of Jin.
There are different opinions, but it is undeniable that these people were all extremely powerful men who once stood at the top of the Great Qin Kingdom, and their deeds cannot be annihilated even if tens of thousands of years have passed.
Among them, the Sword Emperor is the oldest emperor. Before the Tianwu Dynasty was overthrown, he had already established the Tian Sword Pavilion and was one of the most influential figures in the Tianwu Continent at that time.
However, this is definitely not the former residence of the Sword Emperor, because the portrait was obviously copied by later generations, and was not painted in front of him.
Xiao Chen withdrew his thoughts and searched around the room to see if there were any clues to find out whose former residence this place was.
A futon in the center of the room caught Xiao Chen's attention. Futons are very common and are used by ordinary warriors to meditate and practice.
Of course, there are some unusual futon soldiers, which are made of cattails that possess spirituality. Some even have some small spirit gathering arrays carved on them. Practicing on them can speed up the absorption of spiritual energy.
Xiao Chen had never used a futon and didn't know much about it. What attracted his attention was mainly the pile of black ashes on the futon.
Looking at the pile of ashes, Xiao Chen had a guess in his mind, but he was not sure yet. He stretched out his index finger and dipped a little bit on the futon.
Putting it on the tip of his nose and smelling it, Xiao Chen finally confirmed what he had just thought. This pile of ashes was caused by a warrior who went crazy and spontaneously ignited, burning himself to death.
This kind of thing is very common for high-level warriors. The higher the level, the greater the chance of going crazy and the more serious the consequences.
Although the world knows the dangers involved, they can't stop. The further they go, the more they feel insignificant and the more they don't want to give up.
call!
Xiao Chen casually waved a wave of palm wind and swept away the ashes. A ring with shining light was revealed on the futon. The word "hatian" was written on the inside of the ring.
"Hate the sky, hate the sky, it turns out it's him." The doubts in Xiao Chen's heart were then solved.
Qi Hentian is a pavilion master of Tiandao Pavilion. His natural qualities are unparalleled. His cultivation has reached the realm of Emperor Wu at a young age. In terms of talent, he is among the best in the entire history of Tiandao Pavilion.
According to rumors, after he passed on the position of Pavilion Master, he began to live in seclusion. No one knew where he went. At that time, his cultivation had reached the peak of the Martial Saint.
It turns out that he ran here to practice in seclusion, Xiao Chen murmured. No wonder others couldn’t find him. This place is really extremely hidden.
By hanging the Sword Emperor's portrait on the wall, he must have wanted to use the Sword Emperor to encourage himself, hoping to enter the realm of the Martial Emperor.
However, these have little to do with Xiao Chen. What he is more concerned about now is what is in the space ring of a martial saint. There should be many treasures in it.
Injecting his spiritual consciousness into the Qiankun Ring, Xiao Chen found three secret books and a soul weapon, which was a long sword at the beginning of the heaven level.
There were a lot of countless spirit stones behind them. Xiao Chen took a closer look and saw that they were all intermediate spirit stones.
Although Xiao Chen once saw a large pile of spirit stones at the mine headquarters, it was still a bit dazzling at this moment.
At the mine headquarters, most of them are low-level spiritual stones, and they can only be used by the eyes, but the rings in this ring are all intermediate-level spiritual stones.
The most important thing is that these are all ownerless things, and now they are Xiao Chen's personal wealth.
Suppressing his joy, Xiao Chen took out the three secret books and the long knife, put the long knife aside first, took out the first secret book and started reading.
Dragon and Tiger Body Shaping Technique!
Xiao Chen slowly recited it aloud. This is a local intermediate-level body-building formula, specially used to exercise the physical body, shape bones and strengthen the body, and enhance a person's energy, blood and strength.
Intermediate earth-level martial arts are extremely rare, and it is difficult to find a few copies even in the Heavenly Sword Pavilion. In this case, the heaven-level skills are not yet available.
The skills at the Earth level are already the strongest, and the skills are rarer than the martial arts. After all, the most indispensable thing on the mainland is various martial arts.
No matter from which aspect you look at it, this Dragon and Tiger Body Shaping Technique is a treasure-level secret book.
The Dragon and Tiger Body Shaping Technique is divided into seven levels. The first level strengthens the body and greatly increases Qi and blood.
The second level is the birth of divine power, which can break mountains and crack rocks.
In the third level, tigers roar in the deep forest, and hundreds of beasts come to court.
The fourth level, the dragon roars all over the world, and the energy penetrates the sky.
The fifth level, dragon sinews and tiger bones, can lift mountains and rivers.
Xiao Chen was overjoyed after reading the above introduction, and said with a smile: "Great, this Dragon and Tiger Body Shaping Technique is tailor-made for me, and it comes from the hands of the Martial Saint, which shows that the direction of my physical training is not the same. correct."
For a long time, although Xiao Chen's physical body was strong, it was not well utilized. He could only attack with brute force in battle. He could not gain any advantage against enemies who used vitality.
You can break rocks with your strength, and others can do the same with their vitality. The difference is not big at all.
But with this Dragon and Tiger Body Shaping Technique, the situation is completely different. Brute force will produce a qualitative change, and you can use your own physical advantages more skillfully.
In battle, achieve unexpected effects and give your opponent a thunderous blow.
The most important thing is that this Dragon and Tiger Body Shaping Technique was obtained from the hands of a peak martial saint, and it was one of the three secret books he brought with him when he was practicing in seclusion.
It shows that this senior, in the last days of his life, also realized the importance of the physical body. If he wants to break through to the Great Emperor, he must improve the quality and realm of the physical body at the same time.
It proves that Xiao Chen's idea of cultivating the physical body is correct all along. The physical body and the realm are indispensable, otherwise he can only stop at the realm of martial saint.
Putting away the Dragon and Tiger Body Shaping Technique, Xiao Chen took out the second secret book and read it. It was a boxing technique called Big Dragon and Tiger Fist.
Judging from the name and the Dragon and Tiger Body Shaping Technique, they should be matched. There are four tricks in total -
The first move, the tiger comes out of the mountain.
The second move is Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon.
The third move is the roar of the dragon and the roar of the tiger.
The fourth move is the tiger leaping and the dragon soaring.
Note: This boxing technique can only be practiced after the Dragon and Tiger Body Shaping Technique has been practiced to the third level. Remember!
As expected, it was a matching martial skill with the Dragon and Tiger Body Shaping Technique. Xiao Chen smiled, picked it up, and then opened the third secret book.
The third secret book is rather strange. It is actually a swordsmanship book called Qiankun Yangxin Sword. It is also a low-level martial arts book.
Sword Technique Xiao Chen just glanced at it and didn't care. He had not yet thought of practicing sword technique.
After looking at three more secret books, Xiao Chen said doubtfully, "It's strange. As the master of the Heavenly Sword Pavilion, the last three martial arts books he left have nothing to do with sword skills."
